Murder of Janet Brown

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

Deletion is necessary per WP:NOTNEWS. While there is some sustained coverage due to a financial reward offered by the family, it's not clear to me that coverage is anything more than routine for other murders that reach the standard news cycle. 4meter4 (talk) 17:33, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Passes criteria 1 of WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG based on the sources already in the article. A staff written bio in AllMusic, multiple album reviews in both AllMusic and Pitchfork, and an in depth article in the Philadelphia City Paper is all quality RS to meet these guidelines. Further, there is likely much more press in publications like The Philadelphia Inquirer for those who have subscription access to their archives to find. Not sure why this was nominated. The notability tag could have probably been just removed if one bothered to look at the sources.4meter4 (talk) 18:54, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Vinay Vashisht

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

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a record producer, not reliably sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The notability claim here is that he was presented with an unnamed "certificate of appreciation" by Canadian provincial and federal governments, except that I can't find hide nor hair of any Canadian media or government sources actually stating such a thing at all -- the sources for it seem to come entirely from either his own self-published PR, or Indian sources that read very much more like the media outlets in question just hook-line-sinker reprinted his own press releases rather than doing any actual journalism to verify anything. So if I can't even find legitimate verification that an award even exists, then it clearly can't be a notability-clinching award for the purposes of NMUSIC #8 -- and there just isn't any other serious notability claim being made here at all beyond "he exists as a person who has a job".

Linda Danielsson

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

WP:BLP of a smalltown municipal councillor, not reliably sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NPOL #2. As always, municipal councillors are not deemed "inherently" notable enough to get automatic inclusion in Wikipedia just because they exist -- at the local level of office, the notability test is the ability to write and source a substantive article demonstrating a credible reason to treat her as much, much more notable than the norm for smalltown municipal councillors by virtue of her political impact. But there's no real substance here above and beyond "she's a municipal councillor who exists", and the references are two primary sources that are not support for notability at all, and two very short media blurbs about her which aren't substantive enough to get her over the bar all by themselves if they're the strongest sources on offer. And the Swedish article is even more weakly sourced than this, and doesn't feature any new sources that could be pulled over to make a difference (the only footnote that isn't already here appears to just be a census document rather than a notability-building source). Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have much, much more sourcing and substance than just stating and verifying that she exists.

List of stock characters in military fiction

Complete failure of WP:OR, almost wholly unsourced -- and tagged for both for a dozen years and more -- and there've been those advocating deletion for over a decade. High bloody time.

Keep It's easy to find sources for this stuff – a selection of various types follows. Our policy WP:ATD therefore applies: "If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page." See also WP:NOTCLEANUP. Andrew🐉(talk) 23:12, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Other than your first source -- Some Dude's Website -- in not a single case do you identify where in these books this concept is discussed, WHETHER these books discuss the concept at all, where the archetypes set forth in the article are discussed, where said archetypes are defined, or what consensus in reliable sources is about them. All you've thrown up here is a bunch of random Google hits. Ravenswing 01:02, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ravenswing: I don't think 1. is "Some Dude's Website". www.wearethemighty.com by their own description are a "digital publisher and media agency". For what it's worth, they are currently used as sources on some Wikipedia articles. Media Bias/Fact Check reports here that We Are The Mighty is a news service and states: "Overall, we rate We Are The Might Least Biased based on minimal political editorializing. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing and a clean fact check record" i.e. did not so far fail a fact-check. For 2., the interesting part starts a p. 32 at the first new paragraph and continues, as far as I have seen, to p. 36. Daranios (talk) 19:51, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the sources provided by Andrew suggest this is a notable subject. What is needed now is to incorporate these into the article as inline citations. NemesisAT (talk) 23:22, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. RS completely lacking. Using a list to evade BASIC should not be supported. Yes they are all war fiction cliches, but to have a page would require serious academic writing on the subject, rather than just an OR collection. Mztourist (talk) 04:09, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Only one of Andrew's sources is applicable. The Brontës are a particularly bad example~~, seeing as they preceded films of any sort by about half a century~~. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:46, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Clarityfiend: Why is the fact that the Brontës' work precedes film an argument against that source being useful here? This list, after all, is not about stock characters in military film (even though some of the secondary sources deal with that), but in military fiction. Daranios (talk) 19:51, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, the Brontës are renowned for their pugnacious prose: Jane "Rambo" Eyre, War-thering Heights. Clarityfiend (talk) 05:23, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Clarityfiend: Ah, I see your point now. However, it seems based on the title of that book only. I also don't think the Brontës' work is military fiction (though that secondary source assures us there are a number of military characters in it). But that book also discusses their inspirations, which do include military works. I can't say how much there is because I can see only very limited previews. But e.g. p. 34 has "Paul Jorgenson emphasizes that... the common soldier provided a 'comic substratum' for serious plays [it seems to me The Incompetent Enlisted Man is one sub-type of "the common soldier"]... Shakespeare is known for his humorous military characters..." So there is at least something that is useful for our subject here, it's not just a "random Google hit". Daranios (talk) 10:41, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not really; that's a casual mention at best. It seems we're talking two different issues here. I don't dispute that one could likely -- with proper sourcing -- come up with a Stock characters in military fiction article. But this isn't that article. This is a list article, requiring the legwork necessary to write the parent article, AND sourcing each and every entry to this one. That work hasn't been done, and other than Dream Focus' contribution, no one's attempting to do it. Ravenswing 02:18, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ravenswing: The guidelines make it very clear that a deletion decision should not be based on the current status of an article (WP:CONTN, WP:AtD, etc.), assuming that it can be improved. I am convinced it can. As I said, this is a volunteer project, so noone specifically is responsible for doing any specific work, and there is no time limit for when improvements have to be done. Or in other words, noone is any more responsible for improving here than you. Tell you what, let's work together to solve your objection "That work hasn't been done, and other than Dream Focus' contribution, no one's attempting to do it." If you are willing to work on it, I'll shift my priorities and will, too, given some time. What do you think? I've done a bit of a head start by sourcing one part of one stock character type. Daranios (talk) 10:57, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Perhaps the tropes exist but the article is based solely on original research considering no significant coverage has been given to the topic. – DarkGlow • 07:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom and Mztourist. There's no evidence that this topic has received any significant attention outside of Cracked style listicles. I can't find anything better than what's been presented and, since that is just a grab-bag of google hits to partial text matches dumped here to try to dismay other participants with volume over substance, I think my standard of scholarship is a bit higher. I mean, I like TVTropes and I like Cracked style listicles sometimes but Wikipedia is not the place for this largely OR agglomeration. Reyk _YO! 08:30, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as WP:OR. The current version is unsalvageable. Geschichte (talk) 21:43, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Found this: https://www.britannica.com/topic/Capitano Searching there for "stock character" and military or soldier might have more results. Are there any college textbooks for actors and/or writers that list stock characters? Dream Focus 20:05, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Of the sources found by Andrew, 1. gives an overview of different types and 2. discusses the "pervasive typology of character in military fiction" from pages 32 to 36 with examples, that should be exactly what Reyk is asking for. Other secondary sources can at the very least contribute to individual stock characters. Additionally, the book Beyond the Stars: Stock characters in American popular film from p. 146 onwards gives a detailed discussion of the subset of stock figures within the - according to that source imporant - group of non-commisioned officers. Together, these should be well enough to satsify WP:GNG or WP:LISTN.

Now the claim of original research is serious, but can it be solved? Sure, it can, one just needs to do the work and do a proper WP:BEFORE search for the individual entries on this list, if any secondary sources can be found on all the recommended channels. That way, original research can either be disproven, or rendered probable and the respective section removed. So it is indeed a case where editing can improve the article. That that has not been done for a long time is unfortunate, but well, it's a volunteer project here. Thus it is for good reason that there is no time limit on tags (given that they can be solved), and that "nobody has been working on it for a long time" is listed among arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. Maybe those editors most annoyed by the current status would like to take it upon themselves to do this work? Daranios (talk) 19:33, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kudos to Daranios for taking the trouble to dip into the sources that I listed. I'm not sure how far they got but, from what I saw in my browsing, all of those sources have some utility for this topic and some of them are excellent, as Daranios explains. The contrary opinions above seem worthless because they have not done this work. Andrew🐉(talk) 21:38, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Huh. You admit you haven't examined your sources? What actual "work" do you claim to have done here? WP:OR is a core content policy. You cannot just allege that unexamined sources support your claim; you must be prepared to defend each and every entry on that list with a specific inline citation carrying a verifiable page reference. You further know full well that the onus is not on editors advocating deletion to prove such references do not exist. The onus is on those advocating keeping the material to prove that they do. Ravenswing 02:11, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No, in these discussions, the one person who has a specific duty to conduct a detailed source search is the nominator. Per WP:AFD, "The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects." As the nominator does not seem to have done this, they are in no position to criticise those who have stepped into the breach. Andrew🐉(talk) 13:26, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As pure WP:OR. Regardless of the potential notability of the topic, I cannot see the current article being kept. WP:HEY applies if someone does manage to rewrite it properly._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 08:34, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Another relevant secondary source: The Image of the Military Officer in Films Concerning the Vietnam War - unfortunately I cannot access it, but this other secondary source Images of War and War of Images on p. 134/136 tells us that, and lists/briefly discusses some types.

Oh, and to all "there is nothing worth retaining opinions", please be aware that some improvements have been made since the deletion nomination. Daranios (talk) 10:57, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Daranios has made a good start. The classical archetype of Alazon is thousands of years old and was a stock character back then. The page just needs more such work to make something of it and deletion is not cleanup. Andrew🐉(talk) 11:33, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment List of stock characters in science fiction and List of female stock characters were merged into List of stock characters. Some references have been found for some of the entries in this list. Of course most of the entries on the other list don't have references either. Searching for the names of the examples and "stock character" might find more coverage. Dream Focus 13:12, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - clearly a case of OR and and SYNTH. The assessment by Ravenswing in both the nom and in response to suggested additional "sources" are spot on. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 14:04, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Onel5969: Weird, did you actually read into "The Military Novel", p. 34-36, as an example? What do you think of it as a source discussing the topic? And how is Ravenswing's response to These are the 12 characters in every war movie "spot on" in light of the new evidence brought up about about that site afterwards? Daranios (talk) 18:57, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Military stock characters are certainly a thing. Which things should be on the list is an act of normal editing. I have found and added references to some things, as have others. Dream Focus 19:33, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Stereotypes of animals

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

The page is a mess of WP:Original research. Having been tagged as OR since 2008, it has also been semi-protected for a full five years! The page is severely undersourced and drifts off topic more often than not. One user has done a heroic job on weeding out faulty entries, but there is just so much of it. For instance, see the "fearsome, terrifying Tyrannosaurus". Why would this true characeristic be a stereotype?

If anything, the information belongs on each animal's individual article. Geschichte (talk) 21:56, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

comment About Tyrannosaurus: I've deleted all dynos right after your nomm. As I've noted in several edit summaries, a huge lot of items were not stereotypes, but stock characters, such as fearless chipmunks of friendly wolves. Lembit Staan (talk) 00:53, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

kepp, a valid subject, whoe existence is easily verifiable. The poor state of an article is not a reason of its deletion, but for cleanup.

Keep - I really like this article and is WP:INTERESTING but I can see why editors have had issues with sourcing, writing and maintaining it. The introduction certainly needs work and sourcing to get rid of the WP:OR. It is an enourmous topic and the use of "stereotype" clearly doesn't help things. However, WP:AFDNOTCLEANUP. The article clearly meets WP:LISTN with sources treating this group ranging from the academic ([1] [2] [3] [4]) to the popular ([5] [6]) (First sources I grabbed but there are many). It is really such a huge topic I don't think this page will ever be much good without a massive amount of work sadly - but it's not a reason for deletion.

Merge to Rygnestadtunet. The legend itself written from an in-universe perspective, so to speak, is not very interesting, and any writing about Åsmund should thus focus on the cultural significance. Much of the current article should be WP:TNT'd. As it turns out, "Vond-Åsmund" is mentioned in at least 62 books, such as a passing mention in the biography on Jørgen Moe; he is mentioned in general Norwegian history books written by Ståle Dyrvik and Øystein Rian, a geography book by Werner Werenskiold, tourist books, cultural histories of Setesdal and Southern Norway, in Olav H. Hauge's diary, as well as in old general-purpose encyclopedias Norsk allkunnebok and Gyldendals store konversasjonsleksikon - among others. The latter encyclopedia, though, has Vond-Åsmund down as a soft redirect to Rygnestad. So why not do the same here? (although WP:NOTPAPER.) Geschichte (talk) 07:42, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As the author of this stub, I would like to oppose its deletion. I believe that Nabis meets the notability guideline; the company has been profiled in mainstream media such as Business Insider, Reuters, Forbes, and TechCrunch, each of which is footnoted in the stub.

These sources provide significant coverage of the company beyond a mere trivial mention. Here are two examples: https://www.forbes.com/sites/frederickdaso/2020/11/04/nabis-raises-10m-to-take-the-cannabis-industry-to-a-new-high/?sh=ff0290a38729 (this is a journalistic news article, not sponsored content) and https://www.businessinsider.com/nabis-cofounders-california-cannabis-distributor-microsoft-facebook-engineer-2021-5.

The second sentence of the stub says, "The company is one of the largest business-to-business distributors of cannabis in California." What makes California important? According to https://www.businessinsider.com/marijuana-cannabis-distributor-nabis-raises-23-million-series-b-california-2021-6, it's the biggest cannabis market in the U.S.

Delete The company distributes beer and Italian cookies? Looks like a fake company, based on the links in the article. I don't see notability. Oaktree b (talk) 01:07, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, regrettably. I'm here despite strongly disagreeing with all the other "delete" !votes and wanting to !vote "keep". Given a credible claim of significance being present when it was tagged via "one of the largest business-to-business distributors of cannabis in California" and a reasonable claim to meeting the general notability guideline, it is very clear that the CSD was not appropriate, contrary to what a !voter above claims. As for Oaktree b's claim of a "fake company", perhaps they're confusing the company with Nabisco?
As for the merits, it unfortunately does not meet the companies guideline. Prior discussions from the community found that Forbes contributor sources are generally unreliable, while there is no consensus for the reliability of TechCrunch and Business Insider. Given that and the fact that the coverage in Reuters and the Wall Street Journal is not significant (a few sentences), the company is not sufficiently notable.

Timo Rost (boxer)

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

My before search found significant coverage in German, however, the reason I've brought this here is because significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article. Yes, I believe (I only checked one of the German sources) the subject does indeed pass GNG, but I'm here to raise the question of why this subject merits an article. As far as I can tell, Rost's biggest achievements are reaching the semi-final of the German national championships as an amateur, and as a professional, winning an insignificant regional title in 2019 and losing to a former world champion the following year. So, let's just ignore GNG for a second (after all, significant coverage is an assumption that a subject merits an article)...what actually makes this individual notable and worthy of inclusion? ².O.^Boxing 21:21, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I created the article after concluding a research on Rost in which i was able to pick some good reason why i think this article should not be deleted first of all rost is a professional german boxer and quite popular in germany and other country Beckyrose233

@Beckyrose233: I don't doubt Rost's popularity, but popularity isn't the same as notability. What is it that makes him notable? Being a professional boxer is not noteworthy. – ².O.^Boxing 23:34, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Squared.Circle.Boxing: as I said, I think rost has gained recognition in the boxing industry and for that, I think he quit notable am not even from Germany and I believe have watched a couple of matches featuring rost he has amassed popularity and notability status for him self in the last couple of years Beckyrose233

@Beckyrose233: he definitely doesn't have recognition in the boxing industry; his only real achievement is winning the WBF International title. The WBF is not considered a notable organisation and the International title that Rost won is not listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Boxing/Title Assessment. Additionally, he's never been listed in any of the rankings (top 10, 15, or 40) by the organisations listed in criteria 3 at WP:NBOX.

Again, I do presume he satisfies WP:GNG, however, in situations such as this I think it's more than reasonable to have a discussion (beyond "passes GNG") to determine what actually makes this individual worthy of inclusion. – ².O.^Boxing 13:23, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question/Comment Where is the coverage that shows he meets WP:GNG? I did an admittedly quick check, in English, and found lots of routine sports reporting and promoting but little that convinces me the WP:GNG is met. It's clear he fails to meet WP:NBOX, so meeting WP:GNG becomes important. I think that if GNG is met, then the question of why he's notable is a bit irrelevant because, in my opinion, the world at large would have indicated he's WP notable and that trumps any editor's viewpoint. Papaursa (talk) 21:48, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Papaursa, your comment just reminded me of the very first statement at GNG, Wikipedia articles cover notable topics—those that have gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time (bolding mine).

So, the sources I found are in German. The results I get in a standard German-language search all relate to a single fight with Felix Sturm, which received wide coverage in Germany, but basically WP:1E. When amending my search to "before:2020", I get results like: Westdeutsche Zeitung, Rheinische Post, Remscheider General-Anzeiger. I stopped there as I'm using Google translate and am on a mobile device (terribly tedious), but they're outlets that serve the North-Rhine Westphalia region of Germany, so the coverage doesn't appear to be by the world at large after all. I believe this is comparable to a subject only receiving coverage in the Yorkshire region of England or New York State, which I don't think satisfies GNG. – ².O.^Boxing 23:09, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: it's a WP:COATRACK listing unrelated incidents in which Canada was criticized. Many of the examples given are trivial (a line from a sitcom), out of context (Voltaire), hyperbolic (Ann Coulter), or satirical (Blame Canada and Canadian Idiot).

Delete per Cornellier clearly a WP:COATRACK listing of unrelated incidents.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 02:44, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to repeat User:Future Perfect at Sunrise's rationale from this similar AfD:

Articles like this are legitimate only in cases like Anti-Semitism where there is a substantial body of academic, third-party literature that discusses the phenomenon as such in its entirety (as opposed to simply individual events described as "anti-X'ist"). Otherwise the synthesis of such events constitutes WP:OR. Legitimate information pertaining to individual historical situations can be integrated elsewhere, for instance in articles on "History of X" or "X-Y relations".

In addition to Allan (2009), already referenced in the article, I found two more possibly usable sources on a google books search:

Brunet, Michel (1969). Anti-Canadianism and Anti-Americanism in the Cultural and Political Tradition of the American and Canadian Peoples: Lecture Given at the University of Delaware ; Contemporary Canada and the Double Challenge of the United States' Continentalism and of the Quebecois' Nationalism.
Morissey, Ronald S. (1968). American Attitudes Toward Canada, 1815-1854. University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Note that all three of these seem to focus on the US with regards to "anti-Canadianism". So far I'm not convinced there's a "substantial body" so my preference at present would be to merge notable incidents, such as the Saudi one, into bilateral relations articles, and redirect this title to foreign relations of Canada. If someone can demonstrate that there are more sources available whose primary topic is "anti-Canadianism" I may be convinced to change my vote to keep. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 08:53, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete/selective merge Almost none of this is actually a cohesive topic of anti-Canadian sentiment, just different content synthesized together. In popular culture: all complete satire of the fact that nobody actually hates Canada so it's funny when people do. Domestic section: silly that this is the longest one, and I don't think it's appropriate to conflate Quebec nationalism with First Nations criticism with political complaints about policies. Incredibly inappropriate that irrelevant nonsense like "Conservative activists Steven Crowder, David Frum, Jamie Glazov, Ezra Levant and Mark Steyn have repeatedly criticized Canada's policies." was restored to the article when deservedly removed. Anti-Americanism doesn't need to include domestic criticism of our own government or culture. The diplomatic issues are also isolated events that aren't tied together as deep-seated sentiment against the Canadian people. Reywas92^Talk 14:12, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:BIO in any event clearly states that an aggregate of references is a sufficient satisfaction of the criteria or significance for inclusion. However, I contend that there is sufficient direct reference to him and other aspects of mention in the article that satisfy the criteria on their own One of many links attached to the article clearly references him solely, for his role in representing the massacre victims. The individual is an important figure in this aspect of the war historiography https://www.sunnewsonline.com/nduka-eze-and-original-members-of-asaba-october-7/ The subject is a significant figure on the subject of representation of massacre victims, and ample reference to his role is contained in the references. The peripheral mention you cite is in respect of the Hirst case, which is not the sole basis of his inclusion. I strongly urge you to review this intended deletion He is cited significantly as Counsel to the massacre victims in links in the article, which is a highly significant role within the context of Nigerian Civil War History, of which I am a subject expert. Can I urge you once again to review the links. This article is neither promotional nor advertising.

I have added hyperlinks to the Asaba massacre and the Oputa Panel, in which he represented victims and survivors. This was one of the most important outcomes in Nigerian Civil War history - in that a State authority was compelled to acknowledge acts of unlawful violence against civilians. The victims, and their families number in 100's of thousands and the case was reported not just broadly in the Nigerian press but also reported in several global reference texts globally. I respectfully restate that there is nothing trivial about this event or indeed the individual responsible for the outcome i.e the subject of this article

For those without access, I'll attempt an overview. The article discusses the fact that Toronto's animation studios have never been busier and a bigger push should be made to reduce the amount of work being sent overseas. Various companies are name-checked including their current project(s) and in this vein, Kennedy Cartoons is mentioned and their current project is described.

Keep The article meets the General notability guidelines. All 3 issues mentioned by the IP user/ edit is wrong. Written like an ad is too broad and too generic statement about articles.

Hi @Maryam CNA, I understand that you strongly disagree with the deletion of this article, but I would kindly ask you to assume good faith and read the relevant policies I have linked, before casting aspersions on me without reason. Such statements are personal attacks, and repeated violations may lead to a block.

I have no intention of misleading you with any of my edits. Other editors, such as John B123 at Talk:Mohammad_Tiregar_(Artist)#About Elly, have mentioned the lack of significant coverage on the subject in the sources you cited. I assume you have read this, since you then removed the comments without explaining why. The image deletion message was placed by a bot, because the images used on that article were taken from Tiregar's twitter page and not taken by you. This is a separate matter not related to the article's deletion. I apologize for any misunderstanding I may have caused, but I recommend you take another look at the general notability guidelines before you make your next reply. Thank you. Yeeno (talk) 🍁 21:32, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Yeeno: I did not insult you. According to Wikipedia rules, any article can be expanded and improved.

Maryam CNA (talk) 21:45, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Maryam CNA: Thank you for understanding. According to WP:EDITATAFD, you are encouraged to improve and expand the article while it is nominated for deletion, by addressing the points raised by other editors. The key thing I am concerned with here is that there is no significant coverage of the subject in the sources you cited.

Searching "That's What He Said" with a variety of keywords such as Greg James and Podcast yields almost no results.

- Here's my review of the sources:
  1. Sabmilega.com appears to be some kind of web directory filled with misspellings and odd capitalizations, and has only a couple of sentences about this terminal. Doubtful as a reliable source.
  2. https://www.telegraphindia.com/west-bengal/siliguri-eyes-traffic-revamp-before-festive-season/cid/1828706 This article] from The Telegraph (India) is a reliable source, yet has barely one sentence about this terminal: "Other proposals include shifting some buses to the PC Mittal Bus Terminus in Sevoke Road and developing a new bus stand at Tinbatti More on the city's southern tip."
  3. This article from The Statesman (India) is also a reliable source but has less than one relevant sentence: "The administration plans to shift the parking area (at Siliguri Junction) to Paribahan Nagar in Matigara, while buses running between Siliguri and Jalpaiguri will depart from the PC Mittal Bus Terminus."
  4. This article from The Telegraph (India) also contains less than one relevant sentence: "'Private buses bound for Calcutta and Bihar will be shifted to Paribahan Nagar, (in the northwest end of the city) while buses running between Siliguri and Jalpaiguri will depart from PC Mittal Bus Terminus (which is in the northeastern parts of Siliguri),' the chairperson said."
  5. 1001things.org does not appear to be a reliable source.
  6. This page is from a corporate web site discussing the corporation's corporate social responsibility projects, and is promotional rather than an independent source. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:17, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep.Actually I think people are having a hard time judging his notability because of the different name. It looks like everyone is searching "Sam Reklaw" which on google brings up recent PR mainly to do with film and little to do with racing.

People need to bear in mind that his real name is Sam Walker, and that's the name he raced under, also the races were in Latin America, so they are in Spanish. This search (google colombia) brings alot of hits and his name is in alot of them, also alot of hits on google images here What an admin mentioned above "finished first! of two people" I looked at the result and he actually finished 1st of 4 people IN CLASS. but overall 3rd out of 27. Whether that can be considered "good" or not is pretty irrelevant because we have no idea know what rules and regulations that they race under. The fact still remains that he does meet WP:NMOTORSPORT because he raced in imporant national championships, and the most prestigious race in the country - 6 Hours Bogota on 3 occasions and achieved respectable results.

Roy (Fire Emblem)

AfDs for this article:

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

As much as I am a fan of Fire Emblem, there are some characters who simply aren't notable, and Roy is one of them. Since my warnings were ignored/removed several times about this being non-notable, I have no choice but to nominate for AfD.

Roy is notorious for being in Smash Bros. and... well, that's kind of about it. Since his game was never localized, very few in the Western gaming press have ever analyzed his character from the standpoint of his appearances in the actual game he was in. The parts of the reception about his Smash Bros. appearances are also trivial mentions and listicles, and the reception overall is heavily WP:REFBOMBed with little substantial coverage.

Is the stuff about his Smash Bros. appearances notable enough to mention in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade or even Fire Emblem? Sure, but this does not merit a standalone article on Roy. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 07:49, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The nominator is essentially saying that they are a fan of the Fire Emblem series, so therefore, they are in the best position to be a gatekeeper and judge what topics in this area is or isn't notable, or whether it should get a standalone article on Wikipedia or not. I note that no definite argument was ever advanced based on an analysis of whether the sources meet WP:GNG or WP:SIGCOV, only passing allusions or handwaves to trivial mentions; while we can all debate on whether the content from the article's cited sources constitute WP:SIGCOV, many of the sources cited in the article make a credible claim of significance with regards to the character's real world impact. Why is it relevant that the game the character starred in was never localized, when his first appearance was in a Smash game, which makes a case that this character is perhaps more closely associated to the Smash franchise then any other Fire Emblem character? Since the nominator indicated that they started this AfD because their "warnings" about notability were ignored by multiple editors, I conclude that this is a purely subjective WP:IDONTLIKEIT nomination on what the nominator thinks should be notable, and is not a valid rationale for deletion under this site's deletion policy. I also note that this page has already been reviewed by a NPP editor, so if there truly is an objectively insurmountable issue with notability or significant coverage, I'd expect this article to be redirected or AfD'd at the first instance as part of the NPP reviewer's patrol activities. Haleth (talk) 08:42, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The point of me mentioning that "I am a fan of Fire Emblem" is showing that I WANT this page to be kept, so there simply needs to be presented evidence that Roy is notable. So far that has not been shown in this AfD, only vague assertions that he's probably notable, but the sources just need to be found. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 19:21, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That does not change the fact that your nomination rationale is not rooted in existing policy or guidelines, but a subjective opinion of what should be notable. AfD is for article for deletion, not article for dicussion. AfD is for when you genuinely believe that the issues with the extent of sourcing for the topic, not simply confined to what is found on the article, is insurmountable. Your claim that you want to keep this article, by nominating it for deletion, is frankly contradictory, and also deletion is not cleanup. Since you claimed that you actually want this article to exist or to fix it somehow, per WP:ATD it would be more appropriate had you simply voiced your concerns on a talk page about the removal of your notability tag by another editor. When multiple sources like Shacknews have articulated the historicity within the industry behind the character's introduction in Melee, clearly attributing it as the reason why the Fire Emblem series is released outside of Japan in the first place, when the publisher's original intent was to promote an exclusive domestic release of a game that is never localized as you have pointed out, I don't think these assertions are at all vague as you are saying. As Daranios have noted, quoting WP:WHYN, there is adequate material to write a short article here. Haleth (talk) 23:49, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop with the disruptive WP:Wikilawyering (specifically the part about "Asserting that the technical interpretation of the policies and guidelines should override the underlying principles they express"). I think it's fairly common sense to see that my argument is that the page is not notable, i.e. that it fails WP:GNG, even if I did not spell it out. My statement that "I want to keep the article" does not mean that I think this article should be kept even if it had no notability whatsoever. It was in direct response to your assertion that since I didn't like the character, I was nominating it for deletion (which is false.) _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 00:14, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I take umbrage to your allegation that I am being disruptive. My response is directly addressing your original rationale, which specifically did not articulate an argument based on WP:GNG or that you have done a WP:BEFORE, lack any proper source analysis but instead focuses on the lack of localization of the game the character starred in or the alleged sparseness of opinions from western critics, or how the claims of significance made by reliable sources are trivial mentions at best. I never said anything about you not liking the character, that is irrelevant, my quote of WP:IDONTLIKEIT refers to your subjective opinion that an article about the topic should not exist based on your personal experiences of the series. I note that you made a point to bring up the fact you are a fan on your own initiative, and using the same common sense principle you are asserting, that appears to be the only underlying principle expressed by your nomination rationale. I suggest that we agree to disagree, and let the community decide whether your original AfD rationale, or that your subsequent arguments should be accepted based on an appeal to our collective common sense, is justified.

Keep There is a fair-sized, referenced reception section there, so this should satisfy WP:WHYN and therefore WP:GNG. What would be the benefit of deletion? Daranios (talk) 10:43, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Whether "there is a fair sized reception section" is not what we are arguing here, it is a question of the quality of the sources which are almost unilaterally trivial in nature. One cannot simply dredge up literally any mention of a character and call it significant coverage. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 19:17, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Zxcvbnm: I agree that significance cannot be built from trivial blocks. But it can be built from non-trivial information, the length of the individual sources is a secondary concern. And I'd say if a character is well or badly received and why is not trivial information because, well, that's the heart of a Reception section. And as another example, if a character is a cause for a game to be released internationally instead of only nationally, seems rather important to me, too. Daranios (talk) 07:30, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Some of these sources are just terrible. There's an entire half-paragraph about "sword fighter character archetypes" where the subject isn't even mentioned in two of the three sources and the last one simply lumps the character in with several others. It seems like half the rest of the reception sources are just trivial mentions from character ranking lists. This one in particular is one I would describe as absolute trash, "The only Roy we want to see in Smash is Roy Koopa Jr., the Koopaling. Who is this sad fraud supposed to be? He’s not even a turtle!" Taking a fluff joke and trying to rewrite it as a critique shows the lack of substance in this article. TTN (talk) 11:07, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Certainly a noteworthy character. His inclusion as a fighter in the Smash Bros. series alone already makes him one of the more well-known videogame characters by default.

I apologise that I can't spare enough time to do this, but frankly the character of Roy would seem so obviously noteworthy to me that if WP:THREE were somehow not satisfied in this case, I'd be more inclined to understand this as a failure of WP:THREE than of Roy.

Keep The Shacknews and Destructoid pieces are good enough for me, so that's two satisfactory sources. I'd also like to point out that WP:THREE is an essay, not policy; all policy requires is "sources," which I believe is satisfied here. Mlb96 (talk) 05:36, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:THREE is an essay, but the principle behind it is a policy. While the Shacknews article is probably the one best source, the Destructoid article is a simple listing of his combat moves in a game he isn't the main character of. So if that's really the 2nd best source, it obviously doesn't pass WP:GNG. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 07:29, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see how the use of this source is any different then this writeup, also by a Destructoid writer, which currently occupies an entire paragraph in the reception section for Corrin. If we examine both writeups together, I suppose the key point to take away are the author's personal opinions about the characters, not the walls of gamecruft text that dominates the articles' prose? Also, Mlb96, Daranios, I have since added a couple more sources to the article and cleaned up the prose further. Let me know what you think. Haleth (talk) 08:09, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to List of Fire Emblem characters or a relevant section. The reception series begins with "Roy's appearance in Melee, alongside Marth's, introduced the Fire Emblem series to players outside of Japan. It was in part because of his inclusion that Nintendo began localizing and releasing Fire Emblem games internationally, beginning with the seventh title in the series". This got me curious re the sources. [10] just mentions him in passing twice, once saying he is the main character, once mentioning his father's character.[11] mentions him seven times, but the coverage is not significant, it just confirms such a character exists and was 'new' at some point in the franchise history. [12] is even worse, which leaves [13]. That one is fine, but is Official Nintendo Magazine independent here? Most other refs are either not independent or contain passing mentions. [14] is in-depth - if we can call three or so paragraphs in-depth - but it concerns only his appearance in one game. In the end I am seeing no reliable in-depth coverage, this is just a humanoid Pokemon like a dozen we merged and redirected in the last few weeks. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:59, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No dedicated article covering a List of Fire Emblem characters exist on Wikipedia. There is no suitable merge or redirect target since the identified sources clearly establish that the character is independently notable, though the aggregate coverage from English sources is a tad short on character analysis. That is still not an issue as the article's present content is lengthier then what we would typically consider to be stub-length. Haleth (talk) 08:42, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I don't see how article creator User:MilborneOne has a COI here (nor other editors involved in the article). This is an increasingly popular information for aerospace (see NGRAM with the rise from their 2006 foundation). There are used significantly by others as can be seen in google scholar, filtered google news (-flightglobal.com), and google books). This is one of these situations in which finding sources is made difficult by the sheer amount of sources that are citing and quoting FlightGlobal.--Eostrix (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉) 11:44, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - the article creator is a Wikipedia admin and editor with decades of good standing and not in a COI as falsely claimed above. An apology is clearly warranted for that accusation. The article has third party refs and meets WP:GNG. As noted in the article, the subject of the article won a major award, so clearly notable in aviation and journalist circles. - Ahunt (talk) 12:06, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: @LukeWWF: I see you have amended your COI claim above to now indicate major WP:COI in that FlightGlobal Marketing is a major contributor of this article. I would like to point out that this is also false. While User:FlightGlobal Marketing made two spammy COI edits to the article when it was first started, they were immediately reverted and their current net contributions to the article are exactly nil. You can note they were also blocked from editing in 2016 due to Promotional username, promotional edits. - Ahunt (talk) 19:59, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: Correct, I updated my comment for clarity. If you conduct a LinkedIn search for staff at FlightGlobal and reference users editing this article you will see a major COI over time. MilborneOne may be the creator but he is not the COI I am referring to. I was hoping those replying to this AfD would do some due dilligence on ALL contributors. Thank you. LukeWWF (talk) 21:44, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: Please read the current actual article text - it is neutral and factual, there is no COI text there now, unlike for one day in 2016 as I noted above. There is no valid COI argument to be made for deleting this. - Ahunt (talk) 22:37, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: as originator of what is an article on a major and respected online aviation website to complement printed works from the same organisation it clearly passes notability guidleines. The COI issue has been delt with by others above. Not really relevant but of the 16 deleted articles (out of 1730 I have created in 15 years) none relate to similar organisations or websites so a bit misleading and hardly relevant.

Footballer that has had an article since 2007 but only seems to have played in the semi-pro Korea National League, which is not listed at WP:FPL. Only English result in searches is his Transfermarkt profile, which doesn't confer notability and has one cup appearance, which doesn't meet WP:NFOOTBALL requirements as at least one team involved was not playing in an FPL. Google News Korean search and DDG Korean search both return a lot of results but it's all about unrelated people with a similar name. Most results appear to be about a UFC person.

Redirect To 2021 Afghan protests per my original edit. The article doesn't have enough to stand on it's own and this part of the larger protests in Afghanistan since the Taliban took over. The grievances of the protesters is over Pakistan's support for the Taliban not just the fact this is it's own anti-Pakistan protests. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 14:19, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Afghan protests are specific to Taliban rule, while anti-Pakistan protests are specific to Pakistan's interference in Afghanistan. They are different than each other. Both subjects have got significant amount of coverage, independent of each other. GenuineArt (talk) 17:40, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The protests are taking place in Afghanistan for the reason concerning Afghanistan's latest debacle. They are not individual protests. They are part of something larger. The protests are against the Taliban and it's supporter, Pakistan. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 18:12, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Shankargb and also per my rationale above. GenuineArt (talk) 17:40, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – article doesn't meet WP:EVENTCRITERIA as there is no historical significance of these protest and topic doesn't have WP:DEPTH coverage. Artt also doesn't meet WP:GNG due to lack of WP:SIGCOV and reliability of sources can be further argued (reliability of Indian sources about Pakistan and vice versa is nearly zero; they usually publish highly politicized and propaganda info to please their audiences). WP:RAPID doesn't really apply here. Editor arguing WP:RAPID, need to look at WP:DELAY too. Radioactive (talk) 19:38, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Abdulhaseebatd:} I am sure an undisclosed paid COI editor like you has no knowledge of the policies you are citing. The subject meets all criteria listed at WP:EVENTCRITERIA. Existence of sources like Al-Jazeera, SCMP, IranIntl, and other thousands of sources providing significant coverage to this subject on frequent basis easily debunks your entirely misleading misrepresentation of sources and policies.

Delete or redirect to 2021 Afghan protests fails WP:EVENTCRITERIA. No evidence of notability. Thepharoah17 (talk) 05:45, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Thepharoah17: It meets every single criteria laid out at WP:EVENTCRITERIA:

Criteria 1: "Events are probably notable if they have enduring historical significance and meet the general notability guideline, or if they have a significant lasting effect." It meets "general notability guideline" and WP:LASTING since it is getting significant coverage for months.[17][18]
Criteria 2: "Events are also very likely to be notable if they have widespread (national or international) impact and were very widely covered in diverse sources, especially if also re-analyzed afterwards (as described below).": With Al-Jazeera, SCMP, Iran Intl, Hindustan Times, and many others covering the subject, this is a no-brainer.
Criteria 3: "Events having lesser coverage or more limited scope may or may not be notable; the descriptions below provide guidance to assess the event.": The significant coverage spanning large variety of sources is already evidenced by the present version of the article and my above explanation.
Criteria 4: "Routine kinds of news events (including most crimes, accidents, deaths, celebrity or political news, "shock" news, stories lacking lasting value such as "water cooler stories," and viral phenomena) – whether or not tragic or widely reported at the time – are usually not notable unless something further gives them additional enduring significance.": Again, a no-brainer since the subject is getting significant coverage for months.

In sum, you will benefit from actually reading WP:EVENTCRITERIA. AnM2002 (talk) 08:21, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The coverage you're referring to refers only to the coverage of a particular protest immediately after the protest ends. WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE says "Events that are only covered in sources published during or immediately after an event, without further analysis or discussion, are likely not suitable for an encyclopedia article." Is there evidence of coverage of an event (eg protest) months after that particular event ended? I don't see that for now.VR _talk 18:16, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There are many sources covering the protests apart from those mentioned for a mere idea. All of the recent events surrounding the aftermath of the War in Afghanistan are relatively new developments, though that does not mitigate their notability because they fulfill the necessary requirement to achive their own article. These protests are a phenomenon that is occurring all over the globe for a specific reason. This article passes WP:GNG for sure. AnM2002 (talk) 03:02, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per my explanations above. AnM2002 (talk) 18:12, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete/Merge to 2021 Afghan protests. This looks like an unnecessary fork (possibly even a WP:POVFORK). Protests against Pakistan almost always happen as part of protests against the Taliban. Is there any protest against Pakistan that did not condemn the Taliban? These are both essentially the same topic.

Delete The article cites no credible international sources about the "anti-Pakistani protests". Most of the coverage seems to be about street protests organised by Afghan nationals in India, as reported amongst Indian sources. Per WP:NOTNEWS, an event needs to have lasting significance to be deemed notable which is absent in this case. The protests that were held within Afghanistan are already covered in 2021 Afghan protests. The rest are small, non-notable and haven't gathered much traction from the mainstream media coverage I've tried searching. Mar4d (talk) 10:36, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Utter falsehood.. Even a casual glance at 2021_anti-Pakistan_protests#References shows the article is based on a multiplicity of WP:RS including the Al Jazeera, Asia Times, Iran International, Hindustan Times, India Today clearly demonstrating the extent of coverage that the RS have accorded to the subject, which involves vehement calls for sanctioning Pakistan for being an unrepentant patron of Talibani terrorism, and the same is not confined to one country but has steadily pervaded to almost all the continents. Hell, it even cites the Pakistani publication Dawn, and that most convincingly betrays the hollowness of your specious and misleading argument. 2409:4050:2E0A:42EE:25CD:F8DE:B4E2:5371 (talk) 07:02, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect The ant-Pakistan protests are not focused on Pakistan. They are anti-Taliban protests with the secondary focus being Pakistan, so this article should be merged/redirected into 2021 Afghan protests. RealKnockout (talk) 17:18, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No. They started before 2021 Afghan protests which are limited to Afghanistan. "Anti-Pakistan" protests seek sanction against Pakistan while "Afghan protests" only want end of Taliban's rule. Anti-Pakistan protests can't be "secondary" to something that started much later. Shankargb (talk) 01:10, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

RealKnockout, that's hogwash. RS unequivocally tells you that the Afghans protestors have unrelentingly and vehemently sought sanctions on Pakistan for its unrepentant patronship of Talibani terrorism. Frankly, your comment makes no sense. 2409:4050:2E0A:42EE:25CD:F8DE:B4E2:5371 (talk) 07:15, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Are they not isolated incidents rather than a global protest movement against Pakistan? WP:NOTNEWS exists. RealKnockout (talk) 12:30, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not isolated but frequently covered by range of reliable sources. 2020 Libyan protests, Protests against Iraq War and thousands others were not organized by single entity either. WP:NOTNEWS does not apply here. Shankargb (talk)

Keep - Protests pre-date 2021 Afghan protests and are notable given the widespread coverage. Protests here are particularly aimed at opposing Pakistan's interference in Afghanistan. Maybe a better title is needed. Mukt (talk) 18:55, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete None of these protests received widespread coverage apart from Indian news outlets and they were all attended by Afghans and Indian citizens a non notable event and the page it full of Indian sources further reinforcing my feelings this is just some point scoring and an attempt to make an article out of nothing plus it seems the people arguing for it to be kept are from India which indicates its not notable outside of Indian circles it seems very clearly like an WP:POVFORK) of the main protest article. Himachal78 (talk) 19:54, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:ASPERSIONS. It is clear that either you are misleading yourself or misleading others. No way Al-Jazeera, Radio Free Europe Radio Free Europe, Dawn and many other sources are "Indian news outlet", nor they are limited to "Indian circles". POVFORK argument is also nonsensical because there can be no other page where this content could be added to. To say that protests would have become more notable if they were not attended by non-Afghans and non-Indians is also absurd. Shankargb (talk) 01:10, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

With respect you're arguments are nonsensical all of this information can be added to this 2021 Afghan protests article wheres CNN/BBC etc reporting this mainstream Western media is not reporting this protests where many of these protests are taking place its a bit odd that Indian media are fixated on it is it not? monumental event for one group with only 3 non Indian sources reporting mostly due to the noise made by Indian media which is notorious for its fake news and propaganda. This is purely a WP:POVFORK and is clearly a big thing for Indian media since the page is dominated by those sources and the keep votes prove it see WP:NOTNEWS. This is not a globally significant event even if the Indian media which is known for its propaganda, fake news and exaggerated reporting against Pakistan is trying to make it out to be the fact you took your time to reply proves to me only one group believes this deserves a separate article I believe this just boils down to petty point scoring. Only sane option is that is should be merged with the 2021 Afghan protest article or deleted. Himachal78 (talk) 04:03, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It cannot be merged to 2021 Afghan protests and it would be WP:CENSORSHIP to agree with such a nonsensical move, given there are clearly more than "only 3 non Indian sources" providing significant coverage to this subject, the above attempts aimed at deceiving others won't work. Per WP:RS, personal vendetta against reliable Indian sources is nothing but WP:DE laid bare. AnM2002 (talk) 05:07, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
By some accounts you are known to be uncivil so I will keep it short. It is Nonsensical to even claim its censorship it needs to be merged or deleted just a pov fork and undue pushed by a certain group to satisfy their ego plus if by reliable you mean using video game footage as evidence for an airstrike?

Keep While this might be a POVfork, holy sites can well differ between religious divisions within a faith; as a protestant I could care less about Lourdes, but understand that certain other religious sites (e.g. Church of the Holy Sepulchre) are venerated in all major divisions of Christianity. To that end, the nomination statement appears to be too problematic to evaluate within the context of a simple AfD. We all know that the various divisions within Islam all consider Mecca holy, and I presume that as we descend in order of importance, variations within the divisions will occur. I do not think it would be wise to delete a hypothetical Holiest sites in Orthodox Christianity, for example, just because a cursory review found that much overlapped a similarly hypothetical Holiest sites in Christianity. Jclemens (talk) 17:51, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Recently an AfD discussion resulted in the deletion of Holiest sites in Sufi Islam. I believe this may set a precedent for deletion of this page but I am pinging the editors involved in that discussion for comment: Mccapra Apaugasma. (I was a rather strong keep in that discussion so I hope this isn't misconstrued as canvassing.) Vladimir.copic (talk) 23:34, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This makes a sense to me and is definitely not like Holiest sites in Sufi Islam (because we do not have a separate division in Islam called Sufi Islam, it is rather reformation of heart, as I know it). But I do think that some admin should bring the stuff from Sufi article to the Sunni Islam article. Sufism is majorly associated with Sunni Islam and it'd be hugely helpful for us to have such a list over here. ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 07:37, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I agree with TheAafi that this is not like Holiest sites in Sufi Islam. The importance of this list is that it excludes sites which are only revered by Shii Muslims. Sunni sources won’t describe themselves as Sunni, but simply as Muslim, so demonstrating notability is not straightforward. There may be a case for having a single list article showing sites revered by both Sunni and Shii Muslims and putting sites only of interest to Shii Muslims in a separate section. That would avoid all this forking but that’s outside the scope of this AfD. So despite the nominator’s good faith reasoning, I think the topic of this article is certainly notable. Mccapra (talk) 11:53, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but rename to List of holy sites in Sunni Islam - This is essentially a list of holy sites in Sunni Islam, which I think fails notability per WP:LISTN (it is not discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources), but which is still appropriate to keep per the same WP:LISTN : lists that fulfill recognized informational [...] purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability. However, according to WP:LISTCRITERIA, selection criteria [...] should be unambiguous, objective, and supported by reliable sources. Now while there is such an objective and reliably sourceable criterion for the three or four traditional holiest sites in Islam (the Kaaba in Mecca, The Prophet's Mosque in Medina, al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus, to which said article should restrict itself), there is no such criterion for all the other sites mentioned in the article under discussion (nor for the ones listed in Holiest sites in Shia Islam and in Holiest sites in Islam). Reliable sources never discuss what exactly are the holiest sites in Islam apart from the main three or four (Sunni, Shia, or otherwise), and so this is not a reliable criterion. However, what are considered just "holy" sites in Sunni Islam (without any ranking) probably is an appropriate and sourceable criterion, so it would suffice to just rename the article. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 12:27, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Apaugasma you yourself said we have an objective criteria for 3-4 holiest sites in Islam. Why not restrict the scope of this article to those sites?VR _talk 10:22, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also by this objective criterion do you mean the Sunni hadith that the prophet designated the mosques of Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem as pilgrimage-worthy[19]? If so, the topic is not "Holiest sites in Sunni Islam" but rather "Sunni view of Holiest sites in Islam". Which makes this a WP:POVFORK that I'd recommend merging back to Holiest sites in Islam.VR _talk 10:31, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Vice regent: Yes I do mean the objective criteria you refer to (though there's more than that hadith, and though it's worth pointing out for others reading this that we should not directly refer to a primary source like a hadith, but to secondary sources, like VR did well here). I agree in principle with your merge proposals here and elsewhere, but as I also commented below, far more important in my view is that we should clearly distinguish between the historical concept of holiest sites and the typical wiki-lists of 'holy' sites: we created (and we should never create things) this confusion, and should undo it ASAP. Any article with "holiest sites" in its title should not be about anything but the historical Mecca-Medina-Jerusalem(-Damascus) series: that should be the priority, and deciding whether we want separate articles for Sunni and Shii views on this should only be a secondary concern. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 13:38, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Very good point and I’d support a rename too. Mccapra (talk) 18:40, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I also support the current name, as it's rather consistent to how we deal with, well, Holiest sites in Islam. The two topics seem to be unique enough on their face to deserve different articles. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 05:05, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Both Holiest sites in Sunni Islam and Holiest sites in Shia Islam were split from Holiest sites in Islam on 12 March 2009 with the stated reason to clearly separate the Sunni from the Shi'i perspective (see the notice here), so they are indeed intended to treat the same topic. However, this topic (a list of all Islamic sites that some editors may consider holier than others) is based on a criterion that utterly fails WP:LISTCRITERIA as quoted above.

The trouble is that there actually is a sourceable concept of three or four holiest sites in Islam. In fact, our article Holiest sites in Islam started of in September 2006 as "Third holiest site in Islam", went through three monstrous AfD's (1, 2, 3), and after a lot of further discussion was eventually renamed in December 2006 to the current title (final decision here). The original topic of the article was a controversy over whether the Al-Aqsa Mosque is or is not the third holiest site in Islam. When this controversy was found to be too intractable to be the subject of an article, the renamed page inherited the word "holiest" from the original (from the sourceable 'third holiest' to the non-sourceable 'holiest in general').

But being now a list of merely 'holy' Islamic sites, it has nothing to do anymore with the traditional Islamic concept of three or four holiest sites. Being still named that way, however, it confuses the traditional Islamic concept with the very much Wikipedian concept of generic 'holiest sites in Islam' (just see what you get when typing "holiest sites in Islam" in Google Scholar). The latter is an artefact of the deletion and move discussions of 2006, and being created by Wikipedia itself (a type of 'Frankenstein'), it has no notability at all. I say it's high past time we corrected this mistake. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 19:14, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge back into Holiest sites in Islam. I don't see why "holiest sites in Sunni Islam" or "List of holy sites in Sunni Islam" (as Apaugasma suggested) can't be covered at Holiest sites in Islam or List of holy sites in Islam, respectively. I prefer splits either when the parent article is too large or when the topic is too different, and neither seems to be the case here.

Redirect to table knife. Literally just an alternative name for table knife, no separate article justified. Waddles 🗩 🖉 05:11, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to W. R. Case & Sons Cutlery Co.. In depth internet source searches are providing nothing online in reliable sources about the notion of a case knife being "a knife that was sold in a case, as part of a set of utensils intended for use in dining". However, sources exist about case knives in reference to pocketknives produced by the W. R. Case & Sons Cutlery Co. Some source examples include:

Collecting Case Knives. Krause Publications. 2015. 304 pages.
Official Price Guide to Collector Knives. Random House Information Group. 2008. pp. 175–183.

–Quote from p. 180: "The collector who specializes in knives made by W. R. Case & sons or other Case-related companies will be pleased with the extensive listing that follows."

As such, this comes across as the most accurate redirect target. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 12:51, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per NorthAmerican; their arguments for Case & Sons is convincing. I wouldn't object too heavily to table knife if the consensus moves that way, however. BilledMammal (talk) 02:23, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, but change to a disambiguation page, linking to Sheath knife, W. R. Case & Sons Cutlery Co., and Table knife. I looked into it further, and it seems that the use of the phrase is ambiguous; for instance, Merriam Webster considers it to mean either a sheath knife or a table knife, while Collins refers to it solely as a sheath knife. Incidentally, I am not certain of the "correct" !vote when believing that disambiguation is the correct option, and any comments clarifying, either as a response to this or on my talk page would be welcome. BilledMammal (talk) 02:42, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The long and confusing history of the term warrants detailed explanation. The original usage goes back to the 17th century and was not just a table knife as such knives might be used for hunting too. The knives manufactured by W. R. Case are more recent, as that business started in 1889. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:19, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep & Disambiguate - The term is a valid search term, and as explained above, the fact that it can be used to refer to several different types of knives means that a simple Redirect to one of those would not be useful. Creating a disambiguation page linking to the various knives that have been referred to as a Case knife according to sources would be a much better way to direct readers.

Keep. Clearly there is some disambiguation that needs to happen here at a minimum per BilledMammal.

Simply saying it isn't notable isn't a valid argument, per the guidelines set by WP:GEOLAND and WP:DEGRADE it is. Also, how is it not a ghost town?

sorry to tell you that there are no roads in Teraina only paths in the bush, for pedestrians, and that the only substantial buildings may only include buia (small bungalows) that are generally moved when people do not live there. if not moved, the wood and the pandanus leaves of the buia are quickly reused elsewhere.

Redirect to 2022 IndyCar Series - WP:TOOSOON. The article is completely unsourced. While it can be reasonably established that barring some unforeseen catastrophic event there almost certainly will be an Indianapolis 500 in 2022, it's dubious that any other details can be established at such a date. How are we supposed to know who the commentators will be or who will give the starting command? That clearly fails WP:CRYSTAL. Given how major an event it is I think there is an argument for making an article in advance, but it can wait until the 2022 IndyCar Series has actually started and more sourcing will be available.

Delete - WP:TOOSOON. "almost certain to take place" is not a sufficent reason to keep an article if there is a lack of secondary sources that discuss the event. The closest thing I could find are ticket sales. Regardless of whether the event happens or not, it will have an article one day but - with the race not due to take place for another 10 months - this event is not suffciently notable for an article at this time. Clearly fails WP:SIGCOV. SSSB (talk) 11:32, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I'm in disagreeance with the above two !voters' interpretation of WP:CRYSTAL per criteria #1. This event is less than a year away. There is already speculation ([20][21][22]) and presumably planning. Passes the criteria established at WP:CRYSTAL. Curbon7 (talk) 22:23, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand how you can argue that speculation and presumed planning mean that something passes WP:CRYSTAL. It's unlikely that this subject will gain independent notability from either the Indianapolis 500 article or the 2022 IndyCar Series article until entry lists have actually been released for the event. We don't need a separate article from the general Indy 500 article to tell us that future Indy 500s will be run over 200 laps of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on the last Sunday of May. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 23:58, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Source 1 is speculation on the grid, so yes, it does cover the '22 Indy 500, but I do not believe it asserts notability. Source 2 is coverage of Johnson, not of the Indy 500, and is clearly not significant coverage. Source 2 is coverage of Carlin, not of the Indy 500, and is clearly not significant coverage. Together, they are not enough to demonstrate notability as required by WP:GNG. I also agree with HumanBodyPiloter5 that speculation and planning alone do not meet the criteria set out in WP:CRYSTAL.

Redirect to 2022 IndyCar Series. There are two non-ticketing results on the first two pages of a Google search for the article title. The 'speculation' claimed to exist and linked above seems to be in the form of calendar and grid speculation, not specific coverage of the event that would warrant an independent article. The first criterion of CRYSTAL states quite clearly that the event must be notable and almost certain to take place. While the second condition is debatable (commenters above are speculating quite optimistically), the 2022 Indy 500 unambiguously fails WP:GNG.

Shusaku opening

PRODed with "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. " PROD removed without explanation despite my request for one. The term seems pretty non-existent in English outside Wikipedia. Google Books gives two hits, one seems to be mention in passing, the other, a few sentences in a book about Go strategy ([23]), I can't access it and I am concerned it could be reproducing content from Wikipedia. I have serious doubts this needs a stand-alone article since it appears we cannot write more than few sentences about this anyway. Maybe some merge and redirect to Fuseki could be used as an WP:ATD? That said, it's possible more WP:SIGCOV exists in Japanese (however, no ja wiki article is interwikied, and the Chinese one is even worse than ours and totally unrefenreced to boot). _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:18, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think that they are reliable sources and have significant coverage. --Neo-Jay (talk) 09:05, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Neo-Jay I accept they are reliable. Before I withdraw this deletion proposal (which I am close to), could you comment on how at least two sources meet WP:SIGCOV ? _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:34, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Neo-Jay It's fine if some do not. I interpret SIGCOV as at met if at least two sources meet it. Could you point to such sources? No need for entire books dedicated to this concept, a chapter or such would do. Few paragraphs may suffice. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:36, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus: Thanks for your explanation. Page 78 (whole page, two paragraphs) of Rin Kaiho 2013 (footnote 2) and page 182 (whole page, two paragraphs) of Naoki Hane 2012 (footnote 7) discuss Shusaku opening. And I added a book (a volume of a book series) as further reading, the whole of which discusses Shusaku opening. Thank you.--Neo-Jay (talk) 12:15, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The prod process is only for "uncontroversial deletion" but we already see the nomination backing away from this with its talk of merger and withdrawal. So that prod was improper and so is this nomination too, with its talk of a source search in English, when this classic game is most popular in China and Japan. Neo-Jay has ably demonstrated that improvement is feasible and so our policy WP:ATD applies, "If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page." See also WP:GO.

That would be fine too, considering this as using the merge process instead of a pure delete. As I recall one reason for not doing an redirect (without protection at least) would be to avoid someone with an agenda from expanding it into an article again, but that is probably not going to happen since this one is so far in the past. On the other hand, the redirect would not serve much use, since a search would turn up the mention anyway. W Nowicki (talk) 20:46, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It should be Walter Dunham Claus, as in the text, not "Dunhan", as in the title. At least one of the sources cited is reliable and independent, though I wouldn't call it "in depth". Some other sources are available, and I've begun incorporating them into the article. Wiki-notability might depend on whether fellowship in and presidency of the Health Physics Society meet WP:PROF. I'm inclined to say "yes", when comparing him to other researchers of the time period. (WP:PROF is mostly geared to evaluating scientists and other academics who are alive and active today; mid-20th-century American physicists most known for work during the Eisenhower era are a little outside our typical "look 'em up on Google Scholar" methodology.)

Comment: the remark that "Peer-reviewed journals with the subject in the byline are not reliable, independent sources, as they are merely self-published work with editorial oversight." alarms me considerably. I think it's contrary to WP:PROF which indicates that writing highly-cited papers is a route to notability, and I worry that it doesn't reflect the nature of peer-review, which is highly selective and independent of the author. The whole point is that editorial oversight is what converts self-publishing into publishing. And the editorial oversight of a good peer-reviewed journal is ferociously strong. Just try publishing something in Nature! I haven't looked at the citation rates and impact on Walter Dunham Claus' publications, but his publications, with proper evaluation, should be taken as a potential measure of his notability, in that they reflect the impact he made on his field. Elemimele (talk) 16:57, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Elemimele, I agree with you. However, I think what Multi7001 was trying to get at is that sources which are authored by the subject lack independence per the written guidelines at GNG; no matter how much editorial oversight there is. That's important in this case as a large percentage of the cited sources in this article were written by the subject. What we are really lacking is any source material which covers this person in depth in an independent source. To quote GNG. "Significant coverage addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content." "Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it." We are currently lacking a source which provides significant independent coverage on Walter Dunham Claus.4meter4 (talk) 17:10, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

4meter4 But please do have another look at WP:PROF. The point is this: notability can be achieved by authoring highly-cited works. It's in the specific criteria notes, section 1(a). A citation is an independent recognition of the author. There are basically two ways it can work. We can either find an independent review article that says "Smith's method is used by absolutely everyone", or we can find that a million everyones have cited the paper in which Smith originally described his method. The second situation still makes Smith notable, but obviously we can't list all million times Smith got cited; instead, by convention, we give a reference to Smith's highly-cited paper as evidence of Smith's notability, and it is independent because Smith didn't, and couldn't force anyone cite him. The only thing we could reasonably add to this would be an indication of how many people actually did cite Smith's paper, by reference to some citation index. Conventionally we don't do this because most academics would regard it as superfluous. Incidentally, we also regard academics as notable if they've held a named chair or been chief editor of a high-ranking journal, and neither of these necessarily generates independent coverage. Again, the point is that you can't get to either of these situations unless someone independent of you thinks you're worth it. Elemimele (talk) 19:37, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Elemimele, I can see some merit to the rationale that the subject would meet criteria 3 or 8 of NPROF per User:XOR'easter. I'll admit I was a bit biased against the article to begin with because it was created and largely written by InfoDataMonger (an undisclosed paid editor who is now permanently blocked), and the article title misspelling threw off my BEFORE search. I am happy to change my vote to Keep based on that rationale. Unfortunately there can be no withdrawal because another editor has voted delete.4meter4 (talk) 19:52, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- 4meter4, oh, no, sorry, I'm just confusing the issue here. I don't have any particular opinion on Walter Dunham Claus, and I'm not trying to change your opinion; I only took objection to the idea that widely-cited peer-reviewed papers didn't indicate notability, and particularly I didn't like the term self-published (you may well be right that I misread that editor's intent; I think I took it too personally; I work an an academic field). If you don't think the subject of this article is notable, by all means stick to your guns! Elemimele (talk) 21:38, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Elemimele No harm done. I was already contemplating changing to keep, and this little side trail helped me make a decision. Ultimately I do find XOR'easter's comments convincing. I'm currently getting ready to submit work to a journal for publication myself; so I can understand why you took offense to the label of self published for academic journals. Anybody who has ever gone through the scrutiny of a peer review process, an IRB board review, followed by an editorial board review would object to that label.4meter4 (talk) 22:23, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Matal (film). Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. It is not a clone of IMDb, which aims to list the credits of every film ever made. To provide encyclopedic value, Wikipedia puts data in context with explanations referenced to independent sources. We are supposed to treat creative works in an encyclopedic manner, discussing the development, design, reception, significance, and influence of works in addition to concise summaries of those works.

From before the film was released, there is plenty of promotional hype by people invested in in it. Searches of the usual Google types, in English and Bengali, for coverage after the film was released, however, found only brief mentions: [24] and [25]. The film exists, but there has been no independent journalistic coverage or critical analysis of it. Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NFILM. --Worldbruce (talk) 12:11, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The length of tenure of PMs is significant because they don't have fixed term limits like US Presidents. And so it was an issue whether Tony Blair would match Margaret Thatcher's record or whether Boris Johnson would have the shortest tenure. The topic therefore passes WP:LISTN and the worst case would be merger into something like Records of prime ministers of the United Kingdom but as the nominator is on a spree, it's best to hold the line here. Andrew🐉(talk) 11:00, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep'per Andrew and SSSB. Whether the Canadian and US lists are or are not encyclopaedic (I'm expressing no opinion here), this topic very clearly is. Thryduulf (talk) 11:46, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This information is already given on List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom. Why do we need a separate page regurgitating it? Getting quite exasperated at these kind of articles - and the keep brigades defending of them. Why should someone go to three different lists to see a pm’s age, tenure and start date when it can be and is covered in one page? Has no one heard of Occam’s razor? Vladimir.copic (talk) 13:13, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That other list does not present the information in an accessible fashion as its list is split into three separate sections and none of them are sortable. The list in question clearly meets a need. It has existed since 2006, has been validated and worked on by hundreds of editors, serving millions of readers. What's exasperating is that a single driveby deletionist can threaten this extensive history in such a cavalier fashion without regard to WP:BEFORE. Andrew🐉(talk) 13:51, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:HARDWORK, WP:ARTICLEAGE, WP:INVOLVE. Why not just edit the List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom page to make it easier to filter etc if that is the issue. Occam's razor one again! It seem untenable for WP to become trillions of bite-sized extremely narrowly focussed articles on the ground of accessibility. Surely we can give readers a little more credit. Vladimir.copic (talk) 06:37, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Occam's razor ("entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity") is little more than an opinion. Have you never heard of Occam's razor#Anti-razors? You have not denied that WP:LISTN is satisfied, and as far as I can tell, a merger into the main list is not practicle (for the reasons listed by Andrew above), meaning that the common, but incorrect paraphrasing of the razor ("the simplest explanation is usually the best one.") would support having both lists. SSSB (talk) 07:23, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect The above arguments are laughable because List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom already gives the lengths of terms, so this is an unnecessary duplicate no matter how notable the topic is. That table should be reworked to be sortable though. Merge to Records of prime ministers of the United Kingdom also works. Reywas92^Talk 13:46, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - It doesn't really matter how notable the idea of the length of the UK Prime Minister's terms have been, since the simple fact remains that this is still a redundant fork of List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom, which already lists the exact information that is on this chart. This list is basically just a version of the main article's list, only with less information and no valid sources or pieces of information that is not already present on that article, making it a pointless WP:SPLIT. A redirect could be OK, but I doubt this article title is a very likely search term. Rorshacma (talk) 15:38, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
With over 150,000 views this year before the deletion nomination, and double that last year, it's very clear that people are looking for this exact information and that the main list is not serving their needs. Why is it not meeting their needs? Probably because the main list is not sorted nor sortable by the length of tenure, nor could it be made sortable without a complete redesign. Given that the main list is featured, consensus for such a redesign would seem unlikely at best (especially as it would mean less optimal presentation of other information contained there).

Ultimately, while a glance at the article titles might suggest this is a redundant fork, when you actually look at the detail of the two lists it's clear that neither is actually redundant to the other. Thryduulf (talk) 15:48, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Andrew Davidson and Thryduulf -GorgonaJS (talk) 22:28, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It's only a fork if the main article has a sortable list that adds up the length of multiple terms. The way the list article is constructed it is very difficult to extract the total length of terms, which as pointed out above is something people regularly seek information on. — Jts1882 | talk 09:02, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No it can't, or at least not without a major redesign of a featured list and as noted above consensus for that is far from guaranteed. Thryduulf (talk) 22:12, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There's nothing preventing the list from being redesigned if the need arises. Even if it can't be made sortable, the info can still be made a column if this page is deleted.67.173.23.66 (talk) 23:01, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the page, it seems that the list already includes each prime minster's length of tenure, which makes a separate article a bit redundant.67.173.23.66 (talk) 23:07, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The list can be re-arranged if desired, but I strongly suspect that there isn't the desire to altar a featured list to increase the prominence of one relatively small (but still encyclopaedic) aspect simply because a few people dislike having a separate list that is designed to present that information in the most useful way possible. This is especially the case that any such redesign of the main list would, of necessity, decrease the prominence (or maybe even inclusion) of other information. While the tenure length is in the main list, it is not possible to get from it answers to questions like who had the longest or shortest (or 2nd, etc longest/shortest) tenure, or how many (and who) had tenures shorter or longer than a given amount of time. Nor is there any reason that the main list should be doing that - Wikipedia is not paper and we don't have to limit ourselves to one list that has to include multiple compromises to do everything it can possibly do when we can have multiple lists that each do different things well. Thryduulf (talk) 23:53, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- The latter article already lists each of their tenures anyway. it has been explained multiple times already why this is true but irrelevant.

WP:OR (the "overview" section) and trivial cross-categorisations by the dozen (the table). I can't find any external reliable source which discusses this, either (at best, there are mentions of the oldest and youngest, but that statistical platitude is not enough to justify a list of all of the others), showing this fails WP:LISTN.

Keep: Regarding the age of U.S. presidents, the History television network has discussed at least the eight oldest. When Carter became the oldest living U.S. president (ever), which the article documents in its second table, CNN [27] and ABC [28] covered the occasion and noted his predecessor. With any comparison of age, birth and death dates are vital, and with those in office, the age on starting and ending that office is a natural addition, as is the length of life after leaving office. "Cross-categorizations "by the dozen" seems an exaggeration. —ADavidB 03:45, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - WP:OR? Where? All the dates are easily verifiable. Calculating the length of time between dates is an easy and quick calcultation, and so not original research (Wikipedia:No_original_research#Routine_calculations). Find the mean/median/mode/range are also quick and easy. Saying "number x is larger than number y" isn't original research either. So I am not sure where the original research.
I also see WP:NOSTATS in a few rebuttals. But the arguements based on WP:NOSTATS suggest that the nominator has only read the (for what of a better word) lead of that section and not the entirety. These two pages actually follow the advice in NOSTATS: Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article. - that is what has happened here.
As for WP:LISTN, this is what I found in 90 seconds using an internet search engine: [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35].

Delete - As stated several times already, this is just a redundant fork of the main List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom, only with no real sources. Redirecting would be pointless, as this would not be a likely search term. Rorshacma (talk) 15:41, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:DELREASON#5: Content forks (unless a merger or redirect is appropriate). I don't see anything worth merging to List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom since basically the only thing this list adds is the numbering, and I don't think this title would make for a useful redirect.

List of prime ministers of Canada by time in office

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

Fails WP:LISTN, and also appears to be a trivial cross-categorisation based on statistical trivia. I can't find any source which discusses PMs based on the length of their time in office; and the section about "Calculation of terms of office" contains only general material about the term lengths of prime ministers; and then some WP:OR based on parliamentary records. None of the sources in the table seem like they're dealing with the title subject either, only providing details about the respective prime minister's terms. There are two alternatives, thus: merging those paragraphs about prime minister's terms to the main list article; which seems excessive as lists are usually kept short and such details about individual entries are better left in the article about the PM's themselves; or, of course, deleting as one usually does with OR and statscruft...

Keep Since Prime Ministers do not have fixed terms of office, having a list organised by term of office provides significant information about the relative political significance of the different PMs. They are inherently notable, both individually and as a group, and their relationships to each other is illustrated by a list showing terms of office. The list by time in office thus serves an informational function that a chronological list or an alphabetical list would not do. (I also think it would be difficult to produce a sortable list; I tried to do that with this list, but was defeated by the fact that some PMs served separated terms. But then, I'm not the most techno-wikipedians around, so maybe someone else, more versed in wikidom, would be able to figure it out.) Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 03:22, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or Merge. I've come across several reliable sources recently that have evaluated Justin Trudeau's legacy in the context of how his term in office compares to other PMs: The Conversation, CBC, and Maclean's. Seems notable, in that light. If we can find a way to merge it cleanly into another page, that'd be reasonable—but I agree with Serjeant Buzfuz that it's difficult given the existence of split terms.

Keep - IUCN, ADW, and MDW are all valid sources and cited in the article, so am not sure the “one” reference that is bad. Having a list of mammals is not a statement of sovereignty: Many subnational divisions have similar lists.

Redirect No indication that this subset list is necessary. Reywas92^Talk 13:52, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or rename This is not only unrecognized, but it is not a subnational division either. The article on South Ossetia tells us that its territory “does not correspond to any Georgian administrative area (although Georgian authorities have set up the Provisional Administration of South Ossetia as a transitional measure leading to the settlement of South Ossetia's status), with most of the territory included into Shida Kartli region. When neutral language is deemed necessary, both Georgia and international organisations often refer to the area informally as the (legally undefined) "Tskhinvali Region".” It also has unstable boundaries, due to borderization. —Michael Z. 19:11, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ultimately, it depends whether reliable sources have recognized this as a notable subject, per WP:NOTABILITY. At a glance, it doesn’t appear that any of the cited source mentions South Ossetia. “Mammals of Texas,” in quotation marks, returns over 20k Google Books results; “mammals of South Ossetia” returns one bogus book titled after an experimental visual artist. —Michael Z. 13:52, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I don't have any specific objection to a redirect, but South Ossetia is specifically referenced in the infobox under "States with limited recognition", which would seem to not contradict the assertion in the nomination here.

Delete for two reasons:

This whole page is an original research. It does not use any sources like "Fauna of South Ossetia".
This is not a unique geographic region, with its own endemic fauna. So, no, it does not make sense to create such lists for any arbitrary defined geographic region. And yes, it was not recognized as a country.My very best wishes (talk) 01:30, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Again in support for redirect : A search for land regions at www.iucnredlist.org reveals that there is NO entry for South Ossetia, whereas 1,223 species are listed for Georgia. Imo it is NOT relevant whether South Ossetia is or is not recognised as politically independent. Relevant is that NO RL list or RL assessment is available for South Ossetia. -- BhagyaMani (talk) 07:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect. Besides the geopolitics, Cyprus is one island around 200 km across, and all the biotic zones (mainly differentiated by elevation, not north/south east/west divide) are present on both sides of the geopolitical divide. These two articles will remain roughly the same, with differences more likely to arise due to lack of editorial oversight or lack of sources for Northern Cyprus.--Eostrix (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉) 07:20, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a memorial and there is absolutely nothing notable about this individual besides the fact he was featured in World Trade Center (film), which already mentions him in its article.

Keep It seems to me there is a difference between someone entering a doomed building to rescue people and someone trying to get out. Maybe it is my view rather than the nominator's that is idiosyncratic. Never mind, journalists have written about these people partly to remark on mistakes in the film but also to provide more background information. For notability purposes it does not matter why journalists wrote about their subjects but whether what they wrote meets our criteria. I think the articles meet our criteria.

Keep: Considering their roles in a significantly historical event, I'd say the four articles should remain in line with WP:N. Deleting three of the articles, based exclusively on their inclusion in a film that is in turn based on extraordinary significant events, seems like a shoddy excuse to remove them. Also, the repeated use of "absolutely nothing notable" about the subjects seems a little, perhaps unintentionally, distasteful. Evilgidgit (talk) 16:24, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It is extraordinarily significant for someone to survive having not just one, but two 1,000+ foot skyscrapers fall on top of them. If anything, this provides context to the ~3,000 dead who may lack an article; survival was just that difficult. Wikipedia is about notability and this is pretty notable, considering the many articles being written about these men even two decades later. My response applies to all four proposed deletions. You could make your same (weak, in my opinion) argument for any number of 9/11 figures, and then all we'd be left with are 19 redundant articles about the same Middle Eastern loser. The event was as much an attack as it was a response, and what were essentially miracles of survival and/or people fighting back are as much a feature of the event as the attacks themselves and their inclusion is warranted here. Separately from my response to your proposal, considering the time, this was an extremely insensitive thing to do and you ought to be ashamed of yourself. Mary Samsonite (talk) 01:11, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep At least for Will Jimeno I can't see a justification to deletion. There was a large article on his life events after 9/11 that came out in a national publication (Politico) for the 20th Anniversary, and it noted he has a published book, has done motivational speaking around the country etc. It would seem he is more notable than simply a random individual who died in the collapse of the towers and has a specific fame beyond just the fact he survived the collapse. Eth19508029 (talk) 02:01, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - this whole nomination feels like it was done in bad faith, and the disregard for BLP (there's a rather large difference between "fails to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines" and "there is nothing notable about [person]") or WP:BEFORE. Jimeno clearly meets the GNG, having been profiled in Politico. As for the others, you could probably make the case that being portrayed in an Oliver Stone movie is evidence that person meets our notability guideline. Similarly, having received a significant national award like the 9/11 Heroes Medal of Valor also suggests notability (regardless of what one might think about some of the post-9/11 awards).

Comment. Note that we have deleted articles on many equally brave individuals who have been decorated for their courage in action or otherwise. I'd be interested in an explanation as to why these people are notable and the others are not.

Delete. Fails both WP:GNG and WP:NBOOK. I can't even find a single review of it online. Perhaps the co-authors might merit a wiki article considering they appear to have a "body of work" on this kind of subject matter, but that remains to be seen and this book alone certainly doesn't meet Wikipedia notability thresholds for its own article.

Delete. I found some mention of it in this Newspapers.com article, but it's more about the concept rather than the book. Other than that the mentions seem to be more about the authors doing signings and appearances where they talk about the book. There's just not much out there that isn't primary, junk hits, or places to buy the book. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 22:52, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The references look good. Perhaps he passes WP:GNG. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 01:51, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Definitely fails FOOTY at this point (despite the disingenuous comment by the creator "created page as the player has joined the first team" - he is still solidly with the reserve squad, hasn't even been on the bench for the senior team). As above, may pass GNG due to a few articles in national media on him playing for Scotland (or being selected for the squad I should say, since they didn't bother putting him on the field on Tuesday).

Keep - probably scrapes through GNG with the Scotsman article. Giant Snowman 17:59, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep scrapes through WP:GNG further subject is 21 years and has a ongoing career hence see little point in deleting it.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 22:07, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - coverage from cited sources as well as One Football, AS, El Correo and La Sexta is likely enough for GNG Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 19:45, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, added a couple of those. Crowsus (talk) 21:45, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I see the issues here, but on balance I think he meets notability on level of coverage he has received. Also as a player involved with Under-21 squad, he is likely someone that people would search Wikipedia to find out more about. Dunarc (talk) 22:48, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep as coverage is borderline GNG and subject has potential. No Great Shaker (talk) 04:18, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This is not a single event. Note the range of dates on the references. Another editor, Kaizenify (talk · contribs · count), posted this as an an edit summary, and I agree: The subject is a prominent transgender in a country with hostility to LGBT and has tried to remain a voice for the community. I would remove the sentence with her former name. We generally avoid using deadnames.Eastmain (talk • contribs) 01:13, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: She is not living in Nigeria. Additionally if she really is that prominent, far more detail and sourcing is required. Past articles are just a paragraph talking about her Instagram posts. Miss Sahhara is different entirely, having been the first publicly open trans-woman, being directly effected by Nigerian laws and having won awards from international modelling competitions. — IVORK _Talk 03:52, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. With sources like Pulse and Dailypost shows some relevance and according to Legit.ng here, their sexuality has encouraged more queer persons which makes them significance in a country against LGBT laws. And hence passes WP:ANYBIO. Dfertileplain (talk) 15:30, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
