Non-notable semi-pro teams with no WP:GNG-satisfying independent coverage whatsoever. Searches in local newspapers such as cleveland.com in the case of the Cleveland Bucs find no mentions at all of these teams. Also nominating similar pages created by the same user:

- Redirect all to North American Floorball League, as is normally done for teams in sports leagues where individual teams aren't individually notable. - The Bushranger One ping only 22:28, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- Probably should have nominated the league first, but I have bundled the league article as well as it also attracts no independent coverage, being referenced to press releases and specialist floorball media. Kges1901 (talk) 22:40, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

- Redirect per Bushranger. This might be a case of WP:TOOSOON as these teams haven't even started playing yet. Lennart97 (talk) 22:57, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
Relisting comment: redirect which articles where? The only proposed target has been bundled into this nom

- Keep the league article, Redirect the others The league should not have been bundled into the AfD with the Teams, it's a suitable redirect target and there's no reason to delete it that has been provided. It seems to have been thrown in hastily after someone suggested retargeting there. There is ample coverage of the league to justify keeping. Not so much the teams, yet. Maybe later, not yet. Simply WP:TOOSOON. No objection to recreating team articles once further notability is established. Smartyllama (talk) 18:46, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

The result was no consensus. Minimal participation, some article improvements during the debate, and two relists makes this incredibly hard to deduce consensus. No prejudice whatsoever if anyone wishes to renominate this again in the near future. Daniel (talk) 01:28, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

- Really! I spent a lot of time on this and there are many more references than with this complete speck of an article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Security. The company has been around -- in some form -- for 30 years, has worked on modernizing monuments all over the US, and has a shared history with the professional discipline of fire engineering (a discipline that is not terribly well featured on Wikipedia I might add).
- I tried very hard to keep it very neutral in tone. The Baltimore Sun article is certainly not routine and NONE of the sources are press releases - I was diligent in my research to make sure the writing wasn't "boilerplate". I don't see what the harm is here and I would love help to make it work. :( IanCappelletti (talk) 05:17, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- Looking at the sources:
- [1] is a database profile
- [2] is routine business press
- [3] this is essentially a press release
- [4] is a statistics database
- [5] brief coverage of Hughes Associates, a precursor firm.
- [6] routine business press
- [7] press release
- [8] press release
- [9] obituary of unclear independence that makes no mention of Jensen Hughes and only brief mention of RJA, its precursor.
- [10] possibly the best publication cited, but the content is mostly a routine investment announcement
- [11] primary source
- [12] this doesn't appear to mention Jensen Hughes
- [13] doesn't appear to include any information about Jensen Hughes other than naming it as the #10 company in MEP design revenue. The source is a trade magazine that I'm not familiar with.
- [14] Listed in a top companies report of unclear reliability, but no significant coverage
- [15] another "top firms" list
- [16] not independent
- Even if we take a very charitable reading the Baltimore Sun piece, we just don't have enough independent significant coverage. signed, Rosguill talk 05:41, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

- Okay, let me explain why I put this article together to the best of my abilities in the first place: If you put in the name "Jensen Hughes" into Google Books or Google Scholar, there's HUNDREDS of references to the name because the company basically gets engineers work and assists in the publishing their work too. That seems relevant and respectable, right up Wikipedia's alley, yes? But after I kicked around for a few days and tried to figure out how to translate the sum total of these references into a Wikipedia article, I realized I am not versed enough in how to do that. So, I was hoping that if I did publish something of a stepping stone article, definitely a "stub" no question, then maybe eventually someone else who has more experience on this website -- yes, while I've had an account for years I'm not an expert by any means -- could help get across how immersed the company is in its related professional and scientific field. If you know of a way or have seen an article on here that accomplishes that kind of summarization, please please direct me to one and I will gladly try to mimic what I see. IanCappelletti (talk) 23:31, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- The issue is that we need independent sources writing thorough coverage of the company, whether that's talking about its history, analyzing its performance, etc. I have been unable to find such coverage, so the issue is less that there's some writing skill you need to learn and more that the coverage needed to write the article just isn't readily available, and may not exist at all. Looking through the search results you provided, while I see that clearly a fair amount of research has been written by people on the Jensen Hughes payroll, I don't see coverage of the company itself. signed, Rosguill talk 23:49, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

I took your keen remarks and criticism to heart and went back to my text with the express purpose of showing how there are better sources out there communicating the same facts about the subject. I know I have no right to ask but if you would be so kind as to see the major, major updates and source-replacing I made and maybe reevaluate the article as it is now, that would be so very cool.

- God as the devil (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Article is OR/SYNTH. It cites some factoids about Satan in the Jewish scriptures, belief in an inferior demiurge as found in Gnosticism and various historical Christian sects, etc, but those factoids are already covered in other articles, and their connection to the article title is quite tenuous. The phrase "God as the devil" is rarely found in the scholarly literature, and its occasional disparate uses appear to have little connection with the contents of this article.

- Delete - This seems to be a pretty clear case of WP:SYNTH. The article is taking several different topics (the concept of Satan and evil in the Old Testament, Gnostic beliefs, etc), and combining them into this singular article. Since none of the actual sources are linking these different concepts together, doing so for this article is nothing but WP:SYNTH, with a fair amount of other WP:OR as well. Rorshacma (talk) 01:29, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Merge/split: I agree this is WP:SYNTH, but the solution to this is merging, not deleting, especially as the content is well researched and referenced. This also has the advantage that it can be done by anyone without going through a deletion request. --dab (𒁳) 06:48, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

- Perhaps Rename/repurpose -- We cannot have an article with this title, which is a slander that none of the adherents of the heresies in question actually supported. The heresy asserts that God and Satan are equal. Variations of this have had various names in various places: see map in Paulicianism, Manichaeism, Bogomilism, Catharism and Waldensians. There may be scope for a general article, covering all of these, perhaps Dualist theology. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:13, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

Note: No longer unconvinced of subject's notability. My nomination for deletion is withdrawn.
I'm on the fence with this one. At first glance of sources currently cited, it seems non-notable; the Business Insider is the only one that might count. However, after a search online, I found a handful of RS's, but some don't contain WP:SIGCOV.
The potential RS's I found are listed in the first comment below for brevity. Figured I'd at least open this AfD for others to discuss and find consensus since I'm not convinced one way or the other. HiddenLemon // talk 23:13, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment – The sources I found that may or may not demonstrate notability:
- Business Insider: Currently cited in article, weak notability according to WP:RS/P
- Fox Business: Reliable for non-politics/science, brief mention but not trivially so.
- CNN Brasil: Good, notable source, includes WP:SIGCOV, but is WP:NONENG and I'm not sure if CNN's notability/reliability extends to foreign language publications like this.
- ABC News: Again, good source, but like the Fox Business source, only has brief mention (not trivially so, IMO) but includes almost exactly the same info as Fox Business.
- VentureBeat: Not the sole focus of the article, yet is more ore less significant in the context as it goes into some detail about each related business/product mentioned.
- Here's also a source assessment table if anyone wants to use it (honestly, I just wanted to try creating one to see how it looks/functions). HiddenLemon // talk 23:35, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment. I was looking for game reviews, but what I found is not impressive: Medium.com [17] and Forbes.com [18] (M is a game review, F is a news coverage we missed so far) IMHO are borderline as a lot of their content is de facto blogging, one decent review on a blog (but blogs are not RS by default). Then there's is the coverage from the cryptocurrency press, but I have had serious doubts about the reliability of those for years (walled garden of circular reporting and rewriting based on press releases and likely PR...). Hmmm. It's borderline. There's a decent amount of mentions, but mostly of low reliability. But it is diverse enough to be more than the obvious spam-delete 'two press releases and three rewrites'. I am undecided now, ping me if more arguments for or against are presented. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:48, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Soccerway has no appearances listed and FilGoal only has 2 friendly matches. He does not pass WP:NFOOTBALL on that basis as the guideline requires it to be a competitive match between two sides in fully professional leagues. There is also no indication of passing WP:GNG.

A very lengthy article but there is no evidence whatsoever of any notability. She very briefly played in the W-League and then the second tier in Sweden, none of which would give a passing of WP:NFOOTBALL anyway, and then spent the rest of her career at various amateur clubs. The two best sources, this and this, are both non-independent as they are from the website of a club that she used to play for. Ozfootball confirms that her career was very brief in the W-League. My WP:BEFORE search did not find any significant coverage. Nothing on ProQuest about the player. There is also a WP:COI concern and parts of the article have been written by someone claiming to be her sister. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 22:12, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Biography of a person notable primarily as mayor of a smallish city, not properly referenced as passing WP:NPOL #2. Mayors are not handed an automatic notability freebie just because they're minimally verifiable as having existed -- the notability test for a mayor requires the ability to write a substantive article about his political significance: specific things he did, specific effects he had on the development of the city, and on and so forth. But this features essentially none of that, and with the only sources being a blurb's worth of information in a local history book and an undergraduate history essay by a student at the local university, it doesn't cite nearly enough coverage to deem him as passing WP:GNG in lieu of having to satisfy the notability criteria for mayors.

Papaursa comments at the previous AfD still hold true: "According to the World Karate Federation database, Abdolmaleki has never competed at a WKF world or continental championship.[25] In terms of qualifying for the Tokyo Olympics, he is ranked in a tie for 351st in his division.[26] None of the references in the article nor anything I found in my search show significant independent coverage that would support a claim that WP:GNG is met.

Premature article about a radio station that was granted a license in 2020 but has not yet commenced broadcasting as of today. Simply having been given a license is not grounds for an article in and of itself — there have been many, many instances in North American broadcasting of radio stations being granted licenses by the FCC or the CRTC but then failing to actually launch within the authorized period and thus having their licenses expire, so a radio station has to actually be on the air to qualify for a Wikipedia article per WP:BCAST, not just get a license. So obviously this can be recreated if and when the station has actually launched, but as of February 1, 2021 the company still hasn't verifiably announced any launch date at all, which means it's not an appropriate article topic yet.

- I can't see why the receipt of an order in itself makes the recipient WP:NOTABLE, unless it was awarded for some action or circumstance which was notable. In this case, this particualr order seems to have been distributed mre or less wholesale in the 20th ceentury and he seems to have got it either for being rich or for having married into the Bourbon-Two Sicilies family - neither of which count as WP:NOTABLE in themselves.--Smerus (talk) 11:27, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- * I think this particular order is not an evidence of notability. We should take into account what the order is given for. Some orders are assigned automatically to nobles or royal family members and don't require any other achievements whereas others need something to actually be done. Less Unless (talk) 16:13, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Less Unless, Right, but we can't assume this is the case. Cynicism aside, most orders and such should be given for merit, that's how "it is supposed to be". And the order discussed here is described as ' the most distinguished civil award that can be granted in Spain' and the subject received 2nd class (out of 5). It seems pretty significant to me. The more I think about it the more I learn towards concluding that this order is sufficient for establishing notability (WP:ANYBIO #1: "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor" Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:43, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete: ... I'm citing User:Bearian here, on nobility and notability: There are two ways nobility or royalty can become notable in the 21st century: (a) being involved in major scandals and/or (b) being the patrons of notable philanthropies. Having one's picture taken with some people of ill repute is not enough, nor is a one-time socialite dinner. Examples of major scandals would be an sexual affair or financial corruption that gets significant coverage. Examples of patronage of charities would have to show the person is a guest of honour, or has made a significant donation of art or the equivalent of millions of dollars of donations, preferably over a number of years.

- Merge. This is an interesting and borderline case. I found a few online sources: a story about his relationship to Juan Carlos I, and more here. That relationship as cousins-in-law is described here. There's a story about what appears to be Poland-Argentina bilateral relations here. So he's basically an in-law of the current Spanish royal family, and a minor noble of the deposed Polish kingdom. I'm not sure that's enough for me. I do not see any evidence beyond the one diplomatic effort, of any independent notability. As we have done many times, I would prefer a merger and redirect in this instance to the spouse's page. I would also ask for the courtesy to be able to take the sources that we have found and add them to that merged article. Bearian (talk) 21:01, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep I think there is enough here to meet WP:GNG, .gov profile, USA Today mention, etc. Peter303x (talk) 23:48, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Can you show me the policies allowing a .gov profile and USA Today mention to fulfill the requirements of the GNG? To me this looks like a paid editing job trying to manufacture notability out of insufficient material. Literally the entirety of the USA Today "mention is: "It is the department's first effort at automating claims processing in its 80-year history, says VA chief technology officer Peter Levin. It comes as the agency struggles to cut a backlog of more than 1 million disability claims, appeals and other cases. The system "is likely to break" if nothing is done, Levin says". There is no biographical information about Levin other than his job title, and no other mention of him in the article. BD2412 T 00:34, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
- Weak delete. One well-cited paper in a high-citation field [29] is not enough for WP:PROF#C1, so we need to rely on WP:GNG instead. But the case for that also looks weak. In the as-nominated version of the article, my analysis of the sources is:
- 1. A web page listing people associated with an organization, neither independent nor reliable nor in-depth.
- 2. Press release from a school he studied at. Not independent, dubiously reliable.
- 3. Deadlink and appears to be a press release.
- 4. Deadlink, appears to be another bare listing of people associated with an organization.
- 5. Internal news story from employer, not independent.
- 6. EE Times. Good source.
- 7. Deadlink business press-release churnalism, more about company than him.
- 8. Deadlink primary record of grant funding, not in-depth coverage of him.
- 9. Deadlink executive profile, routine coverage for people in this area and therefore non-contributory towards notability.
- 10. Employer profile, non-independent.
- 11. Quoted in a news story not about him, insufficiently in-depth.
- 12. Deadlink government employee profile, dubiously reliable or in-depth (because it's a deadlink I can't tell but most sites like this just scrape government-published employee profile data rather than adding any value).
- 13. Dubiously-reliable churnalism news story that quotes him, insufficiently in-depth.
- 14. Government press release coauthored by Levin rather than being about him.
- 15. FCW "Federal 100" profile. Very little depth of coverage.
- 16. FedScoop. In-depth but is it reliable? "He told FedScoop in an exclusive interview": Interviews generally don't count towards notability.
- 17. Company main web site, not about Levin.
- 18. FedScoop again, but this time as a deadlink. Doesn't contribute any more than the first one already did.
- 19. Interviews don't generally count towards notability.
- 20. Directly labeled as a press release.
- 21. About Amida, doesn't mention Levin.
- 22. Paywalled reprint of an article by Levin, not about Levin.
- 23, 25, 26, 27, 28. More articles by Levin, not about him.
- 24. Searching for the web shows that the same text can be found on many sites in a context suggesting that the site asked Levin for a profile and this is what he provided. That is, some web site has copied the profile that Levin wrote and uses as his own, and is publishing it as if they wrote it and researched it. Not independent.
- 29. A press release that mentions Levin's name only very briefly. Neither reliable nor in-depth.
- The only source I am convinced by is the EE Times one. The rest are just puffery. And one good source is not enough for WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:24, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. According to the espncricinfo (here), Faisal made only a single first-class appearance (on 11/15/05). Moreover, and although it was created 12 years ago, the article remains a micro-stub that provides zero sourcing beyond the statistical database. Such databases are insufficient to show that a player passes WP:GNG. The nom's searches (as well as my searches) have turned up zero in the way of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. And this is someone who played in the internet era.

- Delete per nom. According to the stat database cited in the article, Ilyas made only a single first-class appearance. Moreover, the article provides zero sourcing beyond the statistical database. Such databases are insufficient to show that a player passes WP:GNG. The nom's searches (as well as my searches) have turned up zero in the way of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. A "Keep" result would merely perpetuate a micro-stub consisting of two lines of text sourced to a statistical database. My view is that deletion is the correct result; if GNG-level coverage is later found, there would be no bar to recreating the article at that time. Cbl62 (talk) 07:03, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete I thought we had gotten rid of these articles on cricket players that we known nothing about except one time they showed up for a "first class" match.

I found one review, [30], little else to suggest a pass of NBOOK, though some passing coverage ([31]) exists.

The book notes:
Although the literature on war is voluminous and diverse in subject matter—with many studies devoted to causes, campaign strategies, and economic effects—very little has been published on what can be termed the "engines of war." This information gap has been bridged significantly with the publication of the twenty-four-volume Ilustrated Encyclopedia of 20th Century Weapons and Warfare. It will be of value to multiple audiences, including historians, military history buffs, and general readers.
The scope of the volumes is enormous. Virtually every weapon used during the twentieth century is presented. Many prototype weapons and other pieces of equipment that were never used in combat, as well as some unrealized projects that influenced subsequent develops in weaponry, are included. The arrangement is alphabetical, with the exception of a special section at the close of each volume that is devoted to artillery. Individual artillery weapons of particular note (e.g., the BAT series of British antitank guns) have detailed entries in the main body of the text. The volumes are profusely illustrated with photographs, cross-sectional diagrams, and color illustrations.

- Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:
The book has received three reviews: Reference and User Services Quarterly, Booklist, and School Library Journal, so it passes Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria.A book is notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:
- The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.
- I'm reluctant to assume that the SLJ and Booklist reviews are significant reviews without the text . SLJ reviews 6,000 items a year and allots 200-250 words to a standard review (meaning: It's brief for a book review). Per our own article, Booklist reviews around 7,500 books a year, meaning that these two are only slightly more selective than Kirkus and Publisher's Weekly. While these probably technically barely meet the letter of NBOOK, if there are no other reviews it's hard for me to see this equating notability. You also misquote NBOOK. It says "A book is presumed notable". You have to consider where the reviews are coming from, how in depth the reviews are, and how indicative of notability they are (for the last two points, the answer for booklist and SLJ is "not very"). Eddie891 Talk Work 16:33, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for letting me know about Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria's revised wording as it was changed on 29 December 2020, and I was using an old copy of the text.
The Booklist review is an in-depth review. I found copies of the review through doing searches through the Google Books snippet view here and here.
The review said that Weapons and Warfare was first published in 1967 "as a consecutively published partwork issued in the United Kingdom by Phoebus". It notes that the general editor is Bernard Fitzimmons, "who has edited works on military history for Phoebus". It said that the book has three consultants: Anthony Preston (naval consultant), Bill Gunston (aviation consultant), and Ian V. Hogg (land weapons consultant), who are "established authorities and prolific writers on military affairs". It said that John Batchelor illustrated the book.
The review notes:
The review later notes:The 24 volumes include 3,000 articles, and a Classified Index is the final volume. The articles cover various types of ships, aircraft, armored fighting vehicles, small arms, and missiles as well as survey articles on artillery. Each entry begins with a definition, e.g., Italian bomber or British destroyer escort class, and concludes with technical specifications concerning size, armament, speed, crew, etc. A typical entry includes several short paragraphs on noteworthy history and particular characteristics of the weapon concerned. Entries range in length from one paragraph to five pages; they are well written, succinct, and accurate. The wide variety of well-chosen illustrations, many of which are in color and which appear on almost every page, include contemporary photographs, paintings, and diagrams. There is no bibliography, and articles are unsigned.
[additional information]
This review contains substantial background and analysis and criticism of Weapons and Warfare. I consider the reviews in Reference and User Services Quarterly and Booklist to be in-depth enough to meet the Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria criterion that "The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself."Weapons and Warfare is legibly printed in triple columns on coated paper and is side sewn. It is bound in plasticized paper-covered boards; the spine has been flattened with board stiffeners, which may cause early spine failure.
The information in this encyclopedia is reliable, the coverage is broad, the illustrations are attractive, and the indexing/reference structure is fairly adequate. Nevertheless, Weapons and Warfare is of somewhat dubious value as a as a reference tool: it is difficult to identify its potential audience. Scholars will find it too superficial; students will need to use it in conjunction with the more synoptic survey articles in general encyclopedias or textbooks; model builders may be better served by the standardized illustrations of various guide series; and general readers will require more interpretive information. The committee Recommends it for large and comprehensive collections but suggests that selectors for other collections carefully assess user needs before acquiring.

I consider 200–250 words about a book to meet the "significant coverage" requirement in Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which says:
As long as the reviews provide significant coverage of the subject and are from reputable publications, they should be sufficient to help establish notability under Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria. That the publications review thousands of books a year should not affect their ability to help establish notability. An RfC would be needed to exclude reliable and in-depth reviews from publications like Kirkus, Publisher's Weekly, School Library Journal, and Booklist from establishing notability because they review thousands of books."Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.

Fails WP:NALBUM. Created by a SPA, has been PRODded but the article creator reverted the PROD without explanation. The band do not have their own article so there is no redirect target, and there are no reliable independent sources. The last two sources are the band's website and their Spotify page – the Outburn article is an exact replica of the press release from the band's website. The New Noise Magazine article was an premiere of the album exclusively presented in collaboration with the band on the website, and is simply a link to stream the album, along with the press release again. The Frontview article just reports the premiere of the album on New Noise Magazine and replicates the press release yet again. The Moshville Times article is a primary source interview with the band on a non-RS website that doesn't mention the album at all. So everything is the same press release issued by the band, along with links to view the videos or stream the album. The only source which might be an RS is this review [36] but that's just one review, not multiple in-depth coverage, and I haven't found anything better – there are a couple of reviews on websites which definitely don't pass WP:RS [37], [38], and one from a promotion company that lists the band among their clients [39].

- Keep meets WP:NCIRC. As you know, there's been an attempt to revamp NCRIC, which failed. His debut was last week in India's top-flight T20 domestic tournament. Here's some coverage of him, which also notes he captained the U19 team too. Lots of false-positives in searches due to his more famous namesake, but at worst, there's a redirect to List of Railways cricketers, which you use as WP:ATD in most, if not all, of your !votes in similar discussions. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 12:58, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
- I also found this ("Yuvraj Singh selected in Railway Ranji team") which starts with "Yuvraj Singh, a promising cricketer from Bareilly, has been selected in the Railway Ranji cricket team..." I guess there's more coverage in Hindi than English too. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 13:12, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep for now at least. If this were a historic player who had only made one appearance and we had little or no scope for learning more about them, then I'd suggest a redirect or deletion without a problem. Current players where there is a realistic chance we find decent sourcing and who might go on to make a relatively significant number of appearances and who have played for a significant team (if this were an MCCU team, for example, I'd think differently; or maybe if this were Zimababwean or Irish player (i.e. in a less signficant league system)), I'm happy to give the benefit of the doubt to for a while. If he's not played anything further in a year or so, then, sure, redirect or delete. But I'm OK with a single appearance here. Blue Square Thing (talk) 13:02, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete, without prejudice for recreation should they meet criteria for an article in future. We don't have a crystal ball, so are unable to predict future career or coverage.

- Delete as hoax. I initially thought that this was just a nn indie film created as a hobby (so to speak) but a deeper look into what little is out there shows that this is almost certainly a hoax.
- First piece of evidence is that an IMDb profile for the director/actor brings up the claim that he won an award at the 36th PMPC Star Awards... which hasn't occurred yet. It won't be held until later this year. The editor who made the movie pages on here also made a draft article for the director where they claim that he won a FAMAS Award for 2021. Like the PMPC award, this is held at the end of the year. I don't think that they've even likely started nominating yet, to be honest. There's also the fact that this film was released in 2019 and if he was to have been nominated, both the PMPC Star Award and FAMAS would have nominated this film for last year's awards.
- Finally, when I try to pull this up on Amazon or YouTube, nothing is brought up. Not even a whisper or a hint of a film. I'm aware that search results can differ depending on the country, but YouTube is pretty good about bringing up material from all over the world. I also searched using the director's name and found nothing. Google Play also brings up nothing as well.
- This seems to make it point very strongly towards being a hoax. I'm going to tag this and the other film article accordingly. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 04:24, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

- Speedy keep. This doesn't fail either WP:INDISCRIMINATE or WP:LISTCRITERIA. Notability is blatant, the criteria for inclusion are well-defined, and it's easily reliably sourced. We don't go "oh there's hundreds of entries, we can't have a list!" as there are much longer cromulent lists out there. What this leaves is a set of arguments for deletion that are not; WP:NOTCLEANUP, WP:NEGLECT, WP:PLENTY, and WP:OUTDATED are just a start of the points relevant here. In short: there is no policy-based reason to delete this article, and no policy-based rationaile for deletion is articulated in the nomination, so therefore WP:SK1 should apply. - The Bushranger One ping only 08:13, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar." (outside numerous mentions that he founded Hamleys) It was deprodded with no meaningful rationale. I couldn't find anything else in my search to suggest he is known outside this single event (founding of a company named after his family). I couldn't find even his dates of birth or deaths, and the location of birth given in our article may be an error, although "a William Hamley", born there, was a father of a Royal Navy officer: [40]. Unless we can find better sources, I think the best non-hard deletion option that can be justified would be redirecting to Hamleys where the subject is mentioned.

- Andrew Davidson, There is one and a half-sentence dealing with the subject there: "... Cornishman William Hamley who grew up in Bodmin. William Hamley left Cornwall for London in 1760 to open his first toy shop in the High Holborn area. ." Nothing useful to improve this sub-stub to even a stub size.

- Something is not nothing. The subject is specifically commemorated by an official plaque which may be seen at London Remembers and I will take a picture myself when I'm down that way. They therefore pass WP:ANYBIO. Our policy WP:IMPERFECT specifically welcomes small, tentative starts on a topic and stubs are specifically permitted. Andrew🐉(talk) 14:15, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
- Andrew Davidson, I think we can both agree on something (which is nice), that is, it will be good to have a free picture of the plaque. And as usual, I expect we will remain divided on whether two sentences on a plaque (and nothing else in any other sources) are sufficient for notability. A redirect to the company he founded, where the name of the founder is mentioned, seems all that is sufficient in light of WP:GNG. Imperfect articles are fine - IF they can be expanded, and no sources suggesting such a possibility have been shown to exist.

- Redirect to Hamleys. Additional biographical sources with actual substance would be needed for notability warranting a separate article. A small plaque about the company does not exempt a person from needing significant coverage. Reywas92Talk 05:51, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

I believe this should be merged into the Economic policy of the Joe Biden administration page or should be draftified. The page, on its own, does not appear to be written in an encyclopedic format (a large portion of the page is a bulleted list), and the page is focused on a piece of legislation that does not yet appear to have been written nor introduced in the congress. The first source is not an RS, but instead a website dedicated to providing a "easy, convenient way to find financial advisors in your area." The other two sources appear to refer only to Biden's outline of the plan and refer to a speech that Biden gave rather than to the text of any actual document. The article needs work, and the details of the plan do not appear to be public yet. Thus, I see two options: draftify the page and work on it before republishing it, or merge it into the more general economic policy page associated with the Presidency of Joe Biden. I am looking to see what others think. Mikehawk10 (talk) 00:21, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep I disagree with your statement. Biden hasn't even proposed his $1.9 trillion stimulus package through Congress yet, and every major stimulus package that the President and Congress passes needs its own page, similar to Obama's Recovery Act and Trump's CARES Act (among others). Once it has been introduced into congressional committees, published, and reported on the news, Biden's stimulus package will get much more traction and information available. Draftifying it is a possible solution, but deletion or merging when it becomes a major topic of reporting is not. Phillip Samuel (talk) 00:27, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment - This page was both moved into draft space and tagged for an AFD discussion, apparently through a race condition (edit conflict). The AFD should be allowed to run, and moving the article to draft space is a valid conclusion of the AFD (but not the only possible conclusion). I am moving the page back into article space so that the AFD can run. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:08, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep This plan has extensive media coverage (even if it's not always called the "American Rescue Plan" in the media) and meets general notability guidelines. It's a core proposal of the Biden administration. He campaigned on it. It's the Biden equivalent of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Missvain (talk) 00:18, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

- Keep Create multiple links, so people can find this, a/k/a "Biden's Covid-19 relief package", "$1.9 trillion coronavirus relief plan", "2021 Covid relief legislation." Senate on 2/05 51-50 passed a budget resolution directly related to this. Known as "the nuclear option" it allows Democrats in the future to push through the package with only a simple majority (vs. needing to convince 10 republican senators to cross the isle.) 1.9t is a significant sum, demanding wikipedia coverage with at least some level of detail. Great article on process from here (substantial work left to do): https://www.opb.org/article/2021/02/03/budget-reconciliation-congress-senate-covid-19-relief/ Once the "budget resolution" passes in the House, expected very soon, its sausage time! No less than 11 Senate committees will start drafting the actual bill, insuring that it includes the provisions of Biden’s "more conceptual" Covid-19 package and adding all the devilish details. That process and results deserve full sunshine WikiPedia coverage.

- Keep So is the WP community in agreement then? I created the ARP page knowing it would get significant publicity for at least a year, and definitely now since it's all over the news these days. If this discussion is closed, can we remove the banner ourselves, or does an admin do that? Phillip Samuel (talk) 22:12, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
