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

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Radio, and Australia. Skipple ☎ 17:34, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete as failing WP:GNG. He's written a lot of articles, but I was unable to find any coverage of Helmes. W42 17:40, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Plenty of "about the author" hits for the various publications he uses, social media links, nothing about him. Oaktree b (talk) 17:53, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

The result was redirect to List of Papua New Guinea women Twenty20 International cricketers. Liz Read! Talk! 19:11, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

While the subject has played at the international level, and thus would meet WP:CRIN, the subject does not pass WP:GNG as no significant coverage of her exists. Per WP:NSPORTS2022 "sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject". This may also be a case of WP:TOOSOON as the first international game was played less than 2 weeks ago. W42 16:44, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Women, and Cricket. W42 16:44, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to
List of United Arab Emirates women Twenty20 International cricketersList of Papua New Guinea women Twenty20 International cricketers. Fails WP:NSPORT both WP:NCRIC and WP:SPORTCRIT. With no significant coverage, and all the sources being statistics or passing mentions in routine sports reports/announcements, inclusion here is best done in an appropriate list. wjematherplease leave a message... 17:44, 3 October 2022 (UTC) - Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople and Oceania. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 18:43, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Presumably Wjemather means redirect to List of Papua New Guinea women Twenty20 International cricketers? I'd go along with that redirect certainly. Blue Square Thing (talk) 09:01, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks. Yes, of course. Copy-paste error while redirecting a batch of other similar stubs to avoid more AFDs! wjematherplease leave a message... 11:30, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Papua New Guinea women Twenty20 International cricketers (as appears to have been done with others). I keep asking people not to create these anymore despite in this case having played in a major qualifier event unless they can find additional coverage. Thanks also for adding the nolink parameters on the list page. Bs1jac (talk) 09:09, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- I would also agree with the comment that this is a case of WP:TOOSOON. There are still a couple of users at least who create players (either as stubs or redirects) as soon as an individual features in certain tournaments, when really playing in said tournament should only be the first step towards a page being potentially viable. Bs1jac (talk) 15:11, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
- This page should stay as the player has played in 2022 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Qualifier tournament. As per Wiki Project Cricket Notability, the player's page can be created. Thanks,Vikram Maingi (talk) 14:46, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, according to WP:NCRIC, WP:CRIC notability point 2 and WP:OFFCRIC (international cricket point 3), a person from an associate nation playing in the women's T20 WC Qualifier passes minimum cricketing criteria, but they must also meet WP:GNG. Bs1jac (talk) 20:27, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of Papua New Guinea women Twenty20 International cricketers Fails WP:NCRIC as T20I matches weren't in notable competitions for notability, but more importantly fails WP:GNG. Redirect here is a suitable WP:ATD. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 17:53, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Technically the T20I matches in question are notable enough according to WP:CRIN which expands on WP:NCRIC, and WP:OFFCRIC; but that changes nothing as the player must still meet WP:GNG. Bs1jac (talk) 08:49, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
- It should be noted that since the changes to NSPORT following the WP:NSPORT2022 RFC (particularly the removal of participation based criteria), it's clear that (as it stands) CRIN does not have community support, so cannot be used to determine notability in any way. wjematherplease leave a message... 10:05, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
- Ah I thought that the big update to NCRIC had sorted all of that. Regardless, Associate nation players need to pass GNG going forward anyway. Bs1jac (talk) 16:11, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

Fails GNG and NPOL. Ministerial position is an appointment and no election was involved. Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 15:02, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People and Politicians. Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 15:02, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- TNT: A cabinet minister is an WP:NPOL-conferring position, so he is notable. However, the article is better off being WP:TNTed and started again, as it is of practically irreparably poor quality. Curbon7 (talk) 18:24, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- I can handle writing up the new version, as I have experience writing about South Sudanese government ministers. Curbon7 (talk) 01:50, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
- That would be wonderful. I created a barebones stub at Talk:Martin Abucha/Temp which is meant to be used in place of the copyvio. It could stand a good dose of expansion and improvement. Whpq (talk) 02:02, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

*Keep the subject is notable and the statements in the article are clearly verifiable. Deletion is not cleanup. I will tidy it up now but there’s no need at all for deletion. Mccapra (talk) 18:56, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
Keep- Mining minister is a position in the national government's cabinet. WP:NPOL is clearly met. There is no requirement for the position to be elected, and I would be surprised if any cabinet level position in any government in the world was an elected one. I disagree with the sentiment expressed above that TNT applies. It is not a well-written article but it is not in such an irredeemable shape that requires deletion to resolve. -- Whpq (talk) 19:08, 3 October 2022 (UTC)- Delete - After further investigation, there is significant copyright violations from the initial version. A fresh article from scratch without foundational copyright issues would be better. -- Whpq (talk) 19:23, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- sounds better Okello Justine (talk) 08:01, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:TNT. There isn't really anything worth salvaging here since it's all copyvios. Subject might be notable though. Waddles 🗩 🖉 19:49, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I’ve struck my !vote in the light of potential copyright issues. A clean start may be best after all. Mccapra (talk) 19:53, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- isn't there a way i can rework on that martin abacha article again? i wanted to correct the mistakes but i cant even tap on the article Okello Justine (talk) 07:59, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Answered on editor's talk page. Whpq (talk) 13:25, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete for Now: She is notable as she is a minister in Cabinet of South Sudan but there are copyright violations in the article so it have to be deleted. Contributor008 (talk) 17:34, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete as WP:TNT, without prejudice against recreation if somebody can write and source a new version properly. Even politicians who pass WP:NPOL aren't exempt from still having to follow all of Wikipedia's other content policies, such as our copyright rules. Bearcat (talk) 21:52, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

The result was merge to Jim Jones#Early life. Consensus here, after 2 relists, is that the content of this article should be merged into the primary article on Jim Jones. Liz Read! Talk! 22:05, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
- Early life of Jim Jones (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Should be deleted or merged into the main Jim Jones article Gtag10 (talk) 01:27, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Merge back I don't think this split was needed. Reywas92Talk 02:18, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Merge: I think that, while long, it does not deserve its own article. Asparagusus (interaction) 02:35, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Don't merge The content was split out at my suggestion in order to reduce the length of the main article and use summary style per FA requirements. There is still no space for most of the content in the main article (which is still probably too long to pass FAC). If this article should be deleted, it's because the details are excessive to the point of being unencyclopedic/intricate detail. I have no opinion whether this is the case. (t · c) buidhe 08:34, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Prefer to Keep If not, I prefer to delete and not merge. The main article is already well above size limit recommended by WP:Length. Early life sub articles are common on biographies of prominent figures, eg Early life and career of Abraham Lincoln, Early life and career of Thomas Jefferson, Early life of Marcus Aurelius, Early life of Isaac Newton, Early life of Samuel Johnson, Early life of William Wordsworth, Early life of John Milton, etc, etc, etc. This is common practice for splitting lengthy biographies into sub articles. —Charles Edward (Talk | Contribs) 12:17, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- That's the ultimate OSE to say that because other more famous people have subarticles (which are long than this one) that this one should have a subarticle. No one denies the concept of subarticles, but the main article is just 61kb and this one remains quite duplicative of what remains in the main article as well. Reywas92Talk 00:29, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- I am ok with deleting this if that is consensus. But main article is over 10,000 words in the body, which is over the recommended length per WP:Length. I do not think we should merge the content back in. I do think the content is useful though, and would prefer to see it kept. Jim Jones is not a minor historical figure. There are more documentaries and books on his life than most of the aforementioned (Lincoln and Jefferson excluded) Jim Jones is one of the most wrote about figures in American history, and his early life is critical to the formation of his ideology. So it is a noteworthy topic, IMO. Cheers! —Charles Edward (Talk | Contribs) 14:47, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Also - just want to point out. The Early Life section of the main article is the only section of the main article which will no longer have a sub-article when this is merged back in. The main article presently has five sub article. I also point out that merging this back in would go against the recommendation of peer review, the FAC review, and the GA review of this article. —Charles Edward (Talk | Contribs) 16:06, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Religion, and Indiana. Skynxnex (talk) 13:37, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Merge all (and only) pertinent information into main article. Trillfendi (talk) 16:17, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Merge into Jim Jones#Early life, in agreement with the nominator and others that a separate article is excessive. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 22:39, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

No apparent notability. The article reads like a genealogical entry, presumably because there is not much else to say. It appears that the article exists solely because he is a great-grandfather of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, but that is not a good enough reason. Surtsicna (talk) 21:20, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. Per Surtsicna. There seems to be no coverage in the sources that justifies notability. It is a merely genealogical entry. Sole claim to notability seems to be its relation to The Queen Mother and Elizabeth II. Jtrrs0 (talk) 17:41, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Does not meet WP:GNG. While a distant link to the Queen Mother and Elizabeth II, this is not sufficient alone for the article. Coldupnorth (talk) 17:33, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

No indication of nobility. The article is no more than a genealogical entry, as there is nothing else to say about the subject but their spouse and children.

Notability on Wikipedia is not inherited; all coverage this person has received in reliable sources is a consequence of, and relates to, her relationship to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Vanamonde (Talk) 20:24, 2 October 2022 (UTC) For the record, I'm fine with a redirect, and would prefer that to outright deletion. Vanamonde (Talk) 15:22, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

- Comment. This is a misinterpretation of inherited notability. It doesn't matter why reliable sources cover her, only that they do (or don't, as the case may be). If she's received significant coverage, then she's notable, no matter who her son might be. pburka (talk) 20:40, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- That isn't accurate, Pburka. Family members of famous individuals routinely receive extensive coverage in the media; we have articles on them only when they are a) independently notable, or b) when there is such a volume of coverage and biographical detail that a standalone page becomes necessary. Neither is true here. Vanamonde (Talk) 20:50, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- That's not supported by policy. If family members of famous people receive extensive coverage then they are notable per WP:BASIC. We don't care why someone became famous; only that they are. I encourage you to review WP:NOTINHERITED and WP:INVALIDBIO, which explain that significant coverage determines notability regardless of the person's relationship to a more famous person. She's not automatically notable because of her famous son, but she's not automatically non-notable, either! pburka (talk) 21:51, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- You've both misread my statement, and misunderstood that essay. Nowhere have I said she's not notable because she's related to Narendra Modi; I've said she has no coverage that doesn't relate to that relationship. To put it in language you seem to prefer, SIGCOV does not exist, because the coverage is all about her son. Vanamonde (Talk) 22:20, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Neither is true here. Vanamonde (Talk) 20:50, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete, relationships do not confer notability. She has received coverage, yes, but significant coverage? No. Only coverage for being Modi's mother. Bishonen | tålk 21:06, 2 October 2022 (UTC).
- Redirect to Narendra Modi, where the known and essential biographical details of Heeraben can be mentioned. I looked through all the cited sources in the current version and if one looks past the RefBombing, there is really no substantial independent coverage to be found. The sources essentially fall into two groups:
- Thousands of similar sources with trivial and/or non-independent coverage can be found on a web/news search but that does not help establish notability under WP:GNG. And a Google Book search spits out only sources in the first category along with this self-published book of images of the Modis "taken from the internet". Abecedare (talk) 22:03, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect per Abecedare above. Please note that her name can also be found spelled Hiraben Modi (already redirected) and Hiraba Modi in the English language press. Storchy (talk) 10:16, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep : She is the recipient of Nari Jagran Samman 2016 award and its reported by all major newspapers in India. Being Modi's mother and being Nari Jagran Samman 2016 award makes her to pass the minimum 2 notability factors.Additionally she is within the Category:Indian_centenarians . Thus I think this article could be kept live. Jehowahyereh (talk) 15:35, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Or some of the Toronto-based CBC coverage (most of the coverage is indeed from Newfoundland, but some of the CBC coverage is very national - and the story did receive national attention at the time).

- Comment. The standoff appears to clearly be notable, and I think that the subject would be better covered in an article about the event rather than having a standalone article. He's not a WP:BLP1E; he has received coverage outside of the context of the standoff, but the extent has been much more minor. That being said, no page for the event yet exists, and I would hesitate to delete a notable article on the basis that some merge with a not yet existing article would be a potentially better way of providing coverage. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:41, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep or Move to an event page. Passes WP:SIGCOV. There's not really a policy based reason to delete or move this page as an WP:ATD. We have enough WP:SUSTAINED significant coverage across multiple events to prove notability for a biography page per WP:BASIC, and the coverage is sufficiently national in scope to pass criteria 1 of WP:CRIMINAL. That said per WP:PAGEDECIDE, I do think we might achieve better coverage for editorial reasons as an event page rather than a biographical entry.4meter4 (talk) 14:45, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

The only possible case for notability seems to be the allegations of a crime that he has never been convicted of committing; as a non-public figure the BLP implications there are not good. His actual conviction for illegally practicing medicine is completely mundane (hardly rising to the levels recommended in WP:CRIMINAL of being well-documented and historically significant), and the coverage of it appears to be completely routine.

Since this proposed deletion, I have tried to find more things to help save the page such as the actor was part of African Pan Players, who were invited to Senegal in 1966. There, with the Negro Theatre Workshop, they presented a show about slavery and the evolution of African art.[1]
Then again, there are actor pages that have been on here for donkeys (Frederick Hall, Roy Spencer, Tom Kelly, Laurence Harrington, John Hallet, Eileen Helsby, Timothy Walker, Leonard Trolley to name but a few) and have gotten by with naff all for sources.Silurian25 (talk) 11:23, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- That source is a single mention of Bisi-Pedro in a list of names which does not constitute WP:SIGCOV.

- Keep : I think this is clearly a well sourced article about an actor. It has (currently) seven citations, two of which are from textbooks. There are stubs which have many fewer citations than this, and indeed much less content, and are retained as encyclopedic. To delete this perfectly serviceable article would be ridiculous, and would not serve the overall goal of the encyclopedia. Patr2016 (talk) 19:24, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
- But all except possibly one of those seven citations do not meet the requirement of being significant coverage in independent reliable secondary sources. They are either unreliable web sites or only give Bisi-Pedro a name-check without providing any information. The possible exception is ISBN 9781840027631, which I can only see a snippet of on Google Books, but that snippet, and the extra content that I can see in a Google Books search, looks like an interview or quotation from him rather than anything that writes about him. I can find no other sources to expand on these. I have looked for both "Ilario Bisi-Pedro" and "Ilario Pedro". Phil Bridger (talk) 20:46, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

- He wasn't a YT guru, but a person regarded as the founder of the Salafist movement in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a guy you can find a lot about from bunch of scholarly works spaning from 1988 to present. YT gurus don't have such notoriety. Governor Sheng (talk) 12:58, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

- Comment - there are probably thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of Salafi communities around the world, with each, or at least most, having a more or less charismatic preacher as a leader, are grouped in smaller or larger communities, more or less isolated from wider society, etc. Are they all due for their own standalone article, or we need to establish some significance in their existence, beyond the superficial passing mention in barely few secondary sources.--౪ Santa ౪99° 12:19, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
- There are enough sources. He didn't establish just any "Salafi" community, the secondary sources are good evidence for that. Governor Sheng (talk) 14:29, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep: Daft AfD for subject with clear notability case for their role in Islamism in the Balkans - has dozens of scholarly mentions. Iskandar323 (talk) 08:50, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Since when is Salafi religious fundamentalism equal Islamism? Who labels him as Islamist? Further, as I see the WP:Notability and WP:GNG we still need "Significant coverage", not passing mention - by the way, sources are good and independent, but they do not delve into Barcic persona and career as they should if we are to establish notability for standalone, mentions are anecdotal and superficial. I still wonder how many of people like this person could get their standalone article then, simply for being leaders of a village of 100 uneducated Salafi adherents, and/or caused a stir and commotion around a mosque that kicked them out. I mean, we have an article on fundamentalists like Kevin Swanson, but with him hangs half of United States conservative establishment, and he fills columns from Washington state to Finland, our guy here hangs with no one and fills only couple of those (online) tabloids in generally not so friendly countries to Bosnian Muslims, Serbia and Croatia. ౪ Santa ౪99° 01:24, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Islamist because he sought to impose his religious preferences, reject secular institutions and install rule by sharia law - that's pretty much the working definition of Islamism. The subject is mentioned in numerous reliable, secondary scholarly works. That is amply notable by Wikipedia standards. Iskandar323 (talk) 06:27, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- I did not find any one of these sources labels him Islamist, while your definition of Islamism is more than just reductive, and in case of this person simply not used by scholarship cited in article. As far as I was able to read through the papers, nobody gave any description in relation to him which fits our Islamism article definition. Every mosque and every Muslim community on the planet function upon Sharia jurisprudence, there is nothing mythical nor sinister about it. He rejected secularism and went to live life of Salafi preacher based on Sharia in the forest with 50-60 of his followers. All we have in these papers about that is anecdotal passing mention, without in-depth description about his agency and its extent - he had no political organization to voice his worldview, no access to mosques, and I bet he didn't live long enough to start exploiting YouTube. If every fringe guru from every god forsaken mountain with a YouTube account deserves an article, we would bury our project with them. Indonesia has 230 million Muslims and innumerable Salafi adherents, one major sectarian war and at least one major Islamist militia, and we have one article on a person, a leader of who knows how many Salafis under arms - in contrast we have three articles on village gurus roaming rural Bosnia, who in the last 30 yrs. were able to bring under their sway few hundreds of uneducated youths mostly with a criminal record. What's the point, am I missing something? ౪ Santa ౪99° 11:25, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Barčić isn't so isignificant as you think. The sources mention him as a person who fundamentaly shaped the Salafist community in BiH. The Salafist community in Bosnia and Herzegovina is itself a noteworthy phenomenon that needs to be explained on Wikipedia as well. Not only that, but as a sort of a pionir of the movement in BiH, he is mentioned by the sources, as a person who shaped also his "successors" Nusret Imamović and Bilal Bosnić, both of whom have their own respective articles here as well, and themselves are noteworthy. The mentions of him in the sources in questions aren't ancedotal, but well researched, as he is mentioned by notable researches from notable institutions, in a span from 1980s till the present day. That is not anectodal, and especially if the same facts were reported by many other scholarly sources. Governor Sheng (talk) 12:11, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

- Now, you're a consipracy theorist. And it's you who is actually biased here, claiming that only because some of the sources are based in Croatia or Serbia, that they're anti-Bosnian Muslim. That's why your objections aren't serious. Governor Sheng (talk) 12:07, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose In addition to an array of sources covering "Jusuf Barcic", there are just as many under the alternative name "Yusuf Barčić". Jusuf was a significant leader in the Salafist/Wahhabi movement in Bosnia and Herzegovina so I do not understand why he would be considered an insignificant figure. ElderZamzam (talk) 03:21, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
- How is he significant, what was he saying, writing (if at all), preaching, who influenced him and how, whom he influenced and how. Is he significant solely for being leader of Bosnian rag-tag group or was he a more than just that and how. Was he Modernist Salafi, Enlightened Salafi, was he purists, activists, jihadists. Article is grown paragraph or two since nomination, mostly through info repetition. This project lacks articles on leaders and authors the likes of Muhammad Musa Al-Sharif, but we have several Bosnian hicks, criminals and attention seekers, based on passing mention in several essays and papers on Bosnian group of couple of hundreds, not on any individual person. (It's like writing an article on local plum-brandy maker while lacking article on Pasteur. GNG says "significant" not any passing mention.) ౪ Santa ౪99° 19:10, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

By the way, now you are obviously misquoting me as well - I said "passing mention" in sources, no matter how many one find is not enough to establish notability, GNG requires significant mention, and then writers of that core policy give us example what they had in mind - you are senior editor of 8 yrs of experience and 19 thousands of edits, so you better go on and read it yourself.

- Yep. The key part your are failing to read over and over again is:
"Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material."
This subject has more than "a trivial mention" in multiple scholarly sources, ergo job done, ergo stop wasting community time. Iskandar323 (talk) 08:59, 15 October 2022 (UTC)- So? And how am I failing if I quoted it? ౪ Santa ౪99° 09:00, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Passes WP:SIGCOV from all appearances. The article is cited to several off-line books which appear to have significant coverage of the subject. The nominator has provided no source analysis, and we reasonably have no reason to believe that these sources aren't significant per WP:AGF, Wikipedia:Offline sources, and WP:Verifiability. In short, I am not seeing anything but a personally biased rationale for deletion, rather than a policy based rationale for deletion.4meter4 (talk) 16:42, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

Semi-procedural nomination.

Coverage in the other sources is more fleeting, but given that I wasn't even able to access half of them online I'm relatively comfortable !voting keep on the basis of the strength of the sources I could read. There's OR-ish content where citations to sources describing general conditions or events in the ghetto are tied to claims specifically about Suknik himself, which should be cleaned up, but that's not cause for deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 21:21, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

- Keep: Since "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." Samuels appears to have multiple articles primarily about him published in multiple secondary sources independent of each other and the subject. I think the NYT and Guardian obituaries mentioned above are likely enough to establish notability. TulsaPoliticsFan (talk) 20:17, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
- Should this count if a majority of the sources are all about his death? Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 02:59, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- If the sources were *only* about his death, WP:BIO1E might apply. But that is not what the sources are. They are full-length obituaries that summarize his life, not merely the one event of his death. They were not published because his manner of death made him famous, but rather because a famous person died. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:33, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- Should this count if a majority of the sources are all about his death? Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 02:59, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- Keep: since during his life, Samuels garnered some significant coverage in multiple notable outlets (e.g. BET [20], Newsweek [21], Complex [22], HipHopDX [23], Essence, Yahoo News, Parle) and his death caused wider coverage due to his impact on the internet including the New York Times, NBC News, The Root, Complex, The Daily Beast, and NPR and was featured in talks after his death among famous black women like Vivica Fox [24].

~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Santoshbeats (talk • contribs) 15:59, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep: Lucky Bisht is an former Indian NSG Commando and Spy. He was Bodyguard of Narendra Modi, Rajnath Singh, Parkash Singh Badal, Chandra Babu Naidu, Tarun Gogoi and L. K. Advani. He joined Special forces at only age of 16 in 2003. This makes him notable and The famous Author Hussain Zaidi is writing a story on the Life of Bisht. He is also Producer in Bollywood. He passes WP:GNG and WP:NFILMMAKER both. He has been Featured and Mentioned in many Reliable Sources. ---- Bhumihaar (talk) 09:41, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

- The high degree of sock/SPA activity in this AfD is astonishing. Curbon7 (talk) 21:37, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
- Soft Keep- This discussion seems a bit messed up as there seems to be SPA activities happening over here. Due to SPA's I was tempted to vote a delete, but as I did a bit of digging and per sources his name is associated with Narendra Modi and he is among top global leaders so I did found Reliable Independent Indepth sources in English and Mostly in Hindi too that not only has authors but were written from NPOV. The fact that he has been part of NSG and has served Narendra Modi and later he gained significant media attention (per WP:SIGCOV) there are sources like [42] this,[43] this Pioneer Group piece [44] this NDTV article, [45] this, and [46] this, also found this [47] piece where it reads Hussain Zaidi is writing his bio pic.
- Apart from that I also found [48] this piece of article that does mention him as a commando, Socks might be the reason if this page gets deleted but the fact about his notability for being NSG commando and being associated with Narendra Modi and later getting into entertainment Industry can't be denied so its a Soft Keep for me.

Thanks to the stupid WP:DRAFTOBJECT rule, seriously problematic articles can only be draftified once, and then need an AfD or some lame problem tags.
First award, fake. The UK parliament doesn't give this award, some obscure private organisation does.
Second award, probably fake, no actual evidence for this and unlikely that NASA would give awards for being a "reformer of Indian culture".
Third Award, some "Federation of Indian Association" would have named him "Hindu of the Year". This claim is repeated on many pages[61]. Strangely, this award seems not to have been given to anyone else, ever[62]

This is another serious case of WP:SOAPBOX and also (likely) WP:PAID. This article is a WP:PIG, full of unreliable sources and paid articles to create the impression that this person is notable, but he isn't. I can analyze source by source, but I can tell you people, that this article can only "deceive" those who don't speak Portuguese. I can tell you this, because in the Pt.WP, this article was not only deleted, but also salted after several SOCKs tried to recreate it over and over. The person behind these attempts, created numerous accounts, and the master account (ironically called "Lucamoreira") had to be blocked and globally locked. This is even more serious, because all this accounts and this article are linked to the BreakTudo Awards. Several people, paid for this organization, tried to use WP to promote their awards and the people linked to them. It is easy to determine that the creator of this article is linked to this organization, by simply looking into their talk page. Every time someone tries to delete one of their article, the process is plagued by several new accounts (many of them SOCKs or MEATs) voting to keep the article. That happened here both times their main article, BreakTudo Awards, went thought a AfD (see the first AfD and the second AfD) and also in the Pt.WP (See that the main account trying to recreate it in pt.WP was a SOCK). Again, none of the references in this article are from reliable sources. Additionally, many of them are simply paid articles that use the same pictures and also the same/similar text. Also, don't be surprised if this AfD is "invaded" by several new accounts, desperately voting for this article to be kept. This is what happens whenever one of the BreakTudo Awards-related articles goes through an AfD. Moreover, it's important to notice that this article went through an AfD before, and was deleted (see here). Kacamata! Dimmi!!! 01:13, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

A highly promotional article that seems to be either an autobiography or possibly UPE. I spent a good part of the morning trying to unpack what substantial coverage I might find from the press releases, calendar listings, user-submitted content, primary sourcing and the like. There is not much left to substantiate notability; the closest thing is the Austin American-Statesman piece on a gallery he opened in Austin to sell his own work. However part of that article is press release material. A BEFORE search reveals his own website claiming he is a "Renowned Artist and Top 10 Sculptor in the World"[63] in ALL CAPS!; social media, auction listings, art sales sites to buy his "one dollar sculptures" or NFTs, but no serious reviews of exhibitions, art historical critical analysis or what we would normally find for a notable artist. It seems that the article is unambiguous advertising WP:ADMASQ for an artist who does not pass WP:GNG nor WP:NARTIST. Source analysis chart below. Bringing it here for the community to decide.

- Hello, WomenArtistUpdates, ArtNet is a marketing website and database for art auction sales, which does contribute to notability (no different than a listing). It is "place to buy, sell, and research art online." However ArtNet News is a different part of the same site with news items with bylines, and editorial oversight; there is a discussion in the archives of WP:RSP stating the news items can be reliable. I think it's important to keep in mind that any artist or gallery can pay ArtNet/ArtNet News for a "home page" subscription, so the site also contains user-submitted/user-generated content. I've always been somewhat on the fence whether or not we should use the news site, but I feel the database is not very useful for what we do here at WP. Netherzone (talk) 15:56, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Netherzone, Thanks for the ping. I didn't mean to imply that ArtNet was a RS for proving notability. I did think it was interesting that that were so many entries and it gave me pause. I am so out of tune with 21st century artists I just wondered if I was missing something. After looking at the article yet again and reviewing your source analysis, I realize that it is truly is a very slick piece of promotion.

The article is overwritten and in need of paring down, some of which I have done, but that does not negate the reliable sources in the article that do show notability.

- Keep. I did go over her IMDb credits. She is a veteran British actress with leading roles in numerous TV series, which the article in its present state only mentions one. The problem of finding references in 2022 is that most of her roles happened pre-Internet and so there may be many newspaper, magazine, and TV interviews from back then that have not made it online. You would have to delete the Wiki bios of many otherwise famous character actors of old Hollywood for the same reason of limited references. Her article needs a table list of her credits, which could help and inspire researchers in the UK to find references. 5Q5|✉ 10:39, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

- Keep: The newspapers.com hits would seem to indicate there was significant coverage of the subject in the 1980s and '90s—more than merely listing her name in credits. For the reasons above, I believe this article should remain. Dflaw4 (talk) 17:29, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Very little significant, independent, and reliable coverage beyond the local news TV interview of the single event of him being one of 10 out of 10,000 to win a spot on the game's soundtrack. Uhai (talk) 10:56, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
- The DCTop20 artist profile of him appears to be legitimate coverage at first, but looking closer it's a promotional company for artists that he's likely paying (see here), so any of its content is not independent or reliable.
- The Hype Magazine source gives conflicting information regarding the contest, saying that it was 8 tracks selected out of 20,000 instead of 10 out of 10,000, so I'm not inclined to say it's reliable.
- The HipHopDX article is just two paragraphs, one of which is just a quotation, so it's not really significant or independent.
- The local news TV interview also states it was 20,000 submissions but the offical NBA 2K YouTube video description states 10 out of 10,000 so that's what I'm taking as the source of truth.
- Additionally, from what I was able to learn (here), his track wasn't even part of the original soundtrack of the game but was added to the game later alongside other tracks with updates to the game. To me, this doesn't even qualify him for WP:SINGER #10. The claim that he also has a track on the NBA 2K21 "next gen soundtrack" (which is, again, a collection of additional tracks that are not part of the original 2K21 soundtrack) appears completely unsubstantiated as I could find nothing that supports this beyond his own LinkedIn page.

- Keep. Neither the current state of the article, nor appearing twice on television are reasons to delete or keep. Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article. Although this article definitely needs improvement, the subject surpasses General Notability Guidelines. His adventures have received significant coverage from multiple independent, reliable sources over a period of time.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] These are just a handful of news sources covering his journeys, and they don't even include his reality show appearances or potential reviews of his book. McLeod is also currently executive director of the Glenn L. Martin Maryland Aviation Museum.[10] In short, ample sources exist for composing a neutral, well-written, policy-compliant article, even if it's only a few paragraphs. --Animalparty!

Some of the sources are newer, but it's the same mix of obvious paid puff pieces, press releases, passing mentions, and doesn't-even-mention-hims. His company and his father might be notable, but notability is not inherited on Wikipedia.

Storchy (talk) 13:39, 19 September 2022 (UTC)Despite appearances, there is nothing to show notability here. Although the article has been re-worked since the previous AfD, all the references are either passing mentions, or don't mention the subject, or are not independent.

- Comment - here's a source analysis:
- "ENSO Group's Vaibhav Maloo opens up on growth of young businesses and startups". 9 September 2022.: press release in barely comprehensible English, dated "Oct 09, 2022, 12:37 AM IST", which was 33 min prior to its addition as a reference by a busy anonymous editor. The conflict of interest is fairly obvious here.
- "A Long-term View: Vaibhav Maloo". The CEO Magazine.: adulatory interview by coffee table mag "The CEO Magazine", not a WP:SECONDARY source.
- "THE NEXT GENERATION LEADER OF ENSO". Daily Guardian.: obvious paid puff piece from a blog pretending to be a newspaper. "We accept sponsored blog posts and SaaS product reviews on Thedailyguardian.com . This is a business and marketing blog for entrepreneurs, and business brands."
- "Meet Vaibhav Maloo, A Visionary, Progressive Thinker, And Change-Maker In The World Of Business". Outlook (Indian magazine).: another obvious paid puff piece with no byline, from a paper that freely mixes real journalism with churnalism
- "Vaibhav Vinay Maloo is the Youth Icon Of The Year 2021". news24hours.in.: obvious paid puffery from a zero-value news blog "news24hours.in", nothing to do with News 24 (Indian TV channel), WP:BLOGS are not reliable sources
- "How Corporate giants are making healthcare better, expert Vaibhav Maloo explains". Zee News.: Zee News is reliable, but this is simply a very short interview, and therefore a WP:PRIMARY source.
- "Straight talk with Mr. Vaibhav Maloo". NewsX. Archived from the original on 2022-02-18.: I had to rescue this using archive.org, as the reference has been dead for months, so the article creator clearly didn't bother reading it before adding. It's another short interview, and therefore a WP:PRIMARY source.
- "Charting A Success Story That Can Inspire Future Generations, Make Way For Ace Business Personality Vaibhav Maloo". Hindustan Herald.: another obvious paid puff piece from a blog pretending to be a newspaper
- "Vaibhav Maloo, as an influential entrepreneur and MD of Enso Group, puts light on the corporate giant's role in healthcare". The Pioneer.: The Pioneer (India)'s own reporting is reliable, but they also carry press releases like this one.

- I think you sees every references as puff pieces. The Daily Guardian is definetly a news paper. Here is the epaper link of it https://epaper.thedailyguardian.com/ and its showing as correspondant written the article and not any sponsored disclaimer is seen in the article. About Outlook India magazine, it is a reputed Indian Magazine and there is no sponsered disclaimer in that article also Jehowahyereh (talk) 12:38, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- The CEO Magazine article is a mix of quoting his words and what the journalist understands. Thus definetly can be considered as a secondary source. Jehowahyereh (talk) 12:52, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- That Daily Guardian website also says "We accept sponsored blog posts and SaaS product reviews on Thedailyguardian.com . This is a business and marketing blog for entrepreneurs, and business brands."
- Outlook India likewise carries both real journalism and puff pieces. In this case, there is a very clear disclaimer, "OUTLOOK FOR BRANDS", at the top. If you have a browse through WP:RSP, you'll see that there are many well known papers and magazines that carry sponsored content. On Wikipedia, WP:SPONSORED content is not considered a reliable source. Storchy (talk) 12:55, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- The Daily Guardian article is not a sponsored one as it says written by correspondand and no tags/ disclaimer found. It is definitely a secondary source. The Outlook India article comes under the Business Spotlight section and Outlook for Brands doesn't represent any sponsored news instead its a section representing news related to Brands. It cannot be summoned as a sponsored article either Jehowahyereh (talk) 15:29, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

There is no such rule in wiki that any recent news article can't be added as reference. The news article seems credible to me as it says by CNBCTV18 . The news is provided by Press Trust of India, which is a nonprofit organisation Jehowahyereh (talk) 09:38, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
- No, there's no rule against adding a half-hour old press release to the bio of a businessman. It's just bloody odd. Here's a quote from that totally credible reference:
Vaibhav sees to cherishing the high-techs and ways to improve the management techniques to win the race. Claiming a flexible mindset, he asserts, “The technique of surgical operator helps him with the ability to execute tasks with minimal recurring costs and lighter books.”

- Keep : Comments are too harsh, and some comments are undermining all of Indian media, and his notability is clear. Article should be cleaned up and diverted to "Vaibhav Maloo" as there are multiple sources for the same facts. Nuttyprofessor2016 (talk)
- Reviewing admins, please note that Nuttyprofessor2016's edits to date have been almost exclusively on Draft:Vaibhav Maloo, requests for unprotection of salted Vaibhav Maloo (for which this source analysis by User:Jéské Couriano is eerily close to mine above), Vinay Maloo, Enso Group, and other directly connected articles. Not quite a single-purpose account, but damn close. Storchy (talk) 15:32, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete : All of the sources seem to be puff pieces. Definitely fails WP:GNG. Padgriffin Griffin's Nest 18:04, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep I checked out the source analysis by Storchy. About [64] I am not convinced why he rejected the link and did not accept it as RS. I don not understand why the date of publishing is the matter fr him! About [65], You are right the portal accept sponsors for publish paid articles but important point is on sponsored post you will know that as it will be show up on link of article (https://thedailyguardian.com/sponsered/...) or sponsored tag will be show p at the top of article. Therefore only because of the portal accepted sponsors, we can not rejected it as unreliable source. Many of reliable and independent portals has sponsors. About [66], as you mentioned its reliable and short interview but alongside withe other sources it will be helpful to establish notability. With all due my respect I don not believe in your source analysis because your provided reason is with the purpose of rejecting! About reliable press you claimed that are short! about significant coverage you claimed they are unreliable because of date of publishing or accepting sponsors and ect. Anyway as an entrepreneur per receiving significant overages, recognition and award he passes WP:GNG. Ginbopewz (talk) 12:08, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, many reliable sources host sponsored content. But on Wikipedia, that WP:SPONSORED content is not considered a reliable source, regardless of who's hosting it. There are also many sources here where they haven't even bothered to label obvious paid puff pieces as sponsored. All we have here is a mountain of puff pieces and sponsored content for sources. Storchy (talk) 12:31, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment that low rumbling noise you hear is the sound of a herd of meatpuppets, galloping up and over the hill to pile in here. Storchy (talk) 13:04, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment : You act like this site is fer-Meta CEO and just the first generation entrepreneurs but then the site is not complete. Family businesses and founders and achievers have a right to be here, why would you reject this good case for no reason? Fer real. I can say there are so many such prominent Indian cases that should be here considering its the 5th largest economy in the world through. You should allow few more who are NOTABLE. I can give you a list later. Do not try to create a paradigm shift but this argument may take one because of me so please be rational admin sirs/mams, and please consider the merit of this case in an unbiased way. Nuttyprofessor2016 (talk)
- Wikipedia has very careful definitions of what and who is notable enough for an encyclopaedia article. On Wikipedia, not all notable companies have notable heads, if all they've ever done is be the head of the company. The relevant guideline in this case is WP:BIO. You might also find WP:NOTINHERITED helpful. Storchy (talk) 14:50, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- I have seen cases go either ways on this very site about similar cases. This ain’t Bumble, of course, that anyone create a page, so notability is a criteria. He is also a columnist, FYI Nuttyprofessor2016(talk)
- Here are some other AFDs on non-notable heads of notable companies, for comparison:
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mark Aslett, president and CEO of Mercury Systems,
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bobby Castro, founder and CEO of BHG Financial. Storchy (talk) 15:19, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

- Columns that he's written himself are primary sources. Can you find significant coverage of his work as a columnist, in reliable secondary sources? Because if he's a notable writer, then that might be worth pursuing. Storchy (talk) 15:56, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- His work has been duplicated but as himself as primary source. I know that. A combination of all this and leading the WORLD’S LARGEST CYCLOTHON (by number), I think he should be fine. Floor is open.
- Nuttyprofessor2016 (talk) 16:17, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- According to the source cited he didn't lead the Tour de India, he "served in Tour de India organising body, ID Sports for a year". Storchy (talk) 16:29, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- He still shows as the MD on the official site. Please check. Served is a polite word for someone who has had an occupation.
- http://www.tourdeindia.asia/aboutus.html Nuttyprofessor2016 (talk) 16:40, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, that what "served" means in this context, but the reference in the article says "served for a year", not "serves". The reference you've just linked to appears to contradict the one in the article, but it does say that he's MD of ID Sports, who run the tour. I think I see why now: the Tour de India doesn't appear to have been held since 2013. You can certainly add that new reference though. Storchy (talk) 16:53, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- No, it hasn’t since 2013. That year was the larger of the two. ID sports still manages the franchise. Nuttyprofessor2016 (talk) 17:34, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

- Keep As an executive officer, he could be notable. Being managing director, chairman or member of boarding of truss of multiple notable companies including Enso Group, Tour de India, Enso Care, Enso Healthcare and BSE, was covered by reliable sources that paasing mention of him just to specify his positions. I think [67], [68], [69], [70], [71], [72], [73] and... would be enough to pass WP:GNG. ZanciD (talk) 20:48, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- These references are very poor as either press-releases, PR or interview or passing mentions or routine annoucements. None of them consisitute WP:SECONDARY coverage that is NOT PR driven. scope_creepTalk 12:21, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep- I read all Keep & Delete comments. Keep voters have presented logical reasons for their claim and I do agree with them. For example, an Indian business executive has had several important positions like as chairman or director in several notable companies. Sources in article prove it. Or several in-depth & reliable sources are mentioned by voters that help us know subject meets General notability guideline. I think sources in article are sufficient to show notability of a business executive. Yüsiacı (talk) 01:29, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Per the reviews noted and sources provided by ZanciD. most of the time, we have to choose between company or person who is the founder or main person of that, when one of them (company and chairperson) does not qualify for notability singly. As ZanciD noted, being Key person of multiple notable companies proved by sources, could causes to meet WP:GNG. Elbatli (talk) 20:42, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Effectively three WP:SPA sleeper accounts, likely paid editors coming in to fudge the Afd. No interest in sources. scope_creepTalk 12:08, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
- Strong Delete Through my own analysis of the sources and the reference review above it is clear this person is non-notable. It is a lot of routine annoucements, PR, press-releases, scheduled events, passing mentions and indirect sources, for example the company but no significant independent secondary coverage. Fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:BIO and that is an honest assessment. scope_creepTalk 12:12, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

Cannot find any better sources. 10 pageviews in 30 days for a UK BLP is very low, and indicative of a lack of notability. Fails WP:GNG. Edwardx (talk) 17:51, 13 September 2022 (UTC)

- Weak Keep I found a few references better than the ones in the article. There's this from the British Council. It is a blog post, but not an individual blogger. There is a film about fashion featuring him. There is a short description here: "The Irish designers everyone will be watching at London Fashion Week. (2017, September 16). Irish Examiner (All Ireland)." Other than that I came across interviews and a few name checks. Lamona (talk) 18:33, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Blogs are not reliable sources, per WP:BLOGS. And it is not a "film", it is a 1:28m YouTube video. Neither counts towards WP:GNG. Edwardx (talk) 18:29, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Eddie891 Talk Work 18:03, 20 September 2022 (UTC)- Reply See WP:NEWSBLOG - it distinguishes between self-published blogs and those that come under the editorial control of a reliable organization. Also, lots of things are on youtube including, for example, President Biden's speech captured by CSPAN. I don't think we would reject that because it has been added to youtube. The thing to look at is editorial control and reliability, not just the platform. Lamona (talk) 20:30, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:GNG. For example, see Vogue Italia 2010 (featuring Lawlor and his 2010/11 fall/winter collection) and Business Post (Ireland) 2013 (featured alongside 12 other Irish designers). He got a paragraph in the 2017 Irish Examiner preview of London Fashion Week, and his 2011 collaboration with Welsh designer Jayne Pierson fusing "his" knitwear with "her" leather to create a new textile was featured in Wales Online. There is also this 2012 Daily Telegraph article on his exhibition at the Fashion Space Gallery at LCF, which is paywalled. Cielquiparle (talk) 10:08, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
