  • Comment The reference section in fact gives four sources, one of which is dead and apparently primary but the other three would appear to be perfectly reliable. The details of how these sources support the article are unclear because of the lack of inline citations but this is not valid grounds for deletion. If your BEFORE included checking the sources and confirming that they do not support the article text, that would be a different matter. I'd suggest withdrawing the nomination unless and until.

Patria case

Patria case (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article largely reflects the personal view of the Wikipedia editor "Claudi8". A "Patria case" is neither discussed, nor described in any reliable sources; therefore, it is safe to assume that a "Patria case" as described by the article does not exist, and that the main purpose of the article is to spread original research and personal points of view. The article fails to comply with all Wikipedia core content policies (WP:NOR, WP:NPOV, and WP:VER) as well as WP:NOTESSAY and WP:NOTNEWS. Therefore, I believe that the article should be deleted. -- Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 13:59, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Totally agree.Trimton (talk) 13:41, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
These articles mention corruption within Patria, but they do not describe what the article considers to be a "Patria case". The Kurier article is about SSF; the Reuters article is about Janez Jansa being convicted in a bribery case; the Yle article describes that two former Patria executives accuse Yle of libel. Stitching pieces of information together so that a "Patria case" is formed, is not what Wikipedia is for. Best, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 15:31, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Kurier article is not only about SSF. It mentions Patria throughout, with seven mentions of the name. You're right that none of the articles I linked calls the corruption investigation of Patria the "Patria case" but the absence of a unified name does not mean that the affair isn't notable. Otherwise, we would have to delete Bárcenas affair just because the majority of the press don't use that name (e.g. BBC calls it Bárcenas scandal]. Kurier calls the Patria case "die Affäre um den Steyr-Konkurrenten Patria aus Finnland" ('the affair around Patria, a Finnish competitor of Steyr'). So a) there is an affair, b) perhaps we should rename the article to "Patria affair". Perhaps, it would be even better to specify that the affair was about corruption (not, say, about adultery or bullying). So we could rename it "Patria corruption affair", in line with the practice of specifying the affair content, e.g. in Bill Clinton sexual assault and misconduct allegations.Trimton (talk) 13:40, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Kurier article does mention the Patria case, but it doesn't describe it in great detail; in fact, it doesn't describe it at all, it assumes that the reader knows the Patria case. I. e. that the article is on a completely different topic. Best, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 16:22, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article appears to be a self-promotional BLP of a social media/SEO writer. However, two seemingly reliable source references are provided. But... those profiles are written in an oddly promotional tone too, making outlandish claims like "India’s Best Freelance Content Writer" - which makes it look like paid advertising. I note the article was originally rejected at AfC ([talkpage notice here]). Furthermore, I note that the talkpage of the user who published the article consists entirely of speedy delete notices (and a warning for potential sockpuppetry).

The topic of this article fails WP:GNG and WP:Musicbio or notability criteria for musicians or singers. The singer has no notable works or awards. And he is also too young for having those.

  • Keep - Clearly no attempt at WP:BEFORE. Reliable sources found within seconds on Google Books for McMahon-Helmsley Faction, as well as the two variants bolded in the lead: McMahon-Helmsley Regime, and McMahon-Helmsley Era. Making such a bold and easily disproven claim of no sources being available makes it hard to assume good faith. GaryColemanFan (talk) 13:01, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I looked for all three names. Nothing. So which book is the reliable source that covers this topic in depth? ItsKesha (talk) 13:13, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge/Delete if appropriate. This is more of a plotline than a faction, they didn't wrestle as a group (well, not much), so pretty much all of this can be placed into the corresponding articles (I'd assume it already is). You could probably thoroughly source this, and it still not be notable, per WP:NOTINHERITED. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 08:50, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment i am inclined to support keep but fact that the article has existed without any WP:RS for a decade is baffling. Dilbaggg (talk) 19:12, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • They are quite hard to find. I didn't search as deeply as I usually do, but I couldn't turn up anything that actually documented this in a quick search when it first came around. The individual people were documented, but an "Era" or a "Faction" is quite hard to find. ItsKesha has asked a valid question, and I'd like to know the answer, too. Uncle G (talk) 19:39, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • I hadn't responded to the question above because I don't respond to ItsKesha's questions. With that said, a very quick search shows that the faction is discussed on page 132 in [8], 161 in [9], 141 of [10], 172 of [11], 124 in [12], 270 in [13], and within [14], [15], [16].

        • Comment Literally all of those are single sentence mentions. The group is not discussed in any depth, there is no significant coverage in any of those books. ItsKesha (talk) 23:08, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

          • From the Baltimore Sun: "The McMahon-Helmsley Era was a glorious one indeed. The couple's reign in the WWF, which spanned the latter part of 1999 through 2000, was the main story line during a time when the WWF was at its peak both creatively and in popularity." Pretty hard to make a claim that what a major independent reliable sources claims was the top story at the height of the biggest promotion's peak of popularity doesn't meet Wikipedia notability requirements.

  • Delete - no evidence of notability. GiantSnowman 12:35, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Jeez, I dunno. First of all there's a possible procedural objection here, in that the proposer put forth about a dozen articles that look very similar. This should be done thru the multiple-article deletion method, right?
On the merits... yeah it's not really necessary to delete it. It's a decent article, it's not hurting anyone. It was probably made by a soccer-completionist, which is fine with me. We're not running out of paper. The Italian Wikipedia has an article on this entity, and just because we're the English Wikipedia we don't have to be all anglo-centric. The Italian article is pretty long, and has meat we could probably translate over to this article. So we slap a {{Expand Italian|Trofeo Cappelli e Ferrania|date=April 2021}} tag on it. That's preferable to throwing the article away. (Granted, the Italian article doesn't provide any more refs tho.)
And I don't know as it can't be improved, more refs added. Yeah I get that the one ref 404's, but the "External link" is really a ref and can be moved there. Here is a page with some images; there's a whole page there of an Italian newspaper which I think has stuff about the entity (I can't read Italian) and other stuff.
Somebody went to the trouble of making the article, it looks nice, it has potential for improvement, and what's the upside to deleting it? It's not like Category:1934–35 in Italian football etc. is overflowing, why pare it down more? Herostratus (talk) 06:29, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I'm convinced by the arguments made by Herostratus and the possibility of expansion from Italian Wikipedia article, slim on sources but then it was a 1930's event JW 1961 Talk 18:49, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I don't see any good sources from the Italian page, but it doesn't seem insignificant as an early historical international club tournament. Interestingly, an image search of Italian newspapers came up with contemporary sources showing the tournament likely passes WP:GNG. Probably needs improving, not deleting. SportingFlyer T·C 00:07, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Not sure there is any weight behind the keep votes here. Herostratus' comments just seem to be more along the lines of "it's useful and doing no harm" rather than it being notable. JW's comments add little beyond the acknowledgement that sources might be hard to come by. SportingFlyer suggests there are ,pre sources out there but doesn't add any. I'm seeing nothing here other than speculation, but not a clear consensus to delete. Am extending for a week for these sources editors claim to be out there to be presented.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Fenix down (talk) 11:51, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • No one's speculating. An image search for "Trofeo Cappelli" brings up a number of 1930s newspaper clippings. SportingFlyer T·C 12:25, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
So where are they and what do they say that indicates GNG. You can't just say you have done a search and there are sources, you actually need to present them ad indicate how they satisfy GNG. At the moment no one can tell what you are talking about, whether they are articles providing an overview of the competition, or simply routine match reporting / results listing. Yes, you've done a search, great, but it means as much as the next person coming in and saying there aren't sources that satisfy GNG. Until you can present your sources properly and an argument you are simply speculating that GNG is met. Fenix down (talk) 12:42, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Considering there's no evidence the delete voters did any sort of before search on this article, there's nothing wrong with pointing out the fact there are sources. You don't WP:OWN this discussion. SportingFlyer T·C 14:10, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If editors have done a search and feel there is nothing what evidence can they provide? We don't need some boiler plate statement whereby they attest they have done a full and detailed search. You need to assume good faith in that instance. How about you stop trying to have a discussion with me, I'm not sure where your nonsensical comments about ownership have come from for example, and start addressing concerns noted below about the sources currently raised, that would be a much better way of trying to gain consensus as to whether this subject is notable. Fenix down (talk) 07:50, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - there are a number of screenshots of newspapers about the tournament here. I'm not great with Italian but the coverage appears to be fairly strong. Someone more familiar with Italian sources might be able to help here. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 13:52, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - piling on a bit now but the sources linked in the discussion below and in the link that I posted above clearly show that the matches of this tournament received a good amount of coverage and interest Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:15, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, per the arguments and references of Herostratus and Spiderone. Chirota (talk) 14:44, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Comment - As I have already commented after the relist I feel I can properly vote on this with reasons, as it would not be proper to close this myself now. You don't need to be an expert in Italian to see the worth of most of the sources in the link SportingFlyer has produced. Working across from left to right in the two rows:
  1. A photo - no significant coverage
  2. A very brief, entirely routine match report, no significant coverage beyond routine news reporting - no indication of the provenance of the source and its reliability even if it was significant in length
  3. Another photo - no text whatsoever
  4. Another routine match report - covering exactly the same match as reported in number 2 above
  5. A significant piece of news coverage. Again seems to cover the same final being discussed in 2 and 4, but at least of length that it is conceivable without knowledge of Italian that this discusses the tournament itself in some detail
  6. A continuation of 4 - clear from the repetition of the headline. Comments above apply but still the same source
So basically this site has one significant match report that might go into detail about the tournament itself. Even if it does there is not enough here for GNG. This also isn't a review of newspapers as you said you did above, it is a link to a Roma fan site. Not that that necessarily affects the notability of the articles present, but can you provide further sources SportingFlyer from your Newspaper search? Fenix down (talk) 15:08, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sure. This is from the Roma fan site you mentioned, I am not familiar with Il Littoriale but it's front page coverage. I'm not sure what this article is from but it's clearly significant coverage previewing the matches. This is a match report but shows the tournament received comprehensive coverage, and this is short but directly on the tournament. This book thinks the tournament important enough to include in a year in review, since international club tournaments were more notable back then. An historical Italian newspaper search - which I cannot do - would put this beyond doubt. SportingFlyer T·C 11:23, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm still concerned with your confidence in leaning towards keep despite your self-admitted inability to tell us what the sources actually say about the tournament. Im also slightly concerned that there is potentially a synthesis of routine match reporting that is being construed as discussion of the tournament, but at least this is substantially better than your previous attempts. I would strongly advise you to continue with this level of discussion rather than more nebulous comments about where sources may or may not exist. However, I'm happy to move from delete to a comment, but not entirely convinced of keep. Fenix down (talk) 21:05, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
We don't do a great job with articles at AfD where sources aren't in English, and we don't do a good job with articles where sources are pre-internet - they require more than a cursory BEFORE search, and searching for sources for these sorts of articles can take time (as I've noted, it'd be a lot easier if I spoke Italian and had access to Italian archival databases.) I still don't see why providing guideposts as to where sources might be found in these situations could possibly be considered problematic - they're not WP:NEXIST arguments, but rather trying to help the discussion by pointing out good places to look in circumstances when searching's difficult, especially when previous discussion has been lacking.

    It may be so, that is why we are having this discussion. I still don't see any mentioning of this movie in Murali's high achievements. So, it is a stretch to say itr is one of his most important roles. This needs to be supported by something, not just assumed. Kolma8 (talk) 21:33, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    So are you saying that a movie in which the actor got a state award is not a major part of his career? I dont know what logic you are applying here. There is no need of special statements to prove this thing as it is clear from the fact that he had won a state award for the movie itself. The subject has acted in more than 200 movies or more if Im right and had won 7 state awards. That is just 3.5 percent of movies he was involved in and this movie comes under this 3.5 percent. So how can you say this is just an assumption. And for what reason are we giving awards for an actor? Its for their best acting performance right? With a commonsense, anyone can easily assume that this movie is a major part of their career. Regards. Kichu🐘 Need any help? 03:24, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not notable under WP:NBIO.

Some limited coverage of this person but no in-depth media coverage. Of the meaningful coverge of Sonita Lontoh, it's almost all from questionable sources like alumni blogs, conference speaker bios, and "news sites" that don't appear to have true editorial oversight.

The sources from CNN, Bloomberg, Forbes, and BBC are hardly meaningful and notible coverage. For example: the Bloomberg artcle is titled "Five Executives on How They Unplug", the CNN article is titled "avoid money talks", and the BBC article is titled "the lifestyles of the young and ultra-rich". The Forbes article is titled "Here's How To Avoid An Impersonal Hiring Process" and is the not reliable "Forbes contributor" type of article. None of these articles establish this person as a notible contributor in their field and just include a quick snippet/quote from this person off topic from their professional contributions.

It's hard to find any reliable sources to support the claims in this article. Google search mostly returns results for their speaking events at conferences. Ew3234 (talk) 18:38, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yip, but these are really decent references. scope_creepTalk 10:29, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Are they though? Tatler Indonesia covers "Luxury Lifestyle in Indonesia" (their words, not mine) and not a source for quality technology coverage. Just look at their top stories: https://indonesiatatler.com/. They might be a reliable source but not for this subject matter. The CBS is a local piece titled "Career Path Based On Three Things, Says San Francisco Marketing Executive" which speaks volumes to the shallow depth covered in the article. The article is pretty weak as a source that establishes notability.
The CNN Indonesia article and Tech in Asia are good sources but that doesn't equal inclusion to wikipedia on its own. Both articles cover the Silicon Valley Asia Technology Alliance, which presumes notablity of Lontoh as is one of the org's co-founders. Being a tech/marketing exec who co-founded a non-profit does not equal notability, even if they do get a few articles written. Many non-profit organizations can get some coverage but it's doesn't mean one of the cofounders meets WP:BIO. It's also worth noting that the non-profit itself isn't very notable. The top google results for the org are their press releases hosted on pr web, one of the articles mentioned here, her wikipedia page, and then her linkedin. That doesn't make strong case for notability. Also notability is not temporary and I don't see much recent coverage of this org. It doesn't even seem to still be around. The website is broken: http://www.svatechnology.com/
I cannot get the tempo article to load for me. I had that problem earlier as well so I cannot speak to it at the moment. The Jakarta Globe article is a solid source but is this enough to establish this person as a notable with significant and reliable coverage of their professional contributions over the millions of other executives that have similar merits and coverage but do not meet WP:BIO?

Thanks for sharing the WEF link. It looks like thats an author's bio (as the links below are articles written by Lontoh). It looks like the WEF aggregates (and does not vet) content from Medium: See this disclosure on the one of Lontah's WEF article: "This post first appeared on Medium. The views expressed in this article are those of the author alone and not the World Economic Forum". So this bio is likely not WP:IS. I agree that the "recognized on Wikipedia" is an odd WP:CIRC. I found the Jawa Pos article but it doesn't seem to establish notability (the title translates to "These are Indonesian Executives in Silicon Valley"). Do you have links to the Prestige Indonesia articles? Ew3234 (talk) 19:10, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Ew3234 The link I have for the Prestige Indonesia article is this. There are around 400 words covering Lontoh's education, family background, and career - all very positively expressed. The Jawa Pos article has a couple of paragraphs of biography - I thought this would help towards establishing notability. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 22:08, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article does not describe its subject, instead, it seems to justify Portugal's purchase of the Pandur II. The Portuguese version of the Pandur II does not justify such an article, it is not different enough from the base model. In addition to that, the base article already describes the subject – in its current state, this article is nothing but opinion promotion and fails to comply with Wikipedia's point-of-view forks policy.

The result was keep. While not intensely strong, overall consensus is for the article to be retained, relative to the the weight of the various !votes in relation to notability guidelines and deletion policy. Here's a synopsis:

  • Part of the rationale in the nomination that there is "simply no RS coverage of this person" has been adequately countered in the disucssion. The notion in the nomination of there being "nothing to indicate notability" appears to possibly be in reference to the state of sourcing at the time the article was nominated for deletion (diff), when it only had two sources (one inline citation and one external link). The nominator did not state whether or not they performed additional source searches to better determine notability or lack thereof.
  • The first delete !vote following the nomination is basing notability entirely upon the state of sourcing in the article. However, per WP:NEXIST, topic notability is not based upon the state of sourcing in articles themselves. Rather, "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources"; "notability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources, not their immediate presence or citation in an article." As such, this !vote carries no weight, because it is based upon personal opinion, rather than notability guidelines.
  • The redirect !vote states that in-depth coverage in reliable sources is lacking. However, a significant majority of users that provided guideline-based rationales disagree with this notion.
  • The delete !vote below this states that none of the sources are "independent and some of it is paid and none of it is in-depth", but no evidence is provided to qualify these claims. Furthermore, a significant majority of users that provided guideline-based rationales appear to disagree with some or all of this.
  • Most of the keep !votes for the article to be retained are rather generic, and the discussion would have benefitted from more in-depth source analysis from all participants. North America1000 10:36, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A WP:BEFORE search shows that Gabriel Köerner as a collector get's one page in Cult Collectors, and several appearances in secondary sources which are probably shorter but which I cannot see in full, including the New York Times already in the article: "Confessions of an anti-Fan", Seeing Fans: Representations of Fandom in Media and Popular Culture, Leisure activities in context: A micro-macro/agency-structure interpretation of leisure, Screen World 2000 and Magill's Cinema Annual 2000. I think collectively that may be enough for a stand-alone article (the goal of the notability requirement is have a verifyable article of more "than half a paragraph or a definition of that topic" after all), but even if it is not, there is content here that should be WP:PRESERVED rather than deleted.

Beyoncé is one of the most acclaimed musicians of her generation, but there's not enough content for a standalone article of her "cultural impact" (at least for now), unlike Cultural impact of the Beatles, Cultural impact of Elvis Presley, or Cultural impact of Madonna. Commentary of her influence on music can be easily covered on List of artists influenced by Beyoncé and Beyoncé#Legacy. Most of the content on this page (race, feminism, academic study) is also a WP:UNDUE of Lemonade, which should be included on that album's article.

  • Delete – Massive portions of this article have been plagiarized directly from Beyoncé (album) and Lemonade (Beyoncé album) (the latter of which StatsFreak, this article's creator, was involved in an edit war over after creating this article). In fact, I'm struggling to find any content within this article that hasn't been ripped wholesale from another article. Even if this weren't the case, I would still have voted Merge, as other articles such as the ones listed above have clearly proven themselves more than capable of documenting the cultural impact of Beyoncé's work compared to this nightmarish Frankenstein of plagiarism.TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 18:42, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep – Agree with Bettydaisies.

  • Keep - I'd be up to help to expand the article beyond the existing attributed content. As previously pointed out, bloating the already lengthy "Legacy" section on her own page might be detrimental to the biography.--Bettydaisies (talk) 02:08, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • CommentBettydaisies, literally this entire article is copied wholesale from other articles. There is simply nothing here that other articles don't do better (well, technically the exact same). Lemonade (Beyoncé album)#Impact_and_legacy and Beyoncé (album)#Legacy are prime examples of this because, again, that's where most of this information was lazily copy-pasted from. I furthermore don't understand how the 'Legacy' section in her biography is considered "lengthy" when compared to any other section there; if anything, it's far shorter than the vast majority of sections in that article. Moreover, you argue that deleting this article would "bloat" Beyoncé#Legacy, but literally nothing in the article 'Cultural impact of Beyoncé' is original material except for one relatively insubstantial edit by Nguyen0409; nothing would need to be migrated out to other articles, as it already exists there. By deleting this article, nothing would change in any other Beyoncé-related article, full stop. If you don't believe me that nothing here isn't already in just a handful of other articles (give or take three of them), copy-paste any sentence into Wikipedia's search bar, and it'll return this and one other article. Understand, Bettydaisies, Bgkc4444, and Jimoincolor, that this entire article is a redundant fork and would need to be rewritten entirely, not just "expanded" to fill in some gaps. Even if that were done, however, it would likely end up being an inferior version of the legacy sections in Good Articles that we already have. Nothing that anybody wants to add here couldn't realistically go in another Beyoncé article such as Beyoncé#Legacy (which isn't "lengthy" by any means), Lemonade (Beyoncé album)#Impact_and_legacy, and Beyoncé (album)#Legacy, because that's where this material already exists. Not to mention that the material there is much better-curated as well. As an example, Beyoncé (album) and Beyoncé are both Good Articles. Meanwhile, this one has yet to even be given any categories besides "Beyoncé" (and even that was only done by DoubleGrazing, who happened to be passing by, to make it not {{uncategorized}}), assessed by anybody, or even have the relevant WikiProjects attached to it. Letting such an obvious redundant fork like this remain and inevitably decay into an inferior version of those other articles will only harm the project.

  • As previously stated, I'd be willing to help rewrite the article because I believe that there is enough substantial sources and material to do so.--Bettydaisies (talk) 23:46, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • CommentTheTechnician27, I understand where you're coming from, however I still disagree. Yes, the article as it stands is unsatisfactory, but editors are planning on working on it. It is unfair to say that "Nothing that anybody wants to add here couldn't realistically go in another Beyoncé article" since you cannot know what I and other editors aim to add to the article. I personally aim to add material in the same vein as the other "cultural impact of..." articles that Bluesatellite brought above, which go into detail about the various manifestations of the respective artists' cultural impact. There's plenty of reliable sources which can be used for this, and this topic can certainly be made into an encyclopedic, full-length article. I also don't believe it is just to say that the article should be deleted because StatsFreak didn't add categories and it hasn't received much attention.

      • @Bgkc4444: You state: "I also don't believe it is just to say that the article should be deleted because StatsFreak didn't add categories and it hasn't received much attention." However, this is not at all representative of my broader point, which is that not only is this article wholly a WP:REDUNDANTFORK which would need to be rewritten essentially from scratch to actually make itself not categorically redundant to existing material (and to make it so 50% of this slapdash colossus of copyvio isn't just about the album Lemonade), but as an exacerbating factor, it's a carbon copy of articles which are clearly well-maintained (Good Articles) and widely watched, as opposed to this one which, over the course of six months to the date, hasn't received even the most shallow level of basic editorial oversight that would take literal minutes to perform. The two most liable outcomes for this article were we to keep it is that it languishes in complete redundancy for years, or it deteriorates into an inferior version of what it was originally copy-pasted from because of the lack of oversight. If there's a future where this becomes a decent article on its own merits, it's one where it's WP:TNTd and created anew as a WP:RELAR by someone who's willing to actually put in effort to do so – provided the material they create can't reasonably fit into an existing article (as much of her cultural impact already has). For example, the article "Cultural impact of The Colbert Report" has shown itself more than capable of differentiating itself from other Colbert-related Wikipedia content, while using the content from The Colbert Report as a jumping-off point for its lead section. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 22:51, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • TheTechnician27, to clarify, is your argument that (a) the article should be deleted because currently the material in it is unsatisfactory, or (b) the article should be deleted because there isn't enough material on this topic to write an article as opposed to the other "Cultural impact of..." articles ("there's not enough content for a standalone article of her "cultural impact"" in the words of the nomination, or your suggestions that "much of her cultural impact" is already in other articles)? If (a), then no-one has denied that the article is unsatisfactory, but we have editors here who have explicitly said that they will help expand the article, so one can't say that it should be deleted for that reason. If (b), then that is demonstrably false. As Andrew indicated below, there are many books, academic papers and articles that provide widespread coverage of this topic. The nomination's claim that Beyonce's cultural impact can "easily" be covered in existing articles is false, and if one was to make the current legacy section of Beyonce's main article actually encyclopedic (which it is currently far from) it would be much too long. That is why a separate article is necessary, just like it is for Elvis, Madonna and Michael Jackson. Bgkc4444 (talk) 12:04, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete (and redirect title to the main art.) — At least by now, keeping the article requires attention and a lot of time to verify quality of sources among many other things which could lead to create WP:FANCRUFT.

    • Comment, Why, really? So you don't want some big icons to be acknowledged more widely by their impact on others? Sometimes, articles about cultural impact of an artist is necessary. Just look at Madonna, Michael Jackson, the Beatles,... because if their impact is so immense that the main article cannot contain everything, it's important to make a separate article. We also have articles like "List of artists influenced by (an artist)" if that artist influences more than 100 artists and even non-celebrities that we cannot include all of them in the main articles of those artists (for example, Taylor Swift, Mariah Carey, Madonna,...) so these types of articles sometimes still important. Why do we have to oppose all of them? ADTN1210 (talk) 09:38 April 5 2021 (UTC)
      • @ADTN1210: You state: "because if their impact is so immense that the main article cannot contain everything, it's important to make a separate article". However, the contradiction in your point should be fairly obvious: as every single word of this article – bar maybe a dozen – was ripped straight from three(?) articles, two of which have been reviewed as Good Articles, this information is not "so immense that the article cannot contain" the relevant material. To the contrary, those articles do an excellent job of this, and this is clearly not a case of WP:SPINOFF. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 21:44, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with the nominator's and some "delete" voters' assertions that Beyoncé's cultural impact is insignificant compared to Elvis or Madonna's and so there wouldn't be enough material to fill an article or such an article should never be made. As Andrew said, there is a large amount of reliable sources in this area, and the content in the under-development article already would not fit into Beyoncé's "Legacy" section.

    But the person who put this page up for deletion gave the reason that wikipedia IS the place to do that for Madonna, the beatles and Elvis, but not Beyoncé because "there's not enough content for a standalone article of her "cultural impact"" and the content can "easily" be covered in other pages, but that is not true especially as the page has been almost rewritten into a much larger article since he made those comments Diol250 (talk) 23:21, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Diol250: As KidAd rightfully noted, Wikipedia's mainspace is not the place to celebrate or congratulate anybody for anything. Using it as such would fall both under WP:FORUM and WP:PROMO. Wikipedia is not the place to do that for Madonna, the Beatles, or Elvis either, and no such similar article is used to that end. They exist solely because it was decided that reliable coverage of their impact on culture was too broad and extensive to be encompassed within other articles. That is unless, of course, you would contend that the article Adolf Hitler in popular culture is Wikipedia's way of "celebrating and congratulating an Austrian man who has and continues to influence everyone in his National Socialist view of the world". TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 03:56, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Very true. I agree with the nomination, except for the line starting with unlike and ending with Madonna. This page is an WP:UNDUE WP:FANCRUFT that would be better suited for a pop culture or critical media class, but WP:OTHERSTUFF arguments – both for and against – are not useful for evaluating page notability. KidAdSPEAK 04:01, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It would be useful for me if you could clarify how the article violates WP:UNDUE and WP:FANCRUFT instead of just quoting the policies/essays. Regarding undue weight, I'm not sure what points of view the article could be disproportionately presenting. Regarding fancruft, I think it's clear that the article isn't pertinent only to fans of the subject because there is extensive and significant treatment of this topic in reliable independent sources, indicating that it is notable and that it would "attract or pique the interest of readers outside of the small population of enthusiastic fans of the topic". TheTechnician27's main arguments was that the article had been neglected and (as also asserted by the nominator) they believe that Beyoncé's cultural impact is insignificant compared to Elvis or Madonna's (or it isn't as significant yet). The other delete arguments were that the creator of the article was in an edit war on a different but related article two years ago, it would take time to improve and it could lead to policy violations. All of these arguments should be avoided in an AfD. I feel that some people are throwing the baby out with the bathwater and trying to get the article deleted for easily surmountable problems, especially since voters gave copyvio, lack of content and undue weight for Lemonade as reasons for deletion but those problems were easily surmountable and have been solved. The article has essentially been rewritten since the nomination [36] so that delete voters' concerns have been taken into account and used to improve the article, and the article will continue to be dramatically improved, so I believe that the legitimate concerns of the delete voters no longer apply. I sincerely hope we can reach a consensus on this and develop the article into one that everyone can agree should be kept. Bgkc4444 (talk) 09:58, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

After post-comments/expansion: True, since early opposite arguments the article has been substantial improved which is appreciated for her literature. "But" at least for me what I understand also applies how a main article has been written to justify the creation of a separate content like this. Largely attached with this sub-article, her biography needs a major clean up in which many of new content added here, could be distributed to the main space, singles or albums without having by now this (see counter-justification below). That's could be possible, of course, with trimming excessive unnecesary details in "public image" and subsequent sections. I curiously recommended last year to re-verify in her main article the problems of overly detailed sections but I was overlooked by then active members (I later noticed that this concern was pointed out in the past before me by other users). While this could be a point to expand a separate article, there is additional points giving me more questions than answer. Let's review a couple of them:

  • 1) Concerns from her main article: Details such as being part of celebrity lists like her case: "100 Sexiest Artists list" by VH1 or "Hottest Female Singer of All Time" by Complex etc are really unnecesary (I think its reduce the quality of an entry). The mention of wax figures when are common for a celebrity like her, would deserve a mention unless there is a record for "having the most wax figures" or something better like the summary of an academic/critic. Unnecessary obscure details in "Achievements" section related to her awards for examples, even if she has "the most nominations", was "the first recipient" or "most awarded" are excessive. Why? of course, her records in major ceremonies such as the Grammy or MTV deserves a mention and give a general print for those who don't know her career as a fan, but if we have her "List of awards" which is the main space for I don't see what's the point keep adding more examples. The same feelings came from decennial mentions from publication such as Billboard when they compil all-time lists. "Decade" lists could be sumarized along with her discography or distributed with an era in the rest of her body article for example since list of lists are hard to read.
  • 2) Concerns from her main article: Philantrophy section could be fine if she led a charity organization e,g, givin a couple of prose and mainly if there is not a separete article for that. But immediate help for some catastrophes are obscure as WP:Recentism. Many super-stars have been involved in humanitary causes since 20th century, and can we image a mention of each decade of those who still active? Literature in this context for celebrities such as Angelina Jolie I guess could apply in a good portion of her BLP or those with historical causes like AID pandemic rather than obscure events. The same goes to activism. Legacy section in a general sense, have parts from her singles/albums such as the exhibition of "Legends of Rock" discussing her "Single Ladies" outfit. A celebrity like Beyoncé have been a subject of auctions/exhibitions and I'm not sure what's the point having this, at least in a BLP. I know, we've lines that are part of her own literature (reviews that are compared with the perspective of Carey, Houson or Dion with their voices or now Swift with her "songwriter skills"). That's applies with descriptions such as "Bootylicious" or being part of several Forbes/Time lists that at the same time could be summarized instead give a great treatment of those lists. But in a general sense, many of those sections looks like a fanzine.
  • 3.1) KidAd pointed out the nature of an article like this. For me, we have good points and half-truths. In addition that her main biography looks like a fanzine discussing and celebrating how sexy/hot, generous she has been etc, keep in mind comments even among academic/intellectual responses are largely part of the cultural studies. Cultural studies has been the subject of criticism among even academics, mainly American cultural studies, which is a bit different of the British cultural studies. Of course, intellectual responses are more appreciated than other reviews such as alternative journalism/gossip comments. The criticism on "popular culture" topics could apply to articles such as "Public image of (Barack Obama, Putin etc)" that all looks like a celebrity-style articles and largely apply for a couple of years alone in the perspective of Zeitgeist. Ancient practices were also part of then "popular culture" of that time, religious treatments could be viewed exaggerated to many non-christian/religious readers ("the divinity" etc), celebrating "historic" figures ("the most" etc) and we can continue. All are "comments" of an author/a group of authors and subject of being "subjective" and many examples doesn't universal apply either in text books/liberal arts education worldwide. At least, a quote attribution helps, I guess even for a "celebrity".
  • 3.2) Related with the concern of both KidAd or TheTechnician27 of the nature of an article like this and per nominator, I agree that there is a bit of recentism for having a whole entry. Beyoncé is approching a solo career of 20-year (2 decades), or almost half-century overall with her group. For a pop star, that's a long-time career. Is like seeing in timelapse Michael Jackson- transition as a solo-performer in 1983 and then back in 2001/2003. But in her case, mostly came from sources in the 2010s despite she has relevance works such as "Single Ladies" in the late-2000s. Social/cultural comments are subject of changes and like in other areas such as psychology giving dates/quote attributions are a must or appreciated. It's not chronocentrism and I'm from Gaga or Beyonce generation, but the transition of past artists with same entries such as the Beatles, Presley or Madonna been favored with the transition of several academics trends/waves, music concepts for both centuries. And in their time, a career of 20-year or more was viewed as triumph in any terms. Times of course, changes, but in their cases restrospectively intellectual comments are common, and no matters the decade (so "digital era" applies). That's culturally/socially is a key factor and more than 90% sure Beyoncé fails. I also think not all is "celebratory", because a "contradictory perspective" always apply even for a perspective of our policies of WP:NPOV and keeping the tone.

Arguments to avoid such as WP:IDONTKNOWIT and WP:ITSTOONEW have had less concern IHMO than a serious matters such as WP:CFORK in which nominator was right. An article is supposed to be for any kind of readers and not for a selected group. And a whole entry for a subseptible topic (or less obvios topic) is not a minor deal. Then, expansion have been made, ofc, but there is more questions than answers for having a whole entry in her case. Many points can be applied to a large list of GA/FA articles, but with the tendency of her contribuitors with arguments like since "X" or "Y" artist have this article, why Beyoncé not? is the point here. Her main article largely discuss how sexy/hot she has been, "innovator" or with addition of every power list etc. Maybe, that's the key factor here: clean up her main article, distribuiting relevant info instead a new entry. Apoxyomenus (talk) 04:15, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what the public image and philanthropy sections of the Beyoncé article have to do with this article. Thinking Beyoncé isn't special in her public image and philanthropy is your pregorative and you can start a separate discussion on those topics on the Beyoncé talk page if you want, but I don't see how that is relevant to this discussion. Similarly, it's your prerogative to believe that Beyoncé actually doesn't have a notable impact as well as that this is just recency bias, and it's your pregorative to believe that "cultural studies" isn't a serious topic, but we need to follow Wikipedia guidelines and policy here. An editor personally believing that Beyoncé doesn't have enough cultural impact for an article or that Beyoncé's cultural impact is too new or that reliable sources shouldn't be used aren't good reasons to delete the article. As WP:AADD says, "Notability is not established by how long a thing has existed, or how far back in time a tradition may go, or how venerable the people are who are involved in it, or how yellowed the pages that once mentioned it. Neither can notability be denied based on the subject's newness, inexperience, or youth. The criteria for notability include evidence of the non-trivial discussion of the subject in multiple reliable verifiable independent secondary sources. Assertions based on age or evidence of age are, by themselves, as meaningless as those based on personal knowledge or on dislike of the subject matter." In this case, there is non-trivial discussion of the subject in multiple reliable verifiable independent secondary sources, and therefore the article should be kept. Let me know if I have not responded to a relevant argument as it was quite a long piece of text and I may have missed a point. Bgkc4444 (talk) 08:41, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I must have looked at this article 18 times. I explain. Any article that examines the cultural or ethnographic effect of a single person on a particular culture and in a particular environment, needs to be an academic article, that examines the assertions in the detail and provide them with academic sources. So the whole article is WP:NPOV. Let's examine a couple of single instances.
Beyoncé "is almost singlehandedly keeping the art of the music video alive", according to Daniel Kreps of Rolling Stone.<ref>{{Cite web|no-tracking=yes|last=Kreps|first=Daniel|date=August 25, 2014|title=Watch Beyonce Sing Every Song on New Album at VMAs|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/tv/tv-news/beyonce-rips-through-album-medley-at-vmas-2014-53785/|access-date=April 9, 2021|website=Rolling Stone|language=en-US}}</ref> How is it provable by a staff writer at Rolling Stone magazine? It is entirely subjective. Also, almost all the references are American sources. Did she tour? What about the dynamic video culture in South Korea. There are reams of these assertions. Here is another one, Beyoncé is widely credited with the invention of the surprise album. Apart from being untrue, it like it's inside its own bubble, that only came into existence in the '90s. It is junk and completely unbalanced. It doesn't recognize the cognizance of other culture, is unbalanced, lots of it is untrue, and probably subjective. Here is another statement:Beyoncé is credited that is repeated several times in the article. The reference says, in a decent paper by the way, He and Beyonce were later credited with helping to mobilise the black vote in the election of the first African-American president. The way to measure and examine how people are swayed by the pop-cultural icons is is detailed, ultra-complex and intricate. All sorts of factors come into play and very very rarely does ut involve cultural icons telling them to do. Almost always, it is the basics, health, a roof over your head and taxes. So to say that in an encyclopedia which represents the truth, for a one-line sentence is decent paper, to build a section, is beyond a joke. It is meaningless and subjective and it needs to be deleted. scope_creepTalk 18:01, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pure PR. The article has only extensive promotional sections of buzz-words on the importance off the problems it deal with, and very extensive name dropping. There are almost no third party sources. If there should be sources for notability , it would need to be done over from scratch. It was just as bad when it was accepted from AfC. DGG ( talk ) 06:01, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment This may be one of the areas where "notability" and "importance" diverge. This event is likely highly important, at least to high level policy people in Europe (I am a policy analyst in the USA, but I have no connection to this event or anyone associated with it, else I wouldn't be commenting at all). The problem is that these sorts of events tend to produce a lot of useful and important discussions, but they are rarely covered in the popular press. These discussions are usually in policyspeak, a creole of the local language, high academia, and legalese. Possible reliable sources might be found in various think tanks, academic journals, and possibly intellectual political periodicals. As it currently stands, the article appears to be sourced entirely from documents produced at or for the event.
That being said, I did a quick Google Scholar search and found at least a few external sources reporting on the event. I found a keynote address at the event published in the International Journal of Constitutional Law [1], for example. There is also this article from the College of William and Mary Law School [2]. I also found local coverage in the Florence Daily News [3]. Honestly, there's plenty of search engine hits in both Google and Google Scholar, the real difficulty is distinguishing between the many many many documents that are just the texts of speeches and pressntations to find second-party sources like newspapers and such. It's a tricky situation, because this event has almost certainly...well, depending on your viewpoint either greatly affected stakeholder decisions in the EU that have affected hundreds of millions of people, or created excellent employment opportunities for policy analysts in the EU. The news article from William and Mary definitely lays out the importance, it's just the difficulty of finding more sources like it. Hyperion35 (talk) 18:33, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I Merged all the information on this page into the namesake section of USS Massey per Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/Archive 159#having a military ship named after you proves notability and blanked and Redirected this page on 23 February. The Redirect was undone on 24 February with the comment "midway squadron commander played an important role in a major battle and covered in all histories of it". I have searched for information about Massey and other than passing mentions largely around the WP:1E of his role in the Battle of Midway I'm not seeing SIGCOV in multiple RS sufficient to satisfy WP:GNG. Many of the details on the page are actually unverified due to a lack of inline sources. Accordingly the Redirect should be restored. Mztourist (talk) 14:04, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge back with his namesake ship. The new sources can't be verified without page numbers, and just because someone's written into a movie doesn't mean they're automatically notable. I just don't see enough RS concerning Massey in particular for this to pass for me as a standalone article. Intothatdarkness 21:56, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Intothatdarkness - "sources can't be verified without page numbers"
Per WP:V: "Cite the source clearly, ideally giving page number(s)". Page numbers, while "ideal" are not mandatory for content to be properly sourced, as the source can still be verified. - wolf 23:40, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's sloppy. You can't determine if it was just a namecheck or if there was actual content. Still a merge for me. Intothatdarkness 02:45, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Very sloppy. If Users are determined to rescue pages then they should make the effort to add properly referenced cites rather than just saying stuff exists or providing incomplete cites. Mztourist (talk) 09:53, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Mztourist; Take a look at how often you reply to !voters you don't like to argue about their !votes or comments. If you don't want to be accused of badgering, them don't badger. (And the always-must-have-the-last-word bit doesn't help either.) - wolf 07:40, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

QED - wolf 19:04, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Ward book is 174 pages, the Smith one is 350 pages so without page numbers verification is going to be slow. Fortunately google books gave me a sneak of the latter's index and Massey is mentioned on pages 77, and 98-99 but going by the preview it's passing mentions. The snippet view on the Ward book shows me three mentions but seems thin as in "Yorktown had launched her VT-3 squadron, twelve torpedo planes under command of Lietuentant Commander Lance E Massey, first because of their slow speed". GraemeLeggett (talk) 21:43, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds like namechecks on the whole, then. And in response to one of the comments above (@Thewolfchild), please don't put words in my mouth. I didn't say frustrating, I said sloppy. And citing without page numbers is, at the end of the day, sloppy. Verification of sources is an important part of building credibility, and not including page numbers makes that difficult. More so than it needs to be. Intothatdarkness 16:42, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I have yet to see anything convincing enough to change my opinion from Merge to the named ship. Passing mention and namechecks don't create notability.

  • Comment Sources that can be verified are mostly namechecks (the Thach article along with the information provided by GraemeLeggett). Not enough to justify, in my view, a standalone article. As noted previously, the information won't disappear, but rather be folded back into the namesake ship article. I haven't seen any standalone articles about him, or substantial mentions in RS concerning the Midway Campaign.Intothatdarkness 20:06, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge I'm not seeing much on this guy outside of namedrops, the DANFS bio (which ties him to the ship), and WP:1E instances. The article for the USS Massey has plenty of room for the bio of this guy. -Indy beetle (talk) 20:23, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Added four additional sources today, along with some copyediting. (fyi) - wolf 01:26, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The Coronado Times source looks to be a reprint of the original Wiki article (and is courtesy of the USS Massey Association). The National Interest is a one paragraph namecheck recycling the Navy Cross information. And the last is an extensive history of the ship, with a short paragraph about its namesake. Just pointing out that two of the three point directly to the ship and don't add anything to what's already in the article. Which, to me, makes a stronger argument for merging him back with the namesake ship. Intothatdarkness 02:00, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • The National Interest also has a quote from a pilot that witnessed Massey's death, and there's a fourth source, a bio from Navy's Heritage Command that was added to 'external links'. (fyi) - wolf 03:14, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Does US Navy Heritage Command count as 'independent of subject' per SigCov requirements? The National Interest is quoting text from Moore's Pacific Payback - it isn't a quote from another pilot. GraemeLeggett (talk) 07:01, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I only stated that additional sources were added. The US Navy is a source, a reliable one that is used regularly and often, especially in these types of articles. And the quote begins with; "[Another U.S. pilot] ... saw", which certainly seems to indicate the quote came from another pilot. (Besides, who else would've been in a position to see that?). - wolf 02:54, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
SigCov asks for sources that are not "works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it". GraemeLeggett (talk) 08:42, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It also states that "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." - wolf 14:39, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
And the National Interest article isn't about Massey (I'm not sure having read it what the article is about... musings on how China shouldn't start trouble at sea because America won the Pacific War I possibly). GraemeLeggett (talk) 07:08, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, but there is content about Massey in the article, including the quote about his final moments, which is why is was added. - wolf 02:54, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment He has been mentioned a few times for a few different things when you break down all the links, I still feel however it is very artifical in that its just taken to write a story about whatever his video was about. Nothing in depth of Karl himself. All I've learnt is he used to work in IT, he had a india girlfriend and learnt hindi and then moved to India. So now makes videos about it. If that is enough with these stories that are just about his videos, then fine but I don't think it meets WP:GNG myself and still vote delete.NZFC(talk)(cont) 22:54, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Probably the article with the most about Karl, telling how he speaks hindi and is travelling/living in India
  2. Next best article introducting him after plasma went viral, again doens't say a lot of indepth about Karl still
  3. Just a bit about him travelling and why he is in India
  4. Story about donating plasma
  5. Racist attack and blurb about donating plasma
  6. Mentions the Humans of Delhi story about trying to impress girlfriends parents and blurb about the plasma
  7. A paragrath saying he lives in India but went to Dubai to confront scammers then a link to his video
  8. Karl is in Pakistan and talks to a young boy
  9. What happens next will surprise you.... title and its a nothing story. He was riding where he shouldn't by mistake but left off with a warning
  10. Only brief mentions by name in articles
  11. His own first person account of how to travel in india
  12. More to check out still but seems to be more of the same, more on his moving on to busting scams
  • Keep - while I might think it mildly depressing that this person has so much coverage, since the primary dispute point is on whether the article avoids failing BLP1E. I have to say it does. That's on three main points: the coverage is on a couple of different things; the coverage is over a reasonable length of time; and the coverage is somewhat about his youtube channel, which is inherently not really an "event".

  • Weak keep Both this and the book's page appear to have been created by SPAs but WP:NAUTHOR would appear to apply. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 06:17, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Let's ignore the WP:SPA-thing for a moment. Getting a coverage at Financial Times- "2018 Business Book of the Year Award" is highly absurd because he had been a former bureau chief of the same newspaper. Ok let's ignore the FT Awards... except his book and interviews... there is no such information exist about him as a "person". This clearly shows that the entity lacks independent significant coverage... It's not what he said or wrote. It's about who he is. If not AfD, the page should/must be draftified. [This opinion should be considered as an extended part of my nomination statement]. -Hatchens (talk) 13:07, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Agree with the draftify option outlined by Hatchens. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 14:22, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: At best, WP:TOOSOON. There is no WP:SIGCOV of him as a journalist - the bulk of the citations are just his professional resume, i.e. his work as a journalist. Above that, there are a few book reviews, but insufficient for WP:NAUTHOR. M00thu2 (talk) 01:18,21 April 2021 (UTC)

The result was redirect to The Four Seasons (band)#Band members as it is much more well-known than The Happenings, and so would probably be a more appropriate target. (non-admin closure) Tol | Talk | Contribs 20:09, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:MUSICBIO. While having been part of two notable bands, there does not seem to be enough to establish Paiva's individual notability. No reliable sources providing significant coverage are cited (current sources consist of a blog, user-based databases like discogs and last.fm, and Apple music listings) and I can't find any such coverage elsewhere; the German Wikipedia's article on him lists one source, which doesn't seem like a reliable one either. His solo albums haven't gotten any attention, and his other exploits in Germany, currently unsourced, don't establish notability either as far as I can tell.

Per WP:BANDMEMBER, Members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability. As Paiva was a member of two notable bands, I'm not sure if the article should be redirected to one of them or deleted; I had previously boldly redirected the article to The Four Seasons (band), as the article on The Happenings didn't mention him back then, but it now does.

  • Delete, although redirect would not be the end of the world. I only found https://robcale.de/2013/01/john-paiva-70-years/, but there may be more in print. A database entry with no author that looks a lot like the article here, peoplepill.com/people/john-paiva, also exists, but without an author, I can't claim it's reliable, and it sets off our spam filter. I don't think either band article would be improved with the unsupported details provided in the article, and the supported details are likely already there. Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:01, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue to retain as a redirection to a band would lose the larger musical history of his life. Both bands he was noted as being in, The Four Seasons and The Happenings, are notable because of their chart success, though obviously the former is more notable that the latter. John Paiva was a member of both when they were successful and a simple redirection to one would lose that fact. Further, one would not know of his notability in Germany. His page has been retained on the German Wikipedia because to a German-speaking audience he is worthy of a page. This cross-reference to the next stage in his personal, musical history - a history worthy of noting to the German editors- would be largely lost to a non-German-speaking audience, and so we would lose a small insight to how individual notability in one region of the world can go unnoticed in another part of the world. dnd25 (talk) 19:38, 30 March 2021 (UTC+1)

  • Delete As per nom, unequivocally fails WP:MUSICBIO. The German page should be deleted, too, IMHO - it's totally unsourced content. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 09:12, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to The Four Seasons (band). This may not help with building a consensus, but it is possible that someone will search for his name, as he is documented as a member of the Four Seasons, though he was certainly a minor member well after their glory years. He has little independent and reliable notice for any of his other works, and I'm not convinced that his behind-the-scenes work in the German entertainment industry achieves notability even in that country, unless German media covered it in-depth. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 01:28, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I’d argue that as a Companion of the Prophet he’s inherently notable, and from memory we’ve kept articles about Companions previously at AfD. Companions are the most important source of hadith in Islam, and this one has eight sources. Mccapra (talk) 06:29, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep If this individual is mentioned in the Haditha then he should be treated as any other religious figure. It appears that the individual is documented in Muslim religious sources. Are we going to start removing the names of minor Catholic saints next? Hyperion35 (talk) 17:45, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I'm not sure that simply being a companion of the prophet is automatic grounds for notability, neither is being mentioned in the Hadith. There are plenty of characters mentioned in the canonical books of the Bible which are not considered notable enough to have their own article. Similarly, there are folks who met Jesus (which is the qualification for being considered a companion of the prophet), who do not have their own article (e.g. Bartimaeus, Jairus, although both of those figures are covered in articles about the major events they play in the NT).Onel5969 TT me 21:18, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I’m not suggesting that being mentioned in Hadith is the basis of notability, but that being the source of the Hadith is. This guarantees ‘sustained coverage’ in works discussing the importance of the Hadith one has transmitted. I agree not automatic notability, but I’d be generally wary of deleting a companion. Mccapra (talk) 18:16, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Mccapra, hi - my Hadith comment above was directed at the second keep !vote. I appreciate your view on companion status, simply do not agree with it. Onel5969 TT me 19:42, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Since there are sources at least mentioning him, I'd argue that redirect to List of Sahabah is more appropriate than outright deletion. --HyperGaruda (talk) 06:59, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The Companions of Prophet are considered notable, and since Mccapra has pointed out, "there'd be plethora of coverage" in the Hadīth literature. I tried searching online but Google gave me just multitudes of snippets from various books that I am not able to access. There is much more classical coverage offline. ─ The Aafī (talk) 00:34, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

According to Durham it was "was founded as a resort; it became a camping place after the hotel burned down" (article text). I find no reference to it other than as a set of three springs, so I'm going to say this fails validation as a settlement. Mangoe (talk) 00:36, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Keep - Clearly meets WP:GNG and "named natural features" of WP:GEOLAND, sustained coverage in independent reliable sources over a period of years. This well-known Mojave Desert oasis is an important source of water source for the Southern California arid lands. It is a Mojave Trails National Monument (California Landmark). While it may not be an important settlement, it definitely is an important spring (geographic/hydrological feature).

  • Delete. No post office. Trivial coverage as a resort. This non-WP:RS blog mentions Bonanza, Howard and other resorts (apparently Bonanza had a liquor license, which made up for Bonanza's lack of facilities compared to other nearby resorts). I checked out some of SportingFlyer's newspaper.com links and while there are many trivial mentions of Bonanza, I'm not seeing non-notable coverage. To me, non-trivial coverage would be a non-promotional article that is solely about Bonanza in a WP:RS source. Passing articles about water rates don't meet my definition of non-notable. As there is no legal recognition and the coverage is trivial, neither #1 nor #2 of WP:GEOLAND are met. Cxbrx (talk) 16:26, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
