  • Keep. Passes criteria 3 of WP:NAUTHOR. Her novel Travelling with Dreams is reviewed in Das, Debarati (March 2019). "Depiction of Insurgency in Duara's Travelling with Dreams". Writers Editors Critics. 9 (1): 80-84. and her book Mindprints of Guwahati is the subject of this literary analysis journal article: "Past Verses Present; Metamorphosis in Different Spheres of Guwahati: A Study of Srutimala Duara's Mindprints of Guwahati". SMART MOVES JOURNAL IJELLH. 8 (2): 13. doi:10.24113/ijellh.v8i2.10421. There are likely more reviews not in English, but Assamese. Best.4meter4 (talk) 19:33, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence of notability; neither of the cited sources directly relate to or mention the subject and WP:BEFORE didn't turn up sufficient sourcing either. Elli (talk | contribs) 18:40, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV. The university research project linked in the source does mention the theatre and its involvement in the research project in passing, but it provides very little actual content on Theater Ida to consider it "significant coverage". I could find no reviews of any performances at the theatre, although they may exist in German language publications that did not come up in an English langugage search engine. I did find some advertisements for performances, but that doesn't count towards RS for notability purposes. I found nothing on the theatre itself.4meter4 (talk) 19:15, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Contested redirect. I don't think individual notability of this character is indicated; however, I have not performed an Estonian WP:BEFORE. Ovinus (talk) 18:08, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Titular character of a bestselling book series (7 books so far), that has been translated into multiple languages (at least 5 translations) and adapted into films (trilogy of films, that premiered in 2022). That article is also the most suited to talk about the Melchior series in general as there is no reason to make articles about the individual books. Ivo (talk) 18:27, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Literature, Film, and Estonia. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 18:42, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge/redirect to Indrek Hargla per WP:FORK; or delete for failing WP:SIGCOV. This is an unnecessary content fork. I'm not seeing any reason to house this content separately from the article on Hargla at this point. We have zero content on the character itself in terms of literary or cultural analysis which means it fails GNG. Moving this content would highly benefit the article on Hargla by providing some context to his published works within the article on the author. If and when the article on Hargla developes further, and/or the content on the character becomes developed enough to warrant a fork we can always resplit the articles.4meter4 (talk) 20:58, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Ivo. The subject is the main character in seven bestselling novels. Disagree with 4meter4. Both articles can be expanded. Simply because they were created as little more than stubs doesn't make either subject less notable. Should both be expanded in separate articles. ExRat (talk) 08:31, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@ExRat Based on what evidence and what policy? Articles on characters actually require sources about those characters with critical analysis/ significant coverage of the character in question. This means sources that actually analyze the character across the books and films as the main subject, not just within an individual review of a book or film. Just because a series has sold well and inspired screen adaptations, doesn't necessarily mean that significant publications addressing the character in those films and books actually exist. No evidence has been provided that the topic meets WP:SIGCOV, and with zero in depth independent sources as required by GNG on this topic I don't see how you can be voting keep. WP:INHERITED and WP:ILIKEIT arguments aren't convincing.4meter4 (talk) 19:36, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Who is invoking WP:ILIKEIT? Perhaps the article could be redirected to Indrek Hargla for now. Each of the novels could have their own articles in the future though, and where would the redirect for the character be then? ExRat (talk) 13:51, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@ExRat I think you are putting the cart before the horse here. Without evidence of sources supporting a character article we simply can't have an article per policy at any point and time. A redirect/merge to the author is a reasonable solution, which is why I suggested it. That said, I think the most natural solution to the editorial problem would be to emulate the organization along the lines of Harry Potter; where the article is on the series as a whole itself. That should not be split off into individual books and characters until the article on the series is well developed (lots of sources and lengthy). In that article you can work on writing on each book, the character, the various media adaptions, etc. all in one page. Once a particular section is developed enough, then it can split off into its own article per policy at WP:SPINOFF. We should not be having tons of stub articles with so little information that they are essentially duplicates of one another, or have so little content that they make navigating to multiple pages unwieldy for our readers (just keep it all together until it needs to be broken out). I would start by writing on the series in the author article itself, and when it becomes unwieldy; move it to a page on the series with a summary in the author article and a main article tag. Look at J. K. Rowling#Publishing Harry Potter for example. Best.4meter4 (talk) 15:25, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. That's the film though. The character is the subject of seven novels. Perhaps the article could be redirected to Indrek Hargla for now. ExRat (talk) 13:51, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to either Indrek Hargla or Melchior the Apothecary. Nothing in this article or the Estonian one indicates this meets WP:GNG criteria for a stand-alone article. No, being the main character of several bestselling (in Estonia only?) novels is not enough to warrant keeping this, not unless there is independent, reliable coverage of this fact. If we can locate media or better, scholarly, articles analyzing this character, allowing us to write a proper reception/significance section then GNG would be met. Ditto if we would find something about the importance of the series, then we could rewrite this into an article about a book series or franchise. But if nothing like this exits, this is just WP:FANCRUFT. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:42, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment. I'd just like to reiterate that if it should be redirected, it should be redirected to Indrek Hargla, not Melchior the Apothecary, which is a film version of one of the novels. It would make much more sense to redirect it to Hargla's article. Also, it doesn't matter if a bestselling novel was bestselling in Estonia or Guinea-Bissau, if it is properly referenced, has significant coverage (in any language), and passes notability. English language Wikipedia doesn't place priority on articles or subjects by their language. ExRat (talk) 14:56, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep as per criteria three of NACADEMIC: "The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers)." He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, which is a prestigious scholarly association. However, he's not exactly an academic but I think those rules should still apply. Nevertheless, he had some independent coverage from The Boston Globe and Deadline Hollywood. CatchedY (talk) 15:08, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. If this is a WP:LISTOFLISTS, then per that essay it needs to follow WP:SAL, our guideline on standalone lists. Which means it needs selection criteria that are unambiguous, objective, and supported by reliable sources. I don't think we have that here, and per the logic of the previous AFD I find it difficult to see how it is possible to create one that isn't OR (and no, the woolly definition in Bejnar's source does not help). If it is a WP:DAB, then per WP:D2D, Lists of non-sovereign nations is not reasonably a word or phrase on which a reader might search. Kahastok talk 18:45, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No claim to notability, and it does not look as if it has ever been sourced. For a while, there was a source in the form of a book published by "Books, LLC"; that's a company that prints Wikipedia articles. The title of the book is Chief Ministers of Sindh; Muhammad Ayub Khuhro, Allah Bux Soomro, Ghulam Mustafa Jatoi, Pir Ilahi Bux, Haji Idress Palh, Mumtaz Bhutto but the article has never claimed that Palh was Chief Minister of Sindh – and he wasn't. Being a union council member is not a claim to notability.

The article was first created as a copy of Ghulam Mustafa Jatoi, and then it was redirected to that title; after a year, the redirect was replaced with the current text. bonadea contributions talk 17:32, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While the subject has played at the international level, and thus would meet WP:CRIN, the subject does not pass WP:GNG as no significant coverage of her exists. Per WP:NSPORTS2022 "sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject". This may also be a case of WP:TOOSOON as the first international game was played less than 2 weeks ago. W42 16:44, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would also agree with the comment that this is a case of WP:TOOSOON. There are still a couple of users at least who create players (either as stubs or redirects) as soon as an individual features in certain tournaments, when really playing in said tournament should only be the first step towards a page being potentially viable.

Yes, according to WP:NCRIC, WP:CRIC notability point 2 and WP:OFFCRIC (international cricket point 3), a person from an associate nation playing in the women's T20 WC Qualifier passes minimum cricketing criteria, but they must also meet WP:GNG. Bs1jac (talk) 20:27, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Technically the T20I matches in question are notable enough according to WP:CRIN which expands on WP:NCRIC, and WP:OFFCRIC; but that changes nothing as the player must still meet WP:GNG. Bs1jac (talk) 08:49, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It should be noted that since the changes to NSPORT following the WP:NSPORT2022 RFC (particularly the removal of participation based criteria), it's clear that (as it stands) CRIN does not have community support, so cannot be used to determine notability in any way. wjematherplease leave a message... 10:05, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article about a regional film award, referenced entirely to primary sourcing that is not support for notability. The notability test for film awards hinges not on using their own self-published websites about themselves to verify that they exist, but rather on using WP:GNG-worthy reliable source coverage about them to verify that they attract independent attention from the media. But six of the eight footnotes here are its own website, one more is a video of the ceremony unfolding on YouTube, and one is a deadlink from the blog of a non-notable organization with a direct affiliation, absolutely none of which represent GNG-worthy coverage about the awards in third-party sources. (Also, this was created by Neelix, though you'd most likely have to be an oldtimer to understand why I'm mentioning that.) Bearcat (talk) 16:12, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - The article was improved by removing defunct links, youtube links and by adding outside references. The festival has gained enough attention/coverage of local and international media (including India, Australia, Azerbaijan, Ireland and Indonesia) to prove that it is a notable event, and its awards are mentioned as notable film awards in their articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.157.107.131 (talk) 06:43, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:NEVENT, and WP:ORG. No significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Even after weeding of materials, what is left are non-independent primary sources or press releases or interviews, or passing mentions of which do not address the subject directly and detail. Additionally it is not clear that the awards have been held in the last four years. Appears like it may now be defunct.4meter4 (talk) 21:28, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The subject of this article does not seem to meet either the GNG or WP:NPROF criteria.

Since "Tim Patterson" is a fairly common name, I did a WP:BEFORE search in the Canadian Newsstream database using his name plus the word "Carleton", which is the name of his university. I could find significant coverage of Patterson in only one independent, secondary, reliable source (see Talk page).

I also have WP:COI concerns about this article. The three top editors of the article have almost never edited any article except this one and Harvey, New Brunswick (population: 358) which according to a declared COI editor is where Patterson grew up.[4]

  • Keep. His Google Scholar profile shows heavy-enough citations for an easy pass of WP:PROF#C1. Founding editor of Palaeontologia Electronica also looks like a pass of #C8. Nomination does not appear to have considered the correct notability criterion, WP:PROF, which is not about publicity (or as you may prefer to euphemize it, "significant coverage"), but rather about scholarly accomplishments, and is independent of WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:49, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Hmm, maybe the fact that I linked to WP:PROF in my nomination statement is a sign that I actually had considered WP:PROF? Maybe "significant coverage" is a term from a Wikipedia guideline and not my euphemism? Can you talk about the article and the subject without attacking the nominator, please?
    W.r.t. WP:PROF#C1, the guideline doesn't give a bar for what constitutes heavy-enough citations, so I'm curious how we decide what is heavy enough. W.r.t. #C8, the journal needs to be well-established, which was not the case when Patterson served as executive editor. Perhaps my interpretation of #C8 is different from yours. Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 16:41, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    "Significant coverage" is a term from GNG. Your usage of it, in your nomination statement, suggests that you have not understood or not taken seriously the statement in PROF that it "is explicitly listed as an alternative to the general notability guideline" and that articles meeting PROF are not required to pass GNG. Your nomination makes a WP:VAGUEWAVE to PROF but does not actually address itself to any criterion of PROF. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:37, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Climate science is one of the more highly-cited disciplines, and I consider 5745 to be in the grey area of meeting C1. As most of the articles were published before the big boom in climate science, I'd lean to thinking they do meet C1. However, I checked 8 professors at my old university and my current one in this field, and none of them have under 10,000 cites. I'm always a bit uncertain where the C1 threshold is, so curious to hear your thoughts @David Eppstein. Femke (talk) 18:48, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I think you have to look at paleoclimatology or paleolimnology rather than climate science as a whole; citation patterns in specialties like that that are more of scholarly interest are likely to vary significantly from citation patterns in the study of present-day climate change, which is for obvious reasons drawing a much larger amount of attention. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:08, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree with David, and Tim Patterson's metrics seem to be very high for paleontology-adjacent fields. They're above the indices of paleontologists I know the names of (but consider that the people I'm thinking of are closer to systematics than earth science).
    There's also some evidence of what appears to be promotional editing of the article which needs clearing up. NeverRainsButPours (talk) 14:31, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. passes WP:PROF#C1 per David Eppstein, some evidence of #C8 and prior discussions here based on number of citations, number of papers (9) with >100 citations and an h-index of 43. The article needs some work to remove the publications list (looks like a CV and not an article). --hroest 13:46, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Nine articles with >100 citations (one with >350) meets my understanding of WP:PROF. The founding editor of Palaeontologia Electronica also goes towards meeting that guideline. Espresso Addict (talk) 02:53, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Another very badly written and completely inaccurate article created by an editor who keeps pumping out a series of terrible articles, with little or no regard for providing attribution for their copy-and-paste or translation work, and honestly, WP:CIR should be considered here, considering the numerous warnings they have received on their talk page about their poor editing. There is no such thing as "the Leader of the Opposition" in Colombia. María Fernanda Cabal is not the Leader of the Opposition, either officially or unofficially – the first reference simply states that she is opposed to the policies of the current government. She is not even the leader of the largest political party in opposition, so I don't know how she can be the leader of the opposition without being the leader of the party. As noted at the top of the article, the editor has simply copied and pasted text from the similar article for Israel, and hasn't even bothered to change the names of the Israeli political parties, so little do they care about proofreading their work. The other two references simply discuss opposition to the government in general, nothing to do with any official position. Richard3120 (talk) 15:10, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Already featured in the Borscht article with as much detail as this Lithuanian version of the widely-made dish deserves in its own right, this unsourced content fork packed with OR has been the subject of some edit-warring, with an editor consistently removing the redirect to Borscht and insisting on a standalone article for this non-notable variation.

    That is also my question, and concern. In fact, I'm so concerned about it that I didn't want to raise it lest people think that the other event pages for the championships be deemed to be apt for deletion. If the mixed doubles event gets deleted, then I'll put that info on the "parent" page (2022 Racquetball World Championships) but doing so for all individual events would clutter that page - in my opinion - and that's why I made sub-pages for the individual events. The team events I left on the parent page. I understand that "other articles are like this" isn't always a good argument, but if this is a notable event, then why aren't all the parts of it notable? Again, I'm a little baffled here. Trb333 (talk) 22:11, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Link20XX: I concur that these reviews are SIGCOV. However, I'm uncertain if these are RS.

@VickKiang: Mania has had a consensus at WP:ANIME/RS for reliability for quite awhile as its editor-in-chief, Chris Beveridge, has been interviewed by Anime News Network [7] and Right Stuf [8]; he was also a guest of honor at Anime Boston [9]. As for the other source, while it is a blog, it is written by Erica Friedman, whom is considered to be a reliable individual per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 29#Erika Friedman RS for yuri related anime & manga.

Mania's reliability has been brought up a few times at RS/N (1, 2, 3, 4, and each time it has come to the conclusion that the website is reliable or been used as a reliable source to compare to another source. The situational listing is because it has a fan-submission section called Maniacs, which is run by uncredited individuals with little editorial control. The rest of the website, however, was run by paid staff and has been established to be reliable. As for the listing on WP:VGRS#Inconclusive discussions, I notice that section also lists Behind the Voice Actors, despite a recent RfC considering that source to be reliable (see WP:RSP), so perhaps that section is out of date. Link20XX (talk) 23:07, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your reply. Upon a further look, the actual Okazu review excluding the footnotes is 150 words, borderline meeting SIGCOV.

Impulsive people, who lack any stress and live in a world where only education, or indoctrination, matters -- rather than reality or state of public opinion in countries that read English Wikipedia -- think they can change reality by re-writing history and deleting pages. Won't help IMO. Truth usually wins.Archway (talk) 16:32, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't understand this response. First, this is the emblem entry. Second, are only editors who are stressed, uneducated, not impulsive and not indoctrinated able to !vote?? Third, what has reality to do with this? I agree that WP:TRUTH matters. As does notability. Selfstudier (talk) 21:34, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sources are listed on Hewiki. This article should never have been nominated. gidonb (talk) 15:05, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sources on some other wiki are no use, bring here + translation the sources you wish to be considered. When this was nominated there were literally no source and no-one looking for any till I looked myself, so the nomination was fine. There is still a notability problem. Selfstudier (talk) 15:11, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's not how nominations should work. gidonb (talk) 01:24, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. This is AfD is already open for a while but all this while no case has been made for either deletion or for merge.
The case for deletion does not address the existence of sufficient sources for WP:GNG, and a lot more prose in the high-quality Hewiki. There is much more to write on this subject and there are sufficient WP:SIGCOV sources to back this up. The delete case is based on WP:IDONTLIKEIT and WP:JUSTAVOTE and does not deal with the evidence.
The case for merging is also extremely weak. It is not evidence-based either. The suggestion of one such opinion is to merge the article into the flag of Jerusalem but the amount that can be written about the flag is finite as it is the emblem with two blue banners, taken from the flag. If something must be merged, it would make sense to do this the other way around: from the flag to the emblem. Thoese !votes too seem to be based in WP:IDONTLIKEIT. gidonb (talk) 03:03, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment If one looks at the article for the Jerusalem Municipality the modern material (post creation of Israel) is completely unsourced and the article almost a deletion candidate itself as it stands. This "emblem" is something that could easily be mentioned there as a start on improving it. If the "parent" article is virtually not notable, then why should this subsidiary icon of it be notable? The supporters here are making no effort to improve the article, alleging that there are (contradictory) Hebrew sources that they are unable to quote and now accusing deleters of "Idontlikeit" because there are no good arguments for keeping it. Selfstudier (talk) 09:27, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not even sure where this page's current title came from, as it is unsupported by the sources present - both of which call it "the seal of the city of Jerusalem" - a title incidentally closer to the Hebrew title. The phrase "emblem of Jerusalem" appears in scholarship, but usually as a metaphor for things. Iskandar323 (talk) 09:51, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Then why not ask a question on the talk page? You AfD tons of articles, where ample sources exist, totally baseless nominations, and this takes away precious time that editors could have spent in the article space to tons of discussions where the outcome is known from the get-go. A huge waste for our community project! gidonb (talk) 13:07, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
More evidence free assertions. Why not spend time yourself in "in the article space" instead of criticizing other editors here. Selfstudier (talk) 13:53, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh for the love of anything you hold holy stop babbling and if you have sources provide them. Not make some bogus claim that they obviously must exist. nableezy - 13:55, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sources were provided above. Nobody even has the beginning of an answer to them. This is a classic uninformed WP:IDONTLIKEIT nomination (and support), which the nominator spouts at high speed. gidonb (talk) 14:01, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The answer is that in the opinion of others they are not sufficient to support a standalone article. Kindly stop commenting on any editor or their motivations as it is both a violation of WP:NPA and a non-sequitur in a deletion nomination. If you refuse to do so Ill be asking that you be made to do so, by either block or topic ban. nableezy - 14:04, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You can try to make people shut up but it doesn't take the problem away! Nor does it remove the existence of sufficient sources by WP:NEXIST. gidonb (talk) 14:07, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep it seems that deletion has been proposed to remove unpalatable facts rather than build an encyclopedia. WCMemail 14:15, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect to Jerusalem Municipality. Fails WP:SIGCOV. The sourcing provided here is all very thin, and the language doesn't necessarily match the title of this article with some sources using symbol of Jerusalem, seal of Jerusalem, flag, etc. Ultimately, there is not enough here to pass GNG. Further, there is no reason we can not include this same information in the article on the municipality, so the encyclopedia will not be losing this information by housing it in a different place. Note to closer. Please consider the strength of the arguments in your close, instead of going off a vote count. Many of the keep votes have used emotional arguments or even personal attacks or have made claims without evidence rather than making a policy evidence based argument. Best.4meter4 (talk) 03:36, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    A merge into Jerusalem Municipality would improve that page and be an ok home for this thinly sourced material (as an option). Iskandar323 (talk) 04:59, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - there are no sources which describes it as a graphic. The emblem with some prose can be manually moved and used to illustrate article Jerusalem Municipality per municipality official page, so no redirect should be left behind.--౪ Santa ౪99° 07:19, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment (NB:) For the sake of simplicity, I've copied the material over to Jerusalem Municipality. I agree with the above that a redirect would not be particularly beneficial given that none of the given sources seem to actually use "emblem of Jerusalem" (which has various other scholarly uses) to describe the seal. Iskandar323 (talk) 07:56, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Flag of Jerusalem (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This stub is unsourced for a reason, and that is because there is little to no attestation in reliable sources of the flag of the Jerusalem municipality (the image itself is captioned "Flag of the Israeli municipality of Jerusalem") being called 'the flag of Jerusalem' - this is a title that in vexillology more commonly refers to the flag of the Order of St John of Malta or, in some academic papers, a hypothetical future flag that might contain both Israeli and Palestine elements in a post-conflict reconciliation scenario. Since no material currently exists in the article on the latter, and the current material is unsupported, this page should either be deleted or redirected to Flag and coat of arms of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta.

The problem with these Merge and Redirect suggestions is that Emblem of Jerusalem is the subject of an AFD discussion and editors there are suggesting merging to this article. I think a decision independent of the fate of Emblem of Jerusalem needs to be made in case it is deleted. Liz Read! Talk! 07:14, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Only a few roles in some daily soaps. After carefully checking the references, all are passing mentions and routine coverages only. The creator removed the tag[10] without any improvements to the article despite suggestions to go through the AfC process. Haueirlan (talk) 05:33, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep meeting WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG as the Subject has done 3 television series and she was the lead actress of those television series, also the subject has significant coverages from multiple sources. Apart from this the subject has been reviewed 2 month ago by @North8000:, who is an experienced editor over more than 10 years so I don't think that in this 2 month subject is not meeting notablity criteria. Samir Bishal (talk) 07:19, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You mean reviewed pages cannot go through AfD? Anyway, lets see the references:
  1. 1st source[11] talks about the show with passing mention of its roles.
  2. 2nd source[12] is a routine coverage for a new source.
  3. 3rd source[13] again a routine coverage about a new soap opera rather than the subject.
  4. 4th source[14] is not opening for me.
  5. 5th source[15] is an interview piece.
  6. 6th source[16] another routine coverage on show's end.
  7. 7th source[17] is another interview piece featuring her photos.
8th source[18] about participating her along with a several other actress to a reality show.
Clearly fails SIGCOV and GNG. Acting merely in 3 local television shows doesn't establish notability as per WP:NACTOR and this is why I suggested you to go through the AfC process[19] instead of Adminshopping[20]. Haueirlan (talk) 09:50, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I did adminshopping because there are rules if any subject is on wikipedia for more than 90 days then it can't go to the draft space, only an admin and editors who are experienced can send the subject to draft-space. By the experience editor doesn't mean how many years his/her account age is, experience editor mean who is editing regularly and working on this kind of issue. Admin Liz wrote the same thing on your talk page. Please read what admin Liz wrote on your talk page. As you are not an experienced editor you can only send it for speedy deletion and afd, but you send the subject direct to draft-space. And reviewed page can go through afd, which i already maintained you on your talk page that you can go through afd insted of draftify because the subject is more than 90 days old. By the way let other contributor to write about this afd and till then let's wait for their perspective also. Thank you Samir Bishal (talk) 11:00, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
In no way you should do adminshopping. If you feel I or any other editor has done something wrong then you should ask or discuss with me or them first, on article's talk page or on their talk page. This is how this community works. Liz response has nothing to do with this AfD so if you really think the subject is notable then establish it with proper sources.

This page was restored from a redirect as "plainly notable" but unfortunately I do not see that reflected in either the article's sourcing or the available sources. Of the sources listed in the article, one is a blog, one is a tourist listing, and two are simple directory listings. The only one potentially usable is the Citizens Journal source. My own search has only turned up blog posts, directory listings, and mentions in listicle-style articles like "6 parks in Johor to get away from hustle and bustle of the city." ThadeusOfNazereth(he/they)Talk to Me! 04:57, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I added more sources since this discussion was started. This is a 31-acre park and the largest in a city of 1.7 million. The fact that it is harder to find sources in English is an example of the bias we have in covering all notable subjects. I added the "blogs" to give the context that this is not an obscure location and there should be a presumption of much more non-English coverage. MB 17:55, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    With due respect to the possibility of non-English sources, I'm not sure that the sources you've added do much for notability. Getting the obvious issue out of the way: Citizen journalism sites tend to have little editorial oversight. That's not a disqualifier in-and-of-itself, but the three CJ sources you added aren't about the park, they're about other events - The park itself is just named in a passing mention. I think the academic article does contribute to notability, but by my analysis its the only source in the article that does so. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/they)Talk to Me! 18:07, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Things that happen in the park demonstrate that it is a cultural center of the city which contributes to an expectation of notability. Notability can be made with as little as one very good source, or with a collection of sources taken in context. MB 19:33, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There are multiple secondary sources in any language for the article already, thus it fulfills the threshold for notability already as per WP:GNG Chongkian (talk) 00:25, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GNG requires more than just "secondary sources" - The coverage needs to be reliable and significant, and only one (arguably two) of the sources meet all the criteria. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/they)Talk to Me! 00:54, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist per WP:GEOLAND. And I have also:
- added another secondary sources from Nestle website, where it talks specifically about this park. Nestle is reliable website and the coverage of the park is significant
- added its history section
- added infobox & fill up all of the available information
- added external section
- added its area information & its citation
- added two other categories
- added another WikiProject categorization

  • Keep. For clarity, could the article state that "Taman" means "park" and "Merdeka" means "independence" in Malaysian Malay, if that is true? Malaysia has many languages. I also wonder if the article should be moved to "Taman Merdeka" as that may be the most common name used for it, even in English-language publications. --Doncram (talk) 21:17, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article was created by a sockmaster who was focused on promotional articles on Egyptian human rights figures (master was blocked after the creation of this article, so this is not eligible for a G5 speedy).

I am actually one of this writer's readers (I added the most recent edits after I watched his latest interview and did not find it on the page here; I assume that's what triggered the deletion request), and after some research I did find significant, consistent coverage for his case in both English and Arabic outlets (I am highlighting that the "reliability" of news outlets is not synonymous with them being "western". The local coverage is indeed extensive on his case.)

His interviews and articles written by him are just his work; I am not sure why they would discredit his notability if they were also included within the wiki page.
Here is a list of independent local and international media outlets and organizations that I managed to find covering this writer exclusively, and not in passing mention with others:

Based on that, and taking into consideration his written, visual and audio interviews with both local and international entities in addition to widely-published work in both Arabic and English; I argue that the profile indeed passes the threshold for notability and reliability.
As for the page being created by a sockmaster, I argue that if they did breach the policies later after creating this page, it does not necessarily mean all pages created/edited by them are not legit.

  • Comment Looking at the above sources:
  • HuffPost: Published on their (now-closed) Contributor platform, which is not subject to editorial oversight. Not reliable, not neutral, doesn't appear to be independent.
  • Ryersonian: Editorial, not neutral.
  • Egyptian Prison Atlas: compilation of basic data on the subject, not useful for establishing notability.
  • Mada Masr: Report on subject's release from site which he has been a contributor, not neutral.
  • Raseef22: Better than the above, but still more editorial comment than news report.
  • Cairo24: Report on his release, adds nothing further.
  • Al Araby: Routine report on his sentencing.
  • Daarb: Report on his release, completely redundant with Cairo24 reference.
  • Nwafez: Carbon copy of the Al Araby reference.
  • Masr AlArabia: He wrote a letter to a friend, most of the article is the contents of the letter. Not neutral or independent.
  • Asia Times: Yet another redundant report on his release.

There are many editors on here who are better at source analysis than I am, and I hope that one or more of them chimes in here, but in my view the sources above do not add up to a set of reliable, independent or in-depth references which satisfies WP:GNG. --Finngall talk 20:26, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I'm not quite sure why "routine reports" on a case are not an evidence of notability, given that this is a country with tens of thousands of political prisoners on average at any given moment, are there "routine reports" on all of them? His case alone has 68 people, over 30 of which have been released on pardons as reported in several sources, are there "routine reports" on each of them? The fact that his case plus his writings are getting that media attention and exclusive coverage is a proof of notability per se, if not enough on its own, then at least as supplementary to him being actually published and written about and hosted on various platforms.

But, I still looked up more, and more has come up that looks very detailed, intentional, and independent.

His story, writings, and activism are widely referenced in reports and analyses around the political situation in Egypt. Some of them are wholly centred on his story and writings, and others use them as a main reference they draw upon in an argument or political analysis.

This is an op ed drawing on his story and prison writing in a political analysis on Egypt in 2019: https://www.alquds.co.uk/%D9%85%D8%B5%D8%B1-%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%88%D8%AF%D8%A9-%D8%A5%D9%84%D9%89-%D8%AD%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%AB-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AA%D9%86%D8%A7%D9%82%D8%B6%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D8%A9/

This is another article drawing on his activism and writings on current prisoners to shed light on the prison situation in Egypt in 2022: https://ghadnews.net/ar/post/2772

This is a detailed coverage of his release and backstory: https://www.fj-p.com/288784/%D8%A8%D8%B9%D8%AF-%D8%A5%D8%AE%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D8%B3%D8%A8%D9%8A%D9%84%D9%87-%D9%86%D8%B4%D8%B7%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D9%8A%D8%B1%D8%AD%D8%A8%D9%88%D9%86-%D8%A8%D8%A5%D8%AE%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D8%B3%D8%A8/

This is the latest news report from AlJazeera on his latest creative writing scholarship and the book project he's currently working on: https://mubasher.aljazeera.net/news/2022/8/10/%D8%A8%D8%B9%D8%AF-%D8%A7%D8%B9%D8%AA%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%87-6-%D8%B3%D9%86%D9%88%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%B7%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8-%D9%85%D8%B5%D8%B1%D9%8A-%D9%8A%D8%AD%D9%82%D9%82-%D8%AD%D9%84%D9%85%D9%87

I am not sure how a political prisoner, writer, and activist who's been widely and consistently covered in news and published on various platforms and hosted on different outlets between 2013 and 2022 does not pass the notability threshold. I of course would love to hear others' input. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:547:901:CFD0:CAB:E406:9AD6:32EB (talk) 19:30, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG, as the subject of this article is a singer who hasn't released any albums and doesn't seem to have any album credits at all. A couple of television appearances don't meet the threshold for notability, especially since neither the subject of this article nor the television appearances received much coverage. Also relies too heavily on primary sources, as nearly all information comes from interviews with the subject if this article. Considering the dearth of secondary sources, it's almost impossible to write an article in which information isn't sourced almost exclusively from statements he has made about himself.JMB1980 (talk) 01:10, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The subject was a successful youth player, but he didn't have success in a major international competition at the highest level. I was told at the talk page one Serie C appearance (he achieved just that, one appearance) was enough to meet GNG per WP:NFOOTY , but I couldn't confirm this. So I nominate it for deletion. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 06:04, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Two sources are databases and the others mention his early death with some info on his football career as a youth and the one appearance in the Serie C. I quote WP:NFOOTY that leads to WP:SPORTBASIC (also accounts for the bold part above) at Wikipedia:Notability (sports) Sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject, excluding database sources. Meeting this requirement alone does not indicate notability, but it does indicate that there are likely sufficient sources to merit a stand-alone article.

  • Keep - he was a young player at a top team, hence his death received significant coverage worldwide.

  • Merge and redirect to D (data language specification); the book seems to mostly be notable as the origin of that language specification, and there is already significant overlap between the two articles. - IMSoP (talk) 20:23, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Frankly I'm not sure that subject is notable either - all the citations are again to the authors of the language. ♠PMC(talk) 02:59, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, there are multiple languages which claim or aim to be implementations of the specification, and it has 37 articles linking to it (whereas The Third Manifesto only has 16, mostly the same ones). If it had a single author rather than two, I'd be fine with redirecting it all to a section on the article for that author, but I think it's worthy of covering somewhere. If it's lacking good references, that's as likely to be a sign that it should be improved as that it should be deleted. - IMSoP (talk) 14:42, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Incoming links are not indicators of notability (and in any case, some 30-odd of those incoming links are merely transclusions of the navbox Template:Query languages, so that really means nothing notability-wise). Independent reliable sources that cover the topic in some detail are needed to indicate notability. In the case of the book, I was not able to find any, hence this deletion nomination.
    In the case of the specification, it's a bit harder as single letters are basically impossible search terms. I tried skirting around the edge searching the authors' names and adding terms like "language" and "specification" but again mostly turned up sources by the authors, which are not independent and cannot support a claim to notability. ♠PMC(talk) 18:26, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Zero coverage, fails WP:BIO. British nobles aren't inherently notable, and BEFORE didn't turn up any mention of the John Tottenham who succeeded his father in 2006 in reliable sources.

This biography of a living person fails verifiability because it has no independent references, and has no footnotes. The reference list is only a bibliography. There is also a draft that is almost identical to the article and has been declined as not satisfying author notability. If there were no draft, this article could be moved to draft space for the addition of proper references and for review as to notability. Since there already is a draft, this article should be deleted, and the draft can be left for improvement. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:07, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Should be deleted or merged into the main Jim Jones article Gtag10 (talk) 01:27, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge back I don't think this split was needed. Reywas92Talk 02:18, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Don't merge The content was split out at my suggestion in order to reduce the length of the main article and use summary style per FA requirements. There is still no space for most of the content in the main article (which is still probably too long to pass FAC). If this article should be deleted, it's because the details are excessive to the point of being unencyclopedic/intricate detail. I have no opinion whether this is the case.

I was going to tag it with CSD, but figured this would be better. I don't think this deserves an article at all. Definitely fails WP:GNG. Asparagusus (interaction) 00:35, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Wikipe-tan(which is more notable) has almost to no coverage outside of usergenerated sources. Same should apply to this article as well.

It's strangly difficult to find anything about them, but a lot of archived posts would seem to confirm it's existence.Semantism (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 00:57, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

edit i found a lot of things but the sites were blocked by Wikipedia's filter so i can't put the link to all of the sites my research is based on. Semantism (talk) 01:02, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Just because it's a concept that exists does not mean that it should be kept as a Wikipedia (encyclopedia) article. Asparagusus (interaction) 01:17, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you have sources, try breaking up the URLs so that at least we can put the URLs back together and see what they are. Of course, if the sites are already blocked, it's unlikely that they will count as reliable independent sources. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:53, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
