The only reason the subject is being covered is because she died as a result of injuries sustained during a match. I'm not sure if WP:BLP1E applies here, but it should; I couldn't find any coverage of her prior to her death and with a record of 2 wins 4 losses, she doesn't have any notable achievements as a boxer (fails WP:NBOX miserably). Coverage will more than likely return to the same amount it was before her death, which was nothing. 2.O.Boxing 20:23, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. When a case is handed to a coroner to investigate, https://www.delta-optimist.com/national-sports/quebec-coroner-to-probe-death-of-mexican-boxer-jeanette-zacarias-zapata-4302500 it's reasonable to expect that the inquest jury or coroner's report will make recommendations that will change the way boxing is regulated in Quebec and elsewhere, perhaps by placing greater restrictions on future matches for boxers who have been knocked out. This story says "There are calls for changes to the sport of boxing following news that 18-year-old Mexican boxer Jeanette Zacarias Zapata has died following a knockout during a match in Montreal last weekend." Eastmain (talk • contribs) 01:54, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Those sources don't show significant coverage of the subject, they're covering the event itself. Every time there's a death in boxing there's an investigation and subsequent "calls for change", which never happens, even when a coroner recommends it. Here's a few sources discussing other deaths and injuries in boxing over the years: 1, 2, 3, 4, along with many, many more, and no changes made. This is a natural reaction to a death in any contact sport. Still fails GNG and WP:NBOX. WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTMEMORIAL. – 2.O.Boxing 11:11, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: per comments above. If this causes changes to boxing, it would probably be worth mentioning on the Boxing page, but does not need it's own page just in case that happens. FiddleheadLady (talk) 18:13, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Individual schools or departments are rarely notable, and this one is no exception. I've already removed some academic spam from the article, but the sourcing reveals that this is not notable by our standards--the only secondary sourcing is from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and it's run of the mill news of the kind that a local paper would be expected to report. It does not pass the GNG. Drmies (talk) 20:42, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
A badly conceived FORK, supposedly intended to describe the pacifistic, peaceful nature of world religions, it ended as a (controversial) collection of quotes on a meme, with a positive and negative things people have said about Islam in various media outlets or its comment sections, some of which shouldn't even be used on our project. The total absence of proper academic sources gives us little hope of articles development in its current direction. ౪ Santa ౪99° 22:24, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

- Strong Delete. Ostensibly, there's no obvious unifying theme here. There's a collection of references to various uses of the phrase "religion of peace", but there's nothing to tie them all together. However, the phrase "religion of peace" is these days widely used as a reference to Islam, and is generally used sarcastically by right-wing commentators. The reference to Coulter's use of the term in the article is typical. It's hard to see how any use of "religion of peace" can ever be NPOV, and it's not obvious to me that any of the references are actually to sources that are analysing the phrase rather than engaging in biased posturing. This article strikes me as nothing more than an attempt to embed sloganising in Wikipedia. RomanSpa (talk) 22:33, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
Redirect to Islam There is only one context in which this phrase is ever used, and that is when it is used sarcastically to refer to Islam. Non-neutral redirects are explicitly permitted, so there is no real reason not to turn this into a redirect when it is probably a likely search term. Mlb96 (talk) 23:23, 14 September 2021 (UTC)- Redirect to Pacifism#Religious attitudes as a better target. Mlb96 (talk) 23:27, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - I am still around, so I will say just that I find this to be reasonable suggestion, thanx.--౪ Santa ౪99° 23:35, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to Pacifism#Religious attitudes per Mlb96. That's a lot better than using this article title for a collection of pro- and anti-Islam quotes, which is what it currently amounts to. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:49, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- I note that several major religions have both peaceful and violent teachings, traditions, or histories, and that includes Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and Judaism to name a few. Hence it is not appropriate for Wikipedia to select any one of them and designate it as the "Religion of peace". --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:33, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect per above. More the sort of actual topic the phrase suggests to people not already in on the meme/joke/secret/whatever. As is, a collection of uses and near-uses is more suited to a dictionary. InedibleHulk (talk) 09:01, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete, then redirect. The suggested target is excellent; thank you, Mlb96. But delete first, per WP:Neutrality and WP:Reliable sources, since the article shows neither. Some background: this AfD is the result of a recent discussion on the article’s talk page about the article’s subject matter and focus. The talk page shows similar discussions challenging the neutrality and content of the article, going back more than four years. The article in its current state is not about the concept of being a “religion of peace”, which is undefined. The actual article is entirely about Islam and whether it is or is not a "religion of peace." The article text consists of two dozen random quotes saying either that it is or that it isn’t. We ultimately reached consensus that the article is inherently POV and should not be included in this encyclopedia. -- MelanieN (talk) 20:09, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - In my first comment I said that Mlb96 suggestion to redirect is good, because term probably is very common search query, but I also assumed deletion is, for reasons MelanieN explained (thanks, MN!), implied.--౪ Santa ౪99° 22:06, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hey, that's my buzzword! We can share, though, no copyright claimed, reserved or permitted. I also see no problem with deleting the old target first, if fresh starts are historically cool. InedibleHulk (talk) 05:00, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

- Redirect to Islam. May be if it was put together more coherently, but at the moment its just a list of references, not really an article. I think this could also be a section on the Islam article, as the phrase is specifically associated with it (in negative and positive ways) rather than other religions. Deathlibrarian (talk) 12:22, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - I have to agree with Metropolitan90, and reiterate my support for Mlb96's proposal (redirect to Pacifism#Religious attitudes) amended by MelanieN (delete & redirect).--౪ Santa ౪99° 20:57, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. @Boleyn: Hindi Wikipedia doesn't have an article about Mohanrao Palekar. I added an English-language reference from Mint that mentions his name as if we should know who we was, but that doesn't provide details. I also added a reference about a vocalist who had been taught by Mohanrao Palekar. Finally, there's the already-existing reference "^ G. K. Nimkar: प्रथम मासिक श्राद्धदिनानिमित्त वाहिलेले परिचयपुष्प - a brief biographical sketch after the first month that might be to a book or perhaps something else, but it looks as if it might be in-depth. I think Mohanrao Palekar is an important culture figure, but I don't read Hindi, and I can't say for sure that there are multiple in-depth references out there.

- Merge to Chabad. This organization has, at best, marginally significant coverage in independent, reliable source. Most of the sources that are independent or reliable are not significant and vice-versa. Some of the significant coverage is in reliable sources that are part of the same or similar movements, making the independence criterion a bit borderline so "Merge" seems the best outcome per WP:ATD.

First discussion closed as no consensus a month ago. Most sources in the article are about his creation, Gören Duyan. These make the company notable, not him. "Kimdir?" kind of sources are dismissed on trwiki as they are mostly, regardless of the publisher, not independent (explanation).

Keep, speedy close, and trout the nominator harshly. Mary Lee's Corvette is a prominent Americana band which has received extensive critical attentionj. It's been covered at varying lengths by publications ranging from the NY Times, Washington Post, and the New Yorker in the general press to Uncut, No Depression, Billboard, and Rolling Stone in the music press. The nominator's insistence that citing favorable critical commentary is somehow "quite promotional" is ridiculous. There's a strain of institutional misogyny underlying this nomination, the notion that female performers aren't generally notable with tabloidish coverage of their romantic/sex lives, butt- and breast-baring photography and other forms of exhibitionistic behavior, and various modes of embarrassing or self-destructive public behaviour. Just making critically praised music isn't enough for a woman. And even if I'd never heard of Mary Lee Kortes before this discussion, it would be the work of thirty seconds or so to review cursory Google search results and see that sufficient coverage apparently exists to support an article. This nomination is an example of the sort of careless, destructive editing that shames Wikipedia yet somehow never seems to embarrass the editors who commit it. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006. Fight for freedom, stand with Hong Kong! (talk) 20:17, 29 August 2021 (UTC)- Comment. This band may or may not be notable based on critical attention, but none of that critical attention is properly cited in this article. In fact, none of the band members other than the leader, Mary Lee Kortes, are mentioned by name. There are no proper citations at all, just two external links, to the band website and to an Allmusic page. "Trouting" of the nominator is not appropriate because the article really does have problems that need to be addressed if the article is to be kept. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:34, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Sandstein 21:35, 14 September 2021 (UTC)- Comment. While it's unfortunate Hullaballoo Wolfowitz was not more civil in expressing his concerns, I concur with the underlying criticism of the nomination. Boleyn has been nominating dozens of articles for deletion that have been tagged for notability since 2008 and 2009 in rapid succession with not enough time between nominations to indicate time was spent researching these topics. I've been able to locate quality RS for many of them just doing a cursory WP:BEFORE search in google books and news; which indicates to me that many of these nominations were not made following the BEFORE guideline at AFD. @ Metropolitan90 Your deletion comments about the poor quality of the article are not policy based reasons for deletion because AFD is not cleanup.

Delete. The two best sources cited, The New Yorker and Billboard, do mention this band but don't support the statements they are being cited to support. The New Yorker item [1] is only two sentences long and says nothing about the band recording an EP titled Mary Lee's Corvette, in 1997, produced by Mary Lee Kortes's husband Eric Ambel, the claim it is being cited for. The Billboard item (Billboard actually mentions the band in two different articles that start on the same page, here) is being cited to support the claim that "MLC's breakthrough recording was of a live performance of the Bob Dylan album, Blood on the Tracks. The album attracted attention from many quarters, not least Dylan himself, for whom MLC later opened in New York." The big problem is that the live version of Blood on the Tracks was not recorded until 2001 and released in 2002 -- while the Billboard citation is from 1997, four or five years before the relevant events took place. That leaves only two proper references, one being a blog and the other being an article on the band's record company's own website.--Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:10, 12 September 2021 (UTC)- I am withdrawing my recommendation in light of the fact that more sources have been added to the article. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:43, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

The claim that he has played for Tunisia is false and not supported by the sources cited.

This person is only notable as a YouTuber and is not well known outside of YouTube. Subscribers do not define notability of course and therefore fails WP:GNG and WP:ENT as mostly YouTube based or related to social media with not enough significant coverage.

- Keep because the person passes WP:BIO, WP:GNG, and WP:BASIC. The nominator appears to be claiming that the article is a case of WP:BLP1E, however, according to the sources present in the article Geoff Marshall has done the tube challenge at least three different times with three different people. He's gotten news coverage for each of these events from 2004 all the way through to 2017. I would think these count as seperate events the same way that an athlete competing in multiple competitions would be considered different events. One of the BBC sources focuses on the charity, which also seems like a seperate thing. I would guess a few Google searches might yeild further events. Either way it seems like a merge discussion or some other WP:ATD should have been pursued first. TipsyElephant (talk) 12:31, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. Not sure what is going on here, you have nuked about 50 pages in relation to college soccer in the last days and since I reverted your nuke on this page you have nominated for AFD. As for notability guideline at WP:NSEASONS I would argue Penn State men's soccer falls into the "programs considered elite", They have 11 national championships and are consistently ranked in the top 25 in coaches polls. This is definitely not WP:CRYSTAL, there are not projections and only announced dates/games as well as current standings. I don't believe it is WP:TOOSOON either since the season is being played not to be played, and as stated before the article has other evidence of notability. The only thing I could see this being is WP:NOSTATS which can be edited and changed. There are tons of articles about this season already that could be added to this page. In closing, I would say do not delete it makes not sense when they could simply make the NCAA tournament and then this page fully passes WP:NSEASONS without question.

- Delete or Redirect – I'm going to steal the explanation from User:Jay eyem at the previously mentioned Ohio State AFD: "WP:TOOSOON, typically we wait to see if a team has made the NCAA Division I tournament before that presumption of notability for a college season generally kicks in under WP:NSEASONS, and I don't see anything at present indicating WP:GNG for this particular season. That may change but at present it remains too soon." That reasoning holds true here. Keskkonnakaitse (talk) 19:30, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete or Redirect - I stand by this reasoning for this article as well, but I am also fine with a redirect for now. I am unsure about the argument of this team having an "elite status", especially since I am not familiar with the level of coverage the team receives. I highly doubt it is comparable to the examples given at WP:NSEASONS. A lot of college soccer teams only receive routine coverage from local sources, which is not sufficient for an article. That's generally why we wait until teams make the NCAA Tournament because they usually receive much more significant coverage at that point. Making the tournament absolutely doesn't mean the article is without question, just that there is a stronger case for it. Note that NSEASONS says to weigh the sport itself for college sports; college soccer receives a fraction of the coverage American football does. If there is significant coverage for Penn State soccer about which I am unaware, feel free to provide examples, but I otherwise think deletion or a redirect is the right choice for now.

Also, it doesn't look like he played in the Olympics (the article is ambiguous about this), as he's not in the sourced squad list at Football at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Men's team squads#Iraq- had he played at the Olympics, that may have generated some coverage, but that isn't the case here.

The sixth tier of football in Norway isn't professional so this fails WP:NFOOTBALL by a long, long way. I can't find any coverage about him at all so WP:GNG is failed.

Non-notable internet radio station which also broadcasts on terrestrial air without a license. There's barely any source about it; none of the sources in the article even talk about the station.

AfD from 2006 closed as keep so can't be prodded. There are numerous problems, I am afraid. All references are to primary source - the soft's webpage. The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (software) supplementary essay. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus.

We already have articles for January 12 and so on. Do we want the same for other calendars (in this case, the Islamic calendar)? And if so, should it be restricted to "Islamic" events (births, deaths, ...) or should all events be recalculated to this calendar?
My first reaction would be to delete this article, but this community discussion can decide this better (and better now, when only one such article has been created, than after more work has been done). Fram (talk) 15:46, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

- Perhaps, but I can see no argument to restrict it to Arabic or Islamic facts only. We don't restrict the Gregorian calendar to Christian facts either. If this kind of articles is allowed, then it should have all important issues, but converted to the Islamic calendar. Then it can be claimed that we provide encyclopedic, neutral information to people who are more used to the islamic calendar. A parochial / religion based system of what to include and what to exclude doesn't belong on enwiki though. Fram (talk) 07:12, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- well that's my point as well. If there are "fewer Islamic events" that took place on a specific date, why don't we have such article about the month, which would enable us to list events ranging from 29 to 30 days on a single article. The dates aren't normally used outside Islamic world. ─ The Aafī (talk) 05:47, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
"If this kind of articles is allowed, then it should have all important issues, but converted to the Islamic calendar"
, well this is a nice point as well, provided that we don't end up duplicating a bulk of content. I think we should do this on the name of month only instead of the date as we don't exactly get the correct conversion date. Events in Muharram, Rajab, Shaban, Ramadan etc, and list everything major from all over.─ The Aafī (talk) 05:53, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- Delete I don't think the article in its current form is okay to be here. I'd however propose that the entries be moved to a specific list article that lists events that happened in the month of Rajab throughout the history. Well, we can have that easily, 12 lists for 12 months! We would be duplicating entries from the common Christian calendar that is generally used, in case we start making such lists for "each day" from "every calendar". ─ The Aafī (talk) 05:43, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- Weak keep; restrict to Islamic events and people. Given that religious festivals/events and historians/scholarly writers in the muslim world routinely use this calendar, its of use to both researchers and readers in this content area to have a wiki articles on the individual days of this calendar in relation to that subject specific content/cultural area. While we could feasibly allow such pages to also include material outside of that area (such as global events), that would seem to be an unnecessary WP:FORK of that material on the English language wiki where we have plenty of coverage already. The value of this material is covering the Islamic world within its own cultural frame of reference, and providing supports for those consuming reference materials written by Islamic scholars.4meter4 (talk) 16:42, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

I found this article published by PRO which is about him, however, this is not an independent source (WP:IS) as it is the organisation that he is currently in charge of that published the article. I also am of the opinion that the Illinois State Soccer Award is not enough for WP:ANYBIO. He is mentioned once in this Toronto Sun piece. Aside from that, I could find barely anything on him apart from database profile pages and being listed at the bottom of a match report as the assistant referee or referee.

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a person notable only as an as yet non-winning candidate for mayor of a city. As always, people do not get Wikipedia articles just for running as candidates in elections they have not won -- the notability test at WP:NPOL is holding a notable office, not just running for one. But there's no other strong notability claim here that would have gotten her into Wikipedia independently of a candidacy, and the referencing is a mix of primary sourcing, one local news article that just soundbites her opinions on an issue without being about her in any significant way, and a small smattering of purely local campaign coverage that is not sufficient to get her over WP:GNG all by itself. Nothing here is enough to deem her already notable today, and Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform for election candidates to republish their campaign brochures.

- Keep With 6 years as councillor of one of the biggest cities in the province, a city of over 100,000, I think she does meet NPOL given the amount of province-wide references I can find about her from 2010 to 2017 in a simple Proquest search. And that's without the recent coverage as a 2021 mayoral candidate! She's hardly a fringe candidate, finishing second with 30% of the vote in the 2013 Lethbridge municipal election. At a minimum it should be a redirect to 2021 Lethbridge municipal election. Nfitz (talk) 02:08, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- The rule for the notability of city councillors isn't "six years in a city of over 100,000 gets her in"; it's "either she served on the city council of an internationally prominent global city or bust". The rule for the notability of candidates isn't "people who finished second with 30 per cent of the vote are in and only lunatic fringe candidates are out" — it's "no non-winning candidate ever gets an article just for being a candidate at all, unless she has some other valid claim of preexisting notability for other reasons independent of an unsuccessful candidacy". And when I search her on ProQuest, I don't get GNG-building coverage about her, I just get a bunch of glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage of other things, almost entirely in the Lethbridge Herald itself with little evidence of the sort of unusually wide coverage beyond the Lethbridge area that it would take to make her more special than other Lethbridge municipal councillors. Bearcat (talk) 23:11, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
- WP:NPOL says no such thing. Please don't make up policies to support your AFD, User:Bearcat. It simply says that "Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage" are notable. Nfitz (talk) 04:06, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- I don't make stuff up. I am entirely correct about AFD's established consensus around how the notability of local political figures works: since every municipal councillor in every city always receives local press coverage in their local media, our entire consensus that not all local politicians are "inherently" notable enough for Wikipedia articles would be completely meaningless if all a municipal councillor had to do to pass the bar was show that a handful of run of the mill local coverage of local politics exists. So the notability test for a municipal councillor is not "has she gotten her name into her own city's local newspaper?", precisely because not a single city councillor in the history of city councils has ever failed to achieve that — it requires evidence that she's markedly more notable than most other city councillors, such as by getting nationalized coverage in The Globe and Mail. It requires evidence that she's a special case, not just evidence that she exists as a city councillor. Not because I said so, either, but because virtually every AFD we've ever had on a city councillor said so whether I was the nominator of it or not.
See also WP:POLOUTCOMES, which clarifies our notability standard for municipal councillors in much more detail than the generic Coles Notes version at NPOL. Bearcat (talk) 04:16, 10 September 2021 (UTC)- You mislead us by claiming that what is stated at WP:POLOUTCOMES is a rule; it is not, it's merely an essay. NPOL says significant press coverage. We've long-since supported the significant coverage can be local, not national. But wait, there is national coverage, such at this. There's even brief mentions in major non-Albertan publications like the Toronto Star! Nfitz (talk) 17:42, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- I wouldn't say it's misleading because WP:POLOUTCOMES does accurately reflect longstanding practice and consensus across hundreds if not thousands of similar AFDs, and is frequently quoted and cited in similar AFDs and is widely respected among active regular volunteers at AFD. As such, it articulates common practice at AFD and puts words to what is essentially the unofficial guide to how we have historically applied NPOL at AFD. Is it a policy or official rule, no. Is it commonly accepted practice that is typically enforced by rulings at AFD, yes.4meter4 (talk) 18:56, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- POLOUTCOMES is an accurate assessment of longstanding consensus around how the notability of politicians is actually measured in cases of debate. Again, every city councillor in every city can always show enough local press coverage to claim that they've passed NPOL #2 — but we have a longstanding consensus that we don't want to indiscriminately maintain articles about every city councillor in every city. So the notability test for a city councillor is not just "some local press coverage exists", and does require a reason why she could be considered much, much more special than most other city councillors.
Also, brief mentions don't help to build WP:GNG. She isn't the subject of that Toronto Star source, but just has her name mentioned a single time in an article that isn't about her at all, so that article does absolutely nothing whatsoever to help bolster notability.

- Keep WP:NPOL fn 8 includes
A politician who has received "significant press coverage" has been written about, in depth, independently in multiple news feature articles, by journalists
, so per the sources found by NHCLS, i.e. Bigger and more interesting: Former councillor in the running for Lethbridge's mayor (CTV Calgary, 2021, including a focus on the significance of her running to become the first woman mayor), Bridget Mearns elected: What it means for Lethbridge city council (Global News, 2014, including her political career background), ‘It was an honour’: Lethbridge councillor stepping down after two terms in office (Global News 2017, more career background), both WP:NPOL and WP:GNG/WP:BASIC appear to be met; there is also local news that includes a focus on the significance of her run to become the first female mayor (Lethbridge News, 2021). She also has coverage in her role as executive officer of BILD Lethbridge, e.g. Global News, 2019. Beccaynr (talk) 04:34, 12 September 2021 (UTC) - Delete. Fails WP:NPOL and WP:SIGCOV. Long standing consensus at AFD is that city councilors aren't notable, and that all regional/local press is considered unusable towards RS per WP:ROUTINE, WP:NOTNEWS, and WP:LOCAL because essentially press coverage of city councilors in their city/province lack's sufficient independence to establish notability. Further, most of the wider press coverage is on a failed political campaign to run as mayor of Lethbridge. Longstanding practice at AFD is that all mayoral candidates and elected mayors in most places other than cities much larger than Lethbridge (like New York City, Los Angeles, and comparable major cities of millions of people) are also not inherently notable; so even if she had won this election she would not pass under NPOL. Not seeing how a reasonable argument could be made using NPOL as a rationale given past precedent on how this guideline has historically been implemented in regards to city councilors, mayors, and candidates for mayor wikipedia wide. I don't think we should overturn precedent now.4meter4 (talk) 03:00, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The WP:LOCAL essay states,
An article about a local place or person may be created if there is enough referenced information to make it encyclopedic
and this appears to be possible here, because there is WP:SUSTAINED and in-depth coverage focused on Mearns, including from news outlets beyond the municipality where she has held political office, worked, and is now running for political office again. And to the extent it may be relevant, the recent coverage is not abouta failed political campaign to run as mayor
, because Election Day is October 18, 2021 (City of Lethbridge), and past AfD precedent has found the topic of first women mayors to be notable. Beccaynr (talk) 04:26, 13 September 2021 (UTC)- Yes, but historically we require media with national or international coverage to make a city councilor notable, not local or regional. So WP:LOCAL still applies since the sources are considered ROUTINE and trivial. As for first woman mayors, she hasn't won yet and this would still not be a reasonable rationale to keep currently per WP:CRYSTAL and WP:TOOSOON. A draftify would be reasonable under the circumstances, and providing she wins, the article could then be moved into main space after the election.4meter4 (talk) 17:59, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- But Global News is national coverage for her career as a city councilor, so it appears per this reasoning that a standalone article is currently supported, including because the coverage is specifically focused on her and her career and its significance. From my view, the additional more recent reporting helps support WP:BASIC notability as well. None of the sources in my comment appear to be WP:ROUTINE, because they cover far more than
such things as announcements [...] press conferences etc.
and instead provide an in-depth focus on Mearns. It further appears that independent and reliable sources consider her mayoral campaign sufficiently "worthy of notice" to cover in-depth with WP:SECONDARY context, so even if she does not win, these sources appear to add further support to her notability per the guidelines. Beccaynr (talk) 18:22, 13 September 2021 (UTC)- We would need three such sources of similar quality, not a single source, to justify an article. Please understand that this is the typical measuring stick applied at AFD across hundreds of similar AFD discussions on city councilors, mayors, and other politicians at the city and county/regional level for over the last 15 years. We have a higher than normal threshold because most local/regional press is discounted as too closely connected to the subject to count towards GNG/BASIC/NPOL for municipal political figures. It's very rare to find articles on city councilors or even mayors for a city the size of Lethbridge or even five times the size of Lethbridge. For the most part, we don't even have articles on city councilors for major world cities like New York or Toronto. Best.4meter4 (talk) 18:31, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- It appears there are articles for every current member of the New York City Council and Toronto City Council, and as to local journalism, I think each source should be evaluated as to whether it is WP:INDEPENDENT on its own merits, e.g. is it reprinting a press release, or uncritically reporting an announcement or speech, etc., instead of automatically dismissed. Beccaynr (talk) 20:02, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- The Global News hit is from Global's local station in Lethbridge, not from the national news division, so it does not reify into "nationalized" coverage for the purposes of making a city councillor in Lethbridge more notable than city councillors in other cities the size of Lethbridge. Just because most of the Canadian television networks publish the local coverage from their local stations on subsections of the network's common website rather than separate standalone websites for each individual station does not mean that all Canadian local television coverage automatically turns into "nationalized" coverage — the local vs. national distinction still applies and is still easily determined, you just have to look in different places to find out which type of coverage it is than you would look in the US. (For example, the author of the source is Tom Roulston, who is a local journalist at Global's local news bureau in Lethbridge and not a national reporter for Global National.)
Whether you agree with it or not, we have a longstanding consensus that city councillors in global cities like New York City and Toronto are accepted as notable precisely because of the city's global status, while city councillors in non-global cities are not notable unless they can be demonstrably shown to be special cases of significantly greater notability than other non-global city councillors. So the fact that you can find NYC or Toronto city councillors whose articles aren't citing anything more than local sourcing doesn't mean anything, because the bar for global city councillors is different from the bar for most other city councillors.

Non-notable collection of music videos. The article cites only one source that barely qualifies as significant coverage, while Faith No More's article does not even mention the collection, let alone cite sources that we can use to support it.
Finally, a WP:BEFORE search turns up some youtube videos, some fan pages, and some basic information that tells us that this thing exists, but no significant coverage.
In short, it doesn't meet WP:GNG, and as far as I can tell none of the subject-specific guidance applies. BilledMammal (talk) 10:54, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

This "article" is a thinly veiled advertisement, and the sources are standard puffery. Collaborating with notable musicians is a classic WP:NOTINHERITED for notability of this subject. It was rejected 4 times (!) at AfC, I can't honestly say I'm clear on what made the 5th version any more suitable, and this page has only become more vanispamcruftisement since. The gross overuse of quotes just shows how desperate the people who created and expanded this were for filler material to make this look like a legitimate article. Plus, the article absolutely reeks of COI editing; The Digital Sky is a music company affiliated with the subject, and I've just blocked the creator per WP:CORPNAME. Technically not eligible for G4, as tempting as it would be, so starting this discussion here. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 05:14, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

- Comment. You know it's a red flag where a Foo-ian artist does not even have an article on Foo-ian Wikipedia. I checked, he never even had one on pl wiki. At best, WP:TOOSOON, does not seem to meet WP:NARTIST. Article's author was a WP:SPA blocked for "promotional username", so some WP:COI is very likely anyway. PS. That said, the new sources linked by BSA above are not bad. This should've been deleted few years back (when it was recreated, since it was deleted before, and when recreated in 2018, the better sources BSA found, dating to 2019+, did not exist) but the subject is possibly notable now. That said, I dislike using Wikipedia for advertising, so unless someone feels like rewriting this, I am not feeling like voting keep to encourage more abuse of the project by people or their managers who just want to use us to further their career. So for now I'll abstain, even through given the sources I'd usually vote weak keep or such. Also, given the insistence on promoting this person, there is always the suspicion the 'better' sources were paid for anyway. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...

- Delete Lacks significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. The coverage that is significant is either promotional or WP:MILL or not reliable. After wading through the cruft, coverage that establishes this musician has had an impact through their own efforts on the industry or culture is distinctly missing. This article attempts to instead cobble together a chimera from this tidbit here and that interview there and this review in the other place and unlike the classical chimera which had the power of myth and magic to keep it together, this eventually falls apart. In other words, what The Blade of the Northern Lights said. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:50, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Given that the deletionists seem to be ignoring basic policies on evaluating sources for GNG, I am providing a detailed source analysis demonstrating that the subject meets criteria 1 of WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG.

- Absolutely. However, I see no valid or rationale reason to challenge them. The sources are clearly independent. They have editorial boards, by-lined authors writing musical criticism, and are not regurgitating content found elsewhere. They are clearly doing the work of music criticism in the way that an independent publication should. There is no consensus currently that these sources are unreliable (such as those catalogued at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources) and I see no valid or obvious reason to challenge them.

- Keep album reviews in many reliable sources are the solid reason I accepted this at AFC and the nominator's attempt to dismiss reliable sources secondary coverage such as Pop Matters and Tiny Mix Tapes is not credible. it is how the notability of musicians and bands are determined as per WP:NMUSIC criteria 1 particularly when interviews are discounted. The sources have been approved in discussions at Wiki Project Albums. Reliable sources coverage that is independent and secondary is not run of the mill and although the coi is unfortunate it is not a valid reason for deletion and there are no other valid reasons, so the article passes WP:GNG and should remain although it can be edited for neutrality, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:44, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- A couple random one-off reviews of completely obscure albums means nothing, other than places need to fill their pages with... pretty much anything, and wannabe musicians will do anything to push their music anywhere that will. None of these albums has any meaningful commercial success or impact, and the sorts of reviews in question are completely run of the mill; absolutely nothing remarkable about it. Unless they'd confer notability on pretty much everyone else they review, which does not appear to be the case, we're left with nothing but that. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 00:49, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Disagree, your dismissive tone has no basis in policy or guidelines. As I said album reviews in reliable sources as mentioned above plus Drowned in Sound and the Quitous are the main criteria for determining the notability of a musical act. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources. I hazard to guess that this is the most obviously notable musician article in this AfD category and of course if the albums are reviewd in five or six reliable sources they are not obscure and the reviews are not random, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:56, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

Worth noting first of all that referees are not covered by WP:NFOOTBALL so the fact that he officiated in one game in the 2004 Copa América or two games in the 2006 Copa Libertadores is not reason enough to keep the article. The coverage must satisfy WP:GNG for Brand to be kept. He is mentioned once at the bottom of El Universo and once in Balonazos.

- Strong Keep -- There has been bulk nomination of many TV series from the Philippines lately. This one was around for a very long time, but shares a name with a remake and will have few online media sources about the original, so I can see why it's hard to find contemporary news sources. That said, there are tons of results in Google Books and Google Scholar for it, which clearly indicates its notability. It is listed as the first radio soap in the Philippines: [19]. This journal article notes that it was one of the longest running radio serials in the Philippines: [20]. The 1986 book The Philippine Worldview asserts that this series was the first TV series in the Philippines to move away from episodic drama form to greater serialization: [21]. There is considerable discussion on Google Scholar of the series' popularity. And this is only searching in English. This has a very strong claim to notability and it should not be glossed over in this series of mass nominations. matt91486 (talk) 17:39, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

These unnecessary gender intersection articles duplicate Fictional detectives, but are gendered for totally unexplained reasons. They are also largely unreferenced or use poor sources.

- Nothing there suggests that a list of detectives should be separated along gender lines. Detective is not an inherently gendered occupation. Even gentleman detectives have a female equivalent of lady detectives. The sources you brought up would be a solid basis for a Gender in crime fiction article along the lines of Gender in horror films, but not related to this discussion.

Lean delete- The subject of the lists (male/female fictional detectives) are discussed, but I see no benefit in duplicating our existing list of fictional detectives by creating two lists segregated by gender. The topic does deserve to be covered, but as a prose article on gender in detective fiction, not a list - and I note that Andrew's list of coverage is dominated by articles that focus on this concept, rather than focusing on a gendered list of fictional detectives. BilledMammal (talk) 11:36, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

- See WP:OWN. Just because you do not want it to be a list does not make it so. As it is, this article is clearly a list and detective fiction is the article about the genre. There need not be two separate prose articles on detective fiction and fictional detectives.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 12:56, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

- @Zxcvbnm: Like, merging at least all blue-linked entries? Navigation is one of the three recognized main purposes of lists on Wikipedia.

- Speedy keep These lists were nominated for the gender distinction being unneccesary. This would basically apply to the Category:Fictional females and Category:Fictional males and all sub-categories and contained lists, so it is a much more general question than what we are currently discussing. I think we should not discuss that here, but ask the participants of Wikipedia:WikiProject Gender studies for their opinion. I expect they would be the experts on how it makes sense to organize such content on Wikipedia.
- I have a different set of arguments about these individual two lists, but find the other issue of higher importance. Daranios (talk) 14:36, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- "This would basically apply to the Category:Fictional females and Category:Fictional males and all sub-categories and contained lists" No, it wouldn't. That is very much not the case. For example, whether something is a god or goddess can indeed be defining, as their gender is tied to a lot of symbolic things. Similarly, whether someone is a prince or princess can be defining. There is no "detective" and "detectivess", it's just "detective". This is not a one size fits all situation and does not need a broad ruling. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 15:16, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Zxcvbnm: Ok, you are probably right that there are instances where gender is more defining than in this case. Then again, if the distinction between male and female detectives is not defining, then why are there whole books about the female detective, as listed above? But even if it were as you say, what you suggest would not apply to everything within, but still to much, if not most of what's in Category:Fictional females and Category:Fictional males. Like, as Dream Focus said, most ...by occupation categories. The ...by medium categories. And more. Or, to look at it another way, who should decide in which instances gender is defining and in which it isn't? You? The editors? Secondary sources? Would we need to find secondary sources which say exactly "gender is a defining characteristic of the detective"? Because the existence of whole books about the female detective does not seem to convince you, or does it? So, again, I don't think this should be decided here. Daranios (talk) 19:44, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, it would apply to much if not most of what's in those categories. Which were, largely, created only recently by a few users who seemed to be totally unfamiliar with defining characteristics. Just because they exist doesn't mean they are the product of long and careful consensus. This is not a massive controversy, I think most people can agree that something like "mechanic" is not an inherently gender-based job. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 21:53, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Zxcvbnm: If it affects many categories, then I feel confirmed in my concerns: it should not be decided in the form of a singular deletion discussion, but in a general discussion if and when distinctions by gender should be done and when they shouldn't. I don't see what you mean by "were, largely, created only recently by a few users who seemed to be totally unfamiliar with defining characteristics". Our list here is from 2013, Category:Fictional males is from 2009, Category:Fictional female mechanics from 2019, Category:Fictional female engineers from 2016, Category:Fictional female detectives from 2014, and Category:Fictional females by occupation from 2016. Seems a broad mixture. Daranios (talk) 19:02, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep Having just done the detectives, I'll let someone else do the supervillainesses. After all, per WP:BEFORE, it's really the nominator's job to look for sources and they certainly exist. I especially like "“People keep giving me rings, but I think a small death ray might be more practical”: Women and Mad Science in Steampunk Comics".
- The real issue here is that this is the fourth nomination and so WP:DELAFD applies, "It can be disruptive to repeatedly nominate a page in the hope of getting a different outcome." Andrew🐉(talk) 09:47, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- The last nomination was 7 years ago, an amount of time during which a newborn can become a walking, talking child. To call that "repeatedly nominating a page", stretches the limits of absurdity and common sense.
- The issue here is whether a list is merited, instead of an article about gender in superhero comics. This article, a mere regurgitation of names, explains nothing about the importance of women in comics. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:48, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep As I said the last time this went to AFD, this is a valid navigational list, every thing listed having their own article where they are called super villains and their gender mentioned as female. Category:Female supervillains exist, and shows there are categories for three different major comic book companies for their female supervillains plus additional entries that don't fit in any sub-categories. The categories mentioned by the nominator, group things based on which super hero or team they are the enemy of, which is actually wrong since the villains often target more than one hero. Those two categories only list lists showing information about various enemies. As for why divide them by gender in a list, well, we do that with female actors, athletes, politicians, and everything else. Enter in Category:Female into a search and see how many suggestions come up. Dream Focus 11:21, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Likewise, I would approve of a more draconian clean up, such as to remove all unsourced, non-article entries, and then do a quick check to ensure that the criteria is in the lede of the rest (ie. female and villain) so it isn't bloated with say, 'superheroines who went rogue for one issue because of mind control'.

However, coverage of some of its activities can be found, and I believe they are sufficient to meet WP:NCORP. For instance, WWF Collaberation, anti slavery activities, acquisition by Becker.

- thats exactly the point--we keep spouses of head sof state, and sometimes their children; we sometimes will keep the spouse of someone in the office of vice president if there's sufficient well-sourced material. We don't keep other relatives on the basis of their relationship, unless there's independent notability , as is possible with the parents of very famous people. For example, we could probably justify it for the parents of Kwame Nkrumah, but we haven't even made redirects from them. I don't think the current vice-president of this article is even remotely in the same category. DGG ( talk ) 19:01, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep: I also think this article should be kept because she is notable in Ghana to have received a wide coverage before and after her death. She was known to be among the first Northern region females to have gone to school. She was also known when the vice president wished her a 'happy birthday'. So kindly keep the article.

- Keep A quick Google Search does reveal hits from major news agencies in Ghana.

- Comment There is no in-depth and independent coverage about her. All the sources about her are associated with Mahamudu Bawumia. I don't think so it makes her notable for being a mother of Mahamudu Bawumia. Mehmood.Husain (talk) 23:17, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment "to be among the first Northern region females to have gone to school." is not notability . One could argue that if she were the very first, and it could be proven, there might be, but "one of the first" to do anything at all is always meaningless puffery. That the mother of someone is notable because their son wished them happy birthday is utterly ludicrous. People dying does not make them notable if they weren't notable previously. People who have for any reason just become notable in the last few days are unlike to remain a subject of encyclopedic interest. If there were any doubt that she might possibly be notable , thearguments above in this afd discussion prove otherwise. DGG ( talk ) 04:17, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete I looked through the sources and did a Gsearch but everything is about the funeral itself and not the subject of the article. No mentions of any achievements, even small local-interest ones.

- Keep. Contrary to the nomination, this particular crime has received national and international coverage. International coverage includes the Slovenian Dnevnik, Mexican Milenio, French 45secondes, Peruvian El Comercio, The South African, British The Times. Ignoring Florida media, we have many US based publications covering this, include: NY Daily News on the application of a "stand your ground" defense here, Daily Beast, CNN on the murderer questioning his surviving son at trial, Washington Post on the adoption of the child, and People magazine with a similar profile. From a perusal of the coverage, the trial itself was highly publicized and not routine.--Eostrix (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 07:52, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- I feel like national coverage is automatic with Florida due to Florida Sunshine Law (and no, not because of Florida Man).

- The relevant policy is WP:GNG and WP:NEVENT. Coverage here meets WP:GEOSCOPE (heck, covered in Slovenia), WP:INDEPTH, WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE, and WP:DIVERSE. Most domestic murders are not notable, and most do not receive significant coverage. This particular case, perhaps due to the televised trial, sordid details, and self-representation by the perpetrator (who actually questioned his son, whom he stabbed) received an extremely high level of coverage as evidence by any search for "Ronnie Oneal".--Eostrix (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 06:46, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- Delete Per The Grid's comment; we have a lot of Florida murder stories because of their sunshine law, and it takes little to no time to translate a story from there to fill column inches or a 'trending story' feature, and it's highly doubtful that Dnevnik, The South African or Milenio really added much more from the wires they got them from. Just because a story appears in an international publication doesn't indicate its true notability unless it's full and sustained coverage. Nate • (chatter) 18:46, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- This IS sustained coverage. From the news sources given in the article it actually got more coverage in 2021 than in 2018, and the news articles offer in-depth information about the trial and aftermath; for example, the CNN article mentioning that Ronnie IV had to cross-examine his own son, and Tampa Bay Times and NY Daily News mentioning the use of the stand-your-ground rule. --Coolperson177 (talk) 03:17, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep I think we can say that this case has seen enough attention to be classified as notable. It's ridiculous how small crimes in the United Kingdom always even if it doesn't get to much attention gets to stay but ones in the United States always has one person trying to erase it. This case has enough information and it should be deemed worthy to stay as a wiki page. – 11S117 (talk) 18:09, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Oh boy. In the process of cleaning up Template:Astronomical locations in fiction, this probably is the most bizarre entry. The concept is super niche and not mentioned in any reliable source; this (tiny) list that fails WP:GNG/WP:LIST is also very poorly referenced (to primary sources anyway). Needles to say, the term Trans-Neptunian not only does not have its own entry in any reference work on SF (see below for what I reviewed), but is not even mentioned in any of them, outside of a single passing sentence in "Science fact and science fiction an encyclopedia by Brian Stableford"...

Delete. A part of me wishes otherwise, but the list doesn't meet any of our criteria to exist. Further, it doesn't make sense; if we want an article to cover fictional sub-planetary objects within the Sol system, there is no reason why we should restrict ourselves to trans-neptunian ones, as it is unlikely the list would be sufficiently large to need a split. The article also seems to entirely consist of OR, with this including both the elements on the list, and the information provided with them. With all that said, I will note that I don't consider the search for the name to be conclusive; there is no reason why coverage of this topic or a sufficiently similar one has to be under that name, and I would actually be surprised if it was. BilledMammal (talk) 08:46, 14 September 2021 (UTC)- Redirect: I don't believe the information is appropriately sourced for a merger, but no reason why we can't redirect this to Solar System in fiction.

- Keep/merge The nomination tells plainly that it's engaged in cleanup but, per WP:NOTCLEANUP, this not the purpose of AfD. In constructing the template in question, the earlier editors obviously decided on a scheme of dividing up the solar system, working outwards from the sun. This naturally then takes you to Pluto, the Kuiper belt, Oort cloud and the other outer reaches. If the nominator has some better scheme then they should present it fully, rather than selectively trying to knock out pieces of the whole. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:01, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Merge to Solar System in fiction as a WP:ATD. This can easily fit within that purview.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:51, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. Andrew Davidson makes a good point. Running dragnets through the Wikipedia looking for perfectly good articles based on careful, organized, and dedicated volunteer work to delete is probably not a good way for this project to move forward. It's not really what AfD is supposed to be used for. It's discouraging to editors who create articles like this, also. Not a super great approach to making encyclopedias, in my opinion.
- On the merits, I do note that we have an article Trans-Neptunian object. It is a wide-spread and notable concept in planetary astronomy. Googling "trans-neptunian" brings about 316,00 results. There are scads of scientific books with "Trans-Neptunian" in their title. "trans neptunian objects" brings up 10,400 results in google scholar.
- And naturally it's used a lot in science fiction too. We would expect that, but we know it for sure because somebody did the work of making this article and collecting some instances of this. Thank you, article creators, good work! It's not the biggest article, but it's big enough. It's not much ref'd, but after all the works themselves are the refs, I think that's pretty much how it works for summaries of films and books and all.
- Taken together, this indicates that of course the subject is notable and is worthwhile having an article on. The rest is details. We can expand the article and add more refs in the fullness of time. pictures, infoboxes, so forth. But not if the article is destroyed. Right?
- Whatever happens to this one article happens, but closer, on the meta-issue, pattern issue...there is a lot I could say, but I better not. I'll have to leave that to you, administrator. There's a lot going on here. What I did say I tried to be walk the line of being both straightforward and polite, but I guess I failed and nominator stood on his rights and asked me to refactor (his prerogative, and fine). So I have. Herostratus (talk) 04:39, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect to Trans-Neptunian object#In fiction (with a redirect hatnote to Pluto in fiction). As far as I can see, only the first two entries in the Literature section qualify as more than minor plot elements. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:26, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to "Solar System in fiction" - per BilledMammal. This topic does not appear to have gained any coverage and keep votes are neither policy-based nor particularly civil. - GizzyCatBella🍁 09:00, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Merge and Redirect as suggested by several. User:Piotrus mades a compelling and uncontested case this topic is not discussed (as a subject matter) in what one would normally consider the most reliable reference sources in this narrow field of study. That pretty much settles it. Sources may exist in literary review and popular culture media discussing (or even listing) examples of Trans-Neptunian objects or concepts in fiction. I'm largely unsympathetic to any persuasion wikipedians should make deletion decisions based on what previous template editors decided, but do agree there should be a place for sourced material. BusterD (talk) 19:12, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Light Merge to Trans-Neptunian object#In fiction - There is very little to actually merge, since the sourcing being used here is almost non-existent, and many of the examples are not really notable examples of Trans-Neptunian objects playing a substantial role in a notable piece of fiction. But, as Clarityfiend stated, a couple of the entries do seem to be major enough instances to mention, and the main Trans-Neptunian object article makes more sense to me as the target than the more general Solar System in fiction. Regardless of which target is chosen for the Redirect/Merge, though, the fact remains that the topic in question fails WP:LISTN and should not exist as an independent list article.

After We Fell
This is either an unreleased film, or a film without Reception information. It does not satisfy film notability guidelines. A draft was submitted and declined three times in July. In September, a draft was submitted at about the same time as an article was created, so that the article cannot be moved back into draft space.
There is a schedule of release information in various countries, some prior to 6 September. However, it also states that release will be on 30 September. There are no reviews and no reception information for the film's release in other countries.
An analysis of the references shows nothing significant:
Reference Number | Reference | Comments | Independent | Significant |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Soundtracklist.com | View blocked by anti-malware filter, but would not be significant coverage anyway | N | N |
2 | Deadline.com | States that film is being released directly to streaming. | N | N |
3 | Deadline.com | States that film went into production. We knew that. | N | N |
4 | IMDB | Release schedule | N | N |
5 | Netflixlife | Release schedule | N | N |
There is nothing that constitutes independent significant coverage.
Some random editor will probably state that the film has completed production, and that films that have completed production are considered notable. This is a common but silly misreading of a badly written portion of the film notability guidelines. It reasonably divides films into three classes:
- 1. Those that have not begun production, which are not notable.
- 2. Those that have begun or completed production, but have not been released.
- 3. Those that have been released.
The guideline then goes on to say:
- Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines.
This film has not been released. There is nothing in the advance coverage to the effect that the production is notable. The version that is in article space should be deleted, and the version that is in draft space can be left in draft space until it is ready for article space.

Weak keep per StAnselm and also because this passes NCRIC as it is written. NCRIC doesn't mention first-class cricket – the qualifier is having played at the highest international or domestic level. The three games he played in are listed in the ACS guide which signifies that they were the highest domestic level at the time. I was a little doubtful about GNG on first reading but there are three sources in the article and another one StAnselm has found so it may have the necessary coverage.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 03:41, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Closing sysop please note. This relisting comment is out of order. Relisting is done impartially to stimulate discussion, not to try and influence editors one way or the other. No Great Shaker (talk) 06:40, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- @No Great Shaker: I'm sorry, but there is long-standing community de facto agreement that passing an SNG but failing GNG is not enough. Therefore, this warrants further discussion, not only because of that but because the keeps have not presented a single source to show GNG, despite their assertions that this subject is notable. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 11:31, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- No, the point of being the person to relist is to neutrally encourage more discussion. Rather than attempting to undermine people, which you're relist there clearly does. Fine to relist it, but the relisting comment is inappropriate. You could have just relisted it, and left your opinion as a regular vote/comment. Joseph2302 (talk) 12:22, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you, Joseph. Three things I'd like to say to RandomCanadian. First, you relisted despite two editors contributing to the discussion in the previous two days so, discussion active, why relist? If you want to vote delete then by all means do so in the normal way – without going out of process. Second, you claim that the keeps have not presented a single source. There are already three in the article and StAnselm has taken the trouble to find another one. The source I've given doesn't mention the player, of course, but it does confirm the matches he is associated with were top-class at the time. Third, for the benefit of everyone who reads this case, please define "arbitrary criteria" and provide examples. No Great Shaker (talk) 12:25, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment: This is one of the worst relistings I've ever seen. StAnselm (talk) 13:26, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- As the nom, I'd like to add two things:
- If there are other sources that show a GNG level of sourcing then could details be added to the article. As it's written, the article says "little is known of him personally". I don't have access to the Underdown book, so perhaps someone who does could add the detail that it has;
- WP:NCRIC was rewritten. The hyperlink from the words "highest international or domestic level" makes it perfectly clear that Brandon's cricket can not come close to meeting NCRIC - there is a definition of what we consider to the top-class. In the past it was deliberately written in order to allow a known sock master to promote their own agenda wrt 18th century cricketers, hence the proliferation of articles like this. As a result we're dependent on the GNG. Unless Underdown has a lot more (in which case the start of the sentence which references him needs to be changed, as clearly we will know a tonne more about him personally) or unless Waghorn has something other than a scorecard, I'm really not sure this comes close to GNG requirements.
- But I could be wrong. That's one reason why, after checking everything I could, I nominated the article for deletion. Perhaps requesting that people at NSPORTS take a look would be a useful next step? Blue Square Thing (talk) 14:02, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) – Blue Square Thing, I must apologise. I missed the hyperlink. So, in essence, any English cricketer before 1890 must meet GNG? Anyway, I agree that this player doesn't meet NCRIC after all and I've amended my suggestion above. It seems we have four sources but obviously the Astley-Cooper one you highlighted has minimal information and much more will be needed. I think a request to NSPORTS is a good idea. Thanks for the clarification. No Great Shaker (talk) 14:29, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
Weak deleteregardless of my feelings about the relisting, they haven't played in a notable official cricket match, which is what WP:NCRIC suggests would make them notable. As mentioned above, this was rewritten a few months ago to be more explicit about who is likely to be notable or not. And I don't think that with the sources listed, they pass WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:19, 14 September 2021 (UTC)- Comment I was involved heavily in the updating of the cricket guidelines, more specifically to judge notability on more recent 20th and 21st century players, but also on the more historic players, for whom the guidelines previously were skewed for an editor(s) who had specific interest in creating articles on players from this era. In this case we actually have more information on the man that we have on other previously players that have been discussed (such as his occupation, and that he played in Dartford and Kent in the 1750s), however coverage is still slightly limited. I'd say id lean to Merge and redirect to List of English cricketers to 1771 where he is listed, perhaps with the extra information we have found added to his section in the list. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 09:31, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect to List of English cricketers to 1771 changing my vote, since this is a valid WP:ATD. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:37, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect to List of English cricketers to 1771 per Rugbyfan22 and Joseph2302 (also a changed vote). That is the best way to deal with a case like this because it seems unlikely that anyone will be able to check the given sources for GNG strength. If more information and additional sources should be found in future, the redirect can be reversed. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:02, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

A messy, very poorly referenced page that can't decide if it is about a fictional setting or an (art)book series. The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) supplementary essay. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. All I got in my search for sources is a passing mention in a single academic article: [23] and some fansites. No redirect target I can think of, given the author (Stewart Cowley) doesn't even have a page. If someone thinks the author is notable and stubs it, this could be rescued through WP:SOFTDELETE and redirect there, with the list of books copied there, perhaps. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:12, 14 September 2021 (UTC) Update: I came to the conclusion the author is notable and stubbed an entry for him, so redirecting is an option now. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:01, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment - I believe the alternative suggested in the nomination is exactly what should happen. The subject here is both the fictional setting for a series of books and an associated RPG and the unofficial name for the book series itself. From what I can see, Cowley ever gave his series an official umbrella "franchise" name, mostly because he saw them as being loosely interconnected but not linear. That his works have been the subject of academic study and coverage like this (which arguably contributes to the notability of the subject here anyway) is enough for me to think its the author we should be covering first, rather than his work. That said, I think the subject probably just scrapes by. St★lwart111 02:48, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Stalwart111 Good find! Maybe this could be rescued after all, if we can dig up more sourcing like this. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:15, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- The other obvious one is this one. Whether you consider it coverage by the author (quoting Jonn Serrie) or coverage from Jonn Serrie himself, I think it helps to establish notability. A work important enough to have inspired the work of other notable artists (in a different field) is helpful, I think. He's not just listing a dozen different books he liked to read when he was younger; "To this day, I still use them in that fashion.". St★lwart111 03:28, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- [24] only mentions TTA twice in passing, and one of those is in the caption? It's mostly about a musician who cites TTA in passing as one of his inspirations. I am afraid that one fails WP:SIGCOV. I hope we are not running out of good sources... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:12, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, the caption isn't helpful, I don't think. It's not really a mention "in passing" though; its the only inspiration he cites and he describes its place in his creative process (then and now). That said, while it might not rise to the level of significant coverage, in and of itself, its substantiation of the idea that this is an important work among creatives in the science fiction space. It's certainly not a cut-and-dry case and I totally understand why its here. St★lwart111 06:00, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- If the article survives - or even if this is merged - I agree this (that TTA inspired this artist) is a relevant fact that can be referenced. I am just not seeing it as very useful in establishing notability. On the other hand, we started with zero good sources, you found one, so just one more that meets SIGCOV (and is independent and reliable) would meet my criteria for what is required to meet GNG...

- Comment. I've been trying to find some sources for Stewart Cowley, to see if we could rescue something here by writing a bio for him. He is notable, as he has a bio in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction. I've stubbed an entry for him. So now we have a plausible redirect/merge targets, allowing us to invoke WP:SOFTDELETE. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:00, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- I think that's a good solution. I believe TTA is just notable but keeping something of marginal notability is less preferable to retaining that content in an article about a clearly notable subject. St★lwart111 01:20, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

- Redirect - The topic currently lacks sources to meet WP:GNG. Even if there turn out to be more sources, they'd be better used in the author's article until such a time where it needs to be split out. TTN (talk)
