Upon review of article and its sources, the person in question does not meet the notability guidelines in question: the person is not (1) cited by 3rd party sources other than websites that repeat his bio as an official founder of Samuel Adams beer (2) known for originating a new concept [see point #1] (3) become a significant monument, etc. (4) He is not cited as by peers and 3rd party sources for the work that is well-known or significant. The article was written by a blocked user and could primarily serve the purpose of self promotion as defined in WP:NOTADVERT. P3D7AQ09M6 (talk)

- If deleted Harry Rubin (virologist) should be moved to the base name since Harry Rubin redirects here.--67.70.101.117 (talk) 23:48, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Folks, My apologies, I actually meant to nominate Harry Rubin (virologist) Late night editing got the best of me. Upon a 2nd look at this article in particular, I found new reputable secondary sources to that show indeed this Harry Rubin was indeed a Samuel Adams co-founder. I'm closing going to close this deletion nomination in favor of doing some work to improve the article itself. P3D7AQ09M6 (talk) 04:28, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe delete both of them.
- Being a minor, behind-the-scenes partner of a business does not make someone notable.
- ApLundell (talk) 05:57, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- In the spirit of WP:GD I'm going to suggest that we pursue a constructive alternative such as improving or cleaning up the article. Two main reasons (1) Being one of the Samuel Adams founders both within the beverage field and just generally is definitely a major contribution. It looks he was not the frontman, but, indeed, he's been recognized by multiple secondary sources as being a founder and his involvement in various beverage investments is notable enough to be topic of headlines. As you probably know, media outlets have full control over headlines, which means that these media outlets viewed his involvement as "the story". On a more basic level, Samuel Adams is also billion dollar major conglomerate, it's widely recognized, and is part of the American social milieu (2) I digged into other secondary sources and there's quite a few other significant achievements such as being one of the people who started GT Interactive, which launched DOOM (a major video game) (3) This nomination was a careless mistake on my part so it's kind of a fluke nomination. My apologies again to all for that bonehead error and for wasting folks time reviewing this!
- re: Harry Rubin (virologist) Even though I intended to nominate it, I also now lean towards keeping it. Mostly because his achievements within his specific domain are quite significant.

- Comment I can't evaluate the source reliability due to the language barrier but the idea that it is unsourced is false, there are two sources here and at least one of them appears to be from a news organization... though India has a problem with paid news organizations so that could be an issue, I am unsure. The other is a forum post. Two of the external links also appear to be news sources that I cannot evaluate. PARAKANYAA (talk) 18:41, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Fails WP:NARTIST. Bbb23 (talk) 14:57, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
This seems wrong to me. First Bbb23 removed all text from the article, then nominated it for deletion. See the version of 04:45, May 3, 2023 by GoodDay for what it looked like before all content was removed. It seems to me that Mr Brandegee was a minor painter but he did exhibit at notable venues (the Society of American Artists, the Exposition Universelle (1889), the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the National Academy of Design, and elsewhere). As these were juried shows, he seems to meet at least notability citerion 4(b) "been a substantial part of a significant exhibition". with best wishes Daderot (talk) 15:17, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

A 17th century Slovenian mayor is hardly notable enough to keep a page here. Although he was mayor of Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia, which could be grounds for some notability, no sources exist which make significant mention of his life or do anything more substantial than say his name.
Here are all existing sources I could find about him:
- [7] (which apparently consists of articles from Wikipedia according to this site here)
- [8] (only mentions him once)
The only page on Wikipedia that even makes mention of him is List of mayors of Ljubljana.

- Comment. Slovenia was not an independent country at the time and Ljubljana not a capital. This weakens the case for NPOL. The first source mentioned above is very obviously a Wikipedia collection. Several other mayor articles are in the same dire state, including Horacij Carminelli and other successors. Many of these only duplicate List of mayors of Ljubljana and can be redirected there. In that list, a few other details such as birth and death year can also be added whereever known. Geschichte (talk) 12:46, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

The SAF was a splinter of the SAC which existed for 10 years, between 1928 and 1938, before merging back into the SAC. As far as I can tell from sources, it didn't do much other than criticise the SAC for certain tendencies it disliked. It has very little significant coverage in reliable sources. The cited SelfEd chapter (not what I would call a reliable source) gives it two paragraphs of attention.[10] Gabriel Kuhn's history of the SAC only devotes it a single paragraph.[11] This is the extent of coverage I have found in sources; no more. In both cases, it is only mentioned in the wider context of the SAC, not as an independently notable organisation.
As this article is unlikely to grow much larger than the stub it has existed as since 2008, I don't think this organisation is notable enough to merit its own article. If it needs to be discussed, we could very well give it a mention in the main article about the SAC. Grnrchst (talk) 10:39, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

- Note: Soman has just rewritten the article using a source I hadn't found, removing the previously-cited SelfEd source. Lennart Persson wrote 4 paragraphs about the SAF, which are more or less what you can see paraphrased in the article now.
While I appreciate the attempt to rectify this, I'm still left thinking that this organisation isn't independently notable of the SAC and information about it could easily be merged into that article (albeit in summary style).--Grnrchst (talk) 12:46, 3 August 2024 (UTC) - Comment, hi Grnrchst, I'm in process of rewriting the article. I'll see how far I get, and I'll address the AfD later today or tomorrow. --Soman (talk) 12:54, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for seeing to this. :) --Grnrchst (talk) 13:32, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - article is expanded and sourcing improved now. From what I gather SAF was a notable phenomenon at its time, a militant union movement with thousands of members, with 50 local federations and a weekly newspaper. Eventually the organization was unsuccessful, but during its existence was notable. I'm looking at kb.se for newspaper clippings, which I can't access due to copyright, but the snippets are interesting. See [12], talking about a revolutionary strike called by SAF and the entire factory staff arrested. There are a number of other articles on the SAF in same newspaper (constituting in-depth coverage) seemingly on the same strike and the following court case. [13] Dagens Nyheter and [14] Aftonbladet followed the case. If we had full access to contemporary press archives, the article could be expanded and improved significantly. --Soman (talk) 13:40, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Withdraw. Soman has done a lot to improve the article, using sources I hadn't found, which I think sufficiently prove the organisation's notability. Previously all I could find on the SAF was largely about their ideology and a bit about their internal structures; that they organised a strike is, I think, proof they pass the minimum standard of notability for a trade union. --Grnrchst (talk) 08:05, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Fails WP:GNG. This is a complementary list to an article that was redirected in 2018 for having no sources. Looking at the article, it consisted of original research and synthesis, and should probably have been deleted rather than redirected to Ariosophy, which it says constitutes one part of its subject.
There is no useful definition of what to include in the glossary; it says the list "should also not include terms not specific to German mysticism", but most of the entries are about runes or from medieval and early modern Icelandic culture. If we remove those entries, what we are left with are two entries from Ariosophy (Armanen runes and Armanen), one from a 1990s novel (Black Sun), one from 19th-century vitalism (Odic force), one from Nazi esotericism (Esoteric insignia of the Schutzstaffel), an academic field (Runology) and an outdated philological theory (Uthark theory). Rather than a defined subject, it comes off as a list of someone's personal interests at a particular point in time. Ffranc (talk) 09:09, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

The article has numerable issues, it relies on questionable sources, and as well as contains original research. But most of all, it seems to be a WP:POVFORK of Human rights abuses in Balochistan. It doesn’t have a really good verifiability argument. Any content that is reliable should be moved to the Human rights abuse page, as this page is better established and has more to say. This page just seems extremely unnecessary. VirtualVagabond (talk) 05:45, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Not a single source refers to a "genocide" and barely any scholarly sources, usually news sites being used for making exceptional claims and commentaries which would need further review. WP:TNT applies. Would also support merging anything reliable to the Humans rights abuses in Balochistan page, which this article is a content fork of for which the reliability of content is to be first established per consensus.

- No source above deals with the topic "genocide" which this article is titled. The content here are mostly compilations from other pages such as Human rights abuses in Balochistan. Even the sources you've listed above do not have WP:SIGCOV of the topic and relevant content already exists at many related pages like Insurgency in Balochistan, First Balochistan conflict, Second Balochistan conflict, Baloch nationalism and the Humans rights abuses page etc, to which more of this can be added.

- Delete I checked some of Cdjp1's sources and they only had passing mention of genocide, often just passing mention quoting partisan op-eds and the like. As far as I can tell Ethno-political Conflict in Pakistan: The Baloch Movement. doesn't mention the topic at all. There was nothing that could support a stand-alone article about "genocide" or debate over a possible genocide. (t · c) buidhe 00:36, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

The term is indeed used in India. However, I don't think it has scope beyond a definition. It can be easily integrated in Fake news in India#Modes of distribution (WP:CFORK). Although start-class, it pretty much looks like a future repository for dumping all fake news spread on WhatsApp. For serious cases, there is already Indian WhatsApp lynchings.

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: News media, Websites, and India. Gan Favourite (talk) 14:31, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect per WP:NEO. The topic is better covered in Fake news in India#Modes of distribution, and the term is not separately notable. Many of the sources here just contain uses of the term but actually cover the topic (and not the term). Maybe merge a brief mention of the definition in the NDTV article. hinnk (talk) 04:03, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Based on the references added, keeping my !vote as is. These links [15][16][17][18] were added to support discussion of a Kerala High Court case. None of these mention the case at all, and none discuss WhatsApp University beyond using the phrase in a headline (two are political cartoons). The statement that "The phrase has…been a subject of stand-up comics" is referenced to a short review of a single comedian, where the topic is recapped very briefly. To Grabup's question below, the existing coverage isn't significant, and we're seeing how trying to present it as such means misleading readers. hinnk (talk) 05:38, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: Enough sources are cited to establish the subject's notability. In my opinion, if there can be a standalone article with sufficient coverage, what is the reason to redirect? GrabUp - Talk 03:28, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep for now. Sufficient sources have been added to make a reasonable case for inclusion. I am somewhat dubious that this will develop into a full article, so a merge could make more sense down the road. We can cross that bridge when we get there.--Mojo Hand (talk) 14:39, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

- Here's a stab at a source table. The strongest candidates appear to be a short article in the Navbharat Times, an opinion piece in The Hindu, and an in-depth blog post of questionable reliability. That last one is really a stretch, and I think we'd be hard-pressed to hit WP:3REFS. Even more so to get something large enough that it'd merit being split off from Fake news in India. hinnk (talk) 02:24, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

- Comment: This type of article is known as a broad-concept article and they can often be hard to write without looking like dictionary definitions. Theoretically there probably should be another broad-concept article at Quality, but there isn't. Since this is such a common term, I don't see how this wouldn't meet GNG. C F A 💬 04:10, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep This article defines or gives examples of 1) the concept (information), 2) its different values (share/give/pay), 3) how it is relayed (discovered/shared), 4) its mechanic (ludeme/cheat), 5) its format (straight/cryptic/riddles/contradictions) 6) its etymology. All of this can eventually be expanded and more concrete exemples can be added. "clue" may seem to be a simple concept, but the article shows there are many aspects to it that may not seem obvious at first glance. Writing something that is obvious (or "dull") is because what is obvious to one reader may be a valuable insight to another. As stated in Wikipedia:Wikipedia_is_not_a_dictionary#Major_differences, Wiktionary entries are about words themselves, while Wikipedia entries are articles about what words denote. This article falls into the latter category. --Bensin (talk) 13:17, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
