- Keep Silverman was a top Republican bundler, one of the early ambassadors appointed because of their fund-raising efforts, was a victim in one of the largest scandals in the US involving the sitting Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of New York, and later was national spokesperson for the National Center for Victims of Crime talking about her experiences.Patapsco913 (talk) 18:30, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- Keep, meets BASIC. Time magazine 1956 (behind a paywall). The NYT published his obituary with byline. His autobiography was published by Doubleday Books and reviewed by the New York Times [4]. Among the many, many advertising campaigns he's known for, he was the guy who got I Love Lucy on the air by securing a sponsorship from cigarette company Phillip Morris. If you want to put a face to it, here is a neat photogaph from Getty Images of Biow, Lucille Ball, and Art Buchwald outside of Maxim's in Paris, 1955. This is probably a WP:SNOW candidate.

- Keep Editor nominated a Maurice Kremer for deletion who died in 1907 while his rationale refers to a different Maurice Kremer who has an award in his name and was born in 1907. {https://nebraskalegislature.gov/education/kremer.php} I wonder how much investigation he did? Kremer was one of the early Jewish government servants in Los Angeles, founding member of Wilshire Boulevard Temple, and along with several other Eastern European immigrants, funded the development of LA's first streetcar system and the power and water networks.

- Keep. A tough 19th century figure to research, but I'm rather proud of my colleagues, having followed this article for a few months, and seeing multiple editors bring forward sources about this topic. The WP:THREE are [5] [6] [7], and I'd also add [8] [9] (pp. 16–19 and 21) and [10] (though it's short). Levivich [dubious – discuss] 20:02, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, one of the pioneers of Los Angeles and of the Los Angeles Jewish Community, certainly meets guidelines for notability. Nominator does a google search for a Maurice Kremer who was a Senator from Nebraska and uses the results to try to delete this article, when the two people are not one and the same. This should be snow closed as a disruptive nomination.Sir Joseph (talk) 00:34, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

I've speeded this article twice in the past as G11 and G5, but the new version was created by a good-faith editor. Anyhow: referenciness is provided in the form of a handful of news stories that are based on press releases. It is not the spam it once was, but I do suspect it's a solicited contribution abusing the good faith of a decent editor outside what seem to be his normal areas of interest, I don't think it establishes WP:GNG and it certainly fails WP:CORP.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, buidhe 17:47, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete I cannot find a single source meets the criteria for establishing the notability *of the company*. The references are based on company announcements and fails WP:ORGIND and/or WP:CORPDEPTH.
- This from USA Today, this from CNBC and this from The Times are simply generic company-profile PR pieces. There is no Independent Content whatsoever, all of the information in the article concerning this company is provided by company executives (quotations/interviews) or the company themselves (number of units shipped, funding amounts raised, number of apps, etc). Fails WP:ORGIND
- This from The Telegraph and this from Tech Crunch are entirely based on company announcements - one talks about the launch one of the company's products and the other talks about their announcement of upcoming layoffs. Fails WP:ORGIND.
- This from VentureBeat is one of many articles in different publications all based on the joint announcement and dated from June 19/20 2019. Fails WP:ORGIND.
- This from The Guardian and this from The Telegraph barely mentions the company but primarily information on the product which isn't the subject of this article, therefore fails WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND
- While lots of articles mentioning Kano can be found, they invariably are based entirely on information provided by the company or are reviews of one of their products. Topic fails GNG/NNCORP. HighKing++ 16:06, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete all - Wikipedia is not a crystal ball and not the place for product rumors (see section 5 of WP:CRYSTAL). -KAP03 (Talk • Contributions • Email) 17:27, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- OK, please keep the page up for another two weeks. Apple is going to announce this product pretty soon, so it'd be useless to delete this page only to resurrect it when Apple announces it. Please reply. -◊PRAHLADBalaji 18:31, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Whether it's two weeks or two months is irrelevant. My answer here is still the same:
There is nothing you can do to satisfy WP:CRYSTALBALL short of Apple announcing and releasing the product and secondary sources becoming available to support an article
. —Locke Cole • t • c 18:41, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Whether it's two weeks or two months is irrelevant. My answer here is still the same:
- OK then. Go ahead and delete the article. I have a copy of it saved in my userspace. When the time is ripe, I'll put it out. -◊PRAHLADBalaji 18:48, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. major products like this which are well along in production are normally discussed in advance, just like unreleased films that have entered principal photography . It should be possible to find many other references. The main question is the exact name that the product will have when it is released, but thearticle can be moved if necessary. DGG ( talk ) 23:48, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete all When it's announced, create it. Don't until then. We're not MacRumors. No prejudice to a switch to keep when it hits the (likely for good reason for now) virtual streets. Nate • (chatter) 23:53, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- Comment @Locke Cole: Just letting you know that all of the redirects will be speedy deleted per WP:CSD#G8 when the article iPhone SE (2020) is deleted (as redirects pointing to a non-existent page) so there is not really a point to nominating them here. -KAP03 (Talk • Contributions • Email) 18:32, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks. =) I know from prior AFD's they can be overlooked sometimes. And given the number of inbound redirects, it kind of drives the point of WP:CRYSTALBALL being violated. —Locke Cole • t • c 19:19, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- It's no longer just the rumor sites, but , for example, Forbes: spence, Ewan (April 3, 2020). "Apple Loop: New iPhone SE Exposed, Stunning iPhone 12 Leaks, Apple Swiftly Shuts Down Android App". Forbes., CNET: Orellana, Vanessa Hand (April 7, 2020). "iPhone 12 'supercycle' could make 2020 a big year for Apple". cnet. .Does this suffice, Locke Cole , KAP03 , Mrschimpf ? DGG ( talk ) 20:55, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment @DGG: I would say that until the iPhone SE (2020) or whatever it is called is launched any information regarding it would still be rumors. Also, the articles you listed still are based on rumors meaning the articles should still be deleted. -KAP03 (Talk • Contributions • Email) 21:38, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- when responsible journalists for major national publications report them, then we can also. I understand the general reason for not making articles too early, and a month ago I would have agreed that too little definite information has been published. (and I'm a little curious about will be published tomorrow or the next day). Waiting for the official announcement is following the timeline of the company PR people; we should rather follow reputable journalists. DGG ( talk ) 22:26, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- @DGG: Thank you for those additional sources. As a compromise I would be open to draftifying IPhone SE (2020) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) until something concrete is announced. I still stand by my prior Delete on IPhone 12 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (and related redirects). —Locke Cole • t • c 23:04, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

- Draftify iPhone SE (2020) as the device is likely to be imminently released. I can foresee the existing content and sources to remain in some form in a future article about the device; supply-chain issues surrounding it and its delayed release are relevant, encyclopedic information that would still merit mention after the device has been released. Delete iPhone 12 as the product is in all likelihood not going to be released anytime soon; most rumors point to it as a product to be released in a few months, and more info on the device is bound to be published to the extent that existing sources are not likely to be useful in a future article. feminist (talk) 16:59, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- I second draftifying. Verizon already accidentally revealed it’s coming out this year in their upgrade plan. ⌚️ (talk) 15:33, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- I agree with draftifying. I third it. Draftifying it is the best way to go, since this phone is going to be released soon. -◊PRAHLADBalaji 21:37, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
- Draftify both. Unless they're actually released, they don't warrant an article. At the same time, let's not pour water on the creator's efforts by deleting them. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 14:11, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Fails WP:NMOTORSPORT and WP:GNG. Two of the four sources are dead links that probably led to series press releases and the other two sources are routine directory-style entries that do not establish notability. Best, Willsome429 (say hey or see my edits!) 17:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete all three. All articles have sources that are press releases, thus don't meet the GNG. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 17:53, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Brandon Lynn and Eddie Fatscher, Keep OR Draft Tim Richmond. After reading through all three articles, I agree they are short in length and there's not a lot of articles besides press releases out there about all three drivers at the moment.
Brandon Lynn: His article should also be deleted because I never finished the "personal life" section when I first wrote the article a few months ago, so it looks incomplete and lacking enough info. Plus, he doesn't have a ride so far this year.
Eddie Fatscher: This article looks a little more complete than Lynn's, but again, the sources are all press releases copied and pasted into all these different racing websites (not new, original articles that explain their background and successes). Fatscher also did not race in ARCA or another series in 2019.
Tim Richmond: On the other hand, unlike Lynn and Fatscher, Richmond is currently a full-time competitor in the series. Luckily, one of the dead links was web archived before the ARCA website remodel (when the article was lost), and it was actually not a press release. Richmond also had a road racing career before coming to ARCA, and that's not in his article right now, so maybe we draft it and then add it back when it looks more complete? Do you guys think that one archived article is enough to keep it or draft it? Regardless of what we do, we'd need to get more sources that aren't from the ARCA website about him. I think Willsome, you told me in the past that it's not the best thing if all the sources about a driver come from the ARCA site only. Let me know your thoughts.

- Delete Lynn and Fatscher for sure. I want to lean weak keep on Richmond because it seems as if he's established himself as a full-timer (or at least he would be right now if not for the situation), although I am concerned about a lack of outside sources from the ARCA website.

I believe Axford fails GNG by herself. The references used are all interviews and I cannot find in-depth information on her. Her husband may also fail as well. The criteria under WP:ENTERTAINER requires multiple notable and significant roles and I believe she fails this as well. I suggest either deletion or redirect to Hot Date.

- Delete. Fails WP:GNG and appears to fail WP:NACTOR. Ladonna Compson appears to be a minor character, having only appeared in 12 episodes over six years, according to IMDb. Tina Kwee appears to be her most notable role. The character is listed as a main character in Detentionaire#Main_characters, but from her IMDb page it looks like she was only in two of the show's four seasons. Not enough to meet NACTOR. userdude 20:02, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: IMDb is questionable in general, but for animated series in particular it is often downright unreliable. @User:UserDude: If you check the later episodes you're referring to, you'll see that almost no voice actors at all are credited for them – sadly a very common situation for cartoons on that site. In fact, Tina is not only a major character in all four seasons, but actually grows in prominence throughout the series, up to and including the finale. Modernponderer (talk) 07:33, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete: Per John Pack Lambert. non-notable issues and unsourced subject. I have no problem removing IMDb as an unreliable reference. The use in the "External links" section, as a back-door reference, does not make the site any less unreliable nor the article any more sourced, since a source must be reliable. It might have worked at one point but not recently that I know of. I don't have a problem with the use of IMDb (especially comtemt from the WGA), just not the inundation of every related article, regardless if the site offers
a unique resource beyond what the article would contain if it became a featured article. In other words, the site should not merely repeat information that is already or should be in the article

- Keep: The subject had significant roles in a few TV productions, and though it's difficult to gauge the notability and popularity of those shows, there is probably enough to scrape through under WP:NACTOR. At newspapers.com, there are many newspaper clippings which provide coverage that exceeds mere mentions. Here are a couple of sources; the second is more in-depth than the first: here and here. I think that, with some work, the article could meet, or get close to meeting, WP:GNG. I'd welcome any feedback from other voters, including Dl2000, Chris.sherlock and John Pack Lambert.

- Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can actually find stronger sources. I'll grant that there are roles here that have the potential to pass WP:NACTOR if they were sourced properly, but the mere having of roles is not in and of itself an exemption from having to have reliable sources. However, if we assume that the two clips listed above are the best sources Dflaw4 could find, then the ability to find two short blurbs in the TV listings (which, depending on the publication, did routinely used to run random infoboxes like that which gave a brief blurb's worth of information about a cast member in a show that was airing that day) just isn't enough all by itself.

- Draftify per WP:TOOSOON. At this point, it lacks significant coverage, but Apple will be releasing this and it will be notable once they do so. Might as well keep it in the draft space for now so that the article can be continually improved as more reliable sources become available. I don't think this is an example of WP:CRYSTAL, since it is almost guaranteed that this product will be released and will be notable then, whereas CRYSTAL states "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place." I believe this would qualify. At this point, it isn't just speculation. Reputable sources, including Forbes,[1] have written about it. --PuzzledvegetableIs it teatime already? 17:17, 28 June 2020 (UTC) + minor edit --PuzzledvegetableIs it teatime already? 15:14, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

- That comment doesn't make any sense at all? Whose competing with who? We're here to build an encyclopaedia so we do what is best for that, which means not deleting encyclopaedic content, regardless of whether that somehow "rewards" someone for writing an encyclopaedia article before someone else thinks they should. This article currently contains a mix of encyclopaedic and non-encyclopaedic information, the correct response to that is to trim out the non-encyclopaedic material not to delete all of it and spend time assuming bad faith of those who disagree. Thryduulf (talk) 19:01, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
- As there is, at present, no encyclopedic content worthy of an article per WP:GNG, this should be an easy Delete for you then. Also, it makes sense if you consider there are editors out there who like the idea of being able to claim they "started" an article. That was what my race comparison was meant to convey... I do not feel we should reward editors who jump the gun and ignore well established policy against rumors and speculation by letting them have that. —Locke Cole • t • c 04:57, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
- Have you even read anything other people are saying? Given that I've explicitly said multiple times that this article contains encyclopedic content that is enough for at least a section on an article and, that, with other material out there there might be enough for an article that you can somehow interpret that as you have. I really could not care less whether some editors like to claim they started an article because it is entirely irrelevant - unless your motivation for this deletion is so that in a few weeks you can recreate it and claim that credit? I hope that's wrong because it would be disruptively petty if it were. What matters is that we give the readers the encyclopaedic content they are looking for in the best way possible, regardless of who started an article, when they started it or what their motivation for starting it was.

- As Foxnpichu pointed out below, this article is necessarily going to be recreated. Regardless of whether or not this article should have been created in the first place, once it is already in existence, there is no reason to delete it. This has nothing to do with rewarding past behavior. That's not how we work here. No one is competing for points, and no one is trying to win a competition.

- Keep or merge. Trim to just what is available in the reliable sources and add prose based on that. Much of this is not speculation but encyclopaedic reporting of notable speculation by reliable sources about a product that will definitely exist and is guaranteed to be notable.

(talk) 22:02, 3 July 2020 (UTC)It is not a violation of WP:CRYSTAL to report notable speculation by reliable sources, and most of this article is just that.
- Delete, or if you prefer more colourful language; Burn it with fire. This is absolutely a violation of WP:TOOSOON/WP:CRYSTAL based on unverified speculation in dubious niche sources; none of which is encyclopedic information until, at the very least, we get an official statement from the manufacturer. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 02:52, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per above. To respond briefly to the argument about it not being a violation of WP:CRYSTAL: I could reasonably see that perhaps speculation of this sort might be notable in iPhone. It's absolutely not notable enough for its own article. Nothing about this is officially known - including its very existence - so, unless and until it alone meets WP:V, it fails the first sentence of CRYSTAL in my view.
Wikipedia is not a collection of unverifiable speculation or presumptions.

Article about a company, written more like a PR profile in a business directory than an encyclopedia article and not referenced to any evidence of reliable source coverage in real media to establish that it would pass WP:CORP: until I stripped them as WP:ELNO violations, the only "references" present here at all were offsite links, sitting directly out in body text instead of footnoting anything, to parts of the company's own self-published website about itself. As always, however, the notability test that a company has to pass to get a Wikipedia article is not just that its own website technically verifies that the company exists -- a company has to be the subject of significant and non-trivial journalistic coverage in real media, in order to establish that its activity and accomplishments have been deemed worthy of attention by sources independent of its own public relations department.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Completely unreferenced article about a topic, written much more like a WP:HOWTO guide than an encyclopedia article. Wikipedia is not WikiHow, so the key to getting a topic like this in the door is not just to write a step-by-step guide to the process that's completely unsupported by any sources — what would be needed is an article that contextualized it with properly sourced independent analysis about it. For one thing, not all "campus placement" follows exactly the same process across the board: there can be regional variances in different locations, the process can change depending on the nature and needs of different employers and industries, and on and so forth, which is an example of the kind of thing that a properly written article would need to note and source. Furthermore, this has been flagged for both referencing and basic notability issues since 2010, without ever having seen any significant improvement on either front. I am, of course, willing to consider withdrawing this if somebody can actually repair the article with real sources and an encyclopedic tone, but after a decade in this state it's time to call the question.

- Comment I stubbified the page. My informal impression is that "campus placement" is a more common term in India while "campus recruitment" is more so in the United States. Either way, it seems a worthwhile topic to cover — "how do college students get jobs" is obviously of social significance — although most of the sources turned up in a casual search are marketing glurge.

- Comment Well, why don't we kill both articles then merge it all into Recruitment? I mean, I guess since we're involving other articles, it's technically outside the scope of AfD, but what's special about college recruitment? I agree that the concept "how people (college students) get jobs" is notable, but is it notable separate and apart from recruiting people in general? Instead of having a random job fair or random ads, you place those fairs/ads within a university. That's not some unique, novel concept that needs its own wiki page. erc talk/contribs 15:41, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- I have no strong feelings about that one way or the other, but I suspect that there are enough details peculiar to recruitment at colleges specifically that a separate page is not a bad idea. For example, allowing the military to recruit on campus may be more controversial than their having recruiting offices downtown. XOR'easter (talk) 16:13, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

The first sentence talks about how Zymo, along with the other companies in this article, has developed a home testing kit. The second sentence describes the contents of the kit. The next paragraph, sentence three, is a statement from Marc Van Eden, VP of Business Development at Zymo, where he says that Zymo passes the samples to a lab for processing. The final sentence is Marc saying that the lab can process the samples in 24 hours but they're waiting for FDA approval.

- Delete I am unable to locate any significant coverage with in-depth information on the company and containing independent content. The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations as per WP:NCORP is for multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". Also, "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.

Insufficient notability Hawol (talk) 15:48, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
I am the creator of this article and I now see that I was a bit too optimistic about its notability. This is a tiny field of Transpersonal Studies that has shown little or no development since its beginning. The field has produced a very small amount of literature, and there is hardly any new literature. The article is based mainly on primary references, only a few of the references are secondary. I did a thorough literature search and was not able to establish any more references for this article than the few references given.

- Keep: while the nominator/creator may well be right that the field has had little impact, that's an intrinsically difficult standard to judge, which is why whenever possible we prefer to determine notability on the basis of whether significant coverage in reliable sources exists. In this case it seems to me that such coverage does exist in the form of the 2013 special issue of the International Journal of Transpersonal Studies and the earlier Greenwood article (as well as probably the Boucouvalas article, though I'm not able to access that). As I mentioned at the article talk page, distinguishing between primary and secondary sources in articles about academic fields and disciplines is difficult and sometimes counterproductive – we're bound to cite theorists who played a pivotal role in the development of an idea, and that isn't at all the same thing as citing a band's website or a company's press releases. If there isn't a consensus to keep this it should be merged into Transpersonal#Transpersonal studies. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 14:41, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- I don't have a good grasp of Wikipedia policy on such matters. I would be glad to be advised on it.
- I don't recall exactly, but for a decade or two I have attended annual meetings of the Samuel Griffith Society. There are perhaps 100 members present at each meeting. The meetings are held in the capital cities of the states of Australia, and in Canberra, the national capital, in rotation. They meetings last two days, with papers presented during the days, perhaps 45 minutes each, including discussion. The papers are by judges and scholars who are interested in the Australian Constitution. I think the papers are substantial and notable. Each year, the papers are published in a volume of the Society's proceedings. Each member of the Society receives a hard copy of each volume. Some thirty volumes have been published.
- I attended a special general meeting of the Society in Melbourne on 12 March 2020.
- To me, it would seem absurd to delete from Wikipedia the article on the Samuel Griffith Society. I am at this moment unable to provide secondary sources on the topic, but that may just mean that I don't read them if they exist. I will try to follow this up.Chjoaygame (talk) 22:21, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
- To the contrary, Jlevi, the Samuel Griffith Society has been referred to regularly in Australian media. See eg: The Canberra Times from December 2019, referring to its receipt of tax deductible gift recipient status (https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/6546429/politically-favoured-think-tank-gets-tax-deductible-status-and-vegan-group-loses-it/), The Australian from February 2020 referring to the Society in the context of debate about judicial appointments in Australia (https://www.theaustralian.com.au/inquirer/judging-the-high-courts-justices/news-story/6c819b096c60180d761d0ca9ab38b2eb), and The Monthly referring to a speech given by former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott at a recent Samuel Griffith Society conference (https://www.themonthly.com.au/blog/dominic-kelly/2016/17/2016/1471402108/privilege-and-its-discontents). Perhaps the article may need to be updated, but there does not appear to be any lack of relevant secondary sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.102.37.133 (talk) 04:18, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
- Great! I'm paywalled on a few of those sources, so it makes it hard for me to properly evaluate their implications for notability for the organization (WP:ORGCRITE), but this makes me much more confident that there is sufficient material to establish notability. Though I cannot do so at this moment, it should be much easier to make an argument to retain this article, since the sources just need to exist (WP:NEXIST). No worries if this is too much work for you, but it would be very useful if you could find the two best sources possible to verify claims of notability. Thank you so much for adding these statements! Jlevi (talk) 19:03, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
- Weak delete In short, I could not find any significant IRS about the subject. However, there are many mentions of the subject in the context of academia, politics, and social policy, etc. It would be possible to build an article, possibly better than a start-class, but it would require significant work and such perhaps could be argued to border on SYNTH or OR. If someone can find a couple of good IRS about the subject I could be convinced to change my !vote to keep. Aoziwe (talk) 08:38, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

- Hi all, this has been brought to my attention and I am happy to do some work adding additional content and sources to the existing article. As has been established by the previous discussion, there are numerous secondary sources that refer to the Society and its ongoing activities, establishing its notability in Australia as an organisation led by both a former High Court Justice and a Vice President of the Commonwealth Executive Council. I am a new user, so I will need some assistance with some of the terms referred to by Aoziwe (WP:IRS, WP:OR, WP:SYNTH) - I couldn't find any references to these terms in either the AfD or general Wikipedia glossaries. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks XavierBoffa (talk) 06:21, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Fails WP:NALBUM. Another in the series of articles by the editor creating articles related to Alessandro Del Vecchio, and another which fails notability. Has been redirected twice, but the creator has reverted the redirect without explanation or improvement, so this now has to be discussed at AfD. The sources from Blabbermouth are simply advance press announcements of the album's release, as is this article from Brave Words [22], but there don't appear to be any articles from reliable sources reviewing or discussing the album after its release. The Belgian Rock Report is a press release provided by the record company (it says so at the bottom). The Sonic Perspectives review is by a fan writing on a non-RS website that solicits CDs for review. Possibly the only thing that comes close to being an RS is Metal Temple but this looks like a worldwide community rather than professional journalists... and anyway, it's only one review, not the multiple sources required to pass notability. The other sources are blogs, Discogs, and the record company's website. I can't find any other reliable sources discussing the album in-depth. Richard3120 (talk) 20:06, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

- This has been explained to you at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kee of Hearts (album), but you still don't seem to get it. I know very well who Joe Lynn Turner is, and the famous bands he has been in throughout his career. But that does not mean everything he is involved in is automatically notable, as stated in WP:INHERITED. Not even every record by the Beatles is notable. Every record has to be notable on its own terms, being reviewed or discussed in depth in reliable sources per WP:NALBUM, to qualify for its own Wikipedia article. Richard3120 (talk) 14:41, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
- I have further updated the article with reliable sources such as Blabbermouth, BraveWords and Fireworks (Rocktopia).

- Sorry, but the sources from Blabbermouth and Brave Words are still nothing more than announcements of forthcoming releases, they don't demonstrate notability. They are also clearly press releases provided by the record company, not by journalists of those publications, because they use exactly the same wording in each article. So they aren't independent. Rocktopia might be the only source so far in the whole article that would pass as an RS – certainly none of the others do. Richard3120 (talk) 14:42, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

- It would have been a good idea to actually check the reliability of the sources before you made your vote, because then you would have seen that at best only one of the four reviews in the table come from reliable sources, and the sources that are reliable, such as Brave Words and Blabbermouth, are simply press announcements by the record label of forthcoming releases, they don't show that the album is notable.

- @Kekkofranco~enwiki: It may be your opinion that these are reliable sources, but we've had discussions on these and similar hard rock websites in the past, and the consensus has been that these are just blogs written by fans, not professional journalists.

Rocktopia (Fireworks), Metal Heads Forever and also Metal Temple are present in many other important album articles on this wikipedia. In addition, I also found important feedback for The Rocktologist magazine. Sonic Perspectives also has a certain authority, otherwise they would not make interviews with important artists such as Eric Peterson of Testament. Kekkofranco~enwiki (talk) 11:30, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
- The fact they are present in other articles is a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument and in no way proves they are notable sources. Even school fanzines can (and do) have interviews with famous rock stars, so that means zero, really, in terms of how authoritative they are. Richard3120 (talk) 15:45, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Second proposed deletion, now through AFD. The article still fails WP:NB. All the references were previously primary sources/self-published. Now the page creator has updated the article with three secondary sources, one from Bulgarian National Radio website and two from HUGE.BG. The latter of which likely fails WP:RS. I'll remind again that this same page was created on Bulgarian Wikipedia (see bg:Не казвай на мама) and was speedy deleted for similar reasons (sources / advertisting).

Semi-advertorialized article about a band, with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC and no strong reliable source coverage to support an article. The strongest notability claim here is that they were named to a minor music trade magazine's listicle of 100 "hot unsigned bands" -- but this is not a notability-clinching "award" in and of itself, and even the listicle doesn't contain any information about the band beyond a simple namecheck of their existence. And as for sourcing, the 21 footnotes here also include eight entries in non-notable and unreliable blogs, four YouTube videos, five directory entries that verify the existence of songs without containing any independently-written critical content about the songs, and one completely tangential magazine article that serves to support a very general statement about human mental health without even mentioning this band at all in conjunction with it. Which means that 19 of the 21 sources here are doing nothing at all in terms of establishing that the band is notable enough for a Wikipedia article -- and of the two that are from real, reliable source media, one is a "local man does stuff" human interest piece in the local newspaper of the guitarist's own hometown and the other is a Q&A interview in which the band is speaking about themselves in the first person on a smalltown local radio station, which doesn't add up to enough coverage to get them over WP:GNG if it's the best you can do. As always, bands are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist: they have to have a notability claim that passes NMUSIC, and they have to have real reliable source coverage in real media to support an article, but nothing here meets either of those conditions yet.

This concern is still valid as the current sources are mostly links to songs (not independent and not reliable) and to unreliable blogs. -KAP03 (Talk • Contributions • Email) 17:44, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- Comment - This is not an article about a film, it is an article that summarises key points about three films in a franchise. Thus, it is expected that it would contain content found in the individual articles and thus, WP:NFILM may not be relevant here. Note also how List of Star Trek films and television series addresses the franchise, with summaries of content found in other articles. Not every article subject requires independent notability. For instance, would we need to establish a TV series' list of episodes as independently notable in order to branch off a list article? Of course not. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:09, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- This is bound to happen because of the same film titles. It is "passing mention" to the series, not significant coverage. The most important thing here is, they are not even sequels. They are just random films containing similar star cast, and titles. The stories are differet, and even the characters portrayed by actors are different. Like Cyphoidbomb observed above; all other franchises/film-TV series have something in common. Not this film series. This film series is not mentioned anywhere out of press releases. This article is a content fork, and all the information is already covered in individual film articles. In the lead (and/or somewhere else in the article) it can be clearly stated "X was followed by Y, and Z". "Y was preceded by X, and followed by Z", and so on. There is no connection between films, no story continued, so we dont need article from that angle/requirement either (like we can explain continuity in "episodes" or "seasons" articles). —usernamekiran (talk) 20:04, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Film series typically have their own article on Wikipedia. No reason why this one should be different because it is less "important" than another series. Happy Evil Dude (talk) 15:31, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
- Because it is not actually a film series. This is very well explained by usernamekiran above. - The9Man (Talk) 09:48, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
- The stories being unrelated and the characters being different does not make it "not a film series" (see the Cornetto trilogy or the Revenge trilogy for example). The three films share the same producers, same stars, same themes, same titling scheme,... It's a film series. Happy Evil Dude (talk) 10:16, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

- from an interview with star Tusshar Kapoor: "It’s the third part of the Kya Kool Hai Hum trilogy, the first adult comedy franchise in India, and it’s an exciting film for me because it’s been projected as India’s first p-rn com". From an interview with 3rd film star Aftab Shivdasani: "The film is the third film in the franchise, and it’s got nothing to do with the story of the first and second film.". The films have been discussed as a trilogy by reputable, reliable outlets such as Mint, The Express Tribune and FirstPost. Coverage in India has been significant. Enough.

- @Happy Evil Dude: interviews, and press releases are not considered as significant coverage.

- Keep - It is correct that interviews and press releases don't confer notability. However, I'm not convinced that the series needs to have secondary coverage specifically about the fact that it is a series in order for there to be a page for the series. It would seem that the series has notability if each individual episode is notable enough for an article. And I disagree with the idea that there needs to be a common story for it to be a series; it is common for a series to have different plots throughout its episodes, with actors playing different roles in each episode. As an example, take the series American Horror Story; each season has a different plot and the actors play different characters. The stories don't necessarily have anything to do with each other. However, it is still clearly a series, as you can tell by the fact that the same people are involved and the titles imply a series. Here, you have three titles implying a series (How Cool We Are > How Super Cool We Are > How Cool We Are 3) and many of the same people working on the movies. It's clearly a series, each episode is notable, I don't see why we wouldn't allow a page for this. Ikjbagl (talk) 02:54, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

The subject of this article fails WP:GNG, WP:POLITICIAN and WP:ANYBIO. References 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10 all count as one source (Leadership newspaper) and are not independent of the subject. The Leadership source cannot count towards notability because the subject is the publishing director for the newspaper. The remaining sources cited in the article do not discuss the subject. The article contains lengthy quotes about statements the subject made. If you extract all the lengthy quotes and the subject's long list of mentors, all that's left is his position within the Leadership organization and his unsuccessful stint for the APC president position. These two pieces of information about the subject are not enough to warrant a separate article. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 14:15, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete — The formula is usually “in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the article’s subject” most of the reliable sources present in the article are not independent of the subject & like the nominator already said, that really does next to nothing to substantiate notability claims made in the article. @F5pillar, you understand this right?Celestina007 (talk) 10:14, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete and/or draftify. As noted, more than half of the sources here come from the subject's own employer rather than an independent source, which means they aren't notability makers — and of the six sources left once we discount those, we can drop another four: two blurbs, a one-off glancing namecheck of his existence in an article about somebody else and a piece of his own bylined writing about another subject. That leaves us with just two references that are both independent of him and non-trivially about him, but that's not enough to get him over WP:GNG. Bearcat (talk) 00:52, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete – There needs to be evidence that she's gotten enough coverage to meet WP:BASIC. (I think she probably technically meets WP:NACTOR due to being a co-lead on Maggie & Bianca: Fashion Friends, and for being in the cast of TV series previous to that, but meeting WP:BASIC/WP:GNG is actually the metric that matters for WP:BLPs.)

- Keep She meets WP:NACTOR with her main role in Maggie & Bianca, and she has gotten coverage in Italian papers: ANSA, Note, la Repubblica. (There are also a lot of news articles to source her other roles like this that don't go in-depth as those.) Unfortunately the article was created without any sourcing and poor translations. TheFallenPower (talk) 15:07, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: WP:ENT is definitely made out, in my opinion. Aside from her role in Maggie & Bianca: Fashion Friends, the subject has had significant recurring roles in a number of other Italian shows. (Claiming that WP:GNG was not made out would have been a better reason for nomination, I think—but sources have been identified above.) Dflaw4 (talk) 12:31, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

This is a biased (fails WP:NPOV) article that attempts to legitimize a non notable group of stock manipulators and, by doing so, the article itself is part of a securities fraud online manipulation strategy known as short and distort. The article creator and major contributor — QRep2020 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic and appears to be closely tied to the subject of the article, TSLAQ. All edits to the article from several different editors that talk about this group’s controversies, including how this group has a history of spreading rumors and false information, are immediately reverted by the clearly biased article creator.

- Nothing stated above is true; there is no evidence that TSLAQ engages in short and distort, I'm not closely tied to the subject (I am not part of TSLAQ, I am researching it), and there have been plenty of edits that have been left or discussed at length before being kept on the entry. I haven't seen a single well-thought argument on this page as to why TSLAQ should be deleted, just flagrant assertions. QRep2020 (talk) 15:14, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep There is no reason for this entry to be removed as the topic AND article as it was prior to the arguable vandalism conducted by Iamchinahand has been subject to much revision and discussion by myself, Phyronian (talk • contribs), User:Licentiatus (talk • contribs), and Schazjmd (talk • contribs) at Talk:TSLAQ; in fact, if you look at Phyronian's profile, the user appears to be solely interested in making sure the entry's language is not overtly supportive or approving of TSLAQ. All of the sources used on the article come from third-party reliable publications that themselves refer to authoritative/ primary sources. Iamchinahand (talk) has absolutely no proof besides articles which are emotively and not factually based that "securities fraud" is being conducted by anyone who has contributed to the article or the group that is the subject of the entry. Please remove this deletion request as I strongly urge the Wikipedia editors at large to keep and I ask that Iamchinahand (talk) be investigated for behaving in a manner that has no place at Wikipedia. Thank you. QRep2020 (talk) 21:41, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
I did make my account to work on the TSLAQ article, as I believed there were important changes I wanted to implement on the article. I am not affiliated with TSLAQ, and I do not support the group's actions. Anyone can look at my edit history on the TSLAQ article and see that I have only wanted transparency on the actions of TSLAQ, many of which were opposed by QRep2020 for reasons I thought were illegitimate, again all documented in the talk section of the article. Phyronian (talk) 17:35, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Phyronian: I now see your attempted edits to the article clearly and how they were all reverted by User:QRep2020. Please feel free to add your vote to this AfD as you seem to clearly understand the situation with this article. Iamchinahand (talk) 06:32, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- Clearly Iamchinahand (talk) did not even bother to read the rather robust TSLAQ Talk page as the user removed contributions from numerous editors who discussed their updates at length. This call for deletion is really rather unsubstantiated and likely for biased reasons. I'd also like to add that this particular entry has been repeatedly vandalized in the past and that if one examines the article's update history what is happening now looks very similar to what has happened in the past. QRep2020 (talk) 19:22, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Author of article claiming any other viewpoint is so-called "vandalism" furthers claim that this is a biased author and a poorly written article. The author reverts any edits, including edits from User:Tintdepotcom (User:Tinting2020) and User:Cihwcihw, that include mention of the major controversies of this group. This is a malicious group that will do anything to hurt Tesla, Inc. and Elon Musk (CEO of Tesla) for financial gains under the false-cover that they are "anti-fraud". The article is written in a fashion that gives credibility to what many believe to be a very malicious group without any mention of the group's serious controversy. Anyone that reads the articles talk page can see that the subject of the article is a malicious group. It is also apparent that the author of the article goes to great lengths to try to appear to be neutral and unaffiliated with the group in his so-called "Statement of Neutrality and Non-involvement". This is very fishy. I don't believe this article is worthy of a Wikipedia entry. Unless this article is rewritten to include more than the one completely biased viewpoint, it will be deleted. Iamchinahand (talk) 04:35, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I urge the editors above to read WP:Introduction to deletion process and WP:Deletion is not cleanup, and review WP:AFDFORMAT. I also encourage the editors above to read WP:THREAD and learn to format their talk page comments properly. Third, WP:Comment on content, not on the contributor. Schazjmd (talk) 14:17, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Schazjmd: This article should be deleted because it fails WP:NPOV, a fundamental principle of Wikipedia. The article can not be "cleaned up" because the article's creator reverts any edits that would make the article meet these guidelines. Further, the article's creator claims "vandalism" with all attempted edits to make the article satisfy the NPOV guidelines. Iamchinahand (talk) 15:20, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Iamchinahand, you're not making your case to me, I'm not the decider. I was trying to gently point out that this AFD is a mess. Schazjmd (talk) 16:02, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Iamchinahand, if that is the case then the article creator needs to be addressed, rather than the article itself be deleted. We have plenty of mechanisms for dealing with such actions, which include blocking of editors and protection of articles, but not deletion of articles on notable subjects. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:14, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Firstly, I have yet to see any evidence or argument in the AfD discussion as to the article's perspective being non-neutral beyond saying it is "apparent" (as in either somehow the perspective taken in the article is self-evident or known via intuition). Secondly, the claim that TSLAQ should somehow not be intellectually represented because they are allegedly "malicious" and conduct "security fraud" is irrelevant for the very reason previously given though misconstrued: Wikipedia houses reference to individuals, groups, organizations, etc. of all types, manner, focus, etc. and takes no normative position as to how "bad" or "good" the referents behave or are by nature. Finally, for now, these claims have been waged before on the TSLAQ talk page and were answered and discharged; as the article has not changed substantially since said dialog, the initial claims continue to possess no merit. QRep2020 (talk) 21:41, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- I'd also like to add that on Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup it reads: "If the subject of an article has been proven to pass notability guidelines, there is no need for a deletion discussion". Given the various third-party major news articles on the topic, the previous discussion on Talk: TSLAQ, and the fact that the article has been live for months now, one can conclude that it passes the notability guidelines. Therefore, there's no need for this or any deletion discussion. When can this discussion be closed at the earliest and is there anything that can be done to prevent it from happening again? QRep2020 (talk) 03:03, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- I don't know why my recent contribution was deleted. I simply stated my argument and provided a hyperlink to evidence of TSLAQ activity. Who is behind this deletion effort? Why don't they post specifications for what they would like to see done to the article? There is plenty of evidence. There is a phenomenon to be described. Is there some wikipedia rule that objects or situations have to be five or more years old to be described in Wikipedia? Who are you and what is nature of the problem? Just because you are more conversant with Wikipedia formatting, does not mean you should exercise dictatorial deletions. The age of fable (talk) 14:50, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

- Comment WP:NOTADVOCACY clearly explains why this page should not exist in the Wikipedia encyclopedia. According to WP:N, a topic is presumed to merit an article only if it is not excluded under the What Wikipedia is not policy. According to Wikipedia, "Advocacy is the use of Wikipedia to promote personal beliefs or agendas..." and is not permitted under WP:NOT. The article is written in a non-neutral fashion with several cherry picked tidbits that attempt to give credibility to a group that some, if not many, people would say is a very malicious group of individuals. The way the article is currently written is comparable to writing an article about a "terrorist group" and positioning the group solely as “freedom fighters”. Both sides strongly believe their view of the group as being correct. The article creator may truly believe that the edits that he has been reverting from several different editors are inappropriate for the article. This is normal for advocates. The creator of the article's username is 'Q' (from TSLAQ), 'Rep' (short for representative), '2020'. The "Q" in TSLAQ stands for bankruptcy. Every single reference that the article uses talks about TSLAQ as a "group of short-sellers" (those who benefit from a stock price dropping); however, the first line of the article states that TSLAQ is simply a "group...who primarily organize...in order to share news, openly discuss matters concerning the company and its stock, and coordinate efforts" (no mention of short-sellers). Some other examples of non-neutrality in the article (1) group type labeled "fraud deterrence" (2) Under 'Hothi Allegations & Crowdfunding', Mr. Hothi's side of the story is written innocently and as if it is factual, while Tesla's side is written as 'allegations' (3) The article talks about Tesla being the most shorted stock, while legitimately referenced edits to include how investors that shorted Tesla stock lost $5 billion in a two-day period were reverted. This following article explains more about one view of this group's activities that are not included in the article - https://cleantechnica.com/2019/03/06/jim-cramer-explains-how-short-sellers-manipulate-stocks-like-tesla-tsla/ I also urge editors interested in this subject to search Twitter and Reddit for "TSLAQ" to see for yourselves what this group is really doing. The TSLAQ article does not belong on Wikipedia. Iamchinahand (talk) 11:12, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- The solution to every problem is not article deletion. This article has plenty of problems, but the way to fix them is by editing the article, with, as I said above, the admin tools of blocking and protection being available if editors don't follow policy and talk-page consensus. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:22, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- How does one go about properly writing/editing a Wikipedia article about an anonymous online disinformation organization that has convinced some (including some in the media) that it is legitimate? Is there a Wikipedia page that explains best practices? Iamchinahand (talk) 12:25, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- In the same way that we go about writing any Wikipedia article: by basing it on what is written about the subject in independent reliable sources. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:48, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- That would be great if it was that simple, but disinformation aimed at the media causes unknowing media to write about it as if it is the truth (see Short and distort). This disinformation reported by media then becomes an "independent reliable source" that can easily be manipulated on Wikipedia. In fact, one of the authors that the TSLAQ article references, Linette Lopez from Business Insider, allegedly lost her job because of low quality reporting on Tesla. Again, we are talking about an anonymous online group. For normal topics, I agree that we just need independent reliable sources. This article does not belong on Wikipedia. Iamchinahand (talk) 13:11, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- The media, outlets like CNBC, LATimes.com, Wired, Bloomberg.com, is spreading disinformation? Seriously? Assuming that is the case - which it isn't by a long-shot - what exactly is the "disinformation" that these world-renowned publications are spreading? Also, where does it state that online anonymous groups are not allowed to be featured on Wikipedia? QAnon details an anonymous online group and I don't see that page getting tormented.

- Of course you're welcome to propose edits to the article, but why not follow everyone's advice and discuss the proposed changes first in Talk: TSLAQ?

I cannot find any reviews or in-depth mentions of this niche game (there are some a few esoteric blog posts like [26] but blogs are not RS). One reliable book source is cited in the article, but it is not online; in either case a single source is not enough for WP:GNG nor NBOOK, and given that it is used for a simple factoid (designed by... published in...) there is no reason to assume the coverage in Schick (1991) is in-depth. We are not a catalogue of all games or such. At best I think this can redirect to Tom Moldvay, where the game is mentioned (and the Schick ref can be copied there).

SpinningSpark 17:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- I don't know if any of that has happened here, but JSTOR 2551551 says that the entry under this name in the Dictionary of National Biography confuses this Robert Torrens with his cousin, who has the same name, was born in the same year, and also served in the military. We need to make sure we have disentangled them properly. Phil Bridger (talk) 09:42, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

- Comment. This London Gazette page confirms that a Lt Col Robert Torrens of the West India Regiment was awarded the Order of St Anne for his service in the Waterloo campaign. This entry from 1836 refers to a Lt Col Robert Torrens CB. However, there's no indication that this is the same man and I can find no record of anyone by that name being appointed CB. If he did have the CB, then of course he would qualify for an article under WP:ANYBIO, but at the moment there's no concrete evidence of it. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:08, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- Those references are probably about Robert Torrens (economist). Phil Bridger (talk) 10:14, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- I don't think so. He didn't have the CB and wasn't an officer in the West India Regiment, but in the Royal Marines (as confirmed by the LG). He also didn't serve in the Waterloo campaign and wasn't promoted lieutenant-colonel until 1819. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:23, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- This entry in the Commission Book confirms he had a CB and the military history given is distinctly different from that of the economist (for instance, the economist started in the Royal Marines, our man started in the 19th Dragoons.) So I am definitely still at keep. SpinningSpark 10:35, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- This source, which published his Waterloo Letter also says he had a CB—not shown in the snippet I linked, but it says "He was appointed a Companion of the Bath and received the second class of St. Anne of Russia". Note his birth date is given as 1784, not 1780. SpinningSpark 10:51, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

- Check IMDB - in this case just to see the incredible list of notable shows she appeared on. She made appearances on Blue Heelers, Sea Change, Home and Away, All Saints, Wildside, Water Rats, GP, The Flying Doctors and The Young Doctors, all extremely significant Australian dramas, in a different age of Australia.
- It’s probably more helpful to check Trove to find secondary sources given her age - https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/result?q=%22Robyn+Gibbes%22
- What I’m saying is that she satisfies WP:NACTOR. - Chris.sherlock (talk) 16:53, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- I’ve checked Trove and there’s nothing substantial that would indicate notability. A list of credits on IMDB does not indicate notability, and notability can’t be inherited by just appearing in a minor role on a notable programme. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 19:55, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

As for WP:GNG, there are clearly some problems, although here are a couple of sources which may help—the first is a BuzzFeed article, which isn't the most reliable of news outlets, but it isn't the worst, either; and the second is an excerpt from a Variety review of a film, Wild Horses (1984), which provides a much briefer comment on the subject:

- Delete per WP:NFOOTY failure. Number 57 13:12, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- Strong keep. She plays in the top-tier league in Germany. (She has quite a bit of coverage on that basis, too.) That NFOOTY argues for keeping tens of thousands of articles on one-game male players who could not pass GNG in a million years but tries to suggest that top-tier women players aren't notable isn't a problem with the articles or the topics, it's a problem with Wikipedia:WikiProject Football that needs correcting urgently. The Drover's Wife (talk) 20:20, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
- Keep She plays in a top tier league (Frauen-Bundesliga). Meets WP:NFOOTY. End of story. And before anyone comes at me with a claim that most female leagues aren't included, that's because of a major failing of every Wikiproject Football member on every level, whose biases on not documenting women's football is atrocious. SilverserenC 05:23, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- The Frauen-Bundesliga is included at the list of leagues, but is in the list of top-tier leagues that are not fully-professional, so she does not meet WP:NFOOTY. Number 57 13:00, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - fails NFOOTY and GNG. --BlameRuiner (talk) 12:31, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - Article about semi-pro footballer who isn't the subject of significant coverage in online French- or German-language sources. All of the online coverage is routine (database entries, transfer announcements, match reports), so I can't see how this article would satisfy the GNG. Perhaps if Voll features regularly for Sand, things could change but for now its WP:TOOSOON. Jogurney (talk) 13:56, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: On the basis of substantial coverage in German and French newspapers, some of which are included as references, the article certainly qualifies for general notability. You need to do searches with the French and German versions of Google to find all these, not just with the English version. It looks to me as if this and several similar articles about women footballers are being put up for deletion unfairly.--Ipigott (talk) 12:42, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- I searched for online coverage in French- and German-language media, and found very little that I would consider "substantial." I added the most substantial thing I found (from Stadtanzeiger Ortenau) to the article, but online coverage Voll is almost entirely routine. I don't see why it's unfair to invoke the GNG here. Jogurney (talk) 17:13, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- Weak keep - only has a few top level appearances and - since WP:NFOOTY is palpable nonsense - we must look at WP:GNG. I can see both sides but there is evidence of non-routine coverage. I came down on the side of keep, but with this one I can accept that others may like to see a bit more coverage before they commit themselves. Bring back Daz Sampson (talk) 18:50, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
Relisting comment: The keep vote language is very weak with little in the way of genuine sourcing provided. Additional time is allowed to present these, but without I'll close as delete. Simply stating an individual meets GNG is not enough.

- Keep Yes, she plays in the Frauen-Bundesliga which doesn't pass FPL, but just by doing a quick Google search, it obviously passes GNG. It's so cringe seeing everyone say "iT dOeSnT pAsS fPl sO iT dOeSnT pAsS gNg." when GNG takes precedence over FPL. FPL is only used when the player has had little coverage but played in a fully professional league. Literally 75% of the stubs for English, French and Brazilian footballers barely even pass FPL, but would never even pass GNG. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 14:13, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

- So basically what you're saying is profiles of her don't count because they quote her (as profiles generally do), profiles of other players that mention her don't count because they're not profiles of her, and articles that are primarily about her and don't quote her don't count because they're too short? That makes no sense. Articles about subjects frequently quote them, that's perfectly normal, they often also quote people connected to the person they're about, which is also perfectly normal, and if the entire article is only a few paragraphs, it's impossible for it to spend more than a few paragraphs discussing the subject. These sources satisfy GNG, easily. Smartyllama (talk) 21:55, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Smartyllama, I don't think I said that. GNG requires coverage to be significant, addressing the subject "directly and in detail". Do you believe [38] does so? Mdaniels5757 (talk) 23:58, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- You are cherry picking sources. Most of those meet GNG, maybe a couple don't but there's more than enough. Also I was responding to the table above but I have no idea if you posted it because it's unsigned, my apologies for the confusion if it wasn't you. Smartyllama (talk) 00:09, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Smartyllama, Yes, I did forget to sign, it should be fixed now :). Is there a particular source in the table you think meets GNG? Mdaniels5757 (talk) 00:22, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Mdaniels5757, Sources primarily about the subject meet GNG, even if they include quotes from her or people who are connected to her, as long as the sources themselves are independent (i.e. not a team website or something like that.) It is extremely common to include quotes from people in articles, and indeed it would be hard to find an article in a reliable source that didn't have any quotes, so I have no idea what your issue is there. This applies no matter how long or short the article is, though it probably wouldn't apply to something as short as a tweet, even if it were from a reliable source. This gets the following sources past GNG: #1, probably #2, definitely #4, #5, #9, #10, and #11. #3, #6, and #7 are more edge cases, and as you correctly pointed out, #4 and #8 are the same. But still, that's at least six and possibly seven sources. That's more than enough. Smartyllama (talk) 00:29, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Smartyllama, I agree that there's nothing wrong with quoting a subject of the article per se, but, e.g., an "article" that is only a quote from the subject would not be independent (as GNG) requires. Taking #5 (which you said "definitely" passed GNG) as an example, I don't see how it addresses Voll "in detail". #5 is 6 sentences long (plus a twitter embed), and Voll is discussed in only 2 of those sentences. In my view, that is not in enough detail to for the source to count towards GNG. --Mdaniels5757 (talk) 00:59, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
To be clear, the point of the "definitely" wasn't to indicate that that source was particularly strong compared to the others, but to make it clear that the "probably" only applied to #2 and not what came after it. Sorry if that was unclear. Smartyllama (talk) 01:08, 4 April 2020 (UTC)> Mevermind, that ambiguity would only apply to #4, not to #5, which you referenced.

- Comment - I reached the same conclusion as Mdaniels5757 when I reviewed online coverage. I thought the Stadtanzeiger Ortenau article was borderline significant coverage, but it's a regional newspaper with pretty insignificant circulation, so I'd need to see more to satisfy the GNG, and the vavel.com article was the next closest, but it was entirely routine. Jogurney (talk) 02:44, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep as this person passes WP:GNG. I don't know what other people count as significant coverage, but it is pretty clear to me that two paragraphs satisfies it easily.

Among the nine sources in the article:
- 1 is a patent and trademark listing.
- 2 and 3 are directory listings from TV magazines that merely confirm the show's existence.
- 4 only mentions the show in one sentence of an article otherwise dedicated to creepypastas.
- 5 is an interview where some Z-list celebrity mentions the show in passing as something he was scared of.
- 6 is some kind of directory listing that doesn't even mention the show at all.
- 7 and 8 are just listicles from ScreenRant and Cracked that do not cover the show in depth.
- 9 is a subchannel of a YouTube show and therefore not an RS.
In short, the sources present in the article do not in any way verify any sort of notability. Extensive searching on GBooks, American Radio History, and newspapers.com yielded nothing.
The article was previously prodded, deprodded, and then AFD'ed twice back in December, but both times failed to gather consensus due to lack of participation. As highlighted above, the sources added in the intervening months have done absolutely nothing to assert any semblance of notability.

- Comment Not really familiar with this actress, but it seems like she's had some notable roles; a recurring role on Gilmore Girls (33 episodes total apparently), and has had a few notable movie roles in Prey for Rock & Roll, Dark House and The Village Barbershop. She also won two best actress awards for The Village Barbershop, at the Newport Beach Film Festival 1 and the Cinequest Film & Creativity Festival 2. There seems to be very little biographical info about her online except a short piece on her mixed with some interview quotes in Film Comment Vol. 39, Iss. 5. 3 Apparently she left acting to be an acting coach in Denver, Colorado. 4 If the awards above are notable (I'm not familiar with them) I'd definitely lean towards keep since she's had a few other notable roles as well. Will hold off on officially voting for right now. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 16:59, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- Weak Keep: I think the subject passes WP:ENT without too many problems, by virtue of her above-mentioned roles. Once again, with a lot of these actor/actress articles, there seems to be quite little coverage despite a good body of work. I have only found two reliable sources thus far—the first simply states that the subject's part in Gilmore Girls is an "important side role", and the second is a mere mention (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2014/10/01/gilmore-girls-on-netflix-a-refresher-and-ranking-on-each-season/ and https://www.nytimes.com/2003/10/17/movies/film-in-review-prey-for-rock-and-roll.html, respectively).

pure promotionalism for non-notable investor.
The "awards," n under m from various sources, so far from showing notability , show a reliance upon promotionalism for his career. The list of the firms he has invested in isn't encyclopedic content ; the list of co-backers of his fund amounts to name-dropping
Almost all the references are mere notices of his investments of so-called awards; the remainder are promotional write-ups. or interviews where he says what he pleases about himself. DGG ( talk ) 04:24, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Relisting comment: No clear consensus, but keep votes are weak, not seeing anything at the moment that indicates GNG.

- Keep - meets WP:NFOOTBALL. If they possibly don't meet GNG, then WP:BEFORE should be applied, so that at least it's probable. Though entirely moot as either NFOOTBALL or GNG should be met, unless this a former footballer who has only made a very brief fully-professional appearance - which is not the case.

Collegiate honor society with a single chapter, at the University of Florida; per WP:BRANCH such organizations are generally not notable enough for an article. Mentions in media are strictly local (North and Central Florida) and mostly by the de facto campus newspaper, the Independent Florida Alligator. Subject had a few mentions in non-local media in coverage of a 1990s defamation suit against it, but per WP:ILLCON that is insufficient to establish its notability.
If kept - and I understand that content issues aren't themselves grounds for deletion - the article has numerous problems which should be addressed. It has been a cesspool of COI editing (some con, mostly pro) for years. The entire Background section is taken nearly verbatim from the org's official website. And the Controversies section is its most frequently edited part - usually by IPs local to the subject (Gainesville, FL) who blank negative information about it. Perhaps (again, if the page isn't deleted) it should be extended-confirmed protected. Damon Killian (talk) 02:25, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

- Keep the sources already present in the article support independent notability per WP:BRANCH:
...unless they are substantially discussed by reliable independent sources that extend beyond the chapter's local area.
The campus organization's coverage extends beyond the campus through multiple articles (E.g., Associated Press, Tampa Bay Times, etc.) and especially concerning the organization's influence on Florida state-level politics. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:50, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

Reviewed as a part of new article curation process. No indication of wp:notability. No suitable coverage in references. Most were to blogs and youtube videos. One review briefly mentioned him as author of lyrics of a song, and three of the references are that same review. Previously deleted, and also tagged for wp:notability since November 2019. Also some concern that the creator is obviously wiki experienced but has 22 lifetime edits under this user name and created the article en masse on their 8th edit.

- Weak Keep: As the nominator notes, the subject has had some recurring TV roles, the most prominent of which would be his role in The Middle (TV series). While it does not seem that he has had any lead roles in films, he has had a number of secondary or supporting roles in notable productions, like A Serious Man, Smosh: The Movie and The Stranger Within (1990 film) (the latter is a good TV film, by the way, starring Ricky Shroder—check it out!).
