- Delete. There's some minimal coverage here, but there doesn't seem to be much online. It's possible given the date of release that there is more in print sources. Note to nominator: If you are going to state that not enough has been written about a subject it would be useful to at least state where you looked for coverage. --Michig (talk) 08:40, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

- Comment: The album is mentioned in the following sources:1234567891011121314. Given the album's release date in 1979, it makes sense that a majority of these sources are older newspaper and magazine articles. Aoba47 (talk) 04:12, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep since there are multiple articles/reviews on the album. Aoba47 (talk) 18:40, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. Multiple reviews in Google Books from the likes of Billboard (two reviews), Cadence, and Jazz magazine, so I'm struggling to see how the nominator determined that "not enough has been written about this album". --Michig (talk) 08:47, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

Delete or speedy delete per WP:CSD#G3.Article was created by hijacking a legitimate article and then moving it to the current name. The solution would be to move it back and revert the edits since the hijack, except the previous article has since been recreated and now has more content than it originally did. A history merge might be an appropriate solution.-gadfium 01:25, 2 October 2019 (UTC)- Changing to Keep per Doc James, now that the article is exposing the college as a scam. I presume someone here tipped off the reporter. Good work.-gadfium 21:29, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

- Keep I concur with Doc James. Now that we've discovered that it's a scam, and it's been reported as a scam by Newshub (which makes it notable), we should keep the article as a warning. Schwede66 21:22, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per Gadfium, Doc James and Schwede66. Yes Gadfium, "someone here tipped off the reporter". For those who haven't seen it, the newsroom story is The Invisible College That Wants Your Cash. Moriori (talk) 21:52, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
Delete and salt. Yes, it appears to be a hoax/scam but no, it is not for Wikipedia to put up an article warning people about it. Following its recent editing, the article as it stands at the moment ("New Zealand College of Education (NZCOE) appears to be a scam which is falsely presenting itself as a college...") fails WP:OR and WP:NOTSCANDAL, rather than editing it in this way it would have been better, IMO, to speedily delete it as a hoax. Even if an article about the scam were warranted (best written retrospectively, when the facts are actually known and that assessment can be made), it would not be entitled "New Zealand College of Education".Dorsetonian (talk) 17:48, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- It's not WP:OR; please see the Newsroom article. Schwede66 19:10, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- I don't think it's that clear-cut: the Newsroom article follows the discussion on Wikipedia at Talk:New Zealand College of Education. But I think that's now largely moot; having looked at how other hoaxes have been dealt with, I think we should deal with this similarly, and have replaced my recommendation with the one below. Dorsetonian (talk) 23:41, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Move. It think the way to deal with this is to list the hoax on Wikipedia:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia and move the hoax article to Wikipedia:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia/New Zealand College of Education without leaving a redirect. Anyone who then visits New Zealand College of Education will then see clearly that the article was a hoax and has been moved. See e.g. Rough Creek Ranch for a similar example. Dorsetonian (talk) 23:41, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep for 2-3 months then redirect to Wikipedia:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia mostly per the reasoning of @Doc James: (though this is a slightly different recommendation). We should keep the article up as it is now, simply to let recent scamees know what happened to their future education and money. Since the scammers website is now offline, there may be no other way to find out. After 2-3 months are gone though, the interest in these facts is much more academic. Redirecting to the more general article will preserve the edit history, which is important to me personally (I'll likely write a short article on this for The Signpost) but others may have similar interest in the scam.

- Delete. Very little coverage found online. It's possible that print coverage exists, but right now there's little more here than an infobox and a tracklisting, and I'm not a big fan of making redirects from convoluted titles. --Michig (talk) 08:54, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Our practice for albums used to be that the only notability claim they actually had to make was the fact that they had been recorded by a notable artist — if a musician or band was notable enough for an article, then every album they had ever recorded was "inherently" notable regardless of whether it actually had any meaningful notability claim or substantive reliable sources beyond technical verification that it exists. That's not our practice anymore, however: an album article has to be able to say more than just that it exists, and it has to be supported by real sourcing. But this doesn't, and isn't. Emilie-Claire Barlow does have other albums with stronger notability claims and better sourcing, to be sure, but her debut didn't achieve what some of the later albums did.

Doesn't seem notable, fails WP:GNG. All the sources here and elsewhere are by the two proponents of the approach, their business, and the group that gave them a grant. In general, when I come across the phrase "exploratory product development" in web pages turned up by Google, it's being used generically, not to refer to the methodology of these people. Google Scholar is the same. "Exploratory PD" also turns up nothing to support WP:GNG. Largoplazo (talk) 22:42, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

- I think you meant to say acronyms because I did not use any buzzwords. You should look up the useful acronyms I have invoked: acronyms are often used in AfDs as shortcuts, and these particular ones are relevant to my ivote on this AfD discussion. WP:NOTCLEANUP
Consider that Wikipedia is a work in progress and articles should not be deleted as punishment because no one has felt like cleaning them up yet. Remember, Wikipedia has no deadline.
Articles which are promotional require editing, not deletion. Lightburst (talk) 17:25, 13 October 2019 (UTC)- You missed my point. Throwing out WP:NEXIST and WP:BEFORE is without any value if you don't demonstrate what sources you found; i.e., they are empty buzzwords. I checked for available sources and found none that were sufficient to demonstrate independent notability. If you claim that there are some - present them here for evaluation. In their absence, the article functions only as an advertisement, not as encyclopedic coverage. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 20:00, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

UK TV production company, now apparently defunct and only really known for one series (The Inbetweeners). Can find no coverage online to suggest that the company itself is notable beyond this connection or that with its founders (Damon Beesley and Iain Morris). Article's only cited source is the company's own website, also defunct. Would suggest making this page a redirect to The Inbetweeners (as it was initially).

Article about footballer who made about a dozen appearances in the regionalized Russian third-tier. As a product of SKA Rostov-on-Don's reserve team, I was expecting to find significant coverage somewhere, but an online search of English- and Russian-language sources yields database entries, match reports and squad lists - nothing that remotely suggests WP:GNG would be met. Accordingly, the presumption of notability in WP:NFOOTBALL doesn't hold - not to mention that the sourcing for the inclusion of the Russian Second Division at WP:FPL is totally insufficient.

The 3 volume work by David Fenster is not a reliable source; neither the author nor the publication house has any credibility/repute and t÷he publication house is non-independent.
As determined in a RSN thread; Bhau Kalchuri's biography is not reliable (for largely the same reasons) except as to verification of non-extraordinary claims. Certainly, it does not add any to notability.
We are left with Purdom, who (despite being one of Meher baba's closest associates) has covered her in the context of his narrative about Meher baba via a a reliable press. But, a single source doesn't confer a passage of WP:GNG or WP:ANYBIO.
I don't locate any other reliable source that covers her signifcantly (in a non-trivial fashion) and hence, seek a redirect to Mandali_(Meher_Baba) ∯WBGconverse 16:40, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

- Keep, at least this one's a save. The publishing house of George Allen & Unwin(now Allen & Unwin) is, in fact, one of the most credible publishing houses in the world. It published, for instance, J. R. Tolkian's The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbitt, among many other well known publications. A reputable source. Randy Kryn (talk) 17:00, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- Are you trying to compare publication of fiction with non-fiction? That seems odd, and one non-neutral author/source does not notability make. - Sitush (talk) 17:07, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- The publishing house is notable and reputable. It published a nonfiction book which lends reputability to this article. Maybe the book can be used to bulk up some of the cites on the deleted articles, but I'm surprised that the Baba editors here were strangely silent on the burial site page. I got caught up in these pages when the first wave of deletions were ongoing out of a sense of fairness. Is Baba so disliked in India? Peter Townshend seems to really like him, which should say something in his behalf. And, of course, Don't Worry, Be Happy gave him a nice image. I guess I'm missing something in terms of understanding the dislike, but that's neither Here or there. Randy Kryn (talk) 17:21, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- I see you are again casting aspersions, despite being warned about it by Jo-Jo Eumerus when they closed the recent AfD on a related matter - this has nothing to do with dislike and I, for one, am not even from India or of Indian heritage. And, for what it is worth, the opinion of Pete Townshend counts for nothing more than mine here, and the status of the publisher means nothing in terms of the notability of the subject. As I've just said on your talk page, I think you need to read WP:CIR. - Sitush (talk) 17:31, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- That still doesn't answer my question as to why a published book by a reputable publisher doesn't "count". Because, as you say below, it's labeled as being written by a hagiographer? Where is that line drawn? Anyway, this woman seems to have been the central female in the Baba group, and that seems important enough to the topic to be worthy of an article as long as a good source by a reputable publisher has been included, which it seems to have been.

- Randy Kryn, WP:GNG says:-
If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list.
- Purdom counts somewhat (though not very strongly, courtesy the independence concerns) but even then, it's a single source contra the emphasis on plural, in the above quote. ∯WBGconverse 06:34, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

This album got one review from Pitchfork (already cited) but I can find nothing else in reliable sources and the article is otherwise dependent on social media announcements and basic retail listings. Also, This album could be eligible for speedy deletion per WP:A9 because there is no article on the rapper, but maybe the album's importance is boosted by the reviews it has received. There is very little to find about the rapper besides tidbits in the reviews and this: [1]. There might be enough for a stub article about her, but that should come before an article for this album. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:43, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

- Comment: This XXL source, 1, briefly mentions the album. HotNewHipHop published an article, 2, about the album. The Fader, Paper, and BroadwayWorld also put out articles about specific songs from the album, 345. Genius published an article about the album's lyrics, 6, Pitchfork also put out a second article about one of the album's songs, 7, and NPR has done a review for the album, 8. A majority of the articles that I have found focus on songs from the album, but I have also located a few sources that discuss the album. I agree that an article about the rapper would be the ideal starting point, but there does appear to be coverage on this album. I am leaning keep, but I am not completely certain so I am not casting a vote either way. Here are some additional sources.

WP:BLP of a writer, not reliably sourced as clearing WP:AUTHOR. I can't read or write Farsi to determine whether she has the correct kind of sources to salvage this with or not, so I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with the appropriate language skills can repair it -- but I had to strip all three of the "references" that were here because one was a WP:CIRCULAR self-citation to the Farsi Wikipedia and the other two both went to spoof sites that tried to make me download computer viruses instead of real media, and even the Farsi article is flagged for major maintenance issues and doesn't have any sources in it either (so we can't just copy over sources from there and be done with it.)

WP:BLP1E of a person who is notable for a specific event, but is already well-covered by that event's article without needing to delve deeper into his private personal life outside of the event. This is referenced entirely to factoids cherrypicked from coverage of the court case itself (along with a few stray primary sources that aren't notability boosters), not to any evidence that his personal life has actually been a subject of coverage in its own right -- and since the existing Obergefell v. Hodges already covers him in the appropriate context, there's no compelling reason why he would need a standalone biographical article to delve more deeply into his childhood or his educational background or his career or his family relationships than the court case's article already does. To be clear, I do believe his name should be retained as a redirect to Obergefell v. Hodges -- but I'm not seeing a convincing reason why it needs to be a separate standalone biographical article that deep-dives into his private life outside of his role in the court case itself.

- Edith Windsor features evidence that she already had some degree of preexisting notability before her court case. It may not necessarily have gotten her all the way over a notability standard in the absence of the court case, but it's still contributory — and Edie Windsor also cites a lot more sources than this does, covering her in the context of a lot more than just the court case alone. That's the difference between her and this: her article is actually showing and sourcing hard evidence that she's more than just a WP:BLP1E, while Obergefell's isn't — all we've got is soft, unproven assertions that he's notable for more than just the court case itself, not hard evidence equivalent to what Windsor's article is showing.

This article has a list of products that support a particular protocol of another product. There are many items in this list, suggesting that feature is not particularly notable or an novel difference-maker among products. I don't think there's encyclopedic value in such a list, so this seems to only serve for promotion of the individual products. Many non-links, so the products themselves often aren't notable. Very few references. This broad list will never be current and will be quite difficult to support. Seems to me it fails WP:NOTPROMOTION, WP:NOTCATALOG, and WP:RAWDATA.

- Matt Mercer (actor) (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)
First off, it is very difficult to find reliable sources for this subject, since looking up "Matt Mercer" on Google generates results on the far more notable Critical Role star Matthew Mercer, who is also known for his notable roles in anime and video games.
And when sources *were* found, they are just brief mentions of the subject, and barely any of them have significant depth. There is barely any coverage from credible news sources. So I'm convinced that the subject fails WP:SIGCOV.
Furthermore, the subject is largely involved with indie films or really, really low budget productions, many of which have barely any notability nor coverage to speak of, so I am not convinced that the subject meets WP:ENT, either.
On top of that, I also think this subject also does not meet WP:WHYN. Quoting the guideline: We require "significant coverage" in reliable sources so that we can actually write a whole article, rather than half a paragraph or a definition of that topic. If only a few sentences could be written and supported by sources about the subject, that subject does not qualify for a separate page, but should instead be merged into an article about a larger topic or relevant list.
From the same guideline: Because these requirements are based on major content policies, they apply to all articles, not solely articles justified under the general notability criteria.
I'm not convinced that you could write very much for this subject due to the lack of sources.
PS: If you look into the subject's article history, you could see that the draft was declined several times, and that it is has never been approved by anyone. This means the reviewers never thought the subject meets our notability criteria to begin with. Sk8erPrince (talk) 15:21, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

- Weak keep as he does have some leading roles in films that might be independent but do have multiple critics reviews at Rotten Tomatoes which means they are notable. His roles can be confirmed in those reviews, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 19:51, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
- But do those reviews talk about the subject, or the films themselves? From what I could see, it seems to be the latter with trivial to no mention of the subject; hence failing WP:SIGCOV. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 00:28, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

- Delete - Not an easy subject to judge, but looking at the provided sources, two of them are 404 and the rest consist of mere mentions that fail WP:SIGCOV or interviews that also fail WP:RS and WP:IS. Movies where the subject stars in are low-budget productions and for the most part, barely pass WP:GNG on their own. Perhaps if more reliable sources were added to the article my opinion would change. — Centron X 11:05, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete for lack of evidence of notability; i.e. he's not famous and has not done anything particularly notable.Strandvue (talk) 00:24, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Looking at the article's sources, no WP:SIGCOV (sources are passing mentions, interviews) so doesn't pass WP:GNG.
However WP:NACTOR says "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films". The subject has had a role in various films we have articles on. Of those, Beyond the Gates (film) and The Toybox look notable, in comparison with the others that do not. Any film we have an article on must by definition be notable, no? Are these two films notable enough, and did he play a leading role?-Lopifalko (talk) 14:17, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
- I don't think The Toybox is a particularly notable film; plus, there is no in depth coverage of the subject for that production. Failing WP:SIGCOV means that the subject is not notable enough to have their own article. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 04:47, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete based on lack of WP:SIGCOV to meet WP:BASIC, including in The New York Times as highlighted by others, and the lack of notability of the B movie horror films required to satisfy WP:NACTOR. -Lopifalko (talk) 05:48, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. His performances in films have been reviewed two times in The New York Times (see here and here). If he's in leading roles in films being reviewed by major film critics he meets that criteria #1 of WP:NACTOR.4meter4 (talk) 01:47, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
- First of all, Jason and the Golden Fleece isn't a film; it's a play. [1] Quoting the NY Times article:
JASON AND THE GOLDEN FLEECE, a play by Arthur Perlman, based on Greek myth, presented by Theaterworks/USA at the Auditorium at the Equitable Tower, 787 Seventh Avenue, at 51st Street, Manhattan.
Also, that NY Times article you linked only has a mere passing mention of the subject; that's not significant, in depth coverage. It talks more about the play itself than the subject. We also don't have an article of the play in question, so it's definitely not a notable theatre production.

- Delete. OK, let's get this over with: the first two Chicago Business refs are basically only about the company Peapod with no apparent WP:SIGCOV of the the subject of the article. The last one is a profile of Andrew and Thomas Parkinson, that just barely gets over the line for WP:SIGCOV. The Private Label Retailer piece is a summary of a video of an interview and thus not sufficiently independent/not a secondary source. The Digital Commerce 360 piece is largely verbatim quotes from a speech given by Thomas Parkinson, and thus does not sustain notability for the same reason as the Private Label Retailer piece. Conclusion: only one piece of potential WP:SIGCOV cited, and that's not enough to sustain notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FOARP (talk • contribs) 11:37, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

- Merge to Germanic peoples per WP:DEL-REASON (5) and WP:MERGEREASON (2, 3, 4).
- Per WP:DEL-REASON (5) a content fork should not be deleted if a merger is appropriate. WP:MERGEREASON (2, 3, 4) states that an article should be merged if there is a large overlap between them, if one of the articles is short, or if the short article is better understood within the context of the larger article. Germanic peoples (modern) is a short article better understood within the context of the article Germanic peoples, with whom it has a substantial overlap (see the sources used in this article). A merger is therefore appropriate in this case.
- As long as information on modern Germanic peoples is considered beyond the scope of the article Germanic peoples, this article can however not be considered a content fork, and should be kept. Modern Germanic peoples are just as notable as modern Slavic peoples of Turkic peoples. Krakkos (talk) 20:29, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Your last point is wrong if this information is considered beyond the scope of the article Germanic peoples because it is not agreed that there are modern Germanic peoples. I think you are failing to consider that there are Slavs because they call themselves Slavs, from Russia to Croatia. I'm not sure if most Germanic speakers are even aware they speak a Germanic language. Srnec (talk) 00:58, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

- Delete as per the deletion nomination and the article talk page and general history of this silly discussion. It is a content fork to try to publish material not suitable for WP. It is not the first attempt.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 21:13, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Merge to Germanic peoples, I took part of the discussion of other page, however I understood the arguments of both sides, I uphold the core of my argumentation.(KIENGIR (talk) 22:49, 1 October 2019 (UTC))
- Merge to Germanic peoples. The content was mostly covered there until a relatively recent alteration of the article's scope. A couple RfCs on Talk:Germanic peoples were started by a block-evading troll (who has pretended to be a Kurdish editor complaining that Wikipedia is similar to Metapedia as well as an editor named Aryanman902 complaining that "wikipedia is part of a Judeo-Masonic khazar mafia conspiracy theory"), and these were seemingly used as the basis to change the article's scope. Regardless of the outcome of this AfD, I think a fresh RfC at the talk page that is not tainted by association with a barely literate sockpuppet would be useful to settle the dispute. Hrodvarsson (talk) 03:48, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Merge. This article is irrelevant. Modern Germanic peoples are related to the descendants who uses the Germanic language and there is no need this article to be existed. JeBonSer (talk | sign) 11:10, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Do RS refer to these peoples as Germanic? I think we should be basing our decision on that. I tend to agree that it makes inherent sense that they would be considered Germanic, however, given the way we discuss Turkic peoples, Slavic peoples, etc.--Ermenrich (talk) 13:22, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per JeBonSer. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 20:45, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Merge back to Germanic peoples, although there's not a lot of content to merge in the first place. The analogy to Celts (modern) is apt, although that article has incomparably more content. There is no point at which the Germanic peoples can be shown to have disappeared (in the case of the Celts, there is at least a period in Late Antiquity or so which provides a potential "breaking point"), nor is there a reason or mechanism for how this should have been accomplished (there is clearly continuity until the modern period), so there is no reason to treat the group any differently from Turkic peoples, Iranian peoples, Slavic peoples, Balts, etc., which are not necessarily associated with a well-developed common identity, either – despite attempts to establish one, much like in the case of the modern Celtic nations. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 14:02, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

- Comment. She may be notable. I don't know Swedish, but she was recently the main subject of this article for the main newspaper in Norrtälje which is behind a pay wall. It appears that she is a jazz singer and not just a composer. I believe a wikipedian who can read Swedish and is familiar with searching for Swedish langauge references is going to be needed in order to find and verify content for the purposes of notability. Anybody know one to ping?4meter4 (talk) 03:00, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. It is true that she is a vocalist as well as a composer. The Swedish jazz journal Orkesterjournalen (OJ) lists several performances with Matsdotter as singer, notably several concerts by Uppland Big Band. She also sings on a CD by Cabazz (a group that includes several prominent Swedish jazz musicians including Morgan Ågren) which is reviewed by OJ here. As a composer she has made a full album of her own, issued by Phono Suecia, a highly established record label for more serious and artistic music, owned by STIM (the Swedish Performing Rights Society). /FredrikT (talk) 08:44, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

- Comment The issue with this isn't the lack of sources in English - even in Swedish I only see blogs, lists, music aggregators etc. online. If there are decent sources in print in Swedish that's great, or if an online search is showing other editors something I'm not seeing, please add them. Otherwise it's still not evident to me that she is notable. Mccapra (talk) 15:38, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

- Weak delete: It is worth noting a brief inconclusive discussion on notability criteria after the equivalent Swedish Wikipedia page was created; [3]. As to the current article, I added a reference to a biography page at an Encyclopaedia of European living women composers, songwriters and creators of music site; as with occasional previous cases where an article subject has a biography on another site (Allmusic, for example, in other cases), I am reluctant about deletion where such biographical coverage exists. However I am not seeing the substantial coverage which would demonstrate WP:MUSICBIO notability. AllyD (talk) 16:29, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

- Delete - Incredibly poorly written article, which runs afoul of WP:PROMOTION and is generally a mess. No references. The external link to the "official website" leads to an Instagram page. Non-notable subject. The page is extra confusing as it was initially written about a different, French, rapper with the same name [4] (who wouldn't have passed WP:GNG either) and some sections from that version of the article survive to the current version. The 9 September edit which changes the rapper this article is about with a different one might also constitute vandalism. [5] In any case, strong delete or, at the very least, reversion to the version about the French rapper if anybody thinks that has some merit, but I doubt it.

- Weak delete or redirect to an article about the book. His book, Give Them An Argument: Logic for the Left, is published through John Hunt Publishing, which uses a mix of traditional-model royalty-based publishing and author-pays vanity-press publishing (and deliberately keeps secret which books are which). So we can't really judge its significance merely from its publication, but maybe this is not different from most other books. What we should look for is published reviews. And it has some, together with author interviews, in webzine-like sources rather than the scholarly press: [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]. If he had another book with the same reception, I'd think he had a strong case for WP:AUTHOR, but as it is there's an issue with WP:BIO1E and WP:TOOSOON. His academic work as listed on Google Scholar is certainly very far from WP:PROF. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:48, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
- Weak keep. I think he's a very recognizable name in the right circles at this point. Regardless of his importance in a narrower, more antiquated view of academia, he's a relatively prominent satellite in a lot of online political commentary related to left-leaning economics and progressive politics. The article's current state is pathetic, but it should be simple, if tedious, to collect well-viewed and well-received pieces he's done with various outlets. Dfsghjkgfhdg (talk) 00:34, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
- So you think he has reviewed books, plural? Can you at least name them? Because I couldn't find more than just the one. Recognizability is of no value if we can't back it up with sources. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:00, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

I also don't see that WP:GNG is met because there's a lack of coverage about him. So, to me, the question is whether he meets WP:NAUTHOR. He appears to have one book out, but it's unclear whether or not it's self-published. He has a number of posts at academia.edu, but that's all self-published material with no editorial review. The reviews of the book are by blogs and left-leaning sources that are, to me, of questionable reliability and independence. Academic publications and main stream media generally have not reviewed this book. It's not apparent to me that this one book is enough to show notability or meet any notability criteria--at least not yet. Papaursa (talk) 21:31, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

- Comment: Because "yksisarvinen" is a common Finnish word, you should try to search "writer's name + book's name" (= "Kaari Utrio + Yksisarvinen"). I found these reliable sources:
- "Kaari Utrio uppoutui ristiretkien aikaan" (in Finnish). MTV. 13 September 2000.
- Ahola, Suvi (2 December 2000). "Rikkaudensarvi ja tarina-arkku". Helsingin Sanomat (in Finnish).

Original research, namely a synthesis of many cases when theosophists took part in politics or politicians were interested in theosophy. Most of the sources are either theosophic (and thus not independent, as WP:RS requires) or not consider the topic in any depth, like mentioning a membership of a person in Theological society.

- Redirect to Dragon Ball or List of Dragon Ball characters and salt as above. This is a term specific to the franchise and has not had any extensive use outside of it. Compare with Namekian which redirects to the List of Dragon Ball characters AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:02, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Merge a little bit of content into one of these targets and make the redirect go to specified section... No arguments against previous AfD regarding the notability, but the reason for restoration provided here [11] is not entirely unreasonable. At least a few steps should be taken in order to not WP:R#ASTONISH people when they arrive. I believe the Namekian example provided by AngusWOOF is actually a much more elegant solution than the previous target here going to a franchise page. Perhaps merging to that list of characters page is even a better solution if the franchise page is to be reserved for pointing at other, clearer products of the franchise.

- Delete - run of the mill sales person and film producer. We tend to delete articles about producers. His listing in Variety is in passing and is of the up-and-coming variety, pardon the pun. Bearian (talk) 15:30, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - I can see where many of the concerns are coming from. I have amended the reference for the Variety line to one which more directly and substantially addresses the subject; the honor itself also suggests a level of recognition by industry peers, as the recipients are chosen via industry submissions which are then curated by Variety's reporters and critics. Additionally, articles exist for other recent recipients, such as Xavier Gens and Nancy Grant; while it would be fallacy to suggest this warrants an article for every recipient, it may suggest that those named are not always of an "up and coming" variety. It's also arguable that the "Prince of Alexandria" profile in Scene magazine and the first Deadline article cited tend toward being substantial, as opposed to passing or trivial mentions. Taken together, these sources might establish notability. I am also not seeing guidance to suggest that we tend to delete articles about film producers in the common outcomes article. Given the fairly extensive credits of the subject, it's likely that further sources could be added in order to bring the article to its full potential, as well.

- Most films that are created now have multiple producers so the producer may not be particularly notable, even though they are attached to a famous film with famous actors. As always secondary sources that are of a sufficient depth of coverage are the standard to prove notability. Here there is a lot of name drops, some minor coverage, a single primary source (an interview) but no real secondary sources of depth. Not a thing.scope_creepTalk 23:42, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- My understanding is that, while an executive producer credit can indicate varying degrees of involvement, a producer/produced by credit (such as many of those here) is traditionally understood in the industry to indicate one of the main, actually hands-on producers of a project, which is why they are so coveted and one sees so few of them on a given film.Stm2193 (talk) 00:08, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

The company doesn't appear to be notable. In the various more or less promotional versions of the page there ever was only one source that meets WP:SIGCOV, and that's of dubious reliability and independece and even spam blacklisted (www.referenceforbusiness.com/history2/0/Troutman-Sanders-L-L-P.html). My efforts to find something better found a piece of local law news. Beyond that there's some recent news buzz about a sexual harassment case at the firm, but that doesn't cover the company in any detail and is mostly reporting on the allegations which haven't had their day in court yet and adding which would cause BLP issues (e.g. [12]).

The other two I'm skeptical about; they seem to be a summary of interviews with employees about the firm as a workplace. I'm not sure that counts as either a secondary or a reliable source. I'm not sure how we would make use of such sources even if they were generally considered to be reliable.

This very old firm (originally founded in 1897) has around 650 attorneys and at least 11 offices around the United States including in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. with annual revenue of over half a billion US Dollars. If we deleted every article w/o sufficient or questionable citations thousands and thousands and thousands of articles and stubs that are useful to readers would be subject to deletion. As pointed out by @Bd2412:, just one example of a long existing and credible newspaper & web news outlet produced 250 hits for this firm. As with multitudinous other articles, why not use a tag or tags such as {{More citations needed|, {{Better source|, {{unreliable source?|, {{third-party|, {{importance inline|, {{cleanup-PR|1=article, {{Cleanup|reason=, {{update-section| or whichever is applicable to correct a perceived problem or problems. The firm is a Global 200 (#83), Am Law 200 (#68), NLJ 500 (#74) ranked, as well as Tier 1 ranked in many areas of the law, in 2019 rankings (see, Ranks#1 and Ranks#2).

The second is on the website of one of the involved parties. The first does not look very reliable. I am not going to preclude that there are more sources extant, but a building that is still in the proposal stage is unlikely to ever have enough impact to be notable if it is not built.

- Keep. Among the many reliable sources found by the searches spoon-fed by the nomination process are this book, this academic paper and these news articles. I suppose Epinoia's statement that the "usual local school coverage of sports..." is not found is technically correct, because this seems to be mostly national rather than local coverage.

- Weak Keep I agree with Phil Bridger that the book and paper he found are independent, reliable, and significant. I'm not sure that they are significantly enough about the school to devote an article to, and the book, at least, is more primary than I would like. That said, I think they are just the tip of the iceberg and some dedicated searching could find enough material to make an article out of without requiring synthesis. On the other hand, I agree with the current tagging of the article that its current incarnation is completely unworkable. Rockphed (talk) 17:35, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- The press articles are routine coverage, not significant coverage. The rest is also not significant coverage - simply because you can't use that material for an article. The Organizing Schools research paper focuses on something else - an aspect - and the information there is almost exclusively obviously outdated, and would give a false impression about that school. The book found on SITE focuses on a single aspect (the use of X) and looks - like you said - a bit too much like a primary source, and also not really independent. Significant coverage basically means "enough info for a good article" and neither routine sports coverage nor info from one(outdated) point of time out of a long timespan are enough on their own to write an acceptable article. The book is not only primary, and not independent, but also suffers from focusing on something specific. We basically have several not connected middle tiles of a puzzle; if put that together we have an article that's very likely misrepresenting the subject. The current state of the article is abysmal and WP:TNT applies, too.Lurking shadow (talk) 06:46, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- The book that I cited is by no means primary, completely independent, and has a general overview of the school's status and history on pages 59-60, which includes the statement that it is one of the longest-established high schools in the capital of the Philippines. This is better sourcing than we have for the vast majority of US high schools whose articles are kept without question. Indeed, just the news coverage of this school's basketball team is better than we have for the vast majority of US high schools whose articles are kept without question. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:03, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
- Most of the info is dated(e.g. "currently") and can not serve as basis of the article alone. The info that's actually there is not enough for a standalone article(although it should normally be enough for a brief mention on a list,List of schools in the Philippines has been deleted in a deletion discussion).

- Weak Delete - The sources linked above aren't great, but frankly they're not much worse than the average high school article has (sadly), and I'm often willing to give a little bit of the benefit of the doubt when the sources might not be accessible (technically or practically). That would leave me at neutral/abstain, most likely. What pushes me over to weak delete is that we have an article with a whole lot of claims that demand citations, but which has precisely zero references. There's not really any material to preserve in that context, save a statement that the school exists. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 05:35, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

- Keep Hello. Just a casual Wikipedian passing by. I tried to add the references by finding some articles and books as sources and cleaned up the essay like history. I am in no way affiliated to the school so I won't argue if the majority decides to delete it. Maybe you may want to take a look now or even improve what I just did. —Allenjambalaya (talk) 09:12, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- My case for deletion is weaker now, that the article is at least in an acceptable state, although unsourced entries remain that will need to be cleaned up later. However, if it is indeed a case for "keep", then only narrowly so, because there is not much coverage, and no reliable independent sources can be found for long periods of time, which means the article won't give readers that much good information about the school.Lurking shadow (talk) 12:57, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Sourcing looks impressive at first glances but barring Cohen it's either sourced to Meher Baba himself or publications by follower-trustees or random non-independent websites.

- Keep per sources used: the Cohen book published by Harper & Row (a reputable publisher), the vetted and published Emory University Ph.D. doctoral dissertation, and the Purdom book published by George Allen & Unwin (a reputable publisher). Meher Baba's own book God Speaks published by Dodd, Mead & Co. (a reputable publisher) is then used to describe the concept, which I would think is acceptable given the number of good sources already used on the page. I may now be told that people who write about someone they like can't be used as sources, even if published and vetted by reputable publishers. I've been threatened to be taken to ANI over my actions on these Baba deletion pages, and called incompetent on my talk page by an established editor. But I still must ask, what is exactly wrong with the PhD. paper and the books mentioned above, I thought reputable publishers who vet their material are used as sources on Wikipedia. It's lucky I've got one of those fake trophy fishes that sing "Don't Worry, Be Happy" (which is the closest I've come to being a follower of Meher Baba). Randy Kryn (talk) 22:00, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- Appreciate sources but being Meher Baba’s philosophy, why not incorporate into his page? Hyperbolick (talk) 04:13, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- PhD dissertations are not reliable sources usually, and the publication came of a non-independent house-press.
- Meher Baba's own book is reliable for documenting what Meher Baba said and certainly does not allude to the notability of any concepts, contained therein.
- Purdom is quite non-independent and his contribution to the case of notability, is borderline. ∯WBGconverse 07:04, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

- This article has nothing to do with WP:WALLEDGARDEN, an essay which is summarized: "Articles should have outgoing and incoming links to the wider encyclopedia. Don't create a group of articles that exclusively link to each other." This article has many unwalled-garden outgoing and incoming links. These can be easily seen by reading the article and noticing the outgoing links, and then clicking on the 'What links here' topic which appears (at least in Monobook) on the left-hand sidebar.

- Well, the essence of the essay is that there shouldn't be standalone article which are just related to each other and which can be merged into. It does not mean that one should check the "What links here" and be happy that something turns out.

- No, the essence of the essay is as summarized in the "Summary" box at the top of the page: "Articles should have outgoing and incoming links to the wider encyclopedia. Don't create a group of articles that exclusively link to each other." The page has links to many articles outside of Baba related pages, and has many incoming links outside of links to Baba related articles. "Walled garden" does not apply in this case. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:30, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- Randy Kryn, pray provide some of those
many incoming links
from this list. I am seeing 4 links from articles within this Meher-baba-garden, 3 from out of the garden and 1 from a dis-amb page.∯WBGconverse 07:31, 8 October 2019 (UTC)- "Pray" seems the right word here, as the concept of God-realization is present in many practices and instructional spiritual teachings. A state of mind or an actual personal experience with whatever people define as the "Divine" (yoga, for instance, means "yoke" or "union with God" or "union with the divine").
- It seems Meher Baba calls this state of mind or being "God-realization". Appropriate links to this page include the term Spiritual evolution, which begins "Spiritual evolution is the philosophical, theological, esoteric or spiritual idea that nature and human beings and/or human culture evolve: either extending from an established cosmological pattern (ascent), or in accordance with certain pre-established potentials." The page Plane (esotericism)'s short description is "A subtle state, level, or region of reality", and Involution (esoterism) says "In some instances it refers to a process that occurs prior to evolution and gives rise to the cosmos, in others an aspect of evolution, and still others a process that follows the completion of evolution in the human form."
- These pages provide links to this page, with a key page Spiritual evolution pointing to Baba's contributing thoughts to the concept. The walled garden essay calls for incoming links (its summary again: "Articles should have outgoing and incoming links to the wider encyclopedia") - and three good links fulfill this requirement. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:20, 8 October 2019 (UTC)

- Would like to clarify, per the information asked above about outside links, that the Spiritual evolution page and the Involution (esoterism) page both have entire sections which describe this topic, and not just a link. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:02, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
- Now the nominator removed the entire section on this topic on Spiritual evolution with this edit with an insulting edit summary to whatever editor added it (the appropriately placed per-topic and on-topic section was added on 15 May, 2011, by user Hoverfish).

- You pretty much made your 'delete' ivote above, which is how I and possibly Sandstein read it (if it wasn't an ivote then maybe this AfD would have been closed as no consensus instead of relisted twice). Do you have another reason to delete besides the walled-garden, or is this an "I don't like it comment?". Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:29, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
- My reason is same that this has no notability outside Meher Baba's connection. Read the article; it has nothing from outside world. It only talks about the theory that baba proposed. He draws connections with other theories; but that's again what he says. This is the walled garden in the sense I explained above; which might not be what others interpret from the essay. But in short, the topic has no standalone notability outside Baba's connection. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 13:44, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
- That wall-gardened reason seems incorrect per the standalone nobility this article achieves through an entire subsection and link in the Spiritual evolution article, where this topic fits into and adds to the article's subject. The links in the article itself further define what is being discussed, so the outside links act as descriptors, which I would think would be the reason and purpose that outside-garden links are asked for.

- Redirect/Merge to Meher Baba (preferably to the Teachings section). A standalone article would need enough independent references to pass GNG. This is one article which I think is unlikely to be expanded with information from third party sources. It reads more like an "in-universe" fandom article and is a good candidate to redirect to the main article. At most, a sentence or two could be merged if required.--DreamLinker (talk) 13:41, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- The article is well sourced with independent references (see the first 'Keep' comment above). This isn't an in-universe fandom page but the sourced description of god consciousness -- a topic discussed and described by many notable philosophers, religious figures, human potential teachers, yogis, and others -- by a notable individual who took the time to study and report on the topic. Randy Kryn (talk) 19:28, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- I agree that there are references, I disagree that these are enough to write out a full fledged article and establish notability for the same. Vanamonde93 has mentioned a great solution below where we could merge these smaller article into one article dedicated to the philosophy of Meher Baba, which is notable as a whole. I am willing to support that.--DreamLinker (talk) 03:22, 15 October 2019 (UTC)
- My first preference would be for someone to write an article titled "Philosophy of Meher Baba" or equivalent, and merge all these spinoffs into that. There isn't enough material for a standalone article, but obviously his teachings as a whole were notable, and that would prevent his biography from being overwhelmed with this material. Failing that, I would recomment a redirect to Meher Baba, because of the absence of substantive information in reliable sources independent of the subject. Vanamonde (Talk) 19:22, 14 October 2019 (UTC)

- Comment All that is missing are source(s) that discuss the topic as a topic. I'd really like to make sure this topic isn't covered for lack of WP:BEFORE. I'm guessing User:Mark Hartley is someone with background or professional expertise in tree deaths .. which for the tree industry including governments which maintain trees is a real area of concern and not just some made-up category on Wikipedia. Also worth noting these are small countries with high quality reportage so making a complete list like this is possible compared to many other countries, no one is proposing lists like this for every country, the nomination rationale "for each one and each country" is a slippery slope logical fallacy. -- GreenC 14:54, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

- Why do you think the nom said "each country"? They are making an argument for deletion based on a global view that "each country" could have an article like this one and we must stop that from happening. Which I agree it would be silly if "each country" had this type of article. But "no one" (other than the nom) is making a case that "each country" could have an article like this, the nom is making a slippery slope logical fallacy. -- GreenC 20:08, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

- Comment, and another thing ("here we go coola":)), i take issue with the title of this article - "accidental tree failures", the dropping of branches and the falling over of trees are not necessarily a "failure" by the tree, rather it is part of their natural life cycle.... says coola who sees numerous examples of fallen branches that commence growing and fallen trees that are happily growing from their "ground horizontal" position.

- Comment On the one hand Andrew D.'s list of sources shows that people dying by falling tree part in Australia is probably notable. On the other hand, I don't think the list as currently written is encyclopedic. For one thing, it is so poorly formatted that I haven't figured out what the default sort even is. Part of me wants to scream Verba Delenda Est and consign this list to the scrapheap of history. Another part of me thinks that a more thorough examination of the sources is required and this list can be saved, expanded, and shepherded into greatness. The latter part of me is probably going to win, but I will have to put some thought into what I think should be done with this list. Rockphed (talk) 14:01, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

- Criteria for inclusion is decided on a per-list basis. Member notability is sometimes used and sometimes not.

- Delete Listcruft of non-notable people dying in an unfortunate way. One could dig up obituaries of people dying from all sorts of causes around the world but that does not mean a compilation of them is appropriate for Wikipedia. Deaths from car crashes occur in Australia and are certainly written about both as a topic as a whole and in specific incidents but it is an indiscriminate collection of information to list all the incidents, names of the victims known or unknown. This being a relatively unusual method does not mean this is appropriate for Wikipedia. Reywas92Talk 23:05, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - I actually agree that a topic on the overall concept of accidental, tree related deaths in Australia would very likely be notable enough for an article, with sources that would certainly satisfy the WP:GNG. However, a completely indiscriminate list of every recorded incident related to this concept is not. I agree completely with Reywas92's argument about this. As the only source being used in this article that is not just about one of the individual incidents is not even on Australia, but the UK, there is really nothing here that needs to be preserved for the actual valid article to be created. Rorshacma (talk) 17:58, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - This is an indiscriminate list. A collection of every death caused by falling trees, sortable by age, gender, etc, may be useful for researchers but does not belong in an encyclopedia. I'm curious who came up with some of these headings: Do reliable sources categorize incidents as either "School, Scout, Department of Education" or "Accidental"?
- I'm also hesitant to define "Accidental tree failures in Australia" as a viable non-list article topic. Fatal tree failures occur all over the world; is there anything special about Australia that would justify a country-specific article? –dlthewave ☎ 17:37, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- I think it would be special if Australia is known for such failures or Australia has done something notable to deal with such failures. And I would like to add to the rest of the discussion that, of course, although "Citizen of the United States" would be a valid article topic (see Citizenship in the United States), that does not justify a list of hundreds of millions "Citizens of the United States," even if some are notable.

Comment; I wish I could help out more with my initial reasoning, but the article contradicts itself numerous times with the information provided. The first sentence mentions that they were born in 2008, while it is subsequently mentioned that they were born in 2006, and it was mentioned later that they released their first song book in 2009. Whether they were 1 or 3 years old, this series of 4 sentences is pretty wonky. The article uses "he", "she", "his", and "her" to describe the subject, and is listed as a 1980s birthed male poet in the Categories. But even with all of this aside, notability STILL was not established in the article, and only talked about the names of the songs / books that were published, and not whether they were important. So while the first part of this comment has no bearing over whether the article should be kept or not, the lack of general notability does. Utopes (talk) 04:56, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. Searching under ‘ ترانه مکرم’ clearly shows sustained coverage by multiple independent sources in Farsi. She is a current artist so a lot of this is in social media or blogs and there’s also a lot of interviews. AFAIK the press in Iran do not cover popular music of this sort because they avoid straying unto areas that might become problematic, so I don’t see mainstream news coverage. Allowing for major differences in how things get written about in Iran, I conclude that she’s notable. Mccapra (talk) 03:09, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete She is maybe famous between some fans of pop music but being famous doesn't mean worthy of an article in Wikipedia aka notable.

- Comment. If she were British or American I’d definitely agree. However I don’t think sources for an Iranian popular artist are going to be what we’d look for in the case of a UK or US artist. 1. All sorts of sources are available in English because it’s a world language with a gigantic volume of sources of every sort. Farsi isn’t. Because it operates at a much smaller scale and has much smaller readerships we’re not going to find the same range material to work from. 2. Mainstream media in the west covers popular culture fairly well, meaning that RIS are generated. In Iran I think that’s much less the case, so the ‘quality’ sources about pop culture we can find in the English speaking world may just not exist in Iran. Thanks.

Seems to fail WP:NFICTION, not an ounce of indication that he has real world significance (reception, etc.). It's all fictional character biography and list of appearances in media - the usual in-universe fancruft. WP:BEFORE reveals the following sources in case someone wants to try to rescue this: 1) Michael Eury (22 May 2019). Back Issue #113. TwoMorrows Publishing. pp. 19–. GGKEY:DJ92XUFH4G1. few paragraphs of a WP:INTERVIEW with the creator Sam Hamm; note the interview is not about Henri, just one of many questions is about this character. 2) nothing more, everything else I see seems to be mentions in passing. Still, there are enough of those that I want to list this here - maybe someone can find something I missed?

WP:GNG Only 4 sources, all of which are gossip sites. No notability except one low-budget Netflix film and a small role on Dance Moms, probably written by someone close to the subject as promotion of the subject. Rcul4u998 (talk) 01:38, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Grace Saif. Similar to that page, the subject of the article has appeared in one "major" work (a Netflix production) and has not garnered the level of attention from reliable sources to merit a page at this time. KidAd (talk) 02:17, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- The result of that AfD was "Redirect", so citing it as a reason to delete is a bit inconsistent. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:38, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Isn't "Redirect" closer to "Delete" than "Keep" from the perspective of AfD? "Keep" means an article meets at least one WP:N standard and should be kept as a standalone article, while "Delete", "Redirect" and (to a lesser extent) "Merge" are generally proposed as actions when the topic does not meet any notability guideline. Unless expressly stated, an AfD being closed as "Delete" does not preclude a redirect from being created at that article title as long as it's appropriate. feminist (talk) 13:47, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

This article is receiving 20,000 views a day regardless of whether the film was low budget. Ava has been on television for 4 years and there has been plenty of media coverage. Unfortunately living in the UK, some American newspapers are blocking my accessing them, no idea why.James Kevin McMahon (talk) 14:15, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment one could argue that she is receiving so many views only because of the netflix film she has starred in. Having one movie credit and a small recurring role on one tv series does not make a subject notable, especially when the majority of the notable sources that do exists for her are within the context of the single film. While I don't doubt she may become more notable in the future, I do think this article is a few years premature... I mean, the article consists of just 12 sentences of content... I think it would need to be majorly majorly expanded to prove notability. Rcul4u998 (talk) 17:53, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep James Kevin McMahon requested I look at this article. At first, I thought she would be TOOSOON. But I did some digging and she has been covered in Reliable Sources over the course of several years. Bustle, Teen Vogue, MetroWest Daily News (local source) and People.com are reliable sources. Passes GNG. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 00:44, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Whether she has received significant coverage from her role in Tall Girl is never the question. The main question is whether this topic would be better covered in the Tall Girl article rather than in a standalone article. A number of sources currently in this article are quite questionable from a reliability perspective, but this Pop Culture article currently cited looks quite decent as a source and is from when she was still known as Ava Cota. Keep as there is more to her that we can write about than her role in the Netflix rom-com. feminist (talk) 16:37, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per a news search which brings back many hits. The question of whether the article should be merged / redirected to Tall Girl can be done outside of this AfD. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:38, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- I think the main concern people have with this article is WP:BLP1E, and unfortunately most news coverage right now doesn't solve that problem. We have to focus more on older sources that don't relate to Tall Girl. feminist (talk) 13:53, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

A historical person of dubious notability, and similarly dubious verifiability. The entire stub is sourced to a single link from a defunct website whose reliability I cannot ascertain. I did various searches, both under the various English spellings as well as with the provided kanji, and turned up nothing but mirrors of this article. As far as I can tell, the Japanese Wikipedia does not have a corresponding article on this individual. However, I am bringing this to AFD, rather than simply placing a PROD on it due to its notability issues, in the chance that people with more familiarity with reading Japanese might have something to say regarding the topic.

- Comment Without doing the research that I don't really have time for this morning, I will say that "富沢伊予守" doesn't parse as "Tomizawa Iyo" but as "Tomizawa Iyo-no-kami". If this person existed and was in fact the governor of Iyo Province, I would say it's a near-certainty that he is notable. That being said, a GBooks search appeared to indicate that he was in fact just a relatively minor retainer of the Sanada clan and was more associated with Kōzuke Province.

- Comment, for information of wikieditors, no article on Japanese WP of this person (see here). Coolabahapple (talk) 01:50, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Coolabahapple: A few points:
- Japanese Wikipedia hardly ever cites sources, and so is not especially useful when establishing notability, even of Japanese topics.
- Lots of notable (but obscure) Japanese topics don't have articles on ja.wiki -- Man'yō Shikō, Man'yōshū Jidai-kō, Fujiwara no Atsutaka, Fujiwara no Akinaka, and Fujiwara no Akitsuna jump to mind.
- The interwiki links (or lack thereof) are clearly visible on the page itself.

- Delete I agree. She has not accomplished notability outside of being Cardi’s sister, even on Love and Hip Hop she was just Cardi’s sister not a person with a storyline. Trillfendi (talk) 03:27, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect I think the page should be a redirect to Cardi since this subject has no notability of her own aside from the fame of her sister. A few notable publications as references, but mostly gossip and tabloids. Rcul4u998 (talk) 04:09, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect: Insofar as this is a valid search term point it at her actually notable sibling. While the sources in the article are all at least nominally about Hennessy, they all look like gossip rag pieces. Vogue is, as far as I can tell, the only exception, but a single good source does not notability impart. Rockphed (talk) 13:05, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. WP:NOTINHERITED only applies in cases where few or no reliable sources have taken notice of the subject. Going by the sources currently cited, Billboard and Vogue (RSP entry) are clearly not gossip rags; People magazine is considered reliable enough for BLPs as well (RSP entry). These three articles all focus on Hennessy and only mention Cardi in passing. WP:GNG is met. feminist (talk) 05:04, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect The People and Vogue sources are not significant and only refer to gossip content and based on her primary statements. The Billboard source seems a completely primary source. Seems to fail GNG, ANYBIO... Lourdes 15:06, 8 October 2019 (UTC)

- Delete Just similar to this Afd on Mugen Rao. It is also quite evident that this bio too might have been created for the purpose of promoting the subject. Abishe (talk) 11:49, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I have overhauled majority of the content in the article to match Wikipedia's standard and I think that the subject of the article satisfies WP:NACTOR, since the 'reality show' is not generic since there is a constant of mayhem in the social media due to the article and the people who follow the show rigorously support for their favourite contestant even going to the extremes. I think the subject is one of the above mentioned people and I have cited resources in the article. So I recommend to Keep the article.

- Delete Not one reliable source in the article is anything but about the TV show called Big Boss. The subject has been referred to by-the-by in all these articles that primarily address the show. There is no other significant coverage of the subject. Fails ANYBIO, fails GNG, fails NACTOR. Should be simply deleted till the subject gains more notability. Lourdes 15:02, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
