I felt this was a candidate for CSD:A7 but am not a tech person so decided to go AfD under non-notable company and non-notable technology (most references are from 10 years ago). Britishfinance (talk) 19:21, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Author's note: Notability began with a full article published a decade ago about the company's technology and benefit to India. An article about Haloid would not be something to delete, even if today people ask "please Xerox it" rather than please Haloid it. I added a "Benefits to poor" section to this Wiki stub, which now includes book citations. Pi314m (talk) 01:59, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Author observation: Wiki asks for contribtions, decries information being lost, and then . . . history gets deleted? A report posted to the U.S. Department of Justice, available here, says that nine companies in this space developed "contactless fingerprint technologies that are worth noting." The first two are now facing deletion from Wiki's servers. ClassifEye is listed first of the nine. The second is also HatNoted. The report notes both companies have closed. Is this like deleting history? I updated the ClassifEye article to point to the report. Pi314m (talk) 08:16, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, DannyS712 (talk) 23:43, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete: does not meet WP:NCORP. Sourcing offered above is in passing and / ot WP:SPIP, insufficient for establishing notability. --K.e.coffman (talk) 19:27, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- (Author asks) Merge? i.e. Start an article named Contactless fingerprinting and use both the above article and runner up Pay By Touch, the top two in the Justice Department report, as examples/sections? Pi314m (talk) 10:22, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Pi314m That sounds like a good idea as the technology is likely notable (presuming that there is no existing WP article on this), and it could include discussion around the companies in the space. I find myself recommending on AfD often that older articles, where the sources have dried up for a decade, it is better to consolidate articles around a main theme. It is most likely as time goes on that such consolidated articles will survive, whereas individual weak cases will get deleted and and useful history/references lost. Britishfinance (talk) 17:50, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ad Orientem (talk) 03:28, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- I oppose a merge, as articles on technologies are not used to house information on the companies, as it's undue promotional details. I removed the corporate overviews for the two companies: diff. It's excessive and misplaced. Generally, corporate articles are merged if there's a parent company, not a technology article. --K.e.coffman (talk) 17:29, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
- Author comment. Got it. Without naming the companies (ClassifEye _and_ Pay By Touch), I described application of their technology: USA, England, India, Peru, Israel (section name: Applications). Pi314m (talk) 19:50, 17 February 2019 (UTC)

Besides the fact that all but 1 or 2 of these references are to her modeling agencies aka primary sources, even though she won the Elite Model Look contest years ago, she doesn’t meet NMODEL. Don’t let the advertisement tone of this article fool you. She’s only done about 11 jobs in 6 years and none of them notable. There are not sources out there to substantiate notability.

Almost entirely unsourced, except the subject's personal website, a national library catalogue, two YouTube links to a short video by the subject and a reading by the subject. A Google search only gives one possible reliable secondary source on him by a local German newspaper: [1], so the article fails WP:GNG and WP:BASIC. Beyond the fluff, the author does not qualify for WP:AUTHOR and fails WP:ANYBIO having won two minor prizes and being long-listed for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize once. It doesn't help that all of the contributions to the article were from three SPAs (Jabel2150, Corvuslibri, 85.176.22.138). MarkH21 (talk) 22:02, 1 February 2019 (UTC),

- Delete: I disagree about the exceptions to sourcing. This BLP article has one source about one book. Sourcing through the "External links" is inappropriate, not reliable, and IMDb is a user-generated site. If someone wants to keep all the apparent original research then "prove it" with BLP acceptable sources. The "Five pillars includes "All articles must strive for verifiable accuracy, citing reliable, authoritative sources, especially when the topic is controversial or is on living persons." Otr500 (talk) 22:16, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
- Draftify. I am finding other sources on German websites but I can't tell how material they are: NDR.de, Stern.de. I can't find anything that would be a solid RS on English sources. He seems to have more than one published work (and even his "authority control" is showing up links) which can imply notability. Untimately we should not have a BLP on WP with effectively no references (the referernce is a link to one of his books); therefore, at minimum, we should draftify.

- Delete as per WP:TNT as this reads like a National Enquirer piece brimfull with sensationalism, and gossipy tidbits and hardly anything about the subject's actual career. It is also entirely negative and borderline csd attack page, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 20:01, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Notability is not inherited... doesn’t matter who was born first. Trillfendi (talk) 17:22, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:CREATIVE and WP:INHERIT notability. The page has nothing due with her as a screenwriter. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 08:23, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect to Paula Fox as that's where she is name-checked in reliable sources. (example). Everybody quoting WP:INHERITED / WP:INVALIDBIO, go and read the guidelines you are quoting carefully and you will find that nowhere does it say you must delete an article. Specifically, "That person A has a relationship with well-known person B, such as being a spouse or child, is not a reason for a standalone article on A (unless significant coverage can be found on A); relationships do not confer notability. However, person A may be included in the related article on B.". See Jason Allen Alexander. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:42, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect to Paula Fox. Such an interesting story and connections. Seems like a shame to loose this text (some of the most interesting I have read in a BLP for some time). At least a Redirect would preserve what is there and maybe it could be fixed/properly merged in the future. Britishfinance (talk) 19:43, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete per above. He has done nothing notable, and notability is not inherited from one's parents and family friends, royalty excepting of course. Bearian (talk) 19:02, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Per nom; any case here is contrived at best. Doesn't even make an appearence in the English Times, Guardian or Telegraph Tier 1 newspapers; which would be very odd for a notable British writer, with such notable connections, and who is still alive.

He is a rather notable individual in Venezuela as well as in a few circles in the recording industry. I just need to find a few more resources that prove his notability. If given a few more days I can find them.Lightning ride (talk) 16:27, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: Mr. Grau recorded nine albums between 1974 and 1983... a series of "reworked" albums a couple of years ago returned him to the public consciousness after being forgotten for 30 years. The problem is that he is completely unknown outside of his native Venezuela, and almost all reliable sources are going to be in Venezuelan print media from decades ago, and nowhere else. I can't help here, but good luck to Lightning ride in trying to find RS. Richard3120 (talk) 16:59, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

- @Lucifero4: Why? 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 21:20, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- The article seem to be used. User:Lucifero4
- Thanks. I'm not sure what "used" means, although a high-traffic article, or articles with numerous incoming links may indicate a topic for which large numbers of people seek encyclopedic information. In this case there are several incoming links, but only as a result that Oakman is included on the Template:CofCApostles template. Regarding pageviews, before this AfD the page was averaging about 30 a month, or one a day, just barely more than what a page will receive from "Random article" traffic. I'm not giving a !vote here because I'm not sure he isn't notable in the same way that U.S. State legislators are notable (may only have local coverage, but actions demonstrably affect large numbers of people,) but although I appreciate the position I can't agree with it. However, I appreciate the explanation. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 14:09, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete insufficient sources to show notabable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:26, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment For RLDS a good place to look for sources is the John Whitmer Historical Association Journal, and indeed, Oakman's role in the European church leading into WWII is discussed in "National Socialists and Social Idealists: The RLDS Church in Nazi Germany, 1933-1945", R. Ben Madison, The John Whitmer Historical Association Journal Vol. 16 (1996), pp. 15-30, and less extensively (though as "a towering figure in RLDS history") in "Forgotten Outpost: The Reorganized Latter Day Saints of Poland" by the same author in the same journal, Vol. 13 (1993), pp. 31-50. He's mentioned briefly in several other articles on RLDS history, though mostly in one paragraph or a few sentences. There's also the entire biography of Oakman listed in the sources, though of course one might dismiss that as not independent. Bakazaka (talk) 01:37, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

I suspect this fails WP:NPOL, although I'm not very familiar with US politics below national level. If this does end up being deleted then the contents of Category:Dayton City Council members might need to be trawled. Sitush (talk) 00:35, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment Oh, Ab Orick, lol. I grew up in Dayton, and Abner Orick was a big deal at one time in that town, IIRC got a ton of local coverage because he considered himself a government watchdog and Dayton's political scene was full of cronyism. He may actually be notable. I'll see if I can find some sources. valereee (talk) 12:37, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
KeepI by no means exhausted the coverage; if anyone disagrees that notability has been proved, I can do more, but IMO I think he probably does qualify. The coverage is almost all local with some coverage in the rest of the state, but that's to be expected. He was a character, but not to the point he attracted national coverage. valereee (talk) 13:29, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the sourcing but I'm still not getting it. I don't think local coverage counts for much when it comes to GNG and I still don't see how he meets NPOL. If we let this through, there will be scope for tens of thousands of people in India whom we at present routinely reject. - Sitush (talk) 13:58, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- You don't think the sources meet "A politician who has received "significant press coverage" has been written about, in depth, independently in multiple news feature articles, by journalists." ? I guess I'd say if there are tens of thousands of people in India who are being written about multiple times in-depth over many years in the primary dailies of their midsize cities, they might be notable. valereee (talk) 14:21, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- I'm just saying how the guidelines have been interpreted in the past. It is also why quite a few articles by Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) have been deleted. I really don't give a crap about US politics but I do dislike systemic bias and the US gets away with murder on that score. I'm not trying to pull an OTHERSTUFFEXISTS line here, btw: local politicians get local coverage, it's not usually thought of as being a big deal. - Sitush (talk) 14:25, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Hey, you could mention probably a dozen other Dayton city commissioners and I'd say you're right, they aren't notable. I'd be able to do a search and find the only coverage they got were bare mentions of their wins or how they voted or single quotes in an article about an issue. I'm not arguing that being city commissioner (or the normal coverage that gets you) makes you notable. I'm arguing that in this case, a city commissioner of a midsize city might actually be notable because he got an abnormal amount of coverage. valereee (talk) 14:38, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I'm in the UK and can't see many US news sources, even though I see the results listings. Thus, I can't comment on their content, merely on what tends to happen: the "local heroes" type of situation doesn't usually wash at AfD. (Or "local baddy", as it sounds like it may be in this case.) - Sitush (talk) 14:40, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- I clipped all those articles -- you can't see the clippings? Maybe I did it wrong -- I only recently figured out it was even possible ETA: I don't think he was necessarily a local hero, although certainly the people in his blue-collar white east dayton neighborhoods thought so. And definitely not a baddy, he was well-intentioned. He was just a colorful character lol valereee (talk) 14:43, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry, I saw the links were for newspapers.com and I know I can't see them even though I can get results listings. However, I've just tried the first one and it is visible to me - I've not seen the clipping thing before but perhaps that does make a difference. Anyway, let's just see what other people think. Hero/celebrity/baddy/whatever - he's of local interest and local interest doesn't usually make for encyclopaedic interest in a worldwide context. Perhaps it should, and it would suit me just fine, but I'm just telling you how I've seen it play out in the past. - Sitush (talk) 14:58, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- No worries, since you're not convinced I'll keep working! Like I said, I'd by no means exhausted the sources :) valereee (talk) 15:13, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. I haven't gone through all of the sources to establish whether they're enough to make him special or not — and to be honest, I'm not actually going to, so I'm not going to "vote" either way. (Also, Valereee is making a sincere attempt to improve it, so I don't want to prejudge the results of the effort.) But I just wanted to point out the following: when it comes to city councillors, we do indeed normally require that either (a) they serve in an internationally prominent global city on the order of New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, Toronto or London, or (b) they can be referenced to a volume and depth and range of coverage that makes them a special case over and above most other city councillors. Simply showing that some local coverage exists is not normally enough, because local coverage of city councillors always exists — so we do indeed normally require some evidence of nationalizing coverage before we deem most city councillors to be notable enough, because if all you had to do to get a city councillor over the bar was show a handful of local coverage, then every city councillor could always show that and thus every city councillor would always be notable.
What I did want to say, though, is that in light of the above discussion I've reviewed the contents of the Dayton city councillors category — some of them do actually get over NPOL on other grounds (e.g. going on to serve in the state legislature), but there are indeed a few who have no credible evidence of notability at all, so I'm already taking on the task of listing those articles for AFD.

- Delete with regret. The sources are all local to the Dayton area with the exception of two. Akron is far removed from Dayton, and while not incredibly in-depth, it might help with GNG. The other is Cincinnati, again not tied to Dayton, but that is the briefest of bare mentions. Therefore it doesn't pass GNG, NPOL, or any other criteria I can think of to keep this well-written article. Dangnabbit. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 21:30, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Article has existed for over a dozen years and in that time never had any stub templates or Alaska-related categories added to it, nor has the talk page seen any additions beyond the WP Biography banner, which is customarily added to BLPs. Accomplishments as a dog musher are underwhelming, to say the least. I found the current link at the Iditarod website. It says that he's been "in the money" (finishing in the top twenty) in his Iditarod career, but it probably wasn't enough to cover his expenses.

- Comment: I would dispute that some of the "Keep" users are sock puppets:
- The following are all users with a considerable history of contribution to the project, and with too many contributions for me to consider it likely that they are merely a sock puppet:
- USER:Computerjoe - now inactive
- USER:ST47 - admin
- USER:Angelbo - now inactive
- USER:Tony Fox - now inactive, admin
- USER:Fairsing - now inactive
- USER:Bluedustmite - now inactive
- There are only two users who are almost certainly sock puppets, USER:Bov and USER:Gazpacho, and also one that I consider possibly a sock puppet, though probably not, USER:Drett - though it does also appear that they hold some... questionable... political views.
- With all that said, taking a quick gander at the sources suggest that the subject is not notable, but I won't vote unless I get the chance to look in more detail. -- NoCOBOL (talk) 13:16, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment The section 'Press coverage' looks like a weird way to attempt to establish notability. If the mentions contain useful information you would imagine they be used in the body of the text. Also, if you look at the CSPAN ref, which is a hosting site and therefore primary, it indicates the information on the page isn't even correct. the organisation has two founders, one of whom isn't on the page.

- Delete leaving aside the sockpuppet overpopulation problem with the 1st AfD, and leaving aside the fact that this is a FRINGE, conspiracy theory outfit to look at the sources. Problem is that the souces I find in searches are either FRINGE (self-published books with titles like The New Pearl Harbor Revisited: 9/11, the Cover-Up, and the Exposé, and Mounting Evidence: Why We Need a New Investigation into 9/11,) or they are mere mentions , tend to be vague, and have different sets of facts. One of the very few recent mentions in a reliable newspaper, the The York Dispatch, How a national conspiracy theory museum wound up in the 'boondocks' is about a new conspiracy theory "museum, the Hidden History Museum that is composed of stacks of cardboard filing coxes in a rented space in a disused strip mall. The files were collected by a man named John Judge, now deceased. Her's the part about the "9/11 Citizens Watch": [ https://www.ydr.com/story/opinion/columnists/mike-argento/2019/01/16/how-national-hidden-history-museum-wound-up-york-county-pa-conspiracy-theory-museum-john-judge/2582211002/ Judge wasn’t a 9/11 truther, though. Tenenoff said, “He thought those people were fanatics." He formed a 9/11 Citizens Watch to counter the 9/11 Commission, asking the questions that weren’t asked. He didn’t believe, as some truthers do, that the twin towers were brought down by a controlled demolition. He thought that was preposterous, Tenenoff said. How would they get the explosives in the buildings? Were the explosives built into the buildings’ steel frames? He didn’t buy that. Nor did he buy the notion that the Pentagon attack was staged and that a plane did not crash into it. He lived close enough that he felt it. No, all of that was distraction, he believed. He did have some questions. Were the suspected terrorists identified as being on the planes really on them? Did George W. Bush know about the attacks and let them happen to give him a pretext to invade Iraq? He was more interested in the aftermath, Tenenoff said, the loss of civil liberties, the constant state of war, the amount of power shifted to the government. “He just wanted to know what really happened,” she said. The truth, it seems, is out there, contained somewhere in the 270 boxes and 8,000 books and hundreds of audio and video tapes housed in a small, nondescript office suite in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania.]. As someone menitoned above, our article cites a different "founder". In sum, there is just not enough reliable sourced, SECONDARY sourcing to keep.E.M.Gregory (talk) 22:32, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Working on Keep. Trying to clean up the article and find better sources. Don't know why John Judge (not John Judge) isn't included. Put an external link for 4 C-SPAN videos until I figure out which is used as a ref. Here is an RTF of their 9/11 Commission Critique which concludes, "We do not anticipate that we will disagree with all the many conclusions and recommendations of the 9/11 Commission’s final report..." Still looking for"The Omission Report". There are other bad links too. Org seems less fringe and more just criticizing the process and secrecy of the investigation. If you did merge, maybe Criticism of the 9/11 Commission might be a better article. StrayBolt (talk) 21:58, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- comment @StrayBolt: As you are working on it can you get rid of the passing mentions please which are clearly there to give the illusion of notability, as noted above (and one may add the BBC ref to that as well).

- Keep. Some coverage here at Scoop.co.nz, Wednesday, 24 March 2004, 10:00am - "UQ Wire: Breakthrough For 9/11 Truth On C-SPAN!" and Scoop.co.nz, Wednesday, 24 March 2004, 10:09 am - "UQ Wire: Breakthrough For 9/11 Truth On C-SPAN!" And these two ladies attended a 9/11 CitizensWatch press conference. And some of the books that reference this aren't self-published either. Karl Twist (talk) 09:00, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- No see this is exactly what is NOT going to help establish notability. This is making me think delete. The CSPAN refs are all primary because it's coverage of their own press conference made by themselves. It doesn't mean it's ok because Scoop posts a link to it which is what your two links are, a link to a conspiracy theory news aggregator page. Also failing to see how a non free Getty image has anything to do with this. If this is the best there is, then it's not notable. Mramoeba (talk) 09:19, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- Reply - I believe there is a good degree of discernment by Scoop with what they choose or choose not to publish, just as much as they do with major NZ newspapers. The Getty image is just an indication of the conference that would have been either televised or printed in a reliable newspaper. That wasn't to prove notability as such. It was more for those who want to find out about it as I don't have the time at this moment. Karl Twist (talk) 12:27, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- Scoop is not a newspaper. This is an uneditorialised press release redirecting to 911truth.org, a conspiracy theory website. Wikipedia informs us "The website publishes a large number of submitted news and press releases due to their permissive policy." All of these links are already on the page anyway as they all lead to CSPAN which is in external links. Mramoeba (talk) 13:50, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Having had some time to look at this, this is a clear delete. The organisation managed a handful of press mentions, none in mainstream sources, and the rest of this is primary, some of it disingenuously made to look secondary through the wording and reference landings (from article edit summary I removed the worst). In summary:
- 1) Primary: Own website, allowable for basic facts/descriptors only
- 2) Primary: Zogby market research was sponsored by Citizens Watch. This article is a summary of findings
- 3) Christian Science Monitor is generally considered reliable source, however this is a short article covering groups who submitted questions to the commission the adverts CW posted and quotes, there is no in depth coverage, in fact the only interpretation of CW by the journalist is "one of the groups observing the proceedings"
- 4) BBC is a mention, the entire article is 9 different reaction comments, no journalitic analysis or interpretation.
- 5) Abook which is not viewable. From the Google snippet I suspect this could very easily be another passing mention of their reaction to the report, as covered elsewhere.
- 6) Washington TIMES, wikipedia disputes reliability, "The Washington Times is considered partisan for US politics, especially with regard to climate change and US race relations." There is no coverage of CW in it anyway, just a quote from Kyle Hence.

- Revisiting, and agreeing with User:Mramoeba, there are menitons, but fails WP:SIGCOV.E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:28, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment, I still stand by my keep vote. Because so much of the media is controlled by the like of Murdoch, searches need to be done in other areas. The Getty images pic that features April Gallup and Rosemary Dillard states they were at a 9/11 Citizens Watch press conference at the National Press Club. Was it on TV or in which papers? Anyway ..... But if it leans too much toward Delete then the history should be preserved and it should be re-directed to 9/11 Truth movement and a small section be created there.

- Author Comment. Thanks for pinging my talk page! If I understand, there are two questions: notability and whether it’s promotional.
- I don’t think the page falls foul of elements 1 - 4 in WP:PROMOTION. It appears neutral and factual. Element 5 states that it’s promotional if not notable — thus your citation of WP:NPRODUCT. Makes sense!
- (WP:NPRODUCT says “if a company is notable, information on its products and services should generally be included in the article on the company itself”, and “a specific product or service may be notable on its own, without the company providing it being notable in its own right.” On Draft:Reincubate, I see kvng suggests “it may be possible to recast this as an article on iPhone Backup Extractor”.)
- With reference to WP:GNG, the page’s citations group into these:
-
- Tech blogs & podcasts: hard to asses independence, reliability.
- Release note chronology: clearly not secondary.
- Review aggregators: not suitable for notability.
- National press and government coverage around the royal award. Meets the WP:ORGCRIT tests for multiple significant, independent, reliable, secondary. (Fits “substantial”, too.)
- WP:PSTS provides examples of coverage that includes “a scholarly article, a book passage, or ongoing media coverage focusing on a product or organization” and “an extensive how-to guide written by people wholly independent of the company or product”. There are examples of both of these for the product in question at Draft:Reincubate. Would it be helpful if I edit the article's talk page proposing an edit to include them?
- It’s been challenging digging out examples of similar products and companies on Wikipedia in order to see how it is done well. ScreenFlow is a much-edited and well-regard page, but has no notable sources at all. I’m not arguing WP:WHATABOUTX, but am curious to find good examples!
- Tgho (talk) 14:51, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. Tgho can you enumerate which of the cited sources are in your 4th category? I'd like to review those. Also I do think that the article has a WP:PROMOTIONAL slant to it but that should be able to be addressed through improvements to the article - deletion is not required to fix this. ~Kvng (talk) 17:03, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

- Author Comment. Following up on Kvng’s request for WP:ORGCRIT enumeration to support a keep... apologies for the delay, I’ve been reading forensics books.
- Regarding notable award coverage, strong citations are the London Gazette entry here [6] and the Southwark News article [7] (which you mentioned in your comment).
- On the “book passage” criteria, there are a number of books with passages on iPhone Backup Extractor in forensics, penetration testing, and as a system utility. A typical example is “Forensics Cookbook” (Mikhaylow, 2017). The following include passages on it, too, and some of these have specific citations in Draft:Reincubate:
-
- Investigating the Cyber Breach (Muniz, Lakhani, 2018)
- iOS Forensic Analysis: for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (Morrissey, Campbell, 2010)
- iOS Forensics Cookbook (Birani, Birani, 2016)
- iPhone and iOS Forensics (Hoog, Strzempka, 2011)
- Learning iOS Forensics (Epifani, Stirparo, 2015)
- Learning iOS Penetration Testing (Yermalkar 2016)
- Mastering Mobile Forensics (Tahiri, 2016)
- Mobile Forensic Investigations (Reiber, 2015)
- O’Reilly’s App Savvy (Yarmosh, 2010)
- Operating System Forensics (Messier, 2016)
- Practical Mobile Forensics (Mahalik, Tamma, Bommisetty, 2014)
- Take Control of Your iPhone (Landau, 2009)
- On the “scholarly article” criteria, there are several dozen papers with passages on the application and its use. Jonathan Zdziarski’s 2013 paper “iOS forensic investigative methods” has a chapter for it on page 110 (no deep-link I'm afraid). Similarly, 2012's “iPad 2 Logical Acquisition: Automated or Manual Examination?” (Ali, AlHosani, AlZarooni, Baggli) gives it a chapter (p. 119+) and makes reference to it throughout.
- I believe these sources satisfy WP:RS and WP:ORGCRIT. I hope this is helpful. Tgho (talk) 18:37, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. The dedication of paid editor tgho is admirable, as dedications go, but not sufficient to overcome the lack of verifiable independent notability. The sources put up in the effort to save the text are tangential to the subject, at best. E.g. the article in the Southwark News is about Aidan Fitzpatrick and not the product; if we want a bio on Aidan Fitzpatrick we already have a source. E.g. the article in the Sydney Morning Herald is a listing of apps that help the iPhone user, among which is this product. Same kind of listing (one among many) one encounters in specialist forensics texts such as the Forensics Cookbook. (Someone offered a London Gazette issue as proof of notability but their link contains no reference to the product; it lists the Queen's Awards and among those who won is Reincubate, with no mention of their product at all.) We are left with simply a gallant effort of a text. -The Gnome (talk) 11:16, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

This article's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). The references are dependent, local and unreliable. As per WP:INTREF Wikipedia referencing guide, the subject's own website is not an acceptable reference. As per WP:ORG, if no independent, third-party, reliable sources can be found on a topic, then Wikipedia should not have an article on it. OliverKianzo (talk) 09:56, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep per most recently added references. Remember, judgments of notability should be based on what sources are out there, not what sources are already in the article.

- Keep: Tamko employs 650 people just in the local area, is unquestionably notable regionally and also known nationally, and is one of the largest employers in Joplin. All companies of this size or larger in this area already have articles. - JGabbard (talk) 02:03, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- Week keep: There is always the old other stuff argument when that is not only generally a bad argument but not supported by any policies or guidelines. The company has been around a long time and even though likely rated outside the top ten (was #11) I can see some notability although a search seems to be more about the class action lawsuit. That is not abnormal as GAF, Owen Corning, Atlas, CertainTeed, IKO, and Globe Building Materials (probably others) along with Tamko, had these suits over roof failures (and fading), deceptive warranties, substandard roofing shingle manufacturing, false advertising, etc..., for fiberglass, organic, and asphalt shingles. My issue is that because a company has good advertising, as shown by mostly primary sources, does not equate to notability regardless of how much we like it. Adding more primary sources to support notability does not make the case. Otr500 (talk) 14:20, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete Just about every excuse has been used by the Keep !voters above - except the only measure that counts which is at least two references that pass WP:NCORP. Not a single reference that is either in the article or that I can locate online meets the criteria for establishing notability. If we want to simply ignore our own guidelines, fine, lets keep any article on a company that is 70 years old, a major employer and has been sued in court. Otherwise, lets follow our own guidelines.

I stopped after randomly picking three, Bajram Ajeti, Bersant Celina, and Mërgim Hereqi. The last one claims Kosovan-Albanian descent in the lead but is unsourced and the other two have no mention of descent so sourcing would be important. Twenty thousand immigrants may or may not be a threshold for notability to a country and the slippery slope could be new lists of any minor immigration to all countries. A main concern with the list of notable people, not backed by sources, that their families might be war related immigrants or actually just migrated or "moved".

- Keep with the argument that the poster's misbehavior is moot, as their singular sentence is so sparse one can hardly argue it is promotional. It was, however, extremely inaccurate. The paper seems to have a very interesting history as the first Marxist periodical published in the Latvian language, dating back to the 1800s. It also looks to be an interesting glimpse into the history of Latvian American immigrants, a group no doubt lacking some coverage on Wikipedia due to systemic bias. If the sourcing seems sparse, a redirect to List of newspapers in Latvia would also be logical from where I'm standing. 24.84.14.158 (talk) 20:17, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

- More on this: checking the two book references, it doesn't seem that there's any substantial mention of Auseklis; rather, it's a passing and non-substantial mention (at the most, searching its name only brings up 1 or 2 results in the entire book).

Enough sources are out there to establish GNG easily. Add to this the fact that he co-curated one of the Whitney Biennales (one of the top ten or twenty art exhibitions in the world) and you could probably make an argument that he meets some part of WP:CREATIVE. The guy is high-level. And let's not forget all the coverage that was generated by the Whitney show, like this article in Time, with a video, this Vogue magazine article, this rather good article in the New York Times, and so on.

- It doesn't have in-depth content that would meet GNG, but if the article is kept, it can be used as a source to verify some basic facts. On page 248: 0.5 km route and first launched in 1994. It also gives some stuff not currently in the article: there were 739 passenger per day in 2010, and if I am reading the table correctly, there would seem to be only one bus. That last contradicts the article which uses the plural, but how many buses do you need for a 500m run? Also gets a mention in this book, but again, not in-depth. SpinningSpark 12:25, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete: Unsourced. Snippets and sources with no in-depth coverage don't advance notability for GNG or NORG.

PROD removed for reason: "I think it has enough references in books to meet WP:GNG." Well, I'd be interested to know just what book references there are to establish GNG. Here there are no references to the Victoria Ground in Leeds and here the mentions are nowhere enough for notability. Bear in mind the location of this ground wasn't even known prior to old OS maps being released, so it's hardly well covered. Beyond that, the ground did not host a first-class match, as the match was cancelled. So it fails WP:CRIN and beyond that it fails WP:GNG. StickyWicket (talk) 10:22, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep Notable park. Variously called "Leeds Royal Park", "Leeds New Gardens", "Tommy Clapham’s Park", "Leeds Horticultural Gardens" ([11] (page 2)). Sources to satisfy WP:GNG include [12] p 62-67, [13] p77-79, [14], [15] and [16] It was clearly a notable location in Leeds, not just used for cricket ([17], [18]). It was converted into public gardens and the roads Royal Park Road, Royal Park Grove, Royal Park Road Avenue and Royal Park Terrace were named after it. Appears to have been the site of the first Balloon-related death in the UK, in 1887 ([19]). Cricket-wise it hosted matches involving William Clarke's All-England Eleven ([20]), and regularly Leeds Cricket Club vs e.g. York and Bradford (e.g. [21]), and was regarded by some as the principal cricket ground in Leeds ([22]). A 1902 work of fiction commented on "the bye-gone glories of Tommy Clapham's park, an institution which was at one time part and parcel of the town of Leeds, and which far outshone in popularity the vaunted glories of Roundhay Park or any other of the present-day amusements provided for the toiling masses of the city" ([23]).--Pontificalibus 12:41, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

I would like to explain my nominating this article for deletion. I spent a great deal of time trying to find citations for the claims made in this article, and while I was successful in some cases, the vast majority of them are unsupported claims of similarity between the series and other works of fiction, or historical events, and not all are of sufficiently notable status.
Many of these claims may well be correct, and certainly seem plausible. Others are so vague and/or tenuous so as to make finding citations - when one is not the source of the edit - virtually impossible. In either case, without reliable sources I don't believe Wikipedia is the place for them. As pointed out on the talk page the article is a scattered mess anyway, and little better than a listicle in some places. There are plenty of B5 fan sites that point out perceived literary and historical parallels that don't have the same burdens for inclusion as Wikipedia.
In summary the portions of this article for which I could find sources are so few that what is left does not warrant a separate article. I have gathered together the elements for which I could find sources, and put them under a new 'Influences' heading in the main Babylon 5 article. I believe that removes the need to keep this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ElectricalTill (talk • contribs)

- Purge and Merge, per nom. Aside from JMS's statements acknowledging the show's homages and inspirations, there are very few WP:RS references available for this. It's a great topic for a paper, but as a textbook example of WP:OR, it doesn't belong on WP. -Jason A. Quest (talk) 14:46, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete per nom and Jason A. Quest. The majority of the article is, as said, largely OR, and the actual cited elements (the statements from JMS himself, mostly) don't really need an article separate from the main Babylon 5 article. I was initially going to suggest merging those actual relevant bits of information to the main article, but I see that has already been done, and a must more succinct and better organized section with this information has already been created there. That being said, there is no reason to do anything here than a Deletion at this point. 169.232.162.112 (talk) 19:57, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment. I've moved and consolidated everything I could cite. I haven't checked printed literature, which may have usable sources, but a good few pages of google searches with various terms for each of the major claims. Most of it seems to be OR, conjecture, or claims so nebulous ("it seems," "a parallelization that can be made," "this is reminiscent of," "are similar to," "is often compared to," etc.) that it's difficult to even begin trying to find sources. Even citations from major sites like the Lurker's Guide are dubious IMO unless they're actually quoting JMS.ElectricalTill (talk) 10:02, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Per nom and taking into account comment above that anything salvagable/mergable has been done (otherwise I would redirect, but wary that some redirects become resurrected). The WP:OR issue is just too great here – both in terms of the topic (how can it ever avoid OR), and even the text, so it is beyond a WP:TNT issue. You could imagine some material being salvaged in a short section on a Babylon 5 article under an "Influences" section (e.g. "Experts regard the following list as important influences on Bablyon 5 ......") that might be sufficiently brief that it is uncontraversial; although, it could still attract OR concerns if the experts are not the accepted experts. Not for a full seperate article. Britishfinance (talk) 20:47, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

I was cleaning this up, but the moment you start cleaning the promotional crap out of an article like this, there's nothing left. There are no reliable sources, there are no real, verified achievements, even the filmography is questionable.

- Keep. Bernie Hiller has undoubtedly some influence as an acting coach. The documentary 'Pink Elephants' is about him and his work. And he was in some festival jurys. In my eyes, that makes him a relevant person. Sure, the article was pure advertising, but now it's better. The sources are o.k. and there is a criticism-section, too. As far as I know, Pink Elephants is only available in german. But at the latest when there are english subtitles in this documentary, people are asking for a Wikipedia article.

- It's perfectly acceptable to give an opinion that this should be deleted, but "per nom" is not a valid opinion as the nominator's statement that this actor only played an untitled character in a film is a bare-faced lie. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:19, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- Except as I commented above, there is still virtually no coverage of this person despite his supposed "starring" in this film of questionable notability.

Praxidicae (talk) 20:25, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, that might be true, but you shouldn't overstate the case for deletion by lying that the subject played an untitled character when it was actually the lead role. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:39, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- I think you're being unduly harsh here and stating this as if my intent was to deceive. At the time when I afd'd this with the sources available to me it showed no main role in a film of note under his name R.S. Karthik. It wasn't until later that the sources stating such were found but my point still stands that he is not currently notable. Praxidicae (talk) 20:45, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- Stop trying to rewrite history. This is how the article looked when you nominated it for deletion. Notability may not have been demonstrated, but it was perfectly clear that the subject played the lead, named, role in Peechankai, which makes your nomination statement a clear lie. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:50, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- Phil Bridger Why make these comments when your point is not material to the outcome. Under any WP:BEFORE check, this subject is a delete. I could edit the article myself and get it close to a WP:A7. Do you really think that this subject, based on the information available on him – none of which is a material quality RS on the subject himself (the critical component for a media-BLP) – makes him notable. There are AfD's in the queue that have not even had a comment, and you spend your time like this?

- You have taken an extreme view that a mistake is definately a lie. If that is the case, then AfD is full of liars as many AfDs have mistakes or inaccuracies in their proposals. I have seen such mistakes in some of your contributions Phil, but I don't call you a "liar". I make comments in many AfDs without voting to note potential mistakes (and such comments have been made to me on my contributions). But I do not assume that they are "lying". What is even worse, you take such an extreme view for an AfD which is not only a Delete, but is most likely a COI/UDP case – E.g. the basis of this article is a lie? Britishfinance (talk) 22:05, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- I did not lie. Lying implies that I did something with the intent to deceive. That is not the case here. I made a mistake which I admitted and I still stand by my comment that when I initially looked at the article, it appeared to me that he had not held a major named role. If you want to take my temporary inability to read as a malicious act, do so elsewhere because this has gone far off course and I've since expanded on why he is not notable. Further, if you think that I am acting maliciously, please take it to the appropriate venue. Thanks.Praxidicae (talk) 23:28, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

- Comment. As this is an article about a list that exists in the real world, we have two questions: whether this BFI list is notable, and how much of it can we quote or copy. Merely having an article about this list is not in and of itself a copyvio, so if the topic merits inclusion, I don't see that being a deletion rationale, and we've dealt with this with other notable lists. postdlf (talk) 12:14, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

BFI (British Film Institute) is notable and a quick google search will find hundreds of movie sites where the list is displayed.

- Delete: Per nom and User:Reywas92. The one reliable source states "The following is an alphabetical list of the ten most recommended films for children to see:". This is noted but where does the other 40 come from? Apparently the "British Film Institute" in the "External links" section. It is there because it would potentially be a copyvio to use as a reference. Also, WP:OTHERSTUFF is not a good argument in an AFD. Otr500 (talk) 02:50, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. The BFI is, of course, notable, but not every list of films that they produce is. Fundamentally, this lacks meaningful independent coverage. One BBC article isn't sufficient. And there's good reason to expect the minimal attention this list received, because the BFI itself described this list as "in no way final". As far as I can determine, they never revisited this concept after the initial BFI/Barbican Centre collaboration. Insufficient coverage plus the complicated question of whether we can even reproduce lists like this for copyright reasons both strongly suggest that there's only one policy-compliant outcome here.

- These are indeed all passing mentions, save for the last one, which is from a 1939 book titled Naša Gospa od Zdravlja i njezina slava, by Ante Crnica . In it, there is a chapter dedicated to B. Pavlović ([33], pp. 215-220). It does mention his 1747 work, but does not assert its importance either. In particular, looking at this chapter, I cannot find anything of significance that would count towards WP:NAUTHOR. GregorB (talk) 17:33, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
Relisting comment: Relisting for a third time to allow for input regarding sources presented late in the discussion.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 14:41, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
- Weak keep This is a difficult subject to comment on. The article claims that the subject's published works were an important development in the Croatian language. The article about the Croatian language has a total of one sentence about the 18th century, saying "However, this first linguistic renaissance in Croatia was halted ..... in 1671. Subsequently, the Croatian elite in the 18th century gradually abandoned this combined Croatian standard." The next para in that article is about the 19th century. So whatever happened in the development of the Croatian language in the 18th century, English Wikipedia has no information about. Croatian Wikipedia has a longer section about that time period, which mentions a few authors but not Bernardin Pavlović.
- There are certainly sources with more information about him, but most only have snippet views available on Google Books. The journal Mogućnosti, Volume 44, Issues 1-9, p 10 (1997), has an article which includes these lines (visible in the Google Books search result, but not in the snippet view; translation by Google Translate): "On May 6, 1730, Bernardin Pavlovic reached the Duchab on May 6, 1730, asking the statesman to reach the church authorities and proclaimed him a legitimate and legitimate place of residence, but the subsequent events reduced things faster than he thought. God. 1731. proclaims plague ." A 1934 source, Danica, shows in the Google Book search results the lines "Bernardin Pavlovic, Elder Franciscan, Our Lady's image of this fence. Archbishop of the Priest came to the other side of the fence and at that place solemnly blessed the image of Our Lady by finding that he was exposed to worship in one beautiful place .." Again, the snippet view does not show that part of the page, and it's not at all clear what this is about, or how much there is about Bernardin Pavlovic, but, like the 1997 source, it does seem to be about something other than his publications.
- My conclusion from these very partial glimpses of sources is that, including the 1939 book linked above, I think enough probably does exist for him to meet WP:GNG. The sources which mention him date from at least the mid 1800s to the 2000s, so there is certainly sustained coverage. (Is there a National Dictionary of Biography for Croatia or any of its predecessor states? He seems the kind of person who might be included.) RebeccaGreen (talk) 11:16, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
- Keep There are sources on the person, although Google Books offer only snippets, they might be more than passing mentions - [34] (looks to be the start of a biography)[35] as well as others [36][37][38][39]. It's hard to tell from some of those that offered only snippets if more are written there, but cumulatively they do indicate that he is not a nobody and may qualify under WP:GNG.

- Delete I'm not finding any evidence the individual has played in an actual NFL or CFL game, so that's a failure of WP:NGRIDIRON. Looking at his college play, it doesn't look promising--I'm only finding basic "transactional-type" and/or blog entries, and even those reports point to a lack of notability. For example, Fansided blogged "I’ll be honest I was excited thinking about what Nate Iese was going to bring to the group last year with his size and athleticism. He had an okay year for the 2016 UCLA Football team catching the ball but his 25 catches for 400 yards and four touchdowns didn’t blow anyone out of the water." The Sacramento Bee only had this to say: "Played fullback, tight end, linebacker at UCLA; considered a freak athlete." I have to admit that I don't know what a "freak" athlete is, but it doesn't sound like he was able to generate enough press there to surpass WP:GNG. There is a pre-season article at the Orange County Register where he got several paragraphs outlining the "anticipation" of what he could do, but by all measures I can find he didn't produce the results that this one article of hype predicted. There certainly are not a good selection of independent reliable sources that wrote about his efforts and I can find no other notability measure that points to a pass. Anyone have better/different research?--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:09, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete as the article fails WP:GNG on numerous levels. He was with the team for a short time and most of the points were very well stated by Paul McDonald.

- Weak Keep - Josiah Wedgwood has been the subject of numerous biographies. An early biographer who wrote a two volume biography and a number of additional books is Eliza Meteyard. Based on her book, I think there is a good case the Josiah's brothers, Tom and John, are both suitably encyclopedic subjects for an article. Their lives and motivations are discussed in detail, and a good deal is known about them. You can see their entries in the book's index, here[40]. I think there is a much weaker case for Josiah's father. In this and other early, public domain biographies of Josiah, all that is written about his father is based on his will, his date of death, and generalizations about potters and inhabitants from Burslem during that period. I am !voting on all three AfDs (that of John Wedgwood (1721–67), that of Thomas Wedgwood IV and that of Thomas Wedgwood III) with this comment, as I think they are similar enough. I am voting weakly because I think the best proof of the subjects being encyclopedic would come in actually improving the pages (based on Meteyard or other sources) and I do not have time to do the improving myself. Smmurphy(Talk) 17:17, 21 February 2019 (UTC)

- Merge to a wider Wedgwood family to cover all the relatives of Josiah of dubious notability. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:42, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
- Weak Keep - Josiah Wedgwood has been the subject of numerous biographies. An early biographer who wrote a two volume biography and a number of additional books is Eliza Meteyard. Based on her book, I think there is a good case the Josiah's brothers, Tom and John, are both suitably encyclopedic subjects for an article. Their lives and motivations are discussed in detail, and a good deal is known about them. You can see their entries in the book's index, here[41]. I think there is a much weaker case for Josiah's father. In this and other early, public domain biographies of Josiah, all that is written about his father is based on his will, his date of death, and generalizations about potters and inhabitants from Burslem during that period. I am !voting on all three AfDs (that of John Wedgwood (1721–67), that of Thomas Wedgwood IV and that of Thomas Wedgwood III) with this comment, as I think they are similar enough. I am voting weakly because I think the best proof of the subjects being encyclopedic would come in actually improving the pages (based on Meteyard or other sources) and I do not have time to do the improving myself.

Not notable. Only claim to fame is being the father of a famous person, Josiah Wedgwood, (and two others who also have Wikipedia articles but whose fame is only because they were the brothers of Josiah Wedgwood).

- Keep as WP:INHERITED. There are times, and these 18th century industrialist dynasties are examples, when someone can be notable even though most of this is on behalf of other members of the family. The whole family is notable, as the multi-generational development of their family-owned business (which is certainly notable!). To omit one generation leaves us with a serious hole in the overall picture. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:20, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge. As Andy Dingley says it's the Wedgewood family that is notable, not each individual member of it. My suggestion is that all the Wedgewood articles up for deletion here be merged into a single article about the family, which can both cover why the family matters, and briefly summarise the lives of individual members. Mccapra (talk) 13:29, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oh, so this is another of those AfDs where it's a bulk AfD, but done silently without cross notifications? 8-(
- I'm against merging. The borderline ones will be very thin articles, but they're just easier to manage as clear nodes within the namespace. Even if merged, we'd still keep them as redirects. That said, merging to the family article would still be better than deletion. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:34, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- There is already a Darwin–Wedgwood family article and I could see him mentioned there or in Josiah Wedgwood's own article (along with his two brothers Thomas Wedgwood IV and John Wedgwood (1721–67) who I also suggested for deletion, my apologies for not cross-linking them). I note that this Thomas Wedgwood was not a notable potter nor was his son Thomas and his son John's main importance separate from the other siblings was that he was murdered. If anything, the Thomases, father and son, were rather unsuccessful and the father died when Josiah was only 9 or 10. I also note that if you are trying to show how the previous generations (many of whom were also potters) connect are we going to include articles for all the individuals that connect Josiah Wedgwood to his wife and third cousin, Sarah Wedgwood? --Erp (talk) 05:21, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:ATD and WP:PRESERVE. There are details of the various Wedgwoods in works such as Chaffers. Andrew D. (talk) 16:18, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- I would say that mention in Chaffers is not sufficient; his work was an attempt to list every maker (Marks And Monograms On Pottery And Porcelain: With Historical Notices Of Each Manufactory (1866)). I don't think Wikipedia should consider each and every manufactory of pottery to be significant enough for an article. Note also that Thomas III and Thomas IV are one manufactory (Josiah started his own separate from his brother). John Wedgwood wasn't even a potter. --Erp (talk) 17:48, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- It is our policy that "there is no practical limit to the number of topics Wikipedia can cover" and so there is no reason to arbitrarily limit our coverage of potters to those that Erp prefers. My !vote stands. Andrew D. (talk) 12:27, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
- Lol..."this policy is not a free pass for inclusion: articles must abide by the appropriate content policies". This is a meta-reasoning (WP:EVERYTHING): Wikipedia merely being able to have article on anything doesn't mean it should. The content on the person may still be WP:PRESERVED in the family article rather than in a separate one. Reywas92Talk 08:23, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

- Rename and repurpose -- The Darwin-Wedgewood family article seems largely about the Darwin family, but bringing in a few relatives with other surnames.

- Keep Cracked has an entertaining account of the character and it's not difficult to find similar coverage elsewhere. The nomination's assertion about the WP:GNG is therefore false while its claims about Wikia are remarkably irrelevant. Andrew D. (talk) 10:10, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- The information provided from the Marvel Wikia goes directly to a lack of significance within the fiction. Marvel has published 60+ comics a month for almost 80 years.

The result was redirect to Dos Yiddishe Licht. Two people argued to merge, but the counter-argument that without references, you don't have WP:V, precludes a merge. Still, the suggested merge target does mention this, so a redirect, per WP:ATD seems reasonable. The history is still available, so if anybody wants to mine this for material to merge. If you do that, however, you need to find WP:RS to support any merged material. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:38, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Keep. Mostly notable as Das Yiddishe Licht, and not the newer Beleichtungen. Title probably should be the newer one, but Das Yiddishe Licht should redirect here. As a Yiddish paper in Jerusalem - English BEFOREing won't get you far (though I suspect the yiddishkeit rags in New York probably do refer, in Yiddish, to the Jerusalem Yiddish rag). There are however quite a few Yiddish (which is harder for me to assess RS-wise) and Hebrew hits, for instance: This academic paper on the use of Hebrew and the Yiddish language used in DYL (lots of different types of Yiddish are extant - though following the Holocaust, it has all become a mishmash)..... Here a Haredi paper refers to DYL. Quite a few Hebrew book hits, harking back quite a bit (e.g. 1945) - [47][48][49][50][51][52]. I would expect even more hits in Yiddish literature - whose online availability is spotty, to say the least (Hebrew ain't great either online, but there's quite a bit more). Icewhiz (talk) 09:20, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge to Dos Yiddishe Licht. As a DYL was created too, and since I do not think Beleichtungen is independentally notable from DYL per my search - a merge to there, leaving a redirect, is probably the best course.Icewhiz (talk) 19:38, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Partial merge to a disambiguation page. Unless there is enough material for a standalone page, I think a redirect to a disambiguation page instead of an unrelated newspaper would be preferable and less confusing for readers. 24.84.14.158 (talk) 22:43, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

While this GrandPrix event is notable, it doesn't mean that all subevents (individual gender/weight classes) have the necessary notability to support stand-alone pages. Fails WP:NEVENT.
If we compare it to other sports with multiple subevents, it looks as if neither athletics, judo or karate have similar pages, apart from major championships (World, Olympic), where this is generally accepted. It is rare for such subevents to get the sustained coverage needed for an individual page, usually they get reported upon when they happen, and after that are just passing mentions or lines in databases.

This is a connected-editor puff-piece, with enough references to give the impression that the person is notable. However, I believe that notability is not established; Jashni gets a number of passing mentions, as a "creative officer" (here) or as one of a team of producers. I see no in-depth coverage of him or of his achievements, nothing to to suggest that he is any different from the thousands of behind-the-scenes people who help make notable films happen, but do not in that process themselves become notable.

The result was keep. After extended time for discussion, there are three firm !votes to keep, premised on a reasonable examination of available sources, two firm !votes to delete, and one !vote leaning delete. Normally, the nominator would be counted as a vote to delete, but in this case User:Balkywrest as nominator has been blocked as a sockpuppet of User:Septrillion. It would be odd to give substantial weight to the opinion of a sockpuppet in a discussion, and no less so as nominator. Thus, although the opinion of the nominator is not discounted entirely, it must be given little weight in the outcome here. Given the previous extension of time for this discussion, and the tendency over the course of the discussion for additional sources to be found, relisting this nomination in expectation of a different consensus seems an unwise use of resources. The article can clearly be improved by the addition of sources raised in the discussion, and those supporting its inclusion should consider taking on this task. bd2412 T 02:02, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. There's a TechCrunch article ([53]) which is a yellow-light source, and can be counted for limited additional notability, on top of sources already discussed above. I don't see any discussion of Globes ([54]) as a source, but it appears reliable and is a national newspaper, so I assume this article can be counted towards notability as well. Lastly, there's a Mother Jones article ([55]) which is definitely a green-light reliable source, and is definitely not biased in favor of this company. That's decent press in two countries. - WPGA2345 - ☛ 01:13, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete None of the sources meet the criteria for establishing notabilty. The Globes article is an interview with the founders, not intellectually independent, fails WP:ORGIND. Both this Jerusalem Post reference and this one are classic chrurnalism - faux "profiles" complete with the usual photo/quotes/vision/growth/funding structure but, you know, no actual "news", fails as not being intellectually independent, fails WP:ORGIND. The MotherJones reference is the best of a bad lot but it is merely commenting on the WSJ reference and doesn't provide and in-depth information on the company and fails WP:CORPDEPTH. This company obviously has a marketing dept but the topic does not appear to be notable and fails WP:NCORP and GNG. HighKing++ 12:01, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I feel like there are plenty of sources available that do not amount to churnalism. In addition to the other sources noted on here, there are two articles from The Wall Street Journal (one's a WSJ blog, but it's still a highly reputable source) and there's one from Reuters. Also, a Google News search reveals a number of sources, many of which are funding announcements. I realize that's not a way to contribute to notability, but those sources are at least supplemental.

Looking at the sourcing the only sourcing that is indepdent and reliable is connected with his run for US senate. The problem is we have decided that not all candidates for public office are default notable, but the coverage he got is just at the level any candidate can expect. The last discussion 14 years ago was clearly misguided, it included such gems of early Wikipedia thought as a keep vote that essentially boiled down to "keep because Ilike the fact that this candidate set his campaign website up as a .org website and not a .com website". I am less than convinced that a website that aims to get you put in a position where you get oaid should be anything other than .com, but I clearly do not think either way should influence inclusion in Wikipedia.

- Delete. Our notability standards for politicians have evolved significantly since 2005, so the first discussion is not determinative in and of itself. At that time, there was still some support for the idea that non-winning candidates for office should be considered notable enough for articles, though that's been much more definitively quashed in the intervening 14 years — now, the standards that a non-winning candidate for political office would have to pass are that either (a) he can be shown to already have had preexisting notability for other reasons, independent of the candidacy, that would have gotten him an article on those other grounds anyway, or (b) he can be shown to have received so much more coverage than most other candidates also got that he has a credible claim to being special. So he might get over our notability standards for businesspeople if somebody could reference his work as CEO of an internet provider much better than this, but simply saying that he was CEO of an internet provider without sourcing the claim at all doesn't get him past condition A — and there's definitely no evidence of condition B on the table here at all.
