If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Ayesha Erotica requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ayesha Erotica.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Yikes Jack4576 (talk) 14:15, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This website sucks. A contributor notices an interesting person as a part of a musical subculture, does the work of researching it, finds a few reliable sources (Pitchfork, Grammy.com etcetera) and still the wikilawyers come knocking. No wonder this website’s coverage of contemporary/underground culture is woefully inadequate.

The culture of notability policing on this website is a systemic rot. Jack4576 (talk) 14:30, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

Hi, I've come across a few of your recent articles on Oz restaurants, with only two sources cited in each. Just wanted to remind you that two sources isn't really enough to establish notability per WP:GNG (we often say that three is the minimum), and especially in what comes to businesses or other organisations where the notability bar is higher per WP:ORGCRIT. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:27, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comment. I'm not sure 3 is the minimum, in some discussions 'multiple' has been said to include two. I'll try to look for three sources from now on though anyway, thank you Jack4576 (talk) 14:16, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's kind of a blurry line, and some editors will accept two, some want to see three. But in order to bulletproof a new creation and make your life a whole lot easier, find three instances of sigcov in independent RS, at least two of which are from outside the local area/industry niche publications, before you move to article space. Voila! :D Valereee (talk) 16:34, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I’d rather just take an approach of relying on two until policy that three is required becomes the explicit outcome of an RfC

In the meantime the group of editors where “some will accept two”, includes me. To me, two can mean multiple

Thank you for your perspective regardless Valereee Jack4576 (talk) 11:02, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, if you want to rely on two, knowing that may lead to an AfD when three IND RS SIGCOV including two outside local/ind niche literally almost never will (only exception I can think of offhand is WP:ONEEVENT). But then you shouldn't be surprised when AfDs happen or that you get a reputation for creating barely-sufficiently or insufficiently-sourced articles.

For me it's just not that hard to leave articles in my userspace while I try to find a third and generally end up avoiding AfD altogether. Literally the last time I can remember an article I wrote being nom'd was because it seemed obvious the subject was notable, it was a subject I try to avoid creating in, and I was annoyed enough with myself for spending my time there that I decided to go ahead and move it. Less than 24 hours, BOOM, AfD, and I probably spent twice as much time to ensure a keep as I would have if I'd just decided not to be lazy and never ended up at AfD in the first place. I'd rather not waste time when it's so easy to avoid. Valereee (talk) 12:04, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It shouldn't lead to an AfD, because the word 'Multiple' means two. Editors that assert that multiple means three are simply incorrect in my opinion, and would be misapplying the guidelines.

If you take issue with this, the best approach would be for you to resolve this interpretive ambiguity via an RfC, instead of trying to argue to me that 'multiple' does not mean two.

I don't think two SIGCOV sources are 'insufficiently sourced' when two sources complies with the guidelines. If it complies, it is sufficient.

If I only had one source, I would leave it in my userspace for being non-compliant. However, in the case that I have two sources; because it is compliant, I would be comfortable moving the articles from my userspace to the mainspace.

If editors want to misapply the guidelines and delete articles which are compliant with the 'multiple' source requirement, that's on them. Their decision to misapply the guidelines isn't going to influence my decision to follow them as written.

I think the best approach would be for this to be resolved by an RfC, but as you may be aware I am currently banned from WP:Space. Perhaps I'll raise one myself if this account gets unblocked at some point. Jack4576 (talk) 13:34, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a misapplication. It's a difference of opinion, and I suspect there's no RfC that could get consensus on either number because most of us recognize we need to be able to use some judgement instead of simply applying a toggle-switch. There could be subjects I'd accept with two instances of comprehensive coverage in top-level reliable sources that are outside the locale/niche; for me other factors come in at that point. But with three instances? Over the hump, for me.

And the thing is, if we've got those two, it ought to be child's play to find a third instance; the local rag or some niche publication would almost certainly take it up. Writing an article shouldn't be about "what's the bare minimum I can get away with?" Valereee (talk) 16:52, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Multiple" can mean "more than one", but it can also mean "many". If "multiple" in the guideline is supposed to always mean "at least two", it should say so unambiguously. That wouldn't be unheard of; criterion #1 in WP:BKCRIT requires "two or more" sources of certain kind.

DoubleGrazing referred to GNG, which says "multiple sources are generally expected" and ORGCRIT, which says (under WP:MULTSOURCES) "[t]he word 'multiple' is not a set number and depends on the type of organization or product", adding "a Bangladeshi women's rights organization from the 1960s might establish notability with just one or two quality sources, while the same is not true for a tech start-up in a major U.S. metropolitan area". It'd still be fair to say that generally the unspoken minimum is more than two, because cases where less than three sources are enough are rare.

My final point is based on hypotheticals, but if someone's articles are often deleted, they're probably wasting their own time. What could be worse for them (and likely in some cases for Wikipedia) is that if enough people feel that the article creator is wasting the community's time too much, it doesn't matter who was ultimately right or wrong when the ban hammer strikes.
