- Repurpose as Grand Fenwick series and delete the trivia. The novels, the film adaptations, etc. are worth an article. Clarityfiend (talk) 05:45, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to the author's article or repurpose as stated above if the series has enough potential as an article. The fictional location itself does not seem to have enough content at this time as a standalone topic. TTN (talk) 11:47, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Uncle G has identified a good substantial source above and it is easy to find more such as this and that. The topic therefore passes WP:GNG and numerous policies indicate that deletion is not appropriate including WP:ATD, WP:NEXIST, WP:NOTPAPER and WP:PRESERVE. Andrew🐉(talk) 20:42, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- I totally agree with KEEP. Four books and two movies surely qualifies as important enough. We have many articles of lesser themes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:6a01:ad31:7563:1ab1:35be:1251 (talk • contribs) 10:44, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

- Delete: An article which simply reproduces information from the subject's own site, with no claim to notability. Searches find brief reviews of the subject's band ([1]) and passing mentions of his previous involvement in a "TNT Jazz Band" but I am not seeing the coverage needed to demonstrate notability according to the WP:MUSICBIO criteria. AllyD (talk) 13:01, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Delete for the reasons stated above. NOTE: We could possibly redirect to Airborne (band), of which Borino is a member. However, I checked them out and they have the same notability issues. Their article has a list of "Awards" but several of them are actually invitations to join committees. Interested voters might consider taking action at the band's article too. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:19, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

- @GiantSnowman: 3 months is hardly soon; there's no actual content in the article, it's just empty tables. Best wishes – SɱαɾƚყPαɳƚʂ22 (Ⓣⓐⓛⓚ) 21:09, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
Draftify until there is content to add to a season article. Until that point, there is no need for a placeholder article. There will be an article at this title, but there's no reason for it to exist in mainspace at this time.OK, not going to hold up a keep when consensus is otherwise clear, although I don't think it needs to be in mainspace yet. StarM 00:40, 5 May 2021 (UTC)- Keep: This isn't a case of deleting, but of adding more information. José Mourinho had signed on starting with the 2021–22 season so a section can be added for that and explaining the move. The club is also confirmed to be in Serie A for next season. It's happening, that is for sure. If you want, you can add to the article. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 04:11, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep With the announcement of José Mourinho as the new manager for this season and the amount of coverage already on that subject, this really is a no-brainer! Govvy (talk) 09:51, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - WP:CRYSTAL says "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place." This event is clearly notable and 99.999999999% to take place. In the event that COVID caused the entire season to be cancelled, which seems highly unlikely, we could revisit, but for now I see no reason to delete an article only to have to re-create it in a few weeks -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:53, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
17 minutes of professional football 10 years ago constitutes a very weak passing of WP:NFOOTBALL. It's worth noting that the footballer does not appear to have any active career; no record of him playing after 2016 anywhere.
A Bulgarian search yielded no significant coverage whatsoever. He is mentioned twice in passing in this Darik News article and has one passing mention in Sport VT. I'm not seeing any evidence of a WP:GNG pass for Gyurov. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:39, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

- Delete There's zero references in the article and all I could find about it in a BEFORE is some trivial name drops in school directories and articles about how things. Plus, a few local news pieces about it opening. None of that passes the notability standards of WP:GNG or WP:NORG though. So, unless someone can find WP:THREE in-depth usable sources that I might have missed (although I doubt I did) there's zero reason to keep the article. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:43, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Out of interest, how many of you commenting above are Zimbabwean? How many of you have experience of what is notable and what is not notable within Zimbabwe? Do you understand the way in which things are reported or discussed online, either in Zimbabwe, or in Africa generally - especially given the lack of digitisation in our nations? Or do you just judge by Western, colonial and imperialist standards? How much of your commentariat is simple racism against African institutions? "Here is an African institution", you might say, "which does not live up to our European and American levels of coverage on the internet. Therefore it does not fulfil the criteria we have invented and by which only our Western institutions can succeed". That is exactly the criteria that the colonialists used to prevent black Africans from voting before Independence. Mangwanani (talk) 16:40, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
- Mangwanani, Get off it. The only person espousing a political agenda here is you. This discussion is about whether or not this article reaches Wikipedia notability standards. That's all. Your remarks are incredibly in bad faith, almost to the point of being sanctionable You've not made a single argument toward Wikipedia policy at all. So please, as succinctly as possible, explain how this article meets some Wikipedia notability standard. Importance=/= notability, and if you wish to argue that Wikipedia has bias in its notability standards, Village Pump is the place to do that. 174.212.228.209 (talk) 20:38, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
- Playing the race card in an AfD, this is a new one. Your comments are disgusting.--Rusf10 (talk) 17:17, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
- I am not playing anything. I have simply posited a few questions. I note you have replied to none of them. This is very revealing of how dismissive you are of African achievements. Mangwanani (talk) 08:02, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
- Actually the racism card in AfDs isn't new at all. It frequently comes up in AfDs about anything outside of a few narrow "Western" places. I've been accused of it more then a few times myself. Including being called anti-sematic once for nominating an article about a donut business in Israel, because of course I must hate Jews if I'm nominating an article about a donut chain with only a few locations and zero references. Unfortunately, there's nothing you can really do about it. Except ignore it. If you even point out that someone is accusing you of racism they and other people will just counter that your being bad faithed and taking the person out of context. So, it what it is.

- In the meantime, I find it hilarious that people like Mangwanani project their judgement of us all being "Westerners" with zero experience of how things really work in "Africa." As if doing so isn't as racist as what their claiming or like "Africa" is a homogeneous place with the same low standards or ways of doing things everywhere. The soft bigotry of low expectations in action. Personally, I'd say there is no such thing as "African achievement" because people from Africa aren't a single group and it's rather insulting to act like they are. That's just my "Westerner" perspective though and I don't feel a need to discuss it beyond that. Less the usual riff raff come slithering out of the boards to decry my comment as bad faithed incivility. Lesson of the day everyone, it's fine to call people racists. It's not fine to point out how the person is calling others racists. And that's all I'm saying about it (please don't come for me!!! Please!!!!). --Adamant1 (talk) 08:44, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
- But you still have not answered my question. Are you judging notability purely by Western standards of how much something appears on the internet? Because that it not a criterion for notability in Africa. For example, try and find a photograph online of the official State portrait of our illustrious former President, Robert Mugabe, who is now late. You will not find such a picture, except maybe one small one in low resolution. Yet this picture used to hang in every single public building in Zimbabwe. Does that mean this photograph is not "notable"? When you judge a fish by how well it can climb a tree, then it will surely always fail your tests. Mangwanani (talk) 12:10, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

- Wouldn't the thing to do in that case be to create an article for the choir then? Or are you expecting an article about the school to not have any verified, in-depth details about it except for a section on the choir? --Adamant1 (talk) 07:10, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

The problem is Ethiopia is 50 years behind in digital environment, most still buy newspaper or magazines, and don't digitize articles, even the most renowned artists like Bahru Kegne(Ethiopian stature equivelant to American Louis Jordan) or Kassa Tessema have very little exposure on search engines, and therefore have no pages.

- @Dawit S Gondaria: sources do not have to be online. If there are newspaper articles about him, that is a good start - whether they are digitized or not.

Although the criteria for WP:NHOCKEY are more vague for women than they are for men, she still fails. Particularly, point #6 specifies that only playing on a senior national team for the World Championship qualifies for notability, and she only played on a U18 team. Give her a few years.

- Keep per WP:BASIC. Regardless of the weirdly specific and arbitrary per-sport guidelines, she has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources. These are well past the WP:ROUTINE coverage one might expect for the average athlete. Examples already in the article include Hockey
NewsCanada ("The Masked History Maker") and Le Journal de Quebec ("Une gardienne en renfort"). These are both profiles of the subject, demonstrating that she passes WP:BASIC and WP:GNG. pburka (talk) 18:56, 4 May 2021 (UTC) - Weak Keep: As it happens, the NHOCKEY guidelines are the result of painful years of Wikilawyers gaming the initial common sense rules; the one I figure pburka's complaining about comes from that there are "world championship" competitions involving 14 year olds and fringe nations that will never, ever come anywhere near close to a genuine world championship. It is no more "arbitrary" than every other single notability guideline or criterion on Wikipedia. Further, pburka's analysis is off: of the two sources cited above, hockeycanada.ca is the umbrella organization governing the teenage national team for which the subject played (and is thus a primary source), while the other is an interview of the subject, and therefore cannot be used to support the subject's notability.
That being said, there are two reliable, independent, third-party sources in the article giving substantive coverage (La Presse and Radio-Canada), just barely enough to squeak by. Ravenswing 02:35, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- You're right about Hockey Canada. I had misidentified the source as The Hockey News, an independent news source, but I was mistaken. pburka (talk) 03:33, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - although I agree with Ravenswing' "weak" categorization. When I reviewed the article, I felt there was barely enough coverage to pass WP:GNG, without having to go into the NHOCKEY SNG. Onel5969 TT me 02:57, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:BASIC and WP:AUTHOR, she
has created [...] a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work [has] been the primary subject [...] of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews
: The New Indian Express (12 December 2017), The Better India (2 September 2015), Deccan Chronicle (31 January 2018). Beccaynr (talk) 18:06, 15 April 2021 (UTC)- Hey, agreed on Deccan. The New Indian Express is taking to Edex Live (part of NEI but not NEI [2] which is more of a profiling and not exactly discussing her work - and hence won't exactly be considered an independent source. The Better India is hardly reliable. I don't think this is enough. There is basically no reception of her work. The fact that she wrote the book and it exists is surely not enough. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 01:08, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for following up - I was concerned that my comment was less than clear. As an initial matter, The Better India appears to be sufficiently reliable to support WP:BASIC notability, and the article is focused on her as an author and discusses two of her works, but it may be a stretch to fully support WP:AUTHOR. However, I think the NEI/Edexlive source is more focused on her books and seems like an 'independent periodical article' about her 'collective body of work,' because it includes a discussion of reactions to Lemon Girl, her next book You Came like Hope, and a brief mention of her upcoming work, and also offers support for WP:BASIC by providing in-depth reporting about her. I also added this review to the article, but I think the combination of the news sources that discuss Aurora and her work collectively are sufficient to establish her notability, at minimum per WP:BASIC and particularly due to the depth and focus of the reporting. Beccaynr (talk) 01:50, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for a detailed response. First of all, I appreciate you are defending the article in good faith! review This seems to be a blog and hence should not count to anything at all. NEI/Edexlive - I would have considered it wholly independent if it was not in a Q&A format. I won't rule it out completely but I would find it difficult to contribute to WP:Author. On The Better India, I didn't find anything on WP:RSP on TBI but the intro itself says 'positive stories' - I am unsure if they would criticize work of an artist like or neutrally report. Subject is a survivor - and she has written books that she published herself. Self-published work, first of all, is not considered notable in its own accord (some exceptions may exist) as per WP:NBOOK. WP:Basic requires the coverage to be independent of the subject. I am not convinced that it is. And even if it is, we would certainly need more, won't we? My challenge is this: anyone writing multiple books and publishing them on Amazon (which ain't difficult at all now) and generate some coverage that the subject is involved in - should not be presumed notable. I would have changed my mind if there were multiple independent detailed reviews of her work at reliable publications. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 02:13, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 01:08, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Hey, I have been going through everything again to ensure that I am not sending a valid article to nomination. I think our argument to notability hinges primarily on three sources. TBI article [3] also has her email id in the end and has details of her entire childhood. I don't think it can be considered an independent source. It also says 'Both her novels have garnered positive reviews from readers as well as critics.' I have not found any reviews from critics (hence my question of reliability of what is written at TBI). This being out, we are left with two. NEI/EDI [4] - again, partially independent. The 'discussion' about her books are basically few lines about the plot. I won't call it a discussion at all honestly. AND, I couldn't help but notice that 'Following her second book, Lemon Girl, which was about rape and victim-blaming, and quintessentially feminist, the trolls relentlessly sent her newspaper clippings of incidents where the opposite has been proven too.' This paragraph is absolutely same in NEI and DC article! Along with this 'The author confesses that while it was easier to write this book, it was far harder for her to imagine.' Now it looks like the two are intellectually connected and she might have just given content from her own side that was repurposed for two different articles. I have also added evidence of self-publishing at talk page. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 02:42, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
- TBI appears to be independent due to the reporting on her life, medical condition, and advocacy, as well her career and books. The inclusion of her email address does not appear to impair its independence, including because of the context in which it is presented, i.e. her advocacy. I also think that despite its 'positivity,' it still supports WP:BASIC notability, because there are other sources that feature 'positive' stories, such as Forbes, that can support the notability of a subject. It also seems possible that the reference to 'critics,' in the context of other reporting, refers to the 'trolling' she experienced after Lemon Girls, but I do not think a vague reference to reviews impairs the support otherwise provided for her notability, especially given the variety of blog reviews that exist. Also, The NEI and DC articles are written by different authors, and while some content is similar, it is not exactly the same:

NEI: "Following her second book, Lemon Girl, which was about rape and victim-blaming, and quintessentially feminist, the trolls relentlessly sent her newspaper clippings of incidents where the opposite has been proven too." |
- I also think the key for supporting WP:BASIC notability is the additional content in the articles that provide context and commentary, because
If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability
. I have also added information on the Talk page about how You Came like Hope is not self-published (although WP:AUTHOR does not appear to require this to support BLP notability). Beccaynr (talk) 03:46, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

- Hey, Yes, I saw that and strikedthrough my comment on vanity press (First time I have done it and had to find out how to!). I also agree that WP:Author is not required and is an additional criteria. I still feel it doesn't meet WP:Basic, specially after the analysis since none of three sources are independent. Also, thanks for the comparison - they are not verbatim same but say the same thing essentially. It seems to be repurposed content of provided material. No two journalist will use the terms like 'quintessentially feminist' in their own intellectually independent pieces. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 03:51, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
- As noted in the table above, the two journalists did not use the term in the same manner - one used it to describe one of her books, and one put the phrase in quotes, so it appears to be independent usages of the phrase. It also apparently is how the book is known, so it does not appear to detract from the independence of writers to describe it as such; when writers describe a book by its genre, it does not impair their independence, and in this instance, the writers are not using the same term in the same way. Beccaynr (talk) 15:31, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
- No, those two sources are definitely not independent – they are based on the same press release. That there has been minimal rephrasing does not change the fact that it is the same source, and a primary source at that. (The same PR has also been published by Asian Age.) I am going to remove the Deccan Chronicle version of the PR. I'm not sure what "when writers describe a book by its genre, it does not impair their independence" means. "Quintessentially feminist" is not a genre, it is a marketing phrase, which is presumably taken from the book's cover blurbs. --bonadea contributions talk 16:20, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
- bonadea, do you have any evidence of this so-called press release? Beccaynr (talk) 16:24, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
- "So-called"? It is a press release, as shown above. The evidence is in your own content comparison post, and in the post of mine that you responded to. The same text has been published in at least three different newspapers – this is churnalism, a very common phenomenon, and one we have to be aware of. --bonadea contributions talk 16:27, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

- This is not a matter of points of view – it is an undeniable fact that the two sources are the same. I'm not going to edit war over it as the article will be deleted anyway, but for the future it is imprtant that you realise that a press release that is slightly rephrased and re-published is the same source. In other contexts, it would have been plagiarism, but churnalism does not operate by those rules. --bonadea contributions talk 16:38, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:BASIC and Beccaynr's sources. I agree that the sources might not be of the highest quality, and its quite likely that the writers used some common source material, but calling them press releases without evidence is incorrect. The three sources presented each have credited authors, and unless there's evidence that these publishers have a reputation for unreliability or plagiarism we should assume they're legitimate. pburka (talk) 22:53, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
- Hey pburka, thanks for your response here. WP:BASIC would still need sources to be independent. While they might not be what a standard press release looks like, they are certainly influenced by a common source provided by the subject as demonstrated by bonadea. Having a credited author shouldn't automatically make a source independent. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 07:10, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
- I've seen no evidence that Arora wrote any of the news reports herself, nor that they're based on something she wrote. It's pure speculation. pburka (talk) 13:03, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
- Well, we already know that the Deccan Chronicle source is a press release. Compare that source with this from the Asian Age (which is not in the article). There is nothing immoral or sneaky about publishing a press release, and no reason not to acknowledge the fact that that source is a PR. The Indian Express source here is much less clear-cut: a little less than half of the text is also present in the Deccan Chronicle article (and there is no question about that part of the text having a common origin), which means that a little more than half of it is not from there. But that 55% (or however much it is) mainly consists of direct quotes from the author, which means that it is still a a primary source, and so it cannot be used to determine notability. I hope this makes sense. --bonadea contributions talk 14:27, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
- Repeatedly saying that something is a press release doesn't make it so. All we know with certainty is that the articles have some similar phrases. Unless you can cite the press release, or a journalist cites it, you're speculating. pburka (talk) 14:44, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
- The Deccan Chronicle and Asian Age articles are reprints of the same article, by the same author, which does not make it a press release, because scrolling down on the website, it is clear that Deccan and Asian Age have the same publisher. Beccaynr (talk) 14:51, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

- Speedy keep: As a creator of this article I refrained from voting. But it has been relisted. This article clearly passes WP:GNG. Editors need to understand that sources vary from region to region, country to country. Sources in this one might not be of high esteem as The New York Times but they are certainly from established media in India. Dial911 (talk) 15:26, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment This is surely turning interesting and becoming a very good medium to learn (at least for me). One thing I am pretty sure is that it doesn't have enough for WP:GNG. I believe that Beccaynr would also agree on that and what we are evaluating is if it qualifies for WP:Basic. Even if we evaluate for WP:BASIC, we need multiple. From what I remembered from a discussion with Celestina007 is that if for GNG we would need at least three, for WP:BASIC it should be at least more than that. For now, even for Basic, if we only consider reliable sources, we have [5], [6], [7] and the asian age reprint. I had problems with TBI source as well but even if we count that in, we only have 3-4 sources which is not enough for WP:BASIC. If 3-4 non WP:SIGCOV coverages are enough, WP:GNG has no sense any more in a way. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 04:05, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Nomadicghumakkad I think reading WP:NPF and WP:NTEMP would clarify. Having 3-4 sources is enough for the amount of content this article has. The goal of encyclopedia is to contain information about people and things that might be useful for the readers/users. Unless a BLP is poorly sourced or infringes copyright, I don't see any reason to get it deleted. Everything else like tone, inline citations and a whole lot of other things can be fixed, and it aligns with Alternatives to Deletion policy. Ask yourself if the sources given are poor. But if you think sources are not that high quality but also not poor, then take it easy. Dial911 (talk) 04:41, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- Hey Dial911, I read both but don't see their context here. Oppositely, WP:NPF says that only use high quality sources and we are all of a consensus that the sources are pretty average. I have no questions or concerns on WP:NTEMP. What I rather believe is that any BLP should be sourced with high quality sources - otherwise, with the ease online news websites are selling themselves off, Wikipedia will be another yellow pages. Sorry for having a difference in opinion here but my concerns are in good faith. I don't think 3-4 sources that have a lot of content inside double quotes is enough for WP:BASIC. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 04:55, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Nomadicghumakkad In the end it all comes down to how an editor perceive things. For me, the 3 sources The Edex Live + TBI + Deccan Chronicle are enough to establish notability NTEMP of this NPF individual. Dial911 (talk) 05:06, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

Yet another low-level subcounty league with only very trivial coverage in local papers. Does not meet WP:FOOTYN's presumption of notability and no evidence of WP:GNG. Online, I found two passing mentions here and here, both in the same local paper. Neither of the articles discuss the league in any depth.
Nothing found in ProQuest about the league nor in Google Books. A British newspaper archive search only yields trivial and infrequent coverage despite the league having a history of over 120 years. Coverage barely takes up more than a small fraction of a column in local publications like Halifax Evening Courier and Todmorden Advertiser and is trivial in nature; results listings, league tables, brief reports on AGMs. I also searched "Halifax and District AFL" and "Halifax and District Association Football League" and found nothing better.

- Comment In legislative seats like Puthupally [one party-dominant seats], where only one candidate has won from 1970, because someone could not win an election should't be the sole criteria to judge about the notability of local politician. Unlike the student leaders in metropolitan cities or elite universities like [eg. JNU in India], those in state universities are definitely at a disadvantage in the so-called mainstream media's "attention economy." Therefore, i think, counting the media coverage of a person in regional media's is important. This is just my personal view. I respect the opinions of other editors regarding the procedural arguments regarding NPOL. I am really confused about how to place activists from margin's.

- Oppose deletion. Though this "garage" band has not received widespread mainstream success like its counterparts of the time, success in record sales and/or coverage does not solely determine notability. The nearly three dozen references in the article put up a red flag for me for outright deletion. That being said, I am open to the possibility of deletion should the nominator present a more detailed argument, specifically regarding notability. — Paper Luigi T • C 17:36, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

- Delete - As far as I can see, there is not a single reference from a reliable, secondary source in the article. The multitude of references listed are just things like user reviews, track listings, sales pages, etc. Not a single one of them is actual coverage that would pass the WP:GNG or WP:NBAND.

Virtually unsourced BLP dating back to 2007 (!), with likely COI editing by mystery IP editors. I tried searching for sources, but only found a couple of old articles in local papers, nothing even approaching sigcov. I did think of cutting down the content to only that which can be supported by such sources, but fundamentally the problem remains that having worked for Disney for 40 years and playing an instrument simply doesn't suffice for an article.

- If memory serves, the Forbes piece was a contributor ('Sites') one, so not RS. And being a 'legend in the field' is great, if you can somehow substantiate that, which the article as it currently stands fails to do. But anyhoo, if your searches find more and/or better sources than mine did, I'm more than happy to stand corrected; I just thought it's time to put an end to this flagrant disregard of referencing guidelines. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:53, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

- Merge to Kodyel massacre - this is notable enough for an article. No-one's saying that every insurgent attack should have an article, but this one has a death toll of about 30. Without realising this article exists, I created Kodyel massacre minutes later, which I believe is a better title. Jim Michael (talk) 14:35, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

- It's the same event, but performing the merge quickly will prevent the article I created from being deleted. It has some info that's not in here, so merging before either is deleted will give the article a much better chance of surviving long-term. Jim Michael (talk) 14:51, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Jim Michael: Definitely a reverse merge; yours should be merged into the target.
Keep: As much that I agree with you that not every attack should have an article, this one is significant considering that this is the deadliest attack in Burkina Faso because od the insurgency since the 2016 Ouagadougou ones. • • rslashthinkong (User page) (User talk page) 17:35, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment I would like to clarify, Gagandeep Reehal is not included on Wikipedia as a notable author. His books are a secondary addition to his bio. The notability is due to his R&D in his company, Minus Zero, in making India's first fully Self Driving Vehicle. They have succeeded in retrofitting a e-rickshaw into fully autonomous vehicle in span of 4 months, which is a notable achievement in the Self Driving Tech industry. This achievement have been covered by major news and media houses. And proper sources have been cited at every point. Mrexcoder
- Delete WP:TOSOON; maybe if company becomes more notable, but insufficient reliable third-party coverage now. Minus Zero seems like it's a bit closer to meeting notability than Reehal; if the company article were to be accepted, it would be sufficient to mention Rehhal there and have this page redirect there.OhNoitsJamie Talk 17:00, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Draftify WP:TOSOON; the point raised is valid. But since the autonomous vehicle industry is progressing at a rapid pace, there are chances that subject might become notable in feasible time period, so article can improved upon by the creator in draft space and submitted for review when it meets appropriate notability guidelines.

A very similar case to Büşra Demirörs. No inherent notability from career to date and no ongoing career either so we need to look at WP:GNG alone.
The only sources cited are the Turkish Football Federation profile page and TSG 05 Bamberg's website, neither of which provide significant coverage nor are they independent of the subject. Google searches turn up no useful results at all and a Turkish source search only yields Wikipedia mirrors, stats websites and results about namesakes.

This topic lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources such that we could write a dedicated encyclopedia article on the topic without resorting to original research. Remove the interviews and primary/affiliated sources from the current article and all that's left are passing invocations[14][15]—no extended analysis with which we can write about the game itself.
For additional, uncited coverage: The topic had no substantive analytical coverage either from the decade since our last discussion or those preceding in Google Books, Google Scholar, or a custom Google search of video game sources. The sourcing questions of 2009 are long resolved now: As a rule, we don't cite WordPress blogs. We don't use expert blogs as indication of wider notability. We use sources that show editorial distance and pedigree. This article is a case study of how an article languishes when we can cite no such source about the actual gameplay, development, reception, or legacy of a topic: Reliable, secondary sources haven't provided enough content with which our encyclopedia can do the topic justice.
For alternatives to deletion: There are no worthwhile redirect targets, as our List of MUDs only lists games with their own articles. czar 06:49, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

- comment: After doing an extensive search on the subject, I believe it would be worth keeping the article and getting more reliable sources to back sections of the article, Her notability as stated above is in serving as the vocalist and composer to top Ghanaian musicians and to several hit songs in Ghana which went beyond Ghana, West Africa and even beyond. Considering songs related to Daddy Lumba, there would be a disconnect taking down the article when more sources are being added and drawings a better connection to those songs stated in the article.

The character fails WP:GNG. In reading through sources listed, and searching for new sources, almost none of them address Elio, rather than the film or Chalamet's performance in the film (very few listed sources discuss the book). The few sources that do address the character either aren't independent, or don't meet SIGCOV.
This page should best be merged into the film and book, with some text being most suited to merge into Chalamet's page. (I suspect though, that very little information from this page that is worth keeping will be missing from other articles.) Redirect to the book seems most appropriate, although a case could be made for a redirect to the film, being presumably the more popular of the two. — HTGS (talk) 04:33, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

- Redirect to Call Me by Your Name. Reception looks nice at first glance, but it is made up of mentions in passing and reception for the actor, not character. Does not seem to meet WP:NFICTION. Fancruft... --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:35, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Piotrus, nothing to disagree with your conclusion, but it seems WP:NFICTION is an essay, and the relevant guideline is WP:GNG? Clearly there are some debates going on about deletion of fictional elements, and I don’t really have a dog in that fight, but it seems a little odd to cite policy that provides no guidance. — HTGS (talk) 20:52, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
- HTGS, Right, but NFICTION is a useful reminder that "no, we don't have a special rules giving fictional topics an easier time". Hence, a reminder - and it does clearly direct everyone to GNG anyway. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:39, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Abdulmajeed Al Abbas does not satisfy association football notability guidelines. The subject has not played for a team at the highest level in Saudi Arabia. This draft also does not describe significant coverage that would satisfy general notability. This article was already move from article space to draft space once by User:Spiderone, and has been moved back to article space, so that any further draftification can only be done on the AFD close.

- Delete - this is, at best, a massive WP:TOOSOON. His only game for Al-Nassr was against a 3rd tier side so does not pass WP:NFOOTBALL. No significant coverage cited and searching his name in Arabic comes up with nothing outside a squad list mention, Kooora, Soccerway and his clubs' own websites. The draft can be retained if people wish for it to be but this doesn't meet our agreed minimum inclusion criteria and I see no reason for us to ignore notability guidelines in this case.

- Епіфаній освятив новий храм у Смілі ([Metropolitan of Kyiv and All Ukraine] Epifanii christened a new church in Smila) 2019-12-24
- Second ref is an unadorned press release. Third ref is a WP:RUNOFTHEMILL public notice - "a new public building has been opened". Both of these are very much trivial coverage and do nothing for notability. - First ref has more potential as a feature on the origin of the church.

- Fair enough the second and third are not earth-shattering. But they appear to be legitimate local news, produced by real writers and studios. Second one is a video news item at an event. Smila has a church that was built by its priest over many years. An unusual feat of vernacular architecture these days. Is that encyclopedic? —Michael Z. 02:12, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

- Reynolds Wayside Campground (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
Another one where a common last name makes searching difficult, but I got lucky and stumbled across a state senate bill to "acquire the area west of the proposed U.S. 101 highway known as Reynolds Redwood Flat for the state park system." I also found another legislative report stating that "The Public Works Board recently purchased Reynolds Redwood Flat, famed resort in northern Mendocino County." This is consistent with the topos, which show a very tight cluster of buildings which disappears when the highway gets put through. The aerials are largely useless except to show how far out of step the topos are compared to the situation on the ground, but I did also discover that the state park is still there, although reduced in size after the interchange expanded. So, not a settlement, period, and in spite of the legislature I don't see any other evidence for the resort's fame. Mangoe (talk) 03:45, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

I think this is now solidly at a Keep, but would like permission to move this page to Reynolds Wayside Campground, which is the best title. This place was never known simply as Reynolds that I found, so the currently title should not stand. Hog Farm Talk 16:31, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

An appearance in one certain documentary film and two failed congressional campaigns do not help this person meet WP:NPOL.

- Keep As I wrote in the previous AFD, the subject passes WP:GNG largely because of the documentary. Being 1/3 of the featured subjects of a documentary on a major network is more coverage than most candidates receive. By being featured in the documentary, the subject is used as an example of other candidates in the 2018 election. If this is not kept, it should be redirected. --Enos733 (talk) 16:23, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- Please show us where in the notability guidelines it includes "appearing in a documentary". Notability is about sources, not documentary appearances. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:06, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- When we look at the exception for local politicians in WP:POLOUTCOMES, there is a recognition that "coverage must be shown to have nationalized or internationalized" beyond what is expected of similar officials. The GNG asks whether the subject "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." While I am not one that agrees that if you have X number of reliable sourced coverage, I also not not believe that we ought to completely discount coverage of political candidates in the context of a campaign. So, what we have is a documentary where the subject received significant coverage. We also have profiles of the subject from two campaigns and associated other independent sources. So, while it is not the documentary per se that elevates the subject over the GNG bar, being featured in a significant documentary separates the subject from the hundred of other candidates running for Congress each election cycle. --Enos733 (talk) 20:57, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- In WP:GNG, where it says "Sources"[2], footnote 2 says,
Including but not limited to newspapers, books and e-books, magazines, television and radio documentaries...
, so being featured in the Showtime documentary Surge, and the critical commentary/reviews discussing her appearance, appears to support notability per the guideline. Beccaynr (talk) 21:22, 4 May 2021 (UTC)- The documentary counts towards GNG, but it isn't enough with the lack of significant coverage elsewhere. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:04, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:GNG, including due to the 2020 documentary and reviews highlighting her role, as noted above, (that had previously been in the article before the Surge article was created) and the national news coverage she has received in The Guardian (2018), The Hill (2018), and The Washington Post (2021). Per WP:GNG,
Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material
, and all three of the national news sources are more than a trivial mention. Also, per WP:BASIC,If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability
, and she also received coverage independent of her political campaigns in the Dallas Morning News (2020), and in an article about the same issue, was described by the Fort-Worth Star Telegram (2020) as "Polk’s friend and fellow politician who first drew national attention to Polk’s story" in more than trivial coverage of her role. And there are a few post-election instances where her commentary has been included in news articles: Fort-Worth Star Telegram (2018), San Antonio Current (2019), Independent (2020). I have also made some fairly substantial revisions to clean up the article after a close review of the sources, so it is less WP:CITEBOMBed. Beccaynr (talk) 00:37, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Your efforts to improve the page are admirable, but that coverage looks to me to be about the elections she's run in, not the candidate herself. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:04, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you - it has been on my to-do list to clean up the article after the SPI referenced on the Talk page, and this AfD helped prioritize the task. Both the Guardian and Hill articles include biographical information, so they appear to be about her in addition to her campaign, and reviews of the documentary now added back into the article include secondary commentary about her campaign (Baltimore Sun), and context that seems to be about more than her campaign, e.g. "In the end, Sanchez loses but comes closer than any Democrat in 36 years in her Texas district" (New York Daily News), so these sources at minimum seem to support WP:BASIC notability due the depth of biographical and WP:SECONDARY coverage. There are also other sources I identified in my comment above that are independent of her campaigns, when her role is an activist or commentator. I think with the 2020 documentary that includes a major focus on her campaign and appears to be WP:SECONDARY coverage, the reviews of the documentary that include a focus on her, two in-depth international/national 2018 news articles that include biographical coverage, 2021 national news coverage, and some additional news coverage outside of her political campaigns, it appears that WP:GNG can be satisfied by the most in-depth sources and notability can be further supported by WP:BASIC. Beccaynr (talk) 20:23, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Those are really terrible references you have posted up. They are rank. One is up as it has a Twitter link to here name,, one because she had her covid injection first, several are notes of possible election success, which didn't come to pass.

Ana Vives Casas. This article is headed by a tag saying this person may not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines. I get the impression that some one read a report of this journalist's death in a Spanish newspaper, and then put in the article. Just because some one's death is mentioned in a newspaper does not, ipso facto, make the article notable. The article is only two sentences long and does not say much, other than that this person was a Spanish journalist and her dates. Rollo August (talk) 16:40, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

This one is very difficult to search for, because there are many Pleasant View, West Virginias. (I found the most for Pleasant View, Jackson County, West Virginia). Topos originally show a school named "Pleasant View School" here, which later becomes just Pleasant View with a church and not much else. I found a few passing mentions to the school and a cemetery here during my search, but most of the rest was for either Pleasant Hill, Wood County, West Virginia or for other Pleasant Views. I don't think this is notable, but if I missed something, please be understanding, as searching is really noisy. If I missed something that demonstrates notability here, I will withdraw.
