Notability issue. Two sources are dead links (including 'DJ D' s own official website). The main source is a Dutch platform for party/events/sessions (fwiw: no Italian page on that DJ from Bergamo).

- Delete. For clarity's sake, I've looked at the deleted version and it pertained to a female DJ D from Australia rather than a male DJ D from Italy. So this isn't a recreation of the same article, but a different topic that merely happens to have the same name. That said, this article is parked entirely on primary sources, with no evidence shown of the type of reliable source coverage in media that it takes to clear Wikipedia's notability standards — and I can find no improved evidence of reliable source coverage on a Google search either. Searching on "DJ D" is virtually pointless (typical result: the dictionary definition of "DJ" as a verb whose past tense is sometimes spelled as "DJ'd" instead of "DJed"), and even his real name just brings more primary sources and hits for unrelated people. So while the article makes claims (mostly touring) that would clear WP:NMUSIC if they were sourced properly, nothing here entitles him to an article in the absence of proper sourcing to support one.

The result was delete. The general consensus appears that the Forbes article alone isn't sufficient for notability, while an opinion that other sources support notability, it isn't shared by participants and the consensus is that the subject fails our notability requirements. —SpacemanSpiff 12:10, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

promotional article, with one possibly acceptable ref, the Forbes India. The rest are the usual notices about funding that do not show notability . DGG ( talk ) 22:06, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Stubify/Keep Current article is promotional. But Forbes, and Hindu are god sources. The subject deserves an artcle. I say chop it down to 3-4 sentences or whatever the RS permits. —usernamekiran(talk) 23:27, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Delete. Little better than spam. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:40, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Forbes India, Mashable, and Quartz sources show notability to a wider audience than local news. Deccan Herald is a weaker source as it is local, but it's nontrivial coverage as well. The other sources seem to be promotional (e.g. ETtech) or press releases or routine coverage of registered businesses (e.g. Crunchbase), but the sources above seem to indicate non-local notability sufficient to meet WP:GNG. Promotional concerns can be fixed with editing; it doesn't seem to be a blow it up and start over case, and some editors have been working on editing for tone. Appable (talk | contributions) 16:29, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete -- the company have not achieved anything significant yet, apart from raising $30M. This content can just as effectively be housed on the company web site, where it belongs. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:18, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete GNG not met, nothing but routine stuff. Whenever I see a mention of a company's funding in a Wikipedia article, I switch off. Companies shouldn't pay people to write Wikipedia articles about them - they always turn out awful. Exemplo347 (talk) 15:05, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Rude: Not appreciated. I'm the one who wrote the article. While even a non-wikian can comment about the work and content and it is totally accepted, implying someone is paid to write this article when they are the one who contributes their own personal time without any financial or commercial gain is insulting. Fundings are integral part integral part of coverage when the article is on startups, browse any startup article for that matter, majorityof the TechCrunch articles will disappear if the editor plans not to cover the funding news or announcements, they are made into news even by the most trusted media houses are for a reason. Theaphorist (talk) 19:36, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Wikipedia isn't a newspaper. It's an encyclopaedia. Do you really think that in ten years' time, someone is going to want to read about the amount of funding a company has? The only reason that companies add information about their funding to Wikipedia articles is to boost their profile. It has absolutely no encyclopaedic value. Exemplo347 (talk) 19:57, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete essentially a spam article. Coverage is either routine or your typical PR business coverage that is frequently put out by marketing departments and published without much editorial oversight by the publisher. These don't get us to GNG. TonyBallioni (talk) 15:38, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- This is not by a PR or agency or by any companies department but by a fellow Wikian like you. A Google search will prove the relevance of the company. If it's about the tone of the article, why not someone volunteer to edit? Theaphorist (talk) 19:36, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- User talk:TonyBallioni did not start editing last week, and his edits are not limited to creating 2-3 entries for minor companies. Those, however, are hallmarks of a PR-hack: an editor who is paid to put spam on Wikipedia, and after few weeks will discard this account to get a new one (WP:DUCK test). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:47, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Winged Blades Godric 07:05, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. One good source (Forbes India), all others are routine business coverage (rewritten press releases). Not enough to make it notable. At best, could consider userfy, maybe in few years they'll get a second good article or some awards or something. For now, WP:TOOSOON at best - your usual WP:CORPSPAM creation by a undisclosed paid editor. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:47, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Exemplo347: @TonyBallioni:: Deleted the funding section. Not just Forbes; Quartz, Mint and the citations are high quality (not sure about the Yahoo news one though). 'Encyclopedia' point makes sense, not with respect to Wikipedia though. Take any publicly listed company or startup articles in Wikipedia, most will carry financial information like Revenue, Profit/Loss etc (public company) and Funding information and investor info (for startups). Let's get into the WHY part of it. Businesses are the money making entities and its success is measured in terms of Revenue, Funding, Impact or Innovations they make. If you go by the Encyclopedia logic, no Encyclopedia will cover how much money a particular company is making or the box office collection of all movies, but Wikipedia does; maybe that's how known companies and brands are evaluated by the business world and popularity is judged by the public recognition. I also understand that none of the fellow wikians are adding a response with any personal benefits in mind and for the betterment of the Wikipedia and it's article itself. One should treat everyone with equal respect here, while anyone is allowed to share their opinion, personal or remarks about a contributor or his intentions are not welcomed. Let's wait and see the validity of "DUCK" remark, skipping the response now. My intention is not to get into name calling or personal attack here for an article which is not providing me any value other than my belief that it needs to exist. Theaphorist (talk) 19:47, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- My above comment re: the sourcing was not about you or the article, but about its coverage in the press. It reads like your standard PR/marketing churn that are typical of business publications and where the editorial oversight could be slim. Coverage like this does not get us to GNG, even after the article has been cleaned up. TonyBallioni (talk) 19:52, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @TonyBallioni: Got it. Thanks for explaining, appreciate it. Theaphorist (talk) 20:03, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- At AfD, it isn't the condition of the ARTICLE that determines whether or not it is kept. What matters at AfD is the General Notability Guideline. If the subject of an article doesn't meet that guideline, the article cannot be kept, it's that straightforward. (Oh, and it's only one !vote per editor. You shouldn't be stating "Keep" more than once or you risk both of your votes being ignored by the person who closes the discussion). Exemplo347 (talk) 21:08, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

Article creator contested PROD. Article is about a businessman where the coverage that exists is mainly him giving quotes about businesses or organizations he is associated with, and would be trivial coverage under WP:GNG. The article also mentions his sporting accomplishments, but these all seem to be at a youth level and don't meet our inclusion criteria for sportspeople. TonyBallioni (talk) 20:37, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Comment.The Looney Toons wiki licenses] all of its works CC-BY-SA 3.0, which is a Wikipedia-compatible license (if attribution is maintained). A link to the article history there would satisfy the attribution requirement, so this doesn't necessarily need to be deleted solely on the copyvio grounds. That said, it's also not very helpful, being exclusively an unsourced plot summary with excessive detail for this project's purposes. Treating the topic on the merits, there are a few potential sources, but its debatable whether any of them constitute significant coverage; I'm neutral as to the outcome here, but a redirect to Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies filmography (1940–49) would be preferable to deletion. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 20:49, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- I've added the proper attribution for The Village Smithy (1936 film). The copyright issues can all be resolved similarly. Pichpich (talk) 20:52, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Update: I've fixed all 6 attribution problems. The question remains: do we keep these articles separate or merge them to a common target? But this is not an AfD question since deleting is not among the reasonable options so I suggest closing this AfD. Pichpich (talk) 21:05, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Or, at least, close on procedural grounds. When I first commented on this AFD, "The Timid Toreador" was the only article listed. Because the cause for deletion here is going to come down to notability rather than copyright issues, bundling is doing more harm than good; the works will need to be considered on their individual merits. "The Village Smithy", for example, has been recognized as an early use of parody in Tex Avery's works, which might distinguish it from titles like "Porky's Garden" that are primary addressed only in comprehensive animation surveys (but that may themselves satisfy inclusion requirements). There's just no way that these can be evaluated in an omnibus AFD. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 21:18, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

The result was delete.
First things first: Despite commonly being used as an argument, WP:GNG does not have to be met if a WP:SNG is met. WP:N is quite clear on that as pointed out by TheDragonFire when it says: "A topic is presumed to merit an article if: It meets either the general notability guideline below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline listed in the box on the right; [...]
" (emphasis added). In this case, there is no consensus that she has won "a well-known and significant industry award", so PORNBIO was not met anyway, rendering the discussion moot.
However, what those arguing for keep based on WP:PORNBIO seem to have overlooked is that Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Additional criteria, of which PORNBIO is a part, clearly states that those standards are mere indicators of notability, helping users to determine how an article should be handled. The actual criteria the article has to meet are mentioned in WP:BASIC which mostly mirrors GNG. Failing GNG will usually mean failing BASIC however unlike GNG BASIC explicitly allows combining multiple sources with non-substantial non-trivial coverage to establish notability, something those arguing along the lines of GNG should remember.
In this case, there were a number of sources mentioned but dismissed as merely trivial mentions at best, something that was not really disputed by those providing them (whether another user is "anti-porn" or not does not change the quality of the sources provided). Without any demonstration of "significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject
" (WP:BASIC), deletion was the only correct outcome.

- Keep - The subject here "has won a well-known and significant industry award", namely the Fans of Adult Media and Entertainment Award (which is basically comparable to the People's Choice Awards) for "Favorite Female Rookie", which is also similar to other well-known, major adult film award categories like the AVN Award for Best New Starlet & XBIZ Award for Best New Starlet. The fact that the award winners tied that year is pretty much meaningless, and there is no restriction against fan-based awards under our inclusion guidelines.

- Comment Per WP:N:
A topic is presumed to merit an article if it meets either the general notability guideline below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline
. WP:PORNBIO superseeds WP:GNG in this case. Regardless of the content of the article (which I have deliberately not looked at), arguments made at User talk:SophisticatedSwampert against their NAC are ridiculous. TheDragonFire (talk) 07:14, 7 July 2017 (UTC)- If you read PORNBIO its pretty clear that its a rough guide and that articles are still required to pass GNG. There is no evidence this does which means the trend at AFD is to give more weight to GNG then PORNBIO in close closes. So not ridiculous but thank you for your input.

- So lets recap. There are assertions that this passes GNG but no sources have been adduced that actually pass the GNG. This leaves us an argument about a possible PORNBIO pass that I don't believe for an instant is nailed on and a BLP that clearly does not pass the GNG. The trend is to give GNG more weight than PBIO in close calls and there is a wider project consensus that BLPs require proper sourcing. On that basis my reading is that this is a delete. The closing admin might take a different view but evidence (not assertion) of passing GNG and evidence of the significance of the award will help. Spartaz Humbug! 09:02, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

- Comment -- I question the assertion that "Fans of Adult Media and Entertainment Award (which is basically comparable to the People's Choice Awards) for Favorite Female Rookie" qualifies as significant and well known for the purposes of PORNBIO. Neither do I believe that there's consensus that this award is comparable to People's Choice Award. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:35, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment. Editor coffman is entirely correct. The source that likened the FAME awards to the People's Choice Awards was the FAME awards' own organizers/promoters. It's a defunct award, one in a series of short-lived awards organized by AVN in hopes of generating another profitable event to supplement its primary ceremony. The FAME Awards failed, one successor, the "Sex Awards", were cancelled when a planned streaming video deal tanked, and the AVN Fan Awards haven't gained any traction and been rebooted at least once. At least two other porn performers who won the same award in the same category have had their articles deleted this year. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006. (talk) 00:07, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
- Delete There are no sources to support the claims of notability. Particularly intrigued by an entry above claiming "thousands of sources online" and, amusingly, "It's a hot day here in the UK and I simply cannot be bothered to post all of the sources". For the latter, I certainly hope that Mr. Davey2010, was able to find himself a nice iced tea, a cool washcloth on the back of the neck, or at least a shady resting area. For the former, the google hits are to a 1) Daily Dot top 20 Sexy Snapchat list of dubious notability, 2) a seattlepi.com false positive, as the porn actress' name only appears in the image caption of slide 5/27, in a story about another woman entirely, 3) a charming tale from the Daily Fail (largely deemed a non-reliable source by this project) about a senior citizen and his sex doll (that he totally does not have sex with, he says) who is modeled after Alektra Blue. The sourcing is rather downhill from there, regrettably. TheValeyard (talk) 03:20, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
- I realize it may be bizarre to post the hot day thing however editors are expected to post actual sources which at the time I couldn't be bothered to do, It's better than saying "Oh yeah meets GNG" and not posting anything. –Davey2010Talk 19:40, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
Relisting comment: Needs an analysis of Davey2010's sources; if such are not forthcoming, GNG would not be met and since PORNBIO apparently isn't either (unless someone can refute Hullaballoo [sp?] Wolfowitz's arguments) deletion would ensue

- Yee-hah, let's analyze those "sources":
- "Snapchat Porn" - includes a picture of the subject's mouth and hand and her supposed snapchat ID. Nothing else. Worthlessd.
- "Seattle PI" - An article about a different porn performer does not even mention the subject, although she does appear in a group photo in an accompanying 27-image slideshow. Worthless.
- "Daily Mail" Includes a picture of an Alektra Blue sex doll in an article about men who own sex dolls. No info regarding article subject. Worthless.
- "lfpress" - An article which does not mention the article subject, illustrated with a group photo of porn performers, including Blue, not mentioned in the article. Worthless.
- "TMZ" - posed for a photo at a rapper's party. No other info. TMZ didn't even care enough to identify her in the photo. Worthless.
- "The Onion" - The fucking Onion. Namedropped in fake article on a fake/satirical news site. Utterly worthless.
- Jo-Jo Eumerus, it's obvious that these sources were posted without making one shred of an effort to assess their value. No editor should have to waste any more time going through the rest of the list demonstrating the obvious. Six straight strikes and you're out! Please delete the article now; the appropriate outcome should be evident. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.

- Perhaps you'd condescend to explain to us exactly how the "snapchat porn" piece, which literally includes nothing more than a picture of the supposed subject's mouth and hand, plus her supposed snapchat ID, constitutes evidence of notability.

- Strawman. You can include as many "fan awards" as you like, inclusion isn't the point of contention. The contention is that fan awards do not count towards determining notability. TheValeyard (talk) 20:56, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Then there's the philanthropy thing — which admittedly this article misses as written, but our article on the McEwen School of Architecture will make clearer.

The subject of the Thames Valley is well-enough served by the disambiguation page. Dissidentplasterer (talk) 18:25, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep. The use of the term "Thames Valley" long pre-dates the M4, although clearly the area overlaps with the M4 corridor, which is a much more recent term and covers an area extending much further westwards (as far as Swansea, perhaps). There are multiple published sources naming the Thames Valley - examples here. Although clearly the valley can easily be defined technically in geographical terms, the term is often used more loosely. But, the fact that there is no one single definition does not mean that there should not be an article about it - many ill-defined areas (such as the West Country) also have articles. The article itself is quite poor and needs to be properly referenced - but that is a reason to improve it, not delete it. Ghmyrtle (talk) 19:06, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- In fact, I think there's a good argument for that article not existing either - it's mainly just a list of things with "West Country" in the name, and "West Country" is essentially synonymous with the South West of England. The argument that the article could be improved, however, is predicated on the idea that there is something distinctly notable to say about it. --Dissidentplasterer (talk) 19:21, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- While the "South West" and the "West Country" are basically synonyms, the article South West of England is about the defined local government region. That strictly defined region is not synonymous with the fuzzy concept. The West Country could mean anything from just Devon and Cornwall to even including Herefordshire, but thoe alternative definitions have no place in an article about the region. Northern England is similarly poorly defined, but its article is currently at FAC. The lack of a single solid definition doesn't prevent a good article being written.--Nilfanion (talk) 21:47, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep The Thames Valley certainly exists as a distinct area within England, and is quite distinct from the M4 corridor (South Wales, Bristol and Bath are part of the M4 corridor but not within the Thames Valley). Aside from the valley of the actual river, the business district and the National Character Area are significant and those last two links could be used to substantially flesh out the article. The police area and the water authority area could also be discussed, and I'm sure there's other uses too.--Nilfanion (talk) 21:47, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Mild keep – Category:Airliner accidents and incidents caused by engine failure already exists, and its description explicitly mentions gliding as an inclusion criterion, so the list we're discussing does serve some purpose, although it requires some work: a) Strip all non-notable occurrences (such as 'flight engineer goes for a pee, all engines flame out, he comes back and all is good again'); b) Change the name to List of airliner accidents and incidents that involved gliding. EDIT: a corresponding category could be created as well. --Deeday-UK (talk) 20:59, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - I personally find the topic fascinating. Thus, in my view, the article contributes to the encyclopedia; does not detract from it. I had a look at wp:Stand-alone lists and didn't see anything that explicitly argues against or for this list in principle.

- Keep. Comment as the original article creator: The initial source of this was a list of similar flights that was taken from Gimli Glider [29]. Most of those articles then included links to other flights that involved gliding in the "See also" sections. It seemed to me to make sense to make a separate list article, so I crawled through articles and consolidated those links into this new standalone list. I considered making a category, but I thought a list would be better as it could include flights that did not yet have their own articles. (Note that Category:Airliner accidents and incidents caused by engine failure was created after this list.) —howcheng {chat} 17:50, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep 1) The vast majority of incidents are themselves bluelinked, indicating that it is a list of notable incidents and thus deletion demands a higher bar than if it were indeed of trivial events. 2) This is NOT a non-encyclopedic cross-categorization. "List of airline flights that had a red-headed pilot" would be, but gliding is an essential characteristic of fixed-wing aircraft, and so the list is a perfectly valid collection of incidents. Jclemens (talk) 03:54, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Misconstrued argument for deletion: WP:N is not fully applicable to standalone lists which should use WP:STANDALONE instead. In particular, the list/collection does not have to have independent notability on its own. Instead, it has to have clearly cut inclusion/exclusion criteria, have a finite number of potential elements, and ideally most of its elements should have independent notability (i.e., articles on Wikipedia). This list satisfies this, and so can stay. 10:19, 8 June 2017 (UTC) -- added by user:Kashmiri
- No, the misconstruction is yours. WP:STANDALONE says that WP:NOTABILITY does apply: "Being articles, stand-alone lists are subject to Wikipedia's content policies, such as verifiability, no original research, neutral point of view, and what Wikipedia is not, as well as the notability guidelines.". — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 19:58, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

- Where an inconsistency exists between project guidelines and Wikipedia-wide guidelines, the Wikipedia guidelines take precedence. But thank you for pointing that out. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 18:04, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- No contradiction. The notability of the list is taken from the articles. The flights are notable for gliding, making the list of flights that glided notable. 96.41.32.39 (talk) 20:25, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Well, that highlights my point in bringing this to AfD. There is no evidence that the flights are, as you claim, notable for gliding and not for other reasons. I am not saying that claim is necessarily untrue, only that no evidence has been provided. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 06:17, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
- Your argument is so convoluted, I cannot follow it. The flights on the list are notable for having some sort of an incident (that's why there are either Wikipedia article for them, or they should have Wikipedia articles). All the incidents on the list involved gliding -- which in most cases saved some lives (many many lives), as opposed to falling out of the sky and crashing. Therefore, the list of flights that have glided gets its notability from the flights that are notable for having glided. 96.41.32.39 (talk) 07:39, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

- Note that while article creator (497 edits to date) is a WP:NEWBIES, Nom is an editor with vast experience who ought to have followed WP:RAPID. As the closing editor wrote at a similar article that was rushed to deletion by Mr. X a couple of weeks ago and closed as No consensus, "Additionally, the incident happened very recently, and new information is still coming out about it. This article was created on the day of the incident, and the AfD was started 8 hours after the article was created (which is discouraged by WP:RAPID for this very reason). There will be a better opportunity for a stronger consensus to emerge after the dust settles." As an editor who regularly works on terrorism-related articles, I have real fear that rushing articles on breaking news events of this kind can tend to WP:DISRUPT the project by forcing editors - especially new editors - to run the AfD gauntlet. I strongly suggest that Mr X withdraw this. If his opinion is unchanged a few months, he can nominate it then.E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:31, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- I decline. There is no time constraint on deleting articles. Editors should use their judgement based on common practice, content policies, nature of the subject, WP:NOTNEWS, WP:10YT, and other factors. This article is about a person who hit another person with a hammer. Meanwhile, we don't have independent articles for the daily massacres in Syria and Iraq; street executions in the Philippines; or for the five people who were brutally murdered in Orlando, Florida yesterday. We need to instill some perspective into our content decisions and not simply try to promote an project-wide viewpoint that the world is besieged by Islamist terrorism.- MrX 18:00, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- El cid, I've been around long enough to have a pretty decent idea of how many articles we have, but thank you for the pointer. Now, "we've done a good enough job of making it notable"--a possibly Freudian slip. Blowing it up, with maps and flags and fancy names, makes it notable: you are suggesting we are making news, and given our high scores on Google searches that could be true--all the more reasons to be reticent rather than eager in writing up things that just happened. Yes, a majority of our articles are more notable than this topic (do not confuse an article with a topic). Drmies (talk) 12:19, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

- Besides which, an AfD isn't an instant process. In the event that the French cabinet does something significant as a response to this (or in the event that something else significant happens as a result of this), I for one am happy to revise my opinion and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one to do so. As at this precise moment, though, a redirect is an eminently sensible approach to take.

- Again, the question isn't "Is the article written?", much less "Is it bigger than article X?". The question is whether each and every terrorist attack is encyclopedic before they trigger any notable events beyond "Someone attacked people with a hammer at Notre Dame Cathedral". If the French President comes out and bans hammers from sale (to take a silly potential outcome), then there's patently an encyclopedic value in having this article. If life carries on much as it did beforehand, then there doesn't appear to be. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 02:56, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep Partly because new information continues to emerge. But also because the useful details are inevitably lost when an article is merged into capsule summary on a list. And also because the Cabinet has reacted by using this latest attack as the occasion on which to announce the creation of a new National Centre for Counter Terrorism ( a tough job just awarded to Pierre de Bousquet de Florian ) But mostly keep because such merges of well-sourced attacks are dysfunctional. This article is already linked from the proposed Merge target: List of terrorist incidents in June 2017 (Note that many incidents on that page are bluelinked.) But it is also linked from a number of other articles, including not only the obvious List of Islamist terrorist attacks,Notre-Dame de Paris, Islamic terrorism in Europe (2014–present), and ISIL-related terror attacks in France , but also the similar Notre Dame Cathedral bombing attempt, and 2017 Louvre machete attack, and from a what-were-the-odds windfall for American politician Nancy Soderberg: Clinton advisor, American national security expert and diplomat who is widely spoken of as a probable candidate to unseat sitting Republican congressman Ron DeSantis, a former Navy officer. Soderberg was in the locked-down cathedral, tweeting with great éclat. My point here is that not only the proposed redirect, but a redirect to any of the lists or articles from which this article is linked would represent a loss of functionality for the project. By keeping the page, we enable detailed information to be found and discovered by our readers.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:50, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- What useful information? Do we need extra details about how person x recited the Lord's prayer while being locked inside the church? The article can be summed up be saying "An Algerian student named Farid Ikken, injured an officer with a hammer then was shot in response by police. Ikken was an award winning journalist who lived in France who claimed to be a "soldier of the caliphate". As a response to the incident a new task force called the National Centre for Counter Terrorism was created, and the state of emergency extended for an additional few months." Add in a few extra details to that and you have the entire article summarized in a paragraph. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 16:57, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

- Can you respond to my comment by sharing why you chose that particular list as a merge target? To me the difficult of choosing which list to merge this or any specific terrorist attack to is a fundamental argument against merging. It makes specific incidents so much harder to find that if we keep the article and link it from all of the relevant lists/articles.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:00, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep Would possibly be inclined to agree with nominator when this first broke, but details that have now come out, especially regarding the unusual perpetrator makes it noteworthy in my opinion. Also 900 people locked in for hours followed by the French President launching a new counter-terrorism task force are lasting effects. User2534 (talk) 06:23, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Note that jihadist is recovering in hospital and has been charged with attempted murder, so there will and be a trial and ensuing coverage.E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:08, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep There is too much international coverage, there should be a WP:OBVIOUSTERRORISTATTACK to ban the standard drill dozens of editors immediately trying to whitewash every terrorist attack, and every terrorist style crime where the motive is "unclear" as per WP:NOTNEWS or not WP:NOTABLE even when it is front page news for a month. If these seemingly random attacks are coordinated, then we can expect coordinated active measures in media to downplay or spread disinformation or otherwise censor coverage of such events. In the case of the D.C. sniper attacks and Ali Muhammad Brown luring and killing of two gay men in Seattle and a student motorist in New Jersey, even seeming random and not notable crimes which are unexplained should be treated as suspected terrorist attacks as long as they receive verifiable local coverage. Wikipedia can be a useful resource for researchers seeking to connect seemingly unconnected events even when authorities cannot. As it is, Wikipedia is woefully useless compared to Heavy and Everipedia which have no such high barrier to covering any event with substantial news coverage or even minimal coverage in blogs with a conservative or tabloid agenda which are often the only reliable media for attacks which are not covered by "reliable" sources. There are hundreds of unexplained crimes and accidents where the motive or criminal aspects are unproven or a credible possibility. Hammer and ax attacks like this deserve attention when they are done at landmarks that are strategic to terrorists and when they leave evidence to authorities that they are inspired by terrorist movements like ISIS. There should be no difference in coverage just because one is proven to be inspired or directed by terrorists, or may have been staged to look like road rage, breakup rage, rage over workplace firing, intoxication or mental illness, when the only difference is motive.

- Even as you were asserting that coverage is "over," a columnist for an American big city daily, the Sun-Sentinel, was complaining vociferously that the press has spent too much time covering this story, "During the day, CNN led the story with big, important-looking "Breaking News" graphics. That night, the incident in Paris led the evening news all over the country. Newspapers worldwide were all over the story."[31]. He is outraged that "a possible terrorist with a hammer thousands of miles away gets more public attention than a mass murder in Orlando."E.M.Gregory (talk) 01:17, 11 June 2017 (UTC) Coverage on such an intense and massive scale would probably establish notability even if coverage now ended.E.M.Gregory (talk) 11:19, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

- An impact cleverly fabricated/suggested in the article, which doesn't note that the "new counter-terrorism task force" was ordered a month ago; that it was announced the day after this one mad person's attack is coincidence. E.M. Gregory, can you please use phrases like "intense and massive scale" a bit more judiciously? It sounds like the claims made in presidential tweets. Drmies (talk) 14:11, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- Coverage of this attack in the U.S. was on an "intense and massive scale" on Tuesday and Wednesday last. Truly, led the news at the top of the hour, front page photos. Regional newspapers and broadcast media running interviews with locals who were in or near the Cathedral. I won't speculate as to why. But the coverage for about 36 hours was massive and intensive.E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:10, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- I did not fabricate, please rescind your slander. What I wrote was that Macron "announced the creation of a new intelligence task force..." This is accurate. Anyone following events, or reading the links will understand the a reform was contemplated and that Macron either moved it forward or made the final decision to announce what a plan that had been proposed but not decided upon in the wake of this event. That is, it was unclear whether the Notre Dame attack caused Macron to finalize his decision or to move an already firm decision forward. Because this was unclear, I worded it very carefully. But do Note that a plan is only a plan until it is formally announced.E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:03, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

List of programs broadcast by an individual independent television station. While lists of this type are permitted for national networks, I can't find any other evidence in Category:Lists of television series by network of them existing for standalone stations as well. And furthermore, while the station is nominally independent of Canada's national networks, in actual practice it doesn't buy standalone broadcast rights to any programming that's exclusive to it, but just sublicenses a crossnetwork mix of programs from CTV and Global — so it's still basically a dual affiliate of both networks nonetheless, with its only real point of "independence" being that it's not faithful to either network's standard schedule. The end result being that apart from its own local newscast (which doesn't have its own standalone article separate from the "news" section of the station article) and maybe a few syndication strips, pretty much everything listed here is already going to be in either List of programs broadcast by CTV and CTV Two or List of programs broadcast by Global anyway. All of which means there's just no need for this. Bearcat (talk) 17:09, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Weak Delete. There is not much coverage online ABOUT him, although the search for that is complicated by the many, many opinion articles written BY him. That, in itself does not confer notability. However, there is some coverage (1 and 2) of his selection as the chairman of the Lithuanian society of legal professionals. In 2015, he was selected as the 4th most influential legal professional in Lithuania (1), but apart from the mention that did not seem to result in significant coverage. There are also some articles about him becoming the youngest member of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences (1 and 2), however, given that the two articles are verbatim copies of each other and not attributed it's almost definitely a press release and thus can not be used to establish notability. Unless something else surfaces, it's not enough to pass WP:GNG. No longer a penguin (talk)

The result was redirect to The Legend of Zelda. We have a Redirect and selective Merge, a Redirect and a Delete. That indicates that there is a consensus against a stand alone article. Beyond that none of the arguments really trump one another in terms of how to get rid of it, so I am going to make a judgement call here and go with the middle course.

- Redirect. This is cool, but... where are the references? Like EMG above, I cannot find any. As such, this fails WP:GNG and sadly, does not deserve an independent early. Strange, though, that a geeky topic like this didn't generate any coverage, you'd think Kotaku etc. would be all over it. I found some coverage of an audiotrack with a similar name ([34]), but I think that's what we are discussing here. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:49, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. The article is about a fan film, not the phrase "hero of time", which is used in other capacities in the series. The question is whether this phrase is worth redirecting (and covering) in the main article, and based on the above sourcing (+ this source), no, it is not worth mentioning or redirecting. (Further, a redirect would be inappropriate if the fan film was not mentioned in the article, which it is not and should not.) Choosing whether to redirect Hero of time there is a different, but more apt consideration based on the other sources found above. czar 05:09, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

- Anyone have access to the Plain Dealer archive? I was able to access only a snippet of the Plain Deal obit. It would be good to see the coverage of the battle with the union that drove him form Cleveland. He ran a large printing company; one of the things the company did was to print magazines. To promote it, he had his own, the William Feather Magazine running stories of interest to businessmen. Perhaps as a spin off to this, he was syndicated in some form so that little bits of wisdom from his pen appeared in newspapers in cities nationwide. And some of his bits of wisdom appear in recent book that collect notable bits of wisdom (just scroll through a few pages of a gBooks search on his name. Also, since he owned the printing plant, he published his own books, but they must have drawn attention since in 1927 one got reviewed in the New York Times and Detroit Free Press, [probably in other papers too. He also wrote for some of the serious national magazines of the day, and was quoted in the early thirties by journalists trying to figure out what was happening to the economy, His ideas on the topic were taken seriously. And he did survive the depression with a big company intact. Hope other editors with access to other archives will add some sources. E.M.Gregory (talk) 02:24, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep I agree with the presentism caveat. Old school figures do not always have a prominent digital footprint, making the process of finding sources especially challenging.

- Keep per E.M.Gregory's efforts. Some Googling reveals that Case Western's Encyclopedia of Cleveland History states that Feather's writings earned him a "national reputation" [36]; that H. L. Mencken used some of Feather's work to illustrate a point in The American Language [37]; and that gBooks produces a citation of Feather as the source of a hoary adage in The Concise Columbia Dictionary of Quotations [38]. One might be able to minimize each of these, if analyzed separately and with a skeptical eye, but taken as a group they suggest he was a significant writer worthy of encyclopedic attention. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:27, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

Consider yourselves- if not encouraged- at least alerted." - Kirkus Reviews and "is a treasure chest of plain talks, homilies and wise thinking. Feather has a deft touch." - The Forum, a little more and we could have a separate article on this book (i wonder if it contains some of his quotable quotes that seem to pop up from "One of the funny things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells and both think they are astute." to "All the books extolling the simple life are written by men.", not to mention those at wikiquote ("but coola you just did":))), also Erika Andersen referred to Feather ("It seems to me that most people hold one of two opposing definitions of business: they either agree with Feather (and me) that business ...") in this article.

Despite a wealth of references, I can see none that convey notability or get even close to satisfying WP:MUSIC. Many listings and track listings, several nominations for awards but no evidence of a record in the country's charts etc. Several daughter articles have been spawned off the back of this article including separate articles on discography and individual albums, none of which, I suspect, are notable.

- Keep for now, pending a refutation of my reasoning. - They have been nominated twice for the South African Music Awards. Musical notability guidelines provide that nomination for a major award is a qualifying criterion. So it really comes down to whether the South African Music Awards are of the same standing as the American Grammy Awards. The Delete argument would appear to turn on saying that national awards only count depending on the size of the country (and South Africa is a medium-sized country, not a small country). I am ready for an argument that South African nominations don't count, but for now I am inclined to read the notability guideline literally.
- Comment - If this article is deleted, the daughter articles can mostly go A9. If this article is kept, we can have a merge/keep debate on each, and I think some should be merged and some kept. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:39, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment - By the way, I am beginning to think that I am a deletionist, but, if so, I am a deletionist who nonetheless favors "strict construction" of specific notability guidelines. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:41, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment response - Robert McClenon- I did look at South African Music Awards to see whether that helps in clarifying the applicability of our policies - it doesn't. I tried the web-site which left me with the strong impression that anybody in South Africa can be nominated, including self-nominated, for an award. There is then some verification and initial adjudication process which produces a list of "Nominees". If included on that short list of nominees, I would expect to see a status of "Nominee" in the article table and not "Nominated". If this is the correct interpretation, then no notability can attend upon the status "nominated" although the winner of an award might well be considered notable as per the BAFTAs. Grammy etc. Velella Velella Talk 19:03, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep (please note that I created this page, but have no affiliation with the company). The company has in excess of 170K of the devices in the United States, the devices are just sold in a non-traditional model. In regards to the comment by HighKing, most of the citations are from respectable news organizations, and I will fix the couple of instances where press releases have been cited today. Also, the article is about the company, in addition to their table ordering tablets, not just the devices themself. Daylen (talk) 22:28, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep I too am not affiliated with the company but the sources speak for themselves: The New York Times, The Washington Post, CBS, etc. I see only PDF's as possible PR, but the rest is reliable. Don't understand why it was nominated in the first place?--Biografer (talk) 20:54, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Biografer Take a look at the WP:ORGIND and WP:CORPDEPTH guidelines. It's not just that the sources must be "independent" (and nobody is saying that somehow there's a connection between the some publications and Ziosk) but they must be "intellectually independent" and these ones are not. For example, the Forbes article (ignoring for now that it is in their "sites"/"blogs" section and therefore fails the criteria for establishing notability) is a classic advertorial and we see this from Forbes (here at AfD) all the time - it is a common "customer success story" dressed up as an ad and that "article" has been reprinted and republished in other publications (again, classic advertorial behaviour). The purported "independent" article includes customer interviews, photos, complete "look how easy it is to use" descriptions, mild put-downs of "other payment systems" and why Ziosk is better, the financial reasons for restaurants to chose Ziosk, quotes from company officers. Hard to see what they've left out barring a download link for a brochure. The NYT article has one small paragraph where they mention Ziosk in passing with a quote from a company officer - it is not in-depth coverage and Ziosk is not the topic of the article. The latimes article is regurgitating a PR announcement from Olive Garden - fails WP:ORGIND and is not independent. The nrn.com article is from an announcement made by Red Robin. The announcement was made as the Greenwood Village, Colo.-based casual-dining operator reported a 3.6-percent increase in same-store sales for its fourth quarter ended Dec. 29, including a 1.2-percent increase in traffic. The Washington Post article is an advertorial complete with quotations from exec at Chili's and Ziosk. Bloomberg articles are usually advertorials and this one is no exception - even uses the "5 ways Ziosk is great for your business" style of formatting. The Sacramento Bee article fails WP:CORPDEPTH as it only mentions Ziosk in passing and also because the article relies on the opinion of a "Tom Caporaso, CEO of Clarus Commerce" who cannot be regarded as a reliable source. The CBS Sacramento article meets the criteria for establishing notability. Finally, the eater.com article is a repeat/summary of the CBS article so is not a new independent source. So in my opinion, only one good source that meets the criteria for establishing notability out of eleven. That isn't enough. Hopefully now you've a better understanding of the reasons why the article was nominated in the first place. -- HighKing++ 15:03, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

I am not sure if this particular one deserves an article, but honestly I couldn't find much about potential competitors.

Nevertheless. From what I can see, none the sources Randor5602 added meet the criteria for establishing notability. You added the WSJ article but it is a blog, so fails as blogs are not acceptable sources for establishing notability. The Fox Business source is an interview and therefore not independent of the subject since there's nothing to indication that the "facts" were independently verified and not just repeated. The gigaom article suffers the same way. Then you've put in a section on E la Carte and referenced a bunch of articles that are actually about the company but where Rajat might be mentioned or provide a quote. These articles are not intellectually independent, notability is not inherited, they're not in-depth and therefore fail the criteria for establishing notability (the techcrunch article, the mashable article, the thefamuanonline article, usatoday article, bizjournals article, and fastcompany article). Then you've done the same thing for a previous business of Rajat's called Zimride by adding in references to articles that are about zimride and not about Rajat. -- HighKing++ 15:44, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Wikipedia guidelines state that anyone may !vote , so unfair to discriminate based on this and not on the merits of the facts. The WSJ article helps to establish the subject as notable within the business world - it is not a personal blog, but an essay published in a well-known mainstream business paper on how to perform as a new business leader, which shows industry influence, a criterion for notability. The other new articles that were added do establish diverse valid secondary sources that clearly independently verified facts before writing the article, including Fast Company, GigaOm and others. These are manifestly not press releases and are written by specialized journalists in the field.

- Keep, Don't redirect or merge- Was an assasination that made worldwide headine news, and not just for a few days after the incident. Other famous bloggers who faced assasination and attempted assasination knew him, he knew Avijit Roy. After his murder Asif Mohiuddin, another notable blogger who survived a machete attack spoke of him, and he knew him.(http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-32701207) International media coverage continued long after the incident (March 2015), as shown here. The original article was deleted in 2015 on the grounds of lacking news coverage after the incident, but after it was deleted there was more, rendering such reason invalid. The article also exists on Zaza, German, Simple English, and Turkish language wikipedias. Consensus on the previous deletion was in no way unanimous, and the topic has come up again and in the news after the deletion. On the original deletion many argued for it to be kept. He many not have been in international worldwide news before the incident, but had presence in Bengali language media.

- Comment The first article on the topic, Washiqur Rahman Babu, was merged and redirected to Attacks on atheists in Bangladesh in April 2015 after a deletion discussion. When PlanespotterA320 created this new article on the topic in May 2017, I redirected it because [this version] did not improve upon [the redirected version] with respect to the reasons the topic was redirected.
- You can read the previous discussion and closing comments yourself. PlanespotterA320's reading seems to be that the original problem was a lack of news coverage after the incident. Although that concern was raised during the discussion, my own reading is that the major problem was that Rahman was a low profile individual notable only for one event. Quite an alphabet soup of policies and guidelines were cited in arguments:
- What Wikipedia is Not: WP:NOTMEMORIAL, WP:NOTNEWS, WP:INDISCRIMINATE
- Biographies of Living People (and low-profile individuals): WP:BLP1E
- Notability: WP:N, WP:NEVENT, WP:ANYBIO, WP:VICTIM, WP:BIO1E

- Redirect per previous AFD - particularly as we have Attacks on atheists in Bangladesh. We're still looking at, essentially, BIO1E as the problem. I note that this almost qualifies for CSD G4 since it is effectively recreation of previously deleted content? --MASEM (t) 16:17, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep NYT, BBC, CNN coverage of blogger hacked to death for reasons beyond petty crime. The attempt, again, to delete this is a damnatio memoriae that is hard to take in good faith. μηδείς (talk) 03:11, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- No one has suggested here that victim Washiqur Rahman be deleted, or is suggesting that he should not be remembered. His death is given three paragraphs in Attacks by Islamic extremists in Bangladesh, and there are at least four redirects to take searchers there from variations of his name. However, reliable sources cover him only in connection with his murder. And they cover his murder in the broader context of other attacks on bloggers in Bangladesh. WP:BIO1E cautions against creating pseudo-biographies, the description of which goes on to say:
- "An article under the title of a person's name should substantially be a full and balanced biography of that person's public life. If the person is notable only in connection with a single event, and little or no other information is available to use in the writing of a balanced biography, that person should be covered in an article regarding the event, with the person's name as a redirect to the event article placing the information in context."

- Redirect to Attacks on atheists in Bangladesh. I stand by what I said when I closed the previous RFD, which is neatly summed up policy-wise by Worldbruce above. Philg88 ♦talk 05:17, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Redirect, per nom, per all above and per my comments on last AfD. Nothing changed about Rahman since the article was first was AfD'ed, now more strongly suggesting WP:1E. No merge attempt is necessary as the subject is sufficiently covered in target article Attacks by Islamic extremists in Bangladesh. --nafSadh did say 18:27, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Fix the merger. The article contains quite different information than is available at the redirect target, Attacks by Islamic extremists in Bangladesh. Until that situation is corrected, Washiqur Rahman should not be deleted. Briefly: this proposal is premature, and as stated above, has the character of a damnatio memoriae.

Unsourced since the beginning of Wikipedia time. Voice artists do work, this is true, but it is not all that common for them to pass the GNG.

- Delete. I thought maybe nom was hyperbolizing with "since the beginning of Wikipedia time", but it turns out the article really was first created in 2003. As always, voice actors do not get an automatic free pass over WP:NACTOR just because some (or a lot of) roles can be listed — they get over NACTOR when they're the subject of sufficient reliable source coverage about their work in those roles. But fourteen years to infinity later, there's still not a single source being shown here besides the fact that she has an IMDb profile — which, as always, is not an automatic Wikipedia inclusion freebie either: IMDb is user-generated, so it can and does contain uncaught errors, and inclusion on there is a WP:ROUTINE distinction that every working actor in existence gets the moment they have one role to list. So no, nothing stated or sourced here is enough. Bearcat (talk) 17:35, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

His appearance(s?) in NCAA Div 1 tournaments do not meet the guidelines for team participation either, which only cover Davis Cup participants (and likely Hopman Cup, although I don't think an otherwise non-notable player has ever participated there). Whether or not NCAA participation and coverage combined with minor (but GNG-failing) participation in Challenger events could combine for notability may be up for debate in the future, but as it stands right now Blumberg doesn't even come close to meeting any of the notability guidelines.

The result was delete. Right now there's a pretty clear consensus to delete, and that's how I'll close this. There is no doubt that from an original attack/SYNTH page this has been greatly improved (thanks to NewsandEventsGuy and E.M.Gregory), but "essentially POV" wasn't the only argument brought up to delete. I cannot redirect this since there are too many options provided, even if a number of editors agree on one of them ("Protests against Donald Trump"), because E.M.Gregory makes a good argument for "Anti-Trump movement". If there is content in the current article that editors feel should be recovered to merge into another article, we can do that later--if there's agreement on it.

- The cited sources for this do not mention "Trump resistance". Sagecandor (talk) 13:05, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Another example: Social justice warriors (SJW’s), enabled by the academy and coddled by Hillary Clinton, who were fueled by a mix of intolerance and entitlement, began to consider what they’ll do next. (Sourced to the New York Post). -- Really ??? Sagecandor (talk) 13:07, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Weak KeepUnsure about this, yes there appears to be a "trump Resistance, and as we have a pages on a similar (according to at least one source) groups (like the tea party) I see no reason not to have this one. but yes it is also heavy reliant on Synthases.

- Keep but refocus? My first thought was in alignment with nom, this feels like an attack page and filled with OR, and I still think it does meet the last. However, there have been a lot of criticism of Trump of various forms and I am surprised we don't have an article on Criticism of Donald Trump's Presidency, which would be a valid topic (when careful NPOV adherence is used) and would help group all the various efforts between pre-election and post-election aspects. This article could be used as that basis but it would absolutely need refocusing to be a proper "Criticism of..." article to avoid issue with NPOV. It should heavily rely on existing articles when the do exist, eg touching on Stop Trump movement, or the appropriate Protests against Donald Trump. I do not think there is, without engaging in OR, a true "resistance" here in as there being one singular group, but there definitely are numerous criticisms towards Trump that is reflected here. Barring that, I would otherwise agree that maybe WP:TNT could apply and would alternatively !vote delete for this in favor of a better article start. --MASEM (t) 13:40, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Weak keep. There are a lot of sources out there that discuss the "Trump resistance" (and/or the "anti-Trump resistance" or the "anti-Trump movement"); this particular phrasing is common enough to be at least defensible as the article title. Regardless of anyone's individual views on the politics of it all, there's clearly a notable political concept there. On the other hand, this is a weak keep because the current state of the article here just makes it really, really hard to say nice things about. I'm not sure it's quite to the TNT point of no return, but I can empathize with those who do. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 14:36, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Keeping an article requires not only that there are possible sources, which there clearly are for the phrase, but also that those sources are used to support text that meets the core content policies. There is no text here that does. Core content overrides notability and is not optional. This egregious violation of those standards needs to be deleted and a new article can be created in its place.

- Comment I think that we need to reboot this discussion in the light of the response to yesterday's shooting. Naomi Klein: Any Efforts to Equate Hateful Violence with Trump Resistance Are Lies [52] for the defense and Ann Coulter The ‘Resistance’ Goes Live-Fire for the prosecution.[53]. It might have been possible to dismiss this movement two days ago, but the fact that the shooter was a backer of the "resistance" puts it firmly in the notable category, and none of the other articles we have is about this self-described anti-Trump "resistance" as a movement.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:11, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- User:E.M.Gregory, I disagree for two reasons. First, it would be inaccurate and offensive for Wikipedia to suggest that the shooter represents the views of this "resistance" which almost entirely rejects violence. Second, we already have lots of articles to which this can properly redirect, including Donald Trump protests and Efforts to impeach Donald Trump. The shooter undoubtedly supported both of those, and this could be briefly mentioned in both as an extreme example. Plus we can give the shooting its very own article, 2017 Congressional baseball shooting. No need to do more than that, IMHO. Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:04, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- A.) I suggested only that the coverage of the shooter increases the notability of the topic, not that we should add it to the page. and B.) there is a resistance movement; it is more than a series of protests and it is not co-terminus with the list of Efforts to impeach.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:44, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

- Comment Here's a gNews search by date [54] showing that, argue as we may, the term/concept is in regular use. Note however that "resistance" and "Anti-Trump resistance" appears to be more in use the further left you look. I propose that, after this AfD closes, we move the article to Anti-Trump movement (a title that currently directs to [[Anti-Trump protests) to signify that this is a broad "movement" unified by its opposition to a single man/administration. We have articles on many of the participating groups. As I see it, the article needs work, but the notability and felt need in the press and in the general conversation for a way to discuss the broad anti-Trump movement - not merely the street protests - is clear.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:04, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep It clearly meets the WP:NCRIC criteria so should be kept. We currently don't have sources to pass WP:GNG but it is rule of thumb to find someone who passes WP:GNG or not. Resources are always not online they could be found in local newspapers and cricket books, magazines. Greenbörg (talk) 13:00, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- Speedy keep Point 3 of WP:CRIN (and of its WP:NCRIC summary) clearly states that anyone who has appeared as a player or umpire in at least one World Cricket League match of Division Six status or above is a notable player. This has been agreed by WP:CRIC per WP:CONSENSUS. As Greenbörg| rightly says, we do not have to justify GNG for anyone who meets NSPORTS following consensus at the village pump forum. WP:NSPORTS was not amended after that discussion and still rules that The article must provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline (GNG) or the sport specific criteria (SSC) set forth below. WP:NCRIC is a long-accepted part of the SSC and the operative word in the ruling is or. Jack | talk page 13:16, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Meets WP:NCRIC. Nomination is wrong. Johnlp (talk) 13:46, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- Further comments. In fact, the nomination is disruptive. The village pump policy proposal was Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#The criteria of WP:NSPORT here are too inclusive, discussed last month, and the the RfC said not to nominate articles for deletion indiscriminately. There have been several of these indiscriminate nominations since the RfC and they have all been rejected. Jack | talk page 13:53, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- Speedy keep Passes WP:NCRIC and per the RfC noted above. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:25, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- Speedy keep - can we please continue to make this point clear somewhere, so that this stops happening? "..it meets either the general notability guideline below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline listed in the box on the right". Defending every single cricket biography in an NPOV context is becoming boring. The fact that we haven't had to amend the cricket criteria on NSPORTS is testament to the fact that "it just works".
- Blue Square Thing, I consider you a good friend, but to claim you "don't like the way" something is done or said without wishing to make any further comment, such as how to fix it to your liking, is counterproductive to any possible debate. Bobo. 17:29, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment I may have missed something but in the discussion about NSPORTS at the village pump I read: "There is clear consensus that no subject-specific notability guideline, including Notability (sports) is a replacement for or supercedes the General Notability Guideline. Arguments must be more refined than simply citing compliance with a subguideline of WP:NSPORTS in the context of an Articles for Deletion discussion. There is a general unhappiness with the permissiveness of some NSPORTS criteria, but no consensus in this discussion on any specific changes to any of them."
- I may have missed something but for me that means that a deletion discussion should be based on GNG rather than subject specific criteria. Domdeparis (talk) 18:05, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- No, because there was no consensus to change anything in NSPORTS and that includes the ruling at the top which asserts that The article must provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline (GNG) or the sport specific criteria (SSC) set forth below. It is "either...or..." not one at the expense of the other. Furthermore, the RfC ends by saying: "As with the RfC on secondary school notability, this should not be an invitation to flood AfD with indiscriminate or excessive nominations". In other words, abide by both GNG and NSPORTS; so the only type of sportsperson who should be denied is one who fails both criteria. You started out by thinking that Rohan fails NCRIC, but he doesn't. Jack | talk page 19:13, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- but in the next paragraph of no ports it says "All information included in Wikipedia, including articles about sports, must be verifiable. In addition, standalone articles are required to meet the General Notability Guideline. The guideline on this page provides bright-line guidance to enable editors to determine quickly if a subject is likely to meet the General Notability Guideline." It can't be clearer than that I think.Domdeparis (talk) 03:28, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
- Have you read the FAQs on NSPORT ? The first one is very clear about the relationship between GNG and topic specific criteria. GNG trumps it every time. Domdeparis (talk) 03:38, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
- An FAQ does not equate to an in-bold-top-of-main-page-ruling. If the FAQ contradicts the main page, then the FAQ needs to be revised. I'll take a look at it, however. Jack | talk page 08:48, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
- Okay, I've looked at the FAQ, for what it's worth. You have referred to #1 only which says: "(The topic-specific notability guidelines) are intended only to stop an article from being quickly deleted when there is very strong reason to believe that significant, independent, non-routine, non-promotional secondary coverage from reliable sources are available, given sufficient time to locate them". Two points about Rohan. First, I have already found two reliable sources (both added to the article yesterday) which meet this requirement. Second, Rohan met the requirements of CRIN only a few days before this AfD was raised and, as there is no apparent reason why his career should not continue, further sources will certainly exist in due course and the statement stipulates that sufficient time must be allowed to locate them. As for "what is sufficient time", please see FAQ #4 which says, inter alia: "There is no fixed rule, as it may differ in each specific case..... given a reasonable expectation that sources can be found..... allowing for adequate time, particularly for cases where English language sources are difficult to find". As Rohan is Singaporean, he is unlikely to receive coverage in British publications other than Wisden and the online sources already cited. He may well be mentioned in next year's Wisden re the matches he played in May so, assuming it a Wisden citation should be necessary (it isn't, because of the other two), you would have to wait until next April when the 2018 edition is published, which means ten months would be "sufficient time" to locate that citation.

- Delete GNG not met. The articles about the Guinness World Records they've set don't count as "significant coverage" as they aren't actually about the company. The rest is just routine stuff - a company doing what it's supposed to be doing. Exemplo347 (talk) 11:08, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - I think there are plenty of examples of in-depth coverage here, including The Telegraph, Newsweek, and Fox News. I actually came across them when I read about their penalty, and found a bunch of other stuff. I'm not sure I agree about the Guinness Records being worth nothing, I found those articles outside the base region of the company, which is why I thought I would take a crack at it. Most of the stuff online is written by the company but I tried to be careful to avoid any primary sources where possible. I will see if I can find any more references to help support a claim of GNG.

The filed complaint by Michael Jackson's estate over the kingofpop.com domain is probably more notable but Comments on sources below:
- New Hampshire Union Leader article is an advertorial complete with history/problem/photos/quotes/financial info and projections. Fails WP:ORGIND.
- This mixergy article is labelled a "case study" but in actuality, is a video advertisement. Fails WP:ORGIND.
- Another New Hampshire Union Leader article that solicits reactions from local business owners about the impact of a "harsh winter". It is an inconsequential interview and quote an the article fails WP:CORPDEPTH
- inc.com article fails WP:ORGIND as it is a transcript of an interview.
- NH Business Review article fails WP:CORPDEPTH as it is a top 500 list which includes the company name
- thenation.com article fails WP:CORPDEPTH as it is a mention in passing in relation to moving down and up Google's search results.
- Google Books result fails as it is simply referencing the inclusion in inc.com's top 500
- Another NHUL article (advertorial) that fails WP:ORGIND
- Yet another NHUL article that mentions in passing that "work is nearing completion at a new 120,000 square foot building in Exeter for GourmetGiftBaskets.com ..." Fails WP:CORPDEPTH.
- And another NHUL article that mentions the company in passing from Executive Council minutes with "Authorized the Community Development Finance Authority to award the town of Exeter $499,000 in federal Community Development Block Grant money to assist GourmetGiftBaskets.com with purchasing equipment at its new facility on Epping Road in Exeter." Fails WP:CORPDEPTH
- This article fails WP:CORPDEPTH as it is a routine business announcement and fails WP:ORGIND as it is a Press Release written by the company.
- This law360 article and this foxnews article reports the Michael Jackson estate suing KingOfPop.com (owned by the GGB) because the name is too similar with MJ moniker. Fails WP:ILLCON
- latinpost.com article includes GGB products as a suggestion for a holiday gift basket. It is not in-depth coverage and mostly copies product descriptions from their website. Not in-depth coverage.
- reviewjournal.com article fails WP:CORPDEPTH as it merely mentions the company in passing.
- This Christian Science Monitor article fails WP:CORPDEPTH and [[WP:ORGIND] as the article includes 3 sentences which are quotes from a company officer
- This miaminewtimes article fails WP:CORPDEPTH as it merely discusses some of the products on sale.
- this thedailymeal article fails as the article is not independent (says at the end that "coverage made possible by participating in a sponsored tasting")
- This telegraph article is the Guinness Record giant cupcake. In my opinion, it is a corporate advert and fails WP:CORPDEPTH. These types of articles fail the criteria for establishing notability. The article is really about the cupcake, not the company.
- This newsweek article fails for the same reason. Another corporate advert, this time for the Largest Iced Coffee.
- Finally, I could not get access to p.11 of the book weird-o-pedia so no comment on that one. Of the above sources, other editors may be of the opinion that the Guinness records and the Michael Jackson lawsuit meet the criteria for establishing notability but until I see a rational argument, I am of the opinion that there isn't enough in those articles to support a Keep !vote. -- HighKing++ 13:56, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

A list for a particular cricket grounds is over-specialization. I see we have others. I don't thing they make any sense either. A list by team, that would make much more sense DGG ( talk ) 08:36, 6 June 2017 (UTC) DGG ( talk ) 08:36, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Your point is wrong. Citing the main international stats for a particular cricket ground is very precious. If you think it is no point, so according to your view, citing centuries for cricketers is also not worth. So delete all the centuries cited in each players' article. Providing centuries of each venue is worth just like a player scores a century to his career. Also, it is about international matches and international centuries. I don't think any bad about the articles. So keep them and edit in future. Gihan Jayaweera (talk) 02:21, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Weak Keep. Cricket statistics for particular grounds ("fastest century at X", "lowest score by Y at Z") are kept in the same way as they are for teams, due I presume to historical quirks in the different grounds, which would argue for notability to me.

- Tend towards delete on the grounds of WP:NOTMIRROR, because I don't believe that a list of every century scored in international cricket is notable in an encyclopaedia, and because, in general, the content could be more usefully summarised at the article about the ground. Summarised rather than copied. Unlike the article creator I don't believe, either, that it is always appropriate to add tables of centuries etc... to articles about players - I would much rather see sensible prose summaries in the majority of cases. I could be convinced otherwise if someone can show definitive notability of a list of all scores of greater than 100 (and, by extension, five wicket hauls etc...).

"Kobol, inspired by X mythology, has been used as a plot device of the Y form, and inspired A and B."

- Keep "Battlestar Gallactica" and Mormon Theology (snippet view only), Research Note: Rejecting Monotheism? Polytheism, Pluralism, and Battlestar Galactica (again, no full text) both appear to discuss Kobol in terms of LDS mythology appropriated for BSG. Jclemens (talk) 04:42, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- Neither of those even mentions the word Kobol in the available 'snippets'. Please quote at least a sentence showing non-plot discussion of the subject. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:32, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
- @Jclemens: Update. I was able to access both sources through my university. In the 1st one, Kobol is discussed on second page of this 5-page article in two sentences. First one is a citation from the Mormon scripture on Kolob, second one states that "It appears that both the Lords of Kobol and Kolob have ordained the same governing structure for mankind." That's pretty much is it. So this is just a mention in passing, no in-depth treatment here. In the 2nd one, we get several sentences on the 1st page, no coverage besides that. The sentences read: "Thehumans had a pantheon of deities, the Lords of Kobol, which seemed to matchelements of Mormon theology and suggest the plurality of God", "He has, however, developed the mythology of the Lords of Kobol into apolytheistic system drawn primarily from Greco-Roman mythology. ", and finally "hese deities, like the ancient Greek and Roman pantheons,are related through various social and/or kinship structures and reside (orresided) together in one realm—Kobol. (It is unclear in the series where theGods currently reside, as Kobol, a planet, was discovered by the humancolonists in ruins.) " I don't think those three sentences show notability of Kobol. But I can certainly see how an entire paragraph if not more in the BG article could discuss the religion/mythology of the series, as inspired by Mormon/etc. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:35, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for finding those. No, those aren't bare mentions. If I wanted bare mentions, there area a bazillion of them in episode reviews for Kobol's Last Gleaming. While I wish each were longer, they do seem to substantially say exactly what I inferred from the snippet views. My Keep opinion stands, although if we're going to make a consolidated 'mythology of BSG' article, I would support an appropriate (i.e., non-AfD) merge discussion. Jclemens (talk) 06:41, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- Sigh. First, the entire real world impact of Kobol in BSG can be summed up in 1-2 sentences (it has been inspired by Mormon religion/mythology). That's it. There's nothing more. This doesn't need a dedicated article. All the unreferenced, in-universe fancruft here is good for is for WP:TNTing. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:16, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

- @Jclemens: Update. I was able to access both sources through my university. In the 1st one, Kobol is discussed on second page of this 5-page article in two sentences. First one is a citation from the Mormon scripture on Kolob, second one states that "It appears that both the Lords of Kobol and Kolob have ordained the same governing structure for mankind." That's pretty much is it. So this is just a mention in passing, no in-depth treatment here. In the 2nd one, we get several sentences on the 1st page, no coverage besides that. The sentences read: "Thehumans had a pantheon of deities, the Lords of Kobol, which seemed to matchelements of Mormon theology and suggest the plurality of God", "He has, however, developed the mythology of the Lords of Kobol into apolytheistic system drawn primarily from Greco-Roman mythology. ", and finally "hese deities, like the ancient Greek and Roman pantheons,are related through various social and/or kinship structures and reside (orresided) together in one realm—Kobol. (It is unclear in the series where theGods currently reside, as Kobol, a planet, was discovered by the humancolonists in ruins.) " I don't think those three sentences show notability of Kobol. But I can certainly see how an entire paragraph if not more in the BG article could discuss the religion/mythology of the series, as inspired by Mormon/etc. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:35, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

There's no indication why these lakes are notable, and they certainly aren't notable due to their size. According to lakes of Sweden, there are "over 97,500 lakes larger than 2 acres (8,100 m2)". According to the article, this lake has an area 0.0321 km2 (32.1 m2), over two orders of magnitude smaller than the largest hundred thousand lakes. There'd have to be another compelling argument for its significance, and I'm simply not seeing it. -- Tavix (talk) 15:04, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

- Delete - we love Sweden, but if every "LittleTarn" (my translation) is to have an article, we might as well found a TarnsWiki or an InsigGeoFeaturesWiki for true devotees. No, being a minor geographical feature does not of itself guarantee notability. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:55, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - per WP:GEO. The other above seems to use a WHOCARES rationale. But that is not relevant. This article definitley needs references and any kind of expansion but it is part of the Geography section of Wikipedia. A lake or a geographic place is not notable or not notable, it is geography. And the admin or user that closes this AfD should consider that even if Delete is in majority here. A article in SvWik exists so that is also an indicator that this place is just not "another spot in Sweden". BabbaQ (talk) 21:50, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- I assume you mean WP:NGEO or perhaps WP:GEOLAND, not the Geographical coordinates Wikiproject. Even in that case, the statement you are apparently trying to make that geographical places are exempt from notability is not backed up by that guideline:
...geographical features meeting Wikipedia's General notability guideline (GNG) are presumed, but not guaranteed, to be notable.
Emphasis in original. The challenge to notability has been stated; there need to be sources presented that establish notability and not mere existence. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 22:05, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- I assume you mean WP:NGEO or perhaps WP:GEOLAND, not the Geographical coordinates Wikiproject. Even in that case, the statement you are apparently trying to make that geographical places are exempt from notability is not backed up by that guideline:
- Keep. The ordinary (and, I think, legal) meaning of presumed is that something will be treated that way unless there is evidence to show the contrary. This allows for the possibility that a truly thorough search would find no evidence -- this would include print as well as online sources in relevant languages. There is no assertion that such as search was done. DGG ( talk ) 06:12, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- "Truly" is a weasel word within the meaning of the act, does it include a trawl of forgotten mediaeval manuscripts in minor Danish monasteries or whatever. However, a careful and thorough google search, with knowledge of Swedish, fails to find anything usable. This is a very minor geographic feature. If you are in sophistical mood, recall that a headland, bay, or creek on that minor tarn is also a feature. Include each of them as separate articles - that way madness lies. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:41, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- DGG also got it the wrong way around. It's not that geographical features are presumed to meet WP:GNG. It's that when a feature meets WP:GNG, it's presumed to be notable. This tarn doesn't meet WP:GNG as far as I can see. Sjö (talk) 17:12, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

- Merge and redirect: unfortunately, the subject does not seem notable enough for a stand-alone article.

WP:BLP of an editor and publisher, referenced solely to his publishing company's own primary source website about itself with no evidence of reliable source coverage in media shown at all. This has been flagged for notability since 2011, and has existed since 2005, without ever having a single valid source added at all — but a publisher needs to be the subject of enough reliable source coverage to clear WP:GNG, and is not entitled to an automatic inclusion freebie just because he exists. Note that first discussion took place in 2005 — and even then, it closed as no consensus because of a 50-50 keep-delete split (which is hilarious, considering how awful our content standards were in 2005.)

Fanclub. There is very little to suggest notability (both for WP:NORG and WP:GNG). Last AfD mentioned press coverage in Dutch, but it seems pretty low-key. Still, I do get some hits like [60] and [61], so it seems borderline. From what I can make of the first article linked, through Google Translate, it seems based on the Wikipedia entry and/or a press release; this is hardly independent reporting or analysis of significance, just repetition of base facts from Wikipedia's article (probably copied from the club website and press releases). That may not be enough to make them encyclopedic. Would be nice to discuss it again, 8 years down the road. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:31, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

The title is a neologism that appeared in one 1994 book; the very few other references all quote that book, and the term has not caught on. The article itself is a compilation of mini-biographies but there is no unifying focus. More detail can be found at Talk:Pansy Craze#Neologism.2C and original research.

- Weak keep. Looking at the usage in books and scholarly works, the term is likely notable, through I couldn't find a proper definition anywhere. The article does seem to have major OR issues, and its narrow definition of the term as related to 1930s seems to contradict the sources I see which seem to talk of a longer time period. I am not sure if WP:TNT deletion would be needed here, of if this can be salvaged, but I do disagree with saying this is a non-notable neologism; this term, indeed likely created by Chauncey, has nonetheless garnered sufficient use to suggest it can likely be properly defined. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:44, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

- Weak keep This is certainly a niche term, but given that it was used historically and represents a specific and identifiable social movement I think this would be better marked for improvement rather than deletion. Relevant information would be lost, or a large amount of specialized info would need to be added to more general articles on the history of homosexuality in America, if it were removed. There's really no need to remove relevant and specific niche articles that meet the criteria for notability. TheGrinningViking (talk) 16:15, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- @TheGrinningViking: I'm not against a 'keep', if that's what's correct here, but can you please elaborate on your "given that it was used historically"—was it really? From what I see, it's one guy in one book, and a few repeats. If by "used historically" you mean, "a few people used it [but it never caught on]" then I guess you're right, it was used historically. But the number of terms that are used a few times and never catch on is limitless, and I question whether they deserve an article, or even a mention. It's a feather in an academic's cap, if they come up with a term that gets picked up on, but if a couple of their friends or colleagues quote them here and there, and then it goes nowhere afterwards, this is not notable enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia, the way I see it. But I may be misunderstanding the criteria for notability, which is why I ask for clarification about what you meant. Mathglot (talk) 06:30, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Article definitely needs some serious clean-up and additional references, but there are sources showing her involvement in the Bulgarian team (eg. IIHF) and other sources may need to be translated from English. While I understand you may be referring to WP:NHOCKEY/LA, the guideline does not include women's ice hockey leagues (eg. the NWHL and CWHL are not mentioned).

- Delete National team players are only notable if they played in a top-level competition, such as the Olympics themselves (not qualification) or the top level at the World Championships (not a lower division). She did neither, so she fails WP:NHOCKEY. That leaves WP:GNG, which she also fails as far as I can tell. I'd be willing to reconsider if someone can provide sources. Smartyllama (talk) 15:12, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Fails GNG, as a frequent editor of international tournaments I wish I could agree with the comments of Boopitydoopityboop, however they are inaccurate. She is not professional, only the NWHL is fully professional and she is no where near that caliber. Even if WP:NHOCKEY does not apply, GNG or WP:WOMEN would. WP:ATHLETE says "The article must provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline or the sport specific criteria set forth below". For an amateur athlete who has neither competed in anything remotely close to a high level, or achieved any kind of distinction, I am at a loss as to how she could fit it "in general". In men's play, an amateur athlete who has played at the highest level is presumed to be notable, I don't understand how a women who plays at the lowest level would have the same standing.18abruce (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Completely unsourced article that is nothing, but overly detailed plot summaries. Nothing proves this Power Ranger character meets WP:GNG, especially since she completely disappeared from the franchise after just 1 1/2 seasons. I am also nominating the following related pages because they are also about Power Ranger character articles that are unsourced, almost all plot, and do not meet our notability guidelines.

- Probable delete It's not really the height that matters, it's the notability. There's lots of articles online and published about tall buildings in London or Doha, to take 2 examples, but not much about Bandung; the article is largely cited to a database of construction projects. Almost none of the buildings have Wikipedia articles, so it couldn't even function as an index/list of notable buildings in Bandung. I realise there may be sources in Indonesian, Sundanese, Javan, or other local languages, and that we need to improve Wikipedia coverage of non-western nations. But it doesn't appear to be a notable topic for a list. I'm happy to be proved wrong with references and citations. Any referenced content could be merged to Bandung, but there's a lot of unreferenced entries. Could redirect either to Bandung or List of tallest buildings in Indonesia (which includes a lot of notable buildings). --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:25, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

- Comment I hate the constant drip, drip, drip of AFDs about individual tall buildings and about lists of tallest buildings. This process of considering, and sometimes deleting, isolated buildings or lists seems guaranteed to ensure uneven coverage in Wikipedia and legitimate frustration on the part of contributors. I particularly hate the deletion of lists, because having lists helps by heading off creation of separate articles about buildings. There needs to be a good RFC or other discussion about the big topic area, towards ensuring consistent editing. --doncram 18:24, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep Bandung's metropolitan area has population over 8 million, bigger than that of most cities in the U.S. and U.K. (where most AFD editors probably hail from). The list has multiple buildings over 100 metres (330 ft) which is a significant threshold. It is pointless and wasteful to delete list-articles like this. The topic of "tallest buildings in ..." is well-established as notable. One could quibble you want to merge this into List of tallest buildings in Indonesia but that is not proposed and that would not be an improvement, as there is enough separate info about Bandung alone. It is clearly better to have a list-article than separate articles about each of the buildings. There is no controversial or contested information in the article, so I do not see any problems with the sourcing, either. Does anyone seriously dispute whether building X is 128 meters tall or whatever? --doncram 18:24, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Selective merge to Bandung - I'm not seeing much, if any, coverage about buildings in Bandung specifically. However a short section on Bandung's article probably wouldn't hurt (as long as it isn't given too much undue weight), and would probably be a better alternative to complete deletion. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:15, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: Gbawden, whats your point? It seems you are suffering from obsessive Deleting disorder! I am creating a page and you are adding in AFD, one by one! Look at the list of tallest buildings in some western cities like List of tallest buildings in Cardiff, then compare how your views justify discriminating cities from other parts of the world. Dont forget Indonesia is the 7th largest ecnomy of the world. Both Bandung and Medan is large metropolis with huge numbers of colonial buildings and high economic activity. They deserve to be included in the list. The list of tallest buildings are not about heritage, its about height! That's why it has the word tallest!
- Bandung is the 2nd most populous city in Indonesia. It has many high rise building already. The city is going through transforming its skyline for last few years. Most of the high rise were built after 2014, as there was height restriction in the city. It needs time and patience to create a new page.There is a page in Bahasa Indonesian 'https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daftar_gedung_tertinggi_di_Bandung'. But in my opinion, the topic needs a page in English. Thnx.

- IP's 114.124.167.150 and 114.124.151.1 have made very little contributions to Wikipedia outside of this AfD. Suspect these are IP hopping by the article creator and both comments should be discarded. Ajf773 (talk) 22:00, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

Upon close examination, I do see a later comment within the discussion suggesting another article for deletion.

An unnecessary cross-categorisation created when the awarding of the Knight's Cross was accepted on Wiki as a presumption of notability.

- @Colapeninsula: I nominated the lists because I consider them to be an unneeded cross categorisation; compare with Category:Lists of Medal of Honor recipients -- it include lists by conflict & by ethnicity, for example, but there are no List of Medal of Honor Recipients of X Division during World War II & similar list articles. Breaking down the recipients by such minute categories seems excessive. In addition, the Knight's Cross no longer serves to establish presumed notability under WP:SOLDIER by the Wiki community (unlike in 2008), so these lists are on non-notable subjects themselves.

I would support consolidation of the two lists I just cited into one indicating division. The single master list is impossible to muddle through.

- Comment -- I don't see the above as a valid reason for keeping the list on the Latvian recipients. I've searched for [Latvian recipients of the Knight's Cross] & I'm not seeing sources that discuss the topic, mostly non RS militaria literature: link, veering to revisionism such as Siegrunen by Richard Landwehr, a publication that is popular with the neo-Nazi crowd. Likewise, [Latvian recipients of Nazi awards] brings up sources that mention the detail in passing, such as MI6: Inside the Covert World of Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service. There's plenty of discussion of [Latvian Waffen-SS members] or similar, but not the award recipients as a group, thus failing WP:LISTN. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:40, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

- Speedy Keep Building is not notable for its modern use, but clearly is historically significant as the first Warner Bros theater. It was easy to find sources, such as [64], [65], and [66] - not a very thorough WP:Before. It is mentioned in Warner Bros (as the first theater), which I have now linked. I'm surprised this isn't on the NHRP. The article needs better sourcing and cleanup, not deletion. MB 05:04, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- @MB: Those sources are about the theater, not the shopping center on its site. The theater is very likely notable, but the article barely mentions the theater. I would not be opposed to an article on the theater. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 17:14, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- The theater has been recreated as part of the complex on the same site. I don't see a reason for a different article. The current complex is the modern evolution of the historic theater. Source #1 and #3 focus on the theater. Source #2 does not. I was picking sources about the theater to emphasize the historic nature, but there are other sources like #2 about the whole complex. Anyway, the two are inter-twined and I think this article should be kept. Adding more info on the theater would certainly be an improvement. I agree that without the theater/history, this would be a [wp:mill] shopping center. The article should simply be expanded. MB 17:36, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep. Seems notable. While I haven't really heard of this before, a cursory look at Scholar suggests this character was subject to some literary analysis: " Bob Acres is not the reputed author's original creation, but a compound of Jonson's Stephen, Bobadil, Cob, Matthew and Brainworm" [67].

ISBN 978-1-4081-3148-0., and he is important enough to be a central subject of what seems to be a teaching exercise at James Stobaugh (1 November 2012). British Literature: Cultural Influences of Early to Contemporary Voices. New Leaf Publishing Group. pp. 238–. ISBN 978-0-89051-673-7.; to find just three sources.

- Keep. I agree with Piotrus in that a cursory look through Google News, Books, and Scholar suggest that this character has enough coverage for an article. The article may be in an extremely poor shape as it currently stands, but the subject matter appears to have the coverage necessary to meet notability standards. Aoba47 (talk) 14:35, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
- Redirect to The Rivals and merge the minor detail this article provides. Perhaps there enough reliable sources to establish notability. Having this bit existing separate from The Rivals suffers from lack of context that merging it does not. WP:NCHAR isn't a notability guideline although I like it's 'other options' advice for this subject. Nothing prevents breaking it out to a separate article later if the content is expanded sufficiently to warrant it. Gab4gab (talk) 17:20, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

- Keep, but trim and potentially merge to Konami code The code's use in games is a notable topic, and there are definitely some that can be sourced. As per WP:TRIVIA, we should only include those that have been commented on by third-parties, which would gut several of the games from both lists.

- @Shaddim, your reasoning does not make sense. The concept is Konami Code, which is notable. List of Konami code games has one reference and List of non-Konami games using the Konami code has nine references, but you're saying that if we would merge it to a neatly sourced section on its main article, that would be original research?

- Sorry for being here unclear, "merge" by itself is not OR. I meant the "reduction to the best subset" (exmaples) could border OR (or at least I have seen this argumentation repeatedly elsewhere in WP against incomplete "example lists"). About the reach of notability, only the notability of the multiplicity of concrete Konami Code instances was shown (not the abstract concept as especially important or well designed or novel) so I would argue we HAVE TO represent the instances. The natural form is a list. Shaddim (talk) 07:39, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

- Delete both - Nothing against merging sourced entries on the list in theory, since Shaddim's OR objection only applies if they're presented as an example list instead of used to illustrate a point. However, looking over the sourced examples I don't see much of use, just iterations of "This is how to use the Konami Code in this game." Shaddim's claim that the notability of multiplicity means we have to list individual instances makes no sense; by that logic, Black Death should have a list of every person killed by the Black Death. Notable multiplicity is precisely why we shouldn't keep a list of individual examples. This is the same reason why articles on pop and jazz standards don't list every cover version.--Martin IIIa (talk) 13:41, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: There seems to be still a mistunderstanding against what I argued: the middle ground -> reducing the list to a list of examples, this act could (and maybe should?) be seen as OR. All the other solutions are fine for me, which are from my perspective: keep, merge (full?), delete the list or both. Regarding the Black Death, this is quite the opposite: Black Death is notable (in the meaning relevant) not in its individual instances of killings but as concept, it has properties which where novel and had impact on humankind in many signficant ways (while a complete list of all black death victims would be of great historical interest ;) ). The opposite is true for the Konami code: it's (small) relevance grew with every instance where it was used (or at least was WP notability established that way!). By itself it is an quite unimportant, non-novel and boring thing. PS: what about a Category instead of a list? Shaddim (talk) 18:33, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

- Comment – Firstly, the above event was a notable one and all of the major Indian newspapers had dedicated full-fledged articles to it. The information present in the article can be reliably & independently sourced, e.g. [68], [69], [70], [71], [72], [73], [74], [75], [76],[77], [78], [79], etc. In fact, Hindi language newspapers had started publishing articles on the event before it was even started, e.g. [80], [81], [82], etc.
- Secondly, if someone still thinks that it's non-notable, then it's surely a valid case of WP:SPINOFF, as it isn't possible to merge such a huge amount of details of every individual event to the main article. - NitinMlk (talk) 22:41, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- It looks like routine coverage of a sports event which is not enough for notability. Yes, we have articles about major events like the Superbowl and the Stanley Cup, but we dont have individual stand alone articles for every American Cup in Gymnastics, just one main article American Cup (gymnastics) which seems to be enough. Seraphim System (talk) 14:49, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
- American Cup (gymnastics) have stand alone articles in 2015 and 2016 and well justified to complete the main page. So, this subject also worthy as standalone article, like NitinMlk said it isn't possible to merge such a huge amount of details of every individual event to the main article.Stvbastian (talk) 16:47, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Not really, yes there are stand alone articles for those two years of the American Cup, where Olympic gold medalists competed including Simone Biles. That is enough to establish notability for the event. I don't see anything but routine press coverage here, not enough to establish inherent notability. Seraphim System (talk) 22:41, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Routine press coverage is passing mention of match scores/results. But, as I told earlier, five of the sources cited here – [83], [84], [85], [86], & [87] – were published before the beginning of coverage, i.e. before the event was even started. And they describe each & every relevant detail of the event. In fact, the remaining sources are also dedicated to the event. And read my previous comments to understand my points. - NitinMlk (talk) 20:40, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Delete This article does not pass WP:SPORTSEVENT as stated. The relevant line: Articles about notable games should have well-sourced prose, not merely a list of stats.
This is a problem with a lot of badminton events. It is also a problem with a lot of other sports events. WP:NOT#INFO.
Also against the bid that it qualifies for WP:SPORTSEVENT; it is not the final series, it is one set of matches in a series; it is not a college bowl game; it is not an exhibition or all-star game; and it was not covered outside of the routine coverage of badminton matches of this sort.
This event did not receive coverage to warrant notability. This event will not have a huge impact on the future of badminton as we know it and did not have suitable coverage for notability.The coverage was short term (only lasting for the duration of the event, and enough time to hit the papers). The coverage (looking at the major Indian newspaper coverage from above) was all routine, some of it is the same exact copy published in different papers - of particular note, the First Post and Indian Express articles are the same, the First Post's just cuts off at an earlier paragraph. About 2/3 of the articles are all written by PTI, the Associated Press equivalent in India. The only substantial coverage I could find from above was The IB Times which is the only one to mention that players were dropping out like crazy at the last minute. A substantial problem for the tournament. Or this lovely tidbit from the Patrika article (which is also word-for-word the same as the lnvindia article) that there would be a blood drive at the event - no clue if it actually happened, though because I don't have any other sources.
Being one of 28 tournaments in one of 8 (skipping individual tournaments) such series doesn't make it a major tournament unless something spectacular happens. By my count, (assuming that each series has half the number of tournaments, and this is the exception) that makes it one of ~110 "major" tournaments per year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Menaechmi (talk • contribs) 20:55, 7 June 2017 (UTC) Keep per comments below. menaechmi (talk) 20:26, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment – Your whole analysis sounds like WP:JDLI. Even in the articles of Rajasthan Patrika [88], Hindustan (newspaper) [89], and others – which give good overview of the event & its every relevant detail – all you could find is the mention of "blood drive". In fact, that "lovely tidbit" is what you call a routine coverage or a passing mention. And don't worry, blood donation did happen. ;) As far as "well-sourced prose" is concerned, the above sources are sufficient for that, but no one is forced to clean-up articles during AFDs, as presence of reliable sources is enough. Also, you mentioned that "it is not the final series, it is one set of matches in a series". What does that even mean? The above event is a full-fledged international tournament, which is organised annually, and it awards world ranking points. Anyway, for those who just don't like badminton-related articles, the above one will still remain a valid spinoff, as explained by me earlier. In fact, WP:SPORTSEVENT also states the same point: "For a games or series that is already covered as a subtopic in another article, consider developing the topic in the existing article first until it becomes clearer that a standalone article is warranted." And as you can see, the above article is already quite long. Finally, don't limit yourself to the sources provided be me, as you can find a large no. of other sources by searching terms like syed modi badminton 2017, Syed Modi India Grand Prix Gold 2017, Syed Modi gpg 2017, etc. - NitinMlk (talk) 21:29, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- You know, it does sound like that, doesn't it? And that's just not right. You have effectively and clearly refuted the points that I made, and I have withdrawn the delete because you have a valid point, with the addition of the blood drive it (and the amount of money awarded to rankings etc.) there really is no reason to delete this article. I think I realized that halfway through and then for some reason kept going. This has the potential for quite a bit more than what it has now, and it will probably get there eventually. It definitely doesn't qualify for deletion under under the nom. menaechmi (talk) 20:26, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

The result was keep. There appears to be a strong consensus against deletion with the OP apparently being OK with a page move. The issue of whether and where to move the article can be addressed elsewhere. Ad Orientem (talk) 03:55, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep. This is a real thing as far as I can tell. I searched for "客家娘酒" and found that an equivalent article exists on the Chinese Wikipedia as zh:客家黃酒. All the search results refer to "客家娘酒" as a specific type of rice wine. I'd say this article is slightly more than a cook book entry so there's no harm in keeping it.

- Keep per Deryck Chan. A Google Books search returns multiple sources about the subject. Cunard (talk) 04:17, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- I could find any significant sources in English, but of course I did not know the Chinese characters when I nominated. I would prefer it be merged and redirected until someone translates the Chinese page, because there is no way to expand it without Chinese language sources, and because currently it is little more then a recipe, which Deryck Chan acknowleges. I'm not sure we can call it "normal editing" when the sources for a subject are exclusively in the Chinese langugae or I would support improvement over redirecting/merging. Seraphim System (talk) 08:21, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- The article contains enough content and sources to justify a standalone article per Wikipedia:Summary style. A merge would result in the loss of content like the "Folklore" section. It would be undue weight to merge Guangdong Hakka Mother Wine to rice wine.
The sources show that the subject is notable so I think it's fine to keep the article as standalone. It's probably more likely that a knowledgeable editor will expand Guangdong Hakka Mother Wine if it remains a standalone article as opposed to being merged.
Cunard (talk) 07:00, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- Well I agree it would be nice if someone expanded it. But the folklore section is three sentences long, it absolutely would not be undue to merge and redirect until that happens. Seraphim System (talk) 09:24, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- I think the "Method of production" and "Mother Wine Chicken" sections provide value to readers. I don't think the sections are so unfixable that they should just be completely deleted. Cunard (talk) 05:07, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Overly promotional, mostly unsourced, and probably not notable. Maybe some of this could be merged to Ship's tender. Kendall-K1 (talk) 12:27, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Transportation-related deletion discussions. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 13:29, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
- Delete (or partial merge if anyone can be bothered editing it, but the content is, as mentioned, unsourced, and of questionable accuracy). Nothing to indicate this is a concept separate from Ship's tender or something that has received much specific coverage (multiple articles in mainstream publications specifically about luxury yacht tenders). It doesn't seem a likely search term ("yacht tender" might be but who'll search for this?). --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:35, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
- Keep and Move to Yacht tender. Agree the article needs better sourcing and cleanup. And no need for "luxury" in the title. But there is a lot of information specific to yachts, so I don't think merging into Ship's tender is a good plan. Quick searching finds things like [90] and [91]. AFD is not cleanup.

- Comment The article Ship's tender has a list of about a dozen different kinds of tenders and each one is linked to a specific article. If yacht tender were discussed in that article, it would be the only one without a separate article. There is plenty of information available for a stand-alone article. MB 14:20, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Procedural nomination. I've declined a {{prod}} on this as the article has existed for over a decade and multiple editors have worked on it implying that they at least implicitly consider it worth keeping. However, I'm having difficulty finding any significant coverage outside press releases. (Because the name is a common phrase, an online search is a needle-in-a-haystack exercise; the sources may be out there and just buried under false positives.) ‑ Iridescent 18:07, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

- Keep Yes the name makes it challenging but after some digging I've found articles in Forbes and SFGate (SF Chronicle's sister web site), as well as in Time Magazine, though that's paywalled so I can't cite anything yet. (link: [92]). Searching on the founder, Priya Haji, also helps return some good sources, though often only tangentially covering this company. I'll keep digging as I have time, but I think the coverage is out there. CrowCaw 17:17, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
