This non-notable subject fails WP:BASIC notability standards. Source searches are only providing name checks and fleeting passing mentions in independent, reliable sources. No significant coverage in said sources appears to exist. Additionally, the article is entirely dependent upon primary and unreliable sources, which do not confer notability. Primary sources found in searches also do not confer notability. North America1000 23:49, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep We have a reference from the Encyclopedia of Latter-day Saint History a respected encyclopedia edited by multiple scholars.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:41, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment – The Encyclopedia of Latter-Day Saint History is a primary source, because it is published by the Deseret Book Company, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Deseret Management Corporation, which is wholly owned by the LDS Church. Primary sources such as these do not serve to establish notability. Furthermore, multiple sources are required to establish notability, not just one. North America1000 02:56, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment No, the Encyclopedia of Latter-day Saint history is not a primary source. We have never acceptaed that the published of a book can be used to determine if it is primary or secondary. With books, one needs to look at the whole nature of the production. This is a book with listed authors who are respected scholars in the field and you cannot reclassify it as a primary source just because of who the publisher is.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:06, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Well, we disagree about the independence of the source. However, as stated above, multiple sources are required to establish notability, not just one. From source searches, it just doesn't seem that the subject has received any coverage that is not somehow affiliated with the LDS church. North America1000 05:37, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete I'm leery about considering sources that are ultimately published by the organization as reliable secondary sources in situations like this. They can definitely be useful when adding biographical details after notability is established but I don't particularly believe that these sources make a good case for notability.

Non-notable subject. In fact, seems to only exist as an act of self-promotion by a now-banned user. PepperBeast (talk) 23:13, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete: Not notable. Although google books turns many results, most, if not all, self-published. Only one news report mention in a local newspaper. Sources used in the article unverifiable.

Article fails WP:GNG and WP:NSOFT. There is a very, very brief mention in Linux Today, but that's the only third-party source I could find, and is lacking in depth and is likely just a press release blurb more than anything. The article does have a DistroWatch listing, but given that you can simply buy a DistroWatch listing, that doesn't help show notability. Aoidh (talk) 22:53, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Almost entirely unsourced, except the subject's personal website, a national library catalogue, two YouTube links to a short video by the subject and a reading by the subject. A Google search only gives one possible reliable secondary source on him by a local German newspaper: [1], so the article fails WP:GNG and WP:BASIC. Beyond the fluff, the author does not qualify for WP:AUTHOR and fails WP:ANYBIO having won two minor prizes and being long-listed for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize once. It doesn't help that all of the contributions to the article were from three SPAs (Jabel2150, Corvuslibri, 85.176.22.138). MarkH21 (talk) 22:02, 1 February 2019 (UTC),

- Delete: I disagree about the exceptions to sourcing. This BLP article has one source about one book. Sourcing through the "External links" is inappropriate, not reliable, and IMDb is a user-generated site. If someone wants to keep all the apparent original research then "prove it" with BLP acceptable sources. The "Five pillars includes "All articles must strive for verifiable accuracy, citing reliable, authoritative sources, especially when the topic is controversial or is on living persons." Otr500 (talk) 22:16, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
- Draftify. I am finding other sources on German websites but I can't tell how material they are: NDR.de, Stern.de. I can't find anything that would be a solid RS on English sources. He seems to have more than one published work (and even his "authority control" is showing up links) which can imply notability. Untimately we should not have a BLP on WP with effectively no references (the referernce is a link to one of his books); therefore, at minimum, we should draftify.

Besides the fact that all but 1 or 2 of these references are to her modeling agencies aka primary sources, even though she won the Elite Model Look contest years ago, she doesn’t meet NMODEL.

- Gerhard de Beer (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)
De Beer has not played a regular season game for a professional sports team (fails WP:GRIDIRON), was a non-notable college offensive tackle who was not drafted (fails WP:NCOLLATH), and is otherwise a non-notable person (fails WP:GNG).
All of the mentions of him in the news fall into routine pieces about a person trying to make it in professional sports. The only possible exception I found is this ESPN article. I would argue that his South African roots and previous discus/track experience does not alone make him notable. These items would only become relevant if he plays a professional game, thus adding him to a small list of unique NFL players with this background. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 21:40, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep For disclosure, I promoted this at AfC. I agree De Beer does not qualify under WP:GRIDIRON, however, believe he has obtained WP:SIGCOV of a non WP:ROUTINE nature in WP:RS spanning a period of years and, therefore, meets the WP:GNG. Specifically:

- Chetsford (talk) 22:54, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- Chetsford, while I appreciate that he has appeared in some articles over about a year period, all of the one's you point to are routine profiles of a college athlete about his pursuit to the NFL. It really comes down to the question "does someone become notable for trying to get to the NFL just because they come from a country that doesn't routinely provide NFL players?" (in this case South Africa). In my opinion, until he makes it to the NFL, he is just another aspiring college athlete with a somewhat unique background. For every aspiring professional athlete that makes it, there are hundreds who don't, a lot of whom have coverage about their pursuit. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 23:18, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- I have to disagree. Two of the above articles are from South African newspapers, which do not routinely profile American football players. Profiles in the U.S. newspapers are not draft season articles and are therefore also, in my opinion, not routine for the type of graduating college player profiles we typically see. All of the articles are deep biographical treatments and, in that sense, I think are also non-routine for the type of college-to-pros coverage we typically see which is usually limited to draft round predictions, and so forth.

- Keep notability is a strange mistress. First, the article doesn't violate any policy that I can see/ And no, the notability is not achieved through being an active NFL player because he hasn't done that yet. Normally, notability is not achieved by being on the practice squad. Most college football players are not notable either. What makes this player notable? A clear pass of WP:GNG does it for me. For some reason--for whatever reason or reasons--there is significant coverage of the individual in reliable third party news sources. Is it because his last name is "de Beer" and that makes people joke about "de Brewski" ?? Doesn't matter... what matters is the coverage is there. We as editors do not set out to "choose" what is notable or "use our vast wisdom" to deem something notable or "get to decide" because that's personal preference (see WP:IDONTLIKEIT). Wikipedia:Notability is not a matter of opinion.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:26, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Jesus Christ. “Have appeared in at least one regular season or post season game” is the first rule of NGRIDIRON and he couldn’t even manage to do that. “He’s South African” is not notability!

- "You can have all the “coverage” in the world but you have to actually play the goddamn sport professionally." - NGRIDIRON is a notability test for subjects who fail the GNG.

Conversely, a subject who had played the sport professionally but was only mentioned once in a 1932 issue of the Des Moines Register would fail the GNG but qualify under NGRIDIRON.

- Our general notability guidelines (WP:BASIC) say that: People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other,[ and independent of the subject.

- Comment there is a good amount of discussion above about WP:ROUTINE but it does not apply here.

- Keep. Passes both WP:GNG and prong 3 of WP:NCOLLATH. Significant coverage in national media outlets like Sports Illustratedand ESPN.com, as well as international coverage in South Africa. This type of coverage is not even remotely WP:ROUTINE. Cbl62 (talk) 06:21, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. Meets WP:GNG and WP:BASIC. In addition, he very likely meets WP:NCOLLATH #3, too, due to the national and international media attention he has received.

Based on the edit history, there appears to have been a conflict of interest during the creation of the article, but more relevantly the individual does not meet notability criteria; as far as I can tell, he has won no awards, and the independent coverage of him consists solely of his name being mentioned in passing when discussing a piece of music or a musical event. -- NoCOBOL (talk) 10:06, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

The article also makes claims of notability that I cannot find sources for. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 10:07, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

- Delete I spent about an hour looking into this guy, and I can't substantiate any of his claims to the level that he would meet notability guidelines. He say he's had a gold album, but I can't find any evidence of that. He says his album charted on the NAV chart, but that was a New Age Voices magazine list which doesn't qualify under WP:Chart. I also can't find any evidence of him being nominated for a Grammy or an ARIA, despite his claims. The page language is very similar to the language on his website.

The result was no consensus. Both sides have been talking in generalities without enough discussion of specific sources. MRRaja001 and RebeccaGreen mentioned the existence of additional news articles but failed to present any actual links. Meanwhile the delete side has simply asserted lack of WP:SIGCOV even though there are several trustworthy news websites in the article already which they have not refuted.

- Comment. No, those are not signs of notability. Motivational speakers give motivational speeches, it's how why they have that job title. See the previous AfD discussion for more about this. And having promotional press releases published in a notable paper also doesn't confer notability. --bonadea contributions talk 09:58, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment I have started cleaning up some of the most promotional text, and have removed several sources that were entirely promotional or else trivial mentions in articles about other subjects. There is one thing that has changed since the previous AfD, and that is the fact that he has received a honorary doctorate - the problem is that I'm not quite sure of the status of such doctorates in India. In Sweden, it would definitely be a sign of notability but I have come to understand that at some universities in e.g. the USA the requirements for a honoris causa doctorate can be extremely flimsy. Does anybody know the situation in India? --bonadea contributions talk 09:48, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment @Bonadea: Nice job. Little now giving notability. The university in question is a private college, the MIT - World Peace University (we should use that title - or was it a sub-group?), which is unknown to me. Again, most people getting honorary doctorates in my part of the world have lots of good quality RS on their notability – E.g. the honorary doctorate is not needed to establish notability, as the figure is usually highly notable, which is why they get the HD.

- Keep, probably. I see a lot of coverage of his talks - not press releases, but reports with bylines in multiple, reliable, independent newspapers, including the Times of India - coverage which is not currently in the article. The previous AfD ran for only one week, and had 2 delete votes (including the Nom), and one keep, and there is very little discussion in it, and none that is relevant to the question of significant coverage of his talks (rather than reliable sources for whether he spoke in the UK parliament and Google head office). I would say that he meets WP:BASIC, and perhaps WP:AUTHOR #3. RebeccaGreen (talk) 07:50, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. No single RS covered his Google talk; the main ref is his facebook page? [2]. Speaking in a company does not make you interently notable. I am sure there are many priests etc. who have given talks in companies. It does not make them notable, and particularly so with the body of RS decides not to report on the talk (which is why WPs reliles on GNG at it's core).
- He did not deliver "a talk to the UK Parliment". There is a single reference to him being "in" the UK Parliment on - again - facebook pages [3]. If you search the official "Parliment.UK" site [4], there is nothing on Gaur Gopal Das. Maybe he spoke to a few MPs in a small room, but the essence of this is a fake claim.
- I can't find a single article on the subject in a material RS. No independent bio article, no independent book on him, no appearance on a main tv network, no chapter in an independent book. Nothing. Only passing references to his talks/PR campaigns to promote himself as a guru.
- In addition, there is not even a "contrived" case that he meets as NAUTHOR – unless we assume that anybody who writes their own book which is discussed in non-RS (e.g. fans, his blogs etc.), is now a valid BLP? Britishfinance (talk) 09:35, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete after some careful consideration. His talks are not notable (again I refer to my rationale for that in the previous AfD - I know that had very low participation but it seems like a waste of time to repeat my arguments, which are identical). There is no significant coverage in independent sources. And I've arrived at the opinion that the honorary doctorate doesn't confer notability on its own given the fact that the awarding institution is not allowed to call itself a university, and as Britishfinance points out, in almost all cases where a honoris causa doctorate is notable, the person receiving it was already notable. --bonadea contributions talk 09:50, 17 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment But she didn't list any sources? AfD only works if people list RS so they can be debated. GNG is not about proving "existance", it is about "notability", and in that regard requires "several significant independent RS". At the moment, we don't even have one. Otherwise, it is just a vote (which it is not meant to be). Britishfinance (talk) 12:36, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

There is not a single significant material RS "on him" (of which he is the subject), which is why none of the keep votes have produced any (despite other editors going through in detail above).

- @69.160.30.58: @Ratherfel: Because you just joined Wikipedia today, and your first edit is to make a proper formed entry on the AfD section (and know how to substitite "Ratherfel" for your IP-address in signatures), you may not realise that AfD is not a vote (see banner above). You must provide arguements that meet WP:PNG. You should also be aware of WP:SOCK. We have a subject (and his followers) who are trying to use Wikipedia to improve his notability (because he has not been the subject of any significant WP:RS as a subject). However, in Wikipedia, is it the other way around. Britishfinance (talk) 09:44, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
- Note to Closer. Please read the above carefully. Any claim of notability that this charachter has (as per the first AfD) is either faked (that he "addressed the UK parliment"), or not from an WP:RS (there are plenlty of follower blogs/facebook junk), or not relevant to WP notability (e.g. giving a talk to a group in Google, which no RS reported on). There is a WP:SOCK element here and "Keep" votes based on ILIKEIT (or contrived interpritations of NAUTHOR) vs. WP:PAG. BLPs with a strong COI/PROMO aspect should not be "contrived" cases.

Most of them are junk, but he does have a reasonably notable profile in Billboard, but the fact it is an interview consisting of him talking about his aspirations gives me pause.

OpenTimestamps does not make use of novel techniques to perform its tasks; the main idea behind it can be found in this paper Improving the Efficiency and Reliability of Digital Time-Stamping, D. Bayer, S. Haber, W.S. Stornetta, 1993 (which is itself cited in the Bitcoin whitepaper), with the main difference that instead of using newspaper advertisment it uses a Bitcoin transaction (or something else, as the project tries to be more abstract). In addition OTS aims to perform a single task, making it easy to embed it in other services (e.g. timestamp database logs, timestamp git commits), but also too simple to raise academic interest. Due to these reasons, it is not simple to submit an academic paper with OTS as a topic or to start a PhD with it as a subject.In my opinion, OTS is notable and this article is relevant as it provides a high-level description of an open-source software which brings users with a new possibilty: to easily create and independently verify timestamps of their data without the need to trust the timestamp server. In the use cases section there is a list of relevant use cases enabled by OTS.Would the lack of reliable academic papers citing OTS be enough to delete the page?In which ways should this article be improved to avoid deletion?Should it be more adherent to the style guidelines?Thank you in advance. --LeoComandini (talk) 10:21, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

- Keep: OpenTimestamps is notable for a Wikipedia article. It provides a robust decentralized timestamping format, and it is already used by many notary services and companies.There is already an academic paper which has been reviewed by a Senior Research Fellow at University of Tallinn. Additionally, the article at NASDAQ provides a simple technical perspective of OpenTimestamps and may also be considered a reliable source. --FrankAndProust (talk) 10:24, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete On the topic of GNG:
One reference looks to be independent - astrazeneca,but all the other material looks to be written by our subject or released from the organisation founded by the subject. Accademic notability is absent, and even appearance in a top 100 of a small group is not a great claim of importance. Doing a Google search reveals the same references we already have, and a big bunch of solcial media, a significant sign of not being notable. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:34, 27 January 2019 (UTC)- @Graeme Bartlett: - Astrazeneca is not independent- it's her employer.

- Keep I have noticed a tendency for new articles to be nominated for deletion (or even PRODded) very quickly. This article is one week old. The subject's inclusion in a Top 100 BAME leaders in technology dates from just over 2 months ago. The article includes sources like the Financial Times, the official blog of the Institute of Chemical Engineers, and the Inclusive Boards website profile of her, indications that she has gained notability, and is a likely subject for searches. I would prefer to tag the article for notability and more sources, as per WP:BEFORE C2 and C3. The two months that have passed since her inclusion in the Top100 list is not enough time for many scholarly journals to publish anything about it. Some may say it's too soon to include her, but an alternative viewpoint is that Wikipedia can be too quick to delete. Another alternative to deletion would be draftifying or userfying - that would enable the creator and/or other editors to add other sources as they are found.

- Delete. Clearly not notable - is not close to passing any SNG or GNG. Being named in an ethnic-specific top-100 in a sector-specific list is not an indication of notability nor a significant award. The sole usable reference is the article (disregarding blogs and non-independent sources (e.g. her employer, and an organization she's involved with)) is the FT article (a list of "top 100 BAME in tech") which contains a single line about Payne in the middle of the list -
"Kayisha Payne Founder, BBSTEM Associate Scientist II, MedImmune Female"
- so clearly fails WP:INDEPTH. Given the clear lack of multiple reliable, independent, in-depth, secondary sources - an article on this subject can not be developed while adhering to WP:V, WP:NPOV, WP:BLP, and WP:NOTSOAP. Icewhiz (talk) 09:40, 5 February 2019 (UTC) - Delete I'm not seeing indications of notability as a scientist or by meeting WP:GNG. As a scientist, her job title is a seemingly unimpressive "Associate Scientist" and, more importantly, I can't find a single reference of her in Google Scholar. In terms of meeting WP:GNG, my own search doesn't find any significant independent coverage. The references in the article consist of something from her company, a short resume from inclusiveboards.com (reliability?), a blog, something from the organization she started, and the listing of her in the FT's article about the list they created (and that's is not significant coverage). This article, at best, seems WP:TOOSOON and claiming notability for founding an new organization that launched last August is both too soon and WP:BLP1E. Papaursa (talk) 05:19, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

She is a sort of poster child for minority-women-in-STEM, but even here she has no serious or significant claim to notability. I strongly suspect ever editor at Wikipedia of having a strong bias in favor of minorities and women making STEM contributions and of having STEM careers open to everyone. That does not mean that being listed as one of the top 100 black and minority ethnic leaders in technology in the UK in 2018 + notability. It means that the UK has an embarrassingly low number of black and minority ethnic scientists.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:19, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete though I am not opposed to it being a draft. I tried searching for research papers/citations but I am unable to find (which could be plausible if the person is not an academic/educator). When I look for sources, there is a mention on a list in Financial Times, but it is among many other names and doesn't offer significant coverage. Lists such as "top x people of y ethnicity in z field" are often published by many media houses and it is unclear how selective they are. Other than this, I am drawing much of a blank for independent third party coverage. I think the person could become notable in the future, but at this time there are very few sources which provide significant coverage.--DreamLinker (talk) 20:17, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. I think this is hype over substance (and this is not a media-BLP, but a science/academic BLP). Her WP:GNG criteria and her WP:NPROF are effectively zero. I don't know if Astra Zeneca's HR marketing department is at work here but if she hadn't appeard on this top 100 list (however it was constructed), she would be a strong WP:A7 candidate. WP:TOOSOON implies that she is on an academic trajectory, but apart from being an "associate scientist" in AZ, there is no tangible evidence of even such a trajectory?

- Keep, with edits! (Author) Hi all, writer of the article here. Thanks for your thoughts and feedback. Wrote this article as a start to flesh out the Education in Hong Kong/China category. As Matthew hk pointed out tutoring schools and British Council are quite notable in Hong Kong even if they don't always meet the GNG criteria. It's a hugely influential industry in the city and Eureka is notable in the education sector here especially amongst local schools. I welcome suggestions to remove anything that sounds promotional.--Funkymonkeyinthesun (talk) 09:53, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment Pi314m That sounds like a good idea as the technology is likely notable (presuming that there is no existing WP article on this), and it could include discussion around the companies in the space. I find myself recommending on AfD often that older articles, where the sources have dried up for a decade, it is better to consolidate articles around a main theme. It is most likely as time goes on that such consolidated articles will survive, whereas individual weak cases will get deleted and and useful history/references lost.

- I oppose a merge, as articles on technologies are not used to house information on the companies, as it's undue promotional details. I removed the corporate overviews for the two companies: diff.

Someone will make the right-decision as long as your give specific reasoning on why the content ought to be chopped off. As an example:
- I saw "zirconia is metal free and is biocompatible" in the old version at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Root_analogue_dental_implant&oldid=880308366
- Then, I gave my independent thought. I said "Conventional titanium is biocompatible too, thus I find this sentence to be boasting".

Revised to Keep on RebeccaGreen's post.MarkH21 (talk) 21:18, 3 February 2019 (UTC)- Re-revised back to Delete after realizing that the Architectural Review is a magazine and not an academic journal, so the subject does not qualify under WP:NACADEMIC #8. MarkH21 (talk) 19:03, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Architectural Review has been published since 1896; Slessor has been its editor (I have just added as a reference 'Catherine Slessor: a trailblazer in male-dominated industries.': "As the editorial torch is passed, we look back at the career of Catherine Slessor and the AR under her leadership." (Tom Wilkinson, The Architectural Review, 2015)). She therefore meets WP:NACADEMIC #8 "The person is or has been the head or chief editor of a major, well-established academic journal in their subject area." (She may meet other criteria too, but only one is needed.) Note that WP:NACADEMIC states: "This guideline is independent from the other subject-specific notability guidelines, such as WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC, WP:AUTH etc. and is explicitly listed as an alternative to the general notability guideline." The article could certainly be expanded, but the subject does meet notability requirements. RebeccaGreen (talk) 23:01, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:JOURNALIST. She is an MBE specifically for "services to Architectural Journalism". (p. 80) — Preceding unsigned comment added by LovelyLillith (talk • contribs) 19:22, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- My impression is that being an MBE is not typically regarded as significant enough to merit notability. See Wikipedia talk:Notability (awards and honors). MarkH21 (talk) 20:40, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- My point isn't just that she has an MBE, it's that her work is recognized as so outstanding in her specific field, that it is recognized as such by people/an organization that has nothing to do with her field. Per this, it states "They are now awarded for prominent national or regional roles and to those making distinguished or notable contributions in their own specific areas of activity. The honour of an MBE, in particular, can be given for achievement or service in the community." LovelyLillith (talk) 21:42, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- But recognition by those outside of her field is not one of the points of WP:JOURNALIST, and the MBE itself is insufficient for #1 of WP:ANYBIO.
- Regarding the actual criteria of WP:JOURNALIST, I'm not convinced that she's regarded as an important figure in her field by others in her field (#1 in WP:JOURNALIST). She hasn't received any awards for journalism (nor architecture) and the only mentions that anyone can find of her work are
- 1. an article in the magazine of which she was editor about her leaving the editorship
- 2. five book reviews (the existence of which do not mean the author is considered important), one in print on "See-through houses" on which I cannot find any other recognition and four on "Eco-Tech" which is self-described as a survey book and which the only digitally-available review calls an "introduction" with "rather limited information on each project."
- There simply isn't any evidence of independent recognition within her field that anyone has been able to find. MarkH21 (talk) 22:09, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment I'm a bit confused here as a lot of what's being stated is totally unsubstantiated by independent sources. Virtually nothing that anyone has included is independent (including the piece written by her own colleague.) I would expect for someone so "prominent" in their field, there'd be readily available sources to support such statements. As far as the NACADEMIC claim, I'd suggest revisiting that statement because that's a massive stretch.
This is definitely borderline at this point and I'll gladly withdraw but independent sources absolutely need to be added. Praxidicae (talk) 19:27, 4 February 2019 (UTC)striking per MarkH21's evaluation. Praxidicae (talk) 22:33, 4 February 2019 (UTC) - Comment I have looked at Architectural Review again. While it's true that it's not an academic journal, it was indexed by Scopus during the time that Slessor was editor. Many notable people have edited it or contributed to it. It does seem to be an influential and respected publication in the field of architecture and urban design. (I note also that some titles which Wikipedia considers magazines, Scopus considers journals, and vice versa, although that is not the case with Architectural Review). I don't know how we find sources, other than book reviews, from within her field that are totally independent, but there is a tribute to her in another architectural magazine/journal, and, in Architectural Review, tributes from such notable people within her fields (architecture/architectural writing) as Norman Foster, Nicholas Grimshaw, Tom Dyckhoff, Sou Fujimoto, Hugh Pearman, and Roger Zogolovitch. I have found reviews of all four of her books named in the article, and I have added those references. If being a respected editor of a notable magazine is not sufficient, she certainly meets WP:NAUTHOR. RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:51, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
- The quantity & praise of book reviews, citations, etc. would serve as independent sources, my qualm was just with the fact that the magazine article was coming from her magazine (i.e. her employer) which is not independent. The new reviews and these tributes would certainly merit notability by WP:NAUTHOR. I can't see the article containing those tributes though, as the link directs to an Australian government login page. — MarkH21 (talk) 18:26, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
- Per WP:SOURCEACCESS, "Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access." I have access through the National Library of Australia; other editors will have access to Ebsco, Gale and other databases through other subscriptions or institutions. I can add some of the words of tribute, though others will still have to WP:AGF that they are actually in the sources quoted. RebeccaGreen (talk) 21:47, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oh certainly, I was just remarking that I cannot personally verify the content of those sources right now. — MarkH21 (talk) 19:58, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

As per WP:BEFORE source searches, including several custom searches, it appears that this blog fails WP:WEBCRIT. Other than this source, source searches are providing passing mentions about what people have written on the blog, and name checks, but no additional significant coverage about the blog itself has been found. Multiple independent, reliable sources that provide significant coverage are required to qualify notability, not just one. Additionally, the many primary sources in the article do not confer notability. North America1000 18:17, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- The subject may well get through the general notability guideline, but does not appear to pass any of the criteria of WP:PROF. He is "only" a postdoctoral fellow, and his citation record, while excellent for someone of his age, doesn't yet seem to be enough for WP:PROF#C1 in this highly-cited field. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:00, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. Indeed, the subject does get through the general notability guideline. If you check the criteria for WP:PROF, he is requested to meet “only” one of nine criterions. The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources. WP:PROF#C1 can also be satisfied if the person has pioneered or developed a significant new concept, technique or idea or solved a major problem in their academic discipline. The subject has developed a medical scale that is widely attributed to him, as evident in Forbes, GEN Bio News, national and international sites. The scale helped solve a major health challenge in treating victims of cluster munitions.Lebsci (talk) 17:18, 26 January 2019 (UTC) — Lebsci (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Soft Keep. The subject does qualify for WP:GNG, but almost all of the sources are essentially about the fact that he was on Forbes' 30 under 30. The article does seem over-developed and over-detailed for his actual contributions to science. His actual academic achievements are not notable and do not meet WP:PROF given the lack of recognition by the academic community (to which Forbes, Al Maktoum Global Initiatives, etc. do NOT belong).

There was discussion of a redirect that gained some traction, but I consider it to be short of reaching consensus here. Nothing prevents an editor from boldly creating the redirect if desired.

- Relationship gossip. Sexual escapades. A club appearance. It’s no coincidence that other language translation articles also have 0 sources, including the Dutch one.

The best English-language source I could find online was this, and while I can't say for the Dutch-language sources, if it's just "celebrity gossip" then I hardly think that makes for a credible claim of notability.

- Feel free to count my !vote as delete. I don't feel that the article or its edit history are worth preserving given the complete lack of reliable sources, though I do think that once deleted the page should be recreated as a valid redirect to Big Brother (Dutch season 3). PC78 (talk) 01:26, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Complete lack of independent sources. Add sourced content about her at Big_Brother_(Dutch_TV_series) yes, but nothing here is reliably sourced. Also, the actual content here speaks to her non-notability. " the most prominent transsexual person in the Netherlands who rose to fame after competing" in some TV show. Rose to fame? What fame?? "Competed" in a TV show? Didn't even win. Possibly she has a fan base. Sources? " revived her music career "? "appearing in over six television shows"? "established a website "?

WP:OR. The article starts with a claim that "Whiteness theory is understood as a specific theory in Whiteness Studies". However that article doesn't mention "whiteness theory". In the academic research literature there is some mention of "critical whiteness theory" but that bears little relation to what is discussed here. For example the main part of this article "The Pillars of Whiteness Theory" is not supported, and these pillars appear to have been created by the author of this article. The diagram here is also unsoruced WP:OR. --Pontificalibus 08:24, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

The rationale for the AfD is faulty, and any other problems with its content should be dealt with in the article itself and AfD should not be the place to clean up articles.

- Comment - I'm tempted to call for wp:TNT on this due to the numerous issues it is facing. In addition to the identified OR, the article is American-Centric and is pretty much as far from a neutral point of view as you can get. It's possible, from the sources others have provided, that this is a theory notable enough for inclusion here, but I'm not sure that bringing the current article up to spec will be less work than creating a new one from scratch. -- NoCOBOL (talk) 13:46, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
- Move to draft space. On a little further reflection, I feel the most suitable option would be to move the article to draft space and allow the creator more time to work on it, removing any OR, as well as ensuring the POV is neutral, and then when they feel they have done this they can submit it through AfC for review. -- NoCOBOL (talk) 13:51, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

It's doubtful whether this subsidiary unit of one of seventy or so research units of the Fraunhofer Society is independently notable. It gets some routine hits on GNews, and one verifiable hit on GBooks. That short paragraph in ECHT Oberfranken is the closest to independent in-depth coverage I've been able to find.

- Keep, obviously. Here is my reasoning:
- This article in the Nordbayerischer Kurier, an independent local newspaper in Bayreuth, talks about the impact the fibre pilot plant of the Fraunhofer-Center for High Temperature Materials and Design HTL has on Bayreuth and also cites statements from high-profile people that are no related to Fraunhofer Society (among others Ilse Aigner). Thus, I believe this article meets the primary criteria for notability.
- This article in Springer Professional also talks about our fibre pilot plant. Springer Professional should also meet the primary criteria.
- This article in the Automobil Industrie, a magazine dedicated to the car industry, talks about ceramic brief disks, which we produce.
- This article in the Allgemeine Bauzeitung, a magazine dedicated to all things construction-related, goes in-depth about the security aspects of our building.
The main issue here is that they are in fact all in German, but that should still guarantee Wikipedia:Verifiability#Non-English_sources. All in all, I believe that these articles listed show that Fraunhofer-Center for High Temperature Materials and Design HTL should be kept - given of course that I (or someone else) edit it accordingly.Kub htl (talk) 13:28, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

They are 1978 articles in Category:Articles needing additional references from April 2013 among the 360,000 articles tagged. Hardly a go to place. Tagged articles go back to 2006 so the six years is not really significant or relevant.

In my BEFORE I was unable to find INDEPTH reliable secondary sources. a short-lived (4 years) small (at peak - 8 aircraft) charter company could plausibly be notable, but it is not a situation where we should presume notability.

- Comment I hate to WP:OTHERSTUFF, but this doesn't seem any different from Rice (disambiguation), which is the second example at WP:DAB. Multiplayer's primary topic is multiplayer video game, however there are several other topics "multiplayer" could refer to. A another example from WP:DAB is Football (disambiguation) which seems to fit the exact same mold. -- ferret (talk) 21:49, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment I'll go away after this but since no one is replying to me I'll ask one last question? Are the deletes for PTM acknowledging that the primary topic for Multiplayer is so strongly associated to multiplayer video game that there is zero confusion or association of multiplayer with the other articles? I disagree, but just want to understand the thoughts here. -- ferret (talk) 13:53, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Reply. No. What we're saying is that none of the entries are synonymous with "multiplayer". Let me give you an example. Consider the fictitious Abysmal River. If it's an actual river, then that's fine, because someone could say, "There's a bridge crossing the Abysmal to the north." But say it's a community. Then it's no good because people wouldn't normally refer to it as just Abysmal. The point is that people don't commonly refer to any of the entries as just "multiplayer". (Now it may be that the redirect from Multiplayer to Multiplayer video game is questionable, but that's a separate issue.) Clarityfiend (talk) 10:35, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

- Metrication of British transport (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)
This article was created as a content fork from Metrication in the United Kingdom, but never succeeded in demonstrating that it was a notable subject in its own right. The original content comprised mainly of original research (OR) and synthesis. After the OR/synthesis was removed, the only significant content left is that about the UK implementation of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS), which is new technology and unrelated to metrication, and could be merged into the ERTMS article, if it isn't already there. -- DeFacto (talk). 14:53, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

KeepCommentI find it hard to accept this nomination has been done in good faith given the history of the OP with the author of this article Martinvl. Both editors have received sanction for disruption on metrication related articles. I also note there has been a steady degradation of the article and as originally written contained a great deal of relevant and useful information.I have struck my original comment following discussion with the nominator. Nonetheless, I would still argue keep as this is a relevant fork, since information related to transportation and metrication does warrant it's own article IMHO. WCMemail 16:58, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- @Wee Curry Monster: The article was bad from day 1. Detailed edit summaries explain the reasons for any removals I made, and there has been plenty of time since then to question them or add new content. -- DeFacto (talk). 17:16, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- In response to your updated comment, the specific forked topic has not received significant coverage in reliable sources, so fails WP:GNG. Anything on transport can adequately be accommodated in the original article, Metrication in the United Kingdom. -- DeFacto (talk). 20:43, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- I can see the rationale for an article of this nature but on reflection, per Otr500, starting over from scratch may well be a better option. As such, withdrawn my keep comment. WCMemail 14:31, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
- As things stand, I'd say delete, or redirect to Metrication in the United Kingdom per WP:EXTERNALROT.
- The problem at the time I nominated this article to AFD before was that the topic did not meet WP:GNG. While there were lots of sources they were practically all primary sources (whereas WP:GNG in its definitions requires secondary sources). WP:PSTS is clear that we cannot interpret primary sources, but this article broke that rule in practically every sourced sentence.
- So far as I can see none of the issues have been fundamentally resolved since then. The article still relies principally on primary sources and includes very few secondary sources. Recent efforts to remove the OR have also got rid of most of the content, and we have no way of replacing it in a policy-compliant way - because the article still fails WP:GNG.
- IMO, the article is best reabsorbed into Metrication in the United Kingdom. Kahastok talk 21:17, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comments: There are definitely issues. I can see a fork to the transportation side (some agreement with User:Wee Curry Monster) but the article as written is a co-mingling of Metrication in the United Kingdom, European Rail Traffic Management System in Great Britain, and European Rail Traffic Management System without a clear direction. "Metrication in the United Kingdom" at least strikes a balance with the "Public opinion" section (controversy) and links to Road signs in the United Kingdom as well as Metrication opposition. This article title suggests something more specific, British as opposed to United Kingdom, yet the "Background" section uses "See also: Metrication in the United Kingdom", and I can't see a reason for the confusion. As written I also can't see an advantage of having this article and no clear way to fix it except blow it up and start over. Otr500 (talk) 13:10, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. Per nom. Article been around for a long while now and still not escaped OR (and in a poor state). The "Background" is a redo of the main Metrication WP article. The "Road" is tiny (and captured in Metrication). The "Rail" is about "Pan-European signalling systems", which really forms the bulk of text in this article and is not per-se exclusively about Metrification. Situation unlikely to change and no evidence that this is a standalone topic from the main Metrication in the United Kingdom. At minimum a WP:NUKEIT, but I think this topic is also poorly formed, hence delete. Britishfinance (talk) 01:47, 17 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment: I would dispute that some of the "Keep" users are sock puppets:
- The following are all users with a considerable history of contribution to the project, and with too many contributions for me to consider it likely that they are merely a sock puppet:
- USER:Computerjoe - now inactive
- USER:ST47 - admin
- USER:Angelbo - now inactive
- USER:Tony Fox - now inactive, admin
- USER:Fairsing - now inactive
- USER:Bluedustmite - now inactive
- There are only two users who are almost certainly sock puppets, USER:Bov and USER:Gazpacho, and also one that I consider possibly a sock puppet, though probably not, USER:Drett - though it does also appear that they hold some... questionable... political views.
- With all that said, taking a quick gander at the sources suggest that the subject is not notable, but I won't vote unless I get the chance to look in more detail. -- NoCOBOL (talk) 13:16, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment The section 'Press coverage' looks like a weird way to attempt to establish notability. If the mentions contain useful information you would imagine they be used in the body of the text. Also, if you look at the CSPAN ref, which is a hosting site and therefore primary, it indicates the information on the page isn't even correct. the organisation has two founders, one of whom isn't on the page.

- Delete leaving aside the sockpuppet overpopulation problem with the 1st AfD, and leaving aside the fact that this is a FRINGE, conspiracy theory outfit to look at the sources. Problem is that the souces I find in searches are either FRINGE (self-published books with titles like The New Pearl Harbor Revisited: 9/11, the Cover-Up, and the Exposé, and Mounting Evidence: Why We Need a New Investigation into 9/11,) or they are mere mentions , tend to be vague, and have different sets of facts. One of the very few recent mentions in a reliable newspaper, the The York Dispatch, How a national conspiracy theory museum wound up in the 'boondocks' is about a new conspiracy theory "museum, the Hidden History Museum that is composed of stacks of cardboard filing coxes in a rented space in a disused strip mall. The files were collected by a man named John Judge, now deceased. Her's the part about the "9/11 Citizens Watch": [ https://www.ydr.com/story/opinion/columnists/mike-argento/2019/01/16/how-national-hidden-history-museum-wound-up-york-county-pa-conspiracy-theory-museum-john-judge/2582211002/ Judge wasn’t a 9/11 truther, though. Tenenoff said, “He thought those people were fanatics." He formed a 9/11 Citizens Watch to counter the 9/11 Commission, asking the questions that weren’t asked. He didn’t believe, as some truthers do, that the twin towers were brought down by a controlled demolition. He thought that was preposterous, Tenenoff said. How would they get the explosives in the buildings? Were the explosives built into the buildings’ steel frames? He didn’t buy that. Nor did he buy the notion that the Pentagon attack was staged and that a plane did not crash into it. He lived close enough that he felt it. No, all of that was distraction, he believed. He did have some questions. Were the suspected terrorists identified as being on the planes really on them? Did George W. Bush know about the attacks and let them happen to give him a pretext to invade Iraq? He was more interested in the aftermath, Tenenoff said, the loss of civil liberties, the constant state of war, the amount of power shifted to the government. “He just wanted to know what really happened,” she said. The truth, it seems, is out there, contained somewhere in the 270 boxes and 8,000 books and hundreds of audio and video tapes housed in a small, nondescript office suite in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania.]. As someone menitoned above, our article cites a different "founder". In sum, there is just not enough reliable sourced, SECONDARY sourcing to keep.E.M.Gregory (talk) 22:32, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Working on Keep. Trying to clean up the article and find better sources. Don't know why John Judge (not John Judge) isn't included. Put an external link for 4 C-SPAN videos until I figure out which is used as a ref. Here is an RTF of their 9/11 Commission Critique which concludes, "We do not anticipate that we will disagree with all the many conclusions and recommendations of the 9/11 Commission’s final report..." Still looking for"The Omission Report". There are other bad links too. Org seems less fringe and more just criticizing the process and secrecy of the investigation. If you did merge, maybe Criticism of the 9/11 Commission might be a better article. StrayBolt (talk) 21:58, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. Some coverage here at Scoop.co.nz, Wednesday, 24 March 2004, 10:00am - "UQ Wire: Breakthrough For 9/11 Truth On C-SPAN!" and Scoop.co.nz, Wednesday, 24 March 2004, 10:09 am - "UQ Wire: Breakthrough For 9/11 Truth On C-SPAN!" And these two ladies attended a 9/11 CitizensWatch press conference. And some of the books that reference this aren't self-published either. Karl Twist (talk) 09:00, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- No see this is exactly what is NOT going to help establish notability. This is making me think delete. The CSPAN refs are all primary because it's coverage of their own press conference made by themselves. It doesn't mean it's ok because Scoop posts a link to it which is what your two links are, a link to a conspiracy theory news aggregator page. Also failing to see how a non free Getty image has anything to do with this. If this is the best there is, then it's not notable. Mramoeba (talk) 09:19, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- Reply - I believe there is a good degree of discernment by Scoop with what they choose or choose not to publish, just as much as they do with major NZ newspapers. The Getty image is just an indication of the conference that would have been either televised or printed in a reliable newspaper. That wasn't to prove notability as such. It was more for those who want to find out about it as I don't have the time at this moment. Karl Twist (talk) 12:27, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- Scoop is not a newspaper. This is an uneditorialised press release redirecting to 911truth.org, a conspiracy theory website. Wikipedia informs us "The website publishes a large number of submitted news and press releases due to their permissive policy." All of these links are already on the page anyway as they all lead to CSPAN which is in external links. Mramoeba (talk) 13:50, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Having had some time to look at this, this is a clear delete. The organisation managed a handful of press mentions, none in mainstream sources, and the rest of this is primary, some of it disingenuously made to look secondary through the wording and reference landings (from article edit summary I removed the worst). In summary:
- 1) Primary: Own website, allowable for basic facts/descriptors only
- 2) Primary: Zogby market research was sponsored by Citizens Watch. This article is a summary of findings
- 3) Christian Science Monitor is generally considered reliable source, however this is a short article covering groups who submitted questions to the commission the adverts CW posted and quotes, there is no in depth coverage, in fact the only interpretation of CW by the journalist is "one of the groups observing the proceedings"
- 4) BBC is a mention, the entire article is 9 different reaction comments, no journalitic analysis or interpretation.
- 5) Abook which is not viewable. From the Google snippet I suspect this could very easily be another passing mention of their reaction to the report, as covered elsewhere.
- 6) Washington TIMES, wikipedia disputes reliability, "The Washington Times is considered partisan for US politics, especially with regard to climate change and US race relations." There is no coverage of CW in it anyway, just a quote from Kyle Hence.

- Comment, I still stand by my keep vote. Because so much of the media is controlled by the like of Murdoch, searches need to be done in other areas. The Getty images pic that features April Gallup and Rosemary Dillard states they were at a 9/11 Citizens Watch press conference at the National Press Club. Was it on TV or in which papers? Anyway ..... But if it leans too much toward Delete then the history should be preserved and it should be re-directed to 9/11 Truth movement and a small section be created there.

- Delete Clearly doesn't meet WP:NBOX, so let's look at the sources given for meeting WP:GNG. The Afro-American encyclopedia has 2 sentences--one that he was from Trinidad and the second says he became a professional boxer in 1945. The T&T Guardian article mentions him in passing as losing twice to one of the fighters they're discussing. The T&T Newsday article is his obituary, I can't access the "First Citizen Sports Foundation" (whatever that is) link, and the Kingston Gleaner mention is in the local sports section.

- Comment - Reply Ianblair23 I often think some of these regular contributors of the football project vote with their heart. I often wonder if they bother reading the polices or not. For-instance Hhkohh saying keep because all the articles pass WP:NOTSTATS. Except that policy isn't a pass or fail policy, it's meant to explain what Wikipedia shouldn't have and can have. FIFA World Cup is considered a top rated subject and that would include the statistics so I would hardly call that an indiscriminate article. Govvy (talk) 14:06, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep but delete or merge disciplinary pages Sigh. These fail WP:NOTSTATS as they stand. But I'm voting "keep" because data should be put in context with explanations referenced to independent sources, and these pages could be improved to pass WP:NOTSTATS, especially the coaching sections. I don't think you can do that with the disciplinary stats, though. I used to buy specialised encyclopedias for this exact type of information, which is why I think it's both encyclopedic and improvable. SportingFlyer T·C 20:49, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep statistics, merge disciplinary - Article 3 of WP:NOTSTATS says we can create a separate article for statistics, I think it means we should not have another page for disciplinary record. In my opinion, these information do not lack context or explanation, so they should be kept, and they usually are too massive to be merged into the main articles. Some other tournament articles which have less statistical details can include them and still be readable, but not FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro ones, unless we choose to remove a major part of these information.

- Keep statistics/merge disciplinary The stats pages provide a wide range of information about a major event. Many of these stats are excessively granular and could be excised though. The disciplinary stats are also more detailed than necessary and not an independent topic from the rest of the statistics.

- Weak Keep - Considering the in-article sources: New Release is a weak-fail of Sig Cov; CCM is purely an interview so fails Sig Cov, PRWeb obviously isn't independent/reliable. The Christian Beat is a good pair of sources, but is from the same source. Given that, New Release, I think a WK is appropriate, but a neutral or WD might also suit as it currently is. Nosebagbear (talk) 22:05, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Based on poor coverage. Both keep votes above cite the quality of The Christian Beat as a reliable source, but the article from that source basically paraphrases content from the About section of the subject’s own website ( https://www.laurenbeamusic.com/about/) mixed in with standard new release information. I'm not saying it isn’t third party coverage, but it does appear to be lazy in establishing anything other than what this subject has to say about herself. Investigating the website further, it appears to be a self-described “up and coming” non-professional volunteer effort with the goal to become an important voice in covering the Christian music scene, but as of now it appears to be mostly a venue for passing off rephrased press releases as reporting and volunteer reviews. Has it been source reviewed yet? If I’m wrong, I’ll consider changing my i-vote. CCM magazine, on the other hand, is a good source, but this coverage—an interview—isn’t. Other sourcing problems are pointed out by Nosebagbear (talk) above. ShelbyMarion (talk) 20:56, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
- @ShelbyMarion: hi, Christian Beat is included in this list of christian music reliable sources Wikipedia:WikiProject Christian music/Sources, regatds Atlantic306 (talk) 19:06, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the link. I see The Christian Beat was entered as a reliable source on 16 September 2015 without any evidence of having first—-or since—undergone a source review. (A word search in the reliable sources discussions confirm this.) I’m still sticking with my delete vote; while the site may contain reliable information, it also seems to be indiscriminate in what they publish, adhering to their mission (per their description: “… to point you to music…”) of promoting anything and everything Christian music related. Considering this particular reference essentially rephrases content from the subject's website, regardless of a third parties involvement to me it doesn’t come across as a significant example of notable coverage.

Comment The article Devyani Khobragade was created on December 17, 2013. Later it was moved to Devyani Khobragade incident after being nominated for deletion. This article was recreated independently on January 8, 2014. --Auric talk 17:39, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

- Comment - WP:NOTNEWSPAPER - the controversy about her children passport and her posting are hardly encyclopedic information. The incident in US was notable enough and hence has been given her name as Devyani Khobragade incident. Also the Adarsh Housing Society Scam has many big politicians involved and there are many persons whom the flats were allotted apart from Khobergode. She was never party of FIR or investigation in the scam in fact other IAS officers like Jairaj Phatak were arrested and suspended (again WP:NOTNEWS) applied here.

- Comment: Mr. Grau recorded nine albums between 1974 and 1983... a series of "reworked" albums a couple of years ago returned him to the public consciousness after being forgotten for 30 years. The problem is that he is completely unknown outside of his native Venezuela, and almost all reliable sources are going to be in Venezuelan print media from decades ago, and nowhere else.

Don't think this meets the WP:ORG requirement of multiple significant, reliable and independent coverage. The only real one is the Forbes article but it is more about the investment in the start-up as being notable. However, open-minded on this, and regardless, this article is going to be put up for AfD eventually (as it is, at best, borderline), so might as well test now. thank you.

- Comment Very clearly No - references must be intellectually independent. An article such as Artnet.com that relies pretty much exclusively on an interview with a company officer and on a Billboard reference which is also on the same style (promotional and relying exclusively on quotations/interview with company officers) fails WP:ORGIND and/or WP:CORPDEPTH.

Just the ASN listing and the AV Herald piece from 2014. With some more evidence of WP:SIGCOV I could flip to keep, but not with the present coverage. FOARP (talk) 08:15, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. DOesn't pass GNG. AIRCRASH is a well regarded essay - but still an essay. I did find this story (which differs from ASN - no injuries, no damage to the aircraft) - so I'm not sure how correct the ASN report is. Even if we accept the ASN report of 6 minor injuries and substantial damage (ASN itself doesn't support writeoff) - it doesn't pass AIRCRASH. And even if it were to be a hull loss (of the "too expensive to repair an old plane type") - of a 21 year old 737 - that's a bit umm - meh. AIRCRASH is a good essay - but it is a tad too binary - this is the sort of incident (if it passes V - which it doesn't here) - which is in the grey zone. Icewhiz (talk) 10:47, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- The article seem to be used. User:Lucifero4
- Thanks. I'm not sure what "used" means, although a high-traffic article, or articles with numerous incoming links may indicate a topic for which large numbers of people seek encyclopedic information. In this case there are several incoming links, but only as a result that Oakman is included on the Template:CofCApostles template. Regarding pageviews, before this AfD the page was averaging about 30 a month, or one a day, just barely more than what a page will receive from "Random article" traffic. I'm not giving a !vote here because I'm not sure he isn't notable in the same way that U.S. State legislators are notable (may only have local coverage, but actions demonstrably affect large numbers of people,) but although I appreciate the position I can't agree with it. However, I appreciate the explanation. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 14:09, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment For RLDS a good place to look for sources is the John Whitmer Historical Association Journal, and indeed, Oakman's role in the European church leading into WWII is discussed in "National Socialists and Social Idealists: The RLDS Church in Nazi Germany, 1933-1945", R. Ben Madison, The John Whitmer Historical Association Journal Vol. 16 (1996), pp. 15-30, and less extensively (though as "a towering figure in RLDS history") in "Forgotten Outpost: The Reorganized Latter Day Saints of Poland" by the same author in the same journal, Vol. 13 (1993), pp. 31-50. He's mentioned briefly in several other articles on RLDS history, though mostly in one paragraph or a few sentences. There's also the entire biography of Oakman listed in the sources, though of course one might dismiss that as not independent. Bakazaka (talk) 01:37, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete – I checked a few Mexican sources and they only mention him in passing. No in-depth coverage from third-party (non-LDS affiliated) sources. MX (✉ • ✎) 21:50, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep His leadership of Latter-day Saint opposition to the redefinition of marriage in Mexico made major headlines in multiple locations. See here [21], here from the Religion News service [22], the article from the Salt Lake Tribune already linked to in the article. Here is a very biased against De Hoyos source that leads with a half-page photo of him [23]. This is multiple locations, multiple coverage. We have multiple sources mentioning him and his actions. This is clearly enough to pass any reasonable reading of the general notability guidelines.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:51, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Comment from nominator – The sources presented above demonstrate that this is a WP:BLP1E situation, whereby the coverage is all about one event, specifically, Hoyos being against gay marriage. All of the articles linked above are from June 1-2, 2016. Regarding content in the sources presented directly above:
- [24] – contains some content, but I feel that it falls short of significant coverage. There's a quotation, there's a mention of where the quote occurred, a mention of the LDS Church asking local bishops to parrot Hoyos' comment, and a mention that Hoyos "encouraged members of the church to join family and religious advocacy groups who oppose same-sex marriage." That's it.
- [25] – A single passing mention, not much more than a name check: "Signed by the Area Authority president, Benjamin De Hoyos, and his two counselors, Paul B. Pieper and Arnulfo Valenzuela, the statement exhorted Mexico’s Mormons to push government leaders to “promote those measures designed to strengthen the family and to maintain it as the fundamental unit of society." This is not significant coverage. The subject signed something; no other information about the subject is presented.
- [26] – Provides marginally significant coverage. So, this is one source.
- However, the fact remains that this is a WP:BLP1E situation, meaning that the subject is not notable as per Wikipedia's standards. North America1000 00:14, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
- Leaning toward keep. I may come up with other reasons later, but it should count for something that Elder De Hoyos has spoken thrice in General Conference. DavidLeeLambert (talk) 11:26, 17 January 2019 (UTC) — Note: An editor has expressed a concern that DavidLeeLambert (talk • contribs) has been canvassed to this discussion.
- A primary source stating that a subject has given speeches does not confer notability on English Wikipedia. Primary sources are not usable to establish notability. North America1000 18:03, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete First, community consensus is that LDS leaders have to meet WP:GNG (see discussions in 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2018). Most of the sources in the article are not independent (lds.org, MormonNewsroom.org, Church News, Liahona, Ensign, the Almanac that says Deseret News on the label but is actually assembled by official Church News staff) or not reliable ("Grampa Bill"). Search finds mostly passing mentions and routine coverage (e.g. this person was at the temple opening), plus some quotes reprinted from church press releases. However, there is also coverage of this subject's leadership in opposing the constitutional amendment to legalize same-sex marriage in Mexico. (Note that I have removed the "traditional definition of marriage" POV from the article that did not reflect the cited source's characterizations.) But, as the nominator notes above, that simply makes this a WP:BLP1E issue, as the individual is otherwise low-profile and the event itself was not even significant enough to merit a mention in the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Mexico article. So, even though some coverage exists, WP:BLP1E policy trumps guidelines. Bakazaka (talk) 21:32, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep This source, from a non-LDS source, says De Hoyos is the highest LDS Authority in South America. Whether that's true or not, it attests to notability and is well outside the same-sex marriage timeframe. jj (talk) 05:41, 24 January 2019 (UTC) https://www.eltribuno.com/salta/nota/2018-9-25-19-4-0--urtubey-se-reunio-con-autoridades-de-la-iglesia-de-jesucristo-de-los-santos-de-los-ultimos-dias — Preceding unsigned comment added by JasonJack (talk • contribs) 05:41, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
- A matter, though, is that religious subjects do not have any presumed notability on English Wikipedia. Also, the source you provided is only a one sentence, passing mention that states, "There was also Elder Benjamín De Hoyos, member of the Seventy and highest authority in South America."

There is no significant coverage of the subject independent of the church in which he has a leadership position, hence failure of WP:BIO. The leadership position does not by itself imply notability.

- Comment Oh, Ab Orick, lol. I grew up in Dayton, and Abner Orick was a big deal at one time in that town, IIRC got a ton of local coverage because he considered himself a government watchdog and Dayton's political scene was full of cronyism. He may actually be notable. I'll see if I can find some sources. valereee (talk) 12:37, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
KeepI by no means exhausted the coverage; if anyone disagrees that notability has been proved, I can do more, but IMO I think he probably does qualify. The coverage is almost all local with some coverage in the rest of the state, but that's to be expected. He was a character, but not to the point he attracted national coverage. valereee (talk) 13:29, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the sourcing but I'm still not getting it. I don't think local coverage counts for much when it comes to GNG and I still don't see how he meets NPOL. If we let this through, there will be scope for tens of thousands of people in India whom we at present routinely reject. - Sitush (talk) 13:58, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- You don't think the sources meet "A politician who has received "significant press coverage" has been written about, in depth, independently in multiple news feature articles, by journalists." ? I guess I'd say if there are tens of thousands of people in India who are being written about multiple times in-depth over many years in the primary dailies of their midsize cities, they might be notable. valereee (talk) 14:21, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- I'm just saying how the guidelines have been interpreted in the past. It is also why quite a few articles by Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) have been deleted. I really don't give a crap about US politics but I do dislike systemic bias and the US gets away with murder on that score. I'm not trying to pull an OTHERSTUFFEXISTS line here, btw: local politicians get local coverage, it's not usually thought of as being a big deal. - Sitush (talk) 14:25, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Hey, you could mention probably a dozen other Dayton city commissioners and I'd say you're right, they aren't notable. I'd be able to do a search and find the only coverage they got were bare mentions of their wins or how they voted or single quotes in an article about an issue. I'm not arguing that being city commissioner (or the normal coverage that gets you) makes you notable. I'm arguing that in this case, a city commissioner of a midsize city might actually be notable because he got an abnormal amount of coverage. valereee (talk) 14:38, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I'm in the UK and can't see many US news sources, even though I see the results listings. Thus, I can't comment on their content, merely on what tends to happen: the "local heroes" type of situation doesn't usually wash at AfD. (Or "local baddy", as it sounds like it may be in this case.) - Sitush (talk) 14:40, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- I clipped all those articles -- you can't see the clippings? Maybe I did it wrong -- I only recently figured out it was even possible ETA: I don't think he was necessarily a local hero, although certainly the people in his blue-collar white east dayton neighborhoods thought so. And definitely not a baddy, he was well-intentioned. He was just a colorful character lol valereee (talk) 14:43, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry, I saw the links were for newspapers.com and I know I can't see them even though I can get results listings. However, I've just tried the first one and it is visible to me - I've not seen the clipping thing before but perhaps that does make a difference. Anyway, let's just see what other people think. Hero/celebrity/baddy/whatever - he's of local interest and local interest doesn't usually make for encyclopaedic interest in a worldwide context. Perhaps it should, and it would suit me just fine, but I'm just telling you how I've seen it play out in the past. - Sitush (talk) 14:58, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- No worries, since you're not convinced I'll keep working! Like I said, I'd by no means exhausted the sources :) valereee (talk) 15:13, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. I haven't gone through all of the sources to establish whether they're enough to make him special or not — and to be honest, I'm not actually going to, so I'm not going to "vote" either way. (Also, Valereee is making a sincere attempt to improve it, so I don't want to prejudge the results of the effort.) But I just wanted to point out the following: when it comes to city councillors, we do indeed normally require that either (a) they serve in an internationally prominent global city on the order of New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, Toronto or London, or (b) they can be referenced to a volume and depth and range of coverage that makes them a special case over and above most other city councillors. Simply showing that some local coverage exists is not normally enough, because local coverage of city councillors always exists — so we do indeed normally require some evidence of nationalizing coverage before we deem most city councillors to be notable enough, because if all you had to do to get a city councillor over the bar was show a handful of local coverage, then every city councillor could always show that and thus every city councillor would always be notable.
What I did want to say, though, is that in light of the above discussion I've reviewed the contents of the Dayton city councillors category — some of them do actually get over NPOL on other grounds (e.g. going on to serve in the state legislature), but there are indeed a few who have no credible evidence of notability at all, so I'm already taking on the task of listing those articles for AFD. Bearcat (talk) 17:04, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment @Bearcat: Thanks for that. Britishfinance (talk) 20:01, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete with regret. The sources are all local to the Dayton area with the exception of two. Akron is far removed from Dayton, and while not incredibly in-depth, it might help with GNG. The other is Cincinnati, again not tied to Dayton, but that is the briefest of bare mentions. Therefore it doesn't pass GNG, NPOL, or any other criteria I can think of to keep this well-written article. Dangnabbit. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 21:30, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete as WP:PROMO. The sources are either primary (Salty Dog Paddle site), routine local announcements (Palm Beach Post announcement, duplicated for effect), local admag photo galleries (Jupiter), actual news releases (Newswire) or about guests but not the actual event (Maxim, IMDb). It's promotion. The article is promotion. Wikipedia is not a means of promotion. If someone wants to add non-promotional info to the Salty Dog Paddle article they can do that, but there isn't encyclopedic content here to merge, so there's no good reason to keep the editing history.

- Those are primary sources, we can use them for WP:V but when there's evidence the team doesn't otherwise meet WP:GNG it makes this a difficult case, especially since searching in Thai language results is more difficult than searching in a language with Latin script.

Non-notable company (tagged >3 years). It has always been little more than self-pronouncements and lists of releases.

- Delete - Notability is not inherited, but record labels are known for the product they release, and by those releases their impact on musical culture. That said, I'm not convinced this label has a significant roster of notable artists. The Union Trade may be notable, but the label was started by that band, so in and of itself having this band on its roster does not help establish its notability. The Stripmall Architecture article does not mention the article at all, and the album mentioned in the Tricycle Records article is unsourced, so it fails WP:V. The Blacks (band) also does not mention the label, and likewise their entries on the Tricycle article are unreferenced. Everyone Is Dirty at least features that they are on Tricycle Records, but I'm not seeing by the references that this band is notable. Therefore there is one notable band, directly tied to the label. It therefore not "one of the more important independent labels" by WP:NMUSIC #5. An effort to find significant coverage in independent, reliable sources revealed only directory listings. The label therefore fails WP:GNG as well insofar as I can tell. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:55, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
