A BLP that lacks sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. Sigificant RS coverage not found. The article is cited to online directories, industry publicity materials, and other sources otherwise not suitable for notability. Does not meet WP:ENT and significant RS coverage not found.

Keep Per WP:ANYBIO for "the person has received a well-known and significant award or honor". She was Playboy's Playmate of the Year for 1996. That is well-known and significant award that is a household name and is only awarded to one person a year. The suggested redirect lists only Playmates of the month, which is a lower honor.

Keep -- The sources already in the article are more than sufficient to establish notability. Furthermore the sources found by Ross-c only strengthen the argument. Finally, nom gives no valid reasons for deletion. There's no requirement that an article subject "hold any constitutional post or any senior post in any political party." Nom states that "He is in news by making various allegations" as if this disqualifies him from having an article. In fact, it does not. In fact, it qualifies him. Just edit the claim a little: "He is in news." By nom's own admission, therefore, he's notable. 192.160.216.52 (talk) 13:30, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete looks promtional to me, and fails WP:GNG.Deathlibrarian (talk) 02:50, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral there's certainly a ton of coverage on him from Indian newspapers, mostly for his challenging of his political party's nomination of a relative of Gandhi. He also appears on television, and a search brings up article after article with his name in it. I don't have any problems with blanking the article as it stands as there are a ton of problems with it. I also have no idea how to gauge notability in this instance due to general unfamiliarity with Indian politics. I think it's closer than the delete votes have given it credit for, but I am also unwilling to argue for it as a keep under WP:GNG and due to the number of problems with the article as pointed out above, especially by DGG.

He appears on a daily basis on national news networks reaching millions and sometimes tens of millions of viewers. His article must be kept or it shows western bias as thousands of much less significant people article remains. That is if Wikipedia's pretensions of being considered a genuine encyclopaedia has to have a modicum of credibility. Thousands of online defences are available too. If there is problem with his article, editors responsibility is to edit and modify, not recommend it for deletion. And he is a conservative, so most probably Wikipedia types don't like hi,. There is nothing wrong with it, but that she not a criterion for non inclusion or deletion. And even if he is an agitator or flame thrower, that is irrelevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.39.218.27 (talk) 04:40, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The reviews cited above are not blogs but established independent reliable sources as confirmed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Resources. Reviews in high quality sources such as Screen International and printed film magazines such as Starburst are strong signs of notabity that together with the other rs reviews mean WP:GNG is passed, irrespective of theatrical release which in the era of netflix will become less common.

Simply_Justified_Productions

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

A small media company that appears to have been written by the company founder. Fails WP:COMPANY. Prod was declined by main editor on the grounds that the confusion between 'SJP' and 'Simply Justified Productions' makes it hard to show notability[1]

Per WP:BEFORE searches were done on both 'SJP' and 'Simply Justified Productions' in Google, Google News and Google News archive. There were a great many hits for SJP, none of which where for this company (SJP and the directors first name managed to find the directors linkedin and twitter pages). I found no RS for "simply justified productions" I'm afraid. Without any RS focusing on the company, I believe that it would be difficult to rewrite the article effectively, hence the nomination. (There are some references in the article, mostly focusing on projects that this company has worked for (I think), which may themselves me notable)

Delete, possibly speedy as a hoax per G3. I can't find anything, and I mean *anything* anywhere. I've looked through Google Books and normal searches and I've got nothing-- there should at least be a note about someone receiving it somewhere on some academic's bio. The only reason I'm not tagging speedy delete right now is that I don't speak Korean and can't search for Korean sources. Nomader (talk) 15:10, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I still say !delete despite MarginalCost's notes. The coverage is all about people "receiving the award" but I'll be damned if I can actually find anything at all. I was able to find this article [2] which talks a bit more about why the award was founded but I don't think any of these notes we're pulling up establish any kind of notability. I don't think it passes GNG-- that says, if any Korean sources pop up, would definitely like to see those. Nomader (talk) 21:28, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and move: Changing my vote to keep and move per 59.149.124.29's sourcing below, nice work. Inspecting them I think it addresses my concerns, really needed a Korean reader here. Nomader (talk) 04:23, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

~~Comment~~ - unlikely to be a G3 hoax, as professor Choi's official CV hosted on the Columbia university website does mention his receipt of the award. It uses the "Cho Rokkyo" award (word order reversed) which might be relevant for anyone searching sources. (Interestingly, it also notes he was the inaugural recipient back in 2008, meaning either a) there's been some recipients since that we should be able to find, or b) the award is now defunct.) I will hold off on !voting for now in the hopes a Korean speaker might turn up more sources as Nomader suggests. MarginalCost (talk) 17:13, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Change to Weak Keep - Note coverage of Taylor & Francis Group (though possibly just a press release, it's unclear to me immediately), and Press releases from Princeton and University of Tokyo on their own economists (Paul Milgrom & Michihiro Kandori) winning. It looks like some sources refer to it as the "Cho award" or the "Rok Kyo Cho award." See this blog post by notable economist Paul Milgrom for the connection to the shortened name. These are all pretty weak sources, but I think the underlying subject is notable. MarginalCost (talk) 17:32, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - @MarginalCost: One weird thing about the Milgrom post-- isn't he just quoting a press release based on those quotes? It doesn't look like that's his actual coverage there. Nomader (talk) 21:30, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep and move to R. K. Cho Economics Prize, which appears to be the common name. I added coverage from South Korean newspapers to the article, which is somewhat uneven but on the whole seems enough to pass WP:GNG. Some years (e.g. 2008 and 2010) all that newspapers said about it was one line with the awardee's name, but in others (e.g. 2015 and 2017) they wrote a great-deal more about the awardee's work & the lecture they gave upon receiving the prize. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 07:28, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please clarify. 1945 where? For pageviews, B vitamins gets 2,176/d, Vitamin B3 complex 77/d, and Vitamin B-3 only gets 2. Vitamin B3 redirects to this article instead of Niacin 1,862/d. -SusanLesch (talk) 22:39, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, with the understanding that the page will eventually be expanded. Vitamin B-3 is a redirect to Niacin, whereas there is an abundance of sourcing that indicates that Niacin and Nicotinamide together make up a discrete B3 group. (Vitamin B3, however, redirects to the page about the complex. That needs to be sorted out. Maybe the two redirects should be merged with the "complex" page, with a pagename that omits "complex".) What seems to me to be confusing for readers is that, if they come here simply looking for Vitamin B3, there are really two different pages that they would need to find out about. Regardless of terminology, it is clear from sources that there is a notable topic of "Vitamin B3" as a whole, and we should have a page that reflects that. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:36, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Tryptofish, I agree with you. What I can't support is the wrong article hogging the namespace "Vitamin B3". Then some kind soul inserted a hyphen in "Vitamin B-3". Vitamin B complex is a real thing. It's all eight B vitamins in one pill. Please keep this simple. -SusanLesch (talk) 23:04, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merging this article back into what's now "niacin" sounds good to me. Then please rename the redirect "Vitamin B-3" to "Vitamin B3". I don't know your protocol but the way forward is probably in Wikipedia:Merging#Merger_as_a_result_of_a_deletion_discussion or the following section. -SusanLesch (talk) 23:41, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Assuming the outcome here is to keep, I think there needs to be a more thorough discussion about the ultimate pagename. There should be consideration of the relationship between niacin and nicotinamide, and there should probably still be an overview page that includes both. --Tryptofish (talk) 00:02, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merge. "Vitamin B3 complex" does not appear in either Modern Nutrition in Health and Disease or in Advanced Nutrition and Human Metabolism. From Google, it seems to be some kind of commercial skin product. -SusanLesch (talk) 00:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@SusanLesch: Now that you have supported a merge, as opposed to outright deletion, we have the possibility of going to the procedure at WP:AFD#Procedure for non-administrator close (nominator withdrawal). As of this time, no editor has endorsed "delete", so this remains an option so long as no one does endorse "delete". At this time, we do not have consensus as to what exact form any merge, rename, or redirect would take, so that needs to be a separate discussion, on the talk page of of one of the pages involved (with "see" notices on the others). If you would be willing to take those steps, that would be a good resolution of this discussion. --Tryptofish (talk) 15:45, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Let's keep this open per Doc James who led me here. We already explained the intricacies here. Somebody else may wish to merge and then we can use Wikipedia:Merging#Merger_as_a_result_of_a_deletion_discussion. If they don't I am happy to follow through with Tryptofish's suggestion. -SusanLesch (talk) 16:39, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ha! Actually, looking more closely at Proposed mergers, I agree that it's backlogged and I also realize that it wasn't what I meant. I was actually thinking of WP:MERGEPROP, with a local discussion. Woops. --Tryptofish (talk) 19:20, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please ping me if I'm needed. Here's a quote from Oregon State's Linus Pauling Institute on niacin. "Dietary precursors of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), including nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, and nicotinamide riboside, are collectively referred to as niacin or vitamin B3." -SusanLesch (talk) 22:23, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vitamin B3 complex appears in zero other languages, Niacin in 62, and Vitamin B complex (redirect) and B vitamins in 53 languages. I look to the French for wisdom sometimes. They actually have an article on [Vitamin B3]. It says, sort of like Oregon State, "La vitamine B3 (C6H5NO2) est une vitamine hydrosoluble qui correspond à deux molécules : la niacine (acide nicotinique) et son amide, la nicotinamide, parfois appelée niacinamide." -SusanLesch (talk) 14:23, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Might be best to simple move it to the term Vitamin B3. Found a ref for a third form made the move and added a number of more references. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:59, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Doc James: Thank you for trying but no deal. My !vote to "merge" was to merge your one sentence into "niacin". Also I object (again) to this borderline WP:FRINGE "complex" hogging the namespace "vitamin B3". Martha Stipanuk, your choice of new sources, received nothing but accolades from my professor. That may be why it hurts me so much to see her textbook used like you have done. "Vitamin B3 complex" does not appear in her book Biochemical, Physiological & Molecular Aspects of Human Nutrition but somehow you cited her four times for your four sentence article. -SusanLesch (talk) 03:05, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vitamin B3 is not simple niacin so that would be a bad merge. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 09:59, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We really should not try to settle merge or rename issues here. That will have to be the next discussion. For now the question is whether or not the consensus is to delete, or to keep pending that future discussion. --Tryptofish (talk) 21:42, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Questions Where is the significant independent coverage that shows he meets WP:GNG? There's none in the article and my own search didn't find any. How does he meet WP:NHOCKEY? He doesn't as far as I can tell. Where is the SNG for roller hockey? I don't see any and WP:NSPORTS mentions competing at the highest level (eg., world championships). Are there any sources that show he competed at either the IIHF Inline Hockey world championships or the FIRS Inline Hockey world championships? It's not clear to me that competing in the first pro inline league gives automatic notability. Papaursa (talk) 16:14, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Notability (sports)#Basic criteria says "participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level (such as the Olympics)." (bolding mine) Being that RHI was the highest professional roller hockey league he meets WP:NSPORTS. -DJSasso (talk) 11:22, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And do you have some sort of source that indicates that RHI was in fact the highest professional roller hockey league. You have something to say that it was higher than the CERH? It is conjecture. The RHI had it moments, but they were brief, whereas the CERH has survived many years, but it is not exclusively professional.18abruce (talk) 20:37, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As you mention, not exclusively professional, whereas RHI was. Not to mention they play quad-rink hockey, which is a different sport than inline roller hockey. -DJSasso (talk) 01:00, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The guideline doesn't say anything about leagues, it says the highest level. Since the IIHF allows professionals I don't see how the world championships are not a higher level than a short lived league. Sandals1 (talk) 11:06, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Because it makes a distinction between professional and amateur. You have to be the highest in either of the two. While the IIHF tournaments allow professionals, they are still considered an amateur tournament. -DJSasso (talk) 11:33, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've never known any sport that allowed professionals to legally compete in an amateur competition. Papaursa (talk) 03:04, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the major sports in the Olympics do now. Hockey, Basketball, Figure Skating, the list goes on and on. -DJSasso (talk) 11:16, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You're right about professionals at the Olympics, but I don't know many people who call the Olympics an amateur competition--except for a few sports like boxing and wrestling (where professionals aren't allowed). It's like the open era in tennis, pros and amateurs could compete together but they were no longer considered amateur events. But I think we're off track so I'm sticking with my comment below. Papaursa (talk) 01:28, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails both WP:NHOCKEY and WP:GNG, nothing has been presented that satisfies either. The RHI is a notable league, participation in it does not infer notability. It did better than other roller leagues, but voting for inclusion simply because of participation there seems to be a serious stretch.18abruce (talk) 18:04, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We do know it was, it pulled in the best players from around the world and had the highest attendance and the most international coverage. Typically the three things we look at when considering the highest level. At very worst case it could be considered the same level, but it certainly wasn't lower level than any other league in the world. -DJSasso (talk) 00:57, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
delete As I said above the world championships have to be considered the highest level. I don't think the case has been made that all players in a league that lasted only a few years in a minor sport are automatically notable. When in doubt, we should look at WP:GNG and I see no evidence he meets that.Sandals1 (talk) 11:06, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I did some research on the RHI and it was made up mainly of minor and junior league ice hockey players who used it to compete over the summer between ice hockey seasons. At best, players made a few thousand dollars for the season which means this seems akin to semi-pro baseball (i.e., nobody was earning a living doing it). To claim that merely playing in this league confers notability seems to be a stretch. Nobody has provided any evidence he meets WP:ANYBIO or has significant coverage in multiple independent and reliable sources. I don't see how editors are claiming WP:NHOCKEY and WP:GNG are met. The burden of proof is on showing notability and that hasn't been done. Papaursa (talk) 03:04, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - While it is a Tier 1 match that he played for in Cambodia v Laos (a tier 1 International Match shall mean any International Match in which both of the teams participating are the “A” Representative Teams of the Members concern) it wasn't a competitive match and instead just a friendly. So still fails WP:NFOOTY Players who have played in any Tier 1 International Match, as defined by FIFA, in a competitive senior international match. NZFC^(talk) 23:03, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@NZ Footballs Conscience: You've misinterpreted the wording/punctuation of WP:NFOOTY. It'd help if it were better laid out, but what it means is:

Players who have played in, and managers who have managed in

any Tier 1 International Match, as defined by FIFA, or
in a competitive senior international match at confederation level regardless of whether or not the teams are members of FIFA, or
the Olympic Games.

So notability via FIFA Tier 1 international can be in a friendly: it's the confederation level matches that have to be competitive, e.g. matches involving Gibraltar in Euro qualifing before they were admitted to FIFA.

Delete Noron won his first cap in a friendly against Laos: [6]. I cannot determine whether this game was a Tier 1 match or not. Several reputable websites have the game listed. Others, such as FIFA's, do not. The ones that mention the game show Noron started, but only played 27 minutes.

Over two-third of the included drivers are already listed in the article on grand-prix winners. There is no evidence that they are independently notable as podium finishers as well.

There is nothing here demonstrating notability of the subject.T v x1 17:48, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Two thrids of drivers appering in another list is not a reason for this to be deleted, the two lists list a different achivevemts and a thrid of the drivers don't appear on the list for grand prix winners. As for What Wikipedia is not it talks about "Statistics that lack context" and therefore I think that List of Formula One drivers who have achieved a podium finish should stay as it does not lack context. As for the notabillity, I agree that the article could do with more links to rove notabillity but these will be added with time WP:ATD, however her are some source which I think prove notabillity, Lance Strolls Azerbaijan podium proves he belongs in Formula 1, |100 podiums for Hamilton, Hulkenberg's 7 missed chances to score his first F1 podium. These sources all prove that podium finishes are considered a major achivment and therefore I think that this list is notable. SSSB (talk) 15:04, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And that's just what it is your opinion. What you think. Your sources prove the notability of a couple of independent events. By now, Hamilton and Hülkenberg are notable for much more than merely having achieved a podium finish. The sources you cite do not prove that the whole list of them is notable.T v x1 17:18, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. Its not just my opinion, Hulkenberg's 7 missed chances to score his first F1 podium suggests that Hulkenberg would be more notable had he had a F1 podium and Lance Strolls Azerbaijan podium proves he belongs in Formula 1 suggests that Stroll would not be as notable had he not achived a F1 podium, these sources prove that it isn't just me who thinks that F1 podiums are notabale but that F1 journalists also consider a podium a notable achivment, weather it be the first or the hundredth or the fact you haven't achived a podium after several seasons. These sources are just a handfull of podium related articles where the podium is at the centre of the article, you have agnolged that these sources document something which is notable, if individual podiums (or failing to achive a podium after a long time in the F1) are notable I fail to see why all podiums wouldn't be notable and therefore I don't see why a this list is not, in your eyes, notable.

Those sources were all from the band's own website, whereas the sources in this article are from reputable media outlets. Also, this list is based off of televised performances only, which in my view, is not fancruft. The Metallica article was based off of every performance. I think televised performances are notable enough to be included in Wikipedia because it is not only fans who talk about them. Unlike concerts which only fans of the artist would go, many televison shows are watched by viewers who don't watch because the artist is going to be there, like Saturday Night Live. Also, Britney Spears, Madonna, and Beyonce all have Televised performances sections in their live performance articles with sources from reputable media outlets. I think a list of televised performances for Cardi B is notable enough to be included, albeit not in a separate article. I believe it is useful information that can help general readers get a sense of how to judge an artist better. That is why I think, for the time being, it is merged with the Cardi B article and included in a subsection. Heartfox (talk) 04:19, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Looks like promo, fails WP:GNG The Banner talk 12:08, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The article includes not only a reference to a CAD-related journal but also references to other independent reliable sources too. E.g. Digital Engineering not only provides a written review on ABViewer but also has posted a video review on the software: http://www.digitaleng.news/virtual_desktop/2014/08/a-quick-view-of-cadsofttools-abviwer/; an article was printed in the magazine Digital Engineering (in German): https://www.digital-engineering-magazin.de//sites/default/files/magazine-pdf/DE_2011_03_archiv.pdf#page=53 There are several articles from the Cadalyst web site that also provides objective articles (http://www.cadalyst.com/collaboration/file-sharing-publishing/more-meets-eye-cadalyst-labs-review-6300 and http://www.cadalyst.com/general-software/cadalyst-labs-review-view-masters-5567) etc.

Moreover, the presented references are written not only in English but also in German. Publications in several languages also underline the software prominence. Publications in other languages can be added too if required.

I have also searched for more references using the provided tools (e.g. Google news, scholar sources etc.) As a result, I have added one more reference to the ABViewer article (https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-232267303.html). However, there are much more references to ABViewer in those sections. E.g. the Google news section includes such ABViewer references as http://www.tenlinks.com/news/cadsofttools-releases-abviewer-v12-1/; https://www.cad.cz/aktuality/77-aktuality/8007-cadsofttools-nabizi-abviewer-ve-verzi-12.html (in Czech); http://product.pconline.com.cn/itbk/software/wjgs/1305/3305400.html (in Chinese) etc. It shows one more time that ABViewer is known in different countries all over the world. If links to these sources should be added to the article as references too, please let me know.

What is more, I have found references to ABViewer in a number of scholar articles. E.g.: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%22ABViewer%22. This again shows that people in different countries use ABViewer and mention it in their scientific works.--Olga cst (talk) 13:17, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

McArthur Lake

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

Completely unsourced article about a small lake, whose only evident claim of notability under WP:GEOLAND is that it exists. Every lake on earth is not automatically presumed notable just because it exists, however -- unlike Papakomeka Lake, there's a lot more detail here, but it's all unreferenced and some of it has a serious credibility problem: does anybody genuinely believe, sans references, that a lake of just 1.5 square kilometres in size is actually divided into four organized districts with their own official names and flags? And after an obvious eyebrow-raiser like that, do we really believe, again without proper references, that the names of the lake islands are actually accurate, and do we care about cataloguing their litter situations at all? The lake exists, I won't deny that -- but after "it exists", literally everything else this article says about it is parked somewhere along the road that runs between unverifiability at best and outright bullshit at worst.

Keep. All lakes are notable, and a listing in a relevant govermnment database is enough to establish notability. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 20:14, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, all lakes are not automatically notable — GEOLAND is quite clear that there's a distinction between notable lakes and non-notable lakes, namely "information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist" — and inclusion in a government database, which includes every named lake that exists at all, is not enough to demonstrate notability if it's the only source that can be shown. And I note that you avoided addressing my point about how much of this article's content is problematic. Bearcat (talk) 01:11, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Per WP:GEOLAND: "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist." This is about all I could dig up of any substance. It can't even be included in List of lakes of Ontario because it doesn't reach the minimum area. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:18, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ Neutral: I don't know that every conceivable lake is notable, but this seems to be subject to enough commentary to be notable. not to mention the song:
McArthur Lake is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it

Speedy Delete A7 there's not even one notable event here. Her Facebook page and the White Pages (!) are certainly not acceptable, I've removed them. power~enwiki (π, ν) 22:17, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Do Not Delete. How can you Say that there is not one notable event when there is in fact at least 3. Her being the first African American Flower Girl Designer to be featured in the Vogue’s bridal magazine is not notable. I surely. Would like to know what you all consider notable. Her being nominated for mother of the year is not notable. Which is all is he form of national news and headlines. Please explain what notable is because notable to means something that is important and worthy of attention and this is not, but this site is full of articles about individuals that does not even come close or equate to the accomplishments of Ms. Washington

Do not Delete: There are several notable and respectable references in regards to this article. Vogue House, The News, The New Paper, Exclusive Interviews with CBS and The Today’s Show, Magazine Feautures, News Paper Articles.

This woman has broke barriers and overcome homelessness and now helps the homeless. This previous event just shed light on things she had already accomplished.

Delete I evaluated the sources and information, and searched for additional sources. From a Google News search,[8] it appears that she received quite a bit of significant coverage in many secondary, reliable sources in several countries. The problem is that all the coverage is in relation to the single event/video that was posted. I think this is a case of WP:ONEEVENT. It's true that the subject's participation in the event was substantial, but the event itself does not seem to be notable enough for an entry (not enough in-depth coverage over time to indicate significance). If the event isn't notable enough for an entry (as indicated by continuing coverage), it means this woman's participation is not notable enough for an entry. That being said, if this person gets in the news with this much coverage for another event, or the event received continuing coverage over the next few months, or if the woman receives additional coverage about her as an individual (as opposed to in context with this event), that might be enough to satisfy notability. However, when I searched for additional sources, I couldn't find anything about this person except in relation to this event so I'm voting delete. Lonehexagon (talk) 17:38, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment-Your argument actually contradicts the guidelines in which you are trying to uphold. You are saying you are basing your argument specifically on a google search. In which you said there were several reliable sources in other countries. Does it matter what country the sources came from, as this is a worldwide encyclopedia? Continuing coverage? The initial coverage was over two weeks ago and if you look on google the most recent was 2-3 days ago. Along with her soon to appearing on the Ellen show. Being nominated for Mother of the year and the Colorado’s Outstanding woman of the year awards. Again I vote do not delete. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jd192581 (talk • contribs) 21:43, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I understand where you're coming from. I have had articles deleted before and I know how frustrating it is. The problem with this article is all the coverage about her is in relation to a single event, and that doesn't automatically confer notability according to the Wikipedia guidelines. If you read WP:ONEEVENT, it states that someone must be known for more than a single event, or if they are known for a single event, their participation must be substantial AND the event must be notable. I have not see significant discussion about the event in a way that makes it seem notable. What would that Wikipedia article be named? Do you have citations for these awards that contain significant discussion about Shaye Washington? It may be a case of WP:TOOSOON. This person needs to gain coverage about something unrelated to the event, or the event must continue to receive ongoing coverage to indicate that it's notable enough for its own entry. Lonehexagon (talk) 05:56, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I’m also looking at articles like Danielle Bregoli. How do you get a Wikipedia page for saying “catch me outside”. Why is that even important to American history any anyone’s history for that matter. Jd192581 (talk) 22:53, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jd192581 Notability is not about importance, or value to history/humanity etc, but just that you have reach notability in the world as set out in the guidelines. Many of the modern 'celebrities' like Danielle Bregoli I also personally see little value in, however as you'll see on the article Danielle Bregoli she has been covered in many reliable sources over a period of time, and is now also 'notable' for her 'music' that has charted in multiple counties. Shaye Washington (Damus) so far only has sources for the single event, with the other claims unsourced. If Danielle Bregoli had nothing more than the coverage for the "catch me outside" viral video she also would be unlikely to have an article. Hope that explains the difference.

keep. Has appeared in significant roles in multiple notable films and television programmes, and hence satisfies WP:ENT. Ross-c (talk) 08:20, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: A BLP that lacks any Wikipedia notability to pass GNG or WP:NACTOR (WP:ENT). Confusing search results with IMDb (mentionioned above), apparently used as an "External links" reference, that is not a reliable source per WP:RS, WP:Identifying reliable sources, or Wikipedia:External links/Perennial websites. Trying to determine WP:NEXIST did not produce any notability. One of the references shows him in "An Adding Machine", "Prisoner of Second Avenue", "The Proposal" but I can find nothing on these. Even using IMDb there is no biography information and the subject played minor roles in Fanaa (2006) as Defence Secretary, one episode of Byomkesh Bakshi (1993–1997) in 1997, and as Inspector Yadav in Sarfarosh (1999). I would not have looked this deep to try to prove something apparently unprovable but comments by @Ross-c: mentioned "significant roles in multiple notable films and television programmes" but I could not verify this and certainly cannot find biographical sources to change this from an undersourced pseudo biography.

Authors of books are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they exist — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:AUTHOR. apparently the subject authored only one book (which is non-notable at least by WP standards) so it fails WP:AUTHOR. Search doesn't produce any substantial information about the lady so I would say fails to meet basic GNG as well. For what it's worth, no entry exists on Arabic WP so I assume the author is not even remotely notable.

~~I don't know why @Nick Moyes: marked it as reviewed.~~ Saqib (talk) 10:35, 18 April 2018 (UTC) [reply]

Off-topic

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

Saqib The answer to that is simple, and you may visit the article creator's talk page to see the message I left for them. I flagged the page as probably not indicating notability and politely invited them to demonstrate this person meets our criteria by improving the page, with a promise to return and nominate the article for deletion if they did not. That page is now on my monitoring list and I would have taken responsibility for returning and taking action if the page creator had not demonstrated notability. I saw no reason in this instance to PROD or AFD a page within a few hours of it being created, as this just demotivates and demoralises potentially good new editors. And we're not here to do that, are we? My NPP tagging and feedback gives them a supportive steer as to what they now need to do; it alerts them to potential deletion if they don't demonstrate notability, and it takes pressure off other NPP reviewers and those at AFD if the subject were indeed shown to be notable. As promised, I shall return again now that you've taken the initiative to AFD, and will give it my !vote for deletion in a few days if they have not enhanced it. (Personally, I would like the NPP reviewers' Page Curation Tool to offer the option of leaving feedback not only to the article creator, but also to insert that text in the Talk Page of the article itself. Then it would have been easier for all with interests in that article to understand what concerns have already been raised and what future action might be taken. I hope this explains why I marked it a reviewed and templated it for notability. Regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 11:14, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merriam Webster defines multiple as "consisting of, including, or involving more than one". The OED, however, defines it as "Having or involving several parts", but if you look up the OED definition of several, it is "More than two but not many". In other words, there are definitions that define it as more than 1 or more than 2, but I haven't found any that say more than 3. --Ahecht (TALK

Keep - She's had the female lead in at least two films (Kisna and Stalled), and in the TV show Trinity. She had a profile in the Sunday Times. A superstar she is not, but this is notable enough for my sensibilities. I propose we mark the article for serious revision (the tone is not encyclopedic), but not deletion.

How do you figure?

this is a single mention of her name, nothing more.

This is a blog.

This is not coverage, it's the equivalent of imdb listings.

This is a WaPo opinion piece.

None of this amounts to significant in-depth coverage and doesn't verify much of anything in the article aside from the fact that she's had minor roles. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 17:27, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The article that you describe as a "single mention of her name" also describes her character as the central character in the TV series: "The storyline will follow character Charlotte Arc, played by St Trinian's Antonia Bernath". So while it is not robust coverage of her, it does demonstrate that she played a significant role. That, together with some theatrical leads does not strike me as merely "minor roles". - Kenirwin/(talk) 18:05, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Question. How would an interview article not establish notability. I checked WP:GNG, and it says nothing about interviews not counting. Ross-c (talk) 07:45, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Ross-c: An interview would not meet the "independent" requirement of WP:GNG. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 15:31, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Ahecht: I've checked WP:GNG, and that's not what they mean by independent. This is the text: '"Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent.'. An interview is none of those. Ross-c (talk) 19:08, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with @Ross-c:'s reading of WP:GNG. The content itself is not entirely independent of the subject because they are interviewing her, but it is being published by a reputable, independent source. And as far as the idea of notability goes, a subject should not be less notable because of the format of the coverage by a major newspaper. (I distinguish this from the verifiability of the content -- I would prefer for my facts not to come directly from the subject or her agent, except where framed as "what she had to say about her experience.") -Kenirwin/(talk) 21:27, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I could've sworn that not counting interviews was part of WP:NBIO, but I must've been thinking of WP:NMUSIC instead, which doesn't count "publications where the musician or ensemble talks about themselves" as inferring notability. --Ahecht (TALK

Not enough coverage in independent, reliable sources to verify or sustian article. Fails Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines and notability criteria for academics. Most of the sources in the article are simply links to her publications. The others are from university and other non-independent sites. GScholar does not show a high citation rate (I did not see anything over ~65) She is an associate professor and, barring significant coverage in independent, third party reliable sources, associate professors are not considered notable.

Comment Not working in psychology myself, I'm not the best positioned to judge, but I suspect that Teo's corner of academia is a comparatively low-cited field, so his GS h-index of 18 might count substantially towards passing WP:PROF#C1. In addition, he edited the Journal of Theoretical and Philosophical Psychology (and remains a consulting editor). Scopus ranks this journal in the 86th percentile of philosophy journals, citation-wise, so his editorship might count towards passing WP:PROF#C8. If kept, the article would definitely need de-promotionalization, but that's routine for academic biographies, and sources affiliated with the subject are considered acceptable for uncontroversial claims (e.g., where they attended school).

Comment Thomas Teo meets Wikipedia's Notable Scholar criteria WP:PROF#C1, WP:PROF#C4, WP:PROF#C6, and WP:PROF#C8 and I am recommending to keep the article. He is considered an influential researcher in the relatively small field of critical and theoretical psychology, evidenced in his authorship of numerous articles and books on the topic, including ones that cover a wide scope of the history and landscape of the field, such as his book Critique of Psychology: From Kant to postcolonial theory (cited 278 times according to google scholar), his 2015 article in the official peer-reviewed journal of the American Psychological Association American Psychologist called "Critical psychology: A geography of intellectual engagement and resistance", and in his role as the editor of the Encyclopedia of Critical Psychology, a 2100 page volume with 477 entries, which according to the publisher Springer's website has been downloaded over 85000 times and in 2016 was rated in the top 25% most downloaded eBooks the relevant SpringerLink eBook collection. In addition to the editorial positions mentioned in the comment above, he is also past-president of the American Psychological Association Division 24 Society for Theoretical and Philosophical Psychology.

Delete - basically a case of WP:ONEEVENT - he has been in the media thanks to the Cambridge Analytica scandal, but is not otherwise notable. NB that it isn't a 'puff piece', quite the opposite - if you read the version by the original author it is clear that that person went out of their way to paint everything Gettleson has done in a negative light. [Disclaimer: Mark Gettleson is known to me through the Liberal Democrats (UK), though I haven't spoken to him for at least five years and probably not for ten...] The Land (talk) 19:31, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep - although I can see why there were opinions to the contrary, once CNMall41 had made a series of curious and arbitrary edits, which emasculated the article of much of its most noteworthy content. Nonetheless, I would like to make the following points:

The article does indeed meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines - "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". In support of this, the following items referenced in the article would qualify:

As the above references show, the subject is not just a case of WP:ONEEVENT, not least as there are at least two major notable events which have had the subject at the centre of them, the 2015 push-polling allegations during the Liberal Democrats leadership election, 2015, and the 2018 Facebook-Cambridge Analytica data scandal. Furthermore, the subject's prominent role in the latter, now flagged up in the top line of the article, is indeed reason enough for the article. As WP:ONEEVENT says, "If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate." ABeLeaver (talk) 11:42, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a rampant WP:COATHOOK situation. By this reasoning, every employee of any company would get their own article if it could be shown that they were employed by that company during two notable events involving that company. We would need to have articles on every programmer at Facebook who played some part in programming their privacy criteria, every lawyer on Microsoft's legal team down to the lowest level associate, and every branch manager at Wells Fargo who pushed the company sales goals. bd2412 T 14:25, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

An oddly misleading response. The subject was not some low-level employee who was coincidentally employed at the time these two stories happened. In the case of the Lib Dem leadership election push-polling allegations, referenced above in multiple reputable sources including the BBC, Times, Guardian and Telegraph, the subject was one of two individuals at the centre of the story (the other, Gavin Grant (executive), already merits their own Wikipedia article). In the case of the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica data scandal, the only reason the story has emerged at all is that the subject was one of a handful of eyewitnesses to act as "whistleblower", in his case, over the Brexit dimension of the story - another, Christopher Wylie, already merits their own Wikipedia article. The subject is not some incidental employee, as you seem to be suggesting. ABeLeaver (talk) 18:44, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The article variously describes him as "a contractor", "an advisor", a "focus group expert" and "Senior Consultant (Messaging and Branding)" for the company that would later become Cambridge Analytica, but which this person left "early in 2015", which is before that company even did any of its encyclopedically notable work. The next company where he is described as "director of communications" is not even a notable company, and appears to have done nothing more than make unsuccessful bids to work on other projects. Worse than someone working for a company that happened to do notable things, this is a person who happened to work for a company and then left before it did notable things. This is a pastiche of misses papered together to look like a hit. bd2412 T 19:13, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The amount of content in this article is striking and maybe a bit misleading. There seems to be a lot of dot-connecting that creates tenuous conclusions about the subject's involvement in a wide range of events. Some sources used do not mention Gettleson even once. I'll grant that the articles listed above do come from independent, reliable sources, but that's not quite enough to pass WP:GNG. The way the article's written also makes it seem like Gettleson was the primary actor in the Cambridge Analytica/Vote Leave scandal. Gettleson was a background player at best or at least not the center of the scandal (he doesn't even warrant conclusion in the scandal's own Wikipedia article or in the Cambridge Analytica or Vote Leave pages). I do think this article qualifies as both WP:COATHOOK (because, in many areas, its goal seems to be building a case against the subject, using information from a broader, actually notable topic and occasionally using sources in which the subject isn't even mentioned) and WP:ONEEVENT (because the 2015 Lib Dem scandal—a non-event for which Gettleson was exonerated—was relatively minor and would never be enough to establish notability on its own).Gargleafg (talk) 01:26, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It's a rambling mess of an article.

A keep vote would require massive amounts WP:TNT to narrowly focus why he's notable. Also fails WP:NPOL, for what it's worth. SportingFlyer talk 02:21, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)Delete as most likely hoax and I removed mention of Banu Khorramdin from Babak Khorramdin. The mention of her was added by Class Avesta who was blocked as a vandalism only account; (see block log) unblocked and created this page and reblocked for disruption. There are lot of dubious looking claims, such as "The famous female commando and revolutionary Banu, is to this day considered by most Iranians as a heroine." and I'm unable to find anything that isn't a dubious website that looks like it copied from wikipedia to suggest that what Dandamayev says isn't true, that it is a hoax (I was actually looking through pre-2012 sources and the one was actually 2015 which looked reasonably copied from the wikipedia entry). The one source was added later and isn't about her that I see. In the addition of Banu Khorramdin to Babak Khorramdin's page, Class Avesta changed direct quotes. All his edits should be reverted/scrutinized. Apparently randomly 10 tupling arabs killed in one diff of this article too. pingó mió) 13:39, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at other creations, see:

Sura_of_Parthia very dubious quite sure hoax no real results before 2011 on the web or in google books
Amitis (wife of Cyrus the Great) able to find more, looks ok
Ardavān_V was redirected, able to find more seems like they are on the same topic but none clearly say is alternative name

Actually, Dandamayev what do you say about those three articles? Galobtter (pingó mió) 14:13, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

well Galobtter, Amitis was mention in report of Ctesias as daughter of Astyages , and aunt of cyrus and subsequently (after killing of her husbend) as his wife, but scholars almost conform Amitis with Cassandane (Official wife of cyrus which is reported in history of Herodotus). for persian studies we have problem with greek reports. because they report different names for one person (such as bardiya/smerdis), hence we don't know cyrus has two wives or one wife which is reported in 2 historical reported with 2 different names.

for Sura_of_Parthia,neitheir i didn't see her name in reliable sources (in Primary or secondary) nor heard her name in my entire life. i think it's fake.

Ardavān_V is true. this is persian name for Latin/Greek counterpart Artabanus. you can see also Encyclopædia Iranica, s.v: ARDAŠĪR, ARTABANUS (Old Persian proper name), ARTABANUS (Arsacid kings). these article are reliable and academic and verifies his name.--Dandamayev (talk) 15:09, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Probably overreading this, but suspicious that editor interaction utility shows History of Persia a few years later, a known socketeer and hoaxer made very similar changes (adding references to bad sources that copied from Wikipedia) to two of Class Avesta creations, Sura of Parthia and Amitis (wife of Cyrus the Great), on the same day. Both articles are in similar topics but not directly linked and pretty obscure articles. Galobtter (pingó mió) 14:13, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Middlebrook ...." The definition in this manual also refers to Middlebrook's paper on "Right-financing Security Forces".

Redirect to Nightmare Stage. This micronation isn't even a micronation in the "conventional" sense, just a satirical element of a defunct Croatian TV show. There's no hope of notability independent of the show. Under the perhaps-optimistic belief that the show itself is notable, a redirect is the sensible outcome. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 01:21, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hard to say. This was indeed only tongue-in-cheek, not an actual micronation in any sense, but Malnar's Nightmare Stage was to be a pretty big deal for almost two decades; the show and its characters were a somewhat regular fixture in the media. What bothers me here is lack of commentary -- the secondary sources I can find are just reports of Republika Peščenica stunts on and off TV. Given the wide coverage of Malnar, I'd be surprised if there wasn't an opinion piece by a blue-link-worthy journalist about Republika Peščenica somewhere. However, as many of the major Croatian publications of the 90s and early 00s don't have online archives reaching that far, if their articles even were published online, the chances of finding it today aren't good. Maybe it would be best to merge this into the Nightmare Stage article for now. Daß Wölf 02:15, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm kind of leaning more toward a keep now. I've even found what seems to be significant coverage in Czech [23] (in a comparison to Liberland 5 years after Nightmare Stage ended and 2 years after Malnar's death). I'd say that articles about it in context of Liberland (e.g. also [24] [25]) outweigh the TV show's scope, although there seem to be very few of those with non-trivial coverage, and I'm still not sure if there's a proper article to be had with so few sources. Daß Wölf 23:01, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's very interesting - Czech! And what is even more interesting, it seems to be discussed independent of the "main topic" (Nightmare Stage), which may well be forgotten soon, as TV shows usually are. Changing therefore to keep. GregorB (talk) 07:44, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing to do with notability, but still interesting: the article was created by a User:KDGMusicGroup, some sort of music business outfit which I can't find online apart from a trademark application for "RAYLA" on Justia, and proposed deletion was contested by a sockpuppet per WP:Sockpuppet investigations/KDGMusicGroup/Archive.

Delete. Politicians at the municipal level are not handed an automatic WP:NPOL pass just for existing, but this is not referenced to particularly substantive coverage about him for the purposes of getting him over WP:GNG: apart from his own self-published website about himself, the only other references here are the exact same routine tables of raw election results that every single person who ran in the election at all could show regardless of whether they won or lost.

Film directors and producers are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they exist — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:AUTHOR. Apparently, the subject has directed only short film (which is not notable by WP standards therefore I dont see its significance). The subject has also directors video of some songs - I'm not sure though. He has also received some press mentions like mention in passing But I don't see passing GNG.

Actors are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they exist — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:ACTORBIO.

A BLP that lacks sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. Sigificant RS coverage not found.

Needs a source review lots of low-quality refspamming, questionable Bitcoin blogs etc. If it were cut down to the facts that made it to high-quality RSes, it'd be quite a short article about (1) an ICO (2) Larry Sanger's involvement being the core of the coverage - a lot of it entirely hinges on Sanger, rather than anything about Everipedia itself - (3) that one article exploring what a terrible encyclopedia it is.
