- Delete: she's only written the one book as far as I can tell, and I haven't turned up anything else that would count for notability. She's not even mentioned in the one citation that's on the article now. -- asilvering (talk) 05:40, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. I found no WP:SIGCOV either (via Google Search). No Merge material (that isn't already in Wilhelm Feldberg). The one ref presently in the article doesn't actually mention the subject. There is a low chance that old press material exists that would make her meet WP:GNG. ⠀Trimton⠀ 16:06, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

I am nominating this article for deletion because its subject seems non-notable (see WP:GNG).
I noticed this article had no sources, so it was my plan to add sources. However, I was only able to find this article here (republished here) mentioning it. Additionally, because the author of this source is a former editor of The Harvard Salient, I don't know that the source is "independent of the subject".
The notability guidelines for student media described in WP:STUDENTMEDIA don't seem to make exceptions to the more general notability guidelines described in WP:NMEDIA. Therefore, because the subject of this article does not appear to have significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, and because it does not appear to be cited in reliable sources, I think the subject of this article is non-notable, and the article should be deleted. palindrome§ǝɯoɹpuᴉןɐd 03:48, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

- Delete: I'm not seeing any sources out there, one way or another (the bare handful of items I've found merely namedrop it, mostly in association with Ross Douthat). It doesn't help that the link to this publication's site is broken. The article sources none of its assertions, has never been adequately sourced, it punctures holes in NPOV, it is substantially unimproved in fifteen years, it's been tagged for nearly a decade, and violates WP:NOTINHERITED and the GNG. (Heck, it isn't even the most prominent right-wing paper on campus.) Ravenswing 08:01, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

- Delete, the previous AfD was rejected on the basis of 'bad faith', in that another longstanding publication had also been nominated for deletion. This is not a reason to keep the article now.

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 undeletion of these articles. ✗plicit 03:50, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

WP:VERIFY in question. The City of Cabuyao and its baranggays exists but these "districts" might not. WP:BEFORE search just points to Wiki mirrors. Also,
- the Philippine Statistics Authority's Cabuyao page just list the baranggays.

- Keep. It looks like an notable article. In google trends and facebook, this institute has considerable notability. There are so many schools of similar repute in wikipidia. Even the creator of this article is not interested to reply, so I can't trace it out more about this or expand or find sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ugvugvgu (talk • contribs) 12:55, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per the nominator as this is referenced to a bunch of ridiculously trivial sources that are either primary or otherwise not usable for notability. The fact that it is massively ref bombed doesn't bode well for notability either. Instead it just comes like an attempt to fake things. Nor does Facebook or Google Trends' opinions of what is notable matter here. --Adamant1 (talk) 22:07, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

- Keep If this article has no notability, almost all articles of the category https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Schools_in_Erode_district has no notability. I feel this page has some good scope of expansion. It can be made stub rather to delete. Malay231 (talk) 07:20, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete A case of WP:REFBOMB that uses mostly primary sources and directories to make the subject seem important. Secondary schools don't have assumed notability, and there doesn't appear to be secondary sources to meet other notability guidelines. WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES suggests merging with the school district, but merging with Erode District#Education seems like WP:UNDUE. The keep arguments above are based solely on WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS.

Non-notable fictional title. Avilich (talk) 01:48, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

- Keep or rename to Gerald Christian Wimsey, 16th Duke of Denver. The Scott-Giles book clearly constitutes significant coverage in a reliable source, so we are looking for a second source. There are lots of results in Google Scholar, but most are for the 16th Duke himself, rather than the title. But Gerald Christian Wimsey, 16th Duke of Denver actually redirects to this article, even though the character is clearly notable in his own right, per the scholarly coverage. StAnselm (talk) 02:27, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- I don't see how a spoof history of a fictional family constitues significant coverage of a fictional title. Avilich (talk) 02:58, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- It looks like Harper-Collins actually published it in dead tree form, so, yeah, that counts by default. I'd never really looked into Sayers before, but the amount of academic commentary on her fiction appears to rival those authors I know better--per StAnselm, I don't see a quick way to sift through all the Google Scholar references to see if there's enough, but a first pass review sure looks like there ought to be. Jclemens (talk) 08:01, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- Another work of fiction isn't valid significant coverage, and Google hits isn't an argument either. Avilich (talk) 14:21, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

- One could probably write a good article, possibly framed around Sayers' aristocracy as a whole with literary analysis relating it to the real world rather than an in-universe portrayal of a fictional Dukedom, without reading the books at all.

- This is a very weird one. I'm plumping for weak keep. The problem for keeping is (1) the current article is almost entirely "in universe", and (2) because Sayers and Scott-Giles communicated about the Wimsey dynasty, they are joint creators and the Scott-Giles book is therefore a primary, not a secondary source. But Uncle G is as usual right about the academic side of this: Sayers is an enormously important figure in English literature, and this is an important part of her contribution, so there's no question an article can exist. I don't think redirecting to Sayers' own article is a good option because too much Wimsey-genealogy would unbalance it, and because a redirect wouldn't give due weight to Scott-Giles. But were it not for Sayers' huge stature, and what her writings say about society, and how they are written about (see Uncle G's suggestions above), I'd be sceptical about keeping a load of fiction. I would like to see the article say more about the meaning of this fictional dynasty, and quote more secondary sources, rather than merely reproduce a fictional family tree - which is probably inappropriate for WP. As it is, Sayers is widely-read, and I think it reasonable that our readers might want to know more about the wider significance of her creation of the Duke of Denver, which spans more than one (notable) book.

- There's an awful lot of secondary sourcing on Sayers. After I'd found and picked out the aforementioned myself, I found the Dorothy L. Sayers entry in Janik, Janik & Nelson 2002 which has a "secondary sources" section that's about 5 times as long as my list. Then there's stuff like McGlynn 2019 , which we have as further reading in Dorothy L. Sayers and which is all about Sayers's portrayal of the aristocracy.
Per Special:Diff/62599765 the article's creator modelled it on real universe peerages, which was the wrong approach, because obviously it isn't real. Whereas Colin Watson's statement that Sayers portrayed the aristocracy sycophantically, which others have counterargued, gets not a mention. There's all sorts of things that one could say, such as the assumption by the Duke of Denver of almost a droit du seigneur, which presenting fiction as fact will not, and does not, say.

- delete - in-universe refs, no evidence of notability. Loew Galitz (talk) 08:35, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
Delete. There are no useful references, the pedigree section is wholly unsourced and is is written in an inapropriate in-universe style, and once all that has been removed nothing useful remains. The text should be deleted and the title should become a redirect to Dorothy L. Sayers for now. If anyone is able to to dig through the sources mentioned above and draft something reasonable, a new article could be created at that time. MichaelMaggs (talk) 13:31, 15 March 2022 (UTC)- Actually, there is a kernel of useful content there. If I were going to zap this and start again, I'd keep the section on the actual book character, which is easily sourceable to Sandberg 2022 . And I'd probably keep a mention of Scott-Giles, although I'd discard everything from Scott-Giles. In fact, let me give that a go. Uncle G (talk) 16:36, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
- Info: Out of interest, I checked the Scott-Giles book at the British Library some time ago, as I wondered whether the pedigree was a copyright infringement lifted straight from it. It wasn't, but that does raise the question of exactly which sources were used to create the pedigree, and whether the fictional information given will ever be checkable.

- @MichaelMaggs But the article is a possible forkish mess. It is now covering two characters, one has his own article Lord Peter Wimsey, the other does not but we do have articles on books he appears in (Whose Body?). Note that the current article has content that is relevant to the books/series but not to the characters or the concept of the Duke of Denver ex. the section on the Wimsey Papers, second phalf of the 'In Sayers's works' section which contains paragraphs on portrayal of aristocracy in the series, most of the collaboration section, th eother section which talks about 'fictional genealogies'. Considering the existence of the Template:Lord Peter Wimsey which implies we are dealing with the "Lord Peter Wimsey series", having looked into this in more detail, I think this article (Duke of Denver) needs to be merged to the Lord Peter Wimsey, which likely needs to be tweaked to be an article about the book series. On a side note, I am concerned whether the articles other characters from the series are notable as well. Some might, but some may need merger too. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:05, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
- It's not perfect, but an article with this title or something like it does seem the best place for a discussion of Sayers' collaboration with Scott-Giles. I would (now) keep the article, but wouldn't be adverse to it being renamed if necessary. MichaelMaggs (talk) 11:03, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

- Comment Out of curiosity, was a WP:BEFORE done before the nomination? I did a short search and quickly found this substantial coverage so I'm wondering if a thorough search has been done or if the nomination only based the GNG failure on the sources in the article. Alvaldi (talk) 16:56, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- That appears to be an interview, and isn't independent from the subject? BilledMammal (talk) 01:43, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- It is independent from the subject, it's a valid reference.--Ortizesp (talk) 04:15, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- Not if it doesn't include any significant coverage apart from what the subject said. BilledMammal (talk) 04:21, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- Just to clarify, I was interested in knowing whether the nominator had looked for any more sources, because if not then I was thinking about trying a thorough search as I found the above source promising. BilledMammal is absolutely right about that if there isn't any significant coverage apart from what the subject said in an interview then it shouldn't count towards GNG. Interviews often do include various statements about the subject by the interviewer which could count towards GNG but whether that is the case here is a matter of an opinion. However, all of that would be mute if there weren't any other significant sources as GNG requires multiple significant sources. While I haven't done a thorough search yet, I did come up with this one while Googling his name+nickname. I will probably do a better search tonight, right now I'm bouncing between weak delete/weak keep. Alvaldi (talk) 08:38, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

- 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

People are selected for WW on the basis of their notability; they would not be selected if they were not notable. The only reason the RfC (a very poor one not publicised in the correct places and certainly not on any way "Wikipedia-wide consensus") found that it was not reliable was because of its fact-checking, a completely different issue.

Who's Who (UK) has been considered generally unreliable ever since the 2022 RfC at RSN, and I'm pretty sure all UK ambassadors get an entry in the volume regardless. Pilaz (talk) 09:51, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete the sourcing is not enough to show notability. We have decided not all ambassadors are notable, so a source that seeks to cover every ambassador, especially one that is held to be generally unreliable, cannot be used to demonstrate we need to keep this article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:25, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete I find no sources in Gnews or newspapers. Her name turns up, back as far as the 1870s, but zero coverage about her as a diplomat. North Macedonia wouldn't seem to be a notable diplomatic post either, one small country in southern Europe. Oaktree b (talk) 00:55, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Fails WP:MMA notability criteria; doesn't have 3 fights in a top tier promotion, nor has he been ranked in the world top 10 of his division. WP:GNG is also failed, most of his coverage is through routine sporting reports. Also competed at the 2008 summer olympics but did not win a medal. ♡RAFAEL♡(talk) 00:04, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Fails WP:NMMA with no top tier fights and was never ranked high enough. He did appear at the 2008 Olympics, but finished 19th of 19 in his division. My search found database listings and routine sports reporting, but nothing to convince me that WP:GNG is met. Papaursa (talk) 01:57, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete; no indication of significant coverage. BilledMammal (talk) 01:48, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Not really notable. Many people including me never heard of this person because of a lack of notabilty. Felicia (talk) 17:39, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Extensive junior career but does not meet WP:NTENNIS. Runner up in junior grand slam is close but not enough. LibStar (talk) 00:03, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

- Keep: She meets the guidelines of Wikipedia:WikiProject Tennis/Article guidelines#Player as she has competed in Fed Cup competition before. Keroks (talk) 01:13, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- That's still an essay. Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Tennis is considered the notability standard which does not include Fed Cup. LibStar (talk) 01:19, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- There are many many tennis player articles which are based of their participation in Fed Cup / Davis Cup competition. If you delete this one, I also suggest you go through many of the other thousand articles and delete those too for consistency. Keroks (talk) 12:33, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- I intend to do this soon when I have the time. Many of these Fed/Davis Cup-only players have no possibility for any reasonable expansion. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 22:09, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
