Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Goa

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Goa. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Goa|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Goa. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to India.

MTV Splitsvilla season 1

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

A list of 20 contestants, only 2 of whom have their own pages, plus details of who they were "dumped by" is essentially a summary-only description of a work. This season of the show is not notable independently of MTV Splitsvilla, and there's no content here that couldn't be merged to that article.

I'm creating an AfD rather than boldly redirecting etc. as MTV Splitsvilla lists individual pages for 15 seasons so think it's worth a discussion. Feedback welcome on whether this is the right approach. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Television, India, and Goa. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:55, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1. Seasons for same show do not need to have separate pages. RangersRus (talk) 18:46, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1: Per nom. Not enough content for a stand alone article. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 18:14, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I'm relisting this discussion. Have editors looked at this redirect target? It's a blank section on this article point to the page you want to delete. You're advocating redirecting an article to just a header on an article. This doesn't seem like the most sensible resolution. How about a Merge consideration?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:31, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm suggesting MTV_Splitsvilla#Seasons overview as the redirect target for MTV Splitsvilla#Season 1 (and other seasons), and removing the headers for each season. The "seasons overview" table seems to sum up all the content that would be merged anyway. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 15:44, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1. All seasons 1 to 15 pages should be merged with necessary information. RangersRus (talk) 14:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge a brief properly sourced summary to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1 per above, nothing meeting WP:SIRS in article or found in BEFORE to support a stand alone article. // Timothy :: talk 14:01, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The sources cited in the article for establishing notability (also listed on the talk page) are WP:SPONSORED and WP:NEWSORGINDIA. The list includes articles from India Today, Outlook India, and ANI. Additionally, sources like The New Indian Express and Financial Express are suspected to be sponsored due to lack of authorship. This article was previously soft-deleted via AfD.

Delete: Being an organic farmer in the 21st Century doesn't get you notability. The sourcing reads as PR for the company, which isn't useful here. I don't see any sources we can use, nor do I find any that aren't PR'ish. Oaktree b (talk) 15:28, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Ineligible for soft deletion.

Comment @Kuru removed the Sponsored citations, which I also wanted to remove but I did’t as I want to show others. Grabup (talk) 13:45, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I was a weak delete originally, but after reading WP:NEWSORGINDIA and how both the Financial Express and The New Indian Express do not engage in any sort of analysis and read as PR-pieces (the Financial Express is particularly weak, it's mostly a WP:INTERVIEW which is not really independent on its own), I am happy seeing this article go unless significantly better sourcing (independence-wise and sigcov-wise) is found.
