Belinda Song (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:GNG, WP:MUSICBIO, WP:AUTHOR and pretty much everything the subject has tried her hand at. I've spent some considerable time looking into this person and her various careers, and drawn a complete blank. I've searched under her three aliases Belinda Song, Belinda Elkaim and Samey Fong – her Chinese name is 方心美, which I believe translates to Xin Mei Fang, and I've tried searching these names as well, but all five names produce nothing more than YouTube videos and streaming websites. She certainly was signed to the Asian division of Polygram Records (now part of Universal Music) as a teenager back in the 1980s, but I can't find any evidence that she was particularly successful – obviously sources from the time are likely to only exist as print copies of the Hong Kong newspapers, so I can't check that part of her career. Since she relaunched her music career in the 2010s all her releases have been independent, and the videos mostly premiered through her Instagram TV channel – the 2021 and 2022 releases in the article state "Universal Music Group", but that's not entirely accurate... she releases them via Spinnup, a company set up by Universal Music to distribute music uploaded by independent artists, and her low-budget music videos certainly don't appear to have been financed by a global music conglomerate. Similarly, her four novels have all been self-published, and the film was written and directed by Ms. Song herself, and she played the lead role in it. Kudos to Ms. Song for her entrepreneurial efforts, but I don't see anything that makes her notable for a Wikipedia article. Richard3120 (talk) 00:16, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. Although there is virtually no discussion, the "delete" argument is compelling: the article is sourced only to the party's founder's website, making it fail the core policy WP:V - i.e., readers can't verify what the article says in independent reliable sources.

Doesn't seem notable. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 07:44, 9 March 2022 (UTC) Article about a Hungarian political party, sourced solely to the website of the founder. Tagged for more sources since 2017. Deleted under both names on huwiki (deletion discussion from 2014, deletion discussion from January 2022). I don't think they are notable. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 07:38, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This minor party was able to set up national list in the 2014 national election and also took part in the 2014 EP election, meeting the conditions for departure (collecting signatures). It received c. 0.5% in both elections (6th place and 7th place, respectively). Although the article is poorly sourced, this extra-parliamentary party is notable. --Norden1990 (talk) 22:19, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, WP:JUSTNOTNOTABLE nomination, the subject passed GNG at the time of the first nomination and still passes GNG today. In the meanwhile he was also the subject of a graphic novel (new sources covering both the subject and the graphic novel include GQ [1], la Repubblica [2], Leggo [3]). This is a very recent article about him. As a side note, calling him a meme is somewhat inaccurate for someone who emerged in the 1980s, when the word meme had not yet been coined. Cavarrone 10:27, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep although it may be hard for people outside of Italy to grasp the significance. I don't think this should be called a "meme" or an "internet phenomenon". It really speaks to much older traditions, which is obvious from the dedication of a song about "Piero" - the Italian "sad sack" character who always loses but keeps going. Magnotta clearly became a symbol in that culture. Note: many of the links (e.g. Repubblica) give me a 404, so if someone has access to those it would be good to archive them, or at least give a full citation.

  • Delete. I could not find any RS via Google or Newsbank (there are several passing mentions of him as co-owner of the Western Sydney Wanderers; and more recently as Sunshine Coast Wanderers president (many of which are in local newspapers eg Sunshine Coast Daily (Maroochydore)). Of the 3 sources that are currently on the page, the AFR article might pass for RS; the SMH article is really just a routine passing mention in an article otherwise focused around the Parramatta Eels; and I couldn't find the Daily Telegraph article, although presumably similar articles from June 2014 (that I could access) only mention Duncan in passing. In summary from my research: fails WP:GNG; WP:BASIC; WP:ANYBIO. Cabrils (talk) 20:34, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No clear indication of notability. PepperBeast (talk) 22:16, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There's a lot of hits on Newspaper archive. Here's a 1906 Baltimore Sun article chock full of quotes from people praising his planning proposal for an exposition, a 1914 article from the Frederick News-Post about he and Baltimore's mayor, James H. Preston, being criticized by the chair of some event committee, and this Washington Times article about being elected president of the National Hotel Men's Benefit Association. The Sun also reported on a banquet honoring Joyce in 1911. It looks Joyce had a significant role in Baltimore's social & political scene in the early 1900's.

A producer notable because of one controversial film (of which he was an associate producer) and I think the article for the movie is sufficient. References are either passing mentions, don't mention him at all or are dead links. As a whole, not a notable career as an activist, film producer, DJ or media consultant, worthy of his own article on Wikipedia. When you do a search for him, you will come across a more famous Mark Mathis, a meteorologist, who has more coverage online. Liz Read! Talk! 19:00, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thought this felt a bit WP:PROMO, but the lack of sources doesn't help. When I did a google search I see a documentation and downloads for it. I don't see reviews or how this passes basic WP:GNG. Govvy (talk) 14:37, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep
It was never my intention to fully write this article. I don't know enough about the program(!), but felt it should be included here. Here are some links that might help with its inclusion (from here):
It is the subject of instruction at multiple grade schools, high schools, universities or post-graduate programs. This criterion does not apply to software merely used in instruction.
e.g.
- Virginia Tech
- University of Oxford
- maastricht university suggests it is part of an MA course
- University of Maryland (not sure what purpose this blog indicates)
- University of Nottingham (ditto)
It is the subject of multiple printed third-party manuals, instruction books, or reliable reviews, written by independent authors and published by independent publishers.
e.g.
- Sketchfab
- gamedesigning
- creative shrimp
- renderro
- ray wenderlich
- linkedin learning
- Comparative Analysis of Open-Source and Commercial Photogrammetry Software for Cultural Heritage conference paper
- University of Queensland (review/comparison)
used for making music videos
- Everything Everything - In Birdsong
I can do some more digging if needed
Pluke (talk) 15:19, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • What the article needs is improvement, not more digging. Independent sources, a neutral style and tone is necessary. The Banner talk 10:28, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      Completely agree, but I think we need to dismiss the AfD before we spend too much effort on this. The above list should serve as a good starting point to improve things. Pluke (talk) 11:25, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      Not really. You made a low quality article as a way to deflect this discussion. Now it is up to you to bring the article up to standard before an admin comes with the decision. The Banner talk 11:47, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      I'm not sure that's how things work around here. I've not done much serious editing for a very long time, but it used to be that articles can be created as stubs for other people to improve on. If this has changed, please point me to the policy. I'm not trying to deflect the discussion, I asked you for the policy you were referring to for inclusion on the list you are maintaining, you appear to have your own criteria, which I'm not wanting to get into a huge argument about as you're clearly doing a good job of maintaining the list. I met your criteria, created a stub, have now pulled together a load of potential sources to improve the article. As I noted in the other discussion the question here was about he notability of the software product, as evidenced by this AfD, not about it having a page. There is no obligation for me to do anything, this site generally runs on good will, I hope to come back to this when I have a little more time. Pluke (talk) 13:43, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      Throw something over the fence and others can do the work??? But in the present state, the article will most likely not survive. The Banner talk 16:29, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      I don't have time right now to convert the multiple sources I have provided above into a full article. Wiki writing, for me at least, is an iterative process, and if you note what I've said, I'm intending on working on this article, just not now. If you think that the article should be deleted, please make the case here, this is what this page is for. I believe that I've provided enough evidence for this article to survive as a stub, which will hopefully be worked on by me and others. Pluke (talk) 16:55, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I commend Pluke's effort, to which I will add [17] as evidence that databases of scientific papers should be searched before the article can be deleted. I will note that the Notability (software) essay linked is not official policy. Despite this, and the article's current lacking state, I believe it can be improved to a suitably encyclopedic state and has a sufficient claim to notability, so deletion is not the solution.

Nalanidil, can you give the page where this name is said? By the way, if only one single source talks about this term, the information becomes doubtful. Super Ψ Dro 18:20, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
This is a PDF, I will scroll down it, but yes i understand what you mean, this is why i was confused too, the majority sources said they are turks, only one source said they are of mixed background

Non-notable record label. Distributor is a redlink. Company received a Canadian Country Music Award nomination in 2006, but it was only a nomination for a very small organization.

It looks like they had three nominations for the CCMAs over several different years, from the CCMA website, but did not win, so. I can't find any indication of the artists they published, though there are some indications they were involved with the second album from George Canyon before he had his breakout a few years later. I can't find any indication of them being significant past those - must have been something there at one time, maybe, but not now. Delete Tony Fox (arf!) 20:42, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Delete Most sources are from a government database. No significant news coverage I was able to find. If someone knows Georgian though, they could find more reliable sources. 2601:647:5800:1A1F:4CAE:9DE2:30BC:86D9 (talk) 22:29, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep First of all, let's start with the fact that doubting the seriousness of government websites is a curious story, and secondly, I sincerely wonder why the article hit here? There are links from several fully secured government websites, also from the biographical dictionary of Georgia, where you can't see biographies of "random" people. Also with a few words about notability, maybe it's funny to have any questions seriously about that, when we are talking about standards, check this project, there are too many biographies of several people who are not really notable, at first clean them and talk then. You are saying that humans without "notability" can be on governmental websites and be the regular part of lives on television? If you will google his name in Georgian, you will find too many links of his interviews or his tv lives. And also ecxept of governmental website links, there is the link to Radio Liberty, maybe we don't have any questions about the reputation of Radio Liberty. And also there is one link, where you can see his status in government in 2004. https://www.matsne.gov.ge/ka/document/download/35266/0/ge/doc ----ჯეო4WIKIMessage MeContributions 16:09, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    • As for you, you are a politically biased representative of the Georgian Wikipedia, who does not accept other and alien political worldviews, which, among other things, you have repeatedly removed the biography of David Osepashvili from the Georgian Wikipedia. I wrote about this in that discussion, because of which you deleted my comment where it was mentioned and then blocked me for an indefinite time in the Georgian Wikipedia. Mileniumik (talk) 19:37, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • You even deleted information and booklets about your party affiliation on your page, when I gave you a remark about this. Does your party affiliation and engagement give you the right to resolve Wikipedia issues in a politically biased way? You are not an neutral and very biased member of the Georgian Wikipedia, who, for political reasons, deletes pages that are objectionable to you and blocks those whose views are unacceptable to you. Mileniumik (talk) 20:00, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Can we please not import disagreements from another Wikipedia and concentrate on whether this person passes our notability guidelines? I'm especially interested in whether the Biographical Dictionary of Georgia can be said to be reliable. This page, especially the comment near the bottom, "we need only to contact with you if we have any questions or need to refine the data", would appear to indicate that in most cases it simply prints whatever people send it. Does anyone have any evidence that contradicts this? Phil Bridger (talk) 22:04, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The Biographical Lexicon of Georgia is a government organization and applies all the preferences that are available to it. The lexicon domain itself is located on the gov domain. which gives him a reliable status and a trusted source of information. As far as I know, the organization has direct access to the Georgian archival and many other resources (which Wikipedia does not have). through these resources, he checks most of the information that is sent to her and after that, a decision is made to publish a biography. The Biographical Lexicon itself is located in the Georgian Wikipedia, and if this organization does not have trust, why then does the Georgian Wikipedia remove the information about the lexicon as a fake page?
    • The Georgian version of the lexicon explicitly states that: A biography can be offered by any person who has published an article. When filling out or editing a resume, please note that all proposals will be checked!

    • A lot of Georgian politicians and media people are in the Georgian Wikipedia, who provide a link to the Georgian biographical lexicon, which does not become an obstacle for them to publish their articles. There are dozens, hundreds, and hundreds of such examples. It turns out that in most cases the lexicon works. And double standards are unacceptable, which guide the Georgian Wikipedia. Mileniumik (talk) 09:42, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The question is very simple! The Georgian Wikipedia blocked me and deleted my comments on their site, they also deleted the article for personal and political reasons. They are now trying to get you to remove my article from other language wikipedias. I would like foreign representatives of the English Wikipedia to know that this is direct discrimination and persecution of me by those who have great power in the vastness of Wikipedia. I ask for your help and support. Mileniumik (talk) 09:57, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • You will get support in this discussion if you show evidence that this article should be kept on the English Wikipedia. Anything that happens on another language Wikipedia is the concern of that Wikipedia, or in extremis of meta or the Wikimedia Foundation. We have no control here over what happens on the Georgian Wikipedia, so there is no point in your going on about how badly you have been treated there.

        • Thank you for your feedback. As for the article, it is supported by many resources and links, which certifies the accuracy of information about David Osepashvili.

          1. Biography from the Biographical Dictionary of the National Parliament of Georgia.
          2. Several interviews and live broadcasts from the Georgian Public Broadcaster.
          3. Interview from the news program of TV company "Rustavi 2".
          4. Debate on TV channel "Obieqtivi".

          • Debates and interviews and the subject's Facebook autobiography are not fact-checked independent sources; a Google link isn't a source at all. You have one biographical source, and the argument above is that it's shaky because there's no editorial control and it is tantamount to autobiography. Find more independent, reliable, in-depth sources. Where is this person's life and works documented other than the subject writing/speaking/submitting autobiographes about xyrself? Uncle G (talk) 16:31, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
            I'm not sure what other sources you need? Those authoritative sources that are presented are real and trustworthy sources that cannot be disputed. You have no real facts that these sources are invalid. Your skepticism is your personal opinion and I have nothing more to add to all of the above. Mileniumik (talk) 14:16, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
            Apparently you didn't fully read the comments above. It would be nice if you re-read them carefully. I repeat that distrust of the Georgian Biographical lexicon is a distrust of the national parliament of Georgia and its structure. It is a pity that you give yourself the right to claim that this resource is unreliable. You don’t even know what principles this structure works on, but you give yourself the right to be ashamed of the work of this authoritative body. Your arguments are completely invalid. Mileniumik (talk) 14:32, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
            As for information from Google, it was mentioned above that information about a given person is not searched for in Google. It would be good if you read the comments carefully and not selectively, then the meaning and essence of the question will be more clear to you. Mileniumik (talk) 14:36, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

        • First of all, as of March 19-25, the article has 307 views in the English Wikipedia alone, after which to say that there is no demand for the article is nonsense. To argue that an article should not exist is to first and foremost underscore the attitude of a number of editors towards the project, some of you have declared war on the article, which is secondly absurd, this project is much more developed in Georgian and you can not believe the article has never been seen by an English Wikipedia editor. Which could mark it as deleted if it deemed it necessary. What is happening now is just comical.----ჯეო4WIKIMessage MeContributions 12:23, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
          • Your argument about demand is foolish a straw man, because only you even raise that argument (and 307 views could have come from this discussion alone). As Phil Bridger says, you need to show that, per Project:deletion policy and per things like our Project:Notability criteria, multiple in-depth independent reliable sources exist. All of this straw man stuff and attempts to paint everyone else as "declaring war" and other such hyperbolic rubbish, will have no effect at all. At the moment there's only one source, with an argument that it is neither reliable nor independent. Per Project:deletion policy that's a delete; and that's where this will go unless you pull your socks up and start making proper arguments instead of this ludicrous ad hominem. Find sources; discuss them. Uncle G (talk) 16:31, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        I sent a complaint to Wikimedia about Mehman Ibragimov and I'm waiting for a response from them. The text of the complaint is below:
        I would like to inform you about the obscene behavior and inappropriate actions of Mehman Ibragimov, Chair of Board, Wikimedia UG Georgia, Member, Affiliations Committee, which Blocks the "Mileniumic" user and deletes David Osepashvili's pages in Georgian, Azerbaijani, English, Turkish and other languages. Ibragimov's motivation is political, since his and his political positions in Georgia do not match. He maliciously and unlawfully uses the levers given to him as the chairman of the Georgian Wikipedia and also a member of the board of Wikimedia. I ask you to revise his illegal actions and cancel all his actions related to the removal of David Osepashvili's pages in Georgian, English and other languages. Ibragimov directly comes into conflict with the Georgian Biographical Dictionary of Georgia, which is subordinate to the Georgian National Parliament and also discredits the State institutions of Georgia, as well as with the Georgian government, with which he has very bad relations. Mileniumik (talk) 09:14, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        You are welcome to send messages to whoever you please, but, as far as this discussion is concerned, we still need to see significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Even if the Biographical Dictionary is considered to be independent and reliable (a big "if") then it is still just one source. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:13, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Here's an extensive description of the Party and its Kansas-related archive at the Kansas Historical Society. "As socialists increased in size and vocality most newspapers in the county including the Times started campaigns denouncing the party as a threat to home and church." An "Army of Amazons": The Language of Protest in a Kansas Mining Community, 1921-22 p.693 There's multiple references to the Party in Kansas in James Green's (1978) "Grass-Roots Socialism Radical Movements in the Southwest, 1895–1943". These took me 10 minutes to find. There's also the already mentioned numerous sources available via newspapers.com. The most simple searching reveals extensive evidence of the Party's presence and actions in early 20th Century Kansas; there's no shortage of reliable sourcing available for anyone who wishes to write an article. It's not unreasonable to expect a nominator to carry out simple searching using the tools widely available to all. If you're not already a member of the WP:WIKILIB, I'd highly recommend it, if you are, perhaps make more use of it. :) Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 22:08, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge/Rename Regardless of whether or not this article gets deleted, it should be listed on the Socialist Party USA list. Having looked at the two articles for the former state parties of California and Maine, I think we could find enough to pad this out a little more, but I agree that the notability of the article is questionable. This party/chapter is not active and it is not listed on the Socialist Party USA's official website. This element of Kansas history is important in that it existed at all. However, if this article is actual meant to be about the chapter founded in 2008 under the SPUSA, I'm not sure that information about socialism is actually relevant. I would much rather see this information merged to a Socialism in Kansas type page. IronRose26 (talk) 14:27, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article is not spam, though I am sure it can be improved.
The company has already raised $100 million, which is a notable feat itself in Pakistan. The company has been covered by Bloomberg, Forbes, Harvard Business Review, with sustained coverage for the last 2 years.
I don't know what a black hat SEO is, SEO is search engine optimization, on the article I have only linked it to their official website, I have no affiliation with the company in the discussion.

An extremely minor and unimportant socialist party with no elected officeholders (aside from a single victory in a non-partisan race by an apparent party member) or history of anything resembling ballot access, let alone electoral success. The vast majority of sources are to the party's website or Ballot-access.org. Among the remaining sources, source 15 doesn't mention the party at all and source and source 16 doesn't mention them either. Any other mentions appear to be glancing, with no real detail on anything other than the fact the party evidently exists. Any useful information can surely be merged into other Trotskyist articles. Toa Nidhiki05 15:57, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The Alexander source is the standard for Trotskyist groups; it is reliable and provides substantial information on the group. Klehr looks like another substantial, independent, source. Material sourced to the party itself might benefit from trimming, but that's no reason to delete. Warofdreams talk 16:51, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Kiehr source appears to be a dictionary-style entry in a comprehensive collection of almost every American Trotskyist group under the sun. Per WP:ORGDEPTH ("inclusion in collections that have indiscriminate inclusion criteria"), this likely doesn't qualify as independent sourcing. Toa Nidhiki05 17:33, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

He has worked as part of the production team for famous articles, but is not famous himself. Does not have significant coverage. Mvqr (talk) 14:27, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fair point - the subject is not famous in a media logic sense. But is fame really a requisite for a Wikipedia article? According to guidelines as far as I can read, it seems to be notability? Creating "famous" works should perhaps be within the realm of notability? Kransen (talk) 15:03, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. When I read the article I thought that of course he is notable if he wrote all those notable songs. But when I checked the sources it looks like he mostly worked as a producer. I am not convinced that is enough of an artistic contribution to outweigh the lack of WP:GNG coverage. Sjö (talk) 15:20, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    As a further point, in the more notable productions he was involved in, he is one of several producers in the credits on the Wikipedia articles. However, taking Came Here for Love as an example, this was added today by an IP and Jarly doesn't appear in the credits of discogs. Mvqr (talk) 16:10, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Really what you are suggesting is that working in a team renders the team members not notable? And also record producers are per se not notable if they didn't also write the music they produce? Both very biased views, and not fit for a discussion on the topic of deleting a specific page, rather an interesting philosophical one on the various roles in music and their importance? But back to the topic - you want to delete the page of a record producer while their music has been awarded with as many as 8 UK Platinum awards (8 x 600 000 sales), with the argument that it's not notable enough? What does a record producer have to do in your eyes to be worthy of a Wikipedia page?
    As to the Discogs comment - I have no idea why they are not listing the actual label copy like the Spotify/Tidal and Genius do, Discogs is afaik crowdsourced with somewhat less strict guidelines than Wikipedia. Kransen (talk) 17:06, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bautier was a non-medaling Olympian. Per the hockey fandom Wiki which has the most information I could find on him anywhere, Olympia lists him in a chart with no explanatory text at all, Bautier played in 1 game in the Olympics. He played club hockey in Belgium. This is not the level that would lead to passing notability guidelines for hockey. There are three other language sources on him, of those 2 use only the one source we have here in the English version. The Magyar Wikipedia seems to have two other data table links, but nothing that is even as far as I can tell close to being a reliable secondary source that is indepdent and gives significant coverage. My google book search mainly turned up cases where someone with the last name of Andre had their name just before someone in a list with the first name of Bautier. There is no evidence at all that this person was at all even marginally notable. Belgium's ice hockey team played in the 1927 European championships, where it got a silver medal, but the evidence I have come across so far suggests that Bautier did not play in that game. Everything I found lacked any sourcing on him or in the unreliable fandom source it suggests that he is far below our inclusion criteria as a hockey player.

  • Comment An article about the street in Bangkok doesn't appear to be notable. But an article about the banana and the associated namings from it probably is. Article needs to be a complete rewrite to be about the fruit, linking to other associations. Looking at the Thai version of the page, it's just a disambiguation to various other pages, that are redlinks. That said, the Thai disambiguation page somehow misses the university campus at th:มหาวิทยาลัยกรุงเทพ#วิทยาเขตกล้วยน้ำไท_(City_Campus). The English equivalent would be Bangkok University#City campus - but that doesn't seem a suitable place for a merge. I'm a little stumped what should be done here. There's unique encyclopaedic content here, but it's in the wrong place. If we draftify, we are most likely just deleting it. Maybe Keep does the least damage. The merge that User:Paul_012 ponders to a new "Neighbourhoods" section in Khlong Toei district might work - but it doesn't fit there either - and surely would go underneath the appropriate subdistrict first - none of which have articles. I'd have thought that these days, the area would be more likely called Ekkamai - though my only familiarity with the area is using the bus station and BTR station.Nfitz (talk) 22:13, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. His name is amusingly parodic-sounding, but beyond that he seems to have done nothing notable to warrant a place in a global encyclopaedia, which is not supposed overtly to favour either inherited position or wealth attained through celebrity (both of which enforce a disproportionate bias towards Anglophone countries - Britain and to a lesser extent Ireland specifically in the first case, all Anglophone countries but especially the United States in the second case - which we should be avoiding). Some peers who have never been eligible to sit in Parliament are notable because they have done things not stereotypically expected of their class, such as the current Earl of Shaftesbury, so there is coverage on these grounds. This one does not appear to be a surprising or unusual figure, so he has not gained the coverage which people of his class once gained as a matter of course, before modern celebrity culture, which probably would push some peers of those times past our notability guidelines even if they had not all been eligible to sit in the Lords (indeed, there are probably people born into the aristocracy before 1939, and even more so before 1914, who never inherited actual titles and did not sit in Parliament but are Wiki-notable through such coverage in ways their equivalents today would not be).

  • Comment Wikipedia is a global encyclopaedia, but there isn't such a thing as a global "notability factor" detached from specific cultural contexts. People who are notable in one culture may not be notable in another culture, and there is nothing inherent wrong with that. And I don't think we should be mocking naming practices of specific cultures for no very good reason. Atchom (talk) 17:03, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is a case against the reversion, although that list and the several other 2-entry articles are just crying out for a navbox in a template instead of all of these wordy lists across multiple articles:

I can find no evidence this working group's work achieved notability or completion, which means there's no TNT solution for this coat rack. There's no indication that the merger of the governing bodies went through, and no viable ATD target. Star Mississippi 02:21, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

NATSS was seen by many as a 'power-grab' exercise, devised and driven largely by one individual who was subsequently removed from a position where that person could continue having influence.
Some of those backing the proposal preferred to stay in the background, anonymous.
It was quite clear to me, and to very many shooters, that every "workshop" and report was thoroughly biassed, and less than meaningful. Some were seen as downright dishonest.
The arrangement with "Performance Matters" was dubious at best, and possibly worse.
By and large, the shooters of the UK , then and now, seem to feel that their core disciplines are not sufficiently compatible in what they exist to do, and how they are organised, to be suitable for outright amalgamation under one body, as was the ambition of the proponents of the NATSS project. Most notably, the CPSA (clay target shooting)was sceptical from the start, the more so as it was organised differently from the others, and of course because it was (by a margin) by membership and financial status the largest of the targetted bodies for absorption into NATSS. When CPSA announced it was suspending consideration of joining NATSS, the project as a whole became essentially non-viable (most notably financially of course), and withered away quickly thereafter, especially when NSRA soon after also expressed a disinclination to rush towards amalgamation.
That is NOT to say amalgamation is a 'dead duck'.
Doubtless there will be a few who still hanker after amalgamation along the NATSS lines.
The concept of amalgamation and forming a 'NATSS' of some sort was and is often likened to forcing the amalgmation of the national governing bodies of all ball games involving hitting a ball with some sort of implement, such as tennis, badminton, squash, lacrosse, hockey, cricket, table-tennis, and perhaps even ice-hockey and golf. The shooting disciplines are as diverse, which is of course the very reason they evolved into their current national governing bodies.
My own view is to leave the NATSS article in place for a while yet, as it is essentially the ONLY place where may be found a decent explanation of a project which then, and perhaps in the future, would completely change the organisation of the shooting sports, arguably not for the better so far as the grass-roots shooters are involved. 188.30.193.210 (talk) 09:56, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks IP 188 for the insight. The only issue with that is we require secondary coverage to have an encyclopedia article, so if this is the only place the information exists, that might be challenging. Star Mississippi 13:27, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. My search was similarly unable to find significant coverage in sources independent of the relevant organizations, and I agree with the nom that no alternatives to deletion come to mind. If this "is essentially the ONLY place where may be found a decent explanation" of the project, then unfortunately we can't keep the page either: because our job as an encyclopedia is to summarize information that secondary sources have already collected, our guidelines discourage us from including articles about topics that haven't received significant coverage from independent reliable sources.

  • This has been a very tough issue to get to the bottom of, Mrschimpf. It seems that the only way NTC releases lists of operating broadcast stations is when people ask for them in Freedom of Information requests. Looking at recent requests at foi.gov.ph, I now have a full list dated June 2020 and a partial list (one page) from December 2021. In this listing, no suffix is bundled with the call sign. A typical entry reads as follows: Type: TV / Company: People's Television Network, Inc. / Call Sign: DWGT / Ch.: 4 / Location: Quezon City / Province: Metro Manila There are five types of stations, which are TV, Relay, Translator, DTV, and Pay TV (assigned to one station, DZBC channel 30). Translators use the "D-(channel number)-(letters)" scheme. Others have four-letter call signs. In digital, a translator inherits its existing call sign, e.g. D-8-XM (listed as digital 42, analog 8) Mt. Sto. Tomas, Benguet. The FM listings the NTC publishes also use this type of format, so there is little to compare to.
It is very difficult to suss out the correct form for a call sign, though it is worth noting that a lot of "-TV" uses tend to cite to Wikipedia. I understand why "-DTV" might have been chosen by editors, because the Philippines is an ISDB-T country, and in doing so this would follow Japan. I think the broader problem is that a lot of Philippines TV station pages have sought to blindly mimic the form of US pages (plus a dash of their own quirks) when that is not always the most appropriate thing to do. I had to run an AWB edit recently to remove every mention of PSIP, an ATSC 1.0 element inapplicable to this country, from Philippines pages—dozens of them.
I have opted to email the Broadcast Services Division of the NTC in hopes of trying to get a definitive response as to the call sign suffixes topic. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 05:44, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think that NTC have not yet released any orders on the standard naming convention on digital-only TV stations. Some of the editors here are just adopting the US naming convention that if a station goes all-digital, they will adopt the -DTV callsign. That's why I reverted some of their edits. -WayKurat (talk) 07:33, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The way the US worked was that all stations pre-transition got a -DT suffix, and then after transition, -DT could be kept if desired but most dropped the suffix or went back to -TV. -DTV as a suffix is much more Japanese. I kind of gather that COVID has really slowed down the NTC, which even in normal times does not seem to be the best at disseminating information. Articles like this put us in the very unusual position of possibly determining the naming conventions ahead of the regulatory authority. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 07:51, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Stashing this here... DWCP-DTV, DWFA-DTV, DWFB-DTV, DWFU-DTV, DWHB-DTV, DZEC-DTV, DWVN-DTV, DYBU-DTV, DZBC-DTV, DZOZ-DTV, and DZRJ-DTV are the articles so named at this time. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 04:02, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • I understand this discussion is a naming conventions one, but to close it out, I am now in receipt of a reply from the NTC. This is what I sent them on March 2:

1. Do call signs in the Philippines have suffixes for...

AM? (which is correct: DXXX-AM vs. DXXX) FM? (which is correct: DXXX-FM vs. DXXX) TV? (which is correct: DXXX-TV vs. DXXX)

2. If TV stations do have call signs with suffixes...

Does this also apply to translator stations? (which is correct: D-7-ZG-TV or D-7-ZG)

Is there a separate or distinct suffix for digital TV stations (e.g. DWET-DTV), or do digital TV stations also use a -TV suffix?

The reply was dated March 8 and reached my inbox within the last hour.

Please be informed that the International Telecommunication [sic] Union (ITU) allocated/assigned standard call sign prefixes or unique identifiers to radio and television stations for all the countries, assigning DW, DX, DY and DZ prefixes to the Philippines. Prefix DW and DZ is assigned for Luzon, DY for Visayas and DX for Mindanao. For your inquiry, please be informed that same prefixes/call-sign followed by the service type (AM, FM, TV & DTV) for identification can be assigned to different services i.e. DXXX-AM, DXXX-FM, DXXX-TV and DXXX-DTV. While for the translator, the call-sign format as D-(channel)-two suffix i.e. D-7-AB.

So, Mrschimpf, DTV is a valid call sign suffix in the Philippines. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 02:41, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks so much, Sammi Brie, that will be very helpful for future noms. I promised to remain neutral until I got clarity, and I have the information I need. Nate (chatter) 03:19, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It might add that in my opinion, all the information in this article can be presented in either the Camila album article or Cabello's discography article.

The article seems to be on an "innovative project" without coverage by any reliable sources online, and the references provided are not independent of the subject in my opinion. Furthermore, the article seems to be written similarly to an advertisement ("The main goal of this project is to create an environment where players are able to earn a sustainable income through gameplay alone") and provides an encyclopedic roadmap. This is my first AfD, so many thanks for your time and help. VickKiang (talk) 01:29, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete I’m not quite sure that’s a valid vote at AfD, but this article is entirely unsourced and is clearly an advertisement. Internet search results indicate that “MetaBots” refers to multiple subjects different from the article subject, and turns up no evidence for the subject of this article. Toadspike (talk) 05:03, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It was created years ago (in December 2005) as a redirect, which I have restored. The newly registered editor who was trying to turn it into an advertisement will be blocked if necessary. – Athaenara 07:37, 23 March 2022 (UTC) 09:14, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep original redirect and protect if necessary. The recently added text would have been an easy speedy deletion decision per A7 and/or G11 if it had been created as a new article (and yes, Toadspike, speedy deletion is a valid !vote if the article is seen as meeting the criteria). @VickKiang: Better course would have been simply to revert the spam rather than taking it to AfD, but no harm done. It's never a bad idea to check the edit history to get a better picture of what can/should be done. --Finngall talk 19:18, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help and advice, will check article history next time. Should this AfD be closed, as the article was already redirected? Cheers. VickKiang (talk) 01:57, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Hello all, thanks for all the feedback. I'm a frequent user of Wikipedia, but it's the first time that I decided to create a informative page about a project. Please note that Metabots is not the same as Medabots, so I'm not sure why the page got deleted and redirected to Medabots. Metabots is an upcoming P2E videogame within the Metaverse. Pupose of the page was to provide useful information about the project and videogame, since even Google often confuses and redirect Metabots searches towards the older and well know videogame/tv series of Medabots. Furthermore, I'm not a developer or team member myself, but just a fan of the project who wanted to contribute by starting an informative wikipedia page. I hope this answers all your concers. Hopefully the Metabots page can be restored with the previous content. In case of any additional questions please let me know. Thanks and best regards, Black Eagle NL — Preceding unsigned comment added by Black Eagle NL (talkcontribs) 18:23, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This should definitely not be restored, it is promotional like an advertisement and unencyclopedic, unless you provide two reliable sources for video games (e.g., IGN, PC Gamer etc... see the video game project for a better list, not merely its homepage itself, which is not independent) and write in a neutral manner (i.e., your version: "MetaBots is an innovative project that combines the Metaverse, NFTs and the Play to Earn concept" and roadmap is indubitably promotional). If you could respond to those issues (which seems to be difficult for such a non-notable game), you might be able to submit for Articles for Creation and it might be approved, however, if you restore it to the previous version it would be reverted to the redirect, or deleted. I hope this helps, some more experienced editors here likely have much more insightful advice, but in a nutshell please do not restore it. Cheers and happy editing.

The result was soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. Liz Read! Talk! 21:38, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable musician. Claims notability for working with other notable names, but WP:NOTINHERITED is in play. Inducted into a hall of fame that does not seem notable on its own. Has written songs but no claim to notability for the songs. Only one album released independently in 1988. Sources are entirely local coverage from his hometown, or the non-notable hall of fame into which he was inducted. Made a few appearances on RFD TV on a show that doesn't even have its own page. His son, Jamie Teachenor, also had his article deleted for lack of notability. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 00:56, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Agree with nom, notability was not demonstrated, sourcing is inadequate, and large parts of the article are unsourced. I would not be surprised if there were COI editing going on here (the main contributor has eight times as many edits here as on any other page). Toadspike (talk) 05:13, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
