We have just deleted & redirected the Four Diamonds Fund at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Four Diamonds Fund. This is the article on its annual fund-raising event. The extraordinary detail makes it clear that the intent is promotional. The references are local, and the event is non notable..
See also the adjacent AfD for the AfD on an even less notable related organization. The contents are very similar. DGG ( talk ) 01:04, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

- Keep an annual event that raises $10 million per year is likely to be notable. This appears to get coverage from media across Pennsylvania and not just in the State College, Pennsylvania area; [1] [2]. power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:34, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

- Delete or redirect charity fundraisers are pretty much routine on any large college campus. Like 1 per weekend per campus. Media coverage is basically routine and not independent. This one is big - if there is any independent source for saying it's the biggest, I missed it. All the refs look mildly promotional and non-independent. Smallbones(smalltalk) 21:00, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as promotional; as DGG writes this kind of detail can't be anything else; no objection to a non-spam recreation. Sandstein 13:02, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as promotional and lacking any good sources to establish WP:N. All the sources in the article are first-party or local to the school. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:28, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

The result was delete. The "keep" arguments here are simply not policy-based. Consensus is that the subject is not notable, and can and should be covered within the numerous other existing articles.

Not an 'Italian denomination'. It is a Christian denomination headquartered in the United States with a presence in Italy. JWs in Italy are not a significant proportion of the Italian population (0.4%) or of JWs worldwide (3%). Jeffro77 (talk) 02:56, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
Statistics for JWs' presence in Italy are at Jehovah's Witnesses by country. If there is other pertinent information related to government recognition/interaction, it can be added to Religion in Italy and/or Jehovah's Witnesses and governments where relevant.--Jeffro77 (talk) 03:24, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - I agree that there are no country-specific "Jehovah's Witnesses denominations", the JWs are a Christian denomination, however. This is also supported by the fact that the listed official site is the same as the official site of the Watch Tower. I've not checked the Italian Wikipedia, but it's not impossible that "denomination" was a mistranslation for "branch" or equivalent. When there are JW splinter groups, those don't share the same site and are also termed as such. There is nothing particularly notable about the JWs in Italy for a separate article (and there is no relevant material in Religion in Italy that'd be too large and need a split). —PaleoNeonate – 12:19, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

- Comment -- There is almost enough here to keep. It is clearly not a separate denomination, but the emanation of a foreign denomination in a particular country might be enough to justify an article. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:43, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. From a strictly religious/denominational point of view, it is not a separate denomination. But, being the emanation of a foreign denomination in a particular country makes it worth of an article, as User:Peterkingiron argued. More importantly, from a legal point of view, the "Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses in Italy" is a religious body in Italy and, as such, signed an agreement with the Italian government (not yet law). Italy's Jehovah's Witnesses are not many in absolute terms, but, as far as I understand, Italy is the country with the largest proportion of Jehovah's Witnesses. --Checco (talk) 13:02, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
- This is a single sentence that could easily be merged in Jehovah's Witnesses and governments (and if they have a particular proportion, another that could be in Jehovah's Witnesses by country), hardly enough coverage to write a separate article... —PaleoNeonate – 13:08, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
- Jehovah's Witnesses is certainly a notable topic for encyclopedic coverage and is already given broad coverage, but JWs in Italy (or in country x generally) is not. The claim that JWs make up a notable proportion of Italy's population, even in comparison to JW presence in other countries, is demonstrably false. At about 0.4% of the population based on official JW figures, their presence is less than that in about 20 countries, ignoring countries with a population less than 1 million (and JW figures indicate 58 "lands" with a higher proportion of JWs than Italy). Even if only countries with more than 50 million people are considered, Mexico (0.67%) still has a higher proportion of JWs than Italy. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a determining factor, and it may be that articles about other minor denominations in a particular country where presence is even more minor are also not required.--Jeffro77 (talk) 11:57, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
- My main argument is that the subject has a legal status per se and is worth of an article, similarly to all the other religious bodies which have signed agreements with the Italian government. I agree with Wikipedia:Other stuff exists, but I also cherish consistency and completeness. For readers' sake, it is better to provide a separate article on this subject, as for the other Italian religious bodies. --Checco (talk) 12:59, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
- An organisation 'having a legal status' in a particular country does not automatically warrant (and certainly doesn't necessitate) an article specifically about that organisation in that country, and this also applies to the unspecified 'other Italian religious bodies'. (Or should we create McDonald's in Italy as well?) I'm fairly certain that the 'agreements with Italy' don't contain a clause 'guaranteeing them a Wikipedia article' (even if the agreement is at some point ratified). Articles such as Religion in Italy, Christianity in Italy, Jehovah's Witnesses and governments etc can capture the minutiae about minor groups.--Jeffro77 (talk) 21:29, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
- The argument that other denominations in Italy also have articles is also not a particularly good rationale since you are the creator of this article and you are also the creator of the other articles (e.g. Apostolic Church in Italy, Italian Buddhist Union, Italian Union of Seventh-day Adventist Christian Churches, Evangelical Christian Church of the Brethren, Methodist Evangelical Church in Italy).--Jeffro77 (talk) 00:02, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Atlantic306 (talk) 17:08, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
- Delete or merge. In fact, this should go to all of the articles that Jeffro77 linked above. There is no notability (WP:N). Allowing them in Wikipedia will justify the proliferation of useless articles like this one for each country in the world. Next, cities and neighborhoods. That the Italian government attaches a legal status to all foreign religions in Italy does not fulfill the notability requirements. Rosario (talk) 05:13, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
- @User:Peterkingiron: Are you for keeping the article or deleting it? Can you please explain? Many thanks. --Checco (talk) 06:48, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
- Weak Keep -- I do not like voting to keep articles on such religious groups, but if they really have 3000 congregations and 500k members + supporters, the national emanation is probably notable. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:02, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- (That's an unusual use of the word emanation; JWs don't emanate from Italy, and it's not a good synonym for either branch or presence.) Presence as a proportion of the population would be a better indication of notability, but notability for our purposes here is determined by discussion of the subject in reliable sources, not by the size of a subset of the group. But if we were to assess based on the numbers alone, JWs make up less than 1% of Italy's population (less than 0.5% by official JW figures). JW beliefs and activities in Italy are not remarkably different to their activities generically, which are given broad coverage in Wikipedia already. Recognition of the denomination by the Italian government, if notable, can be adequately covered at Jehovah's Witnesses and governments.--Jeffro77 (talk) 08:28, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
- It is a notable organisation and, as such, signed an agreement with the Italian government. I think this is article is worth for consistency with similar articles about religious groups and denominations in Italy. Putting Italy aside, I would favour an article on JWs by country. Just take a look to Category:Catholic Church by country, Category:Protestantism by country, Category:Islam by country, Category:Hinduism by country, etc. --Checco (talk) 14:38, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

- Notability of the denomination has not been contested, and it is already given broad coverage on Wikipedia, and 'signing an agreement with the Italian government' is not a criterion for an article. Jehovah's Witnesses in Italy are not a significant proportion of either the population of Italy or Jehovah's Witnesses worldwide. Catholicism and Protestantism are major Christian denominations (and strictly speaking, Jehovah's Witnesses is a form of Protestantism via the Bible Student movement via Adventism via Millerism) and Islam and Hinduism are entire religions; the comparison would therefore constitute undue weight to JWs.--Jeffro77 (talk) 06:35, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
- Merge to Jehovah's Witnesses and governments. There's really nothing in this article other than the fact that it exists and a few numerical statistics. That's not enough to base an article on. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:09, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
- Delete since the subject does not possess verifiable, independent notability. The most we get from sources is that the subject (a) exists, and (b) is officially recognized as a religious organization. Far from enough. Then, Merge (i.e. drop a mention or two) into the article "Jehovah's Witnesses and governments". -The Gnome (talk) 12:36, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

Comment: regarding the french wikipedia AfD:
- It's from 2008, which is rather old.
- It was not done for this reason, but because the proponent said: "not an exceptional private school", which is a rather thin argument.

WP:TOOSOON biography of a director that does not meet WP:GNG. Sources provided in this article include multiple film databases, an interview, and coverage of a TV show Aviram directed and a play he wrote. No coverage of the director in reliable sources beyond mere mentions in connection to the show The Good Cop (Israel). Google searches for Israeli publications and going through the Hebrew language wikipedia page didn't turn up anything more significant (although it did include more coverage of The Good Cop in Ha'aretz). There is no mention of awards or other recognitions won, and thus does not meet any of the subject-specific guideline criteria at WP:DIRECTOR.
I was going to Draftify per WP:NPP guidelines for articles with borderline notability, but the draftification was blocked by another article already existing at that target, which appears to have been improperly marked for speedy deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 22:14, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

This guy certainly has got loads of money and that's undoubted given that he has got some trivial mentions as a (5 crore INR) bidder of a suite worn by Narendra Modi.
Has got some trivial mentions in his role as to the Patidar agitation by Hardik Patel.
Some coverage in unreliable sites like <www.gujaratheadline.com>, <patelsamaj.co.in>, <National Herald> are located.
Overall, there is a complete dearth of any significant coverage on him that would make him pass WP:ANYBIO or WP:GNG.

Comment. This discussion is tainted by the ANI. I'm not inclined to vote while that is so recent.Szzuk (talk) 08:29, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Szzuk, No ANI has been mentioned in this discussion to this point until you have brought it up, and you have not identified the particular ANI in question. And that ANI, if it is the one I am thinking of, was in my option raised due the the disruption fallout from PRODs and AfDs. Now in my opinion there is no plausible outcome from this discussion up to this point apart from a merge to 'Free Studio', and to some degree I have implicitly given a commitment to attempt a good faith merge (unless someone else volunteers and does it right) should merge be the final outcome. From my point of view the sooner that is done, dusted and cleared the less disruption it is to me and likely Wikipedia in general. At the risk of tainting HighKing (if I recall rightly, and I may not, I think we have on occasion voted differently at AfDs and maybe have connected on some Ireland related articles), I in good faith believe him to be independent and not tainted by the ANI or other associated fracious AfD discussions in this set, and suggest closer notes this. From my point of view I would prefer a WP:BOLD closer decision on this rather than a relist due to upcoming effort required in the merge. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 10:01, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Does not appear to meet WP:GNG, WP:ORGCRITE, WP:NNEWSPAPER, claims to high readership are not verifiable (and are not criteria for notability; if a publication is widely read, there will be independent coverage of it) and neither Portfolio.hu nor the lone independent source appear to have ever been mentioned on the reliable sources noticeboard. Corresponding article on the Hungarian wiki does not appear to have any reliable sources cited either.
Based on their talk page, the article's creator tried to create a similar page earlier at Portfolio (media company), got denied at AfC due to not demonstrating notability, and then abandoned the draft. signed, Rosguill talk 07:11, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

This is a response to the comment above: the claims made on high readership are verifiable, they are explicitly mentioned in Hungarian articles of independent, major newsoutlets writing about the latest Gemius audit reports on which online news site made it into the top segment in Hungary. Thus the statement on this is wrong. English sources are not available on this, but that is also the case for many foreign newspapers, and it is not a criteria for verifiability, as the foreign language sources can easily be translated. This news site is listed among the oldest and biggest economic journals in Hungary, which is regularly cited in Hungarian media. This statement can also be verified, though it is not currently cited. I believe that this fact has to translate into adequate notability with respect to Hungarian news sites. Reaching such readership as cited in a small country of 10 million puts it in comparison to leading news sites in advanved countries, such as the US. A less relevant note, but it seems to me the notability of most other Hungarian news sites currently covered in this wiki's corresponding section could be attacked in a similar fashion, which I do not see as justified. signed, bence.andras talk 09:40, 14 September 2018 CEST
- Please add citations that are not from portfolio.hu itself, but from independent sources. The Hungarian Wikipedia is more extensive, but still would not be acceptable here due to lack of third-party sources. Jack N. Stock (talk) 12:23, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
- Hello, I have added two additional, independent third-party sources, which both explicitly mention Portfolio.hu's readership statistics, and confirm the ~1 mln/month number. One of them explicitly states that Portfolio.hu has been the most read financial newspaper in Hungary up to last year, when it was overtaken by a competitor, and came in second place. The article is thus correctly worded that it is "one of the most read" financial newspapers in Hungary, but not the most read. This fact justifies, that it is a notable newspaper in Hungary. Now, three independent sources are put in place to verify this information. The citation for portfoliocsoport.hu actually is not a self-reference, but it includes references to some DKT Gemius auditor data, that is why I believe that it is acceptable to provide that as a source as well. DKT Gemius is a paid audit service in Hungary, however, I am not sure if it is freely available.signed, bence.andras talk —Preceding undated comment added 13:21, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for providing additional citations, they do appear to back up the claims made by the article. The only remaining concern is that while these websites appear to justify these claims, they still don't discuss the subject in-depth, as nominally required by WP:GNG. WP:NNEWSPAPER, which is a relevant subject-specific essay, says that a periodical can be considered notable
if it has made a significant impact in its field
. Interpreted charitably, portfolio.hu's high readership would clear this hurdle, but it seems odd that a subject specific guideline for newspapers doesn't explicitly say that high readership demonstrates notability (although this could perhaps be explained away due to it being an essay, and not a guideline or policy). I'm tempted to say that notability has been demonstrated, but I would like other editors to chime in as well before withdrawing my nomination. signed, Rosguill talk 17:51, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello - I hope I'm responding to this in the right place. If I'm not, please let me know the correct place to move this to.
I believe that Kaido does have significant notability. There are three reasons I think this.
1. The guidelines state that the subject should have received "coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". I believe that there are multiple examples of this coverage including:
- http://www.midlandsbusinessnews.co.uk/kaido-wins-eit-health-award/ (An article by a local newspaper)
- http://birmingham.livingmag.co.uk/kaido/ (A full company profile by a UK-wide magazine)
- http://www.bqlive.co.uk/innovation/2016/05/12/news/kaido-secures-50-000-investment-to-launch-new-software-2408/ (An article on the company raising finance from a well known local news publication).
While I appreciate that this is on the lower-end of the scale of notability compared to many articles, I believe it does meet the threshold.
2. The coverage ranges in time over 3 years which fits with the guidance in WP:GNG that "notable topics have attracted attention over a sufficiently significant period of time"
3. The company is growing strongly and has now over 150 companies, city councils and NHS Trusts using its software. While there are not yet citeable sources for this information, I believe that the page will grow in its references and its usefulness to the public over the coming months.

Of the three references mentioned by Ihid, the first is a non-notable award announcement excluded by WP:CORPDEPTH, the second is an anonymous writeup from a magazine with no list of editors, and the third is a capital transaction announcement excluded by WP:CORPDEPTH.

WP:BLP of a musician, whose claims of notability are resting almost entirely on primary and unreliable sources rather than reliable source coverage in media. Of the 18 footnotes here, 15 are blogs or social media posts or directly affiliated websites -- and of the just three references that are actually to reliable media, two are brief unsubstantive blurbs. The one citation to the New York Daily News is much stronger than anything else, so that's certainly a start toward making him notable enough for inclusion -- but it doesn't finish the job of getting him over WP:GNG all by itself if it's the only valid starter source on offer. As always, it's not the claim to passing NMUSIC that gets a musician over NMUSIC, it's the quality of the referencing that can be provided to support the truth of the claim -- and the referencing here simply isn't cutting it at all.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This stub has been totally unsourced since its inception in 2011. I performed a WP:BEFORE search looking for books written in the 20th century, as any significant 1960s project should be covered in that scope of publications.[17] I found nothing about this project, only a few mentions of a generic "space launcher system" that could be developed in Europe or Russia in the future. Consequently, given the high probability of confusion with the current Space Launch System, this article should be removed. Apparently there is some real history of discussions about the Titan I potential upgrades, but there is no indication that an actual project plan called "Space Launcher System" ever existed, and if it did it would not meet WP:GNG until ample coverage in WP:RS can be exhibited. — JFG talk 12:58, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- Comment. We can confirm its existence – it gets a passing mention in Historical Guide to NASA and the Space Program, but only to say that it is a USAF project from the 1960s and nothing to do with the NASA program. SpinningSpark 09:25, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

- Keep. The creator of the article is too pissed with you all to come here himself, but tells me that the source was Heppenheimer. He cannot remember the name of the book, but it may have been The Space Shuttle Decision: Nasa's Search for a Reusable Space Vehicle. On the basis of that, I think we should AGF that this actually is reliably sourced, even if the source is currently uncertain. I have put in a request for verification of this source at WP:LIB. SpinningSpark 13:37, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
- Update: The Space Shuttle Decision is available at the Internet Archive. It does not contain the search term, but does describe a USAF launcher with boosters which may be the same thing. Heppenheimer's Countdown : A History of Space Flight, which I have on loan, also does not contain the term. SpinningSpark 15:16, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Spinningspark: Many thanks for the background information. I don't think Wikipedia should keep an article based on a made-up term, especially as it can easily be confused with the Space Launch System. Certainly this project could be mentioned in articles about Titan I, Titan III, USAF, or the Space Shuttle. There's not enough material to salvage for a dedicated article. — JFG talk 10:03, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
- @JFG: It's not a made-up term. The NASA source I linked in my first comment uses this exact name (capitalised as a proper noun and identified as a USAF 1960s project). SpinningSpark 10:11, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
- Sorry, I was only referring to the Heppenheimer books, which apparently discuss the USAF project without naming it that. The "Historical Guide" source only mentions "Space Launcher System" in a short note in its "Space Launch System" entry, to warn readers against confusion. We can't hang our article title on this only. Irrespective of the name, we are far from demonstrating WP:GNG yet. I have downloaded the 1999 book from Internet Archive and looked for passages discussing boosters: they mostly debate the pros and cons of reusability and refer to possible evolutions of Titan III. What is the exact passage you referred to when saying the book describes "a USAF launcher with boosters which may be the same thing"? I'd like to see which concept we are talking about. Note on page 353 the authors state:
This diversity of boosters meant that there now was no clear reason to choose any of them. The wide range of alternatives recalled the era of the late 1960s, when a hundred flowers had bloomed and when neither NASA nor the Air Force had yet developed a convincing idea of how a shuttle should look.
If this USAF concept was indeed one of those "hundred flowers", why should it be elevated above others? Engineers from various contractors discussed plenty of variants, but it does not look like this one got any substantial-enough traction to become encyclopedic. — JFG talk 10:51, 6 October 2018 (UTC)- Now you've challenged me, I'm not quite sure what I was looking at when I said that. It was probably the drawing on page 87. But on a closer look, that is the Titan IIIM for which we already have an article. EDIT: There is also a discussion of USAF design research on the preceding pages, but it is far from clear whether any of it has to do the subject here. I'm ok with a merge and redirect or dab page to a suitable article. SpinningSpark 11:38, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

It was from one of Heppenheimer's books, perhaps The Space Shuttle Decision. But it was over 7 years ago, I really can't say.
Looking at those books, we have not seen the term "Space Launcher System", but we have seen discussion of various engineering options by the USAF, NASA and industry contractors. Do you have first-hand knowledge besides what you remember reading in such books? The contents of the article as it stands could be folded into Titan I, Titan IIIC, Titan IIIM, Space Shuttle and X-20 Dyna Soar. However the assertions made must be sourced, and the article title must go if we can't find well-sourced corroboration. Any help appreciated. — JFG talk 13:02, 7 October 2018 (UTC)

- Sorry, I was only referring to the Heppenheimer books, which apparently discuss the USAF project without naming it that. The "Historical Guide" source only mentions "Space Launcher System" in a short note in its "Space Launch System" entry, to warn readers against confusion. We can't hang our article title on this only. Irrespective of the name, we are far from demonstrating WP:GNG yet. I have downloaded the 1999 book from Internet Archive and looked for passages discussing boosters: they mostly debate the pros and cons of reusability and refer to possible evolutions of Titan III. What is the exact passage you referred to when saying the book describes "a USAF launcher with boosters which may be the same thing"? I'd like to see which concept we are talking about. Note on page 353 the authors state:
- @JFG: It's not a made-up term. The NASA source I linked in my first comment uses this exact name (capitalised as a proper noun and identified as a USAF 1960s project). SpinningSpark 10:11, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Spinningspark: Many thanks for the background information. I don't think Wikipedia should keep an article based on a made-up term, especially as it can easily be confused with the Space Launch System. Certainly this project could be mentioned in articles about Titan I, Titan III, USAF, or the Space Shuttle. There's not enough material to salvage for a dedicated article. — JFG talk 10:03, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
Relisting comment: Relisting so others can say something, and the current two participants can continue to "debate".

- Delete. Never mind the rocket science minutiae above, an article with zero sources in the actual article even after three weeks of AfD will realistically never get any and therefore needs to go per WP:V. Sandstein 18:52, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
- Comment I think it is Space Launching System. While I have found a couple of usage as Launcher, I think Launching is the correct word. Of course the overused same TLA of SLS for similar systems makes it difficult to find the right sources. The article Aerojet M-1 mentions Launcher which is probably this article, but no inline sources so it is hard to know which source to use. This article should be Moved/Renamed if sources agree.

A7 declined. Was PROD'd and de-PROD'd in 2009 so must be taken to AfD.
I can't find any sources mentioning this person at all, anywhere. The source presently in the article is dead (or at least it is for me), and although the main website Nation News loads, the archive area [18] does not (this could be a browser issue).
I searched Google under Karl and Carl Ducks, and tried appending +Barbados, +comedy, and +comedian. No results, not even trivial mentions, when searching the standard Google, GBooks, GNews, GScholar. The Barbados Advocate and Barbados Today newspapers returned no results, although neither website is clear about how far their archives go back online. Caribbean News Now only goes back to 2010. I've done my best to look for other online Barbadian newspaper archives but haven't found an archive that covers the relevant time period.
I also checked Highbeam and Newspapers.com just in case, although they are US-oriented, and found no relevant hits (again, not even trivial mentions).
I'm stumped as to where else I could search. In the absence of sources, I don't think we can keep this article. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 16:31, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
