I have nominated this article for deletion for the following reason; Is it Notable? - specifically it seems of temporary interest. As the bill did not progress beyond the committee stage and will make no further progress it has no historical significance and has not received press coverage since a handful of articles in newspaper since it was proposed in 2013. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cappo198 (talk • contribs) 17:08, August 16, 2019 (UTC)

- Keep Clearly satisfies WP:GNG. It received significant coverage in a wide variety of high-quality sources between mid-2013 and early 2014. It has been less discussed since then, but it is not accurate to say it hasn't received any coverage since 2013. Here are a few examples of coverage in recent years: [1], [2], [3], [4]. Moreover, the article is pretty well-written, well-referenced, and linked to by more than half a dozen mainspace articles. Deleting it would be doing a disservice to the encyclopedia. Colin M (talk) 21:41, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - I think there's enough here to meet the notabilty guideline. The fact that it's only a bill does matter, but not that much -- we should also weight the amount of coverage the bill received on an ongoing, long-term basis as referenced by Colin M (talk · contribs) -- plenty of proposed legislation that never is enacted ends up becoming a major story in and of itself and are worthy of an article. Michepman (talk) 00:03, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per others. If this is closed, we may consider reconsidering whether or not Succession to Peerages Bill (2015–2016) and Succession to Peerages Bill (2016–2017) are notable. FoxyGrampa75 (talk) 16:17, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

I think this school is is WP:MILL. Rockphed (talk) 11:45, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
- Repurpose as Mountain Valley School District. At the end of the day we need to take a view as to whether the Project gains from the deletion of a page and I don't see how deleting an article on a public school is beneficial. However, whatever view is taken on the notability of high schools, school district articles are invariably kept. In this case we have a one school district. Therefore moving the page and rewriting the lead to reflect the district (which I am happy to do) seems the pragmatic way forward. 2A02:C7F:4481:8300:90DC:E235:5074:54B0 (talk) 21:22, 14 September 2019 (UTC)

- List of living former members of the Ontario Legislative Assembly (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)
Dynamic and unreferenced list that isn't being adequately maintained for utility or accuracy. Firstly, the creator of this list applied an arbitrary cutoff date to it, not adding anybody who was elected to the legislative assembly in or after 1990 even though there's no real reason to treat that year as the bright red line of irrelevance to a list of living former MPPs -- the only reason I can discern for leaving post-1990 MPPs out is that he just didn't want to actually put in any more work. (And if you want to try the argument that post-1990 MPPs are younger and thus simply expected to still be alive without having to be noted as such, well, David Caplan's got news for you.)
Secondly, even former MPPs who are here are not actually getting removed from it when they do die; just on a partial spotcheck of random articles, I caught four people who died within the past year but were never removed from the list at all (and no, Caplan wasn't even one of them, since he was post-1990 and thus never got added here in the first place), and I'm not overly inclined to go through the entire list by myself to check for any other zombies.
And thirdly, the list is violating some very important principles of accessible design -- instead of denoting party affiliation with a small coloured box in front of the row, this is colour-blocking the whole row. But we decided at least a decade ago that we shouldn't do things this way, because people with visual impairments (colour blindness, etc.) may have difficulty reading text against saturated coloured backgrounds -- and even people without visual impairments are a bit fuckered here too, if a Liberal MPP represented a district that doesn't have an article yet. Red on red...very bad idea. (Red on orange, if an NDP MPP represented a district that doesn't have an article yet, isn't exactly a million times better either.)
This was a good faith creation at the time, but it's not worth keeping if we can't commit to maintaining or updating it consistently -- this is not such a critically important page for us to have that it would be worth keeping in a misleading and incomplete form just because bad is "better" than nothing.

- Delete Even disregarding these major clean up issues, I don't see the notability and encyclopedicity of such a database of people. I'm not even sure what anyone is supposed get out of this information (especially since it's not exactly reported by anyone other than the organization they're members of). I don't think it's been formalized anywhere but these sort of sections on lists on positions have been somewhat deprecated. Reywas92Talk 01:06, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

- I agree that there's no informational value in splitting out what former members of this legislature are still alive, but I'm also having trouble finding a broader list covering all members or former members without regard to that status. So perhaps this should be expanded by dropping "living" from the criteria? postdlf (talk) 14:12, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- We don't have one single "unified" list of all former MPPs anywhere, but such a list would have several thousand members and would be too long to be useful or maintainable — what we do already have in place, however, is standalone lists of the members of each session of the assembly, categorized at Category:Terms of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.

- Delete, I personally see no significant notability, nor see any sense of statements or refs that could prove notability. In addition, there seems to be a heavy sense that the article is of a promotional nature. - Navarre0107 (talk) 02:53, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete, apparently non-notable – seems to have published one article, which has been cited 5 times, and thus to have an h-index of 1. And yes, it certainly looks very much like paid work; Ruhri Jörg, were you hired to create this page? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 16:12, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep: Hi all. Same old story - apparently I'm still struggling to find the right balance between wanting to create new articles for people in alumni / faculty environments that I find interesting and think might pass as notable - and them actually doing so. In this case I judged that Baradello wouldn't pass academic notability, after looking at his h-index, but thought that the Spanish sources (esp. this one in El Diario, this and this might suffice and had enough to allow for an article. Especially since the first one was a full cover and not just some trivial mention. But maybe it's too regional? He seems to be a voice in the sector of innovation and I tried to keep the article very neutral. But probably was still influenced by Speaker.com and others. Since most of you are much more experienced than I am - as per usual I bow to the majority vote... just wish I got this figured out faster so I don't always invest so much work :P Should I do this in the sandbox in the future and ask for feedback first? Is there anything else I can do better to make sure they actually pass? Feedback appreciated --RuhriJörg 14:36, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

- Keep - I have been involved in a deaf community and I can tell you that deaf people communicate and express themselves in ways completely different to hearing people (see Deaf culture) - if this article seems stilted and awkward, it's a deaf person trying to express themselves in hearing language - that said, the article is really a list of deaf news outlets - the article is lacking in sources, but Wikipedia:Notability (media) allows that periodicals are notable if they are "significant publications in...non-trivial niche markets" - the deaf community is a non-trivial niche market - unfortunately, only the link to www.thebuffandblue.net is working, all the other links to deaf news outlets listed in the article are dead links - the article could be deleted due to lack of sources, but my experience with the deaf community and knowing the exclusion that they experience from the hearing world makes me lean towards a keep - Epinoia (talk) 21:36, 14 September 2019 (UTC)

- Comment AfD is not cleanup. As written, the article clearly fails WP:NBIO and various NACTOR. There is no indication that any of her roles (mostly, voice) where for major characters. No indication she has any fans, got covered in press, etc. FoxyGrampa75 mentions music involvement but it is not discussed in the article at all. As far as I know, idolmaster is a large group, so it's not like they were solo works, through this wikia page suggests there is a lot of related products. There's some minor celeb coverage in anime-fandom [9]. This probably needs fixing, rather than deletion, through I think her notability is more related to passing NMUSIC than NACTOR. I'd appreciate if someone else familiar with NMUSIC could confirm she passes based on this criteria; please ping me if there is more discussion on that. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:55, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

The result was delete. As per the standards usually applied to political candidates, routine coverage of a Congressional race does not confer notability on all the candidates; they must either win, attract some unusual coverage beyond the routine, or already be notable for some other reason.

I added this article because I believe the original should not have been deleted to begin with. Damian Kidd is a noteworthy person because he challenged Jason Chaffetz due to his support for Donald Trump and Kidd was a part of the pushback against the current US President's policies. Adjohnbrock
- Running for office is not enough to satisfy WP:NPOL. It does not make him notable. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:30, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
Garnering national media coverage does though: Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage. I've cited multiple national media outlets that covered his political run. Adjohnbrock (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:46, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Those sources cover Chaffetz and barely mention Kidd, like this one. This source you cited doesn't mention him at all, and neither does this one, or this one. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:56, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
Sure. But this one from the Washington Post discusses his involvement at length and even has Kidd's photo at the top. Again, I feel this sort of press coverage makes Kidd noteworthy regarding the blowback against the President in historically conservative regions of the US.Adjohnbrock —Preceding undated comment added 21:00, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. People are not deemed notable just for running as candidates in elections they did not win, and they are not automatically more special than other candidates just because of the profile of who they ran against. And no, to deem a candidate a special case of significantly greater notability than the norm still requires a lot more than just one piece of more than local coverage — the bar he would have to clear is that his coverage had exploded to Christine O'Donnell proportions (i.e. so much nationalized coverage that a full decade later, her article is still to this day longer and more deeply sourced than our article about the guy she lost to, even though he's been an actual senator for that entire decade). This is not referenced even close to well enough to make his candidacy markedly more special than everybody else's candidacies. Bearcat (talk) 23:54, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Preserve.Unfortunately, Wikipedia is full of failed candidates who didn't receive the coverage you are alluding to. In fact, here's one right here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Morgan_(lawyer). What makes this person's wikipedia notable and not Damian Kidd? Neither one of these people won a single term in office. Hardly fair to bend the rules for one person but not another.Adjohnbrock
- He doesn't have an article because he was a candidate; he has an article because he's properly sourced as having already been notable enough for other reasons that he qualifies for an article regardless of his candidacy — and, in fact, he already had an article two years before he was ever a candidate for anything at all. People who were already notable enough for Wikipedia articles under other criteria don't lose their Wikipedia articles just because they also happened to run for political office and lose — we're not deleting Hillary Clinton, either, since she had already held three other notable political roles before she lost the presidential election, and was thus already notable regardless of whether she won or lost — but that does not mean that people who weren't already notable enough for Wikipedia articles get into Wikipedia because they were unsuccessful candidates. Bearcat (talk) 16:11, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- @Adjohnbrock:, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is an argument to avoid in deletion discussions. We're here to discuss Kidd, not Morgan. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:28, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Whatever. Seems pretty arbitrary to me. The rules are only ever really enforced to protect the sanctity of the popular club. My mistake. Delete away then. Adjohnbrock
- Delete In addition to failing to meet notability standards there is a likely undisclosed WP:COI with the article's creator and the Kidd's law firm, given the editor also created a bio for Kidd's partner, Matthew Driggs (lawyer) (CSDed under G11, appeal denied). Best, GPL93 (talk) 18:59, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

- Delete based on my standards at User:Bearian/Standards#Non-notability. It's not policy, but it fills in where the policies don't go. In this case, there's absolutely nothing he's done as a lawyer that's beyond run of the mill. As a politician, he never made it past a vote of a district convention - in fact, he never even appeared on a public ballot in a primary election. Lots of people run in conventions, but that does not make them notable as we define it. Perhaps the gentle reader thinks that being a leader of a "never Trump" movement matters?

BMI Gaming does not meet GNG. They are a very small company that sells arcade machines with only 21 employees listed on their Linkedin company page. They have no press coverage from reliable 3rd party sources. The only thing that comes up on Google are social media pages, directory listings for the company, a few reviews, and inclusion on a few ranking lists. If any of you worked in B2B marketing, you would know that inclusion on rankings lists is something you pay for. It generally costs around $3000 for inclusion on some magazine's "Top 100" list. Paid media is not credible for establishing notability. I don't see how a small company that sells arcade machines meets Wikipedia's notability standards. The Chinese carry out across the street from my apartment has more press coverage than BMI Gaming and they aren't on Wikipedia. Sonstephen0 (talk) 18:57, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Résumé-like WP:BLP of an engineer, not properly sourced as clearing our notability standards for engineers. The references here are his own résumé in a Dropbox account and the self-published website of an organization he's directly affiliated with, not reliable source coverage that would establish his notability -- and while there are awards listed in the infobox (but not addressed in the body text), every award that exists is not always an automatic free pass over WP:ANYBIO: even an award still counts as a notability claim only to the extent that the award itself can be reliably sourced as a notable one, and people are not exempted from having to have any non-primary sourcing just because the article has the word "award" in it. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt Saffa Riffat from having to have much better sources than this. Bearcat (talk) 18:51, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Highly advertorialized article about a television advertising producer, not properly referenced as clearing our notability standards for that career. The notability claim here basically boils down to claims that he won awards, but every award that exists is not always an automatic WP:ANYBIO freebie that exempts a person from having to clear WP:GNG on the sources -- the difference between an award that counts as a notability-maker for its winners and an award that does not hinges specifically on whether that award gets media coverage about the award presentation or not. An award whose ceremony gets reported by the media as news makes its winners notable; an award that can be referenced only to the awarding organization's self-published press release, because media coverage about it is non-existent, does not. But this entire article is referenced only to an award organization's press release, and everything else in it is personal information added by the subject himself with no sources for any of it. Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform for people to write about themselves in an advertorialized way; it is an encyclopedia, where notability requires real reliable and independent sources.

- Delete. We've been over this many times: producers are almost never notable, and adjuncts are neither. Of course, a producer could be come notable for the length of their career, significant coverage in reliable sources such as unpaid coverage in Variety, winning a Grammy, or cutting-edge work, but that's all missing here. Producers, lawyers, and agents often work side by side with famous singers and musicians, but notability is not inherited from their co-workers. Finally, producing a work at the Venice Biennial is not automatically a "gimme" - it's a huge art show over more than a month and often involves thousands of artists; I'd include it as a reason for notability for an artist, but again it's a footnote.

The licensing deal between Hasbro and Marvel for the Transformers comics gave Hasbro the copyright/trademark/legal rights to every concept and character that debuted in the series, which showed the giant robots interacting with Marvel heroes like Spider-Man. Circuitbreaker was created for Transformers, but Marvel snuck her into an issue of Secret Wars first to retain copyright to her. She became a significant character in the Transformers comic, but when the license passed on to different publishers in later decades, the copyright status played havoc with attempts to reprint the old Marvel stories. See this, this, and this for starters.Argento Surfer (talk) 14:08, 18 September 2019 (UTC) |
- @Argento Surfer: Good finds, as it finally shows some intersection with real worlds impact/significance, through they all mention this character in passing, just as one of the examples of the copyright issues in Marvel / Transformer licencing. I think NFICTION/GNG requires some in-depth coverage, and so far we don't have as much as a paragraph on her. I'll also note that the book you cite, while mentioning her name several times, is self-published (lulu.com). Still, that's a start, and again, thanks for finding those.

Biography of a person notable only as a smalltown mayor, not referenced as the subject of enough reliable source coverage to clear WP:NPOL #2. To be fair, this was actually created in 2004, a time when we accepted an article about practically anybody who had ever been mayor of anywhere because we hadn't really codified our notability standards for politicians at all yet -- but under the standards that apply in 2019, making a smalltown mayor notable enough for an article requires a lot more than just one or two pieces of cursory verification that he existed. Mayors are also not automatically notable just because they've had local infrastructure in their own town named after them, so the library and the hospital aren't notability clinchers -- but the sources here are a primary source that is not support for notability at all, a single retrospective article in the local newspaper, and a brief unsubstantive blurb about the probation of his will -- but every mayor of everywhere can always show two or three sources of this type to verify that he existed, so this is not enough to establish the permanent notability of a smalltown mayor all by itself. The key to making a smalltown mayor notable enough for an article is to show substantive and well-sourced reasons why he's much more special than most other smalltown mayors, not just to verify that he existed.

- Comment I found this source [23] that mentions him with the post-nominal KC or King's Counsel which would mean that he may meet #1 of WP:ANYBIO. There is also mention of him in the Encyclopedia Britannica [24] and other passing mentions [25] but nothing consequential sadly. Dom from Paris (talk) 17:04, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Even a KC/QC lawyer still has to have reliable sources that go beyond just glancing namechecks of his existence — and we would need to see an Encyclopedia Britannica article about him, not just a mention of his name in the entry on the town, to count that toward GNG either. So, yeah, nothing consequential here. Bearcat (talk) 17:52, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Give the timeframe, more work is needed to ferret out sources from newspaper archives, but that doesn't mean the article should be deleted. You can see that he was re-elected 24 times, so there should be more cited. --Auric talk 19:32, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Per NPOL, smalltown mayors get to keep articles only if they have a credible and properly sourced claim to being much more special than most other smalltown mayors, and the number of times a mayor got reelected is not such a claim in and of itself. Given that we're talking about an era in which mayoral elections were held annually, 24 elections wouldn't even make him an unusually long-serving mayor — serving for 24 years as mayor of a small town is hardly unprecedented, and wouldn't even get him into a list of the top 100 longest serving mayors in North American political history. Even being able to provide 24 pieces of technical verification of his election results still wouldn't even contribute a bloody thing to his notability, if there were no sources focusing in detail on the work he did in the mayor's chair.
And we also don't exempt articles from having to be properly sourced just because somebody speculates that maybe better sources might exist somewhere that nobody has actually found yet — articles that are not already making a valid and properly sourced notability claim get kept on WP:NEXIST grounds only if somebody shows hard evidence that the quality and depth of sourcing needed to get the article over the bar definitely does exist, and not if all you do is idly speculate about what might be possible. And so far, the only new references you've added to the article are a biographical source about the mayor's father, tangential confirmation of the death of his predecessor in what isn't even his most potentially notable role, and coverage about other things that got bequeathed money in his will — you have yet to add even one single solitary new source which has anything whatsoever to do with getting Fisher over NPOL as a person. Bearcat (talk) 19:36, 16 September 2019 (UTC)- Most of the articles I've found have more to do with his will and the results thereof. Note that the money didn't go to those things, they went to the creation of those things. I don't think I've seen any other mayors that have done the same. --Auric talk 10:25, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- The distinction between "those things" and "the creation of those things", in terms of where the money went, being...? Also, you're obviously not familiar with a very significant number of mayors if you think a mayor bequeathing some of his estate to the city for municipal projects is unprecedented or unique. Bearcat (talk) 15:23, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- His estate (the majority of it) went to the creation of the L. P. Fisher Public Library, the Fisher Memorial School, and the Carleton County Vocational School. They funded their construction, not just to enrich pre-existing buildings. I didn't link to the notices of tender, but I can. The Fisher Memorial Hospital was previously his mansion and presumably, the money went to help its conversion into a hospital. --Auric talk 16:59, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

- If the sources exist, please produce them here (such as url links, relevant offline publications, etc). I personally found nothing in a google search, a JSTOR search, a google books search, and a google news search. There are no sources in the article which demonstrate the threshold of notability required in WP:GNG, and with none being produced here at this AFD then the subject can not be considered verifiably notable. Your assurance that there are noteworthy sources is not good enough. You must actually produce them so others can look at them, and agree with that assessment. If you can not do that, then the assumption is that they do not exist and that the subject is not notable. In other words, without evidence presented, there is no evidence to verify notability to earn a keep.4meter4 (talk) 22:30, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

- Delete: The whacky acronyms of the titles discussed in the article (CARS and BOSS) are mildly amusing, but this article is describing a cog in a large machine, without giving any context about it. I believe it is eligible for speedy deletion, but that's probably just me. flowing dreams (talk page) 13:42, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect to telecommunications billing. I believe the Phrack article is a reliable source for hacking of telecommunication systems, most or all of the article stems from that source. The context seems obvious to me; hackers want to know details of customer databases to aid in their activities. Such details are typically not made public, which is why there are no other secondary sources from mainstream publishers. With the one source, the article fails notability guidelines, but is still verifiable material. Unfortunately, I could not find any suitable merge targets. CARS is a type of telecommunications billing program (among other things) and a redirect would be useful to at least give context for the topic. Per our deletion policy WP:ATD, alternatives to deletion are preferred over deletion for verifiable material, and I think redirect is the best compromise here. --

Weak delete - there are claims of notability - such as being involved at a high level in the Masons - but no significant coverage. Bearian (talk) 15:51, 10 September 2019 (UTC)- Keep - The article would seem to have been improved since the nomination was made as there are references in it which are drawn from major academic works on the growth of the labour movement and socialism in Scotland notably Donachie, Harvie and Wood (1989) and Kenefick (2007). These would seem to suggest that Glasse was of importance in labour and Socialist politics, especially if Lowe signaled him as being of importance in 1919. Equally the Webb comment at the start would support this. Also if he is credited with founding the first Glasgow branch of the ILP then this is of huge significance given the importance of the ILP to Glasgow History. I do think the article could be constructed more effectively and I would like to see if material from other Scottish and labour histories could be added to further demonstrate his importance.

Originally a highly promotional article, which has been edited to remove much of the more blatant promo issues. However, I still think there's a WP:CORPDEPTH issue because, despite the copious references, they are almost all articles about a famous/interesting weapon that is being auctioned, and give a passing mention to the auction company. The only exception are a couple of small articles in trade publications, which should be taken with a huge pinch of salt given the questionable independence. Overall, a lack of reliable, independent sources covering RIA in sufficient depth, so this is a WP:NORG and WP:GNG fail. Hugsyrup 10:00, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

There's a lot of mentions in passing, but they are generally one liners, quite a few are photo credits. I don't see anything that suggests SIGCOV or NCORP is met here. I will caution the closing admin that AfD is not a vote, and nobody voting keep has explicitly mentioned which references are good, all I see is just a sentiment that WP:THEREMUSTBESOURCES, and I will repeat that I just spent several minutes looking for them and failed to locate any. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:19, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per Piotrus. I too couldn't finding any sources that were significant enough in coverage to meet WP:GNG or that would indicate the article met the criteria at WP:SIGCOV or WP:NCORP. There's a lot of trivial mentions in independent sources, but none where the organization itself is the primary subject.

There is absolutely no difference between this article and other similar opinion polling articles in the en.wiki, the only measurable reason brought for deletion being an obsession with the size of the article, which is not even close to a valid reasoning for deleting an article, and just because the nominator couldn't win their case through at the proper discussion.

- Split. Obviously a notable subject but the size of the article warrants splitting. As the largest article on Wikipedia, WP:ARTICLESIZE and WP:SPLITLIST most definitely apply. Onetwothreeip (talk) 11:29, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Firstly, this is not the venue for warranting a split, but a proposal for deleting the whole page. Secondly, it is the second largest, not the largest. Thirdly, there will always be a "largest article on Wikipedia" for a reason of logic, so that alone is not a reason in itself for warranting a split. Other reasons were already discussed at the proper talk page and no consensus was reached for splitting, much less deletion. This is not the procedure for obtaining a consensus for split, and both of you can't just pretend turning this into a "split it or delete it" issue. Impru20talk 11:37, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- It was the largest until a few hours ago, only because another article has increased in size. Being the largest on Wikipedia isn't the reason, but that there will always be a largest article only matters when there is no such thing as an article that is too large.

- Then that is an issue that is to be discussed at the proper talk page, where we've already seen that there is no consensus for it at its current form. Other proposals could have been raised and/or discussed that could gather a prospective consensus, or further input could have been requested if needed to sort out the issue. None of this was attempted. Instead, what we see is an attempt to circumvent the normal consensus-building procedures by bringing this to AfD just because the argument for splitting didn't win through the discussion. This is an outright violation of the spirit of both ARTICLESIZE and SPLITLIST, to seek a large article deletion as a whole just because some people do not like it being large.

- Then you've surely failed to acknowledge the point of my comments altogether. I have repeteadly stated that this is not a valid rationale for deletion. You can't just pretend deleting an article just because you can't get a consensus for its splitting in the article's talk page. Just like you attempt to reply to comments from others with an effortless "you have utterly failed to address the rationale for deletion", I'll rather point to you that it is you who have failed to propose a valid rationale for deletion. It is not me who filed this AfD, but you. It is not up to me to convince others to keep the article, but for you to provide convincing arguments for deletion. So far, you are only arguing it should be deleted because of its size, proposing instead a solution (i.e. "upload it to Commons as spreadsheet-compatible CSV data") that you did not even care proposing at the talk page discussion (in fact, you have been mostly absent from that discussion in the first place). So far, you have only shown a willingness to game the system by circumventing consensus and to try to get rid of this article with as little effort from your part as possible.

- It was the largest until a few hours ago, only because another article has increased in size. Being the largest on Wikipedia isn't the reason, but that there will always be a largest article only matters when there is no such thing as an article that is too large. Onetwothreeip (talk) 11:43, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Firstly, this is not the venue for warranting a split, but a proposal for deleting the whole page. Secondly, it is the second largest, not the largest. Thirdly, there will always be a "largest article on Wikipedia" for a reason of logic, so that alone is not a reason in itself for warranting a split. Other reasons were already discussed at the proper talk page and no consensus was reached for splitting, much less deletion. This is not the procedure for obtaining a consensus for split, and both of you can't just pretend turning this into a "split it or delete it" issue. Impru20talk 11:37, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- @Onetwothreeip: "Split" is not a valid reply to the AfD request, and I find it misleading.

- Delete Obviously fails WP:NOTSTATS and the data is ephemeral too – we don't need polls and projections once we have the actual result. Andrew D. (talk) 17:33, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- @Andrew Davidson: You do acknowledge that WP:NOTSTATS, point 3 actually contradicts your own claim by bringing Nationwide opinion polling for the United States presidential election, 2012 (i.e. opinion polling articles) as a valid example of stand-alone lists, as well as clearly stating that
statistics should be placed in tables to enhance readability, and articles with statistics should include explanatory text providing context. Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article
(i.e. exactly what is done with opinion polling articles), right? Further, the argument you propose is surprising: no one would argue that List of World War II battles should be removed just because such data is "ephemeral" and since we know the actual result of the war. Impru20talk 17:53, 16 September 2019 (UTC)- Impru20 makes a interesting point. The 2012 US example is clearly a statistical appendix without any significant narrative or analysis, contrary to the text of WP:NOT and yet there it is. This demonstrates the incoherence of WP:NOT, to my mind – it has long seemed to be a compilation of arbitrary likes and dislikes. We'll have to look at that history of that section to understand how this happened but I'm supposing that the original prohibition of WP:RAWDATA has been nobbled by a psephology wonk. From a policy POV, I'll have to switch to WP:OR. If you're compiling raw data and then using that as the statistical support for separate summary analysis then that's too much like original research. Andrew D. (talk) 19:12, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Much to the contrary, actually. WP:NOTSTATS does not require "narrative or analysis" (as you say) but
context or explanation
, which is not the same. Namely, thatstatistics should be placed in tables to enhance readability, and articles with statistics should include explanatory text providing context. Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article
. This is very clear and is not subject to other interpretations, and is exactly what is done for most (if not all) opinion polling articles (including the 2012 US one). I should remind that it was you who brought NOTSTATS into the fray, so I will not make any assumptions on whether the actual writing of the policy is appropiate or not because this is not the venue for it. It should be noted that, as of currently, a massive amount of articles are abiding to that policy, so if you consider that the writing of it is an issue, it wouldn't be one of this article in particular but one affecting many others. The solution for that would be to achieve a consensus for reforming the policy, not for us to cherry-pick in a whimp (and against current policy) which articles should be deleted and which ones not. Impru20talk 19:43, 16 September 2019 (UTC)- I've had a look round and see that there quite a few of these pages. The one of local interest to me is Opinion polling for the next United Kingdom general election. Looking at this, it appears that:

- @Andrew Davidson: You do acknowledge that WP:NOTSTATS, point 3 actually contradicts your own claim by bringing Nationwide opinion polling for the United States presidential election, 2012 (i.e. opinion polling articles) as a valid example of stand-alone lists, as well as clearly stating that
- These polling pages are built up ahead of each election. In the current UK case, we don't know when that will be as a date has not been agreed yet.
- The polling data is tabled and graphed to produce regression lines.
- Political events such as leadership changes are added to the tables to suggest cause and effect and help readers "look for patterns".
- There are disputes about which polls will or won't be accepted as "reliable"
- I'm most familiar with this sort of political analysis on sites like politicalbetting, where partisans and punters engage in speculation and banter about the state of the parties and politics. I can see that it's quite fascinating for such people to track the polls, like following a horse race or the stockmarket, but it seems contrary to the spirit of WP:CRYSTAL and WP:SYN. One big issue is the supposition that the polls are reliable sources when, as many results show, they are not. Andrew D. (talk) 21:36, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, there are a lot of them because they have never been shown to cause any of the issues that now, as of suddenly, are seemingly presented.
- This is not relevant, because the pages themselves do not make any assumption on when the next election will be held. Note that WP:CRYSTAL or WP:NCGAL, for example, do make provisions for next election articles to be allowed under some specific set of guidelines, all of which these articles do comply with.
- Yes, this is a mere WP:CALC procedure, and this is allowed and does not constitute WP:OR.
- I fully agree with you on this. I'm entirely against adding events to the tables because they may pose a NPOV and SYNTH violation, and have in fact fought throughout time to get rid of such events from these tables. However, while most opinion polling articles throughout Wikipedia do not include events, for some ones (such as Opinion polling for the next United Kingdom general election) a strong local consensus in favour of adding some events has developed.
- Also agree with you on this, but I would like to note that, just as events, this only happens for some articles, not for most of them, because of local consensus (yes, the UK one is a very "special" one on these things...).
- I don't think this goes neither against CRYSTAL nor SYNTH because, at large, these articles do not pretend to forecast the future or to interpret opinion polls (and when they do, such as by adding event rows or interpreting which polls are worth it and which ones aren't, it should be prevented), just to keep track of them and list them as they are very notable and encyclopedic-worthy ahead of the scheduled next election. Impru20talk 04:56, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Size isn't a make-or-break issue, and as argued just above, this is in keeping with WP:NOTSTATS, point 3. Polling data is of enduring historical interest even after elections, such as in historical analysis about whether the polls were reliable. XOR'easter (talk) 17:59, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
"Size isn't a make-or-break issue"

I can understand Italian interest in this but not the other languages. Is someone being paid by the kilo for this stuff or what? Andrew D. (talk) 19:28, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Wikipedia is not a site for data aggregation and drawing WP:OR conclusions from that data. Gamaliel (talk) 20:19, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- This is explicitly allowed under WP:NOTSTATS, point 3 + no WP:OR conclusions are presented, so both of your premises for deletion are incorrect. Impru20talk 20:26, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- I have no idea why these articles exist but there are a lot of them. Category:Opinion_polling_by_country Dream Focus 21:40, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. The article does not contain only original sources, actually the majority of them are taken from other polls aggregators who list the polls taken from the pollsters. The fact that it is too long does not have anything to do with the deletion, probably only with a possible split or reduction. The article does not meet the deletion criteria, as per point 3 of WP:NOTSTATS, where the possibility of having aggregation of polls is specifically addressed. I agree with User:Impru20 that this AfD has been filed only in order to deal with the length of the article, which is ridiculous. Also, but this is not the main point, because my arguments apply also to this single article, it should be kept in count that there are infinitely many more articles like this one, and deleting just this one would just be plain disruption (see for example in Template:Opinion polling for Italian elections). --Ritchie92 (talk) 08:07, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Comment This should be a more general discussion about opinion polls article, if the OP really means what they wrote in the AfD request. If this one has been filed for deletion, why not the others? This is not WP:OTHERSTUFF, because they are invoking a WP policy, that should be applied everywhere. My point is not about the relevance of the article, i.e. I am not saying "this should be kept because it is as relevant as WP:OTHERSTUFF". I want to stress this, because I am only invoking coherence in the policy application. So there are Nationwide opinion polling for the 2016 United States presidential election, Opinion polling for the next UK general election, Opinion polling for the next Spanish general election, and so on for many more countries and other elections. Also, going further, by the OP's reasoning we should also delete all articles that list data, like List of countries by GDP per capita, and all tables in economy-specific articles, like in Economy of the European Union, or Economy of India, and so on. Even List of films with a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes is taken entirely from one original source, namely Rotten Tomatoes. --Ritchie92 (talk) 08:07, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

Whether there might be some policy-based reason to eliminate all of them is a much bigger question than a single AfD and would call for a different venue.

- Keep. One should consider that the government that ended in 2018 lasted a full five years AND, when compared to other countries, Italy has a lot of polling firms publishing their results. One needs only to look at polling results in Canada, for example. It would be totally unfair to penalize the italian polling results for only these reasons. I am open to any discussion that debates the relevance of some of the polling firms included. As already stated, the size of the article does not justify the complete deletion. I am not sure if including each year's results in its own template is an acceptable compromise.Juve2000 (talk) 23:27, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I sincerely don't see ANY difference between this article and articles regarding other opinion polls.

I am struggling to confirm his notability. I can see mirrors of our article (or bits of it) but little else. I would have thought that someone who was suffering from a degenerative eye condition and engaged with art would attract a lot of attention if their life was notable. The sources in the article are self-published or from the cult/sect/religion/whatever related to Meher Baba, the premises of which seem likely to be the collections "around the world" to which the article refers. We say that one of his writings - Journey Out of Darkness - was not published but simultaneously cite it, which is confusing although I did find what may be the thing here. There was a (now dead) link to South Carolina Commissions for the Blind but that seems to have been to verify that the SCCB exists, not that Ott was there.

- Delete. As always, people do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in future elections they have not yet won — the notability test for politicians is holding office, not just running for it, and the only other way he can qualify for an article before winning the seat is to show that he was already notable enough to have an article before he was even a candidate at all. But, naturally, that's not what this is demonstrating — this is saying and sourcing literally not a single thing about him that would have gotten him an article independently of the candidacy itself. So, as usual: no prejudice against recreation on or after October 20 if he wins the seat, but nothing here is a reason why he would already be eligible to have an article today. Bearcat (talk) 23:38, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- To be fair, it said a bit more when I nominated it, but the creator gutted it when I pointed out that most of the sources were primary or associated with the subject in some way. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:11, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- OIC. But to be honest, even the older version wasn't substantive enough to tip the scales either. You already knew that, obviously, since you were the nominator here — I'm just restating it for the benefit of any other participants. Bearcat (talk) 01:04, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

- Keep it reaches notability for WP:AUTHOR as "1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors." The citations clearly show that Elledge is widely regarded as important in both the brand/reputation management and podcasting spaces. --tbc32 (talk) 15:31, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
- He is widely regarded as important by his PR, but the evidence for anyone else agreeing is strictly limited. Guy (help!) 12:18, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- So I'm not quite sure what you mean "by his PR"? Is that because some of the claims (e.g. 2,000 media appearances, syndicated column) show up on his own site? I think part of my struggle to show notability and validity may be tied to the issue of podcasting being a legitimate news-sharing medium. For example, I cite an interview with John Lee Dumas on a few of the points made in the article. Dumas is one of the leading podcasters in the world so I viewed his interview as a significant one in lending credibility to Elledge's accomplishments. But if podcasts aren't viewed as legitimate sources for information than about half the articles I use wouldn't be valid (of course the other half are from other reputable online sources). Any advice for me here? I have this same issue on other articles I've written about influential public speakers, so I'd like to know how to better establish credibility of those who make their living through audio, not written word.tbc32 (Deletion discussion about Josh Elledge) 06:18, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Which references show that he is regarded as an important figure? If you are saying that he is because he appears in references, then that is original research or an assumption which is subjective. --CNMall41 (talk) 15:11, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Jaime Tardy, Michael Stelzner, and John Lee Dumas (three of the interviews cited in the article) are three of the biggest names in brand management and podcasting. All three brought Elledge onto their show as a "guest expert" on brand building and getting press. Maybe you can help me with this... one of the struggles I'm finding in establishing both notability and credibility for this article stem from the sources being podcast interviews. Podcast transcripts do a much better job of showing how Elledge is an important figure in this space than the shownotes that are usually published online (most transcripts aren't published). Is there a way of using/citing audio content instead of relying on shownotes? --tbc32 (talk) 07:34, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
- A few comments. First, saying these three people are the "biggest names in brand management and podcasting" is subjective (and inaccurate). I am sure people like Gary Vee would disagree (as do I). Also, what you are saying in your argument boils down to WP:OR. Because they brought him in for an interview does not mean he is highly regarded. We need a reference that says exactly that - that he is highly regarded - otherwise we are creating new statements based on our opinions. Finally, you state that "one of the struggles [you're] finding in establishing both notability and credibility for this article stem from the sources being podcast interviews." That is exactly the issue. Wikipedia relies on reliable secondary sources which there are few of that talk about the subject in enough detail to amount to WP:SIGCOV. --CNMall41 (talk) 23:25, 19 September 2019 (UTC)

This article came to my attention after I noticed several suspected WP:PAID accounts created it/worked on it. Nearly all of the references that looked like they might meet WP:RS were broken or did not mention the subject. The only one that wasn't broken, an uncredited article in India Times, looks like a press release.
