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)

- Delete We need significant coverage of someone created by others to justify an article on someone, and that is lacking here.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:01, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per the nominator's detailed and well-researched rationale and per the lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. I searched for sources using the terms "Belinda Song", "Belinda Elkaim", and "Samey Fong", and for her Chinese name "方心美" and could not find coverage in any reliable sources about her. She does not meet Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.
- Nice breakdown by nom. Delete per that rationale. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:46, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

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.

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)

- 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)
- Comment: The word "meme" was introduced in Richard Dawkins' book The Selfish Gene, published in 1976. However, it did not yet have its usual modern sense in the 1980s. Gildir (talk) 09:38, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- 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. Lamona (talk) 15:11, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

- So, are you in favor of deletion? ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 16:41, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment. Firstly, AFD is not cleanup. Second, GDS has hosted the European Tour four times, so it's reasonably likely that sources exist, but it's tough to find them in the ocean of holiday sites and directory listings (I remember there was a good sized article in one of the golf magazines about 25–30 years ago!). Finally, per WP:ATD, a merge and redirect to San Miguel de Abona, the municipality in which it is located, is the best course of action if sources cannot be unearthed at this time. wjematherplease leave a message... 18:20, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. Do not merge/redirect; articles about municipalities do not routinely contain content about random golf courses, and it would not be a relevant search term. Stifle (talk) 14:29, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- Nonsense. Articles about municipalities often contain information about developments, sports facilities, etc.; indeed in this case, GdS is already mentioned there; and page view statistics suggest there is value in providing a redirect. wjematherplease leave a message... 14:58, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

- Keep. Ref #1 in the article is a book, not a census document as claimed by the nom and appears to have more than a passing mention, also claimed by the nom. There is more than a passing mention in other books such as Comprehensive Balochistan General Knowledge. If the article can't be expanded beyond what we currently have, then find somewhere to merge it to. Legends and myths from ancient times should be part of the foundations of any general encyclopaedia. SpinningSpark 19:48, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- A book on "general knowledge" aimed at civil services aspirants is not a reliable source for topics of ancient history. TrangaBellam (talk) 13:30, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

- A book on "general knowledge" aimed at civil services aspirants is not a reliable source for topics of ancient history. TrangaBellam (talk) 13:30, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- Merge/Redirect though there is little to merge to Sibi, where there is a section on history. Even if this is solely based on tradition, there is no harm in including it in WP, though with suitable qualifying comments on the reliability of the information. However any article should be about the polity ruled, not about the ruling dynasty. This would not apply if the area ruled was a handful of villages and/or subject to the suzerainty of a larger state. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:25, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- Honestly, we do not have any material to merge apart from a single line even if we agree to use highly questionable sources. TrangaBellam (talk) 18:01, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

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.

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.

- Comment – several of the above keep !voters claim that they have found sources, but they do not list them. Deletion discussions are not a vote, and "merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive". Since the only sources that I can find are press releases and a non-independent interview, I stand by my delete !vote. I would encourage the closer to look at the strength of the arguments here, as well as the fact that this discussion may have been impacted by sockpuppetry, canvassing, and/or single-purpose accounts.

- [11] is a non-independent interview; [12] is unreliable and not significant coverage (it's just a site to download his music); [13] appears to be a duplicate of the first source (and thus still a non-independent interview); [14] is an advertisement for a concert; [15] is a textbook trivial mention that names "Arash Avin from Iran" in a long list of people who participated in an event; [16] is a two-sentence passing mention. Respectfully, none of these sources count as "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" for purposes of the GNG.

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)

A procedural nomination after a recent RfD. This is an article about the Turkish-speaking inhabitants of the island of Ada Kaleh (that article currently has some content on "Bego" Turks, which may need attention depending on the findings of this discussion. Myself, I'm neutral. Copying the comments from the RfD:

- Delete. Mustafa Bego was an inhabitant of Ada Kaleh who had a minor historical role [18]. Apart from the first sentence, the rest of the article is all nicked from Ada Kaleh. None of the sources seems to confirm the notion of "Bego Turks" for the inhabitants, so the article is OR at best and a hoax at worst. No such user (talk) 09:01, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- One thing is strange, while for every Turkish Group from Greece, like Western Thrace, Dodecanes, Cretian etc, they have an own Page, but for Turks from Ada Kaleh is not ok to have there own Page? don't call it a hoax, in the German pdf, who describes Bego Mustafa's Life and the Life of the Turkish inhabitants etc., it is explain why Bego's nickname was transferred to the entire population. Instead for deleting, the name can be changend in Turks of Ada Kaleh Thanks. Nalanidil (talk) 11:44, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Here's the full bibliographical info for Blasen's charming paper: https://spiegelungen.net/multikulturelles-banat-i, the URL for the PDF is given above in the copied thread. My take on this is redirect to Ada Kaleh or merge into Turks in Romania. Blasen's paper only gives anecdotical evidence for the use of the term "Bego Turks" and does use not it himself when talking about the Turkish inhabitants of Ada Kaleh. He mentions on p. 18 a picture postcard from 1905 with an image of Mustafa Bego with the text "Begó-Türke". Mustafa Bego is thus (obviously erroneously) called a "Bego Turk". Blasen's comment: "Begos Beiname wird so zum Ethnikon einer türkischen Volksgruppe" ('Bego's nickname thus becomes an ethnonym for a Turkish [sub-]subethnic group'). This passing mention of "Bego Turk(s)" (which is most likely a spurious term coined by the publisher of a picture postcard) is not even the ghost of WP:SIGCOV that is necessary for a standalone article. –Austronesier (talk) 13:06, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

- As you can see the Turkish groups from Greece have ALL there own Page, here have a Look:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turks_in_Greece
- The Turks of Ada Kaleh is not to compare with Turkish-Tatarian-Muslim Roma groups from Dobruja in Romania. The History and Background is absolutly different. Nalanidil (talk) 16:35, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- Please have a Look, why i think that the Turks from Ada Kaleh should be an own Page, because they are different Theorys about there Ethnicity.
- This is in German language, under caroline insel, you can read that the inhabitants was Muslims from all part of the ottoman empire who spoke an ottoman turkish as language. see: https://www.wienerzeitung.at/nachrichten/wissen/geschichte/545006-Die-vergessene-Insel-des-Islam.html
- So this meant, muslims from different ethnicity of the ottoman empire live in this island, a similar source in english said, this turkish Islanders was a mix of arabs, albanians, kurd and turks see: https://bigthink.com/strange-maps/ada-kaleh-an-ottoman-atlantis-on-the-danube/

The site where it occurs is a former railway crossing along a side road around eight kilometres north of the town". That one is from Saskatchewan. Folkloric accounts like these are buried deeply under pop culture references, but I think there is enough to support the contention that this is a notable concept in folklore.

- It seems from this request to be spoon fed the sources that you have not looked for yourself. The tanuki/fox versus the steam train tale is very well documented, even to being in an entry in another encyclopaedia. Try looking for sources yourself on that and other phantom train folklore. Tell us what you come up with and where you looked, like BD2412 did. Only then will you be able to legitimately say whether or not sources exist. AFD is not for one person to do all the work and everyone else to expect to be spoon fed. The process requires multiple people because it requires multiple people to double check. If you are not bothering to check for yourself before making assertions about what sources exist, as you just did twice, you aren't putting the process and deletion policy into action. Policy is clear that the criterion is whether sources exist to build an article, and that attempts to find them have been made. Show that you are putting some effort in.

- Nonsense. You were asking for sources without putting one single whit of effort into looking for them, per policy, and reporting what you found, yourself. AFD isn't helped by people who just don't do that, and that's not a personal attack, it's a statement of what you should be doing and clearly are not. Put the effort in. If there's no sources, show that you looked. If there's one source and you want others, lift a finger to see whether there are. We are not here to do this work for you, and AFD, which relies on multiple people cross-checking, is not served by what you are doing. Uncle G (talk) 06:44, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Deletedue to this being a poorly referenced listcruft BUT this totally has the potential to be a proper, prose-based article. I would be very surprised if sources didn't exist. So this can be rescued, but such a rescue would necessitate rewriting this from scratch (hence, my delete vote, per WP:TNT). Do ping me if this is going to be rewritten and I'll reconsider my vote. Unfortunately, my quick BEFORE failed to find anything substantial outside some discussion here that looks reliable but is gutted by Google Books partial view (and I do acknowledge a good start by BD2412 above). PS. I used the query for "phantom train" to look for more sources. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:32, 25 March 2022 (UTC) Ps.

- This grew in exactly the way described at User:Uncle G/Cargo cult encyclopaedia article writing. It was split from ghost train in 2006 (Special:Diff/79143568 and Special:Diff/79143602), and editors piled on the mentions on television and in films in the hopes that an article about the folklore of ghost trains would magically arise. Both BD2412 and Piotrus are right, it seems. Uncle G (talk) 17:24, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

- Comment On reflection I think the weakness here is in the breadth of the article topic. Tanuki versus steam trains seems to lack the multiple sources to keep as a standalone article. But Ghost train (folklore) as a topic seems to be a piece of WP:OR - a synthesis of the various individual ghost trains referenced. I could not find this broad topic on Google scholar - but isn’t easy to look up in as the term is used of real trains run empty, of abandoned railway lines, and within Mathematics and computing. So I’d still go for a merge of noteworthy material into Tanuki and possibly some others Springnuts (talk) 07:10, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
- At this point I agree that it is a WP:SYNTH of somewhat unrelated topics linked together by the writers of the article itself. Anything that talks about "ghost trains" as a whole is a different story, but as far as I can tell it is not a "scholarly" concept and just a trope recognized by fans. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:24, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

And how is it a reliable source? Even on the pages of the library is not given a source of information. Mehman 97 17:30, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, the Georgian Wikipedia is biased against such an authoritative source as the Biographical Dictionary of Georgia. I think that your arguments are not confirmed by anything, and if I were in their place, I would definitely go to court, since you will discredit the body that is accountable to the Parliament of Georgia.

A lot of people in Georgia are dissatisfied and tired of you and your biased attitude towards articles. You block all those who didn't like you and those who dared to tell the truth.

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)

I'm especially interested in whether the Biographical Dictionary of Georgia can be said to be reliable.

- 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?

I repeat that distrust of the Georgian Biographical lexicon is a distrust of the national parliament of Georgia and its structure.

- 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)
- 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.

- 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.

- Weak keep I searched and added some sources, I think the combination of the NYT article and the writing about V Smith combined to be significant coverage and are independent of the source, therefore meeting WP:NONPROFIT criteria 2, but I'm not sure it is "significant" so I'm caveating "weak".

- 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)

- 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)

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.

The article is about a non-existant rivalry between two players who don't face off against one another. They have only played 4 games against one another at this point. The only other NFL player rivalry page I've seen is Tom Brady–Peyton Manning rivalry, in which there were 17 games played by two all-time greats. Fails WP:GNG and may be WP:TOOSOON.

- Delete per nom and per WP:TOOSOON and WP:CRYSTAL. Many sources describe a "budding rivalry" which may or may not evolve into something further. A Google search shows "budding rivalries" between several other pairs of quarterbacks that never developed. Potentially draftify as a WP:ATD. The "rivalry" may or may not develop, but that would be at least five years down the road. As a comparison, the Brady-Manning rivalry article was created in 2014, after the two QBs already had 15 meetings including four in the playoffs. Brad Hat (talk) 15:55, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

- Delete or draftify. Interestingly enough, this article seems to suggest the possibility of an overall rivalry between the Bills and the Chiefs, dating back to the 1960's, however, the way the present article is currently constructed in focusing solely on the modern era of just Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes, it is simply WP:TOOSOON to tell if this will end up being something like the Brady-Manning rivalry or not. No prejudice against recreation at a later date if this rivalry develops further and additional sources supporting the concept of a rivalry between these two players come along. Ejgreen77 (talk) 11:00, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- The rivalry between the Bills and Chiefs does have some coverage, but it's already covered in Buffalo Bills#Kansas City Chiefs. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 12:21, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete and draftify. While this page is promising, I also agree it is WP:TOOSOON. Though Allen and Mahomes aren't divisional rivals, they may still play each other quite a bit if both their teams stay on top of their divisions, to answer Hey man im josh's concern. But as many of you pointed out, we don't know this yet, so this may violate WP:CRYSTAL. --WuTang94 (talk) 21:08, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete I'm sorry if I offend my fellow members of the Bills Mafia and/or my city, but I think it's a bit too early to cover this. Let's wait a while (1-2 years), and see what happens. But even then, that might not be necessary. With free agency and all these radical changes being made to team rosters, who knows what could happen next time these two young guys meet? Maybe it won't be a rivalry anymore. Let's delete and see what happens. Bottom line. BubbaDaAmogus (talk) 02:23, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
- I can recreate this as "promising draft" if the page is ultimately deleted. That way we can hold onto it as a draft in the event that Allen/Mahomes takes off like Brady/Manning did, or if it fizzles out like Allen/Darnold did I can request a "speedy delete" of the draft.

- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)

- André Bautier (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
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.

- Keep. If ref #2 is verifying all of the paragraph it is attached to, then that is non-trivial coverage. At the very least, the bit about being occupied by naval officers is likely verified since the book is about the role of the navy in the 1932 coup. Ref
#4#5 is also non-trivial, but I reserve judgement on whether that meets WP:RS. SpinningSpark 12:22, 9 March 2022 (UTC)- I highly doubt that the book source about the 1930s history of the Navy would support any material apart from that specific statement about Naval officers owning land in the area.

It's a real estate website, doing write-ups of Bangkok's various neighbourhoods' development, so while not nearly academic, I think it should be good enough in most cases. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:31, 10 March 2022 (UTC), 07:35, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: There's a lot of coverage, but all of it is in light of this joint project by Bangkok University and the National Innovation Agency (NIA) called "Kluaynamthai Innovative Industries District". Here's the NIA's description[24]. Several press articles[25][26][27][28][29]. Also an academic paper[30]. I question a bit whether these count as independent, as they seem to be based on material provided by the university, which is located in the neighbourhood. Merging into a new "Neighbourhoods" section in Khlong Toei district might be a good idea. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:31, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

- @Spinningspark: Did you see that very rude comment made by the editor above. scope_creepTalk 19:43, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- 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)
- Keep. It's a quite well known neighborhood with several things bearing its name, a road, an intersection, a university campus, a hospital, a banana breed, etc. Banana information can be split into a separate section. There is quite some room to grow the article. --Lerdsuwa (talk) 18:00, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

- 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).

- On purely technical grounds, without checking what else is named "second planet", this is a sort-of primary topic disambiguation, with the main "second planet" being venus and the subordinate "second planet" being mercury (planet) and could be dealt with using headnotes. 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:

- The song listed at Third planet and the Zooniverse program listed at Fourth planet (disambiguation) can be handled via a hatnote from Earth and Mars, respectively.
- Fifth planet (disambiguation) has valid uses related to a hypothetical planet that used to be between Mars and Jupiter.
- The other entry on Seventh planet (disambiguation), which goes to Five-planet Nice model, makes no sense.
- Pluto, Planet Nine, and Planet 9 (record label) can be listed at Ninth planet (disambiguation).
- Tenth planet (disambiguation) has several valid entries, though I'd drop all the items that are specific astronomical objects.

- Yes. I wasn't suggesting that we delete the others. But Special:Permalink/1061374889 says to me that we've lost something with that redirect. I cannot find anywhere else where Wikipedia had that content, not even planet#history. Uncle G (talk) 10:33, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: Philosophically I can argue that the hatnote violated WP:HATNOTERULES number 3: Mention other topics and articles only if there is a reasonable possibility of a reader arriving at the article either by mistake or with another topic in mind. The likelihood of somebody looking for "second planet" in the context of the Ptolemaic system and then confusing it with Mars is astronomically small. Praemonitus (talk) 03:31, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- The way that I see it is this:
- There are three immediately largely useless disambiguation articles that have very little prose content, no useful edit history, and nothing to disambiguate except planets by number: Second planet (disambiguation), Fourth planet (disambiguation), Sixth planet (disambiguation). Their primary topics rightly point to the current heliocentric model numbers, and most of their space is taken up by cumbersome "See also" lists.
- There is one article where we have lost stuff: eleventh planet. I initially thought about reclaiming that and building upon it, as Lists of planets#In the Solar system does not have the numberings as they have evolved over time. But planet#history has a superficial discussion of the topic that could do with a little more depth, depth that Definition of planet#Minor planets has, for example.
- I don't think that this current system serves readers well. Yes, until 1845 the fifth planet (disambiguation) was Ceres. But explaining this to readers in the form of a maze of cross-linked disambiguation pages seems a poor choice. The reader looking for something other than the main topics for the second, fourth, and sixth planets are best off landing directly at planet#history, I think. But I think that that means headnotes or some other indication in venus where to go to find what else, historically, has been the second planet. Similarly for Mars and Saturn. The other numbers, with hypothetical planets and whatnot, are bridges we can cross when we come to them; and it doesn't take the deletion tool to clean up those terrible "See also" sections. Again, the best option may be that for anything other than the hypotheticals and outright non-planets, we direct readers who want the other numbering systems straight to planet#history where there are numbered tables — no navbox, and no massive "See also" lists.

- I am wondering if there is some scheme by which these can all be merged into a single index-type page, with hatnote referring to sections on that page. BD2412 T 04:55, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- Well we already have planet#history that has several tables with the different numberings, plus the (approximate) dates when they applied (e.g. until asteroids stopped being recognized as major planets), the details of which I hope Pppery will pull out of eleventh planet that xe blanked and add to planet#history. I did initially think of a common navbox, but as above (having thought through how many rows the navbox would have to have) I came around to the view that planet#history is where readers should land if they don't want the second planet primary topic, and not second planet (disambiguation). The same for fourth planet (disambiguation) and sixth planet (disambiguation), which are exactly the same case as here with just two things to disambiguate and they are both planets by number. The other numbers we can handle separately, as and when. They aren't parallel cases, and bundling them was a mistake last time at AFD. These three are the same, and count me as having come around to agreement with Shhhnotsoloud, although I'd be easy going with redirecting these three disambiguations.

- Keep - while the sources available now are a bit skimpy, this is a century old subject from a non-English speaking country, so we would expect that not all the contemporary sources are accessible online now. Given the sources that exist, the indicators of likely notability from his bio, plus the fact that the German Wikipedia considers him notable, I am comfortable that he is notable enough to be kept. Rlendog (talk) 14:41, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep: As presented, the sources are scanty, and I place no reliance on the German Wikipedia, which over many such discussions demonstrably has a weaker standard of notability than we do. But: the references to the subject doing something so heinous at the 1928 Winter games to merit a suspension of nearly a year from the national team strongly suggests that there are contemporaneous media accounts saying why. I normally don't place any reliance either on the hoary old fallacy of "sources may exist," but it seems in this case they must. Ravenswing 17:49, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

(This is not about the text, which is likely PD as a US Government work product.)

- Delete This one is interesting - the AfD, not the article. The first criterion that comes to mind is WP:ROUTINE in that this is regular government business in implementing a public health strategy. The second one that comes to mind is WP:NOTCRYSTAL as the article lays out plans for implementation. Perhaps it is both, with ROUTINE being stronger. I am unable to find secondary coverage of this, likely because it is uncontroversial and routine business. It's also pretty obtuse (AfD is not cleanup, yes), and doesn't impart much nuance other than 'it exists and here is the strategy.' I am also unable to find a suitable merge target as there is no information out there about this in secondary sources in which perspective can be provided. Hence my !vote.

- 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)
- 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)
- 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.

A typical entry reads as follows:
- 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 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)
- 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.

- 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 • t • c) 02:41, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Fails WP:NSONGS - all the sources are from primary sources, unreliable sources, or charts and certifications from secondary music markets. In my opinion, all the information presented in this article can either be put in the Camila album article or Cabello's discography article.

Relisting comment: definitely needs more input since one potential redirect target is also at AfD
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Star Mississippi 01:32, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment, as the one who declared that this article should be redirected, I have the feeling that a recurring theme in Wikipedia is that some articles won't stop being relisted at AfD every time no one comments in the discussions like in here with Arc Alchemist series. Not enough people are interested in these things. I wonder if the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) is gonna make the AfD discussions like this more popular.«2nd|ias» 04:48, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Intel graphics processing units per 2nd Ias's second opinion. Since there's a product announcement by Intel, I think that ATD better serves WP users than draftification and would have been a better outcome to that AfD as well. — Charles Stewart (talk) 11:17, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
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)
- It's good practice for initiating AfDs, which is complicated and finicky. – Athaenara ✉ 00:38, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- 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.

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)

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)
