Blatantly fails WP:ARTIST and, more importantly, WP:GNG. Found not a single source about her online nor in print. FoCuS contribs; talk to me! 22:50, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - The problem with references seems to have arisen from the article's creator reposting this article with a wrongly spelled surname: it's actually Seborovski. I won't move the article while it's in AFD, but I can find plenty of references online for the correctly-spelled surname, with works in permanent collections satisfying point 4 of WP:ARTIST.

- Keep. This is part of a series of year-specific articles on Peru's participation in the Big Four international competitions (similar series of year-specific articles exist for most participating nations). The fact that this year's representative was chosen in an unusual manner is itself something that can be discussed in the article. Also, these year-specific articles, when fully fleshed-out, typically relate what happened to the representative(s) at the international level of competition, and this is information that is relevant regardless of how the representative was selected. I also note that this is one of four Miss Peru articles that have been nominated under essentially the same weak rationale. The other three are Miss Perú 1973, Miss Perú 1976, and Miss Peru 2012.

Poorly sourced WP:BLP of a writer with no strong claim to passing WP:AUTHOR. His titles were all released by print on demand houses rather than established publishing companies, according to his own website, and the strongest claim of notability is that he won a minor literary award for one of them -- but while a major literary award on the order of the Pulitzer or the National Book Awards constitutes an AUTHOR pass for its winners, the "Next Generation Indie Book Award" does not. And the only "references" here are the website of that non-notable award and the sales pages of his books on amazon.com or iUniverse -- which means that WP:GNG has not been met, as no reliable source coverage about him in media has been shown.

- Comment: The album has been out less than a week – too early to create an article without suitable references, but also too soon to say whether it is/will be notable or not. Maybe wait a week or two and see if any turn up: if not, I'd have no problem with a delete. Babasónicos are one of South America's biggest rock bands of the last twenty years, and the new record is very likely to gain attention in the Latin American music press. Richard3120 (talk) 02:11, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect for now and hope that no one will restore with no actual improvements, keep to mind that not all albums are always actually acceptable for their own article especially if simply restored as the previous state. If this is restored as such, we may have to delete therefore. SwisterTwister talk 04:34, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

PROD contested by article creator. Seems to fail WP:GNG. My search for sources came up empty, and for the 2 sources provided in the article, one is a primary source (his homepage) and I see no mention of him in the other. Apparition11 Complaints/Mistakes 20:03, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. In my opinion, this would be a valid WP:A7. There's no indication that the honor handed out by the governor was a special recognition, any different from a particular school in the United States surprising the students receiving a National Honor Society certificate (of which thousands are awarded every year) one spring by having the governor on hand to give them out (when normally the principal would have done it) because he happens to be in that city on business that day. Largoplazo (talk) 20:13, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete and I also believe this would be best for A7 and G11, regardless if a certain someone thinks otherwise, as there's actually a large amount of people would've easily deleted this as such but, this AfD is also beneficial with that G4 is available if still non-notable in the future.

Article about a film and television production company, making no strong claim to passing WP:CORP -- as written it simply posits the existence of the company's projects as inherited notability, which it isn't. And there's no reliable source coverage to support it, either -- all we have is a contextless pile of external links to the company's own webpage, its IMDb page and the separate IMDb pages of its principal partners, as well as two brief news blurbs which are about the shows and not the company. Which means the sourcing is not good enough to pass WP:GNG, and the substance isn't claiming anything that would grant them an exemption from having to pass GNG. Also the article was created by a user named "Merkennedy", suggesting a conflict of interest since one of the firm's partners is Maria Kennedy. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 19:17, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete. I can't find enough to show where this company would pass NCORP on Wikipedia by itself. Now it's possible that the article for Mazzotta could pass notability guidelines if I merge the content from this article into that one (which I've already done) and if I find enough coverage for him to make up for what the company is lacking. If that happens, I'll return and change my "vote" to a redirect. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:33, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Completely unsourced article about a concert tour, consisting only of the setlist and a list of the tour venues. Per WP:NCONCERT, however, "Concert tours are notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Such coverage might show notability in terms of artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms. Sources that merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability. Tours that cannot be sufficiently referenced in secondary sources should be covered in a section on the artist's page rather than creating a dedicated article." So until some kind of notability of the necessary type can be shown and sourced, the correct place for any content about this is in Melanie Martinez (singer) rather than a standalone article. Delete.

- Comment. I found (and added) one substantial source, a 2009 profile in The Jerusalem Post (available on HighBeam), also published in somewhat different form in The Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles. He is a successful songwriter, and searches under the name "Shep Solomon" turn up a variety of briefer mentions in music publications and elsewhere, such as [2][3][4][5]. There also appears to be another, more substantial profile of him in the June 7, 2003 Music Week [6], but it's available only via the HighBeam Business library, which isn't included in HighBeam's Wikipedia access program, so I can't read the whole thing. This would benefit from further scrutiny. --Arxiloxos (talk) 02:24, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - The coverage of him in depth by both The Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles and Music Week in particular seem to make him pass above the notability bar, beyond just the slight mentions in numerous other publications. His association with various successful songs appear, at least, significant if not strictly notable. The article may need to be fundamentally re-written, yes, but that's not a particularly good reason for deletion. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 06:29, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

AusLondonder, Parsley Man, while I think we are in agreement, for the sake of clarity would you consider changing your vote to redirect to Cobb County School District per the part of WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES that reads "Most elementary (primary) and middle schools that don't source a clear claim to notability usually get merged or redirected in AfD. Schools that don't meet the standard typically get merged or redirected to the school district authority that operates them (generally North America) or the lowest level locality (elsewhere or where there is no governing body) rather than being completely removed from the encyclopedia. 'Redirect' as an alternative to deletion is anchored in policy." I think that would demonstrate consensus so this can be closed. If that's not your intention, that's OK, just want to make sure. Thanks! Jacona (talk) 18:52, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete. This story has gained enough international news attention to make the matter significant, but neither the "city" nor it's discoverer are significant. Let's add a note on the Maya city article about Gadoury's constellation-city map theory, but delete this article unless the weight of scientific opinion shifts in theory of it's existence, or towards supporting the constellation-city map theory (or if somebody actually hikes over there and confirms it's just an old corn field). - Eric (talk) 16:55, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- I've hiked in the general region, which is a vast forested plain, and generally speaking the pyramids of major sites are visible as forest-covered hills from the tops of the pyramids of neighbouring sites. It is highly unlikely that the "4th- or 5th-largest Maya city" would have escaped notice so close to many other important sites, such as El Mirador, Calakmul, El Tintal and others... and the constellation map theory is really not worth including in the Maya city article, in my opinion... it is certainly not supported by any reliable sources.

- Delete: per WP:NOTNEWS. OtterAM (talk) 20:55, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- I'd say keep: The purpose of an encyclopaedia (AFAICS) is to provide a broad outline of a subject for anyone who wants to know more in an easily digestible form.
- The advantage of WP is that it is more accessible than a standard encyc, or more usual sources of expert knowledge, and is more neutral than a lot of other stuff on the internet.
- The virtue of the article here is that it states clearly that it is a hypothetical Mayan site, lists the pros and cons in a neutral fashion, and provides a host of links to expert opinion (which I certainly wouldn't have found by myself).
- If this story has been "driven by social media, then picked up uncritically by mainstream media" (and I don't necessarily disagree) then that, to me, is all the more reason to have something like this. Moonraker12 (talk) 23:29, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- I would say that if there turns out to be anything there, an article can always be created at a later date. At the moment it is all highly speculative, and not backed by any Mayanists. Simon Burchell (talk) 06:39, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete As a media debacle it is not noteworthy enough, and certainly under this title. As an archaelogical discovery it is so far non-existent. Mezigue (talk) 16:14, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete (unless someone can provide evidence of its significance). It is not a hoax in the ordinary sense. However the description of it as "hypothetical" rings similar alarm bells with me. My impression is that this is a possible archaeological site identified by remote sensing, possibly from satellite imagery. Its existence has not been confirmed on the ground, so that its existence remains dubious. There are thousands (possibly millions) of archaeological sites. WP can hardly accommodate an article on every one of them. In my view, if this is anything, it remains NN, at least until its significance is established. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:40, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
- Keep The topic is notable, whether it turns out to exist or not, because of the coverage it has had in reliable sources thus meeting the GNG. If it turns out not to exist we should still have an article explaining its "discovery" and debunking. We have an article on Atlantis and that probably doesn't exist either. People will be searching for this place for decades wanting to know if it is real or not. We are the people to tell them. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:46, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

- Keep at least until properly disproven. Also it seems the theory that cities were placed according to star maps has merit (possibly Uxul is the third city here) infieldg 21:24, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete So far there is no evidence at all that this city has existed et that the theory is backed up by tangible proofs. And the coverage it has received in the press is nothing else than a total failure of the media in checking an information. However this media debacle this not go for very long (5 days at best) and is therefore not really noticeable per se. If investigations on the field confirm the existence of the Maya city it will still be possible to create this article. Or to include this story on an article devoted to media failures when secondary sources appear and use this story in order to illustrate this topic. --Lebob (talk) 08:41, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. Definitely meets GNG. As a side note, archaeoastronomy was professionally recognized with its first professional conference last summer (2015) in Europe (years after the rhetoric against alignments of sites noted by Alexander Thom) and later work by others noting communities possibly being established using constellation patterns. Thor Dockweiler (talk) 16:34, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete The existence of that hypothetical city was proposed in a science fair project and a journalist distorted the facts by presenting it as a discovery backed by the Canadian Space Agency and the INAH. The truth is that the CSA helped the kid by providing some satellite images, but it never publicly endorsed his conclusions. Moreover, according to the Yucatan Times, the INAH said they were not even “considering” the alleged find, since “there is no scientific basis for it.”. The city was first reported in Belize, then it moved to Mexico, and yesterday it crossed Guatemala to meet the Hondura's border!

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Fails WP:CORP. TMB existed for maybe 20 years, and it's not clear quite when they went out of business (the Wayback Machine's last hit is in 2014, and it looks like activity was spotty and the site was rarely updated before then). According to their now-defunct website, they were founded in 1990. For a company producing a technical product in the US during the 90s and 2000s, they should have at least some significant web footprint. But they don't. 194 ghits is it, and a lot of these appear to be false positives (something called "TMB optical density" is relevant in certain biochemical assay processes). There's also a variety of mentions on forums and used telescope equipment dealers, but nothing reliable or significant.
It looks like TMB's optics were important to a core of high-level amateur astronomers in some parts of the US, and might've been known elsewhere, but there's just not enough coverage. They got briefly profiled a few times in blogs, podcasts, and niche journals, but that's just it... all brief coverage. Much of the coverage came in the wake of Tom Back's sudden death. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 18:36, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete - doesn't look to pass WP:GNG. As alluded to above, "TMB" is Thomas M. Back, who died in 2007. It looks like the lenses that he made as TMB Optical got some traction in the enthusiast community, but not really any major press coverage sufficient to pass WP:ORG/WP:GNG.

Deleted in an AfD in 2005, where the company was found to lack notability. Recreated in 2009 but has slipped under the radar since then, so I don't really think it is eligible for a G4 speedy deletion; there haven't been any secondary sources since it was created and it is written like a promotion piece - not blatant advertising but certainly promotional bonadea contributions talk 17:46, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

The White African American Body: A Cultural and Literary Exploration. Rutgers University Press. pp. 210–. ISBN 978-0-8135-3032-1.). I am not sure which term is more popular, and we may want to consider that one term (RI) may discvuss the sociological/psychological implications of this phenomena, but the other (EPS) seems to be more of a mdeical term. Would be good to hear from an expert of sociology of race on this, but, sigh, what are the odds of one being a Wikipedian...

The article was a repost from a AfD deleted article but the Db-repost was declined because apparently there was includes clear and sufficient claims of significance postdating previous AFD. I disagree with that and consider the issues leading to the last AfD delete (last July) to still hold with no new significant information.

- Delete This article keeps getting recreated, but there's still nothing that shows he's notable. Previous discussions have shown he's not notable as a martial artist and he's done nothing to add to that resume. The only change to his directing resume was submitting another film to some minor film festivals (no wins) and that's enough enough to show notability. There's also nothing to show he meets WP:NACTOR. His entire resume is little changed from the previous deletion discussions.Mdtemp (talk) 15:18, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

He has 199,600 likes on Facebook Verified Page and also here is the actual visual evidence: [27] As a "Martial Artist Subject of multiple independent articles/documentaries--articles should be from national or international media, not just local coverage or press releases from organizations."

- Comment He's definitely not notable as a kickboxer or martial artist. I'm not seeing additional accomplishments or coverage since last year's AfD which was a convincing delete once the sockpuppets were discounted. The sources I can see and the arguments made for keeping--his kickboxing and number of facebook likes do not strike me as convincing evidence of WP notability. I'm not voting to delete, at least not yet, because my computer's firewall prevents me from looking at all of the sources mentioned by Mariam Abashidze. Right now I don't see the burden of proof for notability being met. Papaursa (talk) 02:42, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
- I looked at those sources and don't think they show notability. Most were at the last discussion, one is about his wife, one says he's off to Hollywood to seek fame and fortune. None of that indicates notability or significant neutral coverage. Of course I can't comment about the non-English sources and youtube videos.Mdtemp (talk) 17:20, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

KeepI wouldn't suggest deleting.

- Draftify/Userfy – Probably WP:TOOSOON. But there's a reasonable expectation that there may be enough here in 1–3 years time to justify an article – also, while it needs pruning, the current article is not unsalvageable assuming a few more significant roles turn up in the next year or two... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 06:11, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

The article already has acceptable references. Atlantic306 (talk) 19:51, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
- Here we go again. [sigh...] WP:NACTOR says significant roles – "recurring" roles are generally not "significant" enough. The refs associated with this article kind of prove this: almost none of them are mainline press sources (really only the Hastings & St. Leonards Observer is), and most of the current refs at the article are just passing mentions. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 15:53, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
- Sorry to annoy you, but the recurring roles are in notable productions- Casualty is one of the most popular tv shows in the U.K. and the recurring role in Houdini and Doyle is listed as fourth in the credits. Also, why ignore stage roles? you are not giving theatre performances proper consideration, a production at Theatre Royal is notable and counts towards WP:NACTOR which in this case is passed. Atlantic306 (talk) 18:07, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
- You still don't get it – it's not the roles that determine "notability", it's the coverage of the roles that determines notability. There are actors who have headlined TV shows that still don't merit Wikipedia articles because they, and the shows they headlined, received no significant coverage in independent sources. Quite aside from that, recurring roles are generally not "significant" in terms of WP:NACTOR either, despite what you're claiming. (And you're quite wrong about the crediting as well: only the three principal actors on Houdini and Doyle are "main" credited – Carey, among others, is guest credited, not "main" credited.) If you cannot grasp all of this, you need to step away from actor bios AfDs until you can. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 01:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
- See you edited Houdini and Doyle article to change from fourth billing to sixth recurring which is now correct despite IMDb proving unreliable again.However, the theatre roles which are still being ignored and the Casualty show with the sources provided pass WP:NACTOR and verifiability.Atlantic306 (talk) 04:38, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
- WP:GNG –
"Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention..."
The "Casualty" refs are all passing/trivial mentions. (As for the Houdini and Doyle thing – I thought only the three leads were main credited until I saw Monday's episode and realized that five people got "main" billing. But the important point here is that Carey doesn't get "main" billing, but only "guest" billing, again proving that her role on H&D is indeed "recurring" and thus is likely not "significant" in WP:NACTOR terms.) P.S. I generally agree with John Pack Lambert's point that the bar for "notability" for minors should be high as well. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 05:00, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

As said in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Los Navegantes (that deleted part of the "neighborhoods of Pichilemu" articles): Fails WP:GEOLAND. The neighborhoods are not "legally" recognized by Chilean Law as territorial units (they are not part of administrative, electoral or census divisions). Juntas de vecinos are not a legal recognition of a place, because they are not government bodies, they are voluntary NGOs based in a territory chosen by their founders. In fact, it could be possible to find more than one junta de vecinos in the same neighborhood, or a junta that is composed by neighbors of two or more different neighborhoods. Villa Los navegantes is a little neighborhood (of 200 inhabitants) with no non-trivial coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources. Sfs90 (talk) 04:51, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

- Comment and question: I don't see why not to believe that they are neighborhoods in fact, but I agree that just a single sentence like "X is a neighborhood in Pichilemu" is not helpful enough to exist as a separate article. Each gives no information about position relative to adjacent neighborhoods, for example. Information about neighborhoods can be far better conveyed by a list-article including a map showing all their locations. I suppose List of neighborhoods in Pichilemu could be created; these could all be redirected to that. But unless someone is interested in creating that now, I suggest instead redirecting all to the Geography section in the Pichilemu article, which could be revised to mention them. It is curious that there has been no need to mention its neighborhoods, so far, in the well-developed Pichilemu article. Question: has the creator of the neighborhoods' stubs been contacted and encouraged to develop something more? --doncram 08:16, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
- That's impossible because the creator (User:Diego Grez-Cañete) has been banned indefinitely, precisely because of their disruptive editing and making a lot of Pichilemu-related stubs without the neccesary relevance, or giving to them more relevance than the real one (sometimes falling under WP:COI and continuing to do that, after it was advised that he should stop with their editing). Also, as I said before, there was a deletion request some months ago that deleted only a part of the neigborhood-related articles (in that time, Warko asked for all the rest of articles to also be deleted, and the administrator in charge deleted only the mentioned in the list of that DR; that's why I'm asking this time for full deletion (without redirects or something else) of these articles, because of the incomplete deletion of that time. Regards. --Sfs90 (talk) 17:49, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

- Well, the "El Marino" reports that User:Northamerica1000 put on their message are invalid, since there's a clear WP:COI because the author of that articles (Diego Grez, owner of "El Marino" website) and the user "Diego Grez Cañete" (who was also the creator of most Pichilemu-related articles here on Wikipedia) are the same person, who was banned for their disruptive editing and violating guidelines about COI. Keeping apart the El Marino reports, and according to El Tipógrafo reports, there's insufficient evidence about the notability of a neigborhood. --Sfs90 (talk) 06:17, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Sfs90: I'm not seeing that. It states on the El Marino pages that the website's director is Mario Grez Lorca, but the page's creator was Diego Grez-Cañete. Mario and Diego seem like two different people, because the names are different. North America1000 15:33, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Northamerica1000: Mario Grez Lorca is probably the father of Diego Grez Cañete (the user blocked here because of WP:COI). And also, since February 2016, Mario Grez Lorca it's only the interim director. You could also see in that page that "Carmen Cañete Sotelo" is the "subdirector", and with the Cañete surname I could assume that this woman is probably her mother (Grez and Cañete are the two surnames of a person here in Chile, and "coincidentally" are the same two surnames of Diego Grez Cañete). And in the same page it states clearly that the owner of the "digital newspaper" is Diego Grez Cañete. A true family business, isn't it? All this thing gives only more evidence to the WP:COI. But let's focus on content, please. All pages or reports published on "El Marino" are invalid to these cases because of the COI mentioned from some time ago.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Seems like a clear example of WP:NOTNEWS to me; sources not contemporary with the event are needed to convince me otherwise. TheLongTone (talk) 15:16, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
Comment. I am the author of the article. The purpose of the article was to move some of the news event to a different page from the Río Bravo, Suchitepéquez article at the objection of this user as stated here. It seems that he felt that the picture and items about the lynching were overwhelming the content of a page that was suppposed to be about a town. In an attempt to ameliorate this, I tried to bring in some town data from the Spanish Wikipedia -- this material however, is poorly sourced in English. However, it does seem to serve to make the Río Bravo, Suchitepéquez article less about the murder and more about the town itself. If it is decided that the event itself does not merit its own article, then the content I suppose would better be left in the article about the town, but the above I hope, explains my intent in creating the article. As TheLongTone mentions above, I can find no sources that are not centered around the time of the event itself, so it may not be deemed noteworthy. I am open to suggestions as to how this should be handled. Many thanks for your kind attention. H.dryad (talk) 16:09, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

- I hear you, but I don't think that creating an article on the incident as a way of removing the picture from another article but keeping it on WP is particularly constructive.TheLongTone (talk)
- I understand the objections and have no real qualms with it being deleted; the event got international coverage, but the coverage did not last long. The problem seems to be that the town is mostly notable for the incident and not that much else, but the incident in and of itself may not constitute a notable news event in the eyes of Wikipedia. I have tried to fill out the article of the town itself some. The data that I pulled from the Spanish Wikipedia will likely be easier to verify so that problem may no longer exist. Again, thanks for the input. H.dryad (talk) 13:17, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
Comment/Keep I think H.dryad brings up an excellent point and while the sources need to be improved I think this article is notable enough. If not than it should obviously be merged with Río Bravo, Suchitepéquez, but per H.dryad's logic I think it should be kept separate. Inter&anthro (talk) 14:31, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

- That's because you're looking for a too-specific name. Amongst other things, in statistics and economics, this is one of the classical decomposition methods of time-series analysis, alongside multiplicative (a.k.a. product), log-additive, and pseudo-additive decomposition, and it is usually called simply additive decomposition. The people who tagged this "too technical" might be interested in the For Dummies explanation of this, which can be found on pages 245–247 of ISBN 9781118940013. A slightly more extensive treatment can be found on pages 93–95 of ISBN 9780521565882. This is a very narrow and specialized explanation of a general thing. Uncle G (talk) 21:06, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

- I easily found several references to him in reliable sources such as the Philippine Daily Inquirer, which for example called the Encantadia series "groundbreaking" and "much celebrated". Again, the existence of dozens of Wikipedia articles on notable works, listing him as director or writer, contradicts the characterization of "obviously non-notable". A number of those articles also need more reliable sources, but I think enough can be found there to support notability for him. The burden is on the nominator to carry out due dilligence in searching for sources WP:BEFORE nominating. "The absence of sources or citations in an article (as distinct from the non-existence of sources) does not indicate that a subject is not notable." It's not my responsibility to improve the article's content, just because someone nominated it for deletion. -- IamNotU (talk) 20:14, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
- Comment - I added a reference from The Philippine Star, the biggest newspaper in the Philippines. There are more in English to be found with Google, not to mention likely many in the Filipino/Tagalog language that most of his works are in, which may not be accessible on the Internet. Please try to be more careful when nominating or supporting deletion of non-Western biographies. SwisterTwister spent less than two minutes searching for sources before declaring him "not yet notable"... he's been notable in the Philippines - a country with a population of 100 million - for at least a decade or two. -- IamNotU (talk) 15:58, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Another song created by this user, which fails WP:NSONGS, and in this case WP:SINGLE also. No source indicates that this was ever released as a single and the only ounce of release history is from a Discogs link which indicates it to be a promo release. A placement in New Zealand is easily merged in the artist's parent discography article.

Non-notable article, proposing a merge back to 2011 Super Outbreak Jdcomix (talk) 13:41, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Mississippi-related deletion discussions. st170etalk 15:15, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Speedy keep (as creator of the article) – Tornado has inherent notability as an EF5 regardless of the scale of damage. There is sufficient coverage to meet WP:N and warrant creation of an article. Furthermore, the main 2011 Super Outbreak article is too large (72 kB prose) to support merging in the specifics of an individual tornado article. Many other sections require this same treatment, but this was the first tornado I decided to tackle. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 16:14, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Speedy keep (ec) - drive-by nomination lodged in the midst of an ongoing merge discussion, which has so far failed to reach a consensus that the article should be merged. By all measures, the article clearly meets general notability guidelines, so the nomination rationale is inadequate. It's worth noting that the main article currently contains nearly 12,000 words of readable prose, which is well into the upper limits of recommended maximum article size. – Juliancolton | Talk 16:17, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Speedy keep - a fatal EF5 tornado during the largest tornado outbreak in US history, with a more than adequate amount of information available and listed, certainly meets the notability criteria to have its own article. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 16:22, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

Deceptively well-sourced article. However, upon closer inspection, none of the sources is an in-depth discussion of Gray. Instead, we have a number of in-passing mentions in local outlets (possible not all reliable sources) connected to him being a public defender in some minor cases.

I haven't heard of this before so either it is a new thing or something specific to deletion discussions. Where does this come from? ~Kvng (talk) 22:23, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
- A blanket merge of entirely unsourced content essentially goes against the grain of WP:V. However, if the content is able to be sourced (and if this were to actually occur), I would be willing to change my !vote to a merge. North America1000 22:40, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
- Per WP:V, sourcing is required for challenged material or material likely to be challenged. The notability of the material here has been challenged in the AFD, but not the material itself. I realize that this article is not a particularly good example but I frequently see material blanked and redirected with unsourced as the justification and it doesn't always make sense to me. ~Kvng (talk) 02:27, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

- Response. I agree the topic is notable and deserves a killer article. So I guess my question is where we go from here? Could this AfD discussion informally endorse my blowing it up so that someone can start again? I think we all agree it's a terrible article but nobody has yet volunteered to fix it. It would be a shame if the only result of this discussion were 'oh well'. Dubbinu | t | c 12:48, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
- But Uncle G already has blown it up and started again, and article deletion was not part of that process. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 13:02, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

- That means that this discussion can be closed now as withdrawn with no outstanding "delete" opinions, which is the best possible result of an AfD discussion, being a very rare case of such a discussion where people actually take note of what others have said rather than get into entrenched positions. I don't know how to do that myself and am too busy cooking dinner to spend the time looking it up now, so maybe someone who does know how could close this? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:11, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

I considered PROD too, there's nothing to suggest she actually has the needed solid independent notability for an article separate from the apparently one band she's best known for; my searches have only found expected mentions at Books and News.

releasedfilm project with coverage to meet WP:NF. A report for Boleyn, NewYorkActuary, & SwisterTwister... Audio launch was in early 2013,[55][56] and the film (trailer) was apparently released later that year,[57][58][59] rather than the asserted 2015. When SwisterTwister says he could not find anything, that pretty much assures me that there's plenty to find for those who actually look. His not having working google-foo is no reason to believe sources do not exist. {chuckle). Better to fix this one up to serve the project than to delete it because it began as an unsourced offering. Schmidt, Michael Q. 11:50, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
- Michael Perhaps I could have been more comprehensive in my posting. I did come across some sites that indicated that trailers for the film had been released in 2013, but nothing that said the film itself had been released. However, there is no longer any need to speculate on the film's status. I note that, since your posting here, you've added an external link to the article that confirms that the film remains unreleased, with a projected release date of August 2016. So, we are definitely in "too soon" territory. NewYorkActuary (talk) 15:13, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
- @NewYorkActuary: Here's me being "more comprehensive" as well: As author of the essay TOO SOON, I will clarify that it defaults to and does not over-rule nor supplant guideline WP:NFF...the guide which instructs us that when filming is confirmed (as it is) and a film is not yet confirmed as released, if the elements of its production have the coverage to meet WP:GNG (as does this one), then an article is merited. In my own searches, I found and offered coverage of casting, of production, of audio launch, and of trailer release... coverage directly and in detail of the project's particulars... not just trivial mentions. An article is merited. Simple... and thank you. Schmidt, Michael Q. 00:51, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Most of the awards listed in the "Awards and Fellowships" section of the article are from his undergraduate and graduate studies, and thus do not contribute to notability per WP:PROF. As the IP above, I tried to look up GS citations for the various publications by this subject (which I looked up at his webpages preserved at [60], to be certain they are his), and mostly came up with single digit citation cites, including for his article in Nature [61], with only 4 cites.

WP:BLP of a writer with no strong claim to passing WP:AUTHOR. The article is sourced entirely to primary, commercial and social networking sources, with the sole indication of reliable source coverage in real media being a single blurb about her winning of a non-notable "teenager of the year" award -- and the "positive reviews" for her book are all on user-generated content sites like GoodReads or amazon.com, which means they're not the professional critical reviews that it takes to support notability. As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform on which any writer is automatically eligible for an article just because she exists -- RS coverage, supporting a credible claim of notability, is required.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This article is part of an esoteric and nonstandard scheme of musical instrument classification proposed by Steve Mann (User:Glogger, who created this article), in which musical instruments are grouped based on the classical elements. The term "quintephone" has almost never been used outside of publications by Mann and his colleagues, and in web sites and books which copied from this article; in fact, the article notes that "the classification has still not been debated in organological studies". In short, it's a neologism with a longstanding Wikipedia article. Zetawoof (ζ) 00:56, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Keep - Faculty of Economics and Management, CULS Prague is largest Faculty in Czech Republic - proof - official stats of http://www.msmt.cz/index.php?lang=2 : http://dsia.uiv.cz/vystupy/vu_vs_f1.html (more than 10,000 students + more than 2000 Foreign exchange students) - probably is also largest Faculty in Central Europe. If this large Faculty can not have own wiki page should be deleted also majority of other (mostly smaller) faculties - for example: Faculty of Medicine, Naresuan University, Faculty of Informatics and Statistics, University of Economics in Prague, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Jaffna, Faculty of Economics, Ljubljana, Faculty of Law, University of Belgrade, Faculty of Management of Warsaw University of Technology and thousands of others. Another reason for its own wiki page is a little different focus from the parent university. I am believe that the largest faculty of economics in Central Europe, its wiki deserves.TradeCZ (talk) 16:45, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete perhaps and Redirect instead as this still seems questionable for solid independent notability. Asking DGG who asks to be notified of these subjects and I welcome his analysis. SwisterTwister talk 22:24, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete The question is whether this is a first order division of a university,, or an academic department. The standard for academic departments is being world-famous, or an international basis. That does not meet the situation here. The criterion for a first order division is 1/usually to include medical or legal schools, and sometimes business schools, on the basis that they are often --at least in US universities -- independent of the university. 2/otherwise, being a major part of a very iconic and important university and recognized as such internationally--the model for this is the University of California. Size by itself is not sufficient.
- but ,as mentioned above, a key factor is whether there is sufficient content. There is no such content at the moment--only a list of degrees. This sort of content will fit perfectly well in the main article for the university..When there is some genuine encyclopedic content then there can be an article DGG ( talk ) 22:43, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

Article topic lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) It is currently an impressive refbombed collection of every passing mention, primary source, and local paper that has mentioned the game, but shows no enduring or independent notability of its own. Remove the unreliable sources and there would be nothing left. The game had no meaningful hits in a video game reliable sources custom Google search. It is most often invoked as a cultural gateway into furry fandom so a redirect to its mention at Furry_fandom#Role-playing should suffice. czar 03:13, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

- I could go source by source if you want.

High Noon on the Electronic Frontier spends over a page on characterizing FurryMuck in its sections on "Cyborg Sexuality" and "The Cyborg Self", but the subject of that coverage is really the more notable cybersex and the internet. The Players' Realm spends over a page discussing the interaction between FurryMUCK's moderators, minors, the ACLU and the impact of the Communications Decency Act, but the subject of that coverage is the more notable internet. - hahnchen 23:25, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

I came across this as a speedy candidate, where it was tagged as being overly promotional. The page isn't over the top promotional enough to be a comfortable speedy, however at the same time there really isn't anything out there to show how this game is ultimately notable enough for an article. It exists and can be played, but there's just no coverage outside of an article written by the student newspaper of the college the game's creators attended. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:13, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - For what it's worth, I agree that this probably shouldn't be speedy deleted, because there is content and there is referencing and theoretically possible notability. That said, I agree that this page does not quite pass the threshold for notability. It's just too small and local. Fieari (talk) 04:58, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Keep- I'm still working on the Twisted Kicks page, adding more links and reviews. I just added a 'Reception' sub-topic to the page. The page is a work-in-progress, but I have been slowly updating it. Kbar100 (talk) 18:38, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Kbar100: You cannot and should not link to Amazon reviews on Wikipedia or really to Amazon at all. (This wasn't meant to be harsh, just to emphasize that it isn't seen as appropriate to add to Wikipedia. In general you should not be linking to any e-commerce site like Amazon, Barnes & Nobles, Wal-Mart, etc on Wikipedia.) The reason for this is that anyone can write a review on Amazon, so the site isn't discerning at all. There have actually been articles about people swaying the ratings in one direction or another to either promote something or troll someone, something that's actually pretty common on most sites that allow for user submitted reviews. The Board Game Geeks site looks to be the same, although it isn't an e-commerce site. The basic rule of thumb is that if the site allows users to post reviews, it cannot be used to establish notability and should not be mentioned on a Wikipedia article. While I don't think that the game creators are going around asking people to bolster their ratings on various sites, people can and have done this in the past, to the point where this sort of information shouldn't be used in the article at all. The only exception to this would be if the user ratings gained widespread media attention, as was the case with IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes user ratings for Saving Christmas or Amazon reviews for Bend, Not Break. In either case the user ratings got fairly widespread media attention, allowing us to include mention of the user ratings in the article. It's also something that can be seen as fairly promotional in tone, even if the intention wasn't to promote. Now I've also removed the link to the Apple store download. Links like that are considered to be inappropriate on Wikipedia because they can also be seen as inherently promotional. The official website can remain and ideally the link to the various download sites should already be in the official website. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 03:38, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete The only possible source I could find came from the Daily Bruin which is the student newspaper for the university the two creators were attending when they developed the game. There aren't enough sources covering the game to meet notability requirements, and the one possible source that does exist is not independent of the subject. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 05:04, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Sources are mostly press releases; the key aspect of GNG is that here are sufficient independent sources with substantial discussion with which to build an article. That the article "must" be built on press releases, as that is pretty much all there is, makes the article inherently promotional and not encyclopedic Jytdog (talk) 03:33, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

- Again,
speedy keep. Please do your research before putting articles for deletion just because you do not know about the subject. Even if most information available now is on selling vehicles, that still shows notability. Count the links where "Vel Rosita" or "Detergente Vel" is mentioned and you will see how famous this brand was. And please don't say it's only 3 (or 5, or 10 for that matter) links because we know better than that. At least in Latin America Vel was a huge product once and, it seems, in the United States too as it was sold at major stores at a time.[1] Antonio El Super Detergente Martin (Diganme) 23:52, May 12, 2016 (UTC)

A journalist, author and political activist, he has spent nearly 10 years in jail, on and off, since first being arrested by Indian security forces in 1968."

WeakKeep - This article does have print references that single out Don Bacon, specifically, in two different articles, in detail. This does not appear to be routine coverage, given the length of detail these two references go into. That said, I recognize that the WP:NBASE policy is that "Some minor league players receive some coverage from reliable sources, but not enough to satisfy the notability criteria for an independent article. In these cases, it may be appropriate to write a short, stub-length bio as a section within the article on the franchise's minor league players". The trouble is that this is not a RECENT minor league player, so I'd be loathe to create a page specifically for historic players of this minor league team. Given that there was apparently significant contemporary coverage of this minor league player, I'm leaning towards keeping this one. Fieari (talk) 02:04, 20 May 2016 (UTC)- Those pages are meant only for active players. I clarified that on WP:NBASE. Does two references count as "significant" coverage? I think it's not enough. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:09, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- I'm prone to believe that, given he won an award and led a team to victory, and given that we have two articles with him (not the team, the person) as the central focus of the article, that there are likely more contemporary sources that will continue to establish his notability. That said, even if there aren't any more sources (and I still suspect there will be more), the two articles we do have are from reliable sources, and they are extensive, not merely a mention but the actual focus of the articles. Reviewing this closer, I've actually become convinced to upgrade my !vote from "weak keep" to "keep". Fieari (talk) 02:32, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

- Social media posts are, for the most part, not considered reliable sources (see WP:UGC). Wikipedia is not the place for working documents or promoting a cause, regardless of how worthy that cause may be. Please see What Wikipedia is Not. RA0808 talkcontribs 02:16, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - Unfortunately, Wikipedia is not the place for "working documents". You may find it more useful to look into a Wikia to aid editing a working document together with likeminded individuals. Wikipedia is for reporting on things that other people have reported on, only. This article has multiple references, but each of these references only state that the Congressional Caucus on Black Women and Girls exists, not that this bill of rights was presented, or any information about this bill of rights at all. There are no reliable secondary sources that this is something that has even happened, and without reliable secondary sources, we cannot include it in Wikipedia.

- This bill of rights has been reported on in several reliable sources listed below, this page is meant to merely be educational, not promotional.

- Review of Movetoendviolence reference: The article text does not mention it at all. There is a video link that has it in the title, however, the article is about the caucus, and the video appears to be providing an example of the sort of thing the caucus does, not being an in-depth report about the bill itself. I would call this a "trivial" mention, and not an establishment of notability.
- Review of Essence reference: The article does not discuss the bill of rights except to mention it in passing, not as a thing that exists, but as a thing they look forwards to seeing once it does exist. This reference does not provide notability.
- Unfortunately, my !vote for deletion must still stand. Maybe this SHOULD be of more importance. Maybe this SHOULD have more coverage, more media attention. Alas, this particular subtopic of the caucus does not appear to have the sufficient attention of reliable secondary sources, even those interested in the caucus to being with. As such, Wikipedia can't sustain an article on it.
- There may be a valid argument that these two references are sufficient to allow a reference in the main caucus article. However, even in this contingency, all that could be stated would be the name of the bill, and the fact that it exists. The contents of the bill, and the majority of this article, are unsourced and thus must remain excluded. Fieari (talk) 04:51, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete and Speedy Delete - It may be moot anyway... the text has been hidden due to copyvio, but even without seeing the text, I can tell that "Dlokcuc" is "Cuckold" spelled backwards, and is thus almost certainly WP:BOLLOCKS.

There's no evidence to suggest this is still active and the new external link is now closed and my own searches only found a few links here and nothing good, thus with no signs of improvement and existing like this since February 2007, there's nothing to suggest keeping.
