  • Delete. While Tallinn is a large and prominent enough city that its councillors might pass WP:NPOL if they could be properly sourced and substanced, there's no content here at all about anything but the criminal charges themselves. And, in fact, all but one of the reference links deadlink back to the publication's front splash page, making it impossible to properly verify whether they cover him in any other context, or just address the criminal allegations. Which makes this a WP:BLP1E, as well as a WP:PERP violation: criminal charges are not in and of themselves grounds for an article, if there's no other substantive claim of notability being made at all. And if even the Estonian Wikipedia can't be arsed to keep an article about an Estonian politician, there's no compelling reason for the English one to do so either. No prejudice against recreation in the future if someone can write and source something better — i.e. less unbalanced — than this.

  • Keep It is an obscure British BBC TV program, that is likely to be commissioned by the Beeb. Quite a lot of these older children's program don't have listings. They are put on, tried out and if not successful, forgotten about. That doesn't mean notability isn't inherent. There 10,000s of these types of articles floating around WP, and until notability is established. I suggest keep for the moment. scope_creep (talk) 00:08, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Notability isn't inherent. We need to establish that this is a notable program. This isn't done by claiming it is "likely to be commissioned by the Beeb" or that there are other articles like this one. It is done by showing there is significant coverage in reliable sources. ~ GB fan 10:25, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Article was created in February 2017. If notability hasn't been proven yet, it won't be. Also just because other similar stuff exists, it doesn't "inherently" mean this should. — Wyliepedia 02:42, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I agree there is a problem with sources for this article. For instance my memory might be playing tricks, but I don't recall this being shown on CITV or any terrestrial broadcaster. I do vaguely remember the Beano plugging a Dennis series on the Children's Channel c 1990. The thing is if this series is as the article describes it should be notable in that it is the first TV series to feature this well known comic character. Unfortunately, the only reference I can find other than this article and IMDB comes in a Dennis the Menace collection from c 2012 which mentions there was a puppet series based on the character (which I assume is this one). I don't have the history of the Beano that was produced in 2008 but, it might be worth seeing if there is coverage in it. Dunarc (talk) 15:59, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, we don't entirely - we do allow tolerance for historical topics that pre-date the web.

List of the longest gaps between film sequels

List of the longest gaps between film sequels (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)

This list is 100% original research. There are two sources cited in the article: One is the main page for an entertainment site (which may have said something about one of the films in question at some point in the past, but I cannot find anything relevant now. (The source is cited for the note that the entry on the list apparently should not be on the list: "Despite its title, the film is not a sequel to Aashiqui, and the only similarity is that 'both are music-based romantic films'.") The other discusses the Mary Poppins sequel, but does not mention the unusually large gap.

Searching the 'net, I find several sources discussing lengthy gaps between original and sequel (TRON, Blade Runner, Star Wars, etc.), but none claiming to be THE longest gap or a list of the longest gaps.

How do we know Bambi is the champ in this category? We don't. All we know is that someone added it here and no one has proposed anything with a longer gap.

Several of the films currently listed use spin-offs, prequels, made for TV and direct to video films. Several use "unofficial" sequels, such as the Wizard of Oz where the proposed sequel is not related to the original, the the book the second is based on is a sequel to the book the first is based on. Does that make "Raise the Titanic" a sequel to "A Night to Remember"?

With no source for determining what does and does not "count", I am left to wonder why a made for TV miniseries would count but a radio play, book, etc. wouldn't. If a TV show can be a sequel for a film, why isn't "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" a sequel to the original "Star Trek"?

Bottom line: Someone was intrigued by the idea that this article represents, but the sources simply do not exist to support an article. SummerPhDv2.0 21:52, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Long-delayed sequels are a notable topic.[1][2][3][4][5] A list shouldn't be deleted just because the criteria are arguable or it may be hard to complete; these things can be debated or agreed through talk pages. And if you're worried about "longest" rename to "long". --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:25, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - You seem to be suggesting that this should be an entirely different article. The current article claims to list the "longest" gaps: a discrete claim. The article you suggest is altogether different, as a casual look at your suggested sources confirms. Your first source, "PAJBA" seems to be a blog: no "about" page, no copyright notice. Its claim of the "longest" gaps jumps all over our list 1, 7, 32, 31, 39, 62, 115, 70...
Your second source puts "The Best Man" first on its list. Ours has it at #162. Next is #132, 136, 96, 70...
Source #3 doesn't claim to list the "longest", giving a list of 6 "long delayed" sequels.
Source #4 is the "most absurd gaps". There third gap in this list of sequels is Star War VI to Star Wars I, a sixth degree prequel.
  1. 5 doesn't give a list or claims of the "longest", but is an article about the concept of sequels after decades have passed.
The three of your sources give us a hodgepodge of long delayed sequels that we would probably package in a list format to make it look like a countdown of the longest, similar to if we change List of films considered the worst into List of films that weren't good or wrote List of businesses that made a lot of money.
There might be material to write about Long delayed film sequels, if we can resist the urge to claim we have created a definitive list. To the extent that reliable sources discuss prequels, made for TV and direct to video, we can do the same. We might even find sources tying the distant cousin films. We do not, however, have a verifiable list of the top ten (or 20, or 200...) longest gaps. We also don't have objective, sourced criteria for a list of long delays. - SummerPhDv2.0 16:14, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: I'm sympathetic to the nom here. This is a loosey-goosey definition very badly compromised by a near-complete lack of sources. Who says that there weren't any "sequels" between Film X and film X2? Define "sequel" -- do we include films in canon? Fan films? Have foreign sources been scoured? Is a "film franchise" a unitary thing, and the sequel has to be made by the rights holder of the first film? No ... I wouldn't even consider keeping such a list without 95%+ of the entries sourced, and it's more like 5%. Nha Trang Allons! 19:31, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep All it needs is strong criteria and maybe a name change. It appears to now use 10 years as the length. What counts as a "sequel", (Note, the lead does not use the term sequel, but "consecutive installments of a film franchise".) I think the list needs to be parred down. Most of the tv shows removed. If it is film franchise, the "films" should have either had a cinematic release or was shot with the intent to have a release. As for citations, all that is needed is to prove: the two films are in a franchise, there is no other film entry between them, when they were released, and they are films. Zginder 2017-09-01T07:11:57Z
Comment - List of films produced with the intention to release them in theaters that are part of a franchise with no film in between them with a gap of 10 or more years is the reason we don't have List of United States legislators who are part of a family with a gap of 50 or more years between legislators. While we might have a source saying that Billy Smith is the first member of Congress in his family since his great-great-grandfather in 1840, we don't have sources discussing the topic. It might be worth including in the article about Billy, but we don't have sourced criteria for a list. - SummerPhDv2.0 15:53, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I am not proposing we use a title like that. Many lists and articles are titled slightly wrong because, it a title that will get more searches. I think something along the lines of "List of long gaps between film sequels". Notice wikt:sequel includes the usage of a prequel or other film in a franchise. Zginder 2017-09-02T02:34:13Z
The point: We do not have any sources discussing films produced with the intention to release them in theaters that are part of a franchise with no film in between them with a gap of 10 or more years. We have a handful of sources discussing "long gaps" between sequels. That their varying criteria are is not explained anywhere is not an invitation for us to create our own. - SummerPhDv2.0 03:09, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
We only need sources for the dates of the films release, which for most of them is the same place. Zginder 2017-09-03T11:09:06Z
List of tallest buildings and structures is encyclopedic and backed by reliable sources stating which structures are the tallest. This article currently aspires to mirror that, but fails as the sources simply do not exist. List of tall buildings and structures does not exist because "tall" is a vague, relative term (in my neighborhood 5 stories would be very tall, while it would be tiny in Manhattan). Dumping this article and starting a new List of films with long gaps between sequels echos that problem and invites us to create a topic out of thin air: 5, 10, 15 years? Sequels, prequels, spinoffs, soft-reboots, alternate universes? Theatrical release, direct-to-video, made for TV film/miniseries/series? Take your pick from each list and tell me why that version of the list is encyclopedic while other variations of the list are not. - SummerPhDv2.0 17:47, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, most of the lists in List of tallest buildings and structures appear to be mostly or completely unsourced. Yes, there is an official body, but the Wikipedia entry goes way beyond the "official" lists. Zginder 2017-09-08T08:04:14Z

  • Delete Per WP:SYNTH. The concept of "sequel" here is hazy, subjective, and open to interpretation, for example Cinderella II is a direct to video movie with not nearly the same impact as the original Cinderella continues to have.

      • I have removed all the direct to video and TV movies from the page. It seems to be the one thing that everyone for deleting and keeping agrees on. Zginder 2017-09-10T03:05:25Z
  • Delete As per Zxcvbnm; SYNTH and LISTCRUFT. A simple "list of sequels made over 40 years after the original movie" would be better, but is unlikely to be notable either. Power~enwiki (talk) 19:00, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I came here thinking I would likely vote to keep this, but delete. Possibly merge some discussion of the longest gaps into Sequel, but only if they are well-sourced. bd2412 T 02:42, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Could you provide detail as to your reasoning?Zginder 2017-09-08T07:41:07Z
      • I do not find that the article demonstrates the proposition that the existence of a really long gap between sequels is a notable thing to document. A ten, twelve, fifteen year gap doesn't seem all that noteworthy, and there are no sources provided to explain what is considered to be a "long" gap; many of the entries are at least problematic. Also, is a story with a different set of characters set in the same fictional universe a "sequel"? Is a prequel a sequel? Is Superman Returns, with a completely different cast playing the same characters, properly called a "sequel" to Superman IV? There is no basis presented in reliable sources for delineating a list. bd2412 T 02:28, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • As referenced early in the discussion and in the article lead, the word, "sequel", is not to be taken literally. It is shorthand for any additional film to a franchise except for remakes. I would also like to remind you that just because there are some questionable entries does not make the list deletable. If you have a problem with a listing, then remove it or bring it up on the talk page. Zginder 2017-09-13T06:50:12Z
As also referenced earlier in the discussion, maybe the word should be taken literally. Or not. Or somewhere in between. Maybe we should include TV series and/or books/comics and/or miniseries and/or direct to video. Since no reliable sources discuss criteria, maybe anything goes. If you think Gravity is a sequel to Speed 2: Cruise Control, maybe we can create criteria that would allow that. You are suggesting we create a topic for which there are no reliable third-party sources. Having thus fully discarded WP:N and WP:V, we might as well create "List of yucky vegetables". - SummerPhDv2.0 12:42, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Personally I think some editors are overthinking it, and sources are not required (Its a list, go to the film's page and look at the date), but I do fail to see why this particular list should be included in an encyclopedia. L3X1 (distænt write) 12:50, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - The parent article is huge, at over 600kb and often you will find notable or in-depth aspects of certain articles split off into a dedicated article, if for instance the content being split is notable in its own right. I feel in this instance, the libration of Mosul was quite a significant event in its own right. Given the size of the parent article, my suggestion would be to rename the article relating to this AfD to something more mainstream (perhaps to Liberation of Mosul by deleting that redirect first), then cleanup this article and amend the parent article to offer a summary only. In fact, the Battle of Mosul article even has a message since May suggesting a content split, so it may be counter-productive and somewhat regressive to delete this article rather than at least trying to first develop it further. Bungle (talk • contribs) 21:48, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • The size of the main article comes from the daily action recaps, which are really unnecessary there. If there's anything that should be split off, it would be those, into a "Timeline of..." type article. I don't think the sources distinguish between the battle and liberation enough to justify this separate article, especially considering the majority of those currently in this article are either Iranian propaganda (PressTV) or not even related to the end of the battle (most of them being about the beginning, strangely). ansh666 22:58, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, I believe! I created this article hoping that users working on the parent page would soon join in expanding this one too. I for my part primarily used Iranian sources because they are the sources that I often check as an Iranian. The development was undoubtedly a major one both for Iran and Iraq who organized and supplied the main forces on the ground doing the actual fight, as well as the international community that have been dealing with the ISIS threat for years. The article though can be further expanded by additional sources and analysis. The coverage has been significant as a Google result will tell. Ansh is also raising an apparently valid point; whether the sources distinguish between the liberation and the battle enough. Hmmm just telling from the google results, it seems that they do. But if the parent article can be shortened or split off, maybe let's first do that and then decide whether the liberation page should be merged into that, making it one within a standard size. --Expectant of Light (talk) 02:57, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - At the very least this needs to be renamed. Liberation is POV-pushing (though one most Wiki readers agree with) - possibly reconstruction is better. A year or year range should also be in the name (as this is NOT the first time Mosul has be conquered (or per POV liberated) - it changed hands in the past, even the recent past)). Do we have an article on the wider reconstruction efforts in Iraq following the loss of territory by the Islamic State? Do we have articles, on the city level, for other cities that were conquered as part of a campaign? I don't think we have one for Battle of Stalingrad which is much more significant. We do have articles on the country/region level for post-WWII occupations - but not city level I believe. The size problem in Battle of Mosul (2016–17) should be fixed there (and is underway) - it currently goes into a level of detail inappropriate for an 8 month campaign.Icewhiz (talk) 05:08, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There's just really nothing that I'm finding to suggest that this is a notable website. A new search returns 148 results, but nearly all of them are to moneyweb.co.za, so much so that when you exclude them from results you are left with exactly two ([7], [8]). Turns out, both of those show up because the site is mentioned in the comments section, and not in the article at all.

And it turns out that of the moneyweb sites, looks like most/all of those are also showing up because of a registered account named PlatinumWealth.co.za which apparently regularly comments on content there.

It's promotional, but long enough that there's probably something in there conceivably savable, and it makes a claim of significance, but... just doesn't appear to be notable at this time. TimothyJosephWood 19:26, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What the hell are you even on to think that just randomly slapping an adjective before your name makes you pass muster as notable? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 23:57, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is all the more true since a CV is not an indepdent, reliable source. It is a document intentionally created by the subject to boost their academic employability and their reputation. As I mentioned below, if this was a named chair it would have value, but being "distinguished" is just an adjective with no meaning.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:57, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • No, actually, you couldn't. Unless you have an academic website at an accredited university. While you could in theory do so then, if you did so there without actually being one it would be career suicide and if you didn't have tenure you could be sure your appointment would not be continued at best, and at worst the provost of other relevant chief academic officer would fire you instantly. If you had tenure a disclipinary hearing could reasonably be opened against you by the provost. Publicly falsifying credentials is a MASSIVE deal and is pretty much the only thing in North American academics that is guaranteed to land an academic out of a job. There is absolutely zero possibility that this woman is not a distinguished professor. Your comment above displays ignorance of how academia in North America works. These titles matter. A lot. TonyBallioni (talk) 00:56, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry for being British then, they don't appear to be as important here. Edit: also, you still haven't addressed the point that the "distinguished" bit is not from an independent source. Whether it would be career suicide or not is irrelevant and we shouldn't just throw away WP:IRS for the sake of preserving a hagiography. Edit: putting "distinguished" in front of someone's name does not make one distinguished, it just means she has reached a certain level of post-nominals. Surely we should judge her work by its fruits and the impact it has had on her field of study which amounts to very little. DrStrauss talk 21:37, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • DrStrauss: an official press release from the university verifies that she holds the academic rank of distinguished professor [12]. That is independent of her in that it is the official communications arm of her employer verifying that she holds the academic rank of Distinguished Professor. If this was a business person, it wouldn't count towards the GNG because it was a connected source, but the GNG does not apply to academics: we simply need verification that they meet one of the criteria of PROF. For verification of rank, their faculty listing is normally enough for the reasons pointed out above, but now we also have verification from an arm of the organization independent of her. Re: your last point, see David Eppstein's comment below. That someone holds a distinguished professorship is proof that she actually has had a major impact in her field. At my alma mater we had waiting lists for academics to get one of the few distinguished chairs available because of funding concerns. These aren't just handed out like candy. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:17, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep "Distinguished Professor" at a research university is notability according to WP:PROF. Unlike what TPH seems to think, it's a formal title, not a random adjective, and indicates she is an authority in her field. I added the necessary information to support WP:PROF and WP:AUTHOR. Four important books, one held in over a thousand libraries. We'll still need to track down the book reviews which will prove NAAUTHOR, , but that's routine. DGG ( talk ) 05:05, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete Being a "distinguished professor" does not meet any of our guidelines for academic notability. Being a "distinguished professor" is not the same as holding a "named chair", which she clearly does not. So she can not pass on those guidelines. Here contributions to the field of English-langauge literature are not significant enough to meet prong 1 of academic notability. She meets no academic notability criteria, and so is not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:53, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The article is also an appaling failure of GNG. World Cat listing of works is not a sign of notability. Notability as an author derives from indepth reviews of works by the subject. Everything else is works so closely connected with the subject that they are in no way 3rd party independent reliable secondary sources. We cannot have articles built from a subjects CV, websites and directory listings, we need more substantial sources than this.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:56, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
you have confused the GNG with WP:PROF. We only need to show that the person is an authority in the field, or holds a distinguished or named professorship in a major university(or any the other specific alternatives) ; Are you aware that these two guidelines are alternatives, not that the specialized guideline is only a presumption? I don't see why you even mention GNG, when that is not the applicable guideline. DGG ( talk ) 16:56, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: I'm minded of the people who do handsprings over someone being a "Vice President" at a bank, not knowing that banks give out "Associate/Assistant/Deputy/Executive VP" titles to all middle-managers, pretty much like cupcakes at the company picnic. No doubt there are colleges who paste "Esteemed and Exalted Distinguished Professor" titles too, in lieu of higher salaries and plush furnishings in their offices. Does the subject meet the GNG, NAUTHOR or PROF? No. Nha Trang Allons! 19:39, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Important comment: @SwisterTwister and DGG: please note that there is clear consensus that no subject-specific notability guideline...supersedes GNG per this well-attended RfC. DrStrauss talk 21:44, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
nonsense. each guideline can and does specify the relationship. The RfC you mention dealt with NSPORTS, and its conclusion has been repeatedly challenged in individual AfDs. About 2/3 of them have followed the RfC, and 1/3 have not. The consensus on a RfC or anything else is not what is said there, but what is done in consequence. Some RfCs are consistently adopted without dissent. Others are not. We make the rules in WP, and we can make them however we please within basic policy. We can then interpret them however the consensus wishes to, and make whatever exceptions the consensus accepts. (The net result for me is that sports AfDs are so entirely frustrating that I no longer participate, because it is impossible to tell what rules will be used.) The role of the closer is to interpret the discussion, paying attention to policy-based arguments. WP:N is not policy, but a guideline, and attempts to elevate it to a policy have been repeatedly rejected. The GNG is one part of the WP:N guideline, and it says specifically that it is the general rule, not the ultimate rule. The history of AfDs is the history of interpretations and exception and disputes. By now, about a quarter million of them. This is not a rational way to go forward. Fortunately, the people working on AfDs have had a pretty clear idea of how to do better. (Its a little like NSCHOOLS--the RfC said a number of confusing things, and has essentially been ignored at AfD. 99% of the decisions have gone on just as before. Dr.S, what is your basis here--an objection in principle to having different rules, or a dislike for the results? In either case, you're mistaken. A diversity of practices in an intrinsic and desirable characteristic of WP, and the results are determined as they ought to be by the consensus of individuals. I point out that even so, academics are drastically under-represented, and what we need to do is to expand our coverage. You talk as if policy constrained us. It does not. DGG ( talk ) 00:25, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep that RfC was on NSPORT, and what you are saying it did would change the text of WP:N itself, which makes no distinction between SNGs and the GNG. Some of the SNGs make themselves subordinate to the GNG, but PROF does not and the explicit text of N makes it clear that it doesn't have to (see point 1 of the notability test in the summary). There is no backdoor way to change the totality of our most significant sub-policy guideline, and people need to remember that the GNG is only one part of N.
    Re: this case: she holds the academic rank of a distinguished professor at a research university. If she did have to meet WP:GNG, which she doesn't, she inevitably would: you don't get those ranks without there being immense scholarship written about or citing your work. There will be exceptionally credible book reviews about her and peer reviewed papers debating with her thoughts and analyzing them, while discussing her directly. This nomination is based off not knowing how research universities in North America operate. She is a clear pass of PROF, and if I had access to more databases than I currently do I could present a very compelling case for GNG. Part of the reason we have PROF is that the average Wikipedia user doesn't have access to the material needed to assess notability based on coverage so it is a objective test to see what people we know are notable.

  • Keep - Sourcing supports this and it meets all of the applicable guidelines. -- Dane talk 18:31, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete Sourcing supports nothing beyond the fact that the person exists and has had some books published. This is par for the course for all professors, especially in English-language literature. We have nothing that amounts to even passing coverage of her or her work from any source that is not in some way vested in building up her reputation. While the amount she influences her university webpage is hard to say (it is often a very lot), it is still driven by a desire to build a positive reputation and not the type of 3rd-party source all articles, especially BLP articles, need to be based on.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:03, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • question At first glance I don't see that she meets the notability criteria for professors or the general notability guideline. However, she did win the Children's Literature Association Book Award in 2002. I think that should help with notability, but I don't know if it's enough. I added the award and source to her article, but I hope someone will check and make sure I did it correctly--and correct it if I didn't.Sandals1 (talk) 22:11, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy keep. Contrary to what several uninformed participants above state, "distinguished professor" is a specific job title that clearly and explicitly passes WP:PROF#C5. At my university, it is reserved for faculty with a very high level of accomplishment; for instance, for scientists, it is roughly at the level of being in the National Academy of Sciences (and well past the level needed to pass #C1 or #C3 via lesser society fellowships). It's more difficult to assess that level in the humanities but I think we can safely assume that Trites' campus did so. And although the article could use significant improvement, I expect that if that effort were made then it would uncover many reviews of her books, enough to also pass WP:AUTHOR. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:27, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Update: Along with some other improvements, I have added ten reliably published and in-depth book reviews to the article. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:10, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • PS It looks like Illinois State names at most one or (rarely) two distinguished professors per year [13]. Given a faculty size of 1200 and a rough estimate of a career span of 20 years/faculty member, that would mean only one in sixty of their professors could hope to ever achieve this title. Not exactly "like candy". —David Eppstein (talk) 23:27, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Although GS citations are not outstanding (albeit in a very low cited field), library holdings of her books give a pass of WP:Prof. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:30, 5 September 2017 (UTC).[reply]

  • Keep Personage is main subject in multiple independent news reports over 25+ year period. Personage is also active in groups/organisations/charities/council(s) (yes two councils) which have attracted more independent news coverage. this is not counting ample primary sources. NB.

  • Comment. The subject appears to be one of 123 on the Cornwall Council, and most of these other councillors will also have similar, routine political coverage of their opinions and positions in reliable new reports. WP:POLITICIAN exists because not all elected officials are notable for simply doing their jobs, but I'll wait to see if anyone posts a "claim to fame" that rises above this. -Location (talk) 20:49, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Per WP:NPOL. Local political figure with the usual amount of routine coverage. Nothing exceptional or in-depth to demonstrate notability. The sources discussed on the article talkpage are primary sources such as his profile on the Cornwall Council website, his own website or sources such as local blogs - not independent, reliable secondary sources. AusLondonder (talk) 02:38, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Posting another comment to say that ITV and The Guardian are considered national independent reliable sources. [[14]] and [[15]] also please note http://www.cornwalllive.com/ is not a 'local blog', but a regional news outlet. total ignorance in the article of his music career should probably be dealt with also since several books cover him on this topic. A Guy into Books (talk) 07:21, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The ITV and Guardian articles are about a bridge, his opinion as a local councillor is quoted within them. That does not add up to notability. Boleyn (talk) 12:23, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
note there is a KW article for this person also. https://kw.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bert_Biscoe.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Aguyintobooks (talk • contribs) 12:37, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have rewritten the article to reflect this, it seems that his primary career was as a Bard, and that he only went into politics later. A Guy into Books (talk) 12:32, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete unless the article sees significant improvement before close. Nothing here constitutes an automatic presumption of notability just because he exists, if the sourcing present in the article isn't sufficient to get him over WP:GNG — and while it's true that an article can be deemed to pass GNG if adequate sources exist even if the article isn't up to scratch yet, it's not enough to just say that adequate sources exist: one has to show hard evidence that adequate sources exist, such as the actual hard results of an actual search. And even if this does get deleted, that doesn't constitute a permanent ban on his ever being allowed to have an article — if somebody can write and source something better than this, they are allowed to try again. But we can't keep an entirely primary sourced version just because somebody asserts that stronger sources exist somewhere. Bearcat (talk) 19:01, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article was rewritten at this point

This article has now been considerably improved, with new references.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Aguyintobooks (talk • contribs) 11:31, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, it really hasn't been improved. I see far too many references which are to primary sources, Blogspot blogs and/or glancing namechecks of his existence in media coverage of things that aren't him, and not even close to enough that are to reliable source coverage that has him as its subject. Bearcat (talk) 07:31, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree, there are at least three WP:RS sources about him, which is enough for WP:GNG. Most the other comment here refer to WP:NPOL which i can't see being relevant here. A Guy into Books (talk) 23:09, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, three sources aren't enough for GNG if you're shooting for "notable because media coverage of him exists" rather than "notable because he passes a subject-specific inclusion criterion". If three sources were all it took to pass GNG, we'd have to start keeping articles about presidents of church bake sale committees, teenagers who tried out for their high school football team six months after having a toe amputated, and the woman a mile down the road from my parents who found a pig in her yard one day. Bearcat (talk) 17:06, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Three sources will definitively pass GNG in most discussions I have come across, I think its fairly clear NPOL is not the main guideline here. Also we have articles about all of those things. (ok not really, but you get the point). A Guy into Books (talk) 20:13, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The only way three sources can be enough to pass GNG by themselves is if they're supporting passage of a must-include criterion like being an MP or winning an Oscar. If you're going for "notable just because media coverage exists", then no, three sources aren't enough to get there. Three sources quite regularly do exist for lots of people or things that still don't qualify for a Wikipedia article, such as the examples I gave in the preceding comment — hell, three sources exist about me — so three sources aren't enough for GNG if they're not verifying passage of any SNGs. And I was talking about high school athletes, not professional ones, and I meant the woman, not the pig — so your examples don't contradict my point at all. Bearcat (talk) 18:42, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
lmao you checked the links ok can you please explain to me what it takes for a living person to pass GNG. because I have no clue what your standard of proof is, mine is just 3 RS/V/O sources. Consider subject is Published author of (11?) books, bard of the Gorsedh, musician, local councillor, unitary authority councillor, and portfolio holder (boss) of transport in cornwall, responsible for 50m a year budget, trustee on the board of the Royal Cornwall museum, trustee of 3 charities, chairman of 2 charity boards, also is a representative of the Cornish Constitutional Convention. Is considered locally to be a primary figure in the Cornish Idenity debate and is one of the few people who actually speak cornish. A Guy into Books (talk) 19:58, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
My standard is that the person either (a) has a strong claim to passing a subject-specific inclusion standard, or (b) can show that he got quite a lot more reliable source coverage (i.e. quite a bit more than just two, three or four pieces of it) than the woman a mile down the road from my parents got for finding the pig in her yard. Neither of which have been shown as true here yet. And most of what you asked me to consider isn't notability claims at all: local authority councillor is not a notability claim; being trustee or chairman of a charity board is not a notability claim; and on and so forth — those are all things that hundreds of thousands of people in the world, probably into the millions if you consider people who used to hold those roles but don't still because they're retired or dead, so they aren't notability freebies in the absence of quite a lot more reliable source coverage than the woman with the pig got.

You have done a lot of good work on the article, but I do not see the level of coverage to meet WP:COMPOSER or WP:GNG. There are many sources on this - probably too many - but many are not reliable sources, or are primary sources. Being a bard does not make you inherently notable. You commenting on this page so many times can also misleadingly read like different people commenting, and you cannot have multiple keep votes - I have struck your second vote. Please only continue to comment here if you have something new to say. Boleyn (talk) 15:39, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose since you nominated this for deletion that would be your opinion, you do have a record to maintain and all. My point is that this article is well sourced, with at least one secondary sources to back up each use of a primary source, and by my count, 5 good sources that show WP:GNG, Wikipedia should rightfully be stringent in keeping cruft out, but this undoubtedly meets all the relevant guidelines, especially WP:GNG. As far as my comments are concerned, this was closed as keep and then mysteriously reopened, obviously I am going to comment. Α Guy into Books™ § (Message) -  19:25, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why are you citing WP:COMPOSER and ignoring WP:AUTHOR? He's an invited member of the Cornish Gorsedd. For a bard, that is how you get recognised as a bard. Andy Dingley (talk) 19:56, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
He could probably meet WP:AUTHOR, he has published a lot of books, some of which are listed in the article already, I just don't know the precedent for bards, they are a sort of author/poet/musician combo which is hard to place. Α Guy into Books™ § (Message) -  20:05, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Cornwall is a county, not a province or state. NPOL #1 does not include offices held at the county level of government, and England's lack of any level of government between the counties and Westminster does not reify the counties into states or provinces for the purposes of NPOL #1 — whether there are provinces/states or not, county offices are still evaluated under NPOL #2 and only NPOL #2. Bearcat (talk) 16:42, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree, everywhere outside London is 'the provinces' by British definition. And with the exception of Northern Ireland, which is electively a single province (often known as 'The province'), every administrative section of the UK is its own province. I realise you are probably American (actually I just checked, you are Canadian, but same difference for this comparison), where counties are pretty insignificant, but here in the UK that is not the case, what you consider as a county, we call a parish, what you call a state, we call a county. As a point of fact province is the same as county when filling out addresses and internet forms. people sending me mail from Spain for example will fill in the province as Devon, this is standard correct procedure. Α Guy into Books™ § (Message) -  19:23, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The only reason a county is "equivalent" to a state or province in filling out a mailing address is because the county is the only division that exists for that purpose in England, precisely because no equivalent to states or provinces is in place to supplant them. It does not constitute evidence that English counties are politically equivalent to states or provinces for the purposes of getting from NPOL #2 to NPOL #1 — Wikipedians from England are the ones who spearheaded the consensus that county councils are not a level of government that confers an automatic NPOL pass on every councillor. And no, the North American equivalent to a UK parish would be called a township, not a county — a county here is the same thing as a county there.Bearcat (talk) 19:52, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This isnt 'any councillor', this is a (former) member of the 10 member executive cabinet group [16], theres 113 councillors below him.
I'm going back to arguing WP:GNG and author/composer is sufficient. Α Guy into Books™ § (Message) -  21:13, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Being a member of the county council's executive/cabinet still isn't an automatic notability boost over any other county councillor, because it's still a local office that has to be weighed under NPOL #2 rather than NPOL #1 — so it still depends on sourcing that work well enough to get him past GNG for it, not on any automatic inclusion rights. If you want to switch to arguing notability under a creative criterion rather than a political one, that's fine — I have nothing to say about that, since I'm not well-equipped to properly assess creative notability in many cases for a British writer or musician whose audience hasn't crossed The Pond like Radiohead's or Zadie Smith's. My issue in this subthread had to do with the claim that a county council seat could be reified into a provincial or state legislature for the purposes of NPOL, because it can't.

Nobody's saying he can't comment. However, if his comment includes a misunderstanding of what our notability standards entail, or a misrepresentation of how the subject does or doesn't pass them, nobody is obligated to let that misapprehension go unresponded to either. Freedom of speech does not offer an exemption from being responded to by other people who are also exercising their own freedom of speech. Bearcat (talk) 16:26, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
But clearly not everyone shares your interpretation of NPOL, even on the policy board I can't see anyone to agree that sources related to political activity are discounted when considering notability, nor do I agree that a biography has to pass a subject specific criterion to be encyclopedic relevant when the general notability criteria clearly applies when they do not pass such subject specific guideline.
To quote your comment earlier "My standard is that the person either (a) has a strong claim to passing a subject-specific inclusion standard, or (b) can show that he got quite a lot more reliable source coverage (i.e. quite a bit more than just two, three or four pieces of it) than the woman a mile down the road from my parents got for finding the pig in her yard" - this is obviously your opinion, possibly based on your own interpretation of something written in the ~2250 pages of policy we seem to have. Now my standard is the GNG of - "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" which means at least two sources where the subject is mentioned with enough detail that the person be identified without recourse to research, and the sources not be written by the subject or relation thereof. - there are about 8-9 good sources, 15 if you include the ones about his late political activity. There are more sources offline but that is beside the point because I cannot be asked to manually trawl miles of microfiche.
There is absolutely no way I agree with your assessment of the notability guideline, nor have I noticed your interpretation being used in any context except Corpdepth, where it is admirable. I am not going to suggest you have confused them, so I am strongly disagreeing they work in the same way and calling you a deletionist. I am putting way to much effort into arguing this so I am well glad its about to be closed and I can get on with something else. Α Guy into Books™ § (Message) -  19:42, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Every single county councillor who has ever existed in every county on earth could always show two pieces of local media coverage — so if your "two sources" interpretation were all it took to get a county councillor over GNG, then every county councillor in existence would always pass GNG and our consensus that county councillors are not automatically notable enough for Wikipedia articles would be inherently disembowelled. So no, to get a county councillor past GNG does take a lot more than just two or three pieces of local coverage. I am not wrong about this, nor am I applying any variant personal standards that differ so much as one iota from established consensus in this domain of activity: at the county level of office, we require evidence that the person is more notable than the norm, by virtue of being able to show a lot more and wider coverage than county councillors can always simply be expected to have in their local media. Bearcat (talk) 19:47, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I was of course referring to the coverage by national media as well. I cannot understand the bias against this grouping "Every single county councillor who has ever existed in every county on earth" is ~56,000 people, as councils were only invented in the 19th century in England and around the 1960-1980's in much of the world. Their equivalents in China and Indian (where the exist) are not elected in the same way and do not get news coverage, seemingly a western preoccupation. NPOL does not put forward what you say, it infact specifically states quite the contrary; "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article".", and from the common outcomes policy, which also does not support your interpretation "Municipal politicians are not inherently notable just for being in politics, but neither are they inherently non-notable just because they are in local politics". Therefore I must still disagree with you, even though I am confident he passes by his other accomplishments, notably the bardic work, before his political career that he seemingly only started after retirement.

Yes ok:
  1. Subject is a bard of the Gorsedh Kernow, which in itself is enough to pass criterion 1 of WP:CREATIVE. His work as a menstrel in the Kernewek tradition has received significant critical attention and therefore meets criterion 4 of WP:CREATIVE.

  • Delete per Doc James, Bearcat, and Chrissymad. Fails NPOL. The great things about the subject notability guidelines is that they give us a lens through witch to view the GNG: if they have coverage that would be expected for their level in their chosen field, but do not meet the subject guideline, it is unlikely that they will meet our standards for the GNG, because the coverage will have been deemed run of the mill. That is the case here. An appeal to the GNG from an SNG is possible, but I don't see there being enough in this case. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:07, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@TonyBallioni: yes I thinks its established he fails NPOL, what about the rest?  --- Α Guy Into Books™ § (Message) - 
I'm not convinced by your above arguments in that regard. Considering the CREATIVE 1 claim is dubious: the overwhleming majority of people listed at Gorsedh_Kernow#Lists_of_Cornish_bards_and_venues are not articles. That suggests that the Wikipedia community hasn't generally recognized it as meeting that criterion. There is zero evidence he also meets CREATIVE 4: if you can provide peer reviewed work concerning him or provide in-depth reviews and commentary from highly reliable sources, I might be convinced to change my mind, but none of what has been presented gets near that standard from what I can see. TonyBallioni (talk) 20:14, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Highly reliable"? Well that puts him out of the picture. :) Druids, Bards and other esteemed old bearded people are not known for their highly reliable work. I doubt any sane mainstream reviewer would even bother, in fact the Indepedant had this to say. Its a matter of some national pride to only publish commentary on bardic work in Cornish. eg. Viajor Gans Geryow eus rydhses gans y brentin gonis... etc (from a commentary by Skogyn Pryv) In short you can take what you will from it.  --- Α Guy Into Books™ § (Message) -  20:50, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
CREATIVE 4 requires significant critical coverage of their work. That means analysis and reviews that engage with the text, not simply press coverage. In response to your comment above re: CREATIVE 1, the Wikipedia community does not seem to share your opinion that this title is generally sufficient for inclusion. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:34, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It would be more correct to say that Wikipedians haven't considered it before, I mean all the comments on bards above^ are pretty positive. There is no way obscure publications written in a dead language spoken only 1000 people could be considered press coverage, or really any form of popular culture, the whole cultural tradition only survives because the EU think it is nationally important to support this minority ethnic group and therefore gives it funding.  --- Α Guy Into Books™ § (Message) -  21:54, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Realistically the entire argument above is mostly irrelevant back and forth about policies that don't really apply, what matters is that crition 1 of WP:CREATIVE 1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors. This is definitely passed, as stated by myself and five others here, the fact no one can look beyond the politics is neither here nor there, you can discount every single reference and he would still be notable according to the subject specific guidelines. Its not really possible at the moment to write as much about this person as is perhaps going to be written eventually, mostly due to sources being on microfiche and in other languages, nevertheless there is a sufficient amount of verifiable information already included to make a start class article.  --- Α Guy Into Books™ § (Message) -  21:09, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to cut down the promotional tone in one paragraph but there may not be much content left if continued.

Article about an individual television episode, serving primarily as a plot summary and not demonstrating any significant real-world context for why it would require a standalone article separately from the existing List of Looking episodes. As always, every TV show that exists does not automatically get to spin off a separate article about each individual episode -- we use episode lists for this purpose, and only create dedicated articles about individual episodes in rarefied special cases, on the order of Ellen's "The Puppy Episode", that can show genuine context for why they need more than just a basic plot summary in an episode list. But what we've got here for real world context is "the episode was released to general acclaim", the end, and what we've got here for sourcing is not really coverage of the episode itself, but brief mentions of the episode in general overviews of the series, a non-notable YouTuber's recap video, and the cast and crew's own self-published audio commentary on the DVD boxset. These are not sources that properly establish that this episode needs a standalone article separately from the already-existing episode list. Bearcat (talk) 18:40, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per GNG. I disagree. There are many Wikipedia articles about specific episodes, and there are sources for this one, too:

I'd prefer to see this article developed, not deleted. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:48, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Plot recaps aren't enough to establish the standalone notability of an individual episode either — especially for a show that aired in the 2010s, when every single show that exists at all will be getting recapped on some pop culture website somewhere. Yes, there are "many" Wikipedia articles about specific episodes — namely, certain specific episodes that have notable real world context, qualifying them for special treatment different from the way we handle most television episodes. What's required for a television episode to qualify for its own dedicated article to be spun off from the episode is real-world context, along the lines of "The Puppy Episode" getting extensively covered as the single most important watershed moment in the entire history of LGBT representation on TV. (Wanna guess how many other episodes of Ellen besides "Puppy" actually have standalone articles separately from the episode list? Free hint: you'll be wrong if you guess any number greater than zero.) Bearcat (talk) 14:07, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, well even if a standalone article is not appropriate at this time, we should just redirect to List of Looking episodes and not delete this page. ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:51, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The series it was connected to lasted two seasons and under HBO terms, didn't do well. This is a low-quality "current-day Family Guy episode type-what-I-see"-level recap which is poor in every manner; the plot, the 'production' section (nobody cares if an actor is making his first appearance on cable), and reception ('general acclaim' is a dreadful description of critical reaction). Nate • (chatter) 02:33, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Alonso Duralde is a respected film critic, and has written for many publications. The Young Turks are definitely notable; What the Flick is aired through their channel. I would also like to point Mrschimpf towards our civility policy—labelling other contributors' work as "poor", "dreadful", etc. is not helpful. Gertanis (talk) 19:59, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I apologize if I offended you, but the writing for a plot summary must be well-sourced and read well, and this did not to me; there's parentheticals identifying actors, which distracts from the summary (you've got the cast list in the main article, so readers can easily reference that), along with too many blue links for obvious items such as condos, LA and bachelor parties. "Many scenes were re-shot for the episode, as they were considered too sad." is a line I should not be reading in a Wikipedia article; why is it considered 'too sad'? Can you use better wording? Just on that alone I can re-write it as 'The original cut of the episode was considered too depressing to audiences, and scenes were re-shot in order to lighten the mood'. Why is Mr. Alvarez being on cable for the first time so important? It's an HBO show; that should be good enough, and you don't really need to point that out (as it was most of the cast's first time on cable or HBO). And 'general acclaim' is too vague to describe critical reaction; that could vary as much as 'there are issues with the show that keep it from being great', 'it was an OK show' to 'this was fine'. As for your sourcing, Duralde is a film critic; we usually look for television critics because they work the field all the time, where film critics are grading on a curve because they have different expectations for a television series than a film. TYT (like it or not) is also known more as a political show, with their arts criticism as on the side. Generally, we also prefer to have a written review to source; readers looking for more generally don't want to have to sit through a video (or here also, audio commentary for the episode from those involved in the work, which is a disallowed WP:PRIMARYSOURCE). Nate • (chatter) 21:15, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is the first article I've created of this kind, so maybe you should be a bit more polite. Unnecessary blue links and parentheticals are easily removed, and constitute no solid reason for deletion. Mr. Duralde is indeed a film critic, but not exclusively. He writes/speaks of both mediums, which is becoming more and more common, as they both pertain to the moving image. Primary sources are not disallowed on WP; autobiographies are often used in articles, for straightforward statements. Also, Ellen is a talkshow, not a narrative feature. You mention Family Guy: that show has WP articles for almost every episode, even some GAs. So why no articles for Looking? Gertanis (talk) 06:44, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As noted above, what gets an individual television episode into Wikipedia is not the mere fact that it's possible to source a plot summary to episode recaps and critical reviews of the series — what's required is real-world context for why the episode has its own independent importance as a separate topic from the series as a whole. You haven't shown any of that, however — you've just sourced a plot summary.
Also, please read WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: the fact that some other unrelated show has separate articles for most or all of its episodes does not automatically mean every other show gets that too. It's possible that those other articles should be deleted too and it's just that nobody's tackled them yet, or it's possible that there are contextual reasons that you're missing as to why the two shows aren't actually equivalent in terms of episode notability or sourceability. (For example, the sheer depth of Star Trek fandom, the show's incalculable influence on pop culture and its gigantic body of literature all mean that it's possible to reliably source genuine real-world context, beyond just a plot summary, for virtually every episode of that series — yet it's not possible to do the same for the shortlived Canadian knockoff The Starlost, where the best we could ever actually do is just a plot summary.)
And incidentally, you need to familiarize yourself with the difference between Ellen, the 1990s sitcom that was actually raised as an example in this discussion, and The Ellen DeGeneres Show. They're two different shows; the 1990s one that had a historically important episode called "The Puppy Episode" was not a talk show, but a narrative sitcom.

  • Delete - I'm not able to find coverage about this episode aside than the aforementioned expected coverage by virtue of it being the pilot of an HBO series. I agree that in this day and age pretty much every show is going to be covered in some form by some pop culture podcast or web site, but that does not make the episode worthy of its own article. Had this show made more of an impact on the cultural zeitgeist, my vote would be different. I don't think a redirect is warranted either.

I think it's about focusing efforts where they would be more useful, and managing expectations. For the former, once it becomes standard policy to create redirects for every episode of every show, people will go out and do just that for their favorite shows. So rather than beef up plot summaries, for example, we'll just have more redirects. As far as managing expectations, some of these redirects may show up on disambiguation pages and even in articles as Wiki-links, yet clicking on them might cause disappointment when the occasional reader expects an episode's article as advertised, but lands on the series page instead. In this specific case, the lack of sources that prevent my support of a standalone article also suggests to me that there's not much that will trigger a search for this episode by title anyway, making all of this moot.

This was deleted once previously as WP:G12, and there are still some probably considerable close paraphrasing issues, but it's a bit hard to tell because it looks like the author has altered the particular wording so that verbatim searches don't tell much.

There are serious tone issues anyway, although it's arguably poorly written vaguely promotional English, rather than well written obviously promotional English. And I sympathize.

Web searches don't return very much of anything at all. Unless some of these claimed collections are permanent and important or some of this persons works is renouned and widely covered in a way that is at least non-obvious to me, I don't think there much to expect the subject passes WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO or WP:NARTIST.

  • Delete As I explained to the editor who created the article: I'm concerned about the notability of the subject and his exhibition record. I don't recognize any of the exhibition venues, except one, Allingawier (I'm from the Netherlands). Allingawier is a tiny village that has approximately 60-80 inhabitants (it depends on how you count) but it definitely has no castle. Naturally, this makes me wonder about the other venues; a "personal exhibition in /Berlin/Prague/Oslo"? Unless there are independent, reliable sources that allow us to verify these claims, I'm afraid we're going to have to dismiss them and conclude that the subject fails our notability criteria.

(Also by implication the associated album articles: Into the Glorious Battle, Chapter I (Cryonic Temple album), Blood, Guts & Glory, In Thy Power, Immortal (Cryonic Temple album))

They're apparently signed to a record label with... an article... but it's a reference-less list of acts, so it's doubtful that the label is itself notable. All of the album articles are themselves basically reference-less lists.

News searches for the bast returns a handful of results, most of which are either patently non-reliable or extremely niche metal sites. None of the members seems to be independently notable that I can tell. They... at least claim to have put out enough stuff that it arguably avoids A7, but just sticking around for a long time and putting out records doesn't notability make.

None of the non-English versions are any better, and that there is no Swedish article for a Swedish band, when there are articles in English, Spanish, Polish and Scots doesn't bode well. TimothyJosephWood 16:45, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hey FreewheelerCT. If you can provide reference to the types of magazine reviews and things that you mention, that would be helpful in trying to gauge the notability of the subject. Unfortunately, lots and lots of views on social media and streaming services is often a sign that an artist may have sources available about them and their work, they don't really count for much as far as being sources in-and-of-themselves.

I am an Attorney representing Gary Null in his attempt to have his Wikipedia page removed. Gary Null's Wikipedia page should be deleted because it breaches Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons, which requires verifiability, i.e. that the information comes from reliable sources. On Gary Null's page, Reference #3 for the statement "He is an ADIS denialist and anti-vaccinationist" results in a 404-error page and thus not be considered a reliable source. Further, Gary Null's page is decidedly negative, which goes against Wikipedia's requirement for a Neutral Point of View. Donickma (talk) 16:09, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep , Nom is correct regarding the "salon" link, but it just needs correcting. The decidedly negative tone is just a reflection of Null and his relationship to the mainstream scientific view. -Roxy the dog. bark 16:32, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Appears to meet notability criteria and AfD is not the right venue to propose corrections. The article does not appear to be an attack page considering the sources and tone. NPOV does not mean that the article should be promotional; it is about reflecting in due weight what reliable sources report. —PaleoNeonate – 01:46, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above. WP:SNOW. A quote from Jimbo Wales: "What we won't do is pretend that the work of lunatic charlatans is the equivalent of "true scientific discourse". It isn't.". Off-line sources (e.g. books) can be reliable, and dead links should not be removed (and fixing them is usually quite simple). (((The Quixotic Potato))) (talk) 02:44, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep because the proposer of this AfD has attempted to rewrite history on a technicality which has since been fixed, and has an obvious conflict of interest in making their client look good when countless reliable sources paint him in a different light.

  • Keep the article's subject is notable; an editor has addressed the dead link mentioned by the OP by replacing it with an copy curated in the Wayback Machine/Internet Archive. The source in question meets wikipedia criteria for a reliable source, thus the statement in question is verifiable. WP:NPOV does not require our articles to avoid discussing controversies surrounding living persons or to withhold opinions expressed by others regarding living persons or their acts or statements - just that they be presented neutrally. WP:VERIFY and WP:BLP require that we take care that statements made about living persons are verifiable and reliably sourced. The statements regarding the subject of this article all can be verified by the reader to be based on reliable sources. loupgarous (talk) 09:41, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Relatively detailed and well-sourced article on a minor fringe writer. Meets notability criteria. I found contradictions between the Lead and the body of the article, but I think I fixed them. Dimadick (talk) 19:23, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment In answer to OP's statement "Gary Null's page is decidedly negative, which goes against Wikipedia's requirement for a Neutral Point of View", WP:BLP says "All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be supported by an inline citation to a reliable, published source." We did that. Any negative inferences drawn about the subject are solely owing to the subject's own contentious statements and reactions to those statements reported in reliable sources for information. It's no more POV for us to include that information in an article than it is for us to report on other WP:FRINGE theories and their reception by outside commentators. loupgarous (talk) 21:44, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete suject is not notable enough that there is any reason to have an article on the subject against his wish.

It would be possible to trim this article down to the size of its Korean counterpart, were it not that that article is entirely unsourced. The only source with a link is an article by the subject.

TL;DR: delete per WP:NWEB, WP:NOPAGE and WP:GNG.

For the benefit of doubt, all the links that I provide to back up my argument are safe-for-work.

I am approaching this nomination with some caution because I may be tarred and feathered if not. Yes, this article is the most-viewed stub per the weekly ORES ratings. Yes, it’s ranked 50 on Alexa’s list of most popular websites. Does it meet our criteria for inclusion? I would say not.

This and this are the only coverage the website has received in independent, reliable sources. The first one fails single-event notability standards, because it’s just about a firefighter falling to his death whilst trying to remove pornographic images from the website from a hoarding and the second one is about someone wanting pornographic videos to include the Indian National Anthem which isn’t subject to in-depth, meaningful coverage. The petition by the proposer for this measure got 66 signatures so cannot be construed as notable in itself.

The only policy-based counter-argument against this nomination is per the web content notability guidelines. However, such an argument would be misplaced an incorrect because nowhere in these guidelines does it say that being the 50th most-visited website confers any notability at all. The other argument would be “but it’s popular, look at the ORES statistics”. Well, people may visit the article a lot but it is nothing than a mere directory entry which says it’s a website which provides pornography which the reader could probably guess from looking at their website. In other words, it’s not really an article.

  • I'm sure there's a guideline somewhere that indicates "most visited websites in the world" are presumed notable. Maybe the lack of coverage could be the result of it being a pornographic site. I haven't gone through yet but I'll see if I can work something out and decide my vote — Zawl 15:48, 28 August 2017 (UTC).[reply]
  • Keep: Well, this is definitely going to be one of the more interesting keep !votes that I've ever done. Per WP:PORN's sources section, XVideos is covered in a number of reliable sources that cover the industry (note that they're specifically reliable for adult industry news, NOT just general RS's-- I could see an oppose coming down saying that the sites themselves aren't reliable, but consensus so far has established them as such). I've listed a number of reliable sources below:
    • From AVN: [24], [25], [26]
    • From XBiz: [27], [28]
    • I don't think there's any other rationale for deleting this article that I can see, and I therefore !vote keep. Just a note here as well that AVN and XBiz are probably not SFW for anyone reviewing sources. Nomader (talk) 16:46, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • Just a note here on the links I gave-- almost all of them have to do with legal stuff. There's a few articles that I found as well that mention it as "world-famous" or "one of the largest" sites but it's always a side-mention. I specifically chose these sources to address the notes brought up by DrStrauss. Nomader (talk) 16:58, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • If anything numbers 4 and 5 could just be used as citations on cybersquatting. XVideos isn't the main topic of either of them per se, just an example. As for 1, 2 and 3, they do constitute coverage but the only coverage they give is to numerous lawsuits brought against the company, and their inclusion without significant other coverage would violate the undue weight principle. DrStrauss talk 17:02, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fair points. There's also coverage from these sources as well though ([29], [30]), the first one describing it as "currently the largest adult site" in 2012 and the other one expanding on another article from AVN. There's also the book Pink 2.0: Encoding Queer Cinema on the Internet which discusses Xvideos at length and was published by the Indiana University Press ([31]). I don't think it's going to win any awards for 'best article of the year', but I think that XVideos definitely meets WP:GNG. Nomader (talk) 17:59, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just adding to this list-- The Economist also did a write-up on the state of the porn industry and talked about an attempted acquisition of XVideos by Mindgeek ([32]). It's a somewhat passing mention but it should be usable to flesh out the article. Nomader (talk) 18:51, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Searches for XVideo at Google Scholar yields about 325 results & about 92,300 results at Google News. "Just How Big Are Porn Sites?". extremetech.com. stated in 2012 that "Xvideos, the largest porn site on the web with 4.4 billion page views per month, is three times the size of CNN or ESPN, and twice the size of Reddit."
Why are we even debating notability at this point when it is clear that this article needs to be expanded beyond stub status? Because I often edit from a work computer (those Google searches done on a break from my personal notebook, BTW), I stay away from any sources for this article. Many of the edits over the history, when not vandalizing it or reverting vandalism, seem to keep trimming it down, hence one reason why it is so paltry. It is clear to me that the problem here is not a dearth of sources or notability, but the lack of editing dedicated to this topic.
Peaceray (talk) 21:07, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • We're debating notability because I have written a lengthy and detailed rationale which challenges the article's encyclopedic notability. Neither WP:NWEB nor WP:GNG say simple page views or search engine hits confer notability. Your keep !vote appears to be on the grounds that there are lots of hits or page views and doesn't analyse them in-depth. Sorry if this sounds crotchety, it's not intended to be. DrStrauss talk 21:41, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have read your rational & disagree with its conclusion. There is more to XVideos in potential sources than just the Alexa ranking. Again I return to the quote that I posted: "Xvideos, the largest porn site on the web with 4.4 billion page views per month, is three times the size of CNN or ESPN, and twice the size of Reddit." I fail to see what is unnotable about being the world's largest porn site when it is considerably larger than either CNN, ESPN, or Reddit, & ranked in the top 50 websites.
Regarding your statement about the two sources appearing in independent media, well, the one about the firefighter falling to his death seems to be negative cherry picking. Having just provided an independent source not in your set of two, I am highly skeptical that one cannot find substantially more in the >300 results from Google Scholar & >92,000 results from Google News. Coverage may not be great for XVideos, but I am sure that someone with time & unfettered access can eventually find plenty. Peaceray (talk) 23:05, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pages about more specific concepts involving this word already exist. --Tryptofish (talk) 18:48, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Wiktionary This seems like a pretty clear cut case of "Wikipedia is not a dictionary". CJK09 (talk) 21:43, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge Concision and Succinctness as these cover the same topic. There is some overlap with Plain language, so it's also conceivable to treat these two topics in one place. – Uanfala 21:57, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep; I like the idea of merging in Succinctness. I would move this to Conciseness, which happens to be (internally) one of the criteria for article titles at Wikipedia:Article titles. The fact that a concept is abstract and difficult to write does not lift it from the category of things that can and should be included in an encyclopedia. The concept of conciseness, beyond the mere dictionary definition, is important in philosophy, law, and literature. It is one reason things like word limits for academic essays and court filings exist at all. bd2412 T 02:23, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I've been thinking about the ideas about merging. I'm not entirely convinced that doing so would be preferable to deletion, because, for example, when referring to physical size, we treat such words as huge, big, little, and tiny as DAB pages rather than regular pages, and there does not seem to me to be that much that can be said about concision and succinctness as standalone ideas within society, as opposed to as words. (One can address the application to law, for example, in Legal writing, and the application to pagenames in Wikipedia space.) But I'm open to persuasion, and I'm open to merging if that ends up being the consensus. So if there seems to be strong support for merging, I'm quite willing to withdraw this AfD early. However, there is not yet anything remotely like consensus about what would get merged into what, and I would prefer to see an emerging consensus about that before considering whether to end the AfD. --Tryptofish (talk) 23:21, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • My gut feeling is with bd2412's suggestion for using Conciseness as the article title for the merged Concision and Succinctness. I don't think the AfD should be closed early as it's a tricky topic and it could do with more input. – Uanfala 21:09, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Tryptofish:: big, huge, little, and tiny are adjectives, while concision (or conciseness, or succinctness) is a noun, a thing. A comparable concept, I think, is Size - which was a disambiguation page for a very long time, until I turned it into an article on the concept of size. That, of course, was after my proposal to do this was met with skepticism that an article could be written on a concept as abstract as size. bd2412 T 01:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and keep by moving succinctness into concision. The reason for keeping? Well, all the idioms, metaphors, word-blends, abbreviations and similes in the English language encouraging conciseness as well as its widespread discussion on various lexicological forums, as well as its opposite (verbiosity) suggests the topic is notable. 92.6.189.188 (talk) 15:51, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. The Succinctness page is grossly incomplete and incorporates database and programming language. Concision is strictly grammatical writing for documents. Verbose writing (documents) is not poor programming (cryptic). Merging these two is illogical; writing and programming are different animals. Keep concision (which it can be greatly improved to incorporate the KISS method, reference business/administrative writing compared to descriptive writing), and make a separate page for proper programming or database design. Thanks. --DigitalIQ (talk) 06:58, 26 August 2017 (UTC)— DigitalIQ (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
    • These issues go beyond my knowledge areas. My impression is that there are separate pages for the programming aspects, and that the proposed merge page should only be about the more general concept, but maybe I'm wrong. Do other editors believe that these are good reasons to change to a different course of action? --Tryptofish (talk) 17:48, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • I think the merge page should eliminate programming/database; i.e. not include it with document writing. Cryptic programming gets the job done, but it is highly inefficient. It can make the code run slow with extraneous commands. Cryptic programming is the closest equivalent of verbose document writing, so verbose should not be used to describe cryptic/overbloated code. The two are unique, and should not be merged. This is just my opinion. KISS (Keep it simple, stupid or silly) is more a saying than method. It is taught in business writing classes to eliminate verbose writing (i.e. waste). Descriptive (novel writing to describe characters, and so forth) vs. business/proposal (concise) writing. Cheers. --DigitalIQ (talk) 06:48, 27 August 2017 (UTC) Edit (8/28/17): Maybe Concision can be merged with the page on Academic Writing, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_writing --DigitalIQ (talk) 14:07, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. Time to put this discussion out of its misery. I am explicitly not closing this based on the argument of advocacy; while the article text was inappropriate in that direction such things can be fixed easily enough and are not reasons for deletion. Nor has it been deleted because the original author is a paid editor who is explicitly complying with the terms of use. However, there has also been a fair bit of ink used discussing the sources, but there seems to be a consensus formed that the references provided are either exceedingly local in nature, of dubious independence from the subject, or primary sources. While not universally accepted, this argument has not been rebutted and is the strongest view presented here.

I will restore this to anyone's user space upon request if they want to go ahead and try to salvage some content. Lankiveil (speak to me) 22:26, 22 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable non-profit organizations that reads like an ad: it is excluded by both points of WP:N, as it fails WP:NOT since the article solely exists to promote the subject, and it also fails the general notability guideline. The sourcing that exists in the article is almost all from the org or a related website. Google News search reveals only connected sources (PR or org personnel interviews) or local coverage that typically doesn't rise to the level we expect for companies. All of these concerns make deletion the most appropriate response under policy. TonyBallioni (talk) 15:06, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Hello, I would like to address the concerns about the Rainbow Housing page, so that it is not deleted.
    First, the article does not solely exist to promote the subject, but rather provide factually correct information that has been published in credible sources. As mentioned in the entry, Rainbow Housing is a non-profit entity, so there is is not a commercial motivation behind this organization. The article avoids puffery and it is not written to read like an advertisement since it is not intended to “promote or sell a product, service or idea.”
    Second, in terms of notability guidelines, the article does include citations to reliable news sources that establish there has been significant coverage of the organization from multiple publications. While the organization’s website is used as a source of information, the 12 other outlets cited in the article provide factual details. The news articles used in the citation include content written by independent reporters. I added more citations and sources the the article today, 8/14/17.
    When conducting a google news search for “Rainbow Housing Assistance Corporation,” the first page of results does not yield any PR press releases. The search results include an article published by one of the U.S.’s largest daily major newspapers (Houston Chronicle), an online real-estate trade magazine (Commercial Property Executive), and an established national magazine (Affordable Housing Finance). In terms of Wikipedia’s policy on notability, I did not see any criteria related to what can be found in a Google News search. I do not see the connection between deleting a Wikipedia page based on your Google search, but please direct me to the appropriate Wikipedia guideline, since I found no mention of Google News Search in WP:N and WP:NOT.
    However, I do know that the notability guidelines state that “notability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources, not their immediate presence or citation in an article. Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the possibility or existence of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article. Thus, before proposing or nominating an article for deletion, or offering an opinion based on notability in a deletion discussion, editors are strongly encouraged to attempt to find sources for the subject in question and consider the possibility of existent sources if none can be found by a search.”
    Perhaps notable news sources not already being used in citations can also be found outside of conducting only a Google News search. Since their is a concern for the sources currently being used, below is a brief overview of the outlets cited in the Wikipedia article. Upon reviewing these, it is clear that many of these citations come from trusted sources that are used for other published Wikipedia entries.
    • The Houston Chronicle “is the largest daily newspaper in Houston, Texas, United States. As of April 2016, it is the third-largest newspaper by Sunday circulation in the United States.” The Chronicle is also one of the largest newspapers in the state of Texas.
    • Affordable Housing Finance is a national magazine published by Hanley Wood, a real estate media firm that “is one of the ten largest business-to-business media companies in the United States, with the largest analytics and editorially driven Construction Industry Database of more than 2.5 billion records.”
    • Next City “is a national urban affairs magazine and non-profit organization based in Philadelphia.” (Next City Wikipedia page)
    • Arizona Business Magazine is the Arizona’s “leading monthly Business magazine. Published by AZ Big Media, the magazine covers a wide range of topics focusing on the Arizona business scene, and is aimed at high-level corporate executives and business owners.”
    • Bisnow Media is “a multi-platform digital media company that produces news and live events...covering 27 metropolitan markets across the U.S., Canada and the U.K. with a subscriber base of over 600,000, Bisnow is one of the largest producers of commercial real estate news and events.” (BisNow Wikipedia page)
    • Multi-Housing News is a real-estate magazine headquartered in New York that “became an online real estate magazine in July 2012.”
    • How Housing Matters is an online resource which conducts housing-related research projects. It was created by the Urban Institute, “a Washington D.C.-based think tank that carries out economic and social policy research.”
    • Shelterforce an independent, non-academic publication, that has been used as a citation in other Wikipedia pages, such as Gary Winkel and Susan Saegert.
    • In addition to large, established outlets, a number of smaller trade outlets are cited as well. They include the following. National Real-Estate Investor is a national magazine that had reported on real estate-related news for 50+ years. Commercial Property Executive is an online trade magazine with a focus on reporting about commercial real estate business across the U.S. Connect Media is an online commercial real estate news source.
Therefore, I do not think deletion is appropriate in this case. HannahVerg (talk) 22:27, 14 August 2017 (UTC)HannahVerg[reply]
  • That is quite a lot to process, but I'll try: first, the Houston Chronicle mention is fairly trivial: a smaller part of the larger article and a quote from a staffer. Even if it was more substantial, it was in the paper's local section, which is not as valuable as coverage in regional or national sections. The Next City Source is an op-ed by an employee of the NGO (see WP:SPIP). Trade publications and business journals are rarely considered to be reliable sources sufficient for notability on Wikipedia: they tend to reprint press releases and whatever they are told by the organization in question, and that seems to be the case for most of the things here. The language in the article clearly shows a promotional intent and tone as well, so in addition to the the lack of sourcing available that meets our standards, it would be excluded by WP:NOTPROMO. TonyBallioni (talk) 22:51, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note also, just noting for future readers HannahVerg has declared in compliance with the terms of use that she has been paid to edit this article. TonyBallioni (talk) 14:54, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Article content is neutral in tone and supported by credible news content from reliable trade and GCM media outlets with varied geographic reach. This article presents factual information regarding a valid non-profit organization. ctonih25 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Toniharrison25 (talk • contribs) 20:15, 15 August 2017 (UTC) Struck vote per Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Toniharrison25 TonyBallioni (talk) 13:00, 27 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note I would like to clarify that I was not paid by this organization to create the article. I merely disclosed my employer to provide transparency on how I became aware of Rainbow Housing, not to declare that I was paid to edit this article. I will edit my talk page accordingly to avoid future confusion. I also edited the page to reduce "promotional intent and tone."

  • Keep - I've cleaned it up a bit and fixed some references. I searched newspapers.com and their housing units are all over the country. It seems likely there are local news articles and TV news segments that exist out there - see WP:NPOSSIBLE. I also added an article from the Albuquerque Journal about its partnership with a San Francisco company to make housing units more ecofriendly etc. I think it needs to be less promotional and more encyclopedic in its tone, but it's not that bad compared with the truly horrific promo puff pieces on here. —МандичкаYO 😜 05:01, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • The local stuff wouldn't get it anywhere near the GNG even under NPOSSIBLE. Quite literally every local non-profit in the United Statss would be eligible if we held them to local only coverage. Re: spam. Yes, they aren't for profit but this is just as horrific a promo piece as many of the businesses I've seen on here. Combine that with the COI issues with both of the !votss above and deletion is the clear best option under policy here TonyBallioni (talk) 05:07, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • Local newspapers/television do not fail as reliable sources. That is only when the subject of the Wikipedia article has only coverage local sources, the point of which is to prevent people creating Wikipedia articles about their town's beloved 85-year-old librarian using the 10 articles about her in their town's newspaper. There are SIX NATIONAL NEWSPAPERS in the United States. That's it. The subject of this Wikipedia article is the organization itself, which is based in Phoenix. Therefore, the article in The Albuquerque Journal (the largest newspaper in New Mexico) about the organization working on a project in Albuquerque attests to the organization's notability. —МандичкаYO 😜 05:40, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • Yes: and we even hold the local sections of those six national papers to a much lower value than we do the rest of their coverage. It tends to be of significantly lower quality and cursory in coverage than stories of regional or national importance. The fact that the only sourcing that can be found here is local makes a very strong case that the subject does not meet our inclusion criteria. TonyBallioni (talk) 05:51, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
          • Hello, this is the creator of the page. Yes, the organization has received local coverage, but this is coverage that spans across the nation since Rainbow Housing has a national reach. The citations come from a variety of sources. There is also coverage from large national trade magazines, such as Affordable Housing Finance and Bisnow Media, so the sourcing is not only local. I have not been able to locate any Wikipedia policy that states trade magazines are not credible sources. Local coverage does not mean lower quality coverage. There are reporters who have received Pulitzer Prizes for local coverage, such as Lisa Falkenberg and Raquel Rutledge. HannahVerg (talk) 14:47, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: I know this has been here for a long time, but I'm in a quandry how to close it. So, I'm going to make my standard offer to the people arguing to keep. Could you list here the TWO OR THREE best sources, which discuss this from the point of view of WP:ORGDEPTH. Specifically, are there sources which talk about the organization itself, rather than mentioning it in the context of some project or event which the organization was involved with? Please limit it to just two or three; if you're willing to put in the effort to filter it down to a small number, I'm willing to put in the effort to read them. But, I'm not going to wade through a long list in the hopes something there clicks. There's no hard requirement that the sources need to be in national media, but the larger the audience scope, the stronger the source, so bear that in mind when selecting the best sources to review.

    • 2. Connect Media Commercial Real Estate: This article is a Q&A with the director of Rainbow. The content focuses on how Rainbow's housing model works. Connect Media is an online commercial real estate news source. This is reference #21 on the Rainbow Wikipedia page. Link to article: [2]
    • 3. Commercial Executive Magazine: This article's focus is that Rainbow Housing was selected as a service provider for a new Section 811 development in Arizona. Commercial Property Executive is an online trade magazine with a focus on reporting about commercial real estate business across the U.S. This is reference #21 on the Rainbow Wikipedia page.

Two things: just a note for the closing admin that this user has already !voted above. Second, of the three sources, only the first qualifies as anything near a reliable source.

  • Delete -- Fails the significant coverage requirement for WP:ORG. When asked above to provide the 3 best reliable sources, the article creator listed only one (The Albuquerque Joournal) which might meet the standard for significant coverage by an independent reliable source. The second ref is about affordable housing in general, not about this organization. The third ref is clearly a press release. Given that these are the "best" references presented after a month of searching, the page fails WP notability criteria at this time. — CactusWriter (talk) 15:27, 22 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge [was "redirect or merge" --doncram 02:04, 28 August 2017 (UTC)], probably to Mount Forest, Ontario. The present article includes, without source: "Built in 1873, the Mount Forest United Church is an important part of the local history of Mount Forest, Ontario, and continues to be one of the most historical, and recognizable landmarks of the area." It seems to me to be a decent attempt to assert and explain notability relating to the populated place. However, the church is apparently not listed on any historic registry and its specific historic importance is not adequately explained to justify a separate article now. We should prefer to find Alternatives to deletion and redirecting to the populated place article (which currently mentions the church in just one sentence) is a good one. --doncram 19:18, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I worked my way through the entire history of the article to find nothing the was properly sourced that could support the notability of the subject. There is no significant coverage in independent, reliable sources, so it faikls WP:GNG and none of the criteria of WP:CREATIVE are met. This is not an artist who has has won significant critical attention. A Google news search yielded: No results found for "Rich DiSilvio". Mduvekot (talk) 17:37, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep You all seem to be missing a critical point. He is not just an artist (who worked on projects for many music celebrities and even produced a collector plate & mug series for Lincoln Center). Nor is he just an author (who happened to win an international gold award and received acclaim from PhDs for his nonfiction work), since he also conceived of and developed the first interactive software for autism in 1999. In all my searches I have not come across anyone who developed such a product before him. Newsday, a reliable news source, mentioned this release in 1999, and a PhD from Rutgers gave a testimonial to the significance of this new software as well. That the PhD’s testimonial is posted on the software’s website I guess that becomes invalid too. But just because every bit of information of the past or present is not readily online via Google, or like this testimony, is not posted on a totally independent site, does not negate the reality or significance of this achievement, or his artwork on high profile music albums or book covers, or his award-winning literary achievement, which is notable, when competing against thousands of writers from several countries. So I’ll leave it at that. DVed (talk) 23:43, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I did a newspaper search for the last 10 years and added more references including some coverage in other Scottish papers (it also has coverage in various guidebooks), as well as referencing most of the facts tagged as needing references. I don't have access to older newspapers but it seems likely more coverage exists. Also, the building is Category A listed which is normally considered strong evidence of notability. A merge wouldn't be terrible (although it might unbalance the target), and the existing sources aren't all the strongest, but I think considering all these points, it meets guidelines for a keep. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:39, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Museums are inherently notable, or at least in practice we keep them, because they are public attractions and coverage about them in reputable travel guides exists and so does other coverage.

Keep While public museums may not be "inherently" notable, as claimed above, I would say they are generally notable except where reliable sources don't exist. This isn't the case here; the article is supported by multiple non-trivial sources. The Scotsman, Herald and Courier are all respected regional broadsheet newspapers. Also, as well as the museum, the building itself is likely to be considered notable on account of its listed status, and again there are sources to support this, such as Historic Scotland. While its notability could legitimately be called into question based on the state of the article when the nomination was made, I think it is now much more clearly established.

  • Delete as the sources hardly provide any coverage about her. She participated in a dance reality show called Dance India Dance, but there are many such reality shows in Indian tv these days. Simply participating doesn't make one notable. The claims in the article that she acted in "numerous films" is slightly misleading. Her roles are quite minor and in some cases related to simply dancing in one music video. I would also like to mention that the sources are all Times groups (Times of India, Indiatimes) related and is limited to very short gossip articles. Here are some important points about the sources as well as about the person in general.
    1. Ref 1 is not a reliable news source, but one of the many gossip websites online. These websites are often worse than tabloids and publish content without verification, often posting all sorts of rumours.
    2. Ref 2 is just one tabloid image and a one line description. Indiatimes is part of the TOI group.
    3. Ref 3 is a similar Indiatimes tabloid "news" (usually generated from anonymous sources). If you read the article, it is very short and that too only one sentence is devoted to her. A news article wouldn't end with "We wish luck to Khushboo for her Bollywood debut."
    4. Ref 4 Once again a similar Indiatimes tabloid news with one sentence mention of her. The role in the movie is restricted to dancing in the music video.
    5. It is surprising that there is no significant coverage about her in Hindustan Times and the Hindu, both major English dailies in India. A notable actor would usually have significant coverage in all three newspapers. Clearly, this is not the case here.
    6. I am also quite surprised that so many new accounts are voting on this afd right after the account has been created, such as "Shashi 1980" and "Bisarch". Neither do I understand the rational of "Barbara (WVS)" who says sufficient citations to establish notability, despite the citations being really low quality.
    7. She is upcoming actor who has had a few minor roles and I wish her all the best. But at this point of time she is not yet notable.--DreamLinker (talk) 01:35, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: At first glance of the provided sources I was certain they would be the usual name checks in cast listings, trivial promos, etc. However, once I actually opened the links, I see she has received third party, non-trivial write-ups in both the New York Times and the from organization that runs the Tonys/OBIE awards -- two of the best measures for a Broadway performers notability. Being singled out in The Hollywood Reporter reviews is borderline trivial, and The Intervalny as a source is a non-factor. A google search reveals additional run-of-the-mill type coverage and listings not cited in the article. So call it a weak keep if you want, but I think there is just enough that she passes.

Biography of an academic and politician, whose most substantive claim of notability is that his election to a smalltown city council in 1987 made him the first openly gay elected official in his state. We do not, however, automatically accept everybody as notable who can merely claim to have been the first member of an underrepresented minority group to hold an otherwise non-notable political office -- it would count for something if he could be shown to clear WP:GNG off the media coverage he received for the fact, but it's not an automatic inclusion freebie that exempts him from having to be reliably sourced. Of the three sources being cited here, however, one is an unpublished private e-mail from his sister and the other two are his contributor profiles in the back matter of an academic journal. And while there's a linkfarm of other "sources" present in the external links section, most of those are blogs rather than reliable sources -- the only one that even starts to build a case for GNG is an obituary in the local newspaper. But it's a deadlink, and obituaries of local figures would be routinely expected to exist in the local newspaper, so that source doesn't make him pass GNG all by itself. All of which means there just isn't enough valid sourcing here to make him notable. (Also there's a probable conflict of interest here, as the creator's username corresponds to the name of one of Herzenberg's council colleagues.) Bearcat (talk) 15:10, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Its editing history shows there have been a number of SPAs involved in editing it, and a sister article (Victoria International Ballet Academy) that was redirected to this one in March 2014. This appears to be a vanity article, or one set up to promote the ballet academy. Note that Category:Vaganova method teachers should also be deleted, as this article is the only entry in that category. Mindmatrix 14:57, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of alderpersons of Carrboro, North Carolina, comprehensive historical lists of town or city councillors in individual cities simply aren't a thing we do on here. A person wouldn't pass WP:NPOL for this role in and of itself, so it's mostly a list of non-notable people because normally the only way a person would actually have an article to link to is if they went on to hold office at the state or federal levels. And even places like New York City, where the city councillors are considered to pass NPOL because the city is so large and internationally prominent, still don't actually have lists like this. No prejudice against creation of an article about the city council itself, if one can be substanced and sourced, but a list of the past city councillors all the way back to the 1800s just isn't a thing we need.

  • Borderline case. The 5, regionally-elected county supervisors are the executive authority for Monterey County, which with a pop. ~ 450,000 is sort of like a city council in a mid-size city without a Mayor. Most Monterey country supervisors are not bluelinked. One area where he may be notable is in his land use regulation and park-creating efforts in Monterey County - one of the most treasured scenic regions in the U.S. (Big Sur). Claims that he took a leading role in creating parks for local use, County's first park, and the county Parks Department appear to be valid.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:14, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • The operative issue is the 250,000 population of Monterey County at the time, not its present population.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:49, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • Population understates the importance of Monterey County; it is important for its rugged coastline and campgrounds/beaches/parks and more, is known by many millions who have driven California Route 1(?) in order to see the scenery. Carmel is a rich, expensive place which must spill out; the development pressures must be huge. What goes on in Monterey is more newsworthy than elsewhere. A pioneering preservationist and county supervisor there is simply a lot more important than they would be somewhere else. --doncram 21:36, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. County supervisor is not a level of office that constitutes an automatic WP:NPOL pass in and of itself — it's a level of office where an article might be acceptable if it could be sourced well enough to get him past WP:GNG, but it's not a role that entitles him to an article just because he existed. Of the 39 sources cited here, however, close to half are primary sources (reports and meeting minutes from the county's own internal records, raw tables of election results, etc.) that cannot assist notability — and of the ones that represent reliable source coverage in media, even a large proportion of those are glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage that isn't about him, or even entirely tangential to him (frex, reference #30 links to an article which verifies stuff about the Humble Oil refinery fight but completely fails to even mention Warren Church's name in conjunction with it.) All of which leaves us with very few sources that are both reliable and substantively about Warren Church — and every last one of those few sources represents the purely routine level of purely local coverage that would simply be expected to exist for any county councillor. So the sourcing shown here does not constitute evidence that he belongs in an international encyclopedia. Bearcat (talk) 15:34, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete a non-notable county level politician.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:47, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Warren Church received significant independent coverage in multiple, reliable secondary sources. I have reviewed the notability guide and can find no mention that he needs “non-local coverage” I could not find any mention of a requirement that the sources be geographically distant from one another. I have been asking around to other editors, and no one has heard of that requirement. Only the guidelines on WP:GNG.
  • Articles do not need to be about the subject, “Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.” WP:SIGCOV. As Warren Church received his notability pre-Internet, all the sources are newspaper articles. I have reviewed many and they pass the “more than a trivial mention” requirement. Bearcat, you say that half of the 39 sources are to reports and meeting minutes, which is what I had to use to prove elements of the article, mainly the Committees area. They were not used to prove notability which is what is being challenged in this AfD. Citation #30 is the only online article that exists on Humble Oil. I used it as an element of the Humble Oil section, it was not used to prove notability.
  • Notability is not temporary WP: NTEMP. His contributions were decades ago, prior to the Internet’s existence. The sources I have used prove that during the years he was active he was notable.
  • Warren Church is an important part of local land use history in Monterey County. Multiple notable sources have acknowledged him as the father of the Monterey County parks system. These sources state this in different publications, and over many years. Warren Church has coverage for a significant period of time, starting at the beginning of his political career, through his 12 years as a supervisor; “sustained coverage is an indicator of notability.” WP:SUSTAINED.1stCoastal (talk) 06:19, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
For starters, you say that you had to use reports and meeting minutes to prove elements of the article — but if you had to source things that way because there was no media coverage for them, then by definition those things aren't notable enough to be addressed in the article at all. If the media didn't care enough to report those things, then neither do we.
Secondly, "an important part of local land use history in Monterey County" is not a notability criterion. To get a person into Wikipedia on a claim like that, the coverage of the claim would have to nationalize into sources on the order of The New York Times or The Washington Post, and purely local coverage in Monterey County's own local media wouldn't cut it. Yes, we most certainly do require the coverage to go beyond the purely local in many cases — for instance, we don't keep smalltown municipal councillors just because local sourcing exists; we don't keep county supervisors just because local sourcing exists; we don't keep standalone non-chain restaurants or retail stores or other small businesses just because local sourcing exists; and on and so forth.
The simple reality is that every town or city or county that has a public parks system will always have its own local person who can be described and locally sourced as the "father" or "mother" of the system (as well as its own "father" or "mother" of the library system, and on and so forth) — so what's needed is not just local verification that he did the same things as every other "parent" of a local parks system, but evidence that he's somehow a special case over and above most of the others. What's needed isn't a reason why readers in Monterey County might be interested, but evidence that readers on the other side of the world need to care more about the father of Monterey County's park system than they do about the founder of their own local park system who doesn't have an article. Bearcat (talk) 18:43, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Warren Church is not notable for being the occupant of an office that "came with a typewriter and $300 a month for incidentals" but rather for someone who, if chosen as the topic for a mid-semester "someone who could serve as a role model for public service" report by a 7th grader, Wikipedia could be a proper and valuable source. Also, Warren Church's "'12 years is as long as anyone should consecutively hold any one elective or appointive position... New ideas are necessary..." is quoteworthy, especially because "he did not miss a single board meeting... 558 consecutive regular board meetings and 100 or more special meetings." Trink24 (talk) 16:18, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I withdraw my "keep." From his Obituary, he's not such a role model for a 7th grader:

  • Keep. The Monterey Herald obituary which someone added to the article is substantial. It is fairly natural and common that articles get created about notable persons when they are dying or have just died, when the absence of an article is pretty salient. Some editing down of the article to report on his life in a more summary fashion would be appropriate. --doncram 21:27, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
An obituary in the local newspaper is routine, not notability-establishing, coverage, because it would simply be expected to exist. Get back to us when he's obituaried in The New York Times, not just the Monterey Herald. Bearcat (talk) 21:33, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well, most deceased persons don't get any obituary written by a newspaper as a news obituary (as opposed to family-written paid obituaries, or no obituary at all), which this appears to be. I am not saying everyone getting such an obituary is Wikipedia-notable, but IMO this one's content is substantial. You have made it clear you think otherwise, we can just agree to disagree. --doncram 23:21, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, not every deceased person has their death automatically treated as news. But every deceased person who held a role that made them locally prominent — every mayor, every city councillor, every county councillor, every school board trustee, etc. — most certainly does get obituaried in the local newspaper.

G'day mate,
You are doing good work on the article in terms of getting it to conform to Wikipedia's Manual of Style. However unfortunately I do believe the deletion nomination I placed will succeed due to the fact it is just one run of the mill park of many across Perth. Wikipedia being an online encyclopedia can only include articles that are particularly note-worthy. Just because something exists does not automatically qualify it as such. The criteria for notability is laid out in WP:NGEO. If it is deleted, I hope you still have the desire to continue to contribute to Wikipedia. — IVORK Discuss 06:39, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure 30 people camping there in the 1930-60s alone gives it relevance. This is the only mention of the park in the article. DPAW doesn't even list it on the "park finder" on their website, I'd say it'd be pretty hard to find an example of a park with a waterfront that isn't also "a wildlife sanctuary". There is however an article on the Swan River (Western Australia). — IVORK Discuss 07:46, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As much as I do not like to see the first article by a WP:NEWBIE get deleted, especially given that there seems to be so much good faith here, and having had such trouble myself when I first started, there just does not seem to be enough here for anything remotely core or in-depth or specific to the park.

I'm inclined not to encroach into foreign language Wikipedias. From what I can tell with the assistance of a translator extension, that article was created by an automated bot. Being that was the case, and no such thing for article creation exists on the English Wikipedia, what I know of their guidelines clearly isn't enough for me to propose deletion. Most foreign language Wikipedias act independently of one another, as even the guidelines after all are all just one big agreed-upon consensus between editors. I am not familiar with the history of that article or the bot that seemingly created it. — IVORK Discuss 14:04, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Note there are sources about community involvement in the park, from relatively local news sources and blogs, but I think these add up and suffice. For example:
  • blog review/description of the park
  • I added that "Nearby residents concerned about the park incorporated the Bardon Park Riverside Restoration Group to address weeds in 2016. The park has been managed by the City of Bayswater since 2006." based on |title=Residents to tackle Bardon Park weeds themselves, of 11 October 2016
  • I added that: "A nature playground was developed for $175,000 and opened in March 2016. The playground features a rock garden which illustrates 'the six Noongar seasons of Birak - the first summer, Bunuru - the second summer, Djeran - autumn, Makuru - the first rains, Djilba - the second rains and Kambarang - flowering.'", based on the City of Bayswater's facebook posting about it: [35].
I think this stuff adds up. What is needed is some helpful development, not eradication of good faith new contributor's work. --doncram 17:26, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The song continues to be played on several stations across the country, based on Mediabase charts [39], pertaining to point #11 of WP:MUSICBIO. The song was also featured on the score to the 2015 film Brotherly Love (citation: film credits) [40]. –DA1 (talk) 22:01, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Rpclod: What about the other references? The track "Real Ones" came out in 2015, and is still listed in playlists for a number of radio stations. Its rotation 2 years earlier was much more significant. Nontheless, Hot 97 is a notable source. XXL [41] and HotNewHipHop [42] have covered him as well. I don't see how that does not satisfy point #1. None of these are self-published, and notable sources (with their own Wikipedia articles to boot). –DA1 (talk) 13:08, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Neither Hot 97 nor HotNewHipHop qualify as reliable sources. XXL is very irregularly published and its editorial oversight is questionable. Even if it is deemed reliable, notability would depend on the articles' content. Insert links to the XXL articles as references in the Wikipedia article if you think the XXL articles support notability.--Rpclod (talk) 19:48, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Rpclod: Why are we conflating Reliablity with WP:Notability? The former pertains to claims being made. The latter is about whether something is notable for an article. If Quilly was on Hot 97, and we can see his video/audio on it, how is its reliability in dispute? Same for the other outlets; no unverifiable claims are being made. Only the question of whether subject is notable. The sources in question are simply coverage of his music. –DA1 (talk) 23:05, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The source must be reliable before it provides any indication of notability. Here the sources referenced are not reliable and hence no notability is supported.--Rpclod (talk) 03:06, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Rpclod: So which Hip hop outlets are considered reliable? There are a lot of articles on Wikipedia citing these alleged unreliable outlets. Including their reviews. And I really don't understand on which basis you're saying Hot 97 cannot be used as a source — to cite an appearance on Hot 97. DA1 (talk) 07:39, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
See Identifying reliable sources.--Rpclod (talk) 13:44, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Rpclod: According to WP:MUSIC/SOURCES, AllHipHop and XXL are listed as recommended sources. –DA1 (talk) 16:11, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. Note that biographies of living persons are held to a higher standard than most other articles. Assuming that these qualify as "high quality" sources, verifiable cites to significant coverage in those sources is still required.--Rpclod (talk) 20:18, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment:Article fits notability criteria under creative professionals item 3 "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." Article references multiple reliable sources including Sydney Morning Herald and Australian Broadcasting Corporation. DarkyT (talk) 07:39, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@DarkyT: Meeting a subject-specific guideline criteria does not necessarily mean the article must be kept. "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included." The SMH and ABC sources are not significant, they're about an event with trivial mentions of Jake Lloyd-Jones. - TheMagnificentist 11:27, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Very weak keep Does not strictly meet sufficient WP:NEXIST for GNG. However, does have some somewhat important contributions to social comment and societal education, and is I believe sufficiently interesting to a wide range of people to have an encyclopedic entry. This is one case where GNG perhaps should be relaxed a little. The Awards section should be trimmed/removed to the awards directly relevant to the subject. Aoziwe (talk) 13:03, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Not sure I properly understand what the issue is with this article User:TheMagnificentist? The guy is notable enough that we learned about his work at university so what's the basis for saying he's not notable enough? Subject of the article has created or co-created quite a few documentaries and other TV programs including some very notable ones like The Chaser which is very famous here in Australia. The references you say are just trivial mentions prove that the information in the article is true so I don't really understand the problem? The Notability guidelines say "People can be notable if they meet any of the following guidelines. Failure to meet these standards is not proof that a subject should not be included." However this does meet the guidelines anyway. Item 3 says in full "The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work. This work has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length movie" Well reference 4 proves a feature length documentary was made about his work. Hope that will be enough for you.

This individual does not meet notability requirements as outlined in Wikipedia:Notability (people). The one reference, Beijing Review, is routine coverage - there is insufficient significant coverage to establish notability. This page is essentially unchanged from the draft Draft:Luke Shen-Tien Chi, which was turned down several times at Articles for Creation. Creation of the article after the draft was declined is a subversion of the AFC process.

  • Keep - This individual has be the subject of multiple instances of substantial, independently published coverage in sources of presumed reliability and therefore passes the General Notability Guideline. See the footnotes for those, no need to search for more on the web. Allegations of BLP-1E are misplaced; this exception to GNG is for something exceptional not actually dealing with an achievement or meaningful activity of the subject — such as, for example, winning the lottery or appearing on a live television show and farting loudly. Such single incidents generate masses of news coverage which are to be disregarded; as opposed to someone who is known for one thing, such as being an expert on the reproduction of mako sharks or being the inventor of the traffic light or — yes — being the creator of historically rewritten song videos. This is something completely different. Note the word EVENT in "BLP-1E." Carrite (talk) 15:03, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as per nom. No individual notability established. May redirect to EWF article as alternative to deletion. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 19:04, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage to show he passes WP:GNG in his own right. Definitely notable as a member of the group, so a redirect to their page would be okay. Onel5969 TT me 17:02, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - This page meets WP:NMG, WP:NMUSIC, WP:NM specifically:Section 1.of (under Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself) and passes WP:GNG 

With a review of internet searches and independent music sources, the data clearly indicates that Fred White was a sought after studio and touring musician prior to joining EWF; from Chicago to MoWest (Motown), but you have to do the due diligence to properly document this. 

Interestingly enough, Fred White is the only member of the 'Classic 9' line-up that deletion and or redirection is trying to be established.  That's a tad bit bizarre. 

We can all see that no one has updated this page in several years but thankfully, it is currently being updated on Wiki as well as the Allmusic.com and Artist Direct websites to properly reflect the true and complete documented musical history of this artist.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Auntielandra (talk • contribs) 00:16, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I don't see multiple sources covering him in detail. He may be mentioned all over the place but that's not enough. Also it's misleading to say he received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016, that award was given to Earth, Wind & Fire. The other claim to fame, that he received "a gold record as a 16 year old for his work with Donny Hathaway on his Live album" doesn't appear to be mentioned in the source given.--Pontificalibus (talk) 10:16, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This entire article is a synth. None of the references seem to contain any information regarding the sexual transmission of these infections being transmitted to humans to animals or animals to humans by any type of sexual contact. Perhaps a merge with Zoonosis may be appropriate. Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 22:41, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No I just think you won't get a lot of comments here is all. Not sure what the procedure is if few comments come in. Ratel (talk) 07:26, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Here is what I will do if consensus doesn't happen here. I will be bold, and in good faith I will try to work on the article to improve it to the point where it stands on its own with good referencing. I will go over every reference that appears in the article. If sex with animals is not covered in the source I will delete the reference and its contents. So far, I have not found any reference that describes sex with animals in this article. There are less than 30 watchers of this page which may explain the lack of participation here. Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 12:30, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Um, the article contains several references to studies that describe the practice, such as PMID 12091035, PMID 1083973, PMID 4737141, (the lack of abstracts simply means you have to do a bit of footwork to get the text), so I'm not sure why you claim that you have not found any appropriate reference in the article. In addition, a good editor woould try to work in the following refs: PMID 22023719, PMID 19733331, PMID 28763709. More details can be found on page 267 of Forensic and Medico-legal Aspects of Sexual Crimes and Unusual Sexual Practices [51] where you'll find a much of the article's content confirmed, namely that numerous zoonoses are transmitted by zoophilia practices. If you do not feel up to this task, perhaps leave it to other editors who want to build the encyclopedia. Ratel (talk) 21:01, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The references you have found are not about diseases. These few, and dated publications do not meet the referencing guidelines for Project Medicine WP:MEDRS which requires high-quality medical references for infections and injuries. For example, see Feline zoonosis which I wrote. The article is about infections you can get from cats. Well-cited and up-to-date. The references you suggest as appropriate are about injuries. One of the articles uses the term bestiality. Another article states you can't get penis cancer from having sex with an animal. Guess I'm not a good editor...admittedly I am slightly familiar with abstracts. All those references listed above could be used in Zoophilia. But I can't find any information about how sexual activity between a person and an animal results in infections being transmitted between them. Best Regards, Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 22:39, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Um, the title is Zoophilia and Health. Health encompasses injuries. If you're going to require MEDRS review studies, there is no data, which is not surprising. Ratel (talk) 04:03, 27 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Following your logic, should we have an article entitled Metal sticks and health based on this? We could have pretty much anything and health, there are always articles to be found about anything that affects health. --Pontificalibus (talk) 07:35, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete When you strip out the list of diseases that could be contracted, without significant coverage in reliable sources demonstrating how each one is notably a problem in zoophilic situations, you're left with a very short article that belongs as a section in Zoophilia.--Pontificalibus (talk) 07:35, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
A compromise solution would be to use a quote from the section on zoophilia-zoonoses from page 267 of Forensic and Medico-legal Aspects of Sexual Crimes and Unusual Sexual Practices [52] listing the zoonoses transmitted by zoophilia, and insert that into Zoophilia. IOW, much of the data from this article could be usefully shortened and transferred into Zoophilia. As I remember, it was only moved to a separate article to combat vandalism, namely because when it was in Zoophilia is was repeatedly removed by IP editors who believed that zoophilia simply cannot result in disease.

  • Delete No indication of notability and no significant independent coverage. The sources are someone's blog, some fight results, and a bunch of articles saying their future events will be at the Alaska Airlines Center. In other words, nothing that shows this promotion is notable. In addition, the article is simply a list of blank fight cards for upcoming events. This promotion wasn't notable before and I don't see where that has changed. Papaursa (talk) 02:12, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep We encourage content building that fundamentally confuses the difference between an encyclopedia and a news site and gives undue weight to whatever low-hanging fruit Google dumps in one's lap. Resultantly, we see a pair of articles created solely to parrot a press conference, all the while ignoring the actual reliable sources out there. Such a stance has been furthered by others throughout this process. For instance, multiple reliable sources show that Sarah Johnston Lormier has been the owner or managing partner of the promotion since 2007. In this article, however, we have an infobox entry which refers to a Twitter handle sourced to a blog (and she isn't the founder, either). This AFD's nominator then proceeds to "fill in blank references" instead of bothering to scrutinize their reliability. Then I see a participant in the other AFD make a big deal out of BLP concerns because some fighters scheduled for the card were named (and predictably enough, that article was deleted anyway). Aside from the hilarity and potential irony of one of those fighters having the surname "Minus", that "problem" is downright innocuous compared to what I describe above. What a train wreck. This sort of going through the motions is precisely why I've cut way back on patrolling new pages.

A news archive search mostly of the Anchorage Daily News (search index accessible from adnsearch.com) shows that the promotion's coverage is heavy on its UFC affiliation in general, including emphasis given to the appearance of Chuck Liddell and Dana White at past events, as well as the promotion serving as a career springboard for Andy Enz, Nic Herron-Webb and Lauren Murphy (BTW, the timing of the last attempt at an AFC article coincides with a point in Enz's career ascent and associated coverage, but some of us are at a disadvantage to judge that if we can't view the content). Coverage related to the press conference states that the UFC deal figures into the decision to move to the Alaska Airlines Center. The focal point of that coverage was not that particular point or even AFC, but rather how the Sullivan Arena continues to lose business to their upstart competitor, to the extent of failing to point out that the Sullivan can be rented out as a half house, whether AFC has done so and whether therefore the move represents a step up or step down in terms of how many tickets they can sell.

Considering all that, the ADN has run a small handful of 1,500 to 2,000-word stories substantially about the promotion dating back to its first six months of existence in 2004, which combined give a halfway credible telling. Stories state that AFC has been among the Sullivan's top three tenants for most of its existence, along with the Aces and Seawolves hockey teams (the former of which also pulled out this year), that they've enjoyed attendance figures comparable to those events (with the caveat that the best-attended events were perhaps the 2006 co-promotions with concerts such as Drowning Pool and Naughty by Nature, plus the event where Liddell appeared) and that the popularity of AFC and MMA in general in Alaska has been influential enough to spur minor public outrage on occasion and to call for reinstating Alaska's defunct athletic commission. I'd suspect that coverage from other outlets does exist, even if they're hard to find. The all-inclusive search function found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Mixed martial arts/sources doesn't work as intended. Still, the "development" of the article thus far reflects the results of the same Google search I made, leaving me skeptical that any of those MMA sources were consulted.

Try this and this. Contrary to what others in this discussion have attempted to claim, the non-routine hits found at those links alone plainly satisfy WP:RS and WP:V. I still don't have the time to go through everything, but what I've read appears to also satisfy WP:SIGCOV, though not to a great extent. The aforementioned sources page at WP:MMA speaks of the importance of non-MMA-specific sources so as not to create the impression of a walled garden. Unless, however, I'm supposed to believe that such a statement applies only to that page and not to this page or the article under discussion. This is a perfectly reasonable conclusion to reach after reading some of the arguments here, the latest being to categorically excuse away local media coverage as "routine", all the while continuing to demonstrate that zero effort has been made by anyone but myself to actually examine those sources. Last I checked, WP:V has nothing to do with how much low-hanging fruit a Google search returns, which appears to be the "notability standard" being applied here by everyone else.

  • delete I didn't find anything that shows the UFC and AFC are actually affiliated, except for both being MMA promotions. Local coverage of sporting events doesn't seem like enough to show notability and doesn't WP:GNG say there should be multiple sources and that "multiple publications by the same person or organization are considered to be a single source"? User RadioKAOS seems to say that the AFC is notable because some people have attended their events or once competed for them, but that doesn't mean the AFC is notable.Sandals1 (talk) 13:15, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect to Mixed martial arts#Promotions - no evidence of sufficient standalone notability but the sparse coverage suggests it would fit right in as a sentence or two in the promotions section of the MMA article. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 18:50, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Just a comment on the merge suggestion; the target article says, there are hundreds of MMA promotions around the world. If there really are hundreds of them, and this one isn't notable, would adding it there be a case of WP:UNDUE? -- RoySmith (talk) 21:45, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That's a valid concern, but I found a way to get around that with guidelines I set for another article I created - Meal kit. There are reportedly 150 meal kit companies, so the list there could likewise get unwieldy, but I put in some editing notes to ask that contributors not add any company to the list unless there is a) a Wikipedia article on that company or b) significant indepth media coverage in at least one reliable notable third party publication. Companies that already have their own articles are wiki-linked, and companies with coverage but not an article (yet) are just sourced with that coverage. This acts as a stepping stone and creates three tiers of companies, only two of which appear on the list. So correspondingly non-notable MMA organizations would not be added. Once the list gets too long, it could be spun off as a standalone list. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 22:19, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- a directory-like entry on an entity with not indications of notability or significance. The article consists of trivia such as:
  • In July it was announced via social media that the AFC had signed a deal with the University of Alaska Anchorage campus arena Alaska Airlines Center for the 2017-2018 fight season!
The merge / redirect would not be appropriate in this case, so delete. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:28, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep User RadioKaos has demonstrated that the promotion is noteworthy due to the fact that it's been written about in media and that it's attendance is notable enough to put it level with other acts from different media. I don't think this warrants a deletion, if people are upset about the page, then a compromise could be to create a list of North American MMA promotions.Egaoblai (talk) 08:16, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Routine sports coverage in the local paper is insufficient to show notability. Crowd size does not prove notability, or every major college football game would have an article. No one has shown any significant coverage in any sources, much less the multiple ones required by WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 15:45, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's a little too blatant that just about everyone else here has come to this discussion with their mind already made up. Among the non-routine hits found in the links I provide above, there are multiple stories which refer to their attendance levels as being significant among local events in general. There is another story, by the Associated Press and not a "local yokel newspaper", which devotes several paragraphs to AFC's role in the athletic commission issue. This is coverage by reliable sources which demonstrates their impact on the real world, a place which some of you ought to try experiencing sometime. If you're expecting me to take a severely filtered view of few particular sources at face value, well, I can get that kind of POV from their websites without having to see it mindlessly repeated here. As has already been demonstrated with prior AFDs of this sort, you're expecting me to believe that if a promotion existed which consistently drew 50 people to the Muldoon Boys & Girls Club gymnasium yet were quite skilled at manipulating the media, that I'm supposed to pretend that they're "notable" if someone comes along and pulls the "right" sources out of their ass.

  • Delete The article seems to say nothing of note. This is the website she did an interview with, this is the primary school she went to, this is the magic show she appeared in... In order for her to meet notability guidelines she has to have some renown and independent coverage of whatever impact she has had in her given field. How widely is her work reported and reviewed, discussed, critiqued or lauded? This tells us nothing at all. Pupsbunch (talk) 19:14, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

First AfD closed as no consensus in 2010. Frankly I think the original nom was correct - this fails WP:NORG and WP:GNG. There is coverage, but it is strictly routine local coverage from Christchurch.

I follow the arts scene (mostly music, though, but occasionally theatre) and Top Dog Theatre doesn't ring a bell. I am aware of the Summer Shakespeare plays, but not that it's a production by this group. So if, as an interested local, I'm not aware of them, then a case for WP:GNG is hard to make.

  • Delete While vastness isn't in itself grounds for deletion, there's little evidence that the topic is notable, i.e. that there are multiple sources discussing the list subject as a coherent group. There is an AV club article "bands with more than one prominent lead singer"[54] and a Rolling Stone feature "Pass the Mic: 15 Big Hits Not Sung by the Lead Singer"[55]- but is that the same thing? How to distinguish between a band where a non-singer sings one song in a 20 year career and a band which shares vocal duties nearly equally on each track or between tracks? You could have an almost infinite series of similar articles (list of bands with 2 guitarists/drummers/bassists/etc). --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:33, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I'm no psychologist, but based on at least the abstracts of the papers linked (only one of which even uses the word "neurotypical", unless I missed something, and none of which use this term, arguing against the claim that "someone else [invented it]"), I'm thinking this is a hoax. It does also sound a little bit along the lines of the rather silly political trope of "[insert name of the side of politics you don't subscribe to] don't understand common sense, so they must be psychologically affected". Criteria 4, 6 and 8 in the article point in this direction, although that may just be me having read too much political science today. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 05:43, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is a bit like someone creating an article Hearing disorder that states the condition is characterised by a lack of deafness and an inability to understand sign language.--Pontificalibus (talk) 07:01, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
My computer's up to no good, so I can't read/search everything you've cited. That said, Yuill's article, while it does use the term, it's used in what seems to be the context of a thought-experiment where someone on the autism spectrum is describing how a neurotypical person would be described if autism-spectrum conditions were the "standard" by which others were measured. The last source says precisely what you've stated, but the rest of the context there reads "The above statement is taken from a website developed by people on the autism spectrum. It attempts to provide a humorous account of the belief that autism is a disease by seeking to establish the argument as irrational." The "skeletal paragraph" in the artcle you're suggesting as a redirect target is simply a rehash of the symptoms of the "disorder" as quoted in this article. If it's not a hoax, it's certainly something being taken significantly more seriously than it is intended to be. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 11:29, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I've found a publisher purporting to sell books on drunken boxing: https://www.plumpub.com/sales/kungfu/collbk_drunkboxing.htm According to them, it is not a distinct style; but many styles use forms which imitate a drunkard's movements as a training stage. Like the drunken monkey form of monkey style boxing, no actual drunkenness is involved; instead, the boxer consciously and soberly imitates a drunkard's movements. Is this a part of the hoax as well? Or are these books for real? I'd like someone with knowledge of kung fu styles to evaluate them before we consider deleting the article. Texas Dervish (talk) 22:48, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately this problem plagues most kungfu-related articles. However, AfD is about notability of the topic, not quality of the article. Zui quan, minus the myth, is still a popular style of Chinese martial arts, and there are a significant number of Chinese books about it from serious publishers, such as Chinese Zui Quan, Zui Quan, and Overview of Chinese Martial Arts: Volume 9. Unfortunately, none of them are available online. -Zanhe (talk) 20:52, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete There's no supporting evidence that this is an actual kung-fu style. It is something people seem to know about because of the movies, but the sources given are youtube videos along with non-independent and non-RS sources.Sandals1 (talk) 23:26, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The links to Googlebooks in your edit don't show me significant independent coverage nor do the sources in the article.Sandals1 (talk) 13:12, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The problem seems to be that there's a lack of reliable, independent sources supporting the claim this is an ancient martial arts style. Many of the article's sources are youtube videos or published by those who claim to know and teach drunken styles. As I said at the discussion at WT:WPMA#Potential Hoax article?, I know wushu instructors who teach a drunken form to some of their better students, but I've not heard any of them claim that drunken forms make up a style, much less an ancient one. Even the book review article from Kung Fu magazine says things like "according to legend", which is hardly proof--it's essentially heresay and insufficient to show WP:GNG is met. Zahne says that it's about the "notability of the topic, not the quality of the article", but there's a lack of independent evidence showing this even exists as "an ancient style and its origins are mainly traced back to the famous Buddhist and Daoist sects". I think the fact that the Chinese WP article on this topic has no sources and is considered to be of questionable authenticity is telling. Papaursa (talk) 03:34, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Sowerby, West Yorkshire#History. Confusion is clarified by The Northern Danelaw: Its Social Structure, c.800-1100, D.M. Hadley, Bloomsbury, 2001. Sowerby was not a shire; it was a scir, understood as a poorly understood unit of territorial organization under the northern Danelaw that had ceased to have any formal administrative meaning by the time of the Domesday Book but that was still in limited use in the early medieval period as a term describing an estate. When Sowerbyshire, an estate, appears in history it is as part of the manor of Wakefield.[60]. This article was probably honestly created, but I think it is more efficiently redirected and merged to Sowerby.E.M.Gregory (talk) 22:00, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Suggest that Sowerbyshire be similarly redirected to Sowerby, West Yorkshire#History because there is no indication that it was ever "a small shire" in the sense of shire as a political unit, but, rather, was some sort of populated place, estate, or strategic location and valuable estate at the time of the Norman Conquest but with so little historical documentation in the pre-Norman period as to make a separate article making the sort of claims this article does misleading.E.M.Gregory (talk) 22:11, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was merge to Thomas Myles. and Kilcoole. A bold close; but, there being a clear consensus for a merge, the only question is- where to? The emergent opinion- based as much on lack of exoressed views as on those expressed- indicates that both the individual most noted for involvement in the event and the place it took place are deemed the most suitable tagets. Irish Volunteers and Easter Rising gained little traction, and Howth almost none at all. There are few strong arguments presented, but the strongest are- after a month of discussion- favouring Myles and / or Kilcoole. The boldness of this close, I suggest, lies ore in the and than the or. I say nothing about the original necessity in bringing an article to a deletion discussion which even the nominator favoured merging; for future reference, note we have WP:MERGE precisely for that.

Relisting comment: There seems to be sufficient consensus to redirect/merge somewhere but not about the target. Since there can only be one redirect target, which should it be?

  • Merge and redirect to Howth gun-running (Maybe event change the title to Howth and Kilcoole gun-runnings?). There only seems to be recent coverage because of the festival thing or whatever, so I wouldn't call the news very reliable. But, it should be covered along with the Howth gun-running, as this gun-running was the backup plan in case the former went sour. RileyBugz会話投稿記録 19:23, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Smmurphy -- sorry for the delay -- I was trying to arrive at a decision. Between "Easter Rising and/or Thomas Myles and/or Kilcoole", I posit that Easter Rising might be the most appropriate. But if you have a better or more informed idea, let's chat. Yours, Quis separabit? 03:33, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I hesitate to reiterate my !vote, but I preferr Myles as a good place to redirect someone looking for information on this incident, although I don't have a particularly well-informed idea. From a policy/content perspective, I don't think any material on this page would fit in the Easter Rising page, and so I wouldn't think merging/redirecting to that page would be useful. If you really think it would, I'm fine with it. Smmurphy(Talk) 14:20, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I hate fourth relists but no consensus wouldn't be appropriate due to there being no consensus among merge/redirect targets (No consensus results in keep), and there is far from a solid consensus in general. This is a situation where I ask myself: Is a plurality of consensus required or a majority, not relying on pure !vote count?

Are you saying that, because NHOCKEY does not mention any women's ice hockey leagues, that women who play professional ice hockey in women's leagues cannot be considered notable under NHOCKEY? — This, that and the other (talk) 01:11, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: As long as being a hockey player is the sole stated premise of a subject's notability, yes, indeed, failure to meet NHOCKEY's a valid reason to delete. It's also true that the GNG supersedes NHOCKEY, but since neither Hmlarson nor anyone else has presented evidence that the subject can meet it, no article on her can be sustained. The reason that NHOCKEY accords no presumptive notability to women's leagues (save for women playing in the Olympics) has been exhaustively discussed on the talk pages of WP:NHOCKEY/LA, WP:NSPORTS and the hockey WikiProject, but they simply boil down to that nowhere in the world does women's hockey receive a level of coverage sufficient to presumptively declare every player in the league notable. Given that this is a standard issue throughout women's team sport -- the WNBA is the only women's team sport league in the world that is credited with presumptive notability -- this should be no great surprise.

  • Delete - Fails WP:NHOCKEY No indication of wide GNG. Article is well referenced, however all sources are essentially databases, stat sites, brief routine mentions or primary sources.

  • Delete The purpose of Wikipedia is not to right great wrongs.

  • Delete if people want another league to give default notability, they should seek to change the notability guidelines for hockey players, not ignore them. Is it just me or does hockey have a high rate of the creation of articles on non-notable players? This may indicate that our guidelines on other sports need to be tightened.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:45, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Reply: A lot of it comes from two factors. We had an editor who was prolific, obsessed with his article creation count, and hell bent on defying the criteria and consensus to create as many articles as he wanted; it took a community ban to shut him down at the last. The second was a bad mistake I made when I originally drafted NHOCKEY; I presumed good faith on the part of hockey article creators, that they'd exercise good sense in realizing what the criteria meant, that they'd agree to be governed by consensus in case of disputes, and that they wouldn't bring their own shibboleths and hobby horses to the process, and therefore I didn't need to go to the point I did at the last and spell out each and every league at each and every level. That was badly naive of me, and a great deal of work and angst among a great many editors over the years has been the result, for which I am deeply sorry.

  • Keep: I'm a new user, but when I looked over the rules, it seemed to be in accordance (at least the edited one is). And I for one support a new article on the 'Kingdom of Equestria'. That is, if it cited correctly. User:RainbowIsBestPony 5:38 28 August 2017 (UTC)

  • Merge and Redirect: While Jclemens is right that is has been mentioned in other sources, those are only mentions and do not focus on the kingdom itself, but rarther on the Show itself and therefore mention the kindom as part of it. Therefor this generates no notability for this article. Gial Ackbar (talk) 16:53, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How about making a "Settings" section in the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic article then adding the proper information of this page to that one? - Pure conSouls (talk) 12:03, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Agree: Fim article do lack a section for the world settings. --Eflyjason (talk) 15:57, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No objections, here. Kleuske (talk) 16:47, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to note that we'll have to find a way to condense the information properly, but I'm sure that wouldn't be too hardNavarre0107 (talk) 17:21, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to qualify the above with the firm expectation it will "neutrally summarize sources", refrain from original research and use reliable sources. Kleuske (talk) 17:26, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As I have previously mentioned, the current article has been edited as so that there are no longer original research, and all sources are reliable.--Navarre0107 (talk) , 00:46 30 August 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.85.201.45 (talk)
Wikia, which is cited four times, is user generated content and hence not a reliable source, much of the article is still unsourced. I maintain the article is largely WP:OR and/or badly sourced. Simply stating it's not, does not suffice. Kleuske (talk) 11:07, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Wikia, is not directly sourced, it is used for the transcripts of episodes, which is what the citation is for, the episodes. Is you would like, I'll attempt to find transcripts of the episodes on a different site, but either way, this does not change the fact, that the episodes are reliable sources about Equestria, while, understandably, Wikia is not.--Navarre0107 (talk) , 14:36 30 August 2017 (UTC)
As of two minutes ago, Wikia is no longer used as the link for the transcripts of the episode, so according to your definition of credible source, the page is fine.--Navarre0107 (talk) 13:41, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep:Though I am new with Wikipedia, I must agree with Navarre0107, you're argument over there being fan-created content is no longer really in effect, and my guess is, since Wikipedia has a citation template for shows of both fiction and non-fiction, I'm sure you should be able to use the shows themselves as citations, which they have--FLVSstudent417 (talk) 20:48, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I've also added three new citations from third-party news sites, and one extra book citation, in addition to the episodes themselves still being used as a citiation.--Navarre0107 (talk) 13:17, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Still non of them have the kingdom as a main topic, but the show itself, with the Kingdom as part of it. This just supports that it should be the same here: The Kingdom should be descirbed as Part of the main artile about the show. Gial Ackbar (talk) 15:58, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The Art of Equestria book, is largely about the development of the Kingdom and settings of the show themselves, so that argument isn't completely valid.--RainbowIsBestPony (talk) 18:04, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And the Hearth's Warming Eve episode citation are specifically on the founding of the Kingdom.--FLVSstudent417 (talk) 18:19, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I must agree FLVSstudent417 and RainbowIsBestPony, some of these sources are indeed specifically about the kingdom. --Navarre0107 (talk) 21:19, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
In its current version, I see no issues, other than it could use some expanding, but honesty, what Wikipedia page cant use some expanding. It has no original research, no fan-based sources, citations from books, episodes, and third-party news sites. And it does have plenty of notability. I still say that it is well and deserves a chance to grow as a full, independent article. --RainbowIsBestPony (talk) 05:02, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing as though no one has validly debated against the latest argument to keep the article, is it possibly safe to assume that the consensus is to keep the article? -Navarre0107 (talk) 12:25, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Given the summa summarum of the above discussions, I'd say: no, it isn't safe to assume that. Kleuske (talk) 12:27, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think Navarre0107, RainbowIsBestPony and FLVSstudent417 doing good job on the article. Maybe add more refs and specific information on the cities as well, like on Ponyville, Crystal Empire, Cloudsdale, etc. I don't want this article to be deleted as well. But if you guys don't work on it fast enough, I'm afraid that it will be deleted. Pure conSouls (talk) 13:19, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As you suggested, Pure conSouls, RainbowIsBestPony, FLVSstudent417, and myself, have all added references, and are currently working on adding more specific information. And, other than some perspective issues, as Eflyjason mentioned, I think the article is fully worth keeping.-Navarre0107 (talk) 19:48, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Also, some hints about writing style can be taken from Islandia (novel), Wonderland (fictional country), McDonaldland and others in Category:Fictional countries. :) --Eflyjason (talk) 08:33, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Navarre0107, FLVSstudent417, RainbowIsBestPony, and Eflyjason: I think it will be nice to include some information about the Everfree Forest in the article too. 😊 Pure conSouls (talk) 07:14, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Navarre0107 and I have both added to a Everfree Forest section of the article :) --RainbowIsBestPony (talk) 18:20, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would also like to add that the notablity of this article may be higher after the release of My Little Pony: The Movie. So keep working! 😊 --Eflyjason (talk) 09:39, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

We have two options:

  1. Keep the article, but move it to Equestria per WP:COMMONNAME
  2. Delete the article, and redirect both Equestria and Kingdom of Equestria to My Little Pony (2010 toyline). Remember that MLP is from toy maker Hasbro, and Equestria is also a prevallent location in other media within the 2010 relaunch (a.k.a. G4), so My Little Pony (2010 toyline) has a priority.

JSH-alive/talk/cont/mail 05:13, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@JSH-alive:, excuse me, Equestria already redirects to the article, and there is no valid reason to delete the article. By your explanation, there would be no fictional country entries at all, and yet, theres an entire category of them. Please explain your reasoning, since we have all basically agreed to keep the article as is.- RainbowIsBestPony (talk) 13:09, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@RainbowIsBestPony: Beware making points with Wikipedia:Other stuff exists and WP:OTHERSTUFF. (This usage is ok here, just a friendly reminder 😉) --Eflyjason (talk) 12:54, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@JSH-alive:, also, nothing in the rules of Wikipedia, state that any page should have priority over another--Navarre0107 (talk) 13:32, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@JSH-alive:, and even if different pages were given priority, the toy line is based on the show, not the other way around. Even it was at first. And, respectively, JSH-alive, looking at your numerous flagged and questionable edits, I doubt you have the right to be telling more expierenced editors (on the topic of My Little Pony, at least) what to do - RainbowIsBestPony (talk) 23:09, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@RainbowIsBestPony: Friendly reminder: WP:ABP --Eflyjason (talk) 13:02, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize, I'm just not a big fan of ultimatums, especially when they aren't completely warranted. I'm sorry if my argument got out of hand, that is completely my fault. It's just saying that's what we are required to do, when nothing particularly requires us to do it bugs me. I'm sorry. -RainbowIsBestPony (talk) 14:21, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I would support keeping and moving to Equestria per WP:COMMONNAME --Eflyjason (talk) 16:02, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Equestria already redirects to the page, do you mean renaming the page to just Equestria?--Navarre0107 (talk) 17:43, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Navarre0107: Yes. That would be a more common name 😊 --Eflyjason (talk) 09:51, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Eflyjason: But Equestria already redirects to this page, it seems redundant to completely recreate the article, just to change its name. - Navarre0107 (talk) 12:26, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Navarre0107: Moving does NOT mean cut-and-paste move, but rather move the whole page with history by requesting move, and make "Kingdom of Equestria" redirect back to "Equestria". So there is no need for recreating the article. And read WP:COMMONNAME too, which states "Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it generally prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources." But anyway, we shouldn't discuss about moving here in deletion request. If nesseary and the article is kept, I will request move after this discussion is over, and we can discuss it there. :) --Eflyjason (talk) 12:44, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Eflyjason:, thanks for the clarification, it was just confusing me a little, of course we can do that. And it looks like, by all accounts, the page will be kept, so no problem there. :) --Navarre0107 (talk) 14:07, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • We should keep the article and its current name, I definitely agree with what, RainbowIsBestPony and Navarre0107 said. Even "Equestria" redirects to this page. I don't think its must to change its name to simply Equestria. 😕 Pure conSouls (talk) 18:43, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I concur with Pure conSouls, Navarre0107, and RainbowIsBestPony, because Equestria redirects to the page, I doubt we would need to change the name.--FLVSstudent417 (talk) 20:41, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

With the recent approvals of keeping from the majority of the users involved within this deletion article, and the relative inactivity within the last twenty-four hours, is it now safe to assume that we have come to consensus to keep the article? Of course, we need to resolve the issue over renaming the article to simply, Equestria, but that's really more a topic for the talk page than a articles of deletion page.--Navarre0107 (talk) 14:01, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sidenote: I just created a new section of the Equestria talk page specifically for the debate over renaming the article.--Navarre0107 (talk) 14:06, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I believe it's better to wait until the normal end date and let admin decide. No need to rush. :) --Eflyjason (talk) 14:19, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  1. There's no in-universe evidence that the land's full name is the "Kingdom of Equestria", and not sure if we can call it a kingdom at all, since that fictional land is not ruled by a king. So, should the article be kept, it must simply be renamed Equestria. But Equestria already redirects to... Don't worry. You can go to Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests for assistance.
  2. In the age of the audiovisual media being most influential forces, some of you may want to think the current (a.k.a. "G4") MLP toys are by-product of FIM TV series. But technically, it's the other way round. You know Hasbro is a toy maker. The TV shows like this (as well as animated shorts, animated video films and, sometimes, theatrical feature-length films) is one of marketing strategies used by major toy companies these days. FIM is a part of the 2010 relaunch of MLP, and even the toy descriptions are set in the fictional universe of Equestria. It's commissioned by Hasbro (thorugh Hasbro Studios) after all. So, if the article is going to be deleted, both Equestria and Kingdom of Equestria must be redirected to My Little Pony (2010 toyline), NOT My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. Equestria is also the main location of the upcoming theatrical film.
