Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Oklahoma|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Oklahoma.

Seward, Oklahoma

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

As the subject of the article is an unincorporated community with a population of just 26 with no notable details listed about it beyond it being named after William H. Seward, it does not appear to be sufficiently notable to have an article of its own. CoolieCoolster (talk) 12:32, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, We usually consider all populated places to be notable, regardless of how small their population may be. Samoht27 (talk) 16:01, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep If there are 26 people living there, it passes WP:GEOLAND. SportingFlyer T·C 22:26, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
merge content to Logan County, Oklahoma as census tracts and unincorporated places are not legally recognized and need to meet GNG.James.folsom (talk) 23:05, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It's a small community, but it's recognized as one by the U.S. Census Bureau, which means it passes WP:GEOLAND. It also wasn't too hard to find significant coverage of it in regional newspapers: [1] [2]. TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation}
keep We have consistently kept towns represented by CDPs. Mangoe (talk) 02:53, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

keep Seward is a community officially recognized by the U.S. Census and a well-recognized geographic location among central Oklahomans. There are also numerous locations with smaller populations that are still considered notable, so that is not a valid criterion for deletion. 162.129.251.104 (talk) 16:05, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment CDP are not designated by the Census Bureau, but by local authorities. So they are technically not officially recognized by that organization, the locals define them and the census gives the the statistics for them. James.folsom (talk) 23:59, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To become a CDP, a populated settlement has to satisfy criteria that is enough to justify notability. Contributor892z (talk) 13:37, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Seward is listed here (look at page 866) so it satisfies WP:GEOLAND. Contributor892z (talk) 13:30, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Defunct low-power station. No secondary sources at all. No significant coverage. Fails WP:GNG. AusLondonder (talk) 05:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Radio, Organizations, Companies, and Oklahoma. AusLondonder (talk) 05:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Searching through google yields results that boil down to either listening to the station or information already included in the article. mwwv (converse) 12:43, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of radio stations in Oklahoma#Defunct where it is already listed as preferred WP:ATD. ~Kvng (talk) 17:49, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak redirect to List of radio stations in Oklahoma#Defunct: this is another remnant of the looser inclusion "standards" still in place in this topic area as late as 2020 (a year before the 2021 RfC that made it clear that GNG and its requirements for significant coverage are the inclusion barometer). Outright deletion is not being outright opposed either; there simply isn't much to retain here, and it has only ever been sourced to the FCC database (which only establishes potential existence, which is neither notability nor the establishment of same).

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Comment I see plenty of non-RS, looks like they last put anything out in 2005, and their albums are still available via eBay. Not my area of expertise, but I suspect this might be saveable if someone can find reviews. Jclemens (talk) 06:03, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep as they do have a staff written AllMusic bio here which states that their first album was released in 16 countries to considerable acclaim. Haven't done a full search yet, Atlantic306 (talk) 22:06, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I dug for sources and did not find any reliable ones. I unfortunately think an Allmusic bio is not enough when not coupled with reviews. According to this page, there exists one review in HM Magazine (formerly Heaven's Metal Magazine), but that's a bit thin as well. Scene-wise, the lack of coverage is not unexpected either, seeing as thrash metal was long out of favour when this band started releasing. Geschichte (talk) 19:49, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
