Taking to AFD since PROD was removed. This article is premature when two feature films on their own are not a series. No prejudice against recreation if a third one is made, but it's too soon to say whether that will happen. Snuggums (talk / edits) 23:23, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep, but rename The Incredibles (franchise), as there's a video game and two shorts. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:06, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Not sure if shorts count for anything, but it seems misleading to say something with a video game and two movies is a franchise as that term implies more content is included (i.e. shows, three or more movies). Snuggums (talk / edits) 01:39, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- It is referred to as such in the Variety article "How ‘Incredibles’ Became Animation’s Hottest Franchise" and in this Washington Post article and others. It's also pretty much guaranteed that there'll be an Incredibles 3. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:42, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Even if anybody has deemed it a franchise, let's not jump the gun on whether a 3rd movie will be released per WP:CRYSTAL when that hasn't yet been confirmed. Snuggums (talk / edits) 03:37, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep and rename per above - Even though it only has 2 films so far, the series A) is called a franchise in RS (noted above), and B) has extra content outside of the main film series to justify a separate article, in my opinion. Nanophosis (talk) 02:49, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep and rename The Incredibles franchise. The term is used in the Book description of associate products.[1] Two movies, several short films, many games, massive value, the word "franchise" is easily justified. No need for parentheses. Franchise is better than series because the franchise contains much more than just the series of two movies. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:40, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- "xxx (franchise)" seems to be the standard title format, e.g. Halo (franchise), The Matrix (franchise), Alien (franchise), even XXX (franchise). Clarityfiend (talk) 08:59, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

Appears to be a non-notable academic with one book to his name and a non-notable award from the 'Dialogue Institute of the Southwest'. Sources comprise the University student newspaper, a faculty colleague and, erm, himself. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NACADEMICS. Sionk (talk) 23:20, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- Weak keep the book is in 245 libraries, a/c worldcat, which is quite high for a book of this nature. There are very likely to be reviews, and they need to be searched for. And he wrote an article on his speciality for Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, which does to some extent indicate he is regarded as an authority. DGG ( talk ) 09:00, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete. I'm not inclined to give the benefit of the doubt. The award is not notable. The book has not been reviewed in MSM. The encyclopedia entry is a qualification of sorts, but not one of especial eminence. He is chair of a philosophy department, but then again I have a strong suspicion that Texas Tech is not in the premier category of philosophy departments. If a Texas-only version of Wikipedia should emerge, he would be a contender, I'm sure.Twitchymeatbag (talk) 02:53, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

- Delete. One unreviewed book (at least, I didn't find any reviews in GS nor JSTOR) isn't enough for WP:AUTHOR nor WP:PROF and inherited notability by virtue of being associated with a program that only looks good when one artificially eliminates all doctorate-granting programs isn't worth much. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:09, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

The result was redirect to United States Senate election in New York, 2018#Republican primary. Numerically, 8:4:2 for redirect / keep / delete. Discussion centers on whether the campaign coverage provides notability or whether this is a BLP1E case. This is a matter of editorial judgment and not something I can decide by fiat. So there is consensus not to have a separate article at this time, but no consensus to delete, which makes redirect the only possible outcome. Sandstein 10:40, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

This is in effect a test case for the interaction of WP:NPOL and WP:GNG This person does not pass NPOL, being a candidate who has never held elective office, but is the formally nominated candidate of a major party (and two minor parties as well) for the US Senate from a major state. If any candidate were to be notable purely for being a candidate, Farley would seem to qualify.
There is significant coverage from a variety of major reliable sources, but almost all of it is directly in connection with the campaign. That being a much watched and well funded state-wide campaign for a national legislature in a polarized year from a large state, there is a good deal of it. Again, if this sort of coverage can be held to satisfy the WP:GNG (and the essentially similar WP:BASIC) this would seem to be an example that would. If all this coverage is considered routine under the circumstances, the remaining coverage (see the Town and Country article about Farley's wedding, and the Resident Magazine article about her appointment as NYC Finance chair for the Republican party, both cited in the article currently) does not seem to me to establish separate notability.
There has been considerable discussion of theses issues and the sources on Talk:Chele Farley, in the sections "Notability tag" and "Added additional sourcing". I urge that the comments there be considered as if they were part of this AfD discussion.
I also call attention to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Patrick Little (engineer), where another candidate for the Senate was found not notable under WP:NPOL despite an appeal to the GNG. (Note that I argued to keep that article. I am now bowing to consensus.)
I recommend redirection to United States Senate election in New York, 2018#Republican primary. But if the consensus here is to keep, I would not be unhappy. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 22:47, 19 June 2018 (UTC) DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 22:47, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- comment Depending on how this goes, I wonder if there should be an RfC to consider a modification to WP:NPOL. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 22:54, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to United States Senate election in New York, 2018, which should be standard practice in such cases. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 22:58, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- comment I will post a more detailed defense of the article tomorrow as soon as I have time, but I would like to note that there are significant differences between Farley and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Patrick Little (engineer) as cited by DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs in that Little was a fringe and radical candidate without the support of a national party and only a single endorsement (That of David Duke's) to his name, whereas Farley has secured the nomination of the GOP as well as the Conservative Party and the Reform Parties of New York (both regular players in NY state politics), as well as both sitting and former elected officials, including governors, senators, and congresspeople. YankeesFan85 (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Yes those are significant differences, but I would argue that they made Little the more notable of the pair. That a fringe candidate was apparently doing well in polls, that a candidate was opposed by the formal machinery of the party in whose name he was supposedly running, and that a candidate could support such extreme positions and still apparently poll well made him a quite unusual, and therefore notable, case in my view. Whatever may be said, his coverage was not routine. Do not make the all too common mistake of equating "notable" with "worthy" or even with "important", YankeesFan85. To be notable is to have been taken note of by society at large, to make a significant and lasting mark on some field or area of human activity, for good or for ill. There are no absolute and clear-cut ruelks for what will constitute notability, there are merely rules of thumb, which may be modified over time or in particular cases. They are all judgement calls, on one level or another. At least that is how i see it. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 00:17, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

- Redirect until at least the election is over. In the unlikely event Farley wins, the text can be restored. 331dot (talk) 10:24, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect or Delete The coverage that the candidate has is not independent of their candidacy, which could be an argument for WP:BIO1E. The larger argument here is that candidates don't inherently pass WP:NPOL without other notability. Being an investment banker and Republican fundraiser is not notable enough to pass the muster. See Draft:Zak Ringelstein, a Democratic candidate for US Senate in Maine. If people want to be informed about their candidates, local media sources provide plenty of detailed information, as does Ballotpedia. Every election, (especially in the Canadian election articles I've worked on) there are always operatives with a clear WP:CoI who want to promote their candidate. I'm not suggesting that the editor in question has a conflict of interest here, but when John Doe Green Party wants to make an article for his local candidate who they feel has a clear shot of winning, it makes me suspicious of any entry with dubious notability. Bkissin (talk) 13:26, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to United States Senate election in New York, 2018. This is, and should be the standard practice for candidates for national legislature, who are not notable prior to the campaign. The reasoning is two-fold. First, the election is a(n extended) case of WP:BLP1E as all the coverage about a subject is within the context of the election itself. The second reason is that losing candidates are likely to remain a low-profile individuals after the campaign is over. All of the pertinent information about the subject can be placed in the campaign page (including basic biographical information, polling, and other details about the campaign). If we regularly keep (losing) candidates, there is an increased risk of Wikipedia becoming a repository for campaign material and increases the risks of vandalism (as supporters and opponents of the campaign seek to edit the page to be favorable to their position). --Enos733 (talk) 15:19, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to the suggested article per the comments above. SportingFlyer talk 15:21, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep Farley is running for the United States Senate. She also is running in the third largest state in the country, which has the #1 media market in the country, and her opponent (Kirsten Gillibrand) is considered by many to be a top tier contender for the 2020 election for President in the Democratic Party. Furthermore, as noted by DES, this year is shaping up to be quite contentious, and interest in this race will be high at not only the state and national levels, but also the international level. It is currently only June but I think it’s safe to say that there will be a lot more coverage of Farley as election day approaches. Some of you are citing WP:BLP1E, though I don’t think it’s fair to characterize a long process that has many individual events over the course of a year as “simply one event”. There will be many more incidents and stories that will occur over the next 5 months which will be covered by national press, as this will be a race that affects not only the 20 million residents of NY state, but the country of 300 million as a whole. Furthermore, Farley’s coverage extends beyond just local publications in New York. Her actions have received coverage from multiple international news sites, including the Jerusalem Post and Arutz Sheva, two major reliable publications in Israel. How many non-incumbent candidates for US elected office receive international coverage? Unlike Ringelstein who some have compared Farley to, a candidate who struggles to get coverage in local Maine publications, Farley has been covered in major national publications like The Wall Street Journal, Politico, The Hill, and Breitbart, among others. Additionally, she has been covered by many of the significant local papers throughout the state, including those both in the City as well as Buffalo, Syracuse, Albany, Long Island, Rochester, and others. I believe this is overwhelming evidence that there is significant interest in Farley from the international, national, and local press. Also, this coverage is not solely limited to biographical information. Many of these publications are interested in her beyond simply the fact that she is running: they’re interested in who she is and what she stands for, and therefore an article covering all of this verifiable information is appropriate. Again, Farley blows the requirements of WP:GNG out of the water - you do not get covered by international news publications for being "non-notable". YankeesFan85 (talk) 16:14, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment To be fair, the Israeli publications aren't actually about her, but rather about her policy on an issue important to that country, and would have been written about any nominee. SportingFlyer talk 16:50, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment It's extremely rare for non-incumbent nominees to get written about in a foreign press, this is in no way "routine coverage". I would also disagree with your characterization that the articles are not "about her". I'm not sure what else they could have said to be more "about her" as is relevant to the Israeli public as they are. YankeesFan85 (talk) 16:57, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- The Republican nominee running against Gillibrand would say that regardless of who it is. The coverage is not about her per se, but what she said. 331dot (talk) 17:13, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment This argument seems to be both circular and essentially semantics re: the distinction of whether the article is about "her" or "her views". You might presume what a theoretical nominee may or may not say, but I haven't seen examples of the Israeli press covering any other non-incumbent nominees.

- Redirect. At the Senate level, it is certainly possible for an unelected candidate to clear GNG on the basis of receiving substantially more and wider and deeper coverage than most other unelected candidates — it's certainly at least somewhat more likely to happen for a Senate candidate than it is for a House candidate or a state legislature candidate, but it's still by no means whatsoever guaranteed to happen for every Senate candidate. (And further, Senate candidates are also significantly more likely, though still by no means guaranteed, to already have enough preexisting notability for other reasons to have qualified for an article on those grounds anyway, such as having already served in another NPOL-passing political role prior to running for the Senate — so pointing out other examples of Senate candidates who got articles despite losing isn't determinative.) So being a Senate candidate is not an automatic inclusion freebie in and of itself, and it certainly hasn't been demonstrated here that she's already earned special case status. Even if we take YankeesFan's Israeli news stories as getting her out of the starting blocks toward being more notable than the norm, as it stands they're just WP:BLP1E for a single campaign comment, so they don't get her to the finish line all by themselves. Over the course of the election campaign, at least half to two-thirds of all candidates nationwide will be able to show something "out of the ordinary", such as getting namechecked in a "ten races to watch" listicle on CNN or Politico or making a five-minute appearance on Anderson Cooper 360 — so it still takes more than just one "out of the ordinary" thing to make a candidate more notable than the norm. There has to be a substantial body of "out of the ordinary" coverage, not just one or two hits, to make a candidate a special case. If a candidate didn't already have preexisting notability for other reasons besides being a candidate, then she does not instantly clear the bar just because she made one comment that got her a blip of BLP1E coverage in Israel — her international coverage would have to explode to Christine O'Donnell proportions before it clinched permanent ten-year test-passing notability in and of itself.

- Keep Passes GNG with multiple RS, including the international press. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 21:02, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete there is not enough to show notability. Those who say she passes GNG are ignoring that GNG is just not enough for media saturated cases where the coverage tends to be very shallow, which is what we see with political races.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:17, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect I don't see any coverage un-related to the election. There's significantly less coverage than for Mark Harris (North Carolina politician), Kara Eastman, or other candidates who have been kept recently. While she's the presumptive GOP nominee, no sources give her a credible chance at winning the election. power~enwiki (π, ν) 05:48, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep: subject has received significant coverage. Also, all 3 requirements of WP:BLP1E have not been met. Requirement #3 states "If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented." The NY 2018 Senate race is significant. Farley's role in the contest is substantial and documented. Thus BLP1E does not apply in this case.– Lionel(talk) 11:16, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep - clearly meets GNG and WP:BASIC bio guidelines. Other guidelines like NPOL and BLP1E are just additional inclusion guidelines to "catch" those that don't meet broader guidelines - voters above seem to be treating them as the only ones. Clicking the News search links above demonstrates significant coverage already and will only surely grow. --Netoholic @ 16:03, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

New article about a department of a constituent college of Texas Tech University. It's only cited to the university student newspaper and comprises mainly of an unsourced list of faculty. There's no evidence this department is independently notable of its college, therefore creating a standalone article about it is WP:UNDUE. Fails WP:GNG. Sionk (talk) 22:44, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- Merge the text to the College. There are now independent refs, of a sort. Johnbod (talk) 02:36, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Texas Tech University College of Arts & Sciences. The only independent source (i.e. not campus newspaper) that looks to be reliable (as it's published by Wiley Blackwell) is the Philosophical Gourmet Report, but this is misleadingly represented in the entry as currently written; the source does not exactly list this as a "top 12" MA program but rather one "also worth considering" behind programs described as "the top program in the country"; four more with "very strong faculties"; and another four with "strong faculties". So I don't view this as a sufficient claim of notability nor even really anything to salvage in a merge, but it's a valid search term. Will note the college page had plenty of room for expansion to describe programs to the extent RS make possible. Innisfree987 (talk) 04:55, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

Keep - I did not start the article, but I did edit it substantially. Maybe it should be renamed to just Altogen Labs? If you look at the news sources for "Altogen Labs" it's a far more comprehensive list than for "Altogen Labs CRO". Granted, most of the sources on the current page are kind of crappy, I think a few of them warrant an article (GHP magazine is detailed). I started the Altogen Inc. page because apparently there are two Altogen's (the Inc. I think is more focused on chemicals and the CRO is more so preclinical work), but maybe Altogen Labs CRO should be merged with Altogen Inc.? The Altogen Inc. page has sources from Science and Nature (although they are not solely about Altogen) and combined with the current sources it might be enough to gain notability. I started AltoFect as well (inspiration gleaned from the lipofectamine page), but that probably isn't notable, so sorry about that. Natureium, I think the current Altogen Labs CRO page might find a spot in User:Natureium/todo, it seems to have sources of around the same quality as Aderis Pharmaceuticals, Biovista, and RespireRx, just to name a few, and I think it could be improved upon. I also am not really sure why Altogen Labs CRO should be deleted in context of other biotech companies (see Asuragen, Biotecnol, Diabetology Ltd, Esteve, etc.), and although comparison is not a reason to keep an article, I don't see why this should fail NCORP so easily. Maybe I'm too lenient and have a misunderstanding of NCORP, if so, my apologies. CarlBjornasson (talk) 04:49, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Struck sock. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:04, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

- Merge and rename - I don't think this is really different from Altogen Biosystems (where does the Inc. even come from?), and the content of both should be merged (and really condensed) into just Altogen Labs. I can make a merged Altogen Labs page (just not right now) and that might be cleaner than this mess. I haven't done much research on this yet, but just from preliminary searches, it seems to be well-known in the biomedical field and has enough coverage (I'm reading the "does not need to be the main topic of the source material" on GNG). I'll make the merged page either today or tomorrow, but regardless, Altogen Labs CRO and Altogen Biosystems (and Altogen Inc. for that matter) should not have their own pages. Where are the refs?

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
The content of this article cannot be verified by RS. In fact, a significant portion of its claims seem dubious. 1.) There is no evidence that Nazi propaganda spoke of the outcome of this referendum on the Anschluss as "Schande von Gaeta". On the contrary see the pertinent collection of primary sources NS-Presseanweisungen der Vorkriegszeit Vol 6/I.: 1938 Quellentexte Januar bis April, Munich 1999. Document 1109, DNB-Rundbrief of 11 April 1938, advises the German press: "Die Meldung ueber die Abstimmung auf dem Panzerschiff Admiral Scheer nicht aufmachen, aber gut platzieren, aber ohne Kommentar". (The news release about the referendum on the battleship Admiral Scheer not to be highlighted, but to be placed well, but without comment. (p. 381) 2.) There is no evidence that historical literature uses the expression, except for one, maybe two pieces which clearly quote Alois Hudal. 3.) The referendum at Gaeta was one of several for Austrian and German expatriates on German warships. It was not a referendum of Catholic seminarians alone. (see Volker Koop: Hitlers fünfte Kolonne. 2009, S. 129.) 4.) There are two sources which suggest that the outcome of the poll was 90% against the Anschluss. One is a Catholic Polish internet magazine which does not cite any sources. The other is an article by Robert A. Graham. He neither cites any sources to back up his claim. These claims seem dubious, because 5.) According to the Neues Wiener Tageblatt, 12. April 1938[2] 6,348 persons cast their vote upon the Scheer. 358 of these voted "No", 135 votes were not valid. Thus 92% approved of the Anschluss, which was much less than was expected by the Nazis and less than on the other warships. This was blamed on the hostile German exiles and priests. Those were called "Unbelehrbare" (unteachables). Assayer (talk) 20:36, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

Peterkingiron (talk) 16:36, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. The claim of 90% voting against the Anschluss can't be verified, and there is little indication that the event of only 90% voting for had any importance whatsoever. Sure, it could be mentioned in an article detailing the expatriate votes for the Anschluss referendum, but are there any reliable sources for that at all?

Article is about a vote among an small group of people of no importance whatsoever, and the result appears to have been misrepresented in the article. Assayer raises some good points about the article's factual accuracy.

- Family detention (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Per WP:NEO or WP is not a dictionary. For deletion or at least a redirect to a proper target, if there is one. This imparts no more than a dictionary definition - ie 'family detention is a situation where family members are detained together.' This does not discuss why the idea of family detention is notable. Being used in news sources is not establishing why the term warrants an article.
The court case (half the article) mentioned discusses a judge who held child migrants had to be released from detention centers -the holding itself has nothing to do with family detention centers.
Immigration is a hot topic, but there is no reason this article needs to exist. Again, it does not impart anything meaningful upon the reader, and at best uses synthesis to pull together sources which use the term. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 20:06, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Update in response to votes: Does usage of a term mean it automatically deserve a WP article? I certainly think not. I'm not sure what significance we can show other than 'yes, families being detained together is called family detention.' I don't see what this can offer that articles on detentions and immigration issues generally don't already cover. This seems to have been created in haste in response to controversy around the separation of families at the border. I don't know why any reader would need to know what 'family detention' means when they can just figure it out using common sense. But that's just me. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 22:07, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- I believe El Cid is misrepresenting the article's contents. "imparts no more than a dictionary definition" Is not true. User:Pharos and I didn't rip off a dictionary, and I went on to discuss three terms (all from sources which discuss the recurring issue of "family detention") used for the places where it is done. I went on to discuss a recent court case where policies regarding FD were redefined. This is a stub and should be given some time to grow before immediately targetting it. I'll add some further content to this if it might stem ECEC's complaining, but "not..meaningful" and "no more than" is a blatent falsehood.
- I don't understand how someone can say the holding of people has nothing to do with the centers in which they are held...
- Please see special:diff/846607980 I have added some new content discussing the history of family detention. This is clearly more than just a dictionary definition. I think there is clear reason for the article to exist. ScratchMarshall (talk) 20:23, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. (edit conflict) The article is still a stub and has existed for all of 2 hours. The intro actually says 'family detention refers to multiple family members being held together in an immigration detention context' - I fixed the dicdef issue before you posted this AfD. The issue of detaining families together or separating them in an immigration detention context, or choosing not to detain, is an important one globally, not just confined to the US, and this article should explore the different approaches by country. See for example Women's Refugee Commission report.--Pharos (talk) 20:25, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- Speedy keep—This is broadly covered in reliable sources, and families are held in distinct facilities. The current article is tending towards a US-only view, but that can be corrected or the article name made more specific.--Carwil (talk) 17:50, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete- his notability as a billionaire has been debunked (see above) and the article lacks reliable source coverage. The Encomium article is actually an interview, so its primary, the rest of the sources are even weaker.--Rusf10 (talk) 00:37, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. This is a tricky one, and I can see why people are !voting on both sides. There is coverage in sources, but these are dismissed as local, and that Michael/Mike/Myke Ikoku is only of local interest. But "local" in this case depends on a world view which sees Nigeria as a small community. However, Nigeria is the leading country in Africa, and is the seventh largest country in the world by population. We are troubled on Wikipedia by Systemic bias which leads us to see events and people and sources in the West as more reliable and important than those in Second or Third world countries. We do struggle with sources that are based in Africa and India, even though they may be comparable with Western sources. Ikoku is mentioned in a range of Nigerian publications in a familiar manner to suggest he is a notable figure there. One of his companies is a leading hotel listed on TripAdvisor. In terms of Nigeria he is notable. As Nigeria is not a small backward village, but a significant country with a significant population, he meets WP:BASIC. SilkTork (talk) 10:28, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- Weak delete - I did a little cleanup and read the sources, and they don't seem very journalistic. I'm also not seeing any notability in the various businesses he started, of which there are several. The flagship hotel of his group doesn't look very impressive.

- Selective merge to article on Sydney trains. As it at the moment, this article is badly typed (I saw at least one spelling mistake) and the first part is taken up with a conspicuous notice about a sandbox being in the article's namespace. However, there might be enough information to be taken from this article and merged with the article on Sydney trains. I do not think there is enough in this article to justify having a standalone article, and the notice about a sandbox does suggest that this article was created by a relatively new user of Wikipedia. Vorbee (talk) 17:01, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- The fact it had a {{User sandbox}} tag should have no bearing on a keep, merge or delete decision. I simply removed the tag. This is something I do fairly often. New editors can't be expected to be fully aware of all our procedures. wbm1058 (talk) 18:00, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- I think it is very likely that this topic will be notable. There are several newspaper articles on the new trains. However they fail to identify them as "b set". If the writer can come up with reliable sources, and not fan sites that would be good, but a merge may be needed until there is real reliable information about the name. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:45, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- Article deletion or merging is most suitable, as the information is inaccurate, and there is accurate information already on the Sydney Trains A Set page. The names are correct - the internal order was indeed known as SGT (Sydney Growth Train), the trains are targeted as B-sets B1 through B24, and I've included correct carriage numbering on the page concerned. ~Jaymie Treadwell - I don't have a User/usertalk page on here, editing as visitor only.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Randykitty (talk) 15:42, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment- While none of the sources individually show in-depth coverage but collectively they show that reliable sources, including the largest newspapers in Bangladesh, have covered it since the magazines founding. The fact that it holds official events with government agencies in Bangladesh and outside show that it has some credibility. It is the first Computer magazine in the 8th largest country in the world by Population would have some degrees of notability through having pioneer advantage and a large captive audience. A former government Minister in West Bengal, India, identified this magazine in an interview with DW as a type of Bengali language publications they would like in India. Some common sense application of policy is needed here and not an overly bureaucratic response. Look at articles on other computer magazines like MacMinute, MacGuide, MacWEEK, Windows Magazine, etc, who have far fewer sources and still not deleted or even nominated. Why the delete votes despite sources? see Wikipedia:Systemic bias. By comparison this pioneering magazine has received continued coverage from a wide spectrum of national news media in Bangladesh.

- Delete Listed sources are all minor and mostly in-passing. The !vote above makes an WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument that fails to convince me. --Randykitty (talk) 04:10, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Magazines and newspapers are always difficult to find sources. Rival publishing houses will rarely want to discuss them, even if notable, and publishing houses associated with the periodical will be dismissed as not independent. We should therefore be cautious about declaring a subject non-notable after a cursory search fails to turn up in-depth coverage. Further, there is a language problem to overcome here. I am seeing a fair smattering of cites in books and scholarly papers to articles in the magazine. While that does not in itself establish notability, I find that encouraging and it shows that the subject is more than an unnotable enthusiast magazine. This paper on internet access in Bangladesh discusses the subject and opens with "The pioneering and bold computer magazine of Bangladesh, The Monthly Computer Jagat,..." While that discussion is somewhat less than in-depth, it is more than a passing mention. I also find it encouraging that scholars are willing to declare their editorship of Computer Jagat in the brief author bios sometimes included in published papers such as Nibaran Das does in this paper, again showing that the magazine has some kind of scholarly status in Bangladesh. I know this is all very weak, but it is enough to convince me not to delete. SpinningSpark 11:10, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment I have tried to search for sources in the magazine's native language. I believe the correct search term is "কম্পিউটার জগৎ". Not speaking Bengali, this is difficult for me to assess the results, but there does indeed seem to be some in-depth coverage. For instance, there is this news item of a collaboration between the magazine and the Bangladesh Computer Society. SpinningSpark 12:19, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

- Isis Finlay (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
I am not convinced of Finlay's notability. There is no SNG for beauty pageant winners, so unfortunately we have to use the WP:GNG or else WP:ENT.
I searched the following areas and did not come up with any substantive content about Finlay, aside from her obituary.
- The usual Google, GNews, GBooks, GScholar
- Archive.org (metadata, text, and archived websites)
- Cuban Heritage Collection Digital Collections, University of Miami
- Library of Congress
- Digital Collections - The Cuban Revolution at Yale
- Granma Archives Index
- Miami Herald archives (obituary from here)
Newspapers.com shows a number of routine exact-duplicate paragraph-length reports from July 1954, reporting that she won Miss Cuba, with others mentioning that she was competing in Miss Universe. I would argue that routine coverage of that nature, limited to the time around the event, does not satisfy WP:N, which requires coverage to be over a significant length of time. (Especially since these were almost all duplicates, presumably from a news agency, which means they aren't really independent of one another). In essence, Finlay is a WP:BLP1E - she won Miss Cuba once and then never really made the news again. I don't think that qualifies her for notability by our standards. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 06:18, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

I think she is notable for of winning Miss Cuba and for being in Miss Universe. Carole King Johnson, Miss USA 1955 and Charlotte Scheffield, Miss USA 1957 only reference is their Obits; so what makes them notable if not winning Miss USA and participating in Miss Universe? Or are Miss USA winners more notable than Miss Cuba? Forgive me if I entered this incorrectly but I have not made an entry in Wikipedia in a few years. Callelinea (talk) 21:36, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Callelinea, I think you meant Carlene King Johnson and Charlotte Sheffield, if I'm not mistaken (just so anyone looking at the comment can see the links). "Other articles exist" is a common argument to make at AfD, but it's important to judge every article by its own merits and not by those of other articles. For what it's worth, I agree that the sourcing on those two articles is not great, and if there's nothing else for them, they should probably also be deleted - but that's an argument to have at their AfDs, not this one.
- Something difficult about articles for pageant winners is that, as I mentioned in my nomination, there's no specific notability guideline (SNG) for them - nothing that tells us, "the winners of Pageant X are presumed notable, the winners of Pageant Y are not", etc. So we have to fall back on the general notability guideline (GNG). Possibly a case could be made for using the criteria for entertainers (ENT) to judge her by.
- In Ms. Finlay's case, I couldn't find very much in-depth independent coverage of her, which leads me to believe she doesn't qualify under the GNG. I also found no evidence that she meets the criteria for entertainers (Significant roles in multiple notable productions, large fan base or a significant "cult" following, or unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment).
- If you disagree, the best thing to do is locate in-depth reliable sources that would show that she passes GNG or ENT, which would mean the article should be kept. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:17, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete. There's only one non-primary source here to even begin establishing notability, and it just links to a general content directory for the defunct local community weekly while providing no title or date information to help us figure out where in its 100+-year haystack the content actually being cited might be found. This is exactly why I keep getting on people's necks about the need to provide complete citation details and not just blank URLs or links to generic content directories. Something like this would have to clear WP:ORGDEPTH on the basis of coverage that expanded beyond just the local weekly newspaper, but there's no evidence of that being shown at all. It can absolutely be briefly mentioned in the town's article, but the sourcing here doesn't earn it a standalone article of its own independently of that. Bearcat (talk) 19:37, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Acton, Ontario. As it stands we have an article about an event based on poor sources. I'm not seeing much available beyond some rather routine local coverage. It's presently mentioned in the main Acton article, so a redirect seems sensible. I would say that I don't oppose a merge, but as the current article is based almost entirely on primary sources there's not really anything to be merged. No opposition if someone wants to elaborate on its coverage in the Acton article a bit. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:28, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

While the Keep !votes are more numerical I am unimpressed by the WP:PAG basis of their arguments.

Stefka probably doesnt know how difficult is to obtain old informations in Japanese. I better speak out once situation is known instead of saying false statements. He's very popular in Japan.

- Weak Keep - I would not be opposed to a redirect to Saxon (band) though he has received some fairly reliable and independent media coverage for his personal life ([5], [6], [7]), and for being a sort-of elder statesman drummer beyond his work with the band ([8], [9], [10], [11]).

- Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates for mayor of their city — and campaign-related coverage in the local media does not get a candidate over WP:GNG in and of itself, because campaign-related coverage in the local media always exists for every candidate in any election. To get over GNG, he would have to either (a) already have preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten him a Wikipedia article anyway, or (b) have his campaign-related coverage explode so far out of the ordinary and expected that he had a credible claim to being more notable than most other mayoral candidates in most other cities. But neither of those things has been shown true here (and no, the historic firsts that he will represent if he wins an election he hasn't won yet are not strong claims of specialness for a candidate, either). Certainly this will be recreatable on or after election day if he wins, but nothing here is a reason why he would already qualify for an article this far in advance of the election. Bearcat (talk) 18:03, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete coverage will exist for every candidate for mayor. That does not make them notable. Phoenix is a large enough city that if Sanchez is elected mayor he will be a shoe-in for notability. However he has not yet won the election, so until that happens he is not notable.

Delete. I believe it fails WP:Notability which begins by saying: "Information on Wikipedia must be verifiable; if no reliable third-party sources can be found on a topic, then it should not have a separate article. Wikipedia's concept of notability applies this basic standard to avoid indiscriminate inclusion of topics". I've looked in a couple of reputable dictionaries and cannot see anything that defines the term to comply with the article content.

- Keep. I've largely rewrote the article and added references - still stub or start level - but enough for an article. Diplomatic courtesy call is clearly notable - this is a key function on the head of mission level and covered quite a bit (both as a topic, and of course coverage of individual calls). There might be non-diplomatic use as well, though I'm not sure that of a nature that deserves an article.Icewhiz (talk) 13:05, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- A "courtesy call" is a fairly common English usage. Or was. In Anglo-American society "courtesy calls" were formal social calls paid to categories of people, a hostess after a party, newlywed couples, families who had just moved ot the neighborhood, families in mourning. I am frankly not sure that we need an article on this phrase. But I would oppose redirecting it to the Navy or to the diplomatic corps. Makes more sense to improve the article, since all of the uses with which I am familiar are essentially similar: a formal social or professional call that one is expected to pay. beware PRESENTISM.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:35, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Keep.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:17, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

- Support "Deficient" hardly begins to describe the problem. The criteria for a WP entry for an organization include "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." But most of the citations are the organization itself and the others are all related to various degrees. That includes its own promotion of a cruise and items for sale in its shop. Follow the citation to the USCCB and you'll find the organization listed in a table, but no significant coverage. There's a fawning profile of Keating on EWTN that I suppose is a form of journalism, but hard to distinguish from advocacy and not exactly independent. The other EWTN citation is just to a program schedule. Again, not significant by any measure. The Charity Navigator citation would be useful if the article itself had substance, but still doesn't meet the coverage criteria. Bmclaughlin9 (talk) 22:16, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

The article suffers from the same problem as with many organisations, that the main source on it is an internal one.

- Comment -- This is being used as a WP:COATHANNGER for an attach on Intelligent design. The theory that the universe has a designer cannot be proved, any more than the rival theory (atheism) that there is no God. Any claim that science can prove atheism is equally pseudo-scientific. Its argument is circular, as the conclusion is actually among its assumptions.

Subject does not appear to meet relevant notability guidelines WP:DIRECTOR because he has directed only one film. He received an award but I would say its a not a major one so It does not help establish WP:N remotely.
I would say director of a single movie is not something that would be expected to have an article on Wikipedia, unless he meet GNG as well.

WP:NCORP TUNEGO is inherently notable because they have demonstrated effects on entertainment via the media coverage on their Exclusive Industry Portal.

- Delete - Article fails to meet the criteria of a number of Wikipedia guidelines and policies. WP:NCORP and WP:CORPDEPTH are both left unmet due to a lack of in-depth, independent coverage. Note that the vast majority of the sources cited by the article are press releases ("Startup/IPO Tunego raises X amount of money" as a hypothetical) announcing funding, which is an issue as Tunego does not (per WP:NOTINHERITED) inherit notability from its investors nor artists using it, and press releases do not fulfill WP:NCORP's criteria for valid sources. Per the nominator's point, the article is also awash with churnalism and corporate spam, as could probably be expected given that it was created by a disclosed paid editor. Note also that the sources cited indicate that, as of May 2018 the company has raised around $13 million, which is a trival amount when compared to other companies; this raises WP:MILL issues as the company does not denote why it is notable when compared to other similar companies, and WP:TOOSOON needs to be considered as the company is relatively small and still considered a newcomer to the industry.--SamHolt6 (talk) 18:24, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Unmitigated, paid-for spam. A classic example of what the encyclopedia is not for. This company has done nothing to demonstrate significance or importance.

- Delete, for the same reasons as were given by everybody except the creator of the article in the previous discussion. There was no evidence of satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines when that discussion took place, and there is none now. References are not independent sources, or do not give substantial coverage, or both. Four of the references are merely announcements of an appointment in trade publications and similar, and they contain substantial amounts of text which sentence by sentence gives slightly paraphrased copies of the same statements: clearly merely four write-ups of the same press release. There are web sites which exist largely (or in some cases even entirely) by publishing paid for write-ups of press releases in this way, and presenting it as though it were independent journalism. Other references are no better, including, for example, a mere list of Kelly-Clyne's works, and one of them doesn't even mention him at all. This article is a good example of one of the problems caused by paid editors who come here to use Wikipedia to promote their clients. In such cases there is a severe conflict of interest, as the editor has a vested interest in trying to get the article accepted, which conflicts with the interest of trying to make sure that content follows Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If this discussion ends in delete, as the first one did, I hope the editor will now accept consensus, rather than creating an article to publicise his or her non-notable client for a third time.

- Deseret News, while certainly reliable, is affiliated with LDS at one remove (complicated ownership) and, therefore, additional sources are needed. Publications published by LDS may be reliable, anc can be used to build an article, but are not independent and do not establish notabilit. The reason for my delete opinion is that that single sentence in Deseret was the only hit I got in a Proquest news archive search.

- Delete - TL;DR: fails GNG, etc. Traditionally, bishops of major denominations "are notable by virtue of their status", even if sourcing is from that denomination. LDS bishops are specifically excluded from that, however (disclaimer: not a Mormon, may contain inaccuracies):
- Ref Priesthood (LDS Church), LDS bishops < area authorities (Quorums 3+) < general authorities (Quorums 1-2) < Apostles < First Presidency
- The general authorities exercise administrative and ecclesiastical authority. Area presidents are general authorities
- Seventies consist of Quorums of up to 70 members aged 55+. Members of Quorum 1 are appointed for life but may go emeritus at 70. Members of Quorum 2 serve until release (but generally for 5-7 years, which would take them into their 60s) -- but may be promoted from Quorum 2 to Quorum 1
- The LDS currently has ~109 general authorities, at a ratio of ~1 for every 135K Mormons (about 15m LDS members). There's about 1 bishop for every 250K Catholics, or 1 bishop for every 100K Anglicans, so this is a comparable ratio for general authorities, but not for area authorities.
- There's thus a case to be made that (while other denominations' bishops retain de-facto notability) some level of the LDS hierarchy should treated equitably and endowed with the same status. This is probably the general authorities of Quorum 1 and above, though perhaps Quorum 2 as well for simplicity.
- The area authorities of Quorums 3+ and below, however, should be considered to have no presumed notability, and would need to demonstrate that they meet GNG or an SNG. No evidence has been provided or found that the article's subject does. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 13:51, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

I tagged this article for proposed deletion and I was surprised that Atlantic306 removed the tag based on the rationale that Davis's 1972 book Peirce's Epistemology has about 100 citations on Google Scholar. A mere 100 citations of only one book since 1972 does not make him "highly cited", which is one of the notability criteria for academics. Also, that was Davis's last book even though he was an academic for another 40 years. Here is my original rationale for proposed deletion, which is still valid: I was reading a book by this article's subject, William Hatcher Davis, and I decided to look him up. His obituary in the Elk Valley Times indicates that he died a year ago. I was about to add his birth and death dates to this article, but then I noticed that the article has been tagged for notability since February 2010. After some more research, I could not find any information that indicates that he meets the notability guidelines for academics. Therefore, per WP:DEL8, it is time for this article to rest in peace, just like Professor Davis. Biogeographist (talk) 19:17, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

- Comment - Davis may meet notability requirements for an author based on reviews of his works. I do not have access to these reviews of The Freewill Question, but here are the citations : Exner, K. (1972). Davis william H.: "the freewill question" (book review). Meisenheim: Anton Hain, etc. and The freewill question (book review) (1973). . Madrid: Facultades de Filosofía de la Compañía de Jesús en España. And one for his more cited book Peirce’s Epistemology [25]. The common names of these books make them hard to search in databases...maybe others will have better luck. If this survives AfD, this link may help fill some biographical details [26]. Thsmi002 (talk) 22:01, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: It's worth pointing out that the reason why Davis's 1972 book Peirce's Epistemology has about 100 citations on Google Scholar is because the book's subject, Charles Sanders Peirce, is a notable philosopher who has been influential in multiple fields. Those who are citing the book are writing about Peirce, not about Davis. Biogeographist (talk) 23:29, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

- If they're talking about what Davis said about Peirce, then it counts in Davis' favor. That's one of the big themes of WP:PROF: academics can be notable through their work, as evidenced by citations and other indices, even if people don't lavish biographical attention on them. XOR'easter (talk) 21:59, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
- I've examined a sample of the sources that cite Davis's Peirce's Epistemology, and it appears to me that the sources that cite Davis's book are citing it as a secondary source on Peirce, or as an example of a book covering a certain topic in Peirce's work, not as an example of Davis having contributed original ideas that are widely discussed, which is the point of Criterion 1 of WP:PROF. Any one of many other secondary sources could be cited in place of Davis's book; see, e.g., McKaughan, Daniel J. (October 2008). "From ugly duckling to swan: C. S. Peirce, abduction, and the pursuit of scientific theories". Transactions of the Charles S. Peirce Society. 44 (3): 446–468 (449).
Other examples of the Generative Interpretation include Nickles (1985) and Joseph Brent's (1998) biography of Peirce, which emphasizes Peirce's idea that abduction is a form of guessing by which we come up with explanatory hypotheses to be tested. This approach is also found, to varying degrees, in Davis (1972), Shanahan (1986), Roth (1988), Turrisi (1990), and—despite more attention to economic considerations—Brown (1983).
Biogeographist (talk) 22:46, 24 June 2018 (UTC)- In principle, he wouldn't have to have provided novel ideas; if his book were regarded as a definitive text on Peirce scholarship, then that would count in his favor under WP:PROF#C4. However, I can't find any evidence that this is the case in this particular instance. XOR'easter (talk) 22:21, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
- It's a hypothetical at this point since none of the criteria in WP:Notability (academics) appears to apply in this case, but if by "text" you mean a "textbook used in courses" (per Criterion 4:
widely used as textbooks (or as a basis for a course) at multiple institutions of higher education
) then Criterion 4 would apply. Biogeographist (talk) 11:23, 26 June 2018 (UTC)- Yes, I think that if Davis' book were widely used in university philosophy courses, then WP:PROF#C4 would apply. However, I do not think that is the case, so as you say, it's all hypothetical at this point. XOR'easter (talk) 14:41, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

- Request for clarification. The article doesn't state anything about this in its body text, but it's been categorized in Category:Uttar Pradesh MLAs 2017–22. I don't know nearly enough about Indian politics to know whether this is a badly written article about an incumbent MLA that just needs to be repaired to put the basis for notability where it belongs, or whether the creator just copy-pasted another article as a "template" and failed to remove the irrelevant categories. Can somebody with better Hindi or Urdu language skills than mine verify either way? If she is an MLA, then it's a keep with refimprove because she would pass WP:NPOL #1 — but if she's not, then it's a delete as the position the body text does claim for her is not an "inherently" notable one and the sourcing (comprising glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage of other things, not coverage about her) isn't getting her over WP:GNG.

Article was previously deleted by User Callanecc (talk · contribs) for not being notable per a PROD nomination by User BU Rob13 (talk · contribs). Article was recreated by User Mayamaya7 (talk · contribs) immediately after Tap Tap Revenge 2 and Template:Tap Tap series were nominated for deletion per the same notability issues. Previous articles Tap Tap Revenge 3, Tap Tap Revenge 4, Nine Inch Nails Revenge, and Nirvana Revenge have all been deleted or redirected per lack of WP:Notability and WP:Reliable Sources. User Mayamaya7 (talk · contribs) restored all of these around the same time without consensus, and they are all now back to redirects thanks to User Polyamorph (talk · contribs).
I also propose deleting Tap Tap Revenge 2 and bundling it with this AfD. It currently has a separate AD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tap Tap Revenge 2. Also of note is the Tap Tap Series Template which is also up for deletion at Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2018_June_16#Template:Tap_Tap_series.

- Bundling only makes sense at the outset when the articles in the article group will not be discussed individually. It makes more sense to ping those who participated above to see the other discussion as well than to merge that discussion here when the above participants may or may not agree that its case is identical to the one under discussion. But this is all besides the point as these articles under discussion should have, reasonably, been redirected as an alternative to deletion before coming to AfD. (not watching, please

A BLP that lacks sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. Sigificant RS coverage not found. The article is cited to online directories, industry publicity materials, and other sources otherwise not suitable for notability. Does not meet WP:PORNBIO / WP:NACTOR. No significant awards or notable contributions to the genre. The award listed is scene related.
The first AfD closed as "no consensus" in 2010, the second one as "delete" in 2013. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:07, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

- Super strong delete This article shows everything that is wrong with Wikipedia. In the 2010 keep discussion people actually argued to keep based on sources that in the same breath they admitted were primary sources. If an article is being built on primary sources it is not follwing in the wake of reliable source coverage, but trying to forge it. I am not sure in what world of unrighted wrongs we would even want to force more coverage of pronographic performers. However, since righting wrongs is not the purpose of Wikipedia, we do not do it. Ivy fails any and all GNG tests. The sourcing on her is never reliable. I think it is high time we scapped the horrible pornographic notability guidelines and wrote some new ones that had a likely connection with coverage in reliable sources, as opposed to the promotional, spammy goobledy gook churned out by the pornography industry itself. True, the pornography articles have been regulated to the extent that the total number of articles in Category:American pornographic film actresses has actually gone down. I think it was once over 500, maybe even over 600, it is now below 400. Still, it is a huge category, and far bigger than is at all needed.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:24, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment It is time that Wikipedia reigned in its unreasonable coverage of utter drek.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:27, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment - @Johnpacklambert: I believe that 500 in a universe of 5 million articles is not a problem. I perceive a delecionism in articles related to pornography. But I agree with you that WP:PORNOBIO should be updated, maybe even deleted and WP:NACTOR changed to include pornstars. Awards can be partial, while criteria like popularity are not taken into account.Guilherme Burn (talk) 12:07, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. No eligible award wins to pass WP:PORNBIO. Lacks significant secondary source coverage to pass WP:BASIC/WP:GNG. • Gene93k (talk) 12:19, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete. Not materially improved over the version deleted in 2013. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006. (talk) 18:33, 23 June 2018 (UTC)

This is an article dedicated to a single office within a much larger university. The provost of a university generally lacks the notability to be included in an encyclopedia article as a separate entry, and much of the material on the page reads as if it was pulled from the websites for the university describing those programs. Uncrfe (talk) 21:21, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. The article looks more like a page from publicity material for the university than an article in an encyclopedia. Also there doesn't seem to be significant enough coverage in independent sources for notability. Breaking sticks (talk) 21:59, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete: Kinda sad that an admin is responsible for most of the content here. You'd think an admin would have a better handle on notability guidelines and the GNG. Superficially, there are lots of sources, but once you eliminate primary sources and touch on WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:GEOSCOPE, what you got here is a lot of namedrops and casual mentions.

- @NukeThePukes: What are you talking about? The article was mostly written by Mike Cline three years before he became an administrator. Breaking sticks (talk) 22:19, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
