Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Authors
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Authors. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Authors|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Authors. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

WP:BLP of a lawyer and author, not properly referenced as passing inclusion criteria for lawyers or authors. As always, notability doesn't hinge on the things the article says, it hinges the quality and depth and WP:GNG-worthiness of the referencing that's used to support the things it says -- people don't get articles for having had jobs, they get articles for having had their work in those jobs covered and analyzed as significant by third party reliable sources, such as media and books. But this is referenced almost entirely to content self-published by companies or organizations the subject was directly affiliated with, which are not support for notability, and the only media source present at all is a single article of the "local man does stuff" variety in the community hyperlocal of an individual city neighbourhood, which is not enough to get him over GNG all by itself if it's all he's got for third party coverage.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have better referencing than just primary sources created by his own employers. Bearcat (talk) 19:26, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors, Law, and Canada. Bearcat (talk) 19:26, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: He was in charge of the ADR institute of Canada, a national organization, and described as one of the leading experts in his field. His book, Nelson on ADR, is cited as being "the most comprehensive guide on ADR," and is taught at major institutions around Canada. He also taught courses all around the world, passing notability for academics. Additionally he was responsible for introducing ADR to Russia and Albania, and introducing new legislation in Albania. He opened the ADR center in Tehran was cited as being "widely covered" in Albanian media. He also acted before the Supreme Court of Canada in the landmark case Rodriguez v. British Columbia AG. From all that, I infer him to be notable and passing the guidelines. PD8 (talk) 19:52, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- Leading an organization is not an instant notability freebie, if the article isn't supported by WP:GNG-worthy reliable source media coverage about that work. Appearing before the Supreme Court of Canada on a case is not an instant notability freebie, if the article isn't supported by GNG-worthy reliable source media coverage about that work. Writing a book is not an instant notability freebie, if the article isn't supported by GNG-worthy reliable source media coverage about that work.
- And on and so forth: it's not the job titles he's had that establish the notability, it's the amount of GNG-worthy reliable source media coverage that he has or hasn't received about his work that establishes the notability. An article cannot be supported by content self-published by the subject and his own employers — it has to be supported by third party coverage about him in media that he didn't have personal editorial control of. Bearcat (talk) 20:05, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: Subject Fails Basic GNG and does not show notability to be included in an encyclopedia. Leading an organization is not an instant notability freebie - I support this.

Lack of notability: there is not even one external source that confirms his notability - unless one would consider the books he has authored/edited as enough proof of his notability. Lova Falk (talk) 17:26, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

- Speedy keep WP:SK3, faulty nomination. The article as nominated had sufficient book reviews for WP:AUTHOR, and these reviews are in-depth independently published sources that are entirely about Mullen's work (the exact thing we would expect notability-contributing sources to focus on). As well as WP:AUTHOR they provide WP:GNG notability. The nomination statement totally ignores these and falsely states there are no sources, seeing the list of published books but somehow blind to the reviews of the books. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:16, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

Eighteen years on from the first AfD nomination, notability standards have risen significantly. I don't see how the subject of this article passes WP:NACTOR or WP:NWRITER in 2025. If he hadn't been in 2004's Thunderbirds, I doubt that the article would exist today. But anyone familiar with that film will know that the role was minor, and the rest of his acting career consists of TV episode / short film / TV movie parts. No "significant" roles as defined by WP:NACTOR.
Neither is the subject notable as a businessman, educator, or published writer. This local news piece is the only independent coverage that I could find.
The article is now attracting WP:NOTCV-ish edits like this, so before anything more gets added I think there ought to be a re-evaluation of whether the subject really is notable or not. At the moment it seems to hinge on whether Thunderbirds was a major role, which it wasn't. SuperMarioMan (Talk) 22:01, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

- '''Keep'''. While the list is niche, several authors on the list (e.g. Savi Sharma, Ravinder Singh, Preeti Shenoy) are independently notable.

- Request regarding List of Indian Kindle-published writers
- Hi
- I noticed that you participated in the deletion discussion for the article "List of Indian Kindle-published writers." I respect your opinion, but I would like to share that I’m working on improving the article significantly with better reliable sources, removing non-notable names, and making the scope broader and more neutral.
- This list aims to document a notable trend in modern Indian publishing — the rise of self-publishing via Kindle Direct Publishing — with references from national-level media like Times of India, Dainik Bhaskar, etc.
- If you think there’s still a chance for improvement or merging instead of deletion, your advice or support would really help.

- Thanks for the feedback. I understand the notability concerns and am working to improve sourcing. That said, moving directly to an AfD nomination — without first suggesting tags or improvements — seemed somewhat premature, especially given that the subject has a long-standing career that began before the digital documentation era.
- Tallis Barker performed widely in the US and UK, taught at Oxford, and is now known for his work in therapeutic fasting and integrative health. While some of his contributions are outside traditional academic or media channels, they reflect a cross-disciplinary profile that may merit consideration under broader notability criteria.

- Thanks for checking, but it's incorrect, I'm not sure where the "7 years" came from. His thesis was published in 1996, and his first public lecture 19 years ago ---- as I mentioned above, the difficulty is to find online sources for his work from that period.

I am nominating this article for deletion because it does not meet Wikipedia’s general notability guideline. Most content relies on primary or self-published sources, and there is no evidence of significant, independent coverage in reliable sources.
Much of the article’s content is sourced from Mona Parsa’s personal website or press releases. There is no evidence of significant coverage in independent, reliable media sources (news outlets, magazines, scholarly journals) about her work, impact, or career.
While she has written a children’s book, hosted events, and worked as an attorney, there is no indication of sustained, independent coverage showing influential impact in her field. Llajwa (talk) 02:21, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

- The Government of Utah has a 22-member Cabinet, which is as large as any cabinet can get before it becomes too large to function. I'm not sure if we have a consensus about whether cabinet members are automatically notable per WP:NPOL. As a Mormon bishop, he only leads a single congregation, so that's run of the mill.

- I'm not going to vote. A late law client was a former Public Service Commissioner for the State of Utah. This might create a difficult precedent and, potentially, a conflict of interest. His name is being withheld due to confidentiality. Bearian (talk) 20:03, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

Non-notable musician. Fails Wp:GNG and Wp:NMUSIC. No SIGCOV is available, just passing mentions and routine PR articles for the releases. There are two award nominations as well but both of them are non-notable and just nominations. Also, the article's creator was blocked as a sock and UPE. Zuck28 (talk) 20:20, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

- Keep This biography is far better-sourced than most of the other Articles for deletion, and I am opposed to a Western bias of deletion of non-Western topics. - Poof positive (talk) 04:26, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- This is an invalid argument. See Wp:WHATABOUT, WP:TDLI,and Wp:POV. Zuck28 (talk) 06:04, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. Notability is demonstrated under WP:MUSIC. Subject has produced and composed for widely recognized artists and songs (e.g., "Sakhiyaan", "Sorry", "Saara India") released under independent labels. His production work has received broad exposure and coverage, confirming his significance in the Punjabi music scene. Cinelatina (talk) 20:37, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- None of the points you mentioned makes him pass Wp:NMUSIC. Zuck28 (talk) 11:14, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
