Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Georgia (U.S. state)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Georgia (U.S. state). 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:
  1. 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.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Georgia (U.S. state)|~~~~}} 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 Georgia (U.S. state). 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.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to US.

Economist at a bank. No WP:SIGCOV fails WP:GNG; WP:ANYBIO nothing thrown up by WP:BEFORE, no evidence of significant or enduring impact. An economist economisting. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 06:22, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

if there are no further sources like scientific publications I would suggest delete Gawrawiki (talk) 11:33, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago is not just an average bank. Appointments at several significant academic institutions. She not a research economist, so many publications are policy papers rather than theory.
The references section could use some fleshing out. Diekhans (talk) 16:23, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Kristen Broady has had many significant publications (https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=lymxGUAAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao) including at the Brookings Institute, Hamilton Project, and The Review of Black Political Economy (see https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1007/s12114-017-9243-9) Longmermaidhair (talk) 16:41, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm not sure a significant publication record, as measured by citations, satisfies WP:NACADEMIC though. She might meet "The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity.", but that would need to be supported by something beyond just citation count. I think she's more likely to be notable under WP:GNG since there is some coverage of her outside of the academic literature. GenomeFan92 (talk) 17:03, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, I checked again, and being the "Barron Hilton Endowed Professor of Financial Economics at Dillard University" [2] might qualify her under "The person has held a distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, a named chair appointment that indicates a comparable level of achievement, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon." How do we know if that particular named chair indicates a comparable level of achievement to being a distinguished professor at a major institution? Dillard University has history back to 1869. It's fairly small (so maybe it isn't itself "major"), but the school does say in [3] that its various Barron Hilton endowed positions are "one of the highest honors a faculty member can achieve". GenomeFan92 (talk) 18:31, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • There's significant coverage of her published by the St. Louis Fed, who I think is independent and sufficiently reliable, in [4] where they decided she was interesting enough to interview about her work for half an hour. And similarly, the "Sustaining Capitalism" podcast has published a similar show about her and her work at [5], and even though the name suggests an obvious agenda in any debate over economic systems, I'd expect them to be reliable on the subject of this person, and I see no particular connection between them and her. Both of these are cited in the article. So Alexandermcnabb I think that meets the 2 independent, reliable sources with WP:SIGCOV of the subject bar that's needed for WP:GNG, right? Or is there a problem with one or both of those sources in your view? GenomeFan92 (talk) 16:57, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks GenomeFan92, that's what I was thinking. The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis is a reputable source I would hope, and is not her employer, and they considered her notable enough to feature her work. Likewise the Conference Board is a real organization and not obviously connected to her as you said. And while the Fortune magazine article [6] gave a fairly brief summary of her work, they did consider her notable enough to include in their list.

Fails WP:NENTERTAINER, has so far been a participant in a single reality TV franchise, no WP:SIGCOV outside of that. WP:PSEUDO also applies. In the same way that we do not have articles for every participant on other reality shows (Big Brother for example), appearing on this show does not automatically assume notability. --woodensuperman 12:42, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as per WP:Entertainer, for the same reasons Another Believer stated. Cornmazes (talk) 14:32, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing looks good in that list. Seeing a bunch of trivial WP:FANCRUFT/WP:TABLOID type reporting. Trivial current event coverage of this type is not significant, and it is WP:PRIMARY because it's qualitative eyewitness/interview reporting. We need sources with analysis and context across time for the sources to become WP:SECONDARY in order to demonstrate significance.4meter4 (talk) 16:23, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
We're not going to agree here, which is fine, but are you open to changing your vote from delete to redirect? There's no need to delete the page and its history altogether because at minimum the redirect serves a purpose to readers. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:34, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Another Believer: Sure a redirect to The Boulet Brothers' Dragula as an WP:ATD is fine. On a side note, if Abhora's work were significant on this show(s) you would expect articles with cross-episode and cross-season analysis (how they grew as an artist; themes in their work etc.) So much gets written on drag these days that type of coverage should exist if a particular contestant is significant. That's the type of coverage that would indicate an WP:NENTERTAINER pass. Churnalism, which is what we have here, isn't evidence of notability. Best.4meter4 (talk) 16:42, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I'm sure there's more to add, I'll keep fleshing out the article. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:46, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Let me know if you want me to take a second look. Best.4meter4 (talk) 16:51, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, but instead, I would ask you to please consider changing your other delete votes for similar bios to redirect for the same reason and for consistency. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:56, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – per @4meter4. There is no significant coverage from any reliable source. The subject does not satisfy either criteria of WP:NENTERTAINER. Jcgaylor (talk) 20:30, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

American politician, unelected to office. Standing in March 2026, this is WP:TOOSOON and the subject does not otherwise pass WP:GNG. Article is promotional, which can be fixed, but absent notability deletion is the solution. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 10:10, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article does not pass WP:GNG. RealStanger43286 (Let's talk!) 14:42, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Little independent significant coverage in sources beyond those with other episodes of the season. Go D. Usopp (talk) 11:27, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
