Deletion Sorting
Project

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Arts. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

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

Promotionally-toned article on a non-notable artist. Possibly COI or UPE as part of a series of promotional articles on the Munsi/Munshi family.

I vote against deletion. While the article has issues, they aren't based on notability. It is clearly a well-cited and long running organisation that is important the UK cultural scene. The article could more clearly lay out the history and challenges of the org, as mentioned above, but this doesn't warrant deletion. genericxz (talk) 13:47, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The nominator has invoked WP:NCORP, however from this link [1] we see that the subject is a charity, therefore WP:NONPROFIT applies. It is not necessary for the subject to meet the more stringent guidelines put in place for corporate entities. On this basis - in particular including from the arguments above - there does appear sufficient coverage and citations of the activities of this charity to have a reasonable presumption of notability.

Notability not established with significant sources. Prod removal claimed "artworks are usually accepted with one good source" – besides this being completely false, the single citation has only a single sentence on it and is not a good source toward GNG at all. The only sources I can find are routine data generic to any painting and no substantive coverage about the piece. Reywas92Talk 13:39, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not finding this professor and art critic notable per WP:Nacademic nor WP:NAUTHOR. The current sourcing consists of two press releases and a listing that is a simple name check.

All right, I'll bite, this article is probably not notable. The refbombing makes it really hard to assess the quality of the sources, but even then, it seems most coverage is either WP:ROUTINE or about the movement he founded, empathism. Allan Nonymous (talk) 12:50, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the previous deletion discussion (here [2]) is informative as per source quality. I would additionally suggest salting. Allan Nonymous (talk) 13:28, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Many of the sources are local, and many are written by followers/adherents/members of his so-called "cultural movement", Empathism, who have signed his "manifesto", therefore are not independent.
Netherzone (talk) 16:14, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. For full disclosure I was recently heavily involved in both the ANI thread and the SPI which resulted in the socks being blocked. However, I agree with the positions taken by Allan Nonymous and Netherzone above. The fact that the equivalent article was deleted on Italian Wikipedia on notability grounds is, I suspect, a relevant consideration here. Axad12 (talk) 03:28, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I do not know what this editor(s) did so bad, but I think that this profile od Menotti Lerro, also born as a draft accepted, did not need spam to be encyclopedic. I see academic monographies dedicated to the Author. A lot of relevant articles "Poesia" international magazine more times since 2003 (therefore 17 years before his movement), and articles written by Roberto Carifi, Nuovi Argomenti main Italian literary magazine, Avvenire by Maurizio Cucchi who wrote also on La Stampa in 2006. The author developed Cilento Poetry Prize financed by Italian Ministry of Culture for 140.500 Euro (seems very relevant thing to me...), his prize, was written in the page, has been now given to the Nobel Prize Jon Fosse who did not adhere to the movement... Same in the Movement there is the other Nobel Prize Olga Tokarczuk but she did not receive the prize (so did not adhered for this...). His movement is published in Academic volume The Empathic Movement (CSP: 2023). The same movement started in 2020 while the prize started 2017 (therefore it is not true that Lerro was convincing authors giving them the prize... at the least no in the first 3 years and no Jon Fosse, because he did not adhered, who is pretty relevant author and example, I guess. The author taught in Universities and has 4 academic degrees (MA from UK and PhD) and he is author of both: academic and creative volumes (around 40). I really do not understand why he did not earn to be on the free encyclopedy... Maybe the editor(s) did mistake (I do not see the real reason for them, but you should maybe to be a bit more open about the author himself...Heremsun (talk) 16:21, 27 September 2024 (UTC)— Heremsun (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

    @Heremsun, welcome, it's interesting that out of the blue on your very first edit of WP, you would find this AfD to make your very first edit. Please tell us how that coincidence occurred.

Fails GNG. The article is currently an amalgamation of primary sources and non-notable pictures. The only secondary sources are those that discuss Turing himself; this material is already discussed in the main Turing machine article, which also contains pictures of physical implementations. The primary sources are not important enough to merge into the main article. My PROD was previously removed. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 19:53, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another article on a non-notable artist and professor from a "walled garden"-type series of articles promoting the "members" of Menotti Lerro's "movement/manifesto", Empathism and his New Manifesto of Arts. The subject of this article does not meet WP:GNG, all the sources are primary/connected except the Milano Today source that simple name-checks him in a mention. As an academic, he fails WP:NACADEMIC as he has a h-index of zero on Google Scholar and Scopus, and all I could find was an article written by Lerro about his own (Lerro's) so-called Empathic movement. I beleive this is WP:PROMO and should be deleted. Bringing it here for the community to decide. Netherzone (talk) 01:33, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This article on an Italian artist is part of a sort-of "walled garden" of articles on artists and academics affiliated with Menotti Lerro's so-called movement, Empathism and who signed his manifesto. The subject of the article does not meet WP:GNG as the sources are all primary sources except, perhaps one, however that may be a press release. Fails WP:NARTIST. The article claims he was in the Venice Bienale 3 times, altho this could not be verified by the Venice Bienale itself [5]], so perhaps he was in one of the satellite shows but not represented in the actual Bienale. As an academic he fails WP:NACADEMIC, as there is an h-index score of zero on Google Scholar and Scopus I found a few things he wrote, but they were not cited by others. Bringing it here for the community to decide. Netherzone (talk) 01:25, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete — per nom. Empathism spam, no real evidence of notability. — Biruitorul Talk 10:54, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Changing vote to Delete, per nomination. This does look like a cookie-cutter article springing from Empathism. Leaving that aside, I see him in ALK online, and two exhibitions. I cannnot, however, find RS for the claim that he was at the Venice Biennale three times, unless the source given https://www.accademiavirtuosi.it/accademici/biovirtuoso.php?id=20 is to be trusted. Perhaps I am searching the internet incorrectly, but I thought the Biennale was documented well by the Biennale. He has been quoted in the volume by Vittorio Sgarbi (edited by), La scultura del Novecento in Italia, in Enciclopedia Universale dell'Arte (Mondadori: 1990); in Gillo Dorfles, Ultime tendenze nell'arte oggi (Feltrinelli: 1999) and in Vittorio Sgarbi (edited by), Lo Stato dell’Arte / Campania 54 Biennale di Venezia (Skira publishing: 2011). is just a weird claim sentence.

Initially PRODed by me, for the following reason:

In addition to the existing relying on a single source and vagueness issues (likely due to translation), the information in the article could easily be included onto the existing articles – DIN 1451, Austria (typeface), Tern (typeface) and Road signs in Austria – with the provision of sources, weakening the article's basis.

Deletion was objected, a merged was proposed instead. However, it is not possible to redirect one article to 3 others. Created a topic at WikiProject Typography over 4 months ago with no response. The article has no notability on its own, and is poorly written/explained. EthanL13 | talk 22:06, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it is in this case, as the article makes clear. The term should lead the reader somewhere. Do you have more general redirect targets in mind? --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 06:47, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think the article is much to go by – it can't even stick to its own subject in the lead. If it were possible, a disambiguation page (with DIN 1451 as its primary article) would be ideal, with links to Austria (typeface), Tern (typeface) and FE-Schrift. Just an idea, not sure if it's possible. EthanL13 | talk 09:36, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe a disambiguation would be the way to go, given the several different types where the term is accepted as a variant, and the fact that it also represents the original German term for shorthand [6]. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 10:05, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Part of a walled garden revolving around “empathism”. No credible evidence of notability. Biruitorul Talk 10:51, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Insufficient sources that are fully independent, secondary and in-depth. I can find a few press-releases online and a few things he wrote, but no indepth coverage of him and his work. The current sourcing is 1) Something he wrote about himself in a daily newspaper (non-independent, primary) "Maurizio Zenga talks about his experience...."; 2) List of "followers" or "adherents" to Menotti Lerro's so-called movement/manifesto Empathism - non-independent, primary source written by Lerro, that name checks Zenga as a signatory; 3) PR "preview" press release for a forthcoming event (public relations/press release). This article and many others created by a COI single-purpose account on numerous non-notable "followers" of Lerro's Empathism - it's WP:PROMO. The subject does not meet notability criteria for WP:NACADEMIC - Google scholar h-index score of zero, nothing on Scopus. Fails WP:NARCHITECT and WP:NARTIST.
