Previously G7'd by myself in 2008, then endorsed at DRV. The revised version fixes none of the previous incarnation's problems. The sources are a completely blank AllMusic listing, the album's liner notes, Discogs (which is user-generated and not reliable), and the chart positions. I found no results besides the chart positions on World Radio History, an archive of music magazines. Newspapers.com yielded the album title solely in "new releases" columns, and ProQuest turned up nothing of note. All of the content was previously released by these acts on other albums, so it's clear this was just a budget-line compilation with no intent of being a long-term product.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
WP:TOOSOON article about an upcoming film, not yet sourced as the subject of enough reliable source coverage to exempt it from the primary notability criteria for films at WP:NFO.
As always, Wikipedia does not want to indiscriminately maintain an article about every single film project that enters the production pipeline -- we permit that for exceptionally high profile projects (Star Wars, Marvel, etc.) that get a lot of coverage during the production process, but for most films we need to wait until they've been released for the purposes of having critical attention and/or notable awards.
But the sourcing here consists of one casting announcement, one Q&A interview with the star in which he briefly namechecks this film's existence without saying anything substantive or notability-building about it except that it exists, and one primary source PDF "rumour list" of projects in the pipeline which is not a notability-supporting source at all.
Obviously no prejudice against recreation if and when it actually gets released and can start showing proper film reviews, but neither the substance nor the sourcing on offer here are already enough today. Bearcat (talk) 14:45, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:29, 6 June 2022 (UTC)- Keep I think it needs an update, rather than a delete. Here's some reviews:
- Keep – According to some sources, the film has already commenced and finished principal photography, so it meets WP:NFF. This article from August 27, 2020, which provides significant coverage, states that "Solitary releases August 31st". However, this apparently did not come into fruition, as this source from December 3, 2020 states that the film "is currently in post production." This article also provides significant coverage, in my opinion. This source provides a few paragraphs of non-interview coverage, and may not constitute significant coverage. Still, with two in-depth, independent reliable sources, the film meets the minimum requirements of WP:NFSOURCES and WP:GNG. North America1000 04:37, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

Article about a short film, not properly referenced as passing WP:NFILM. The only notability claim on offer here is that it exists, and the only source cited is a glancing namecheck of it in an article that provides a broad overview of the lineup of one film festival that it screened at -- but films aren't automatically notable enough for Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and instead require evidence of awards and/or analytical attention from film critics. But all I can find for coverage is more very brief namechecks such as this and this, providing more cursory confirmation that it exists as a short film but not really bolstering notability by having more than 50 words to say about it.
There's just nothing here that would be "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to be referenced much, much better than this. Bearcat (talk) 12:59, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Film, France, and Canada. Bearcat (talk) 12:59, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: I'm finding some bits and pieces review-wise for this. Reviews for short films aren't always the longest, especially if the film itself is pretty short. It does seem to have gotten attention when it released. It's also held in the collections of the Cinémathèque québécoise. It could probably pass on that angle, but I think that combined with the shorter reviews could justify a keep. To be honest though, it would probably be better to have an article on the creator and have this mentioned there along with his other films. There seems to be enough coverage to justify one. It's one of those moments I wish I was still with Wiki Ed since this would have definitely been an article that would've been up the alley of several classes.

- Comment That reference is absolute rank nonsense and can't be used to establish notability. They might as well be invisible they are so obscure. There is no secondary coverage and the fact they charted doesn't prove the individual is notable. There is no consensus on Wikipedia for that. There is no streaming coverage. She has about 200k followers on Youtube, but that is also well below the accepted standard on WP. It is likely a case of WP:TOOSOON scope_creepTalk 23:41, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- I don't understand the objection to Oricon charts. Oricon is listed as one of the two recommended charts for Japan at the WP:CHART guideline, along with Billboard, and for example, her third album also charted on Billboard. Dekimasuよ! 03:42, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

Weak keepKeep. There are a variety of independent sources available, she did win a fairly well-known jazz award in Japan, and this article in a major newspaper is a bit fluffy but it still seems to be the kind of thing that fulfills WP:GNG. She also passes WP:MUSICBIO as written (1, 2, 5). Dekimasuよ! 03:33, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
- It is a short interview making it primary. A very short 2 paragraph interview. That is the core of it. There is no coverage. Its all indicative of somebody very early in the career, who is currently non-notable as nobody is discussing her with the odd bit of minor coverage. scope_creepTalk 14:55, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
- It is one of Japan's four major national newspapers, 3 million copies daily, choosing to run a 5-paragraph story specifically on her. There are also stories about her in two of the other national newspapers in the last year, Asahi here, Yomiuri here. There could be older articles or an article in the Mainichi as well, but I don't think that is necessary for deciding that the article should be kept. Dekimasuよ! 04:31, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Again , they are indicative of very early career work. The first one is an interview and is quite long, and 2nd one is about her time busking. It talks about her time in high-school. Again it looks like another interview. I'm not seeing the international WP:SECONDARY coverage that would would automically make the lady notable. All I see, seems to be early career which matches WP:TOOSOON. The number of streamers she has 200k is well below the accepted consensus for a notable Youtube star. scope_creepTalk 09:51, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- I had never heard of her before this nomination, but the goalposts are moving too far here. Media attention does not need to be international to be relevant, national charts in Japan are not deprecated, and no one has implied she is notable for being on YouTube. She has multiple album releases from a major label, independent coverage in national newspapers, has won at least one national award in her genre, and has charted nationally multiple times. Thus while the nomination says she fails WP:NMUSIC, she actually passes it. Switching to keep. Dekimasuよ! 15:29, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

Reviewed under new page patrol. The title names the entire government of Hungary under the name of one individual and doubtless overlaps with other articles. The entire aticle consists of one sentence and the only reference covers his cabinet appointments. So no reference acknowledges the title of the article.

Encyloedit (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 13:29, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- When deciding what to name articles like this, we need to follow the sources. I haven't looked into what term(s) the WP:RSs generally use to describe the various governments/cabinets of Hungary, but I wouldn't be surprised if different countries have their own terms. Also, if we rename this article, we would need to do likewise for every article linked at Template:Hungarian Governments since 1990. Lastly, as I noted above, this style of naming is not unusual when compared to other European governments/cabinets. --1990'sguy (talk) 03:04, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep a legitimate list of songs recorded by a singer; more sources are needed but this doesn't undermine its notability. WP:INDISCRIMINATE is irrelevant here, and if it was, it would mean that no list of songs and films by a an artist could ever merit a WP article (and no, this isn't WP:WHATABOUTX but a general note about the extent of inclusion on WP).

- Keep. Discographies/recordings of notable musicians are encyclopedic as they are routinely published in academic reference works on musicians. The nominator's rationale that a discography is somehow excluded from encyclopedic coverage under policy at WP:NOTDIRECTORY is flawed. We include a list of novels written by novelists, a list of works by composers, a filmography of actors etc. A discography is a record of the creative output of musicians in the same way that a list of works is a record of the creative output by composers. Further, it's a reasonable content fork of the main article. This was a badly argued deletion rationale, with a potentially negative impact on wikipedia's coverage of creative professionals across the encyclopedia. 4meter4 (talk) 16:54, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep, for all the same reasons as in the other related AFDs. In addition, list inclusion criteria and sourcing are matters that can be handled just fine through the wiki process, and have nothing to do with deletion. The nom cites WP:NLIST, the pertinent part of which currently says "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources" (my emphasis). So to begin with, this particular provision is not a basis for deletion (rather, it spells out one particular circumstance that calls for non-deletion). In any event, the claim that this singer's songs, as a group, have not been covered in independent reliable sources is an extraordinary claim that would probably call for the deletion of the singer's article as well, if it were true. But judging by the sources cited there, it seems clearly to be false. -- Visviva (talk) 16:50, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Valid information and navigational list, linking to articles about her individual concern tours. Dream Focus 23:37, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- There are reliable sources covering the information, and its too much to fit in the main article, so a spin off article is justified. Category:Lists of concert tours shows a lot of these exist. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Taylor Swift live performances ended with 9 people saying Keep, so it was kept. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Charli XCX live performances (2nd nomination) was kept, and that was also in 2021. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of The Beatles concerts and others have been kept in the past. Dream Focus 18:33, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
- And like I said WP:OTHERSTUFF isn't a valid argument. Each article should be judged as its own standards. WP:NLIST clearly says the subject should receive coverage as a group/list of items. If it was about navigation, there is already a category (which is primarily what categories are for), there is also a valid list at Christina_Aguilera#Tours_and_residencies which provides navigation and swift viewing of the articles. The navigation box at each concert page allows them to be easily navigated. The Beatles have significantly more tour dates and concerts, one of Xtina's is about to be hammered because it's not even a legit tour. Average page views aren't supposed to be used as comparators or indicators of notability but you're not even comparing like for like. Since you're interested in comparisons, average page views for this article sit at 27/day versus 220/day for Taylor Swift Performances, 150/day for the Beatles, and 7/day for Charlie XCX. Given the low number of page views compared to each of these artists pages and the lack of coverage as a group/list of topics, its more likely that loopholes in WP:NLIST are used by fans of said artists to create the articles in a fancrufty way. Its interesting that when you were challenged on navigation, and the pre-existence of the information elsewhere, and guidance at WP:GNG and WP:NLIST, you fell back on WP:OTHERSTUFF and WP:VOTE - the number of people wanting to keep such articles does not add weight to a deletion discussion. It does depend on the justification given. ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 19:37, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

There are plenty of examples where experienced users have been wrongly applying and implementing policies or haven't been aware that consensus changes over time. WP:SALAT says
"When entries in a category have grown enough to warrant a fresh list-article"
- there aren't enough entries to warrant a list, especially not when there's already another residency and tour page. Everyone who argues to keep lists of tours never addresses the fact that they serve as a summary of each individual tour and navigation is primarily served by categories. Secondary navigation is provided by the list on the artist's own page. This is, once again, duplication or tripplication. ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 14:34, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

- As a winner of a National Live Music Award she has a clear pass at WP:ANYBIO CT55555 (talk) 21:28, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - per my search online and at the WP library, notability does not appear to be adequately supported by independent and reliable sources. The AU Review does not appear to be
well-known
, based on the few sources available (e.g. via ProQuest: "Babaganouj's tasty March tour", The Daily Mercury 2014, quotes the AU Review; "Pigeon apply their live punch to electronica", The Gold Coast Bulletin 2012, quotes the AU Review; "Abreact to rock with Bam", The Bendigo Advertiser, 2015, "A mystery fan nominated the band when The Au Review called for bands to support Margera on his Balls Deep in Australian tour."; "BACKSTAGE PASS TARYN LA FAUCI", NewsCorp Australia, 2015 promotional interview, the artist mentions "The single was reviewed on popular music site The AU Review and I played on the AU sessions with them"). WP:CREATIVE#3 also requires the website to bethe primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work
, and I have not found sources to support this part of the guideline, or other parts of WP:CREATIVE. WP:CREATIVE#1 does not appear supported due to the limited amount of independent and reliable secondary sources available to show she isregarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors
. Online, I found an interview on the Music Industry Inside Out website, with a summary of her resume that may not be independent content. In the WP library, there is a 2017 article in The Courier Mail announcing a festival that mentions her ("Some of Australia’s most respected music journalists will share the bill, including Iain Shedden of The Australian, Sosefina Fuamoli of the online AU Review, and Michael Dwyer of Rolling Stone Australia.") On ProQuest, I found a 2021 NewsCorp Australia press release promoting her podcast and others. The National Live Music Awards were created by the AU Review and directed by its founder, so this seems to contribute limited independent support for any notability guideline. She has also been nominated for an Australian Women in Music Award, but this does not appear to be enough for WP:ANYBIO or to compensate for the lack of support for WP:BASIC or WP:CREATIVE notability. Per The Partae interview, she is also known as "Sose Fuamoli" ("Music Journalist, Radio Host & PR extraordinaire"), but I have not found independent and reliable sources with this name.

CT55555 (talk) 20:34, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

Physicist whose publication record does not meet our typical standard for wiki-notability of scientists, and for whom there does not appear to be the kind of secondary-source coverage that would justify an article on any other grounds. Passing mentions in a couple books on esoteric topics, low citation counts, publications mostly just on the arXiv or in marginal journals (e.g., being the guest editor for a 2-article "special issue" of Entropy [3]). The article was previously deleted in 2010, and I cannot find reasons to argue that the situation has changed since then. XOR'easter (talk) 17:02, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. Still does not pass WP:PROF (or any other notability criterion), and in particular her citation record, while significantly improved from the last time around, is still not enough for #C1. The article is formatted to look like its reference is nontrivial coverage of her work in a book by someone else, but that is misleading: actually the only reference is to a chapter she herself wrote, in an edited collection of papers. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:52, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing that out. I noticed it but, per my typical disorganization, failed to mention it. XOR'easter (talk) 18:09, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. A case could be made that she might reach WP:GNG rather than WP:PROF based on non-scientific mentions... but not a good case. PianoDan (talk) 18:24, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete It looks to me like this was re-created much to soon after the first AfD. But, here we are. I didn't see enough references that could expand the article never mind footnote what little is there now. Without that it fails to establish notability. --mikeu talk 20:07, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
Keep.She has presented a unique theory (WP:FRINGE alert, although hosted by Cornell University) presented here: The Early Universe as a Quantum Growing Network and that has been discussed in a book (although she also wrote of the chapters, so the independence is utterly debatable) (The book: Physics of Emergence and Organization. (2008). Singapore: World Scientific.) That's not enough, I think. But a Google book search does bring up many hits about her theory.- For example page 194 of Lataster, R. (2018). The Case Against Theism: Why the Evidence Disproves God’s Existence. Germany: Springer International Publishing.
- So, therefore, we could consider her notable as per criterion 1 of WP:CREATIVE if felt she was widely cited. That's debatable, but I think maybe yes.
- Criterion 2 is if she is known for "originating a significant new concept, theory" and that is what clinches it for me, because my analysis is that is exactly what she has done.
- Now, I've not spent hours on this, I may have misunderstood, but that's how I see it. Thoughts? CT55555 (talk) 21:58, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- First, the "hosted by Cornell University" link you provide is to the arXiv. That does not count as Cornell giving the paper its imprimatur. All sorts of material ends up on the arXiv; preprints that have not gone through formal peer review are not reliable sources (and none of the rare exceptions where we can actually use them apply here). As to the rest, I found all of those sources. None of them amount to significant and independent coverage, and evaluating a nominally-scientific claim by the standards we apply to artistic works is even odder than comparing apples to oranges. It's easy to write a paper and have a few people chatter about it in marginal publications. Writing encyclopedia articles about fringe topics means we have to hold ourselves to a higher standard. XOR'easter (talk) 22:19, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- It's a good point, the website was funded by Cornell, the paper isn't hosted by them. I also agree that the depth of coverage is shallow. WP:CREATIVE is for a wider range of professions than artists, it's for creative professionals, authors, editors, economists, architects, so that unarguably includes non-artistic professions. Should it include scientists who develop theories? That's a fair point to debate, but not as clear cut as you've presented it. I do find that the guidelines aren't good for inventors. Maybe I should have just stuck with WP:NACADEMIC which, to pass, would need "significant impact" or "substantial impact". Is a new theory a "significant impact" I'm honestly not sure. Your feedback has shifted me somewhere between weak keep and uncertain. I'll pause for others to comment and may refine or update my analysis. CT55555 (talk) 22:42, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- When I see a paper that has attracted all of 22 citations in more than two decades, 8 of which were by the author themselves, with 2 of the remaining being actually peer-reviewed, and the longest discussion in either of them only a single sentence, I can't call that "significant impact". (The ratios are a little different for the other publications, but they all have the same problem.) Contrast with, to pick names off the top of my head, Bianca Dittrich and Renate Loll in quantum gravity, Fay Dowker in quantum gravity and the interpretation of quantum mechanics, Claudia de Rham in cosmology... I'm generally happier when articles can be fixed up and held onto, but I just don't see how that is possible in this case. XOR'easter (talk) 23:17, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- I appreciate that feedback. It suggests you have subject matter expertise? I don't, so if you do, that makes me even more likely to agree with you. What's your analysis of the various books that talk about her work? CT55555 (talk) 23:19, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- I am a physicist, with all the good and bad things that implies. Lataster's Case Against Theism is a counter-blast to William Lane Craig; setting aside any opinions about the worth of apologetics and counter-apologetics overall, the relevant point for the question at hand is that it gives Zizzi a one-sentence passing mention. The author works in a religious-studies department and has a degree in that field, so we shouldn't expect a detailed discussion of the physics. Moreover, the paper by Zizzi that he cites was published in NeuroQuantology, a "journal" that provides no meaningful peer review. (To be fair, someone who is not a specialist in physics or neuroscience may well be ignorant of its status.) None of the other Google Books hits provide more to work with. The first of them, The Archetype of the Number and its Reflections in Contemporary Cosmology, is downright crackpot, and The Science Behind the Secret is no better.

- Delete as an unencylopedic cross-categorization and a content fork of List of Egyptologists. The sources are thoroughly unconvincing. For example, a blog listing a few historical figures in the field doesn't do anything to establish notability, period. And simply because people have talked about the particular phenomenon of being a female Egyptologist doesn't make this a valid list topic. "List of {minority X} {profession Y}s" is very very rarely going to be a reasonable topic for a list, especially when "List of {profession Y}s" already exists, even if "{Minority X} in {Profession Y}" is a notable topic for an article. This is a classic case of WP:RGW, by attempting to single out a minority group from a pre-existing list for special attention. If someone really wants, they can add a "sex" column in a table at the main article, which would handle everything this list already does in one fell swoop and removes the pointless duplication of effort in maintaining both lists. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 22:28, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
- This list is about gender, not sex. And you can speculate about the reason it was created, but we should really just focus on notability and assume good faith of who ever started it. CT55555 (talk) 22:35, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
- My claim of RGW is about the article's existence and not about the motivations of whomever created it in the first place. Nitpicking over sex-vs-gender is completely beside the main point anyway. On the other hand, you've completely neglected the actual substance of my argument, namely the fact that it's not a notable cross-categorization, and that it's a fork of material already contained at the main list, for which keeping two separate lists is a bad idea. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 23:12, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
- You are correct to say that I did not address the main point you're making, because I don't think it is necessary to do so. I think all we need to do is prove that the subject is notable and I think that it doing so in such a significant way is much more important than anyone's guess as to why. I don't think it's "nitpicking" to differentiate sex from gender when the trust of your argument was linked to equity and gender. CT55555 (talk) 23:27, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Some additional digging finds this article in the Anchorage Daily News and this piece at Today.com; the show is also discussed in this 2010 book by Chris Palmer and this 2013 book by Sherry Simpson.

The article notes: "Put a TV soap star in a plastic box in the bear pen at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, tie a dummy alongside, turn loose the bears, roll video and what do you get? A whole lotta controversy. A storm of it has been building since a program called "Bear Feeding Frenzy" first appeared on the Discovery Channel. State wildlife biologists call the self-proclaimed "documentary" misleading and worse. The bear authority who worked with the filmmakers says he got snookered. And some average citizens -- taken in by the show's appearance of having been filmed in the wild -- are outraged that television producers would be teaching grizzlies to attack life-like dummies, tear into tents and break into SUVs."

The book has a section titled "Feeding Frenzy". The book notes: "In late fall of 2008, Animal Planet broadcast Bear Feeding Frenzy, Lion Feeding Frenzy, and Crocodile Feeding Frenzy. This three-part series described "experiments" with bears, lions, and crocodiles conducted the ruggedly handsome Chris Douglas ... The film crew built a five-foot cube, which they called a "predator shield," made of see-through Plexiglas with six-inch wide air holes. For dramatic scenes, Douglas climbed inside while the powerful predators came right up to the shield. Certainly, the show had an entertaining hook. The animals were just inches away from the handsome host, and they seemed powerful enough to break through the cube at any moment. ... Many scientists, including wildlife biologist Sterling Miller, were dismayed at what these shows tried to pass off as research."

The article notes: "The scenes are from Discovery’s new cable-TV series “Bear Feeding Frenzy.” And as NBC News’ Peter Alexander reported for TODAY on Tuesday, they have sent many wildlife experts and some viewers as well into a frenzy of their own. “The idea of a bear attack can be terrifying, and this show may not exactly ease those fears,” Alexander said. “It was meant to show bears in their natural environment, but experts say it misses the mark and instead reinforces the stereotype that most bears are looking to attack people.”"

- Comment While I haven't yet looked for anything regarding this subject to either vote yea or nay yet, I would like to say that you need to be more accurate in your deletion rationale's. You used quotes above to explain why someone contested your PROD when you wrote ""aired all over the world" phrasing which I could not substantiate." This is inaccurate. I looked at the Deprod comment and it was "aired internationally, deserves additional review". Which is not really peacocky. If it aired in more than one country, it is accurate to say it 'aired internationally'. And their reasoning leans more towards the fact that they believe there might be another review out that that would save the article...which is a legitimate reason for removing a PROD. Please be more accurate in your deletion rationale's...especially if you are going to quote something. DonaldD23 talk to me 17:34, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- The article is definitely peacocky and that should be fixed but, of course that's not a reason to delete it. I did not try to substantiate international airing when I DEPRODded, so TPH may have a point there. ~Kvng (talk) 17:51, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- National Geographic Global Networks indicates a global presence for different versions of National Geographic Channel so the claim that this program has aired internationally is not without merit. WP:NTV indicates that programs with national or international airing are likely to be notable which can also be read as unlikely to be unnotable, therefore my DEPROD. ~Kvng (talk) 18:00, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

- Weak delete or possibly draftify. I disagree that these are all "puff" references - what seems to be more of an issue is that the article is significantly overstated from what the references actually say (for example, the WP article says "he oversaw Comcast's acquisition of AT&T's cable television systems," but the cited reference for that statement says nothing of the kind). I say weak delete because even a quick Google search shows that he does seem to be an expert that tech media interviews somewhat frequently, which makes me think he must have done something noteworthy to establish himself as an expert, but if he has, I certainly can't find it.

Per WP:NOTNEWS, fails WP:GNG. The article was apparently created as an instance of WP:RECENTISM shortly before the results of the 2007 Venezuelan constitutional referendum. However, 15 years later, it is clear that the allegations have had not everlasting impact or coverage. Any relevant information that can be rescued is already covered in the respective section of the main article (2007 Venezuelan constitutional referendum#CIA allegations).
The article has had sourcing problems since its creation; half of its current references are dead links, and from the other half, only one source is reliable and independent, the BBC, which does not even refer to the allegations as "Operation Pliers". The closest description offered is "Mr Chavez has accused Washington of conspiring to topple his government and possibly backing plots to assassinate him. US officials have called the accusations ridiculous.
", which hardly qualifies as a passing mention. NoonIcarus (talk) 10:39, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Antoli was a non-medaling Olympic competitor, so he does not meet Wikipedia inclusion criteria. The one source here is a sports table with no actual prose on Antoli.

- Redirect per WP:PRESERVE, etc. unless other sources can be found, perhaps in Argentinian books written in Spanish. The source in the article verifies that Señor Antoli competed in the 1928 Olympics and so, failing notability, the article must be redirected. Why does the nominator need to have this spelled out to him nearly every time he nominates something for deletion that has been verified? Does he have a WP:IDHT issue? Indeed he does. He also needs to get into his head that PRESERVE is an integral part of WP:EDIT, the site's editing policy, whereas his precious SIGCOV is only a guideline. And, once again, despite all his bluster at ANI, he has been very quick today to AFD yet another article created by Lugnuts. NGS Shakin' All Over 14:23, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

- @User:Johnpacklambert Do the right thing, don't blame the hypothetical act you think some one else may take for doing the wrong thing. But, even if you redirect, are reverted, and bring the article to AfD, if you would mention redirect in the nomination, your behavior might be received as more appropriate. The more people see appropriate behavior, the less conditioned they will be to oppose your actions automatically. It is better to do something right than to do it fast.

- Comment I followed the advice above to do exactly what was advised on Frans Kuijper. Guess what, it was reverted with not even a claim as to why my deep analysis of exactly why it did not meet inclusion criteria and should be redirected had any problems at all. It basically amounted to a personalized refusal to allow this redirect because I did not bother trying to redirect any other article today.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:41, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- @John Pack Lambert, so if something doesn't work one time, you feel you have no need to ever try it again. It may have you saved time, but definitely cost all of us time. If you do the right thing, every time, then over time, people will see you cooperating and begin to respect your work and in return will cooperate with you. But it doesn't happen immediately the first time you do the right thing. Try building trust. You will not get instant results, but over time you will get better results, and more congenially. Jacona (talk) 17:07, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Based on the results of the other article, I can 100% gaurantee that if I had tried to unilaterally redirect this article exactly the same thing would have happaned as did with Frans Kuijper. That attempt to redirect was actually one done after this article, on an article with the exact same problems, the exact same lack of sourcing. There is no reason to suspect it would have turned out any diferent.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:32, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- It is not surprising that doing the right thing once, after doing the wrong thing hundreds or thousands of times, did not immediately get the desired result. If you are determined to improve your success in collaborating, you have to keep trying to collaborate, even when your first attempt fails. After people see you consistently trying to do the right thing, they will start coming around. If you immediately revert to your old ways, why should they come around?

The result was no consensus. Those arguing for deletion are right that the article is a mess. This by itself is not a strong argument for deletion and I don't think there is clear consensus for WP:TNT. Those arguing to keep the article have clearly established that self-replicating machines are notable. Whether a list of self-replicating machines in fiction is separately notable and encyclopedic is still up for debate, and those arguing for keep are fairly convincing on this point; however, there is not clear consensus here either. I do not think that relisting this will result in additional clarity, so I am closing this debate as no consensus. Malinaccier (talk) 21:15, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

- This is definitely a topic that could have a prose article, but it would need 100% rewriting to reach that point, so there is no harm in deleting the current version. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:27, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- I kind of disagree on a prose article being needed here, simply because we already have a detailed, prose article on Self-replicating machines and, as already pointed out above, as the entire concept is theoretical/speculative to begin with, any coverage of the topic with those sources would be better off being used to supplement that article, not being split off into a separate article covering most of the same information. The book linked above is an excellent source for adding to the main article, not for justifying Keeping a trivia list. There is absolutely no content currently in the article that would be appropriate to merge to the main article currently (which is why this non-notable trivia was split out from that article to begin with), and any additional sources on the topic would be better served supplementing that article, not adding on to this mess. Rorshacma (talk) 06:18, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Apart from the other references section of the main article, it is dedicated to real-world developments in self-replicating machines, so not so theoretical. It is useful to have a clear distinction between scientific developments and the significant body of notable but imagined concepts in this area. SailingInABathTub (talk) 08:57, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- I do agree there's a difference between scientific concepts and in fiction treatment, and I would not be opposed to seeing this rewritten and kept as a stand-alone article.

- Well let’s look at all three:
- WP:TNT - well WP:TNTTNT, yes the article would be better written in prose but it is far from useless. No fundamental issue with the content, that cannot be resolved by the normal editing process has been presented (such as copyright, advocacy, sockpuppetry etc).
- WP:IPC - or more reliably MOS:POPCULT clearly states that “prose is usually preferable to a list format” but does not say that a list format is unacceptable.
- WP:LISTN - Although it’s irrelevant as it passes WP:GNG, some of the reliable sources above discuss the fictional works featuring self-replicating machines as a group or a set. SailingInABathTub (talk) 00:47, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- The list format is a minor issue. Please focus on the first part of POPCULT: "Cultural references about a subject should not be included simply because they exist. Rather, all such references should be discussed in at least one reliable secondary or tertiary source which specifically links the cultural item to the subject of the article. This source should cover the subject of the article in some depth; it should not be a source that merely mentions the subject's appearance in a movie, song, television show, or other cultural item." Since this is not show, GNG is very much not met. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:43, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- That is a content issue that can be resolved through the normal editing process per WP:ATD. WP:GNG applies to the topic, not the content. SailingInABathTub (talk) 09:56, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hard to do so when 100% of the article is trivia. TNT applies. If you disagree, please quote a passage from the article that you think is salvageable. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 15:19, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete: as one of the keep !votes noted above, self-replicating machines is a notable topic. The main article has been written and referenced in a way that meets our guidelines, but this fork has not, mainly due to a lack of sources. At best, it's a WP:CONTENTFORK with no sources that verify WP:NOTABILITY of this subtopic, separate from the main topic. Shooterwalker (talk) 12:53, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per above. We have the main article for this already. This is a trivial list that does not meet standalone criteria. Axem Titanium (talk) 01:37, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
- On the fence between [Merge selectively back to self-replicating machine, where this content was spun out from] and [Weak keep]. There are enough sources that exist to justify WP:LISTN. Having too much extra content isn't a good reason for deletion -- it's a good reason for removing the extra content. The list certainly lacks good inclusion criteria, but a start would be to require every addition to cite a source independent of the work itself. Additional prose would be good, too. But as I look at the main article, I'm surprised by how little it covers "in fiction". In this case, "in fiction" isn't equivalent to some trivia section but a major aspect of the subject. I'm leaning towards the selective merge, with the idea that if sourced content grows too big in the main article, it can be spun out again -- but we need to first demonstrate that the good content is too much. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:28, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Seems obvious that it's an official national lottery provider; this isn't some random pop-up scam, but a lottery which features around 4,000 lottery terminals, sells scratch games, and has national televised coverage of its drawings going back a few decades. Needs some fill-in for sure since it's a new spin-off, but it's obvious it's notable and in no way a WP:PROMO. This would be like deleting the National Lottery (United Kingdom) or Powerball articles.

- Delete or Draftify. This is a company/organization therefore WP:NCORP guidelines apply. There are particular criteria for establishing the notability of a company. As per WP:SIRS *each* reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - the quantity of coverage is irrelevant so long as we find a minimum of two. WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria, topic fails NCORP. HighKing++ 18:36, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - Searching in Russian I see a very large number of GBooks sources that appear to be discussing the topic. Obviously I do not speak Russian so I cannot really assess how much coverage these actually give to the topic, but this website includes quotes from a few books/magazines that appear to be sigcov of the album when run through machine translation. reproduktor.net appears to be a pass for WP:NEWSORG based on the list of editors here and the "about" section here and did a full review of the album that can be seen here. Fuzz Magazine also reviewed the album and also appears to be a WP:NEWSORG pass based on this "about" page. Two instances of SIGCOV in reliable, independent sources makes this a WP:NALBUM pass, particularly as the reviews are extensive and published a long time after the album was released. FOARP (talk) 10:43, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - I researched some of these sources since Russian is my native language, and I did find some coverage of the album like the Reproduktor.net review which was mentioned above, and a mention (p. 188, which also mentions this album being recorded at SNC and also being published under a different name in 1990) in an encyclopedia of Russian rock music written by Andrey Burlaka. The Fuzz article actually describes a concert that was held in honor of the 20th anniversary of the album, but it's still a notable source that also somewhat describes the album itself.

Qualls was a candidate for US House, which is almost never enough to be notable and nothing suggests he is the extremely rare exception, and he was a candidate for the nomination for governor. The article seems to suggest he is no longer in the running for that, but he clearly has not yet won that nomination, and it is not getting that nomination that might put him over the top, but the very good coverage that some (but by no means all) candidates for governor get.

- This is probably a redirect - the details are too sketchy and there are too many possibilities for us to say for certain which Thomas Razell (or Razzell or Wrassell) he is. There are two possible targets that make sense: List of Kent county cricketers to 1842 or List of English cricketers (1787–1825). Given that he only played once for Kent, the latter might make more sense here - the biographical sketch can be longer on the former, but it's less of an obvious place to look for someone who played for Epsom as well.

It would be possible to include a little more about each entry (dates, nationalities, and specializations, within a single line of text, say) to keep this from being completely redundant with a category. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:30, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- At minimum delete all unsourced entries, as they fail WP:V. I'm not convinced that this list meets WP:LISTN either, just because these people are individually notable, does not mean that they have been discussed together as a group.

- Keep. This is a valuable list. All the entries are blue-linked. That's not to say it can't be improved. I'd like to see birth and death dates, nationality, and a brief indication of why the person is notable. For example, for the first entry one could write "Arthur Amiaud (1849–1889) French Assyriologist and philologist known for research on Babylonian and Assyrian inscriptions". For that example only, I have done that in the list. Ideally it should be done throughout, by someone expert in Assyriology (which I am not). However, that's probably not going to happen, and the linked articles provide the information needed. If commenters here think it's a good idea I may do it. Athel cb (talk) 18:41, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

- Merge, probably to Florida Trail, especially with creation of an anchor/target to which this may redirect (i.e. to Florida Trail#Flagler Trail), would be okay, or outright Keeping and developing this would probably also be okay as I tend to think sources, not yet found, will in fact exist. As the article is short now though, merging and redirecting now would be okay, allowing for recreation when an editor comes along with much more information. In the article there is statement with source that at least part of this is part of the Florida National Scenic Trail; this is not merely "local" in significance. The term National Scenic Trail redirects to the National Trail article which states that there are just 19 National Scenic Trails. These are designated by the U.S. Congress, and few in number, therefore I tend to think significant coverage will exist about all of them and they will all be individually Wikipedia-notable. (I also tend to think almost all named, verifiable hiking trails will be wikipedia-notable, as they are public attractions and covered in touristy books, etc., in spirit of essay wp:ITSAPUBLICATTRACTION to which I contributed. But this is not a minor hiking trail.) And Florida National Scenic Trail redirects to article Florida Trail, which includes in its list of components a dot point for "Little Big Econ State Forest & Flagler Trail. That dot point can be expanded with merged information including that part but not all of Flagler Trail is included in the Florida Trail, and with all the information in the current article's infobox. The Florida Trail article's list of components could well be expanded into a table with that type of infobox information, though having extra information about this one trail is okay for a while. The redirect left behind should be kept in Category:Hiking trails in Florida and perhaps others of this article's current categories. --Doncram (talk) 15:31, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- Note that search on "Flagler Trail" in "books" yields multiple trail guide books, including "The Florida Trail: The Official Hiking Guide" (2004), "Explorer's Guide 50 Hikes in Central Florida (Second Edition) (2011), "50 Hikes in Central Florida (Third Edition)" (2018), "Hiking Central Florida: A Guide to 30 Great Walking and ... " (2008), "Central Florida: Beyond the Theme Parks" (2021); "Five-Star Trails: Orlando: Your Guide to the Area's Most ... - (2012), and "Bicycling in Florida: The Cyclist's Road and Off-Road Guide" (2015), and more, which all appear to be reliable sources and to contain, in combination, substantial information which could be used to expand this article. --Doncram (talk) 15:40, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect/merge to Little Big Econ State Forest, in which part of it is located. It's a short generic local trail without wider significance. The Florida Trail is over 1,000 miles long, so a couple miles overlapping with this trail doesn't warrant a section on it there, even with welcome expansion of that article: mention at Florida_Trail#FNST_route is adequate since the Florida Trail has so many portions in so many other protected areas. I wrote the article on the National Trails System, and while each major trail is obviously quite notable, that does not extend to the many segments that overlap locally-named trails. AllTrails.com has tens of thousands of trails, and various hiking books similarly describe routes of many thousands of trails, but Wikipedia should typically mention these in an article on the recreation area in which they're located, if at all, rather than stand-alone articles unless they are longer and have much more substantive content and coverage. The book results are all brief mentions of it among many other non-notable trails. Reywas92Talk 17:00, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect/merge to either page suggested above. The main problem is the 8.2 miles comes from original research as you can see on the talk page. A database suggests 14 miles [9]. A lot of the articles for trails are connections to eventually serve as the huge trail. It's just money for ROW acquisition is done this way. – The Grid (talk) 17:23, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect/merge to Little Big Econ State Forest, but include the details on the trail and it's history.

- Keep as unprodder. We have nontrivial coverage in two national-level newspaper articles, and significant coverage with less depth in a third: One giving a paragraph-length bio of her as shortlisted for her country's "sportswoman of the year award", one leading with a photo of her and calling her a key player for the national team, and the third listing her as team captain for an Olympic qualification tournament. There is plenty of additional newspaper coverage giving individual mention of her as having scored goals (or in one case an unfortunate own-goal) in significant national-level events (and also some coverage of her in US collegiate events, where she made the all-conference first team [19]). This is GNG-level coverage, far beyond the usual footballer with only a line in a database to document their inclusion on the roster of a dubiously-significant league-level game.

- @David Eppstein, which multiple independent secondary RS go into any depth beyond the routine match coverage explicitly rejected in NSPORT? I looked at the sources in the article and all of them are exactly the kind of coverage we regularly discount in athlete AfDs per WP:NSPORT. If you think SNGs or the GNG hold any value at all in assessing what is notability-defining coverage of their subjects, you should read the relevant updated guidelines as well as prior AfDs on sportspeople to see why this coverage fails.

- Delete. This article has undergone a remarkable amount of refbombing, including with unusable-for-GNG and BLP-violating sources, apparently arising after a
WP:POINTYDYK nomination. The subject does not meet GNG SIGCOV or ANYBIO requirements unless we decide to ignore the hundreds of articles deleted on other footballers with the same or more coverage and relative achievement, and the thousands of deleted subjects who are not athletes. Currently the article consists of way too much unencyclopedic and UNDUE material on minor athletic events, and the only independent commentary on her is the opinion of ONE reporter, which fails NPOV.
- The first St Lucia Star article has a couple brief mentions of Marquis with no actual coverage of her in any detail ✘
- The second SLS article (articles by the same paper are not counted as independent, especially when they're by the same author) lists her on a roster ✘
- The first The Voice St Lucia source is also just her name in a roster list ✘
- The MNU Accent source is discounted out-of-hand as it's non-independent, but also only includes a half-sentence on Marquis ✘
- The third SLS ref (still by the same author) is a routine match report with two partial-sentence mentions ✘
- The second TVSLU ref is not independent (and is also by the same author as the first) and is just a routine match report with 1.5 sentences mentioning her ✘
- The third TVSLU ref (also by the same person, who can't seem to spell her name correctly) mentions her in a list and then again at the end of one sentence (emphasis mine: "Levern Spencer who did not make the list last year is back and is more than likely to win her 15th Sportswoman of the year title ahead of Qiana Joseph and Elisia Marquis" -- how selective is this honor if someone can win it 15 times.....) ✘
- The fourth SLS article, also covering the Sports Awards and predictably by the same reporter, has the only non-trivial coverage out of all the sources but still comprises just 5 very short basic sentences on her: this would not be enough for any other modern athlete at AfD, why would we overturn our guidelines for this case? ✘
- Carib Direct, by an anonymous contributor, has just a trivial mention of her ✘
- Terry Finisterre blog is a blog and should be removed per BLP ✘
- Fort McMurray Today article mentions her joining a college team along with another St Lucian player ✘
- SXU Cougars is non-independent routine match coverage ✘
- SXU Student Media is another non-independent routine match report ✘
- GU Jackets is a non-independent info table listing Marquis as a member of the 1st Team of a minor NAIA conference ✘
- The Vincentian doesn't mention her at all ✘
- The fourth TVSLU article is exclusively a Q&A interview with virtually zero independent info on her; such interviews are explicitly excluded by both WP:OR and WP:NSPORT ✘
- St Lucia News Online gives her a one-sentence mention (and is by the same blog author, so not independent) ✘
- <15 words of opinion on her from David Pascal of the St Lucia Star is not enough for a neutral biography. JoelleJay (talk) 02:18, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Furthermore, if the two sources people are claiming "provide SIGCOV" are just the two reports of her nomination for Sportswoman of the Year, then BLP1E is also failed. JoelleJay (talk) 02:26, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Note on "ref-bombing" – intention was not to ref-bomb, but to confirm facts using multiple sources. Obviously not all of the sources can be used to establish notability. Cielquiparle (talk) 05:12, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Also, the DYK nomination occurred after the expansion; you only have 7 days to submit, which is why I submitted it when I did. I don't submit every single article I expand or create to DYK, just the genuinely interesting ones, which also help to provide variety to the usual topics covered in DYK. I understand that if this article gets deleted, the DYK will not stand. I also think it's important to have empathy and respect for the AfD nominator, who has undertaken a very difficult and underappreciated job which is very important, as well as all the creators who have meticulously compiled a large number of article stubs under a somewhat different set of rules. We are all part of the same process, which is to ensure that Wikipedia has good, accurate, reliable content. Cielquiparle (talk) 07:05, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Ok, I can see the DYK being in good faith, I've struck that part. (The rest of this isn't necessarily a response to you, but a general comment). I really do appreciate efforts to increase representation of groups that have been historically undervalued (see my user page), but as someone highly active in athlete AfDs and notability discussions, keeping an article with this level of coverage only serves to muddy the waters when the next USL recruit with a mildly successful college career comes up at AfD. Because if being named to the 1st team in your conference, or being nominated for the equivalent of Tempe, Arizona Sportsperson of the Year (based on population), or being mentioned in a positive light by one reporter a couple times is enough for a standalone article, we're going to get tens of thousands more stubs on white male athletes for every one on an intersectional identity, which means tens of thousands more BLPs on largely private people to monitor. I'm also strongly opposed to assuming a country "needs help" getting WP coverage based only on its being obscure-to-Americans and non-majority-white. WP:BIAS is supposed to encourage editors to find notable topics from underrepresented regions -- which they normally wouldn't come across due to geography/interests -- and to recognize the potential for offline sources in places with little online presence. It's not a license to lower our standards just to get more articles on subjects from places we consider "developing world" -- that just smacks of paternalism and double standards. An island of ~180,000 people with clearly strong online journalism and two Nobel prize laureates -- the highest per capita in the world -- is hardly in need of an artificial boost, especially when a St. Lucian is already 3.5x more likely to have an article on WP than an American is. They are doing just fine producing notable people and topics relative to their population without needing to redefine GNG so one athlete can have an article. JoelleJay (talk) 17:51, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- You are the only one making arguments that this article exists for the purpose of artificially boosting underrepresented people. In fact, your argument amounts to: we should impose artificial barriers on people from regions we think are adequately represented, even people who are documented as being the best from those regions, and only provide coverage on global stars and people from the really backwards regions. It's the same all-or-nothing reasoning that blocks poor people from having any savings at all, forcing them to remain poor, because as soon as they do they stop being poor and we must take away every little bit of assistance they've been given. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:44, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- All I am advocating is using a consistent standard for what constitutes SIGCOV regardless of the subject's background. It should not make a difference whether someone is the best athlete from a city of 200k people or a country of 200k people if the depth and amount of coverage is the same -- otherwise we are introducing some kind of subjective pseudo-ANYBIO "achievement" aspect to the GNG when there specifically is none, as well as overriding explicit consensus on NSPORT subjects. Athletes with this level of sourcing are straightforward deletions, and even ones with 5x the coverage are regularly deleted -- for example, look at the sources for Danish Manzoor, Genny Rondinella, Treyten Lapcevich, Alex Cox-Ashwood (who even had the prestigious distinction of "Jimmy John's Male Athlete of the Week"), and Indrit Cullhaj. The one source on Marquis that provides anything beyond routine match details or brief mentions is the award nomination announcement -- 5 short sentences, the majority just listing where/when she played rather than actually discussing her, is not considered SIGCOV for athletes -- and therefore also fails BLP1E.
- And applying consistent standards for notability is not "removing assistance", it's ensuring we have adequate encyclopedic material for all standalone subjects. That means we don't have articles sourced to run-of-the-mill match reports, coverage of minor achievements from clubs or orgs the subject belongs to, or a single reporter's opinion on the subject.

- Keep The coverage in just the St Lucia Star & the Voice alone is sufficient to pass WP:GNG. Also, the quality of the recent improvements make this an exemplary WP:Hey. FeydHuxtable (talk)
- Keep she has significant, non-trivial coverage in multiple national newspapers. This is sufficient to pass WP:GNG, and I don't agree with the source evaluation above (from a couple of days ago) claiming that none of the sources are significant coverage. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:10, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
- Agree that the source evaluation above is farcical. I could go through the sources at David Beckham or Cristiano Ronaldo and pretend they're all "refbombing" or try to disparage them on some other tenuous basis. Bring back Daz Sampson (talk) 11:55, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per JoelleJay. None of the sources seem to be more than routine sport coverage or trivial mentions. None of the RSes go beyond a few disconnected sentences, and none that I see go into significant biographical details. We'd need to see some sort of dedicated profile for this to pass WP:GNG. And I can't find more sources that go in depth. Many of the keep votes are saying there is significant coverage, but I can't figure out which sources they're referring to. —Torchiest talkedits 14:12, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - Google sources include links to their Wikipedia article, Instagram, Spotify channel, Youtube channel, Apple music, Celebwiki, Lyrics, Facebook etc. Nothing on Wayback. Nothing on Newspapers.com. Source one in the article appears promising on its face, but clicking the link takes one to a bunch of press releases that in addition to not being independent, have nothing to do with the article subject. Other sources within the article are trivial and lack independence, such as this brief coverage merely rehashing a press release. As such, the person at centre of the article has not been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent meaning they clearly fail the first criteria for singers, with none of the subsequent criteria met either. I also note that the subject is said to be a writer of songs, I do not see any writing of notable compositions or the other criteria for composers. Overall a strong case this article fails WP:NMUSIC.

Fails GNG: The eclipse only occurred in the sea near Antarctica, and it is unlikely that anyone saw the eclipse at that time. Likewise, history does not record this eclipse, and this eclipse has no scientific value. Therefore, this eclipse is not of notability, and therefore the references in the entry do not prove notability, i.e., they do not constitute a valid introduction. Q28 (talk) 01:04, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Appears to fail WP:NCORP. The company, which per the article brings in an annual revenue of under 1 million Euros, currently contains three sources:
- A wordpress blog;
- A database entry at the Finnish trade register;
- Another database entry, this time from Kauppalehti.
None of these satisfy all three of WP:RS, WP:ORGIND, and WP:CORPDEPTH, so none contribute towards WP:ORGCRIT. A search returned few sources that even mention the brewery, and those that I found that did (such as this article, this article, this blog post, this list, and this travel guide) don't provide WP:CORPDEPTH-level coverage. As such, I think that this article should be deleted as its subject fails to meet the relevant notability guideline for corporations. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 00:57, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

But I don't have a strong opinion on this -- as an admin, JIP can easily go view the draft and copy it to their userspace themselves. What I'd really like to see is them translating into their userspace and then not moving to main until they've proven notability, as it seems fi.wiki may have profoundly different requirements. valereee (talk) 20:36, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

- Hi. I put quite some time into this article as it appears to me that it was originally written by someone very close to the school. I tried my best to improve it, but some kind of low-level edit war is going on. It seems clear to me that this school exists, and that they aim to use wikipedia to promote their services.
- Please also note already that they will claim that eduQua certification is somehow equivalent to them being accredited. This is misinformation. eduQua is not accredited.
- The only thing I wonder about - and this may not be reasoning fit for wikipedia - whether it would be a good idea to have a wikipedia article about them state clearly that they are not accredited, and their degrees may be worthless.

- Every single line in the description is fact. Because I checked and double-checked that before editing the description. One of your editors told me I had a conflict of interest, but I made it clear I was neither employed or connected to the school. My interest in Swiss education stems from the fact that my son wants a Master's while he is employed in Canada. That led me to SSBR, and that led me to your editor who keeps repeating that SSBR is not a university because it is not accredited by SEC. This led me back to researching their license, certification and the nature of their degrees. Your editor keeps claiming SSBR is not a university because they are not accredited by SAC, that eduQua quality label in adult education is basically worthless and therefore any degree they award is also worthless - even criminal. I find this incredibly offensive and personal. You may agree or disagree with the relative quality of education between universities and for-profit business schools, but to label a quality assurance label from the Swiss government as rubbish smacks of a personal agenda on display. As you can see yourself from the different links I included in my edits, the Swiss government, the European Union, as well as private institutes claim and qualify under the same system, but your editor refuses to even recognise that.
- My son may or may not go to SSBR or SSM, but I am disappointed that a single individual can define any institution for better or for worse on Wikipedia. ViRajPty (talk) 19:02, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know what to tell you, but you fell for some misinformation (perhaps from their own website?) and misunderstood accreditation in Switzerland. I don't blame you, the issue is complex. But somehow you misunderstand the license, certification and nature of their degrees. For example, by law a Swiss institution that calls itself a university must be accredited, which is why this one isn't calling itself a university and taking care, when pressed, to say they never claimed to be accredited. you also misunderstand that eduQua is not an academic accreditation.

Corfu Reading Society
This article does not establish organizational notability and is non-neutrally written. There is only one source provided, a book. We can assume that the book is an independent reliable secondary source, but that it does not constitute significant coverage by multiple reliable sources. Promotional material extends from the first paragraph to the last section. In the first paragraph:
It acquired a social, educational, political and patriotic character, occupying an important role in the intellectual and social life of the Ionian area, as it was born through the liberal Western European perceptions of early 19th century and the emerging common European concept.
In the last section:
The Corfu Reading Society, during the last fifty years, has developed a remarkable publishing activity that focuses on the study and promotion of Ionian culture.
A Wikipedia article should describe what third-party reliable sources say about an organization. This article is written from the perspective of the society and tells what the society says about itself. There is no discussion of third parties.
This page was moved from article space to draft space by one reviewer with the notation that it was not ready for article space. However, it was then moved back to article space by its author. Moving it back to draft space unilaterally a second time would be move-warring, and the community can decide on the disposition of the article. The organization probably is notable, but the current article is not a suitable beginning, and should probably be reduced in draft space to a stub and then rewritten from independent sources.

- Keep. In the context of the decomposition of the political parties of Italy's "First Republic" and reconstruction of new political parties, the subject is definitely encyclopedic. Every little piece of political history deserves a space in Wikipedia. Articles like this (the nominator proposed a string of AfDs today) should be clearly improved, but not deleted. Of course, the passing of time makes difficult to find more sources and information in the web, but I will do my best to improve the article. I think it should be kept, anyway. At first glance I see proposed deletions as harmful and time-wasting exercises, but hopfully they could become opportunities for improving articles. --Checco (talk) 19:48, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
- "In the context of the decomposition of the political parties of Italy's "First Republic" and reconstruction of new political parties", at each Afd, I see your opinions that are questionable, here we are talking about the splitting of the atom (without sources), not of the "decomposition of the political parties of Italy's First Republic".

- Strong Oppose I oppose the nomination for deletion. This article has been heavily edited in a time when I was legally blind and unable to keep things from going from decent to bad. I have sight in one eye now and can help you find sources. As to claims that it has aired in hundreds of countries, well, that seems a bit much. I'd like some time to try to bring this up to a better quality article. I watched the episodes that aired on Discovery's Animal Plant and they were entertaining for what they were. They were certainly a huge cut above the Cryptid shows that are the norm in present. Now that the show streams for free on Tubi, almost anyone can watch it. I volunteer to work on this and if given a list of requested changes and/or concerns, I will do what I can to help. LiPollis (talk) 02:35, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
- I was unable to find any reliable sources that discuss the show in any degree. As I said, I dug all over newspapers.com and ProQuest and found only false positives for unrelated content with the phrase "Animal X" in it. If you or another editor is unable to find reliable source coverage that I couldn't, then that would save the article. Whether or not you liked the show is immaterial; I like the announcing work of Randy West and still had to nominate his article for deletion because I couldn't find sources.

- Delete we need reliable sourcing on articles. Watching something and then writing an article from your watching it is not the way we get reliable sources.

- All of the sources added are either WP:PRIMARY -- that is, originating from the show, its network, or its distributor. The only exception is an obituary on one person involved in the show, which only mentions it very briefly. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 14:27, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
- I see that. In the two days I have had to search for new sources, I have been trying to verify claims about distribution in all those countries mentioned by other editors and it's problematic for a show of this age. Why not help me? The complaints about the article seem to be about sources and not notability and therefore this is something that could have been better dealt with on the article's talk page. I am not particularly enamored with this article but it does cover an early attempt to cover Crytpid inquiry with some basic science included as opposed to a bunch of people running around the woods asking each other if they heard a noise. A number of those types of shows have run for 100 or more episodes, much to my dismay. Part of the problem I am encountering is the changes in the show's name and the less than unique nature of the names confounds search engines of various types and makes trying to sort through sources a long and tiresome process. I have looked at the activity of past contributors and contributors to the project that began work on this and similar articles and it seems most are inactive. I'm working on this but I cannot fix it in a matter of days all on my own. Thank you for your feedback. LiPollis (talk) 08:40, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- I already did try a search on multiple platforms. "Storyteller Productions" + "Animal X" gives me no results whatsoever on Google News, newspapers.com, and ProQuest. There's literally nothing to help you with. The IMDb entry is completely blank. Even regular Google gives me only IMDb and sites that mirror its content. There's just nothing out there. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 14:39, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. The IMDB page isn't exactly blank, but a change in name from Storyteller Productions to Storyteller Media Group may not be helping matters. That and the fact that it has erroneous info. Here is a link to the page that lists other productions by the company and you may notice some similarities in content. Storyteller Media Group seems to be interested in both real or purported animals. Storyteller Media Group (Sorted by Popularity Ascending). There is also info available about the producer. The long time lapse between its first season airing in Australia and it's revival on Animal Planet is another problem. The dates complicate searches as does the common name of Animal plus the letter X. It is frustrating. Back when I was first editing, I wasn't careful to cache reviews in the Internet Archive, so those are just gone. I'm gonna give it some more time and clean out what I can. I've avoided deleting things just yet but the time has come. If I can't get some reviews or anything better than Internet rankings and IMDB popularity ratings, I will throw up my hands. Syndicated shows such as this with complicated production histories present unique problems. I do think the series is notable but I truly DO respect your concerns. Again, I thank you for your time, your reply and your interest in improving the article if possible. LiPollis (talk) 06:10, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Give me a list and I can get to work. Thanks for your timeLiPollis (talk) 05:15, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
- Draftify: An editor is expressing a good faith desire to improve the article with the belief that improvements can be made and satisfy WP:N. This can be done in Draft space outside the time constraints of AfD. - 2pou (talk) 17:14, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

- Draftify
Delete- Nothing in Newspapers, despite many hits for proof of the shows existence being it is named in TV guides as to what time and day it was aired, like this. Nothing on Wayback. Nothing on Proquest. Nothing on Google. Comments made about watching the show and "Give me time and I will find sources" are not valid reasons for keeping, as in my view they amount to WP:ILIKEIT and WP:SOURCESEXIST. There is no significant coverage by multiple, reliable, independent, secondary sources. Hence the article fails WP:GNG and no amount of editing can overcome its lack of notability. Wikipedia does not have an article on every television show in existence, I vote keep on any show I can see meets WP:GNG, but this one simply can not meet this guideline and so ought to be deleted.

- Changing to draftify based on sources located via EBSCO, a database I did not check. MaxnaCarter (talk) 05:40, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
- Draftify - More sourcing for the revival/spin off Animal X: Natural Mystery Unit, probably due to it being more recent and not airing in 90s where online sources may be scarce. Sydney Morning Herald with follow up in Herald again, Marshall News Messenger, Miraudo, Nadia (May 2, 2004). A matter of hit and myth. The Sunday Times via EBSCO. December 14, 2004. Film team hunts big cat. Hills Shire Times. p. 017. via Newsbank. Short blerb[20] announcing deal to make 3rd season. Small bit of coverage in Business News(AU). Obviously no point to delete main article and make new article for the spinoff. Current title covers both. More sourcing can be found while in draft state, but I think we have enough coverage on the 2004 show, and can use some time to sourcing for the original show, which is main reason I say draft for now rather than keep. If anyone can find more non primary sourcing for original two seasons, I would change to keep. Best I found was a quote from Western Morning News (November 2000, p.9) in this paper[21]. People with access to British/Australian sources would be helpful. WikiVirusC(talk) 13:49, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- You found all those on EBSCO? Thanks, I will add this resource to my list of databases to check. Changing vote to draftify also. I legit found nothing through my mentioned methods. Thanks @WikiVirusC- MaxnaCarter (talk) 05:38, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete an article mainly listing people who were born in a year who became important to something much later on does not really have much of a point. Television did not exist as a broadcast media in 1925.
