Two long RfCs in the past have both closed with total refusal to grand any beauty queen win the status of being a default sign of notability. All beauty queens need to show notability through GNG. One source can never be enough for GNG, and my search for additional sources showed up nothing that would add to notability. The last discussion appears to not have been properly posted and had no participantion, no one actually even argued for keep. There is no sign of notability at all.

- Comment: The subject does receive a considerable amount of coverage in celebrity news.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Not really high-quality or in-depth, but it does demonstrate the possibility that some of the coverage might establish notability per the GNG. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:59, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Hi, this person is a famous DJ from Iran and due to the fact that women are limited in Iran, many of their links are not available on the Internet. Multiple non-trivial reliable sources exist on the suject and are in the article.There are enough reliable sources on this article to justify its existence.I61l99 (talk) 00:03, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment = We have had several recent AfDs on Iranian entertainers in which someone makes the argument that the person is famous but there are no sources because of government oppression. This may very well be true, but that problem is bigger than Wikipedia, and this site should not become an outlet for promoting unlucky entertainers. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:07, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete as cross-wiki spam / WP:PROMO. Jalen Folf (talk) 04:20, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- Procedural Note - There are two namespace articles for this person. The one linked at the top of this AfD, Sani (DJ), is (right this minute) marked for speedy deletion as an unnecessary redirect. The full article to really be discussed for deletion is at DJ Sani. Also note that this person has an album article at Sanix. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:54, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - Note that the first two albums listed in the Discography section are not even by this artist, and their respective articles do not mention them. They have an album article at Sanix which I have PROD'ded. Can find no reliable coverage on this musician beyond the usual self-upload services and retail/streaming sites. The sources used in the article are largely about other people or events with which they were loosely associated. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:07, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Note the article has been moved, and is now at DJ Sani. There's a redirect from Sani (DJ) and Sara Silavi. If the decision is delete, these need to be deleted too. GedUK 15:47, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- speedy delete xwiki hoax and g5 lta. See مهیار مهرنیا Praxidicae (talk) 15:49, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- does anyone know if the person is even real? the uploader cannot be trusted, and most sources cannot be trusted because the uploader spams everywhere. most of the images I find are some sort of photoshop - sometimes to the point of looking like a computer generated image, almost like a "what they would look like today" on a milk carton. Again, which is typical of the people the uploader spams. 2601:983:827F:6B20:F5D5:8BE9:A5:6015 (talk) 19:59, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- In my earlier vote and comment above I figured it was just a weak promo attempt for an unknown artist, but I am beginning to think the whole thing is a hoax as well. For starters, the DJ Sani article uses two different gender pronouns for the same person. Whatever the case, the whole mess will be gone soon. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 01:47, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- I assume that the differences between the he/she references is because of poor translations. I see it often. 2601:983:827F:6B20:F5D5:8BE9:A5:6015 (talk) 01:52, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete -- I was not able to find any reliable sources on this person. Fails WP:GNG. Ealuscerwen (talk) 01:05, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
- Keep -- The problem with sourcing might be a result of Duffy's name: he's mostly known as Bull Stanton - it's his gay porn pseudonym - even among bodybuilding fans. There are many sources that could be used in the article and that could prove his article should not be removed. I will improve the article over the next few days, so please don't delete it.

@AngelOfDestiny: if you have good sources to prove notability I would withdraw the nomination. thank you for your contribute. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 22:36, 1 July 2020 (UTC) hi @AngelOfDestiny:, the sources added so far do not prove any notability. do you have more sources?. thank you. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 08:46, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
What do you mean, they not prove any notability? It's clearly stated that he was: 1) a first widely acclaimed bodybuilder to appear in gay pornography, which is remarkable; 2) the US professional bodybuilding champion - not state-level, nationwide. Also: a widely celebrated fitness cover model, and a well-know 90s porn star. If he was only one of those things, yes, it might not be enough but all things considered he's clearly eligible for a Wikipedia article. Beverly Hills Housewives have their own articles - Christian Duffy is okay, too. AngelOfDestiny (talk) 11:07, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- @AngelOfDestiny: according to WP:GNG, WP:BASIC, WP:ENT and WP:SPORTSPERSON we need secondary sources to state what you say. so far we only have a few primary sources. the idea behind it is that to prove that an achievement is truly relevant we need a secondary source to talk about it. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 10:39, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- @AlejandroLeloirRey: Look, if you want me to find analyses or academic writings on a '90s bodybuilding champion, there's not much I can do. Bodybuilding already is a niche sport. The sources I found about Christian Duffy are pretty much all there is on the internet. It clearly gives all the information anyone interested in him should gather, and if that's not enough, I literally can't provide more. AngelOfDestiny (talk) 14:11, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- @AngelOfDestiny: you said that he was on the cover of a few important magazines, I would than be surprised if none of them has ever written a bio. we don't need much but just a couple of good sources. this is not to satisfy me but to satisfy the guidelines for notability. as I said if you and your achievement are notable someone must have written something about it. this is an enciclopedia after all and if we want wikipedia to be taken seriously and be considered reliable we can not rely on anything but good sources, otherwise the whole project will be considered a joke. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 13:09, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- @AlejandroLeloirRey: He was on the cover of the most important bodybuilding magazines but that was before the internet era. Today that would equal with a series of articles on websites of Flex, IronMan or Muscular Development. But it was before mid-90s so everything remains in those printed magazine - which I do not own. Obviously, I can't win this one; I can't provide any sources you want from me. I still think those given are legit. There are tons of bodybuilding-related biographies on Wikipedia and a lot of them are from the "golden age" of bodybuilding ('70s, '80s, '90s). Most of them have the same type of sourcing like this page and there's no drama involved. AngelOfDestiny (talk) 16:47, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- @AngelOfDestiny: do you believe we can have the exact number or date those magazines were issued? if so we might write to the magazine and try to get a copy of the article. that would take time but i would withdraw the nomination and see if we can prove notability through them... would you be willing to do that? --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 16:09, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
@AlejandroLeloirRey: I can tell you're judging Duffy on a base of his porn star achievements. He did not win any porn industry awards but is notable as a bodybuilder-turned-gay porn actor, and as an athlete he achieved enough to have his own Wikipedia article. US-level champion on behalf of the NPC federation is a big deal and a definitely a notable success. AngelOfDestiny (talk) 11:13, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- @AngelOfDestiny: first of all I am not judging a person but an article and mostly I am wandering if its notability has been proven by the sources. what I need is a in depth coverage of the subject in a secondary source. So far you only gave us sources where the subject is mentioned. this is not enough to prove notability. check WP:SPORTSPERSON --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 09:19, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep -- Obiously an accomplished bodybuilding figure, successful enough to being a cover model for the most important bodybuilding magazines in the United States. Famous for his gay pornography work even among bodybuilding aficionados, and probably the very first athlete of such masculine sports to openly admit both his porn history and sexual orientation (homo- or bisexual). Should be kept definitely. Adriano16 (talk) 11:21, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Adriano16: basing on your personal perception of this subject or on sources? I am tired of people taking AFD as a voting process, we should present facts based on sources not what we think about the subject. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 09:24, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- comment In order to help those who are adding sources to save the article I will give you my opinion about the sources that have been found so far. 1) this is an interview and generally interviews are not considered to prove notability as they are primary sources. nevertheless, this one is a good interview so I believe that it has some weight but it is not enough. 2),3),4),6),7) totally primary sources, they only proves he wan some competitions, this type of sources have almost no weight at all into proving notability. 5) this is only something that someone has posted. 8) this is a very short bio (about 4-5 lines) stuffed with pictures. this has no weight into proving notability. 9) another interview, see 1. 10),11) mere mentions, they do not says nothing about the subject. 12) it's 2 pics of the subject. 13) IMDb is not reliable, this source should not even be used. 13) another interview and it reads "advertisement". now, if you want to keep this article, in my opinion, you should either add more sources or tell why my judgment on these sources is wrong and point out exactly which sources you believe prove notability. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 13:29, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
- comment So far no one showed a reliable source and the arguments for keep are based on the fact that they are sure that somewhere more sources exists. are this type of argument considered here? --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 11:18, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

- @Lightburst: cool, basin on which sources please? --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 20:26, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete None of the sources are sufficient for notability. Neither is the fact that he was on a cover of "the most important" bodybuilding magazines in the United States. Since pictures are not in-depth coverage. Which is required for notability. Plus, notability isn't inherited anyway. So being on the cover of anything, no matter how "important" it is, doesn't automatically qualify someone for an article. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:36, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- comment this article was relisted because AngelOfDestiny said he could find some reliable sources but he needed some extratime. well, no reliable extensive covers of the subject have been shown so far and all the keep votes are based on the fact that "there might be more sources"... might... may be I can fly...--AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 10:16, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

- Weak Keep needs work but not an afd. Not written as an advertisement as per nominator.User:Davidstewartharvey
- Weak delete fails WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. Just because the company exists doesn't mean that it's notable. There's coverage in texas publications like CBSAustin and san antonio press news that doesn't substantiate notability per WP:AUD, neither does a paragraph or maybe two in Dallas magazine. I cannot read the San Antonio Biz Journal, but my guess is that it doesn't substantiate notability outside of the locality, particularly given that bizjournals.com is a domain known because it "churns out press releases and propagates native advertising for companies". Active Life DC doesn't seem to be reliable. The rest of coverage consists of passing mentions like this and this. The BBB profile accredits around 400,000 local businesses, meaning that it doesn't establish notability also. It's unreasonable to think a redirect to a target that doesn't even mention the company would help whatsoever. To meet NCORP I'd expect multiple non-local publications covering it that are unambiguously not promoting the product. The San Antonio Press News is perhaps the best coverage, but it really isn't enough by itself. Eddie891 Talk Work 13:52, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Good analysis by Eddie891 and I would add that none of the references contain "Independent Content" including the bizjournals reference which relies entirely on an interview with company executives. References fail WP:ORGIND as they have no "Independent Content". I am unable to locate any significant coverage with in-depth information on the company and containing independent content, references to date fail the criteria for establishing notability, topic therefore fails GNG/WP:NCORP.

Stub on a Nevada unincorporated community based on GNIS data, which isn't very reliable. Almost all sources mention it in the context of the 1939 City of San Francisco derailment, which took place nearby. I'm not seeing much evidence that there ever was a populated settlement here. Our article on the derailment describes it as a "rail siding", and this 1941 court judgement describes it as a "railroad section crew headquarters". I suspect the railway had something here but that doesn't translate to a community. There's clearly no community there now, satellite imagery just shows a patch of desert next to the railway and a river, with no structures visible. If it's not a populated place then per WP:GEOLAND it needs to pass the WP:GNG and it clearly doesn't. Hut 8.5 19:42, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

The fifth one is actually about Harney, Nevada, but it's a record of a labour dispute and doesn't show anything other than that in 1957 it had a section foreman and a telephone line.

- delete I found a 1950s aerial which shows the station (long gone, of course) but there isn't anything there otherwise, and now there is nothing at all except the railroad and surrounding desert.

The rest of the results were the words "Eurovision" "kind" "of" "blue" separately and not about the band at all.

- Comment This article was kept at afd in 2011 on the basis that it played in an RFU organized league. This is, however, an extremely low bar as most sunday leagues in football and rugby are organized or at least recognized by their respective governing bodies. However, with no guidleine to say that this is incorrect, it is hard to argue against this. Several of the teams that are in the same league also have articles, so if this is deleted, they will have to be nominated as well. This exposes the need for a guideline on whether rugby teams are notable or not, consistent with other sports. AlessandroTiandelli333 (talk) 22:13, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

While well sourced, only one of the sources appears to match the cirteria of being indpendent and substanial coverage about the topic itself ([16]), and even that probably falls into the category of routine sports/news coverage.

THis one is a bit borderline, and perhaps others may be able to get a better picture of it than I. At any rate, there's nothing much there now, nor on topos going back into the 1950s. Searching produces a lot of hits on a soil type, and others that are clearly about the place; but a lot of those refer to it as the Pentz Ranch. I also have to say that Durham's story of the origin of the name isn't terribly plausible, and the Butte County histories are full of people named Pentz. This is right in the middle of the ongoing issue with these GNIS-based articles: I really don't see how we can justify having an article on a place that we cannot describe well, nor clearly characterize.

This is an obscure implementation detail of Bitcoin Core (base58 encoding does not exist in the blockchain). There are no reliable sources, and the IPFS hashes work differently too (see talk page), so it makes little sense to have one article generalizing over both these encodings. The article is currently citing exclusively unreliable sources like the Bitcoin Wiki (not a reliable source since it is an open wiki) and Flickr documentation (self-published). Github cannot be cited either, that is a primary source for the IPFS claims. The book may be citable, but given that the subject is so obscure, I don't think it makes sense to have this article.

It is a valid concept used in software in practice. I do not get an argument that "book might be citable" but that this is not enough. Why not? And obscure? There are 110 packages only on NPM implementing base58. I would not call this obscure? GitHub finds 333 repositories in all possible programming languages. There is a Debian package.

The Italian discussion is actually useful, despite not being based on the English-Wikipedia policies: they concur that as a losing politician for a party so minor that they would not be expected to win even one seat, he is not notable as a politician, with a few of them disagreeing on the basis of his scientific publications. But here, publications alone are not enough; one needs evidence of impact of the publications, and that is lacking. So he fails both WP:NPOL and WP:PROF. On top of which, WP:TNT applies.

The coverage is not enough about her to pass GNG. It is also just plain not enough. It is all focused at one point in time thus boiling down to one event. I have no idea why the last discussion closed no consensus. 2 people wanted a deletion besides the nominator, 1 wanted a redirect, which is funtionally the same as a redirect. The last insisted on a keep on the grounds the Bolivian title is enough to establish notability. We have consistently insisted beauty queens need coverage, they do not get exempted from sourcing requirements on the mere assertion of titles.

Not notable. After it was moved to draft space by another user, the author blanked the draft and recreated the article, so while I normally would move this to draft space to allow it to develop further, not sure that would be productive here. DannyS712 (talk) 12:31, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

- Redirect: to Jio#Jio_apps. It doesn't pass WP:NSOFT, not because there is no reliable and significant coverage ([17], [18], [19], [20], [21] - these could qualify as reliable and significant), but because
Notability is not temporary. Similarly, a burst of coverage (often around product announcements) does not automatically make a product notable.

- Delete, @Rsrikanth05:, are you just pasting reference links from the article? Your second link is dead. Anyway, I went through the sources and I don't think there is any convincing coverage that is not just from the announcement or something. @Rsrikanth05: why do you mention it has received praise? That is irrelevant. It doesn't matter if it is great or not, why do you think that would matter? The only thing that matters is the coverage and if there a sufficient amount. Why do you mention that it was praised by a movement initiated by Modi? That is such an indirect appeal to authority! --Ysangkok (talk) 23:24, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- The link isn't dead. I forgot to put a space between the link and 2. It's very much a live one. Why is it relevant? By that line of reasoning, 80% of Wikipedia articles would be up for deletion because a bulk of the coverage rests on it being given 'significant' coverage. Indirect appeal to authority? That's very silly. Also, no need to ping me twice in the same message. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 09:30, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Non-notable organisation/project. WP:ORG and WP:GNG not met.
As part of a patrol of Category:Ireland articles needing attention, I came across this article. Which had been tagged for "immediate attention" since Feb 2016. I started to look for reliable secondary refs and coverage which could establish notability, and be used to expand the article beyond its current DICDEF format. I couldn't find any. In the newspapers of record in Ireland. Or elsewhere. Or print sources. Or otherwise.
In terms of the subject of the article ("Radharc Archive") a search in the main Irish newspapers returns a single/solitary result from the Irish Times. And zero/none from the Irish Independent.
Considering that perhaps we could move/rename the article to the charity organisation that oversees the archive ("Radharc Trust") I did an equivalent search. I found just 5 results in the Irish Times. And little more in the Irish Independent. None that could be used to establish notability and/or to expand the article beyond a single sentence.
While there are a few trivial/passing mentions of the subject in a few books (including in acknowledgement pages of books which have used the archive's services for research), these only establish that the subject exists. Not that it is notable.
Other than, perhaps this article in a 2015 edition of the History Ireland magazine or this from the Irish Film Institute, I can find little to no sources which cover the subject in its own right. Not to the extent that might be expected for SIGCOV and ORG. Guliolopez (talk) 12:28, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

- Comment. Thanks for that Davidstewartharvey. However, per my note above, those sources (and that content) don't directly related to the subject. The archive. The content (and the sources) largely relate to the original production company. And the charity that runs it. Not the archive itself. Of which there is very scant coverage/sources. Happy to see what consensus arises from this discussion. But, if the result is "keep", then we should consider whether the current title is the correct title for the retained content. Cheers. Guliolopez (talk) 18:02, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete seems to be a rather non-notable soldier. Coverage of the name that I found is in a genealogical publication, national archives entry (for his house), and various listings of promotions, not enough to pass GNG. I'm not aware of anything that makes justices of the peace otherwise notable. Our article Magistrate#United Kingdom suggests there are 28,000 magistrates in the UK (though it's unsourced), so I'm inclined to think that isn't enough alone to establish notability. Our Justice of the peace#United Kingdom says that English JPs "decide on offences which carry up to six months in prison, to a maximum of one year of imprisonment" and says "No formal qualifications are required", and Magistrate (England and Wales) calls them "people from the local community who are not required to hold any legal qualifications", and that they handle "less serious criminal cases" suggesting the position isn't particularly notable. While of course Wikipedia isn't itself a reliable source, I get the clear impression JP isn't notable on it's own. Best, Eddie891 Talk Work 14:21, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

- Weak delete, I found nothing to suggest WP:GNG. There's quite a few mentions in google, but nothing seems to be reliable and/or significant coverage. The variation doesn't seem to be notable at all, so a possible redirect to List of patience games wouldn't make sense. I found almost nothing on Newspapers.com or various encyclopedias. The Encyclopedia of Play mentions "Alaska" in passing as a variation of Solitaire, but goes on to say "Counting all of the variations, the total Solitaire game repertoire is over 1,000", suggesting that just existing doesn't establish notability.

Board Game Geek is likewise an accurate source of information about games. The article uses these sites to establish facts about the game, which are not in dispute.

The concept itself is notable enough for an article that does a much better job than the current form at explaining the concept, the distinction between traditional and greenfield development, pros and cons of greenfield airports vs redevelopment within existing urban boundaries, and so on.

The article notes:
Regular readers of this column know I view most literary awards with a jaundiced eye, but I make an exception for the Colorado Book Awards — because I won one once. Perhaps because of this and knowing very little about the mechanics of the award, I had the idea a while back of nominating Bin Ramke for an award this year for his remarkable “Theory of Mind: New and Selected Poems.” My reasons were simple: I think Ramke is the best poet in Colorado and he hasn’t received the recognition he deserves.
On calling the Colorado Endowment for the Humanities, which now handles the awards, however, I found out this wouldn’t be simple. A very pleasant young woman informed me that in addition to filling out an entry form, there was a $50 fee, and I’d have to provide seven copies of Ramke’ s book for the judges.
...
No argument there, but it still seems as if something called the Colorado Book Awards should have a nominating process that is somewhat more removed from self-promotion and even approaches objectivity. Not that this is the job of the Center for the Book, nor am I the one to tell them how to run their contest, but there should be an impartial way to recognize and celebrate all those fantastic writers Jones was talking about. One happy result of all this, though, is that Ramke’s book did finally get nominated — by his publisher. I have a feeling someone at the endowment may have made a call.

The article notes:
While there are plenty of deserving authors on this list (including Westword's own Teague Bohlen), the absence of one work of fiction has already stirred up debate: Kali Fajardo-Anstine's Sabrina & Corina was snubbed, and some in the literary community are crying foul.
Fajardo-Anstine was Colorado's biggest breakout literary success of 2019. Her collection of short stories was a finalist for the National Book Award and was recognized by Mayor Michael Hancock's office for artistic excellence. It also ended up on plenty of year-end reading lists.
"I am writing in shock at the very conspicuous absence of the book Sabrina and Corina by Kali Fajardo-Anstine from this year’s Colorado Book Award finalists," Arvin Ramgoolam, the co-owner of Townie Books in Crested Butte, wrote in a statement. "In a time when readers recognize that stories from marginalized communities are vital and necessary, this omission is more than an absent minded mistake on a list that is deeply lacking in diversity, it is a concerted effort to sideline an author and further marginalize communities in Colorado, and needs to be scrutinized by not just the literary community, but all artistic communities and financial supporters of the Colorado Humanities."

There were familiar faces and newcomers at the dais as the Colorado Center for the Book handed out its annual Colorado Book Awards Tuesday night in the Donald R. Seawell Grand Ballroom at the Denver Performing Arts Complex.
Longtime author Dan Simmons went home with the award for fiction for "The Crook Factory" (HarperCollins, $24), a tale of espionage based on novelist Ernest Hemingway's real-life desire to run a spy ring out of Havana during World War II.
Former Denver Post business writer Stephen Keating was given the award for nonfiction for "Cutthroat: High Stakes and Killer Moves on the Electronic Frontier" (Johnson Books, $32.50), an inside account of the often brutal, high-stakes battle for market share between cable and satellite companies in the telecommunications industry.

THis is a test run for a much larger tranche of California place stubs which were copied into WP from Durham's California's Geographic Names: A Gazetteer of Historic and Modern Names of the State without reference to other sources. In this particular case, a look in GNIS shows it to be the "Fort Ann Mine" (GNIS entry), so it's clearly not a notable community or even a community at all, but that's not the point. The thing is that there is a great deal of labor to be wasted in going over each of these and fishing for sources and either not finding anything or finding that it's not a community. I'd rather nominate the lot of them as gazetteer dumps and let someone recreate them individually if real material can be found.) Mangoe (talk) 20:25, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

The article notes:
In Washington State, for example, the Seattle Youth Garden Works (SYGW) program offers employment opportunities to youth, aged 14 to 22, who are homeless or involved in the juvenile justice system. The streets of Seattle are home to an annual average of 800 youth who do not have a permanent residence and are susceptible to dropping out of school, drug and alcohol use, and other exploitations (J. Dilworth, personal communication, 2008). Since 1995, SYGW has employed young, homeless people at one of two urban farms to develop job and social skills and help them find more stable employment or return to the school system. For some youth, the chance to work in a market garden or sell their produce at a farmers' market is the kind of life-altering experience that can turn it all around. The success stories are inspiring and positively impact not only the youth, but the communities in which they live. However, managing the day-to-day operations of this organization and overseeing the market garden poses sizeable challenges to the SYGW staff.
The focus of SYGW is youth development, but the vehicle for delivering their program is the urban market gardens in the University District and South Park neighborhoods of Seattle. This concept of pairing social programs and market gardening has been employed in several cities where urban agriculture is often part of bigger projects aimed to reduce poverty, increase food security, and provide employment and education opportunities for at-risk groups including the homeless, pregnant teens, former prisoners, and others (Feenstra et al., 1999; Kaufman and Bailkey, 2000). The staff of SYGW is well-trained to work with homeless youth; however, a good youth counselor is not necessarily skilled at growing vegetables or direct produce marketing. To help with this imbalance of knowledge, SYGW contacted cooperative extension state specialists from Washington State University to assist in developing intensive production and marketing plans for the Marra Farm market garden in South Park. This case study is based on the plans developed for SYGW by WSU specialists in agricultural economics, horticulture, and soil science.

The book notes:A Brief History of Seattle Youth Garden Works
Seattle Youth Garden Works was founded in 1995 and fiscally sponsored by the Church Council of Greater Seattle. The program started as a volunteer landscaping project to address the needs of homeless youth in Seattle's University District. The program developed its mission to empower homeless and underserved youth through through garden-based education and employment and grew to having paid staff and offering wages to qualifying youth, offering multiple 12 week employment opportunities during the year. By 2006, youth grew produce at two Seattle-area gardens, one in the University District and the other at Marra Farm in South Park and providing fresh produce to area food banks and selling harvests weekly at the local Farmers Market.In 2009, the Seattle Youth Garden Works advisory council decided to suspend operations due to financial challenges. Under the leadership of Executive Director Andrea Dwyer, in 2010 Seattle Youth Garden Works became a program of Seattle Tilth, fitting well into Seattle Tilth's array of programs and mission to inspire and educate people to safeguard natural resources while cultivating an equitable and sustainable local food system. The addition of SYGW supported Seattle Tilth's expansion towards production-scale agriculture, green jobs and social justice programs. Seattle Tilth was able to offer an existing organizational infrastructure to quickly re-launch and stabilize the program.
Volunteers provide essential support for Seattle Youth Garden Works. The number of volunteers typically changes depending on the season but there are usually around 12 volunteers at any given time. The volunteers serve as mentors to the youth and assist in other programmatic ways. To become volunteers for the SYGW, mentors go through a Seattle Tilth screening process and also receive program specific training. Additional volunteers help with harvest during the spring and fall when the youth crew isn't able to come in the mornings due to school schedules.
Seattle Tilth partners with over 20 organizations to ensure the success of Seattle Youth Garden Works. For example, SYGW partners with Goodwill to provide program participants with job readiness and resume training. They also partner with Boeing Educational Credit Union, which provides financial readiness classes including banking 101, budgeting and credit information.

The book notes:
Seattle Youth Garden Works, a program of Seattle Tilth is an after-school job training and education program for youth who are homeless or at risk of dropping out of school, and the community farm is their outdoor classroom. Participants are paid a modest stipend to plant, grow, harvest, and sell their produce at local farmers' markets, all the while acquiring meaningful experience in urban agriculture. For many, it is their first exposure to nature and gardening, not to mention personal responsibility and teamwork. Participants spend half their time working at the farm and green market stand and the other half in classes focusing on nutrition and business and leadership skills. The farm is adjacent to the University of Washington's Center for Urban Horticulture; it is a nonthreatening, green sanctuary where gun violence and the temptation to engage in deviant behavior are absent. Enthusiasm for gardening may be perceived as being "uncool" in their home environments, but when at the farm the youth embrace it, and their shared endeavor unites them. Deep and unique bonds of trust form between group members, strengthening self-identity and building confidence and sense of mastery. Staff and mentors not only instruct the youth but serve as role models, providing guidance, connecting them to housing and social services, and troubleshooting problems to ensure they stay in school. The mentoring and support the youth receive may be the critical component that transforms their lives for the better.

The article notes:
The garden is the brainchild of Margaret Hauptman, a part-time graphic designer who got together with several University District organizations this spring to create a small oasis for troubled teens in a neighborhood beset by street kids and the tensions over their presence.
The fruit of their labors is the Seattle Youth Garden Works project at the University Heights Center at Northeast 50th Street and University Way. The project is sponsored by the Church Council of Greater Seattle's Task Force on Housing and Homelessness and the University District Youth Center.
Seattle Youth Garden Works is designed to teach social and entrepreneurial skills to street kids - teens who often live in transitional housing or come from troubled homes where violence and abuse is the norm.
...
Thus, with funding from United Way and Seattle's Summer Employment Program, the Seattle Youth Garden Works project was born.

But for the homeless and at-risk youths working in Seattle Youth Garden Works, life is full of welcome ironies. Being outdoors, they say, helps them stay in school. Tiny plants make them feel taller, and hard labor yields pride.
...
Seattle Youth Garden Works employs and houses eligible low-income young people ages 14 to 22, using garden-based education to redirect the lives of those who have taken a hard left from Eden.
...
Eight years ago, it provided employment for 18 youths at one site; now the two-site program employs 50. It could expand further with more donations, thanks to a public service campaign announced earlier this week by Seattle-based advertising company Ad 2.

The article notes:
The article notes Margaret Hauptman is the program's originator.In a world where there are few opportunities for advancement, a small group of street youth in the University District have found hope in a heap of dirt.
They are taking part in the Seattle Youth Garden Works, a seven-week employment and educational program designed with street youth in mind.
Yesterday, eight of the 15 current youth workers spent the morning preparing a radish and lettuce garden at a plot next to the University of Washington's Center for Urban Horticulture.
The kids who participate in the Garden Works are, in some way, disconnected from home and family. Most either live on the streets, sleep at homeless shelters or stay at youth transitional homes. Some have problems with substance abuse.
That 3,500-square-foot plot, then, is both figuratively and literally a nurturing foundation, a place that promises new life.

The article notes:
The Seattle Youth Garden Works, one of several programs honored yesterday by the King Conservation District, gives homeless young people who want to get off the streets a chance to gain work experience by growing their own vegetables and flowers and selling them at a farmers' market.
In the winter, participants make wreaths they sell at holiday fairs.
Throughout the program, participants also receive employment counseling, help getting a place to live, occupational therapy screening and job placement assistance. The Church Council of Greater Seattle, which sponsors the project, pays $5 an hour to participants who also split the profits from their sales.
...
Since the program's inception nearly two years ago, Hauptman boasts about a 70 percent success rate, meaning most of the program's graduates go on to find jobs and places to live.

Yesterday, as he stood near the Best in Show gold medal he helped win for Seattle Youth Garden Works, a non-profit that turns homeless and impoverished kids into accomplished gardeners, Squirrel admitted he was caught off guard by this recent success: the group's and his own.

Show organizers said it was astounding that a non-profit with a few low-paid staffers and a crew of young people with troubled pasts could win the Founder's Cup at the prestigious garden show, the third-largest of its type in the nation. It was Garden Works' first-ever entry.
...
To the people who work in Seattle Youth Garden Works, beautiful gardens are not all they are trying raise. The organization, with offices in the University District and South Park, annually accepts 60 people between 14 and 22 years old who have had problems with poverty and homelessness.
The youths are taught to work in the growing, marketing and selling of the plants cultivated by the organization. A few of those, like Squirrel, are offered a one-year internship. He said he found out about the organization while getting his GED through a youth services organization in the University District.

The article notes:
At Seattle Youth Garden Works, disadvantaged kids ages 16 to 22 learn life and job skills and earn money by growing vegetables and herbs and selling them at local Farmer's markets. Their display garden at last year's Northwest Flower and Garden Show--rows of corn, carrots, fennel, and European pears garnished with primroses and a hand-painted mural--vanquished flashier and more professional displays. The judges were wowed by the authenticity and charm of the nonprofit's first-ever entry and awarded it Best in Show.
Seattle Youth Garden Works is part of the thriving community gardening scene in and around Seattle. And Seattle's community gardens--from subsistence farms to butterfly borders--are part of a nationwide trend toward urban havens where the sowing of vegetables and flowers reaps a harvest of shared purpose.

The article notes:
In a Nutshell: Seattle Youth Garden Works (SYGW) provides job training through garden-based education and employment. Youth grow organic produce and sell it at local farmers’ markets and garden fairs, and to a small number of local restaurants.
Youth work after school hours for 10 to 20 hours a week, earning a wage and a share of the profits. The initial program lasts 12 weeks, with a few youths continuing in leadership positions as “lead youth gardeners” for up to one year.
...
Who Started it and Who Runs It: Margaret Hauptman founded SYGW in 1995 because she wanted to provide jobs and training for homeless youth in the University District. She had become aware of the disenfranchisement of street youth while she was volunteering at a drop-in center.
The organization is headed by Director Janice Dilworth, who oversees an urban farm and an employment development manager, an AmeriCorps manager and five AmeriCorps volunteers. SYGW uses about 300 additional volunteers each year.

From left, Joey, Trung and Brandon work in a greenhouse at Seattle Youth Garden Works, which trains homeless and at-risk youth through garden-based education and employment.
...
That something was a program sponsored by the Church Council of Greater Seattle that teaches homeless and at-risk youth how to raise organic crops to sell at local farmers' markets. Darvell says that Seattle Youth Garden Works is more than a job or learning about gardening: "It's not just growing plants, it's helping to grow yourself. It's life-changing."
In the spring, the program's young participants can be found seeding kale, carrots, chard and tomatoes, and rooting the young plants. Though Darvell describes his favorite part as the farmers' markets where he sells the produce, there is also the work on native plants.
...
Through the eco-education found at Seattle Youth Garden Works, the lives of couch-surfing or runaway youth are stabilized as they learn about nature within a community that believes in them.
- comment Something like "Journal of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Education. American Society of Agronomy." is great for information accuracy, but it is highly specialized resource tailored to those who specifically go research something in the narrow field of discipline, so sources of this nature is no pass on WP:AUD for the purpose of establishing notability under WP:NORG. Graywalls (talk) 07:48, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
- WP:AUD says:
The case study published in the New York-based Springer Science+Business Media book meets the WP:AUD requirement that "at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary".The source's audience must also be considered. Evidence of significant coverage by international or national, or at least regional, media is a strong indication of notability. On the other hand, attention solely from local media, or media of limited interest and circulation, is not an indication of notability; at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary.
Cunard (talk) 08:23, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
- That's one way to look at it, but, I'm looking through the lens of "limited interest" per WP:AUD "on the other hand, attention solely from local media, or media of limited interest and circulation, is not an indication of notability" (the underline in quote added by me). Source as an authoritative area on the specialized interest which can extensively discuss obscure things of little general interest is different from being extensively discussed in the spotlight of a widely circulated general interest publication, which is what is being sought for the notability establishment purpose.

- Keep – Meets WP:ORGDEPTH and meets WP:AUD, as per a source review. I consider the Seattle Post-Intelligencer to meet the requirements of WP:AUD. When it was a print publication, its circulation included all of King County, not just Seattle (source, from 1962). As such, this qualifies as regional coverage. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer has since changed to an internet-only format, but that does not automatically mean that its reach has all of the sudden shrank to exist only within Seattle. Irregardless, Seattle Post-Intelligencer articles such as this published about the topic in 1995 were published before the newspaper went to online-only in 2009. I'm unable to access the Springer Science+Business Media source in entirety, but per the "Sources with quotes" box atop, I consider three decent-sized paragraphs specifically about the topic to comprise significant coverage.
- I noticed that both of the delete !votes above after the nomination appear to be basing notability upon the state of sourcing within the article when it was nominated for deletion (diff). However, notability on English Wikipedia is not gauged by the state of sources in an article. Per WP:NEXIST, "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article" (bold emphasis mine). It is unclear whether or not these !votes are also based upon source searches, because they do not state if said searching occurred.
- It is important for notability guidelines to be applied correctly and accurately, rather than basing notability upon a simple conflation of an article presently lacking verification. This is why WP:BEFORE-style, due diligence source searches prior to !voting is important, and should be performed. While it is important that articles are properly verified, a lack of verification being present does not mean that a topic is then somehow automatically non-notable.

Rapper has received no significant and reliable coverage to meet the notability requirements for biographies or musicians. The most robust source I was able to find is in a publication called Simply Bhangra (already cited twice in the article), which is merely a three-sentence announcement of a new song. Otherwise the rapper can only be found in the routine retail, streaming, and social media services. The same is true of his apparent hit single "Oh Soniye" and his record label Sikboyz Music. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 01:51, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

Extremely outdated article on a never-built shopping mall. Existing sources are WP:LOCAL, 404, or both. No other development has occurred here since, and the name has completely evaporated from use other than the street that the theater's on.

The result was redirect to 2020 Green Party of Canada leadership election. NPOL sets a standard that can seem a bit higher than GNG but that reflects the fact that campaigns are often the subject rather than the individual. Over the years, the community has supported the case that multiple unsuccessful candidates either have to win something or we cover them in the campaigns. Once all these arguments were aired and the article.relisted there was no disagreement with this argument. Spartaz Humbug! 21:41, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

WP:BLP, referenced entirely to primary sources with no evidence of reliable source coverage shown at all, of a person notable only as an unsuccessful candidate for political office. As always, this is not grounds for a Wikipedia article in and of itself -- but this article demonstrates neither that he had any preexisting notability for other reasons independently of the candidacies, nor a credible reason why his candidacies could be considered more significant than other people's candidacies. And while there is a "this article may be expanded with text translated from the corresponding article in French" tag at the top, the French article is just a very short stub with nothing to actually translate that isn't already here and citing no sources at all, which means it's deletion bait over there as well.

- Keep - achieves bare notability between some recent coverage of a controversial policy he proposed to combat racism, and significant WP:ABOUTSELF info that can be used to build the article into something more than just the campaign. I think a very narrow GNG pass is in effect here. NPOL is for politicians who fail to meet GNG, not some super extra special guideline that also has to be met. Even if that weren't the case, I don't care, because in that case it's clearly a rule detrimental to building the encyclopedia and should be ignored. People expect Wikipedia to contain information about political candidates. Wikipedia seeks to be the biggest repository of free information in the world, and people have come to rely on it; it's often hard to find info about candidates, and most people would reasonably expect candidates for office to have articles. He's also run for god knows how many elections, making him a perennial candidate which can in itself create notability in certain cases. This is also a pointy nomination (see here, CTRL+F "WP:WAX") and should be speedy closed for that reason alone. −−− Cactus Jack 🌵 05:34, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- NPOL is not "for politicians who fail to meet GNG". We don't always do a very good job of actually finding and using all the sources necessary to write a substantive article that looks like the person passes GNG, but that's not the same thing as the person actually failing GNG — NPOL-passing politicians always pass GNG, and we just aren't always on the ball about doing the work to make their articles good. That's a "lazy Wikipedians" problem, not a "the people don't pass GNG in the first place" problem.
- And a brief blip of coverage in the context of announcing a policy proposal during a leadership race just makes hima a WP:BLP1E, not a person who has attained permanent notability yet. We are WP:NOTNEWS: we consider the enduring notability of potential article topics, not just their temporary newsiness: our job here is to look past the daily news and sort out what information is still going to matter in 2030, not just to indiscriminately keep an article about everybody whose name happens to have shown up in the daily news cycle one day.
- And also, WP:WAX is not WP:POINT. There's nothing disruptive about responding to a WAX-based argument by listing the named WAX article for a deletion discussion — WAX literally says that that's one of the standard responses that people should expect to a WAX-based argument. Bearcat (talk) 06:22, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:GNG worse than most, as the only potentially qualifying coverage is the fact there was a documentary film made about one of his campaigns - the review of the film in the article focuses solely on the filmmaker, and not on Perceval-Maxwell. The rest of the article is his CV, a couple Facebook posts, routine election results, a National Post article about a Green Party debate, and a press release which doesn't even mention him. The French language article has zero references at all and is unhelpful. On top of WP:PROMO concerns related to the fact he's a current candidate, which was the reason why this article was created, this is a clear delete. I also want to address a point made above - there is no way at all this is a pointy nomination, as Bearcat generally does an excellent job at bringing articles that need AfD review to our attention and has for a long time. That accusation must be retracted. SportingFlyer T·C 06:30, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- I will not retract it, because it is correct. In fact I will double down. Bearcat's crusade against politician articles is one of the worst things I've seen at AfD. He gleefully misuses policy, lawyers it to mean the opposite of what it plainly says, and bludgeons the process with his walls of text of randomly italicized words and meaningless blather. Wikipedia would be far better off if he were topic banned from AfD, or even desysopped or sitebanned entirely. I'm done here. I'm not going to waste my time on a failed encyclopedia run by deletionist zealots like him. −−− Cactus Jack 🌵 06:44, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep and Topic Ban User:Bearcat from AFD nominations - It's a very pointy nomination,
as it's clearly vengeance for another editor pointing out the nominator's lack of competence in the Annamie Paul AFD,and a quick WP:BEFORE shows lots of other articles relating to this environmentalist's similar activities, such as his hemp business, and his famous car that ran on discarded deep-fryer oil from fast-food restaurants (even I remember that one - and a good "Do you know" candidate). I've added several more references to the article, some routine, but some meet GNG, such as the 2005 Montreal Gazette article, the 2009 car articles, the 2008 piece on his hemp business (did User:SportingFlyer see these?) The nominator really should withdraw this nomination. This nomination meets the speedy keep criteria 2 (created for disruption). Though it's also clear that the mandatory BEFORE checks were not done.

- I looked at the article as it stood at 06:30 and you updated it with a single new article afterwards, which isn't really significant coverage in my book as it was a late 2000s blog post. I do not think the mention that his car runs on cooking oil is enough to make him notable or is considered a separate "event" considering a quick search shows his notability stems mostly from a single documentary with one review or the fact he's standing to be the leader of the party, which is a candidacy. The claim for WP:GNG is exceptionally weak even for candidates, who we expect to receive WP:GNG and that's why we've carved out the exception. You also need to consider your response.

- Fair enough - I'm not sure when you looked at it. There's three articles referencing the car ... and I certainly remember seeing reports about it, there was significant media coverage of him and the car at the time. There's significant coverage about his Hemp business. And there's significant national coverage about his candidacy for leadership a major federal party ... it's not like he's running for Senator in Red Neck, East Dakota, and just retired as a schoolteacher with no profile.

- Delete. His political activity, while a noble endeavor, does not meet the guidelines for notability Wikipedia:Politician. The fact that there are newspaper articles that cover his candidacy is irrelevant to the criteria that running for elected office in of itself is not notable. While there is a documentary, the subject of that is the campaign which would warrant either special detail in the article about that election OR the documentary itself. The articles covering his activism do not have him as the subject. Rather he is simply "one of the proponents," of biodiesel.

- Delete per WP:BLP1E and redirect to 2020 Green Party of Canada leadership election - the only thing he has ever done that meets any of our inclusion criteria (and that just barely, media have hardly covered it) was to be expelled from the Green Party leadership contest over racist remarks, and it's inappropriate to center a BLP around such an incident (it's already described in as much detail as is necessary at the election page). The rest of this is the biography of a perennial candidate who hasn't ever really even come close to winning an election, and a generic "businessman" wiki-resume otherwise.

This article is basically a WP:COATRACK for a not very significant spat. The subject himself is flagged as an actor but with no significant roles, aYouTuber but with no evidence of significant coverage, anbd a blogger but with no evidence of any reach or significance. Two "awards" are listed, they are not notable (the "golden palm" is not the palme d'Or). Overall this is a BLP1E fail - even the 1E is not much. Guy (help!) 07:44, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
- First of all, out of the two awards that you mentioned at least one is notable. The Golden Butterfly Awards is given by Hürriyet and takes both people’s votes and judges’ opinions into consideration, thus making it an important award ceremony in Turkey. The fact that national newspapers such as Milliyet and Habertürk and news agencies such as İhlas News Agency have articles on him makes him even more notable. And the article itself is balanced in the way it approaches the topic, as it also discusses allegations of copyright violations by him which were reported in the Turkish media. I wish you had done some research on the subject before going on with the nomination. Keivan.fTalk 07:57, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keivan.f, the voting system doesn't make the award notable. Popular <> notable, see WP:GNG. Guy (help!) 11:28, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
- Obviously it doesn't. We have tons of awards that use this system, but this ceremony appears to be among the most notable ones in his country.

As news organizations report the news, they don't become the news so there is rarely going to be news stories about them. Thus, I used citations from reputable news organizations like The Washington Post and Entertainment Weekly who sourced this news organization. Being cited from top news sites shows the trustworthiness and legitimacy of a news site. I added these after the article was marked for deletion as I was trying to follow Wikipedia's guidelines exactly. As the founder of the news site is a filmmaker who has two award winning films listed in Wikipedia (Thoth documentary and Your Mommy Kills Animals), that also seemed to give this article the legitimacy needed. If more is needed, please let me know as I have literally spent years trying to better understand Wikipedia's rules. Thank you ~ Gooma2Gooma2 (talk) 19:36, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

*Treker, what coverage are you seeing? While it's true that the site has been mentioned in some reliable sources, WP:GNG is very clear that passing mentions do not contribute to notability. The sum total of the coverage in the Entertainment Weekly source is a credit for one picture [46] and I don't see where the Washington Post article even mentions it at all (maybe the author pasted in the wrong link?) [47]. Their content being used by major sites may indicate that they are "trustworthy and legitimate", but it doesn't indicate that they are notable according to Wikipedia's standards if those sources do not discuss the website in depth. Notability is not inherited from being founded by a notable person, either. Spicy (talk) 23:12, 4 July 2020 (UTC)
- The question of inherited notability (the Founder of site) was not the sole reason for the article being notable. It was only yet another factor. As the not inherited states, "notability not being inherited is not by itself grounds for deletion."Gooma2 (talk) 21:34, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

- Strong keep I have confirmed with the photo editor at Entertainment Weekly that it is actually three (3) photos they have used from the subject. I also confirmed with the journalist at The Washington Post that they have sourced the site and he did not post in the wrong link. He was more perplexed at the thought of Wikipedia questioning the veracity of The Washington Post's reporting. Twelve more respected source citations have been added to the article proving 'notability' as per Wikipedia's standards which states, "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article." WP:GNG I have been more than confused that I have repeatedly asked for help in making this article fit exactly into the Wikipedia standard but have gotten no answer. I have used my husband, who is a contract lawyer to scour the language, and he is not seeing how this article doesn't fall within the standards set in Wikipedia.

The first two (based on google translate) are both about Loures's purchase of a house in which to do recordings, and lack any significant coverage. The third more closely approaches SIGCOV, but seems a bit short of qualifing -- in any case it is only a single source. The fourth confirms an award, but says nothing else. I don't know how significant that award is, but I doubt it establishes notability on its own. Should additional significant reliable sources be presented, this view may be considered canceled as far as any such sources are concerned. I have not searched for additional sources myself.

De-PROD'd. Original PROD rationale: Although there are several cited sources, none of them are suitable indicators of notability per WP:NORG/WP:GNG. None are substantially about the subject, and some (like the Seattle PI sources) don't even mention it. On a WP:BEFORE search, I found a few small articles from Seattle papers, but nothing from outside the region, meaning that the sourcing falls short of WP:AUD. It's likely that Tyree himself is notable, but the sourcing just isn't there for the school.
De-PROD'd by Grand'mere Eugene with this rationale: Article needs wokr, but sources are available, inclucing 2018 Seattle Times and 2006 Seattle Post Intelligencer pieces.
As my original PROD rationale mentioned, yes, Seattle-based sources do exist. But WP:N and particularly for organizations WP:AUD make it clear that local coverage alone does not suffice when it comes to supporting a claim of encyclopedic notability. There must be sufficiently significant attention by the world at large
– and how do we assess that that attention exists? Non-local sources, of which I found none. In the absence of sources that support a claim to notability, we cannot retain the article as a standalone. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 10:40, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. When I de-PRODed this article, I listed 6 sources covering this subject on the article's talk page. Of these, The Seattle Times has the largest circulation of any newspaper in the Pacific Northwest region (almost 230,000 daily, 330,000 Sunday), and it has won 11 Pulitzer Prizes. It is second in circulation on the West Coast only to The Los Angeles Times. It is definitely a regional paper. Since WP:AUD specifies
at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary
, The Seattle Times easily meets this criterion, and its article is substantial. Regarding this article from the The Seattle P-I, The Seattle Times was the P-I's main regional competitor until the P-I became an online-only publication in 2009. The remaining 4 four sources I listed are indeed local, with the International Examiner serving mainly an Asian and pan-Asian audience, an important audience for this topic. I agree this article needs work, but since these sources do exist, and sinceNotability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources, not their immediate presence or citation in an article
, it should therefore be kept. Cheers! — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 18:53, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

- Keep -- General superintendent of the Church of the Nazarene is the highest elected office in the Church. This is the equivalent of archbishop in denominations that have bishops. He held that post for 25 years, though overlaping with other holders of the post. If this were a minute denomination, it might be different, but I do not think that applies here. The problem with this article is that so far we only have a brief stub. This is a denomination with 2.6M adherents. The difficulty is that we do not have his full names, so that it may not be easy to locate sources on him. Peterkingiron (talk) 00:02, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

- Delete – Fails WP:BASIC, and English Wikipedia presently provides no presumed notability for religious subjects in its notability guidelines. My own source searches are only providing name checks and passing mentions (e.g. this article), and primary sources, none of which establish notability. Note that the the subject also goes by the title, "Dr. V. H. Lewis", but source searches including the title, including various customizations in searching, are providing more of the same, along with a few snippet views of primary sources such as those from the Journal of the General Assembly, which is published by the Church of the Nazarene, General Assembly. Simply put, the subject does not meet any notability guidelines to qualify for an article. Name checks, fleeting passing mentions and primary sources do not establish notability.

- In reply to JPL and others -- Yes - Keep despite the dearth of sources, but retain tags for lack of sources. We should assume good faith by the creator. There is enough detail for it to be unlikely that this is invention. If we knew a forename, it would be probably possible to locate an obituary. The alternative is to delete the article and leave him having a red-link is the list of general superintendents, but that represents destroying what may well be correct info. I contest Northamerica1000's assertion that he was not notable. He is notable because of the office he held. The problem with the article is the lack of sources; this shows he was a general superintendent; and he is also mentioned in this and this. All seem to be internal publications of the denomination and thus not independent, but LA Times reported his retirement, and is surely WP:RS. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:26, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
- His full name was Voyle Herbert Lewis but it seems he was known as V. H. Lewis. I find what appears to be a paid for death notice, on a genealogy site[48] (about nine paragraphs down), presumably a copy of what appeared in the Olathe Daily News on 14 November 2000 (unfortunately, I cannot access any archives to confirm this). This supports a few of the facts but does not constitute ‘significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject’. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 08:22, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- P.S. Someone might want to look him up in 'Who's Who in America. 39th edition, 1976-1977' or 'Who's Who in Religion. Second edition, 1977', though I think these are not considered reliable sources? --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 08:34, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. I found a book source that has V. H. Lewis as "general superintendent in jurisdiction". Holiness Abroad: Nazarene Missions in Asia p.182 Here's another link to the Oklahoman, 1982. On this website you can also find pdfs of his articles in print magazine, which addresses him as "general superintendent". And apparently he appointed this other guy as district superintendent. I will update the article accordingly. Awsomaw (talk) 13:56, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. I found another article from the Oklahoman that confirmed much of the other information in the article. Awsomaw (talk) 14:09, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

The reputable source Wall Street Journal references Classic only in passing, according to David Gerard (see talk page). Therefore, the subject does not fulfill the general notability guideline.

There may be some information worth merging into the Georgi Markov article, but there is no real information known at all about the alleged umbrella, even whether the dropped umbrella that Markov reported was definitely the means of injection. Kevin McE (talk) 17:52, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. This goes well beyond Markov's case. The article needs some work but the number of interwiki articles, and their citations, makes it clear that this is a real thing and sufficiently notable. --Lockley (talk) 18:46, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

- Rename to Poisoned umbrella. There is clearly enough material about poisoned umbrellas in general to support an article, but no evidence that the term “Bulgarian umbrella” is generally used at all. Of the four sources provided, the first three do not even contain the term “Bulgarian umbrella”. The fourth source is a brief listicle piece that is definitely not a reliable source.

- Keep: I see the term "Bulgarian umbrella" used in the following sources:
- Kostov's 1988 book, The Bulgarian Umbrella: The Soviet Direction and Operations of the Bulgarian Secret Service in Europe
- The Global Investigative Journalism Casebook ed by Mark Hunter for UNESCO (2012)
- A Spy's London by Roy Berkeley and Rupert Allason, Pen & Sword Books (1994)
- Communication in Eastern Europe: The Role of History, Culture, and Media in Contemporary Conflicts ed by Fred L. Casimir, pub by Lawrence Erlbaum (1995)
- I believe that this demonstrates notability. — Toughpigs (talk) 19:45, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep (alternatively rename to Poisioned umbrella) in addition to the coverage listed by Toughpigs, I found

The ‘Bulgarian umbrella’ turned into a synonym for cold-blooded, well-organized, and deadly operations, particularly those associated with socialist state security services.

- A very eclectic mix of sourcing, for sure, but these make it clear that the topic is discussed, and the term is used. Some of the sourcing is specific to the 'Bulgarian Umbrella case', but the term 'Bulgarian umbrella' has been widely used and the case widely discussed.

The article fails the Notability guidelines for songs in Wikipedia as not only none of the three bullet points in the guidelines are met, but also there is not a single "subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label." Furthermore, in the links, there is one interview with the artist "This excludes media reprints of press releases or other publications where the artist, its record label, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the work", which is the case of Elicit as it clearly states on the site that is a press release. The "One to watch" source is under a discussion for being unreliable, See here as it published under Live Nation umbrella, so it is biased. There is only one source that is reliable "Variance", however, it should be multiple according to the guidelines above, which it is not the case. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 00:17, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

A song is not notable just because it was released as a single. It needs to become a matter of reliable media coverage in its own right.
