Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Actors and filmmakers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Jean Stair (talk | contribs) at 08:34, 18 December 2016 (Listing Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Arthi_Venkatesh (assisted)). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Actors and filmmakers. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Actors and filmmakers|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Actors and filmmakers. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

The AFD in February began with a majority for delete, but was closed as redirect to List of The Howard Stern Show staff. Since then, she's had a minor role in Sharknado: The 4th Awakens, and last month another editor re-created over the redirect. Now for my money, one Sharknado does not a summer make, and the newly-recreated article reads like a straight paste from a press release for her. Still, reverting to the redirect without a discussion doesn't quite seem to be in the spirit of the relevant policies, so I've taken it back to AFD. Not notable per WP:MUSICBIO outside of her association with one band; not notable per WP:NACTOR; has written some blogs, but the WaPo reference only mentions her in passing, so not notable per WP:AUTHOR. Her sole claim to fame seems to be her previous work on the Howard Stern show, for which she hasn't received much coverage in WP:RS outside of the shout-out on Jimmy Kimmel.

  • I say delete for sure. Not only is the sourcing not convincing, but a lot of it isn't even sourced. The source for her attending the Connecticut School of Broadcasting doesn't even mention her.TBMNY (talk) 18:19, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep She has a lot of detractors who don't like her but she was apart of a very popular band, a regular guest and writer for the most famous Radio Show in history, had a movie role, written for many popular websites, and is verified on Twitter. More than enough to warrant a Wikipedia Page IMO. LeafK1 (talk) 1:32, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

  • Weak keep, without prejudice to relisting in the future if her career does not progress further. All of her achievements alone would not qualify her; Being a member of Cobra Starship doesn't qualify her for her own article (see Matty Healy from The 1975, for example, who was deleted despite being relatively high-profile), nor does the minor acting role or the radio appearances. When combined, though, I think she just sneaks in as an admittedly Z-list public figure, and as such we should have an article. KaisaL (talk) 17:23, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. There appears to be no agreement on whether her awards can be considered "well-known and significant." King of 06:49, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A BLP that lacks coverage in reliable secondary sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. Does not meet WP:PORNBIO due to lack of significant awards; awards are fan-based or scene/group-related. Sources include online profiles, interviews and trivial mentions in tabloid-like publications -- these are insufficient to establish notability via GNG. Appearance in the mainstream outlets are trivial.

AfD in 2007 closed as "keep" based on the awards but the consensus around adult biographies has evolved significantly since then, along with PORNBIO, so it's a good time to revisit. K.e.coffman (talk) 17:25, 17 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I agree. WP:PORNBIO, especially term of "a well-known and significant industry award" are debatable, nominator - K.e.coffman and his "deletionism pornography gang" based on subjective interpretation of PORNBIO and trying to convince others that XBIZ Award, F.A.M.E. Award are not well-known and significant industry award and even most of the prizes of pornographic Oscars - AVN Awards are not well-known and significant industry award! No, this is not a joke. Very destructive and controversial behavior. As for the second case: it does not matter whether a chosen people or "professors" (jury), there are many world-class awards in many industries where the winner chosen people. This is another attempt overstatement requirements by "deletionism pornography gang" with K.e.coffman and User:Hullaballoo Wolfowitz. Subtropical-man (talk / en-2) 15:29, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - meets of PORNBIO + some other smaller achievements + fame (well known, 34 interwiki speaks for itself). Generally, 101% notable. For me, this AfD is trolling by user:K.e.coffman, he inserts to AFD more and more notable pornstars. I suggest a little break in the topic of pornography for K.e.coffman because he lacks neutrality. WP:PORNBIO is not the only argument that you need to consider, also in this case, status of F.A.M.E. Award – Favorite Female (in WP:PORNBIO) is still disputed, where is neutrality? Voices to removed continuously from the same users, i.e. user:Hullaballoo Wolfowitz or user:Johnpacklambert (with still the same silly-empty text of "non-notable pornographic performer") are boring and destructive. I understand, to do the cleanup in pornography category (delete pornstars without any achievements), but this is an exaggeration. Compact group which constantly vote for removed, still the same users responsible for the mass removed pornography articles (blindly based on WP:PORNBIO like robot), often they are trying to misuse the official consensus of WP:PORNBIO (for example: AVN Award is the most exclusive award in the industry but for these few users, not all awards of AVN Award are important). More and more we are approaching the final: topic ban for these few users, who massively intercede pornography articles for AFD and massively voting for delete. This "gang" of these few users have the clout that every AfD is their winnings, what see on each votes (see: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Pornography/Deletion#Closed). I and few other (inclusionist) users like @Rebecca1990: or @Erpert:, we gave up - a constant battle with the same gang. Time to end it. PS. I apologize for my voice during the Christmas season - then again, I forgot... Subtropical-man (talk / en-2) 12:28, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • One more time: Interwiki links have no bearing on notability. Wikis in other languages have their own notability guidelines and some include articles because they exist in en.Wikipedia. AfD is not a battleground and this is not about winning or losing. I've kept away from voting in these borderline PORNBIOs with low-quality sourcing debates, but your call for a topic ban is ridiculous. Editors like HW take a hard line about reliable sources. The best response is to provide quality sources that cover the subject in a non-trivial manner, not to call the editors deletionists. • Gene93k (talk) 14:07, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I know that the amount of interwiki is not a sufficient argument to keep and I know that "Wikis in other languages have their own notability guidelines" but if article existed on 35 Wikis, and gang of (still the same) few users on English Wikipedia want to remove article based on disputed interpretation of WP:PORNBIO, something is wrong. Alektra Blue is well known pornstar and have 406 films, 11 years in industry, she was the Penthouse Pet of the Month, she has also been featured in several men's magazines, including world-known Hustler (I know, none of them individually are not arguments for keep, but to analyze a person can be taken into account). She won several awards including (individual as requires WP:PORNBIO) notable F.A.M.E. Award and the so-called pornographic Oscars - AVN Awards, the most renowned prize in the pornographic industry. Otherwise, Blue appeared in the music video for the 2010 single "Telephone" by Lady Gaga featuring Beyoncé (+ independent - non pornagraphic sources, meets of WP:GNG). Alektra Blue meets the basic guidelines of WP:PORNBIO and WP:GNG and has additional achievements, even Wikipedia:Common sense speaks for leave. Subtropical-man (talk / en-2) 14:46, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is no legitimate "dispute" over the application or interpretation of PORNBIO, at least in the direction Subtropical-man claims. The most recent RFC on PORNBIO "demonstrated overwhelming consensus" for making the guideline more restrictive. If there was any substantial dispute, it was over whether the guideline was not restrictive enough. Repeated deletion discussions and DRVs have also demonstrated strong consensus for the point that, as with every other SNG, failure to satisfy GNG/BLP sourcing requirements generally outweighs a technical SNG pass. Subtropical-man's argument that editors who consistently make policy/guideline-based arguments and achieve consensus for their positions are illegitimate demonstrates, at best, a mind-boggling lack of WP:COMPETENCE and, giben the level of repeated, groundless personal attacks ought to justify a topic ban. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006. (talk) 18:14, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • What are you talking about? There is no official consensus (on page reserved for this purpose, for example Wikipedia talk:Notability (people)) about awards: XBIZ Award and F.A.M.E. Award (that these not meet of WP:PORNBIO) and also there is not official consensus for AVN Awards (that most of its prizes does not meet of WP:PORNBIO).
  • WP:PORNBIO say: "Has won a well-known and significant industry award", for some users (including you and your gang), XBIZ Award and F.A.M.E. Award not meet of PORNBIO, for some users these awards meets of PORNBIO. WP:PORNBIO does not specify exactly what prizes accepted, whether something meets the requirements or not, it is debatable case and based on subjective interpretation and own opinion. Until an official discussion and consensus on page reserved for this purpose, to new version of WP: PORNBIO who precisely show accepted awards, there will always be conflicts. PS. User:Hullaballoo Wolfowitz, if you think that you create quiet consensus concerning WP:PORNBIO between users of your gang on AfD pages (or other pages this type), you're wrong and you show "mind-boggling lack of WP:COMPETENCE". Subtropical-man (talk / en-2) 21:41, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Subtropical-man, you make perfect sense and your argument bears much merit, make no mistake. Wolfowitz's opinions lack substance as well as credibility as he makes it a constant point to eagerly resort to personal attacks and then whine about how everyone and their grandmother is conspiring against him (just read his signature, that should give you a flavor of what he's about). He is a BLP zealot who even goes as far as trying to invoke it on people who are long dead ("WP:BLP does not authorize scandalmongering about the dead"). [1] I am confident however, that the majority of users see through this charade of his and see this issue for what it i really worth and vote for "keep". @Gene93k, I disagree, I don't think Subtropical-man's call for a topic ban for HW is "ridiculous". As a matter of fact, I think it is highly warranted in his case as he only engages in disruptive, nonconstructive edits aimed at removing content rather than making it better or more constructive, often on completely erroneous grounds.Holanthony (talk) 19:50, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Holanthony, you and Subtropical-man conspicuously avoid arguments that are actually grounded in policy and guideline, preferring abusive comments about other users. You don't participate much in AFD discussions, and your !vote has never yet matched consensus. Subtropical-man's rate is as bad as I;ve ever seen for an experienced user, 16.6%.[2] In contrast, my "accuracy rate" is over 80& [3], while Gene93k, whose arguments you also decry, has an even higher consensus-match over 87%. Pretending that the relevant consensus doesn't exist is disruptive at best, and likely deceptive. Attacking editors for making consensus-based arguments is grounds for a topic ban; establishing or supporting consensus is not. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006. (talk) 05:09, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo), your percentages are nonsense and manipulation. Most of my votes in the AfD over the few years are in the field of pornography and... you with your "gang" with still the same few users have the clout that every AfD is their winnings, this gang vote in each AfD about pornography (see: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Pornography/Deletion#Closed). If there would be this "gang", my "percent" is about 90. These numbers do not show anything. You wrote also: "Pretending that the relevant consensus doesn't exist is disruptive at best, and likely deceptive" - there is no official consensus about AVN Award, F.A.M.E. Award, XBIZ Award or other, there are no official guidelines for AVN Award, F.A.M.E. Award, XBIZ Award or other in WP:PORNBIO. Official text from WP:PORNBIO: "Has won a well-known and significant industry award. Awards in scene-related and ensemble categories are excluded from consideration". For part of users, these awards are not meet PORNBIO, for part of users are meet of PORNBIO. For last months, I act according to the WP:PORNBIO (official consensus) but you not. You are constantly trying to increase the requirements, you falsify consensus telling other users that AVN Award (not all prizes) and F.A.M.E. Award, XBIZ Award and each other awards are not meet of PORNBIO, based on its opinion. Subtropical-man (talk / en-2) 20:43, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • You're spouting ridiculous stuff again. The "nonsense and manipulation" you claim exists (without evidence) are actually generated by the standard tool used for RFA evaluation. Yes, your percentage would go up if only people who disagree with you didn't vote. Big deal. Making arguments that you disagree with and getting consensus support for them is hardly improper. It is exactly what's called for by WP:CONSENSUS. Your failure to accept this shows a failure to understand basic Wikipedia principles and reflects poorly on your WP:COMPETENCE. Now stop attacking other editors and ranting tendentiously. If not, it's likely to lead to a topic ban. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006.

  • Comment -- the recent set of edits have not substantially improved the article: diff. In fact, it added more trivia cited to the XRent web site & interviews:
  • She credits fellow actress Taryn Thomas with her introduction to the adult industry, as they used to work at a call center when they both lived in Arizona.[1]

  • (edit conflict) Keep  Pornbio topics are typically massively notable directly, by the understanding of notability provided by the WP:N nutshell.  This one seems to go well above any sense of "typically".

    At the last AfD, closed as Keep, the actress only had 97 movies listed, now the number is 406.  Nominator omitted WP:BEFORE B6, which reveals 24 interlanguage links, "which may lead to more developed and better sourced articles".  The next year after the last AfD closed as keep, the model received recognition as Penthouse Pet of the Month, a recognition I consider just by itself to be sufficient for at least a mini-bio on a page of related bios on Wikipedia. 

    Pornbio topics needs to satisfy WP:V, and there are 17 inline citations, with 5 "dead links", which are acceptable as verifiable sources, and one citation needed tag.  Unscintillating (talk) 04:56, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • The WP:PORNBIO guideline has been tightened substantially since the article was kept in 2007. Being a Penthouse Pet or Playboy Playmate is no longer an automatic pass. Prolificness and number of films was removed from PORNBIO later in 2007. Nominations no longer count and neither do scene-related awards. As for citations, quality (reliability) counts more than quantity. The sources that aren't junk are trivial mentions. The dead links at sites like AVN can be found by searching the site. They turn out to be republished press releases. As for inter-language links, Wikipedia in any language is not an acceptable source for supporting Wikipedia content, and many are just translations of the article in English Wikipedia (circular sources). As for giving the article more time, no amount of editing can overcome a lack of non-trivial reliable source coverage. • Gene93k (talk) 05:50, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Notice that the above post has mentioned more than one "that used to be an automatic pass" criteria that are applicable for this topic.  Just because they are no longer an "automatic pass" doesn't mean that they don't still carry weight.  And when the benchmark used to be 100 films, and this topic has 400, the weight is considerable.

    Republished press releases are secondary sources that carry the reliability of the publisher, and reliability also depends on context. 

    An issue remains that WP:BEFORE B6 was ignored in the nomination, and at this point, we don't know how much the discussion has been confounded by opinions developed before knowing the basic facts. 

    If there is a problem in the sourcing of the article, this would be important and independent of notability, but based on the sources and tags in the article, in fact there appears to be consensus that the article satisfies WP:V.  Unscintillating (talk) 14:40, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Regarding WP:BEFORE, have you actually looked at the interwiki links? They use the same English-language citations that the en.Wikipedia article does. Some are even less well cited. Citing a failure to cross this T regarding an American porn star is legalism that defies common sense. Wikipedia is not a court of law. • Gene93k (talk) 00:46, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Where is the feedback loop here?  From engineering theory, the concept of a "system" requires feedback.  Are you a supporter of quality AfD nominations?  Wikipedia may not be a court of law, but it is also not a back street alley.  Unscintillating (talk) 03:15, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Re notability criteria: Before my time here, porn stars were kept for having an IMDb profile. As several Wikipedia guidelines and policies state, "Consensus may change." In the the case of PORNBIO, it has changed substantially over the past 10 years. There was a long drawn-out debate about what criteria about a porn performer predict likely notability, and that is the current WP:PORNBIO guideline. Nominations no longer count. Scene-related awards no longer count. X number of films was expressly removed in 2007, since film counts are easily inflated. We use the notability metrics agreed by consensus to determine whether or not an article is kept. • Gene93k (talk) 00:49, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Press releases: Per WP:V, press releases are self-published material. (See note #9 referenced by WP:Verifiability#Self-published sources.) They are not intellectually independent of the agency promoting the good or service being reported. WikiProject Pornography notes that Adult Video News does not indicated whether an article is original reporting or a press release, but a common indicator is contact information.

  • Delete as (happening to look in) I'll state the applicable porn actors notability says "Scene nominations aren't notable" and that's what we have here, so citing WP:PORNSTAR is not the same thing if it's not actually stating what's otherwise suggested, hence there's no other significant awards and no actual notability, as the nomination states. GNG is especially not applicable since it's a gamble given how thin and unconvincing it can be used for nearly anything, so WP:PORNSTAR is what applies here alone. SwisterTwister talk 05:23, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply to Unscintillating regarding WP:GNG not being a content guideline. Content is not the main issue we are discussing. Notability is the normal standard we use to determine whether to keep or toss an article. The relevant notability guidelines in this case are the General Notability Guideline (GNG) and PORNBIO if GNG is not met. • Gene93k (talk) 06:00, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • In contrast with this assertion, the relevant notability guideline is WP:Notability.  The following quotes are from the top of the guideline. 

    WP:Notability "is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply." 

    The nutshell states, "Wikipedia articles cover notable topics—those that have gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, and are not outside the scope of Wikipedia. We consider evidence from reliable independent sources to gauge this attention. The notability guideline does not determine the content of articles, but only whether the topic should have its own article."  Unscintillating (talk) 14:40, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • As I replied to you in another AfD debate, GNG is the main body of WP:N. The section you quoted stresses WP:RS which is the main problem with this article. Ignore all rules rules requires compelling evidence. As I stated above, I am not !voting in this AfD, but the recent trend is to IAR/use common sense and delete these won-an-award-but-is-crappily-sourced PORNBIOs despite looser interpretations of WP:PORNBIO that used to prevail. Then again, PORNBIO is the most permissive standard in Wikipedia. • Gene93k (talk) 23:58, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • You are pointing to a talk space essay/guideline fork that you wrote to expand on an assertion you made in an AfD discussion. Your complaint was that notability assessments are too GNG-centric. That AfD discussion closed as no consensus. A more productive path would be to bring the issue up at Wikipedia talk:Notability or the village pump. In this case, you propose satisfying it by ignoring all its related parts, another way of expressing "ignore all rules." Following WP:N without WP:GNG, we go to the relevant specialized guideline to the right, Wikipedia:Notability (people)/WP:BIO. The primary criteria (WP:BASIC) restate GNG in summary. Failing that without in-depth coverage by reliable sources, we go to secondary inclusion criteria, WP:PORNBIO in this case. Here lies our dispute: Are the awards won "well-known" enough to satisfy the PORNBIO guideline and do they overcome the lack of reliable source coverage? Again, IAR needs a compelling reason. What do you have? • Gene93k (talk) 22:14, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm sorry that you don't seem to like my link.  I've redacted the link because you don't show that you've understood it, so it is not helpful.  The other two sentences of the post remain. 

    Other text above that stands is the statement that reads, "WP:Notability is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow...".  WP:N is where notability is defined on Wikipedia; not at WP:GNG, not at WP:BIO, not at WP:BASIC, not at WP:PORNBIO, and not at WP:IAR.  Unscintillating (talk) 00:12, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Gene93k, you wrote: "The relevant notability guidelines in this case are the General Notability Guideline (GNG) and PORNBIO if GNG is not met" - yes, but in Alektra Blue case, PORNBIO are official met: two non-scene awards. The problem is only "deletionism pornography gang" based on subjective interpretation of PORNBIO and trying to convince others that XBIZ Award, F.A.M.E.

A BLP that lacks coverage in reliable secondary sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. Does not meet WP:PORNBIO due to lack of awards; only nominations are listed.

  • Strong Keep. I believe this is just a case of applying the wrong notability guidelines. WP:ARTIST does not apply to actors. WP:NACTOR does. Subject's role in a multiple Tony-award winning, Broadway touring production, of a Disney-produced show, is sufficiently notable in itself. Equally notable, subject also appears in the same role in the feature film[6]. Subject also currently stars in Disney Cruise Line's live musical show[7]. Article also features subject's RS coverage in Broadway World, Broadway Connection, the Internet Broadway Database and Playbill and local coverage[8]. It should also most likely include reviews from the 65 cities the subject appeared in during his show's multi-year run.[9]. Per the article, the subject has also performed in another notable touring production[10]. Also notable, per NACTOR, subject also has thousands of followers on social media.[11],[12]. So I think subject's notability is pretty clearly and easily established. Not just with NACTOR, but he also passes WP:BIO generally, and WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO, specifically. So I think the nominator should withdraw this nom under speedy keep. X4n6 (talk) 08:38, 17 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Reference 1. The musical filmed on stage. IMDB although not a ref, similar to ref 1, which is ticket page, DOES NOT list him, as he is not a primary player. 2. An Instagram page. Says he is a main stage performer, not a lead or a Star nor a guest lead or star. 3. States he as made his Broadway introduction, a Broadway newcomer is the first sentence. 4. Isn't valid as it doesn't mention his name. 5. This is a blog and invalid, although it points to the fact he is a newcomer. 6 and 7. You assert he has a big following on social media. A big following is considered above 200-250,000+ people. That is the established number on Twitch, Spotify, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter. On Instagram he has 9 1/2 thousand followers. On Twitter he has around 2500. So it all points to him being a newbie, starting out. As regards the Tony Award winning show. Notability is not conferred nor inherited. He doesn't pass WP:NACTOR and he fails to assert WP:BIO. I truly think at some point he will be in here. But not at the moment. scope_creep (talk) 11:30, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and I meant to comment sooner, I concur with the nomination since the analysis above and my own shoe it to be too trivial and none of it establishes the substance actually needed. To specify, the links simply consisted of announcements and mentions, yet the Keep labels then as "significant" and also the cited "notabilities" are in fact suggested notability guidelines, not policy; with this said, WP:NOT is our policy here and it explicitly states we are not IMDb, therefore since nothing else was significantly shown to be substantial, Delete (sources themselves never actually focused with him let alone lend actual convincing). SwisterTwister talk 08:23, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I am concerned that the only objections I see, are based on either incorrect assumptions/conclusions, misinformation, or misinterpretation of policy. For example, perhaps the nominator can explain, for our purposes, what difference it makes if a movie is filmed on a stage or a soundstage, if it has a theatrical release in movie theatres? Regarding IMDB, the current entry also does not list the director, producers, musical director, cinematographer or any crew or post-production. That just means the current IMDB entry is incomplete. However, he is listed there now. Besides, the official website also lists subject and his character name. So the claim that he is not a "primary player" is disproved by the official source - which, since it's Disney, is reliable and conclusive. Their link: Meet the cast and creative team proves the subject plays one of the principal roles. Also the Instagram/Twitter pages only approximate social media followers. But as the nominator originally misapplied WP:ARTIST here, which does not apply to actors, the nominator does not seem to understand WP:NACTOR, which does and subject clearly passes. Subject's extended body of work on a Broadway national tour; a prior national tour; an upcoming feature film; and current touring engagement, all of which are reliably sourced in the article, combine to easily satisfy NACTOR#1. While subject's thousands of social media followers and the thousands of likes subject generates with each post, by definition, constitutes a "cult following," per NACTOR#2. Subject also satisfies NACTOR#3, in that it is both unique and prolific to have a two-year run in the same role in a major Broadway national touring production, and then to reprise it in a Disney-produced feature film. Subject's current coverage already surpasses WP:BIO and WP:BASIC. The fact that, as a cast member, the subject shared in Tony Award nominations and other awards and is listed in the historical record of this production, also satisfies WP:ANYBIO. So not only is there no basis for deletion now, but even if there were, it would most likely evaporate following the additional coverage subject will receive upon the release of his upcoming film. Finally, it appears to have been ignored that this article is a WP:STUB. The threshold for deletion of stubs is "little verifiable information, or if its subject has no apparent notability." Neither of which apply. X4n6 (talk) 13:16, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article was deleted very recently on the grounds of lack of notability. The current version of the article still does not show notability. Kash Hovey has had minor roles in several movies and a TV show, and his only major role is in an indie film that has gone virtually unnoticed by the media, and is itself currently proposed for deletion. In terms of sourcing, nearly all sources are either IMDB or some type of trivial mention. The most substantial source in the article is one interview he gave to The LA Fashion.

  • Delete. I can't see where this actor currently passes notability guidelines. I'd also recommend salting this article to prevent any further recreations. Looking at the name of the editor creating who first created the article, I have to assume that this is Kash Hovey or someone affiliated with him trying to add him to Wikipedia by way of this article and what looks like the start of a walled garden with the creation of articles for some of the movies he's been in, Undateable John and Jack and Cocaine, neither of which look to be independently notable. I'm going to nominate each one for AfD (one is PRODed) in the hopes of keeping both from being recreated any time soon and I'd recommend a salt in that instance as well.

  • Delete. To be fair, there is a bit more real media coverage present here than the nominator has acknowledged — but it's all to his own hometown's local media, it all just namechecks his existence in coverage of other things rather than being substantively about him, and none of it adds up to anything that would pass WP:CREATIVE for the purposes of inclusion in an encyclopedia. Furthermore, there's a direct conflict of interest here, as the creator's username "Davidjosephanselmo" corresponds directly to the CEO of the same city's main film studio, which means there's a direct professional association between the subject and the creator. As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform on which a cinematographer is entitled to have an article just because he can be verified as existing — a cinematographer gets an article when there's a substantive reason for one, such as winning an Oscar or a BAFTA or a Canadian Screen Award, or being influential enough in the field that sources are actually being written to analyze their cinematographic style, and not just for making a locally distributed short "civic pride in our city" video or speaking at the opening of a local high school's new film and video training program.

There are brief mentions in at least German, Polish, Russian, Spanish, possibly not the most reliable but none the less they are there, and appear to be accurate.

  • I disagree. The WP:NACTOR guideline was developed to assist in determining whether an artist/actor is notable and merits an article. Although you may say that every article should pass WP:BASIC and WP:GNG, we'd only be trotting out debates that have been had numerous times in the past as to why actors are a little different and that "episodes" are effectively publications, etc, etc, and that is exactly why the WP:NACTOR guideline was developed. Rest assured I've no intention of rehashing the old arguments. Suffice to say, Ms. Griffiths in an actress and meets (and exceeds) the criteria set out in the WP:NACTOR guidelines and for me, I've no need to look beyond that in this case. -- HighKing++ 16:21, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unfortunately I have no idea about the past discussions and like yourself I'd rather not get in to a whole big debate over it but atleast IMHO all articles should pass BASIC atleast, I agree with you episodes are like publications however there should be substantial/in-depth sources aswell .... Take away IMDB at present we have 2 episode sources which isn't good enough, All articles are expected to have more than 2 episode sources especially when they've acting since 1999. –Davey2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 19:02, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep The nomination here seems to be caught up in the red tape of contradictory policies rather than the obvious reality that a main actor/actress in a series like Waterloo Road is inherently qualified. The fact that she hasn't had newspaper features about her or similar is irrelevant, unless you are arguing this is a WP:HOAX. If individuals meet clear criteria, we don't need to dig for links for them, and to start a precedent of this would be a time drain. AFD nominations should solely be for cases where notability is in question, and so this would be better solved via the article's talk page. KaisaL (talk) 17:31, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • One doesn't become notable just for being in one film or programme, All BLPs on this project are expected to meet BASIC atleast which this unfortunately doesn't, We have statements in the article like "Katie Griffiths was born in St Albans, Hertfordshire and attended Garden Fields Primary School." and "born in 6 April 1989" - Not one source is available to back these up so therefore could well be untrue and so can any of the other info in the article, That's the entire point of this AFD - There is no notability, I've said this elsewhere but I don't expect millions upon millions of in-depth coverage however for someone who's been acting for the past 10 years there should be something better than just 2 small mentions. –Davey2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 18:34, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with you, I'm afraid. Katie was in four series of Waterloo Road as a main cast member. This isn't a case of someone playing an extra in one episode, it's a full cast role in a prominent series (not one I care about, but it is). That alone means no other qualifiers are needed, else we're acting outside of the specific policies on figures in entertainment. If the other information is not referenced and you're unhappy about that, you're welcome to remove it. There's a big difference between non-notable and not being high-profile, her performances in that one series are more than enough. In short, you're holding her to higher standards than our policies require. KaisaL (talk) 20:08, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately I disagree with you, I know she was and that's great but like with any other articles BLPs need adequate sourcing, The article has been here for the best part of 8 years and the sources have never improved since (because there's nothing on her) and lets be honest here the article won't be sourced from hereon in, I appreciate she may meet NACTOR in terms of what she's been in however BASIC still needs to be met (I usually go for GNG however I'm trying to be as lenient as I can here), If you believe she's notable for being in WR then why not Redirect to WR instead and that way the articles history can be preserved?, I've sourced many non-prolific BLPs and it's easy as pie when the sources are there (even if they're harder to find it's still more or less easy to do) and I appreciate not everyone gets something written about them but the issue is there's not even mentions let alone in-depth stuff, If there was mentions I would be happy with that and wrap this up but unfortunately there's absolutely nothing, –Davey2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 21:00, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose I'm old school and feel that AFD is for cases of notability, not an article with limited scope for depth and improvement. I'd rather a two sentence stub for a notable subject than discussing the possibility of deleting them entirely. It doesn't seem like you really dispute her notability, just a lack of references, which for me isn't an issue for this process. KaisaL (talk) 21:07, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Personally I would say they're still non notable tho, In a roundabout way there's no evidence of notability here other than her role in WR, Ah well, Thanks anyway, –Davey2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 21:46, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I originally tagged this with a CSD, but was declined by Adam9007 citing 'Worked with notable people.', but working with notable people is not a valid criteria under WP:ARTIST. Looking at WP:ARTIST, the closest criteria is 'has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition', but I would hardly classify exhibitions at a bar/nightclub as being 'significant'. I have also checked the references and the best of them are YouTube videos posted by the subject, blogs by the subject or other blogs. Many of the references have either been deleted, or are unreachable. Given this, it would appear that the article is either autobiographical, or by someone with a close association. Overall, I consider that this article should be deleted as it clearly fails WP:ARTIST. David.moreno72 07:48, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Think I was asked due to deprodding one of the director's film articles, here is a diff of the message here. Regarding the article, agree that national references would be preferrred such as NewYork Post but local rs news coverage is allowed for GNG except for companies and inview of the horror news review which is a reliable source for the horror genre, the New Jersey.com articles, theme specific poker magazine and website articles think there is just enough for a borderline pass of GNG, and although secondary sources are preferable primary sources are allowed so am voting!

  • Delete. The Town Crier is a community weekly newspaper that is neither widely distributed beyond its own neighbourhood nor archived anywhere that we could retrieve the content again if the weblink ever died, so it does not count toward passage of WP:GNG. It would be acceptable for supplementary sourcing of stray facts after GNG had already been satisfied by stronger sources, but it cannot count toward the initial question of whether GNG has been met in the first place. And the same issue pertains to Durhamregion.com. And I searched to find the Toronto Star article as well — it is not in fact about him, but merely namechecks his existence a single time in an article about something else, so it's not bringing any GNG either. And WP:NACTOR is not met just because roles are asserted, either: it's met when the roles are supported by sourcing that satisfies GNG — but none of the sourcing here satisfies GNG, so NACTOR is not passed. SNGs do not provide an exemption from having to source an article over GNG; they serve to clarify the types of things are accepted as notability claims if they're supported by GNG-passing sources, but the sourceability still has to pass GNG to actually get the article included, regardless of what it unsourcedly or bad-sourcedly claims. No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when somebody can source it better than this. Bearcat (talk) 21:04, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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

This article in not looking like a article in wikipedia it's looking like a article instead it's look like a praise letter. She had never done any successfull TV series as a protogonist. She has done only one popular serial that is Diya aur Baati hum but in this show her role as antagonist was only for few days. This atticle repeatedly violates WP:NPOV and does not meet even WP:BIO. So I think this article should be deleted. Ishi2345 (talk) 18:12, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Agree with the nominator about violating Neutral point of view and Wikipedia:Notability (people) . I read the whole article and its seriously looking like a compliment letter to boss but when I try to find out about the actress's life I don't find any notable work in internet. The article try to portray her as a epic heroine like Helen in Troy. But in reality she didn't done any single notable work. So I think this article should be deleted. Ominictionary (talk) 15:59, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: As a main contributor of this article I am trying to address the issues relating to WP:NPOV and WP:BIO raised by above editors. To make the article more 'neutral' and fit for Wikipedia it is rectified and improved. Further the editors are requested to edit if necessary. Regarding 'notability' of the article subject, I want to inform the editors that she had done - Ruk Jaana Nahin - run successfully for about 1 year (19 December 2011 - 23 November 2012) and Tu Mera Hero - run successfully for about 1 year (22 December 2014 - 14 November 2015). Her performances as 'main female protagonist' in Ruk Jaana Nahin and as 'main female antagonist' in Tu Mera Hero were liked very much by the people. She also acted for the difficult role of a weird character in Diya Aur Baati Hum successfully although the role is short and of some days. Over and above these she had done 'lead role' in 12 episodics (Short film like TV show of about 45-50 minutes) for different TV channels. She is very versatile actress and has been entertaining TV audience since 2010 till date. Many reliable and independent Indian Newspapers like 'The Times of India', 'The Hindu', 'Indian Express', 'Tribune India', 'Zee News', 'ABP Live', etc. and TV Magazines like 'Tellychakkar', etc. made coverage of the events relating to her. The editors are requested to refer to the inline citations and references given for the article. Based on the above clarifications, I would like to request the editors to reconsider their decision and withdraw the nomination of the article for deletion.--Teampoojasharma (talk) 20:18, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ Her serial Ruk Jaana Nahin was never successfull the serial was stopped because of law trp for more information check this link :-http://www.tellychakkar.com/tv/tv-news/ruk-jaana-nahin-go-air-khamoshiyaan-get-early-evening-slot. The serial never did well. Tu Mera Hero was also not a successfull serial at the first place it was doing good but after that it also failed to impress audiance. By the way we are not for to discuss which serial was hit or flop we are here discussing about the actress's notablity. Whatever Teampoojasharma (talk) 20:18, 9 November 2016 (UTC) gives as reference that all are gossip column nothing reliable source. Ishi2345 (talk)[reply]

@ Everything once started is to end but it matters how long it stays. TRP of the show mentioned in the above referred link is what happened after running about 1 year. 1 year is a long period. TRP of a show depends on many factors. Here we are discussing about the actor not the show. Basic Criteria of Notability (People) of Wikipedia says - 'People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.'. The coverage given on the actress by the reliable and independent sources as cited in the article itself (some of the sources are mentioned above in my previous comment) may be considered. I think reliable source means the Newspapers or Magazines, not the column and every content is a part of these sources. --Teampoojasharma (talk) 23:04, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete:- Probably non notable because I don't find any information about her in google if I search about her name always showing up some other actress called Pooja Sharma not any information about this one. In this view I can take her as non-notable so delete it.Tupur16 (talk) 17:48, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ Even if we do not find a targeted person on internet in the first search giving name only, the person may be found when searching by adding more query items relevant to the person. (e.g. in this case Pooja Sharma with Ruk Jaana Nahin, Tu Mera Hero, etc.) The conclusion of only the person found on internet in the first search giving name only is notable, but the other persons of the same name are not notable may not be right. As mentioned in my previous comment, Wikipedia has its own Criteria of Notability (People). Wikipedia solves such conflict through Disambiguation Pages as different persons of same name may be notable to include in Wikipedia. --Teampoojasharma (talk) 14:50, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- the sources listed in the article seem to suggest that the actress was likely to be the "next big thing" of Indian TV, but this does not seem to have come true. So WP:TOOSOON applies. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:54, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I agree with WP:NPOV raised by the editors above. The subjects also fails WP:GNG. No reliable coverage outside gossip columns about the subject itself that are not promotional in nature. Most are passing mentions. Another issue to be flagged is that there seems to be a direct WP:COI as the name of the account suggests. The author seems to be WP:SPA. All the edits are about Pooja Sharma and her one or two ongoing daily soaps. Most probably the account is held by a promotion company on hire. ChunnuBhai (talk) 10:16, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment In the first few references, 3 are interviews and hence primary references. Others seem to be channel pushed coverage of its serials hence promotional in nature.

This is not a case of only one event. The media coverage of this individual has grown larger so an article is justified. Many major newspapers gave a significant attention to this model. As per Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Entertainers, if someone "has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment." and also "has a large fan base." the subject ma y justify an article and in my opinion, this individual has. After making his runway debut, Arshad Khan has made his first appearance in a music video as well. --Saqib (talk) 12:30, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Saqib: Well the subject has appeard only in one music video so far and its WP:TOOSOON for a stand alone article and the notability of the musician/artist of the music video is also in question. I don't see anything to support large fan base and we can not rely on social media fan following. GSS (talk) 13:07, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete I don't think it currently meets WP:ENTERTAINER and I don't see any reliable sources that currently could get the article up to the required notability.

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. Unfortunately, I have trouble reading and understanding Ukrainian, but none of the sources cited seem to be in-depth and reliable - they seem like mentions in passing, or primary sources. The entire article is written like a promotional puff piece resume (the author is a clear WP:SPA), and having read it, I simply don't see why this person would be notable due to the virtue of his career, which is reasonably successful, but not encyclopedic.

  • Delete. Most of the references in the article don't actually support the statements, they just link to the webpages of events Pavlo Grytsak is supposedly connected with. I'm not sure whether this counts as significant coverage, but in those sources that's as good as it gets. He gets more mention in a few other articles, but they are focused on the company he works for. Since I'm not good at searching for sources in Ukrainian, there could still be significant coverage of him somewhere, but until proven otherwise I'll assume that if that's true it would have already been added to the article.

  • Keep. Both of his films pass notability guidelines per NFILM, enough to where they each merit their own articles. That's ultimately enough to justify him passing criteria 3 of WP:NDIRECTOR and I've seen directors pass AfD on just the notability from two productions alone, as significant in the third criteria essentially just means that their work is notable enough to have received reviews and ideally, to each have independent articles. It's a loose criteria, admittedly. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:04, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. As little content as there actually is here, there's (surprisingly) still enough that's different from the prior version to forestall speedy as a "recreation of deleted content" — but still none of it is substantive enough, or reliably sourced enough, to grant her an WP:NACTOR pass. Actors and actresses do not get an automatic inclusion freebie just for existing; they must be reliably sourced to media coverage about them. But for "sourcing", what we have here is IMDb, another insignificant and non-notability-conferring database, and a history of Peppa Pig which just namechecks the existence of Peppa's voice actress while failing to be about Peppa's voice actress — and that is not the kind of sourcing that it takes to get an actress over the wikibar.

Nicholas Boulton (actor) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

British actor. This is a whole fan site disguised as an article, written in revoltingly sycophantic prose that goes to extreme lengths to highlight every detail of "Nicholas"'s career as a milestone in popular culture. Now, it is quite possible that this actor is notable, but I could not bring myself to read all of the 500(!) footnotes, almost all of which merely document an appearance in some work or other; and a Google News search does not immediately highlight the person as notable - just a lot of mentions of appearances in plays. In any case, if he is in fact notable, this needs WP:TNT and starting over by somebody who knows how to write a neutral encyclopedia article.  Sandstein  10:43, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good morning, Although I happen to be a "fan" of the actor (which i don't see why that should be a problem since most people who edit actors pages on Wikipedia are fans of the artists they work on), I am really perplexed by the "rude" tone you use to describe my work, especially as I have identified all infos I could find on the actor with reliable and certifiable sources. Would you please highlight me "very kindly and politely" as to how you think my prose is sycophantic, remark I find very offensive. And two, would you mind explain to me how somebody who should be on Wikipedia has to pass the Google News Search highlight to be notable. The man I follow is a well esteemed and respected actor who worked on several programs in the UK and being esteemed by his peers and professional critics, and game players. Reviews have been given about his work and he has had interviews also. Please inform to me as to how I can improve this page which I passed through the creation process and which all who watched it found acceptable and even approved it. Thank you for taking the time in reading my message. Waiting for your reply. Simon — Preceding unsigned comment added by Simon Omnes (talkcontribs) 13:17, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Simon Omnes, to begin with, articles are to be written from a neutral point of view and cover what reliable sources have written about a subject. What you wrote is a fan site. Just looking at the first paragraph, you write: " Apart from that first job opportunity, Nicholas's three years studies gave him acting skills, an agent, and the chance, as he says, "to safely explore the different directions one could take in what is a hazardous choice of career."" That is the sort of vapid blather found in press releases, not an encyclopedia entry, starting with referring to the subject by his first name, which suggests an undue sense of familiarity. If you cannot recognize the problem here even after reading examples of good actor biographies, you should not be writing for Wikipedia. What's more, there's so much crap in here, it's not clear whether your subject is even notable per WP:GNG.  Sandstein  18:15, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - While the article does require much clean up, the fan bias included is not as prevalent as  Sandstein  is making it out to be. On the contrary to what @Sandstein has suggested, I do not believe that the article requires WP:TNT. I wouldn't consider the article to be a "fansite", though some opinionated adjectives could be removed. In any sense, subject is clearly notable per media coverage and should be kept on Wikipedia. In the future, I suggest that rude words such as "crap" be discluded from deletion reviews, as well as demeaning comments regarding how a user is not skilled enough to be included in editing. On the contrary, more experienced users should assist new ones in becoming more skilled editors rather than brutally criticizing their work. Remember: uplifting critique is better than criticism that tears down. MonroeHarless (talk) 20:45, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you MonroeHarless for your supporting words. As a new member of the Wikipedia editing community, I find positive comments much better than rude words and patronising attitudes. As to whether or not I might want to work on Future Wikipedia pages, that might be something else I'd want to reconsider considering Mr.Sandstein's unpleasantness. But still, for the sake of this page I have been work on for 4 months on my free time, I would like to patch it up as much as I can. Would you be kind, Mr. MonroeHarless or any editor on Wikipedia who might look at this discussion, tell me which part of the Wikipedia page could be improved (adjectives to be removed, phrases to be reformulated), even give me some of your suggestions. If you also want to add your corrections to the page, I would find the gesture very kind. After all, I've always felt Wikipedia exists so that we can create a "cooperative" and "respectful" Encyclopedia. --Simon Omnes (talk)22:51, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • You said, "In any sense, subject is clearly notable per media coverage" but I disagree wholeheartedly. I do not believe the subject is notable as he has not received significant coverage in independent sources. If you believe he has, I would ask that you share such sources as offer significant coverage of him. Simply having performing in an audiobook, or 10, does not make one notable. --Odie5533 (talk) 12:32, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep - Yes, it is a bit difficult to find actual information to show notability, but I think there have been sufficiently many significant roles for him to meet WP:ENT. I think it would be a good idea to cut it down to a stub or at least a much shorter version and starting again; essentially WP:TNT but without a complete deletion in between. @Simon Omnes: - unfortunately it is not a matter of removing some adjectives and phrases - the entire text is promotional and that requires a complete rewrite, removing large bits of the text as well as many of the footnotes. I have started doing so now. Writing a new article is the hardest thing to do on Wikipedia, and it is not exactly rude to suggest that a user does not yet have the experience required to do it well. Please note that Wikipedia is usually not interested in what a person says about themselves, and there is no reason to include more than maybe a very few very brief bits of information about what Boulton himself thinks about his work. The only relevant thing is what other people who are not connected to him have said - positive and negative. --bonadea contributions talk 10:55, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Changing my own !vote to delete. Having worked with the article, cutting away information that is not relevant to this article as well as info putting an undue focus on Boulton's own opinions about the various roles he has had and the people he's worked with, I am forced to change my mind about his notability. WP:ENT specifies that the person has had multiple notable roles, but multiple minor roles some of which are in notable productions are not the same thing - for example, an appearance in one episode of the undeniably notable series Game of Thrones does not confer notability on the actor, since notability is not inherited. --bonadea contributions talk 19:59, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:GNG. I looked through all the sources and none offer significant coverage of him. The best was one article that had 1-2 sentences about him when discussing one of the plays he did. Most of the sources are just citations that he did this or that audiobook, and the rest of the article is based on interviews he's done for YouTube gaming series, or one put out by the company he was working for at the time. Delete as not notable. --Odie5533 (talk) 12:29, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good evening, I have added a new version of the tables (Theatre, Film, Video games) etc. and have kept in them what I consider important info regarding Nicholas. Please give me your advice as to what should be kept or deleted. As for my reasons as to why we should keep Nicholas Boulton's entry (though it seems I am in the minority in those discussions), here they are: 1) The artist has been praised for his work in the audiobook industry (Audiofile Magazine articles, reviews, and awards), YouTube channels and Game Websites have done interviews for his work (audiobooks and video games), and reviews have been written about his performances in theatre. 2) The man has been in talking roles for major productions like Shakespeare in Love and Tospy-Turvy, which are quite noted for their media presence in the English-American cinema. He has also been in important video games (Dragon Age) and TV shows (Life Begins, Jonathan Strange, HeartBeat, etc.). He is not an obscure actor. 3) Several video game booklets, even books on plays mention his name as an important cast member for various original productions(Dragon Age, XenoBlade Chronicles, Last Story, etc.) Does Wikipedia still consider book references as pertinent and valuable information for an artist's career recognition and notable importance? 4) The man is an important presence in the radio entertainment industry in the UK as he has done hundreds of BBC radio plays. And as for the references I've used for those radio plays, they are program schedules in the Radio Times (publication in the UK) that show which day the productions appeared and which roles he did. Shouldn't that be a valuable information? 5) Although he is not a presence in the popular press like the most popular actors, Nicholas has nevertheless a rich and important background in the UK Theatre, film, and television. Shouldn't his presence in those projects, along with his work pedigree, be a great asset for Wikipedia's art/theatre/television sections. Shouldn't Wikipedia be a page about culture and the artists that work in the entertainment industry? There are several artists that are not necessarily notable in terms of stardom culture and media presence, but who have developed themselves and their name through their career and awards instead of the usual press. What about those that do have some articles recognition and awards for their work like Nicholas? Shouldn't we be offering those artists a chance of presence on Wikipedia? Thank you for reading my post and new suggestions. Waiting for the rest of your posts and suggestions, corrections. Sincerely, --Simon Omnes (talk)01:27, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Shouldn't we be offering those artists a chance of presence on Wikipedia?" -- Simply, no. Wikipedia is not meant as a platform to boost the careers of less recognized actors. As you have argued, despite the fact he's held many jobs over the years, he's maintained a rather low profile and been flying under the radar. That is precisely why he is not eligible for an article. None of the sources offer significant coverage of him. Until people start writing about him, more than 1-2 sentences in a long article that focuses primarily on a different actor, I do not believe he is notable enough for an article. --Odie5533 (talk) 13:30, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment "There are several artists that are not necessarily notable in terms of stardom culture and media presence, but who have developed themselves and their name through their career and awards instead of the usual press." - yes, and those artists can then potentially be notable per these criteria, but it is not automatically the case. Awards sometimes grant notability (according to Wikipedia's peculiar definition of the word "notability") but only if the awards themselves are notable, and generally not for nominations.
Reviews are useful to show notability, but again it depends on who wrote the review and where it was published. Negative reviews are of course just as relevant as positive ones in terms of showing notability.
Book references are just as valid as online references, see this information; game booklets and programmes produced for plays would probably not be reliable sources, however. --bonadea contributions talk 13:41, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep the issue presented in the nomination seems to be notability, so we turn to WP:ENT, which details that actors have had significant roles in multiple notable films, plays, etc. Many of the roles Boulton has played have been significant, especially in plays with only a few characters, and seeing as those many of those plays do turn out to be notable and not some college or small-town production, I'd say he meets the notability guideline in WP:ENT.

Notability. Yes there are many appearances, but some of these actually demonstrate non-notabity. Series such as Z-Cars employ many actors in very short parts; the non-memorability of which is evidenced by the fact that the samer actor can reappear playing a another part in another episode.

WP:TOOSOON and fails WP:GNG: The actress has only appeared in one film so far and the notability of the film is also questionable. I failed to find decent coverage in independent secondary reliable sources for a stand-alone article at least not yet. GSS (talk) 11:53, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sir, I know about her. She is a Famous actress. She acted in one film but she is the heroine. The film got good response and so many medias talked about Disha's performance (137.97.121.33 (talk) 05:40, 11 December 2016 (UTC))[reply]

Delete. WP:BLP of an actress, which makes no claim to passing WP:NACTOR and contains no reliable sourcing to support it -- in fact, the page fails to even have an actual article in it, consisting solely of an an infobox and a filmography list which is sourced solely to the films' IMDb profiles, all of which reveal that she's in the cast as an unnamed minor character at best (except for one claimed film whose IMDb profile actually fails to list her name in the cast at all.) As always, Wikipedia is not a free PR platform on which an actress becomes entitled to have an article the moment she can be nominally verified as existing; an article does not become earned until reliable source coverage about her, verifying something that would actually pass WP:NACTOR, is present to support one.

  • Keep This is very close. But, found what appears to be ok coverage in Turkish (don't read it), he is in a martial arts Hall of Fame, found a 1984 reference in Black Belt magazine where he was included in a list of elite black belts, and he has appeared or done fight coordination in several notable German/Turkish films or TV shows. While I'm skeptical about whether the appearances or coordination work qualifies under WP:ENT, the whole package seems close enough to error on the side of keep. AbstractIllusions (talk) 03:13, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Martial art hall of fames have never been considered indication of notability and neither is a passing mention in a list defined by an adjective. They attended something and were called elite. Does not come close to meeting WP:MANOTE.Peter Rehse (talk) 10:25, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. As I said above, I'm not sure any one feature qualifies under any individual criteria of notability, but in my opinion the whole package (including martial arts, with RS mentions, and profile in notable TV and movies) seems likely notable. I stand by that assessment. AbstractIllusions (talk) 01:47, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep and improve Strong keep The above deletion rationales are correct for the name spellings given in the article. But I'm seeing multiple significant coverage of him in WP:RS, when searching for "Hero Alom" in Bengali: হিরো আলম. I get the impression (via Google translate) that he's notable as a meme in Bangladesh, rather than as someone for whom we should be looking for straightforward notability as an actor.

@Jnanaranjan sahu: when the notability guidelines talk about "local coverage", they mean small town newspapers. This article now has four six references from national dailies of his country. Wikishovel (talk) 20:39, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Not chaning my view. Hope you have been through WP:ENT. There is a reference which links to his youtube channel. I believe It is too soon to add an article about him. --Jnanaranjan Sahu (ଜ୍ଞାନ) talk 18:02, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've never said he was notable on the basis of WP:ENT. As I've noted above and per the article, he's not just an actor, he's also a bit of a social media phenomenon in Bangladesh, with 3.6 4.2 million views on YouTube, and he does meet WP:BASIC. Wikishovel (talk) 19:05, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The deletion discussion is poorly framed. With the exception of biographybd.com (which has been removed), the original sources were reliable, albeit not all that deep. To those original sources, Wikishovel has added four more solid Bengali-language sources. I don't like the topic, don't relish guarding it against vandals, and won't shed any tears if it's deleted, but I don't see how anyone can seriously argue that it still doesn't meet WP:GNG. --Worldbruce (talk) 19:51, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The sources are solid, and the article is well sourced for stub. The Subject is a cringe pop star and source of Viral memes in Bangladesh. The fact that he received coverage from Independent National Newspapers support notability. The deletion discussion was framed poorly and some of the arguments for deletion are not policy based.

  • Weak Keep:- This article probably should not be deleted. The person is a social media sensation of Bangladesh and India and the source are completely reliable. Some says discussion that he did not appeared in National TV but seriously in nows day national tv is not needed for becoming a notable person.

  • Comment Alom is not an actor; at best, you can call him a wanna-be amateur model. Lately he received considerable negative publicity, specially on facebook because of his ineptitude as an actor, his unsuitable physical demeanour as a model, and (maybe) skin colour as well. People are mostly mocking him on facebook; few are amused and sympathetic. The publicity he receives in Bangladesh is mostly negative. Hence, I will suggest to delete this article albeit he is a very interesting phenomenon, perhaps would be a great subject of interests to social science experts, sociologists, anthropologists who are interested to work in the field of racism, classism, patriarchy, social media phenomena, pop culture, pop psychology, and etc. - Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 03:35, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Delete. Alom has just become the joke of the country and hence received negative publicity, especially on facebook, and other social networking sites. How come that can be considered a criterion for an entry on wikipedia? And most of news sites (/links) covering him except Prothom Alo/Daily Star have little credibility. So, my afterthought recommends the deletion.- Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 10:05, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:Notability isn't contingent upon the coverage being positive. And as you've said yourself: he's now known nationally. Wikipedia also has many articles on the most terrible criminals imaginable, not because they're worth immortalising, but because they're notable. And since he's received in-depth coverage for a significant time in national newspapers, he's notable. Wikishovel (talk) 10:40, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
What do you mean by in-depth coverage? Would you please mention one? The most credible or reliable newspaper in Bangladesh, The Daily Prothom Alo, published with a reference to a spam news from India that Hero Alom is more sought-after person on google.com than Salman Khan; it's an utter falsehood. Please check https://www.google.com/trends/yis/2016/BD or https://www.google.com/trends/yis/2016/IN . I have already said most of the links are not credible; they are mostly spam news. I think it is better to keep wikipedia spam-free. Thanks. Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 13:44, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I forgot to say that though I said the joke of the country, I didn't necessarily mean he's known nationally. He is known by some facebook users, and other social networking sites users; he's become a social media phenomenon when facebook users began mocking and lampooning him online, and then, some online news portals (mostly spam news sites) covered him following the trick of clickbait journalism. And in their print versions, many newspapers avoid publishing many things which they publish online as clickbaits. Thanks. Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 17:30, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
By in-depth coverage, I mean whole articles about him in multiple WP:RS, not just passing mentions. "Significant coverage" isn't precisely defined in WP:BIO, of course. The Prothom Alo reference that's actually used in the article is an opinion piece about him, but it's quite a long article, and describes him as an example of what can be achieved in Bangladesh today. Thanks, 14:05, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
That is a populist piece, and it barely mentions Hero Alom. Hero Alom is just a passing reference in that piece. Thanks. Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 14:14, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BASIC says "people are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable". Hero Alom has not received significant coverage in multiple secondary sources, and most of sources are not reliable. Even The Daily Prothom Alo's claim that Hero Alom is more sought-after person on google.com than Salman Khan is an utter falsehood. Please check https://www.google.com/trends/yis/2016/BD or https://www.google.com/trends/yis/2016/IN . Therefore, the article completely fails to meet the WP:BASIC. I think it is better to keep wikipedia spam-free. Thanks. Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 13:54, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That might indeed be a falsehood, but that reference isn't used in the article. Wikishovel (talk) 14:05, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As per as I'm concerned Prothom Alo and The Daily Star is considered two of the most reliable newspapers! The article has references from those papers with one link from Kaler Kantho and Jugantor each! Coming from that, Zee News and NDTV are two of the most reliable medias in India. They too published news about Hero Alom. (Sources: Zee News & NDTV) Though they are not used in the article. But I think this is enough to prove that this guy has received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable , here,
  • Multiple = Prothom Alo, The Daily Star, Jugantor, NDTV, Zee News etc.
  • reliable secondary source = I don't need to proof that I think!
  • Significant = A "reputed" and reliable media won't publish anything at their Page 3 without any research of their own.
So under the current circumstances I don't need to be an judge to say that this article does meet the WP:BASIC.
PS: I think you need to search the trend under different idea. The news says Hero > Salman, it doesn't say Hero is trending in top 10. Mind that. But I won't say anything, since I didn't do any personal research on this! Oh yes, the reference isn't used in the article. Mentioned the correct thing @Wikishovel:--PGhosh (Hello!) 17:18, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment

  • I have already said that The Daily Prothom Alo's claim that Hero Alom is more sought-after person on google.com than Salman Khan is an utter falsehood. I compared them on google.com/trends/. Hero Alom is nowhere near Salman Khan. Who says Prothom Alo reliable? How can you still claim "a "reputed" and reliable media won't publish anything at their Page 3 without any research of their own"?
  • Indian news portals like Zee News, NDTV, etc published things just following the trick of clickbait journalism without minimum research. Just sheer clickbait yellow journalism. I'm from Bangladesh, and I'm sure about what I'm saying. Did some research.
  • If the issue of coverage and significance is taken into consideration, Hero Alom received really very little print media coverage. There are thousands more things getting covered in daily national newspapers, and they don't get into wikipedia. Just few weeks back an elephant from India crossed the border; he got live coverage in tv, dailys, even named Bangabahadur nationally. But he's not in wikipedia though more widely covered than Alom.
  • First, I thought Hero Alom would be an interesting study of racism, classism, patriarchy, social media phenomena. So I didn't recommend deletion. But then it occurred to me Hero Alom is yet to be covered in an academic research paper.
  • Also keep in consideration that in their print versions, many newspapers avoid publishing many things which they publish online as clickbaits.
  • Hero Alom simply does not meet the WP:BASIC. Thanks. Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 17:43, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a ballot going on here, I admit defeat. Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 18:33, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Here's the Hero Alom article. Just tell me on which line the "utter falsehood" reference is used. If it is not used then there's no value in the concern of the article. Now what you are talking about clickbait seems unreal to me as the false news was published on December 17-18 while heas featured in Zee News at 15th of December. Moreover the trust level of these media are compared to Al Jajeera of Middle East. So, they obviously does there research before publishing any news and you may find out These news says about him and his "works" not some "utter falsehood" news. But this info is also unimportant as these sources are not used in the article. Now the last thing you told they surely can do that. But that doesn't mean the news becomes unreliable. Cause the online version of a print media is also reliable. See WP:RS for details.
Coming to Bangabahadur. Bangabahadur is a pure and classic case of WP:1E. In fact we didn't know who Bangabahadur was (probably elephants don't use nicknames/names) and after his death we almost forgot who Bangabahadur is. That elephant was stuck in Bangladesh which ended in the tragic death of him. So Bangabahadur is only known for 1 event. So in this case you may start an article about that event! While Hero Alom is a guy who has always been in the news, sometimes being a Youtube celebrity, sometimes his videos, sometimes his interviews etc etc. So this guy is not a 1 event person. And now-a-days he has gained a huge amount of fanbase at Youtube, so this guy is notable. --PGhosh (Hello!) 18:26, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So you don't know that any media can lie, make mistakes, even take side, be biased in their judgement, propagate specific propaganda, and spread hatred, violence whether that is Al Jazeera or Bal Jazeera, Time (magazine), The Washington Post, The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Huffington Post or Zee News and so on. So you don't know what they can do or how they can use clickbaits to attract click-throughs. So now I admit the words of Zee News is the words right out of the Vedas; they are truisms, and from India, they did so much research on us that they know much more about us than we ourselves know about ourselves. Please study a little on media studies, then talk like that. Thanks. Smmmaniruzzaman (talk) 10:39, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

With due respects to you, I don't need to know media's policy, I don't need to know that they lie and I also don't need to know how they make news; in this article's concern. I just want to know whether it fulfills the WP:RS or not. If it fulfills it then I don't need to know any more. I would count them as reliable and OK.
Moreover I would dearly request you to go through WP:RS once then please post comments. Cause, you just give one example from Prothom Alo (that news may be non-true; which is yet to be proved) saying "utter falsehood", which were reported with the reference of Yahoo India and you are starting to believe every media produces false news. Now let me also tell you, it's not a proven fact that was a false news, So innocent until proven guilty. That's why that too will be counted as a reliable news until proven wrong.
Finally If the one's you mentioned above is not reliable then probably no media in the world is reliable, cause everybody thinks about business and sometimes make mistakes in producing news. Just one bad buzz (needs to be verified!) from Prothom Alo doesn't make it unreliable. By the was it's not a good practice to remove a comment fully and make a new comment at that place in discussions. Do use the <s>Strike Through </s> option instead! --PGhosh (Hello!) 14:25, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Wow! But I haven't heard anything from either PA or any other source that it's false! Though I myself can search I too know that, but still I don't think that proves it wrong. Cause unless it's been granted, mine or yours opinion don't count. Anyways let's agree that news is wrong, but what is next? That specific link is NOT used in the article. So I don't know why this dead rubber is being discussed now and then!
The next point you said is why Zee News should not be considered a good source! Well would you be kind enough to propose this at WT:RS or WP:VPP. Cause until now the rule says the different thing. The official website is a part of the Zee News channel, so that's surely trustworthy! Moreover the news we are discussing about was published by the Zee Media Bureau, so henceforth the news too is OK. Now I request you, please understand one or two bad buzz doesn't make a media non-reliable. Every Media has history like this. You see there's a long list at BBC controversies, but that doesn't make either BBC Channel or bbc.com non-reliable. So that's the same for Zee News. And if still you tell Zee News not trustworthy, then probably, no media in the world is trustworthy.
Your third point was about Bengali Wikipedia's AFD. Dude, frankly what Bengali Wikipedia people thinks, can't be counted at English Wiki. Cause this discussion is going on at English Wiki, so what people at that place think has no value. Moreover I, myself is also a native Bangladeshi and Bengali speaking person, then I think different! Still I'm enlightening some parts of that Bengali Wiki Debate;
You added {{Not a ballot}} at the top of this page. Oh! one thing, you may counted wrong. Actually, 10 people commented there, with 6 saying delete and 4 saying not delete (one of them is me). So what I was telling, since this is not a ballot, so the logic of 4 others should be counted and those 4 are also Bengali speaking person. So the situation you are saying is not like that and I too am aware of the situation. --PGhosh (Hello!) 14:53, 26 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • You people whatever have said , all are half truth. Hero Alom is man of inspiration of thousands around the globe , so it should be remained in Wikipedia. Despite being left by his parents, poor health , poor financial condition of Hero Alom , he has erected to entertainment industry as a Hero.Kalamya (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 08:38, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment:- I know that Hero Alam has recieved a lots of negative publicity, he is not one whom can I admire at all. But the matter is here that he is notable so we should not delete it and please guys prothom alo is a reliable source it is one of the leading newspaper of Bangladesh just one false news can't made a reliable news paper to unreliable.Ominictionary (talk)

  • Keep. Similar to Worldbruce above... I think the topic is cringeworthy and vandal-bait, and the article is currently of bad quality. But the guy has received enough media attention to be notable, so the article should stay. 1292simon (talk) 08:26, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The article may very well remain a magnet for spamming and other trolling-type behaviors for a while, and it certainly needs some work as of right now, but that doesn't change the fact that as an individual Alom is broadly notable. He's not just covered by the likes of mere random blogs. We're talking about well-known, widely looked at publications such as The Daily Star. The article should be kept. It needs work, but it shouldn't be deleted. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 11:30, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Japanese dubbing roles of Western live action movies are not notable. An unsourced or poorly written bio means failure of WP:BIO, even in JP wiki. Now, assuming that the subject's bio in JP wiki is actually ok, if the subject is deemed to only be notable as the role of Sengoku, then regardless of how sizable the bio is, it still won't save the article. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 15:26, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The assertion that "Japanese dubbing roles of Western live action movies are not notable" is simply that - an assertion. Live-action dubbing is an important part of film industries in many non-English-speaking countries. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 23:04, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's not just an assertion. It has been used as an argument to delete two articles off of the encyclopedia. See AFD 1 and AFD 2. Your claim on dubbing being an important part of film industries in non-English speaking countries is again, completely baseless, as pointed out in AFD 1. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 01:00, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Just one article, but there are plenty more. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 01:10, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Irrelevant. It doesn't say anything about Japanese dubbing of foreign films, which is the main concern here. Also irrelevant in the sense that you have not provided more sources that proves your point. This is a classic argument of WP:THEREMUSTBESOURCES. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 01:46, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Originally I was going to pick ups on this point but between the difficulty in finding coverage one way or another, the literal handful of people who have western notability for their dubbing of live action (I can only name two) and the credit roles here it doesn't seem necessary to go over. I fully agree about the concept, but keeping the article over it with those credits doesn't make much sense. SephyTheThird (talk) 11:14, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You don't have proof that it is, and you're ignoring the fact that it has been used as an effective argument in two AFDs, which are listed above. Read again. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 03:03, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The topic is this afd. WP doesn't operate by stare decisis. By the way, it'd be great if you dropped the condescention.--Adam in MO Talk 03:11, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't hurt to reference previous AFDs on what is constituted as an effective argument. If it has been proven to be an effective argument, it could easily be applied on all similar articles. But because you haven't, your counterargument means nothing and it is weightless. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 03:19, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Well, we will see how that works out here. Regardless you can drop the condescension.--Adam in MO Talk 03:22, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Using other deleted articles as a justification for deleting a different article is not a particularly good reasoning. Every article is different and should be viewed as an individual. Stating that your argument has already lead to a deletion is a clear implication of bias.SephyTheThird (talk) 11:14, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Sengoku (One Piece). Dub roles are fine, that he is mentioned as the Sorting Hat for the Harry Potter film dubs is sourced. [30] Buzzer Beater role as Yoshimune is main cast. But other than that, his main role is from One Piece, which he is strongly associated with, and that isn't much to write an article. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 07:29, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect The dubbing of western works are not immediately notable enough. The truth is if there is any coverage it is almost certainly buried in Japanese media coverage which is likely to be unavailable. If someone comes across something that shows they are notable then it can be restored and added. Sengoku is his main notable role so this is the likely outcome. This should never have been an afd as it would have been safely covered by WP:BRD.SephyTheThird (talk) 11:14, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As it is, Ayyappancs links are shown to be nothing but these same exact sources: Interviews, announcements and mentions, none of that is what satisfies our set established policies. What's worse is the sheer fact we've establishes these such publications are largely paid for publishing such materials by the subjects themselves, hence also unacceptable.

I had (obviously incorrectly) speedied this a year and a half ago when it was a new article, the speedy was declined and it stayed there, until recent edits popped it in my watchlist again.

The obvious concern is notability, in particular WP:AUTHOR. the only book review I found was [31], which I think falls under "passing mention". Maybe writing for children/young adults explains the lack of "real" review in the press, but well, we need some source. TigraanClick here to contact me 15:33, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be some confusion here. Looking at GNG, and the secondary resources listed in the article -- suitable coverage is supplied, over a range of time, as well. Once again, the original claim for this AfD was the lack of credible resources, and I believe we have to review the references listed and used for this subject -- as they are all credible secondary sources, which meets GNG. Furthermore, the subject's work is also housed in institutional archives, which meets WP:AUTHOR criteria. As noted in GNG: "If it is likely that significant coverage in independent sources can be found for a topic, deletion due to lack of notability is inappropriate." -- And since we have coverage in independent sources for this subject, I feel that this discussion is being misled. Pclibuser (talk) 22:25, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
1. Secondary sources are supplied for the subject from a range of time (1998 - 2015). This fulfills WP:SUSTAINED and WP:NOTTEMPORARY
2. Secondary sources include a book with a devoted chapter to the subject, and specialized websites deemed as authoritative and credible in relationship to the scope of this subject. As a reminder,WP:GNG notes that "There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected. Sources do not have to be available online or written in English." This article has 14 references.
3. Per WP:FILMMAKER, although not a requirement for notability, permanent holdings in a galleries/museums is an indicator of notability. UCLA, Frameline, and One Archives all hold this subject's works.
4. If there is still concern about the notability of this subject, per WP:FAILN, deletion is a last resort. Maybe there are other paths that should be taken instead of deletion.

I hope this helps to clarify and resolve the concerns about this particular article. Pclibuser (talk) 00:00, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A BLP that lacks reliable secondary sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. A WP:PORNBIO pass is questionable, as the XRCO Award for "Unsung Swordsman" is a lower tier award, given that the "swordsman" is unsung.

The AfD in June 2015 2016 closed as "keep" (which was a bit surprising to me) on the strength of the argument for the two Swordsman awards. The consensus at adult entertainment AfDs seems to have shifted since then, and much more scrutiny is given to sources (or lack thereof) vs a technical SNG pass. The AfD was not well attended, so perhaps a new discussion is warranted. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:00, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: I just looked at the first AfD (via the above link) and that AfD appears to have been just a few months ago (in 2016), NOT 2015 as the nominator stated; so I don’t know what “consensus at adult entertainment AfD could have shifted” in a few months. The first AfD was opened on 7 June 2016, closed on 15 June 2016 with all 3 new editors voting (in a 7 day period) "Keep." All 3 editors gave very good reasons for their "Keep" vote. These reasons still seem valid to me. There were no “Delete" votes for the first AfD (other than the nominator, Atlantic306). One of the editors of this second AfD (Atlantic306) voting for a “Delete" is the nominator in the first AfD. The other editor (86.17.222.157) voting for a Delete in this second AfD added some negative comments in the first AfD, but did not vote. The nominator of this second AfD states that "the first AfD was not well attended so perhaps a new discussion is warranted," but I would think that 3 editors voting (within a 7 day period; and all voting "Keep") would be considered "well attended." The 3 editors that voted "Keep" in the first AfD were as follows: User:Rebecca1990, User:Wikiuser20102011 and User:Guy1890. User: Zootsuit1941 Zootsuit1941 (talk) 22:48, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sending an article to AfD less than 6 months after it's been Kept at a very recent AfD is at least mildly disruptive and likely indicative that the subject here just isn't liked by the nominator of this AfD. Guy1890 (talk) 06:22, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It is perfectly normal, and not at all disruptive, for the suitability of a topic for Wikipedia to be reassessed after such a time, especially when the previous discussion was far from unanimous, and the nominator gave policy-based reasons for deletion without giving any indication of any like or dislike. You may disagree with those reasons, but you shouldn't try to read the nominator's mind and characterise them as "just isn't liked". And surely the word "unsung" in the name of this award equates pretty well to "unnotable" in Wikipedia-speak, because both indicate a lack of coverage in reliable sources. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 18:47, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as fails PORNBIO & GNG. –Davey2010Talk 23:41, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Porn is one of those subject areas where we have a tremendous problem with the active editors trying to create their own special exemptions from having to actually get the topics over WP:GNG — such as an excessive reliance on XBIZ (a user-generated industry PR trade blog) in lieu of actual reliable sourcing, or the notion that even though any other award in any other field of endeavour has to be sourced to media coverage about that award before winning or being nominated for it counts as a notability claim, porn should somehow get a special dispensation to use the award's own self-published website about itself as the source. (Never mind that the existence of reliable media coverage about an award is how we determine whether that award is notable enough to count as a notability claim — in the isolated standalone case of porn, we're supposed to accept that something is a notable award just because somebody asserts that it is, regardless of its sourceability or lack thereof.) I want to stress that I'm no prude — I'm as much an aficionado of porn as the next horny single guy — but at the Wikipedia level, porn does not get to make up its own special subject-specific exemptions from having to follow the same content rules as any other subject area. SNGs do not create exemptions from having to pass GNG on the sourcing, but serve merely to clarify the types of things that are accepted as notability claims — but the claim does still have to be sourceable to a GNG-passing volume of reliable source coverage before the SNG is actually passed, and SNGs do not confer exemptions from RSability just because passage of an SNG has been claimed. Bearcat (talk) 18:10, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - XBIZ is not "a user-generated industry PR trade blog"...it is merely an adult film industry trade magazine that is certainly not "user-generated" by any means. The idea that any awarding organization cannot be used as a reliable source for who won (or was nominated for) one of its awards is an argument that has been dismissed out of hand here at AfD for many years now. The specific award ceremony in question here (the XRCO Awards) and its winners have been covered in the past by the likes of the LA Times and several books. Guy1890 (talk) 05:33, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody ever said that an award's own self-published website about itself is untrustworthy for verification of who won its own awards. But what an award's own self-published website about itself cannot do is constitute evidence in and of itself that the award is notable enough to make the fact of winning it a valid notability claim in an article about a person. The latter most certainly does depend on the extent to which reliable sources which are independent of the awarding organization's own self-published content about itself do or don't treat the winning of that award as news — the extent to which an award makes its winners wikinotable because they won it is a factor of the extent to which the media do or don't devote their time and resources to creating news content about "so-and-so wins XBIZ award".
By comparison, winning an Academy Award constitutes notability for a film industry worker because the media covers the Academy Awards as news, and winning a Giller Prize constitutes notability for a writer because the media covers the Gillers as news — yet lots of other film or literary awards (e.g. "Star Wars Fan Film Awards") also exist which don't get media coverage, and thus don't count as notability claims for their winners just because the award organization issued a press release or named the winners on its own website. If "the award is verifiable on the granting organization's own website" were all it took to hand an award "makes its winners encyclopedic" status, we would have to start keeping articles about winners of local "battle of the bands" competitions and high school poetry contests — the extent to which media treat the winning of that award as news is what defines the difference between an award that is notable enough to make its winners notable for winning it and an award that is not.
What the award's own website about itself is good for is verifying things in case of conflict — for example, if two different sources are in conflict about which year a person won their award, then the award's own website is the ideal place to look for verification of which source was right and which source was wrong. But the award cannot self-publish itself into being notable enough to make its winners eligible for articles on the basis of having won it, if the winners can't actually be RSed over GNG. Bearcat (talk) 16:00, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
One of the citations for one of the relevant award wins in this case here is cited from XBIZ (not from the awarding organization itself - XRCO), which is a reliable source that is both independent of the awarding organization and of the subject of this Wikipedia article here. The notability standard primarily in question here is PORNBIO ("Has won a well-known and significant industry award."), which has been intentionally modeled off of the ANYBIO standard ("has received a well-known and significant award or honor"). The standard here is basically whether or not the awarding organization itself is "well-known" within the adult film industry (XRCO certainly is) and whether or not the specific award category is "significant" (or basically a major award, which is also true in this case). The "Star Wars Fan Film Awards", local "battle of the bands" competitions, and high school poetry contests are obviously not well-known and significant awards. Also, arguments that basically boil down to that something just isn't encyclopedic, which is unfortunately what many anti-porn arguments basically boil down to in the end, aren't to be given any weight here at AfD. Guy1890 (talk) 04:54, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The standard for whether an award win passes WP:ANYBIO is whether the person got over WP:GNG by garnering media coverage for the award win or not — "won an award" does not create or confer an exemption from having to source the winner over GNG. Like any other SNG, ANYBIO cannot be passed just by asserting that it's passed — it is passed only when reliable source coverage can be shown to properly support its passage. And while you're right that the Star Wards Fan Film Awards, local battle of the bands competitions and high school poetry contests are not well-known or significant awards, the lack of a GNG-passing volume of media coverage for those awards is what makes them not well-known or significant. We don't apply personal opinions to determine what's a significant award and what isn't — we measure the media coverage that does or doesn't exist about the award and its winners. If the award gets a GNG-passing volume of media coverage, then it's a significant and notability-conferring award regardless of whether any individual editor personally cares about it or not — and if it doesn't get a GNG-passing volume of coverage, then it's not a significant or notability-conferring award no matter how desperate an editor may be to create new GNG-dodging inclusion criteria in his pet subject area. Anybody can come along and assert that any award, even the battle of the bands competition or the Star Wars Fan Film, is "significant" enough to merit an ANYBIO pass — the depth of media coverage that does or doesn't exist about the award is how we determine whether that assertion is right or wrong. Bearcat (talk) 16:29, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"the lack of a GNG-passing volume of media coverage for those awards is what makes them not well-known or significant"...no, that's what makes those awards non-notable. There's been a longstanding difference at AfD between a notable award (or award ceremony - one that simply might have a Wikipedia article written about it) and whether or not those awards are "well-known and significant", which is a higher standard than just being notable. I'm sorry, but these are longstanding guidelines that shouldn't have to be explained to anyone whose spent any significant amount of time at AfD in this (or really any other) subject area. "Anybody can come along and assert that any award, even the battle of the bands competition or the Star Wars Fan Film, is 'significant' enough to merit an ANYBIO pass"...no, they really can't. AfDs like this run on consensus, and one is never going to get consensus for those kind of claims. Guy1890 (talk) 08:33, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, anybody most certainly can come along and simply assert that any award in existence is "significant" enough to merit an ANYBIO pass — for someone who staked so much of this comment on what should or shouldn't have to be "explained to anyone who's spent any significant amount of time at AFD", you sure don't seem all that aware that AFD routinely sees "votes" on the order of "Keep because he won the [Star Wars Fan Film Award/North Palookaville Battle of the Bands/Jackson Collegiate High School Poetry Contest/Employee of the Month at Arby's] and therefore passes ANYBIO". It is an argument that can be attempted for any award that exists at all, and actually has been tried for many more awards than we actually accept as "notability because award" passes — whether we take the claim seriously or not is determined by whether or not reliable sources can be shown which prove that the award is really as significant and noteworthy as the claimant asserts that it is. And, conversely, it is entirely possible for someone else to argue that even a highly notable award like the Giller Prize or the Prix Goncourt is not a well-known or significant award because they've never personally heard of it before — yes, it's a stupid and ethnocentric argument, but it's one that can be, and actually has been, seen in real AFD discussions too. So in both cases, the determining factor is not the mere assertion of whether an award is "well-known and significant" or not — it's "can the depth of reliable source coverage be located to demonstrate how well-known and significant the award really is or isn't?" Bearcat (talk) 17:09, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete.Subject fails PORNBIO and the GNG. Whether an award is sufficiently well-known and significant to indicate presumptive notability depends both on the awarding organization and the award category. The standard is a proxy for whether award recipients are likely to have generated enough independent reliable coverage to satisfy GNG requirements. An award as an "unsung" performer is premised on the idea that the subject has been inadequately covered, a point reinforced in the case by the absence of reliable sourcing. A Gbooks search turns up only one passing mention; a GNews search turns up only an isolated quote (aside from a castlist or three). Even if the award were enough to technically pass the SNG, that would be overridden by the lack of the independent reliable sourcing needed to sustain a BLP. And most XBIZ coverage, whatever the subject, is client-generated, not independent; XBIZ is a component of a PR business, AdNet Media, and extensively publishes/republishes its client's press releases/PR copy, sometimes with minor touchups. There is some independent journalism in its magazine, but not much, and it is difficult to identify that relatively small share of its output. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

Recently added Polska Times content appears to be citing to tabloid-like content as well. The best I could find was TMZ and Wikipedia does not generally cite to tabloids.

  • Weak delete. Uh, Polish celebrity - hardly. In addition to the English language article in a minor Polish-American newspaper, I checked Polish language coverage. All I see is an article in regional (provincial) newspaper (Kurier Lubelski (pl:Kurier Lubelski) [32]), a single paragraph at a news section of a bigger portal onet.pl, and a bunch of articles in tabloid Super Express. Borderline at best, and frankly, given that majority of coverage comes from tabloids, trade journals and a single local newspaper, well, I think we usually lean towards delete with no other arguments, and as the remaining question should be whether she fails PORNBIO - and nobody disputed the nominator's claim she is not.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:50, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. No genuine international notoriety or celebrity. Such claims are based on unreliable tabloidery, including one source whose extensively referenced native-language Wikipedia article [33] points out its reputation for "misconduct and disregard for the rules of journalistic ethics" and "the administration of untruth and creat[ion of] fictional material". What's happened here is fairly straightforward: a flurry of posts on social media claimed (without any credible evidence) that the winner of a quite minor beauty pageant ("Miss Polonia Manhattan") had become a porn performer.

  • I wouldn't rely on an outside wiki article to determine reputation as there is potential for coatracking, and I can't track the underlying sourcing (if there is any and whether it's from competition or an actual academic journal). Even the best of newspapers, most notably the New York Times, have had journalistic failings. I see these populist foreign papers that are in tabloid formats to be the equivalent of something like the New York Post which has never been outright rejected as a source for wikipedia.

Comment Hi @Oakshade: it's got nothing to do with liking or not, I have no personal opinion about the singer but from the page's information and from what i could find on the web she does not fulfill the necessary criteria in WP:NMUSIC.

The result was delete. The amount of sourcing in existence that mentions the subject's name in relation to their part in a show is irrelevant, the requirement (as noted at WP:GNG) is whether or not those sources cover the subject "directly and in detail". As no sign of this being the case has been presented by the editor requesting the article's retention, it is found that this article's subject lacks the requisite notability for inclusion in this encyclopedia.

Non notable actress, Found a few mentions about her role in Corrie but can't find anything substantial, As she played Sarah-Louise Platt for the past 12 years it should probably be redirected to there however I'll let the community decide, Fails NACTOR & GNG, –Davey2010Talk 19:00, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • "There is a lot of where-are-they-now coverage on her" - I wouldn't call one result from The Irish Mirror alot, Having looked through the searches again only result is actually about Lynsay with the rest of the sources being about Tina O Brien so she fails GNG (I forgot to add above but there may well be sources offline however that's a wild guess but If I were to put money on it I would say there wasn't anything much better offline either)
NACTOR states the following: Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.
Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following.
Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.
Well A) She's not been in multiple programmes (She's been in various Corrie spinoffs but you may aswell say that's all one programme), B) She doesn't have a fan base, and C) Not entirely sure how you'd prove C ... So she actually fails NACTOR & GNG
Ofcourse If you or anyone can find anything I'd be more than happy to withdraw but as it stands now she unfortunately fails both NACTOR and GNG. –Davey2010Talk 14:58, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GNG dos't make the requirement that a single source have extremely in-depth coverage, just that there is enough in-depth coverage available even if it's from a combination of multiple sources. That's why this topic passes GNG. Sometimes a person can just be notable for playing just one part, especially if the rold is very significant and spanning over a decade like in this case. Hanging on the one word "multiple" of a sub-guidline and sub-clause like WP:NACTOR is just a classic case of WP:GAMETYPE. --Oakshade (talk) 06:00, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
But that's the point there is no in-depth coverage .... they're all just trivial mentions (One source in the article is great however the article cannot solely rely on one source), I'm not trying to Game the system here I'm simply going by what NACTOR explicitly says, Various actresses have been deleted due to the lack of coverage and the one role and being quite honest I'm not seeing anything different here, Ofcourse I have no objections to this being redirected but as it stands they're not notable (and it's highly unlikely they ever will be). –Davey2010Talk 09:43, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The combination of the multitude of sources makes it in-depth. And sorry, but going by what NACTOR explicitly says is just ignoring common sense and sticking to the letter of a cherry-picked buried sub-clause whilst ignoring the principle of the guidelines as a whole which is the definition of WP:GAMETYPE.--Oakshade (talk) 21:50, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Except there isn't a multitude of sources ... there's barely sod all, Nope I'm going by a notability guideline which is followed by everyone on every single BLP AFD, She fails NACTOR as well as GNG. –Davey2010Talk 22:05, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually there are a multitude of sources.[50][51][52][53] which in combination equate to significant per WP:GNG. Just repeating "fails GNG" and willingly participating in WP:GAMETYPE isn't going to change that.--Oakshade (talk) 22:35, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Problem is those can't be used as they're all tabloid newspapers (It does state here you can use them with caution however I've been told more than once that that shouldn't be used full stop (I believe I asked at the help desk however that could've been this year, last year) , I personally still believe she does fail NACTOR & GNG but we obviously disagree so perhaps it's best we just move on otherwise we're going to be here forever debating this :), BTW I apologise for hatting this it's just usually long dicussions do get hatted, Anyway thanks, –Davey2010Talk 23:13, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Fails WP:NACTOR. Has played one character on television. Searches for "fans" turns up nothing to indicate a fan base. All searches for "Lynsay King" reference that she played the one character or "where is she now" type of articles mostly in tabloids. A search of the character she played "Sarah-Louise Platt " actually mentions another actor, Tina O'Brien, more frequently than the subject. Also appears to fail WP:GNG as well.

  • Keep, She had appeared as Pamela in 65 episodes of Tribes. A major role as one of the leading actors in Appointment with Fear. A significant part as Taffi Fisher in Dreams of Gold: The Mel Fisher Story, one of the leading actors in Smart Alec as Samantha. She was one of the main actors in Ghoulies II, playing the part of Nicole. She had a decent part in Two Moon Junction as Carolee. She was also a significant cast member in Pumpkinhead playing the part of Maggie. She also had some good roles in various television series like Family Ties and Doogie Howser, M.D., etc. No problem giving a Keep vote here but I have to say that it doesn't come as any surprise that this attracted an AFD nomination. The article is a shabby mess! Karl Twist (talk) 08:48, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing I would like more than to save this article, but can you find anything more in Wikipedia:Reliable sources than a list of roles? A news article about her? Even some interviews?

  • It doesn't matter when her roles finished or she stopped working. She worked for 14 years from 1981 to 1995. She had more than a good handful of significant roles.

Good luck. I would request the closing admin let you finish... however, for now, it looks like you're just adding lists of roles, either very minor roles, or moderate roles in very minor films (most of the "one of the group of teenagers killed by the slasher" type). --GRuban (talk) 18:41, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi GRuban, while some of the roles I have added are minor or moderate, some of the others are major roles and she has been female lead at least two films as well as major supporting actress in three others. Three of the horror films have significant cult following and value. Already as a recognized actress in the 80's horror genre (Pale in comparison to 60's and 70's horror IMO, but each to their own), her characters are recognized and remembered. This is why she is included on the bonus-features for the "Ghoulies / Ghoulies II" Blu-ray Review. When this article was nominated for deletion, it consisted of nothing more than a C&P of IMDB listing and just 2 lines of intro about he. All of that was written in a messy misleading way. It resembled something the dog or cat had thrown up on the kitchen floor. Karl Twist (talk) 08:42, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Similar problem with so many "oldie" Filipino actors. Sources are few and far in between as Philippine publications from that period are not digitized by Google. Regardless if they're only "incidental" mentions he satisfies WP:NACTOR. He is mentioned prominently as one of the first "greats" in Philippine cinema. The list of films he was in are all notable. He is in the starring/top-billing roles in almost all of them (usually paired with fellow-award winning actor Anita Linda). See surviving posters at [59], [60], [61], [62], [63] (the websites are blogs, but the posters/pages they publish are not). Lastly and most importantly, he won the Best Actor award from the Maria Clara Awards in 1951 for Kamay ni Satanas. Maria Clara is the first national award-giving body for Cinema in the Philippines. Here's a quote from an article in PEP:
The award-giving body's Best Actor was Reynaldo Dante for the movie Kamay ni Satanas (1950). Reynaldo was among the less known matinee idols of the 1930s before maturing as a dramatic actor in the 1940s. As part of the Philippine movies' early batch of matinee idols Reynaldo starred with 1930s hunk Leopoldo "The Great Profile" Salcedo, Domingo Principe, Teddy Belarmino, Ben Perez, Mat Ranillo and Jose Padilla Jr. in Magna East Productions' Hindi Kami Laos (1962).
