- Keep user's obvious keep !vote, but failed to properly bold a keep so I did it for them. Nolte is notable because of the discussion of his far-right positions. His habit at Deutsche Burschenschaft is well coverd by the media. --Outdoor-Bro (talk) 23:20, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Outdoor-Bro: You need to prove that with "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" if it does not meet any other applicable notability guideline for people. Also always remember to bullet your comments her at AFD. ミラP 23:39, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep based on the sources reaarding the candidate's positions. The article needs work, and shoring up. but WP:NOTCLEANUP Wm335td (talk) 19:24, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for standing as candidates in legislative elections they did not actually win, but this makes no other credible claim that he has preexisting notability for other reasons. The fact that it's possible to show a couple of local media sources about his political opinions does not automatically make him more special than other candidates, either, because every candidate in every election can always show four or five pieces of that — some evidence of campaign coverage is simply and routinely expected to always exist for all candidates in all elections, so to make a candidate notable for that you have to show that he got a lot more of it than the norm, and five footnotes is not evidence of that. So no, nothing here makes him markedly more special than other unsuccessful political candidates. Bearcat (talk) 22:24, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete unelected candidates for public office are not notable for such. Any candidate will get coverage. We need something exceptional to justify an article, and that is not here.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:39, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete fails WP:GNG, WP:NPOL. SportingFlyer T·C 00:45, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep based on a quick search I see that the subject is a far-right candidate and that makes him notable: some of the coverage is in foreign press. Note: one does not have to win an election to be notable.Also sources are not always in the article WP:NEXIST Not sure I will have time to add them, but I will if I am feeling ambitious. Lightburst (talk) 02:17, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- There's no such thing as "notable for being a candidate". Candidates can sometimes have preexisting notability for other reasons besides the candidacy per se (Cynthia Nixon, for instance, is not losing her article just because she didn't win when she ran for political office, because she had already cleared our notability standards for actors and thus already had an article years before she was ever a candidate for anything), and they can occasionally receive so much more coverage than other candidates get (i.e. Christine O'Donnell, who got such a massive firestorm of coverage that her article is actually longer, and cites significantly more sources, than the article about the guy she lost to) that their candidacy is demonstrably much more special than most other people's candidacies — but candidates are not automatically notable just for being candidates, regardless of where on the ideological spectrum they happen to fall, and neither of the ways that a candidate can become more notable than the norm have been shown true here. Bearcat (talk) 16:21, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Info: Nolte is notable in Germany beside of his political activities in AfD and as chairman of Young Alternative also in the fight about German Burschenschaft, conservative against far-rights. He supported the far-rights positions, were German Burschenschaft is today. --Outdoor-Bro (talk) 11:55, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

- One article in two sources is now considered "significant" coverage? :/ – Muboshgu (talk) 19:27, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:GNG with lack of multiple, independent, reliable sources of significant coverage. In case anyone considers OurDailyBears.com, I generally don't consider SB Nation reliable. Also consider guideline WP:WHYN:
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.
There's not enough coverage to take it beyond it's current stub state. Even the current state is exaggerated with unneeded sections at this point. Per MOS:BODY:Short paragraphs and single sentences generally do not warrant their own subheading.
(And let's not resort to WP:NOTDIARY and excessive stat line fillers.)—Bagumba (talk) 07:17, 3 November 2019 (UTC) - Keep Yes, articles in two different sources is enough to pass WP:GNG despite some others' assertions above. Read the guideline, people. Smartyllama (talk) 18:43, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- Smartyllama, I've read 'em. It doesn't say "two" anywhere. It says "significant coverage" and that AJC.com piece is insignificant. There is one piece of significant coverage presented here, which is not "multiple sources". – Muboshgu (talk) 19:04, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

- Comment It's an extreme interpretation of "multiple sources" to mean just 2 sources.—Bagumba (talk) 09:14, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- "Multiple sources" has always meant two or more. That's what multiple means and how it's always been interpreted. Not even sure why this was relisted - myself and others have cited the AJC piece and the Waco Tribune piece specifically. Smartyllama (talk) 17:19, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- Because it's not just a count of the number of votes, it's an assessment of the arguments. And really, it's 1+1⁄2 sources. The Waco Tribune piece is legit, but the AJC piece is more of a routine mention piece. Keeping this article would be a watering down of WP:SIGCOV. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:23, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- I have not commented on this despite my initial prod, but it is mostly because I am not sure how much weight to give a sixth-man conference award in terms of significance. It seems minimal to me, especially because the AJC article appears to be the only coverage and it is a re-print of something called "Diehards". (At the bottom:
The post Baylor F Terry Maston wins Big 12 Sixth Man of the Year, two others honored appeared first on Diehards.
) Possibly a contributor-written non-RS source, but I can find no details on what "Diehards" is or was. It simply redirects to the college sports section of AJC these days. Yosemiter (talk) 18:38, 11 November 2019 (UTC)- Yosemiter, all I can see is that www.diehards.com redirects to the AJC college sports page. Conference sixth man awards are not significant enough for WP:NCOLLATH, not that anyone is proposing that anyway. It all comes down to assessment of the depth of the AJC piece, and, if it counts as "significant", whether or not "two" sources (the AJC piece and Waco Trib) are enough for GNG. The AJC piece has six short paragraphs, the first three are about Maston and the last three don't mention him. These are the three paragraphs (without the paragraph breaks) in the AJC article about Maston:
Baylor basketball forward Terry Maston earned Big 12 Sixth Man of the Year for his performance throughout the 2017-18 season. Point guard Manu Lecomte and center Jo Lual-Acuil were also honored. Maston earned sixth man honors after leading a massive turnaround in conference play. The Bears went on a five-game winning streak to move back into NCAA tournament contention. Maston averaged more than 16 points per game over the streak.Overall, he reached 20 points five times in Big 12 play. The Bears went 4-1 in those games. For the season, Maston averaged 10.8 points and 5.6 rebounds per game in just 22 minutes. He’s the fourth Baylor player to win the award along with LaceDarius Dunn (2009), Quincy Acy (2011) and Taurean Prince (2015).

- So, I did some digging into DieHards. It was a series of college sports media websites owned by the Cox Media Group. It was launched in late 2017 and shuttered in early 2018 with all former websites republished/archived under the AJC website. So it was not contributor-based like SBNation, but it is also a site you would absolutely expect to see a list of award winners covered, in this case by Baylor and Big 12 beat writer Shehan Jeyarajah. The reason I was hesitant was if this had actually been published in the AJC itself, I probably would not have called it routine. But, as it was a Baylor reporter reporting on Baylor and the Big12 on a Big12/Baylor specific website (originally published on diehards.com/big-12 or diehards.com/baylor, the actual link appears to be missing in Wayback), then it would be WP:ROUTINE, especially considering the brevity of the subject's coverage as described above. This may not change the opinion of the keep voters (@Lightburst, Editorofthewiki, Wm335td, and Smartyllama:), but they should at least be informed that it was not published in the AJC. Because of these reasons, I lean towards delete with only very minor local coverage (1 non-routine article in the Waco paper about a player in Waco, and only after he won an award, and a few sentences about conference awards in a conference-specific sports website). Yosemiter (talk) 20:37, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- Yosemiter, thank you for this! – Muboshgu (talk) 22:40, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Lightburst, Editorofthewiki, Wm335td, and Smartyllama: I don't really want to badger anyone, but do any of you keep voters wish to re-evaluate the GNG evaluations based on the fact that the Baylor-based press release that was archived at the AJC website was not published by the Atlanta Journal Constitution? If your opinion has not changed, that is fine, it just seems that it was assumed that your GNG evaluations were based on it being published by AJC itself and not a school-specific news site. Thank you, Yosemiter (talk) 17:49, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Note on the backstory of this article as it's a little confusing: From what I can piece together, there was a previous version of this created in 2005 that was deleted as nonsense. It was recreated as an article about the game in 2006. That version was the subject of the previous AFD in 2007. In 2011 that page was moved to Moose (game), and in 2013 that page was redirected to the one currently under discussion. This is obviously not optimal as it obscures the history, but the redirected article also had no valid references attached. If consensus is to delete the redirected page should go with it in my opinion. If consensus is to keep it, I think a history merge may be in order, and a tag for the previous AFD should be applied to the talk page (due to the above described series of events I was completely unaware of the previous AFD when nominating) Beeblebrox (talk) 21:36, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Article is entirely primary-sourced. It's been flagged for a few months on the talk page, and the author has responded. This isn't really workable for a BLP, and it needs third-party sources to exist. WP:BEFORE shows literally zero third-party coverage of Greaves. Director of an institute may pass WP:NPROF - if that's acceptable with literally zero third-party sources, then the article needs to be cut to a stub evidencing just that, and not serve as a lengthy advertisement/resume for the subject.

- Weak keep. I definitely don't think that merely being a full professor at Oxford is enough by itself for notability; certainly it doesn't pass any WP:PROF criterion except by some special pleading that somehow Oxford is different. But I think that most Oxford full professors should likely be notable by some other criterion; otherwise, why would Oxford have chosen them? In this case I agree with Xxanthippe that the citation counts are likely enough (in a low citation field) for WP:PROF#C1. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:07, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

- As I'm new to the process of AFD, I would like to understand what are we trying to establish here. Is it Highlander Brigade is genuine? If it is the question then Highlander Brigade is a genuine and notable group. The group has 9.2+ follows on Facebook[1], 5.6k+ on Instagram[2] and some 1.1k+ on [3]. The regular viewers of the Indian Super League will know Highlander Brigade is mentioned and talked about in every NorthEast United pre-match discussion on the Star network. But for the given references, one is directly from the club itself, two is given to show or prove the claims in three and four is an article from Fisto Sports, a national sports news website and I don't believe they cover everyone for the sake of it.Bin(talk) 02:34, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- @BinBoro: We need articles which pass our WP:GNG general notability guideline. It's not enough that sources exist, it's not enough that we can verify something exists, we need multiple sources which show secondary, independent, reliable groups have adequately covered the topic. Fisto Sports FAQ says they'll write an article on pretty much anything, see here, so we can't use them as a reliable source. The article also needs a rewrite as much of the prose isn't encyclopaedic - it feels like what the group would write about itself and isn't adequately sourced. I'd be fine draftifying this until more sources can be found. SportingFlyer T·C 02:39, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Yeah, I see how Fisto is a problem. The Northeast one is good though. I'm surprised there isn't any coverage in Assamese. Significant media coverage is what we are looking for. 02:58, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Ok, I understand @SportingFlyer:. The News Mill website and Khelnow, a leading sports news website, has written about the agitation of the Highlander Brigade towards the club NorthEast United FC. The sources are given here.[1][2]Further Highlander Brigade is mentioned in a tweet from the Indian Super League[3], the league in which NorthEast United play and by NorthEast United in a YouTube video[4].There are not many Assamese news papers online, most of them still have paper newspapers.Bin(talk) 03:05, 13 November 2019 (UTC)

- Redirect per GiantSnowman. Current sourcing certainly does not indicate subject meeting WP:GNG but what information can be retained would be useful for the club's article. None of the provided sources demonstrate WP:GNG: two of them are just instagram posts, and one is about the group supporting a FIFA video game event. The Fisto article is interesting but similar coverage from more reliable sources would help establish the subject as notable independent of the club. Jay eyem (talk) 02:54, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Jay eyem: Please look into the following references by Deccan Chronicle: one, The Assam Tribune: two and Dailyhunt: three (BinBoro (talk) 19:32, 14 November 2019 (UTC))
- I am not seeing these sources fulfilling the need for significant coverage. The first source does not address the group in detail. The second source is sending me to a video of a protest, so I'm not sure if that's what was intended but I have my doubts that would constitute significant coverage. The third source is a passing mention of the group in the context of the larger article. I am also unsure about the reliability of these sources. Jay eyem (talk) 01:48, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of Dungeons & Dragons deities. Despite the poor condition of the target article, the broader topic of religion in D&D is one that has attracted independent attention; additionally, such lists are broadly equivalent to other fictional character lists widely maintained for major franchises.

Most of the sources refer to discrimination against North Indian labourers in general and not just Biharis. A lot of the stuff is original research connecting Bihars relative poverty with the discrimination despite the sources themselves making no such connection. It seems to be written as if it’s somebodies personal essay. Ideally, the page should be either deleted or renamed to “Anti-North India sentiment”. The remaining news sources could be merged into Bihar or Biharis. I’m new to this and used the twinkle tool so apologies if this isn’t formatted correctly.

- Keep. I don’t agree with the nominator. I haven’t looked at all 59 sources but the ones I have checked are all specifically about Biharis and not just North Indians generally. The topic is clearly notable on this basis. Some of the incidents in the article are a bit weak in terms of how far we can be sure they are really instances of anti-Bihari sentiment and there are some bold sweeping statements that are probably not right in terms of tone. However a need for some pruning and rewriting does not make a case for deletion. Mccapra (talk) 03:24, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Turning to the references ...

This reference from Yahoo Finance and this announcement on Globe Newswire are entirely based on a company announcement, fails ORGIND. This Techcrunch article is also based on a funding announcement from the company, fails ORGIND. This sfgate.com reference is based on an interview with the CEO, fails ORGIND.

- The NYT article and-to a lesser extent-the techcrunch article are reliable sources and count toward N. GNG/SIGCOV doesn't specify an exact number of sources necessary to pass so these two, plus the less notable Digiday and CoolMomTech sources (which seem to be closer to blogs?) might work. However WP:ORGCRIT pretty much means "apply GNG extra strictly", requiring a stronger level of independence in the sourcing (specifically calling out blogs) and in the depth of coverage (note that the newest source we have is from 2013, the rest are from 2011). That and the fact it's an out of date stub (note that according to CoolMomTech the app has significantly changed direction) tip me into Delete. Hydromania (talk) 06:22, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

- Smerge (to The Riftwar Cycle if necessary)... although what I'd really like to advocate for here is a marginally more radical approach. Feist's The Riftwar Cycle is unquestionably notable, with quite a bit of independent discussion in reliable sources, even if the sourcing at that article doesn't show it. Having a cogent, thorough article about the long-running series of books necessitates a discussion of the setting, but any halfway competent effort, even in strict summary style, is probably going to be too long to easily fit into an article whose primary purpose is to serve as a list of books. I'd like to propose that the best solution here is to take the Midkemia article, along with Kelewan, Novindus, and everything listed under "Nations" in the navigation template, and brutally cull the content into a summary-style article probably best titled Setting of The Riftwar Cycle. That would be at least vaguely policy compliant (per WP:SPINOUT and the willingness to accept plot and setting summaries as essential to understanding the context of fictional works) and does in fact have some reliable sources available, as there's been at least limited discussion of Feist's adaptation of Nahuatl and Eastern trappings for some of his imagery in place of the genre-standard Tolkeinesque medieval European pastiche.

- Redirect to The Riftwar Cycle, with a selective merge of any reliably sourced material deemed useful. Squeamish Ossifrage makes a good case for a single general setting summary article that can be reliably sourced and a redirect would preserve in the article history any useful content for that enterprise. If the general article never gets written, a redirect is still a reasonable course, as this is a plausible search term and redirects are cheap. --

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Entirely non-notable and probably an autobiography given that Special:Contributions/Jannajoos has only created this page yesterday and is just expanding it and linking all of Ford's non-notable roles (likely just an extra) to this page.
The page, if not deleted, is terribly written and needs WP:DYNAMITE, but I just don't see the notability to keep that. It's full of nonsense aggrandizement and weasel words and vague allusions and sentence fragments. And the top "reference" is to the Wikipedia main page. JesseRafe (talk) 13:46, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Note: not an autobiography, but per this edit summary, the SPA Jannajoos (who is evidently using her real name), identifies the subject of this article as "[her] client". Put paid editor notice on her talk page. JesseRafe (talk) 16:20, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Further note: Janna Joos can't seem to help themselves on their own talk page (and is probably rewriting another missive to no one as we speak or otherwise continuing WP:NOTGETTINGIT), but I just wanted to point out somewhere that someone has been trying to make an article on Ford for over a decade, whether another manager (or Manage her?) or Ford herself.

Unfortunately all this article achieves is an announcement of Ms. Thach Hickman's existence and brief professional background, violating WP:RESUME, WP:PROMOTION, and WP:EXIST. The two sources currently in the article are brief profiles explaining her possibly unique status as a woman Mormon doctor, but those are from the Mormon media and may not qualify for the significant coverage rule at WP:SIGCOV.

- Delete I have to object to the line "her possibly unique status as a woman Mormon doctor". A- this is a problematic way to refer to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. B- there have been women physicians who were members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints since the 19th-century, such as Ellen Shipp and Emma Penrose. BYU named residence halls after such women over 60 years ago. Hickman is at the start of her career. She may at some point be notable, but not yet. On the sources about religion and science, being held up as an example of someone who sees these are coexisting in an article written by someone else is not the way to notability. What we would have to see is Hickman writing articles or books about the subject and then having 3rd party coverage of her published work on the subject. I want to include this article, but Hickman is a professional at the start of her career, she is not yet at the level of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:47, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry but those two articles are written in a fashion indicating that the authors think she is unique, and one is written by an entity called Mormon Women Project. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 03:02, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

- Delete - Entirely made up of in-universe plot information.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
I worry that this article is written more as an essay (WP:NOTESSAY) and based mostly in primary sources. 18 of the 27 references, two out of three sources, are authored by Harsha Walia, the creator of the concept the article talks about, including 16 that directly reference Undoing Border Imperialism, the book that coined this term. Four other sources consist in the publication Decolonizing Feminism: Challenging Connections between Settler Colonialism and Heteropatriarchy, which are the base of the Settler colonialism section. This means that apparently only 5 of the 27 references are not primary sources. Jamez42 (talk) 11:02, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

- Delete I agree with the nominator this isn’t an encyclopaedic article. It’s not really even an essay as it has disjointed sections that do not add up to a coherent argument. It’s a sort of book review with other related stuff thrown in. Walia’s book looks to me to be notable in itself, so possibly the entire article could be repurposed on that basis, but otherwise I can’t see a basis for keeping it. Mccapra (talk) 12:01, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete — Totally agree. The article doesn't meet general WP:GNG. The sources are generally primary. One source is behind a paywall. [1] I read an article almost completely and I think it's someone's invention of a new way to describe (In highly biased, leftist way) typical immigration policy of any country in the world which is focused on its restriction. I also noted that there are some mentions in the news[2] but they don't seem reliable to use it as sources. DAVRONOVA.A. ✉ ⚑ 12:10, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - The nom mentions a number of page-quality issues (over-reliance on primary sources, over-reliance on sources that are not independent, written in essay-style). I think they are correct that these are issues with the quality of the page that should be addressed. However, these are not issues for AFD which is concerned with whether the article should be deleted or not, AFD is not clean-up. The only issue raised here that cannot be addressed through simple editing is whether there is sufficient, independent, reliable sourcing available (not necessarily cited in the article at present) to sustain the notability of the article. I find that there is based on the following sources discussing the Walia's theory of "Border imperialism": 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. I do wonder if the book might be a better target for this article than the theory per se, but it appears notable either way. FOARP (talk) 12:13, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- @FOARP: There is thing called common sense. A new term to describe a policy of cross-border movements restrictions in case of war/crisis doesn't make the term notable by default (WP:NAD, WP:MADEUP). At least 3 sources you have provided do not analyse, evaluate or interpret the subject (term) itself: the two from "the nation"[3][4], and a Cambridge one.[5]. It's rather embeded into a more wider research on non-directly related to the term matters of immigration. The term is mentioned in these cases but not in a way to make it notable. Another source you have delivered is a simple advertisement of the book.[6] In other words neither of 4 sources scrutinize the subject by itself as it required per WP:GNG. There is also an alternative to a deletion: to move the part of the article into Harsha Walia one as a part of her works.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexander Davronov (talk • contribs)
- I think you are possibly mistaking me saying this concept appears notable with me agreeing with it in some way. Just so we're clear on this: I do not think this concept is particularly useful. The sources demonstrate the notability of this concept by citing it and describing it - they do not need to do more than this to demonstrate notability. Objections to the article based on the present state of it, unless they are invoking WP:TNT (which I do not think justified as it is eminently savable), do not invoke a WP:DELREASON. FOARP (talk) 20:58, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- @FOARP: I don't think about whether you agree or not with what this article is saying. I'm pointing out to the sources which can't make up a separate article. There is simply not enough of them that could make it to pass WP:GNG. I also checked out the first source you have mentioned: it doesn't analyze the subject closely either, making 5 out of 10 sources unreliable for notability. If you would have a good research on the statements in the article proving the subject's theory and reviewing these works I would agree to keep it in place and clean up but not otherwise.

- Delete - sure AfD is not cleanup, but that does not apply here as there is nothing left after a cleanup. Most of the article is just a summary of the book, including making contentious statements in Wikivoice. There is also a tangent on settler colonialism which is based mostly on a single paper. It also cites three times an opinion piece by Walia in TeleSUR, listed at WP:RSP as deprecated for being "a Bolivarian propaganda outlet". This topic is not notable aside from the author (who already has an article), as largely borne out by the 10 links above. -Crossroads- (talk) 04:30, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I find the arguments of FOARP persuasive. I do not find the nominator's argument persuasive. AfD is not clean up and if the article is a ref bomb of primary sources, we can fix that. Sources do exist and therefore this article merits inclusion. Wm335td (talk) 19:41, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

Overstated "brawl" was a run-of-the-mill verbal and shoving incident among basketball players with no major punches, injuries, or any suspensions as major as those at List of people banned or suspended by the NBA. Per WP:SPORTSEVENT, a single game is generally not notable. As a single event, this fails guideline WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE with coverage dying within days. There are no major write-ups months later to show its WP:LASTING impact. It violates WP:NOTADIARY to go into this play-by-play detail. A few sentences at 2018–19 Houston Rockets season and 2018–19 Los Angeles Lakers season as well as the bios of those suspended is sufficient. —Bagumba (talk) 10:56, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

- Comment; I know I created this article, but I could probably count on two hands the number of brawls that have resulted in 9+ games of suspensions for the parties involved; "run-of-the-mill" is a little misleading, I'd think? If you look at other brawl articles which I modelled this article after, such as the Knicks-Nuggets brawl, they delve into intricate details of the altercation, and other historical games of significance seem to follow this model, which I'm confused about your WP:NOTADIARY concern. Similar good articles like that one are also primarily modelled on primary sources. I had this article reviewed in IRC because of my concern about notability, but no issues were raised there, which is why I'm slightly surprised that my first article is now on a AfD. 2506Locks (talk) 15:31, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- @2506Locks: Yeah, it sucks when you patterned it after an existing article, did due dilligence at WP:AFC, but the article you started is still being questioned. If you can (re-)read WP:NEVENT and are able to identify later sources that detail the histroical significance of this, I would reconsider. Regarding the Knicks–Nuggets article, WP:OTHERSTUFF might apply. I havent looked at that brawl, but it might be more significant than this one, or perhaps that one should be deleted as well. While AfC met one editor's approval, AfD offers a wider audience to reach a consensus. This discussion just started, and others might have different perspectives.

The result was no consensus. Good points were made on both sides of the keep-delete spectrum: sources exist for turning this into a proper article; the existence of this list depends on the (not yet finalized) categories and parent articles; and that WP:TNT is the best option for this topic. – sgeureka t•c 11:10, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

- Keep We don't delete things simply because they are unsourced, especially lists of obvious blue links, like this. Per WP:BEFORE, the onus is on the nominator to search for sources if that's the issue, "Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability The minimum search expected is...". There are certainly sources to be found such as Rob Grant's top 10 comic science fiction novels. Andrew D. (talk) 11:03, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep: I agree with Andrew Davidson - Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone lists seems to be met as it's a major literary genre and the list topic could, in principle, satisfy Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists#Selection criteria as there is enough to demarcate between what is and isn't relevant, thus satisfying the Wikipedia is not a directory hurdle. I agree that the sourcing could be improved, especially for the selection criteria, but I wouldn't say it's worthy of dynamite. SITH (talk) 11:56, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep This is a valid list. Some items might require a reference. No one would doubt that The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a comedy. I look at the editorial reviews for at at amazon.com and I see them specifically mention how funny it is. Its article begins with its opening sentence stating it is "a comedy science fiction". If the main article linked to doesn't describe something as a comedy, then a reference should be found to keep that item on the list. And if the main article does list that information but you sincerely doubt it to be accurate, post a link saying a reference is needed there. Dream Focus 13:55, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep a useful list. As a stand alone list it makes sense. Lack of sources is never a deletion rationale per WP:NEXIST and WP:NOTCLEANUP. If I feel ambitious I add refs. Lightburst (talk) 18:09, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:SALAT as too broad. I'm guessing that maybe 10% of all science fiction is comical, and this list encompasses all media. That's way too much. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:13, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete As a WP:INDISCRIMINATE list. There is no distinct criteria for inclusion whatsoever and membership of the list appears highly subjective. For example, would Big Hero 6 really be considered "comic" or just lighthearted kids entertainment that includes goofy moments? Might be encyclopedic if totally rewritten or refactored, but I doubt that any of the keep voters here plan to so much as touch it with regards to fixing its systemic issues.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 20:16, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

- Delete - In its current form, the list seems completely subjective. As it's not a mainstream genre, I'd say the only way such a list is going to be viable is if there's a requirement for there to be a source that lists each series as such. TTN (talk) 22:39, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. I don't see a problem with a list like this being unsourced. If all the entries are blue links and all the articles identify them in that category then that's fine. I don't see any shortage of sources discussing science fiction humour, The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Science Fiction and Fantasy covers it from page 401 to 404. Nor is "not a proper genre" any kind of argument for deletion; Science Fiction Film: A Critical Introduction discusses this issue pages 110 to 111 and draws a distinction (with examples) of the difference between a commedy science fiction film and science fiction with some humour elements (which addresses one other objection raised). The argument that the subject is too broad doesn't wash with me either. The list is currently reasonably short (we have much longer lists than this one) and we still have the option to break it into separate pages by media. SpinningSpark 00:55, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep on the condition that each entry must have a reliable source saying in toto that it's "comic science fiction". ミラP 01:25, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - But the inclusion criteria doesn't match the description for comic science fiction. Sourcing doesn't need to be here as long as it is in the article. I don't think Quantum Leap belongs on the list. StrayBolt (talk) 06:32, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete There is not a tight enough definition to clearly say what does and does not belong here. Then there is the lack of sourcing showing this is a recognized group.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:26, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - At least leaning that way right now. Here are the problems:
- The largest section duplicates List of comic science fiction films
- the list is original research. Unsourced, and none of the articles I've checked so far have sources calling the work "comic science fiction"
- A search for '"comic science fiction" list' returns zero reliable sources, and lots based on Wikipedia (never a good sign)
- It seems like this is one of many ways to write some combination of "science fiction and comedy"? even opening the search terms, basically all of the halfway decent sources I'm seeing are about films (which, again, already have a separate article).
- We can take any two genres and create a list of movies at their intersection. That doesn't mean that sufficient reliable sources have written about that intersection across media to meet our standards for lists. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 03:25, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
@Rhododendrites: Did you look at the article by David Langford I linked above in the Greenwood Encyclopedia? If not, would you please take a look (use "humorous science fiction" as a search term to find it. It begins on page 401). Langford gives a wide ranging discussion explicitly naming numerous works. Also, his bibliography indicates that there are quite a few other reliable sources available. SpinningSpark 12:21, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- The entry is on "humor", not a particular genre, and he even says "humor is not a distinct genre like science fiction or fantasy and mixes easily with many fictional modes." It would be a fine source to use if we have an article on humor and science fiction, but it would be original research to say that this source supports examples of a particular scifi genre. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:59, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- I never claimed that it is a genre, that is not a requirement for an article in any case. It certainly didn't stop Langford writing one. I only claim that we have enough reliable sources to justify a Wikipedia article on the subject. And of course he doesn't need to title it "Humor in science fiction". He is writing in a science fiction encyclopedia so that is taken for granted. SpinningSpark 17:06, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- The article on the subject this is based on calls it a subgenre. It's straightforwardly OR to say that an entry about humor in a scifi encyclopedia is about that genre. If it's really intended to be a "list of any media of any genre that sources say have some elements of comedy and science fiction"... that's a straightforward fail per WP:NOT and WP:SALAT. By the same logic, presumably any entry in that encyclopedic of scifi which lists examples could sustain a "list of any media that feature elements of [whatever] and science fiction"? — Rhododendrites talk \\ 17:49, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- Indeed. If a respectable encyclopaedia of SF contains an article about some aspect such as humour then this is obviously prima facie evidence that this topic is both notable and encyclopaedic. Such a topic is therefore valid here too. Andrew D. (talk) 18:35, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- ... It's absurd to think that [specialist encyclopedia subject] + [heading in that specialist encyclopedia] = [appropriate list topic for Wikipedia]. Either this is a list about a genre, in which case this entry is not about that genre and contributes nothing, or we're just cobbling together two elements like "humor" and "science fiction" and then populating said list with absolutely anything that has "humor" and science fiction"? — Rhododendrites talk \\ 03:50, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

- Keep as article index per WP:LISTPURP, complementary to Category:Comic science fiction per WP:CLN. It should be obvious that if it is appropriate to include in the category (a structure which has existed since 2007), then it is appropriate for the list. "Overbreadth" could be dealt with by splitting into sublists by medium, time period, country of origin, etc. Note also there is a parent article at comic science fiction, which has not yet had any talk page discussion on the issue of inclusion, genre definition or recognition, etc. postdlf (talk) 17:36, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- So presumably if that category were deleted, you would support deleting this? After all, none (or none that I've seen) of the articles in that category have sources saying it's in the "comic science fiction" genre, as is required for genres. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 17:49, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- I think in any event the fact we have a parallel category and a parent article means that all of this content should be discussed together, and not just raised for the first time in the AFD of a sublist. Particularly since you're really the only one so far who has clearly presented an argument that there are unfixable problems here, rather than just complaining about things that could potentially be fixed. postdlf (talk) 14:59, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

An actor who fails notability guidelines for actors. The subject is credited with 5 appearances: one of which is non-notable we series. I couldn't establish if the subject had significant role in it. Other credit is for a video of song Ehsaas Song, which is currently at AfD as well. Third credit is for a 2019 film, Sridevi Bungalow. In this film, the subject doesnt have a significant/lead role unlike as stated in the film's article. The subject had lead role only in two films (from 2016). Thus failing notability criteria for actors.
The only (and little) coverage for the subject in reliable sources was about the 2016 films. That coverage was not in-depth either. After that, no coverage can be found. In short subject lacks significant coverage. Hence failing general notability criteria as well.
On a side note, the article was created by sockpuppet who's master was blocked a while ago, but it is borderline for speedy. The SPI can be found here. The history is muddled with contributions by socks. —usernamekiran(talk) 05:21, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

- Weak keep — IMO no significant sources coverage is given, even though there are some citations present. As per 2pou (those sources aren't used in fact) I believe that it must be kept but shortened and rewritten from a non-fictional perspective. We also may spare it by moving to Transformers article or related one. DAVRONOVA.A. ✉ ⚑ 11:48, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. I reviewed sources 2pou provides, but reviews of a toy can make the toy notable but not the fictional character. And mentions in passing like few sentences about his death scene cut from a movie are still pretty much trivial coverage that fails in-depth requirement.

- Link 2: An obit for a former MCCJ director. MCCJ mentioned a few times, nothing that demonstrates notability.
- Link 3: Another obit for the same person. MCCJ featured more prominently, enough to be used as a decent reference in an article, but I'm not convinced it demonstrates notability.
- Link 4: A gussied-up press release. "Here is an event that will happen in the community!" Nothing demonstrates notability.

- Virginia Inclusive Communities does gets at least some local coverage [17], but does not come up in a search of the Washington Post, where I would expect to find important Virginia civic organizations. On the other hand, the Richmond Times-Dispatch offers deep coverage of VIC [18], so I suggest Keep.Strandvue (talk) 14:05, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
- You say that the RTD offers "deep coverage" on VCIC. Here's the first result in that Google link you posted. Note the URL and the text at the bottom of the article: "This feature [...] is brought to you by the featured organization". Not an independent source, therefore fails to demonstrate notability.
- Here's the second Google hit. An opinion column by a VCIC steering committee. Not independent.
- The third hit. A profile of the organization's president. As with MCCJ, there's enough info here to use it as a reference but I don't believe the profile demonstrates notability of the VCIC itself.
- The fourth. An editorial, three paragraphs long, congratulating awardees of a VCIC award.
- Fifth. A column by the VCIC's president.
- All of these articles are either not independent or are wp:TRIVIALCOVERAGE of the subject. The fact that the organization exists, and has been mentioned in scores of newspaper articles and columns, does not demonstrate notability if those articles are not substantial, explicitly about the organization, and independent of the organization. I'm not trying to be flippant here, but an honest question: Can you make an argument that the links you posted demonstrate notability under wp:ORGCRIT, or can you find a source that does? Because I don't think they do. Ignatzmice•talk 21:19, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Hate to do this since I actually really like Foxes and Peppers' music, but literally every source in this article is WP:PRIMARY or just tangential mentions. His albums were small independent releases mostly sold at furry cons. He hasn't charted a single. Mainstream media has paid him no attention. While he's worked with some notable people on his music, notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. 5,000 sales of an album is nothing, despite the fact that I enjoy the music. A WP:BEFORE found nothing of note on Gnews, Gbooks, or regular Google, just sites selling his music, YouTube uploads, social media, and the like.

- Delete: fails WP:NSONG, and the only reason for the article's existence is because the creator has been trying to create articles for every song written by Lynsey de Paul, however obscure the song. Didn't chart anywhere and there is no in-depth coverage of the song, as it was released well after the group's 1970s heyday and just before their brief resurgence in 1986 with remixed versions of their biggest hits. As it was a stand-alone single, there is no parent album to redirect to – I would be open to a redirect to The Real Thing (UK band), but with so many other songs called "We Got Love" by other artists and given the obscurity of this track, I wonder whether it would be worth it.
