April 2021

1. Anjum Sharma: nominated at AfD; notified Inda19712003 (talk · contribs) 14:50, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Non-notable actor. The article should speak for itself, but does not provide evidence of acting notability or general notability. The listed roles are not listed as major roles. The article states that the subject is noted for Mirzapur, but the article on Mirzapur does not list Anjum Sharma. The references listed are interviews.

2. Christopher Sembroski: nominated at AfD; notified Hektor (talk · contribs) 22:20, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
3. Pinkston Watersports: nominated at RfD; Target: Pinkston (notified); notified Alistair1978 (talk · contribs) 14:52, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Little-used redirect, with 21 views in calendar 2020, that does nothing except link back to a disambiguation list.
4. Frederick Joseph: nominated at RfD; Target: Fred Flintstone (notified) 13:01, 30 April 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Redirect that is not explained in the target article, but was created twelve years ago by an account that has now been globally locked. In the absence of a better explanation, suggest that the redirect be viewed as vandalism.

May 2021

1. Denice Zamboanga: nominated at AfD; notified CommanderWaterford (talk · contribs) 06:37, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Denice Zamboanga does not meet mixed martial arts notability guidelines, and this draft does not establish general notability. The statements that she competes in the ONE Championship are unverified, and the ONE Championship does not appear to satisfy mixed martial arts notability.
     This is one of three copies of the BLP, of which two are in draft space and this one in article space, probably in order to game the system. So this article cannot be moved to draft space when there already are two copies in draft space.
2. Valentin Primix: nominated at AfD; notified Creply (talk · contribs) 05:37, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Valentin Primix does not, on the basis of this article, satisfy either musical notability or general notability. An article should speak for itself, but the article does not identify any criterion that satisfies musical notability, and does not describe significant coverage for general notability. The Career section reads like a social media profile.
3. Syed Iftquar Hussain: nominated at AfD; notified Syedbasharathmehdi (talk · contribs) 06:54, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Syed Iftquar Hussain does not satisfy mixed martial arts notability, any other part of sports notability, or general notability. An article should speak for itself and should state how the subject is notable. Nothing in this article as written addresses any of the points of any section of sports notability, and there is no discussion of significant coverage such as would be necessary for general notability
4. The Lady of Heaven: nominated at AfD; notified 14saints (talk · contribs) 15:08, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: The Lady of Heaven does not satisfy film notability or general notability. This is an unreleased film. According to the guidelines on future films, unreleased films are only notable if production has itself been notable to satisfy general notability. Nothing in this article even starts to discuss significant coverage of production by reliable sources, likely because there has not been significant coverage of production by reliable sources. An article should speak for itself, and this draft does not.
     This article is promotional, and reads like an advertisement for the film, which is unreleased, and a release date is not given. This article is incomplete, in that portions of the article are empty sections.
     This article has already been moved to draft space once, and has been declined by Articles for Creation reviewers. Its principal author has been blocked for promotion. Another editor has moved the article back to article space without passing review.
5. Abdulmajeed Al Abbas: nominated at AfD; notified Lilianasri (talk · contribs) 04:31, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Abdulmajeed Al Abbas does not satisfy association football notability guidelines. The subject has not played for a team at the highest level in Saudi Arabia. This draft also does not describe significant coverage that would satisfy general notability. This article was already move from article space to draft space once by User:Spiderone, and has been moved back to article space, so that any further draftification can only be done on the AFD close. Moving this article back to draft space a second time would be edit-warring.
6. Lydian Armenia: nominated at AfD; notified Margapro (talk · contribs) 19:44, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Lydian Armenia: This appears to be undisclosed paid editing. A draft was created in March. This article was then created in article space, so that it cannot be moved into draft space. The originator also created Amulsar, which is about an affiliate of this company, which has been moved to Draft:Amulsar. The difference between the draft and the article is that the draft has 66 references, most of which are unreliable sources such as Youtube and Facebook, while the article has 22 references. An analysis of the references follows:

     None of the references prove anything. Other than the 22 references (at least not 66 in article space), nothing proves corporate notability.
7. Donkervoort D8: nominated at AfD; notified NSHPUZA (talk · contribs) 17:02, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Donkervoort D8: Was created in draft space, and then in article space, which prevents a move back to draft space. Author also created Donkervoort D7. Does not satisfy product notability or general notability. Created by a blocked sockpuppet, but there have been good-faith edits since then, so not an open-and-shut G5. See analysis of sources below.

     Only one independent significant source, does not satisfy notability, and the work of a sock.
8. Draft:Red Monkey Designs: nominated at MfD; notified Torrypendy (talk · contribs) 18:42, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Red Monkey Designs
     This draft was submitted in January 2020 by Torrypendy, who is obviously Torry Pendergrass, founder of Red Monkey. I rejected it because it read like an advertisement. It also had too many non-permitted external links. It was deleted as G13 in July 2020, but was then undeleted. It was tweaked by gnomes in November 2020, which extended its shelf life. It was then deleted as G13 in May 2021, and has been undeleted again, and has been diddled with by Torrypendy and by a gnome. If a neutral editor had been planning to do real work on it, they would have done so within the past year. It isn't accomplishing anything, and should be gotten rid of.
9. Mint 400 Records discography: nominated at AfD; notified NorthPark1417 (talk · contribs) 21:12, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Mint 400 Records discography: The problems with this article include notability, NPOV|neutraility, and verifiability. First, this is a discography for a record label. As such, it only passes notability if the record label passes musical notability or general notability. There is nothing in this article to that effect. The article does not speak for itself. The record label does not have a company article. Draft:Mint 400 Records has been submitted and declined and then rejected. Creation of this discography for a non-notable label is gaming the system.
     Second, the article has had a long history of paid editing, being created by NorthPark1417, who is blocked for conflict of interest. The article has not yet been cleaned of promotional material. It also contains language intended to praise the subject rather than describe them neutrally.
     Third, as to verifiability, the first seven references are unresolvable. References 8 through 10 are passing mentions, and reference 11 appears to be a passing mention, but is paywalled. However, the sources would only matter if they supported a claim of notability.
10. Jamie Jones (musician): nominated at RfD; Target: Jamie Jones (DJ) (notified); notified Tetraedycal (talk · contribs) 22:52, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: This is a questionable redirect. Jamie Jones (DJ) is not a musician. There is a Draft:Jamie Jones (musician), which is being reviewed. In my judgment as a reviewer, it has more than a 50% chance of surviving an AFD, and should be accepted, but this redirect needs to be replaced with hatnotes between the two Jamie Jones articles. Please delete this redirect.
11. Nabi Mammadov: nominated at AfD; notified Wikiazeus (talk · contribs) 15:24, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Nabi Mammadov has been created in both article space and draft space, which is typically done in order to game the system by preventing draftification. The images are the own work of the submitter, which is typically characteristic of a conflict of interest submission. The subject does not satisfy mixed martial arts notability or [[WP::GNG|general notability]].
12. Draft:Arvin Niknia: nominated at MfD; notified Mr.Univers99 (talk · contribs) 16:11, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Arvin Niknia: This article, which is now in draft space, appears to be entirely the work of a committee of sockpuppets who have been blocked as a result of Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mr.Univers99. This isn't a G5 case because the sockpuppet investigation was started after the article was created, so that the master and the socks were not blocked at the time that the article was created. This has been declined four times, and also moved from article space to draft space once, so there is very little reason to think that this stub will become an article. If it isn't deleted now, it is likely to be resubmitted by more sockpuppets.
13. Kiefer (musician): nominated at AfD; notified Corylomberg (talk · contribs) 23:39, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Kiefer
      Musician who does not satisfy general notability and for whom the claim for musical notability is inadequate. Already draftified once, then moved back to article space by originator. The statement is made in the lede that the subject is a Grammy winner, but there is citation for that claim, and the statement at the end of the article about the Grammy is unreferenced, and has to do with a minor role. The article Ventura (Anderson .Paak album) about the Grammy-winning album does identify Kiefer as one of the producers of two tracks and one of the writers of one track. Musical notability criterion 8 refers to winning a major award such as a Grammy, and this is only a minor mention for an album, for a criterion that applies to performers.
      Only two references:

14. Yam Haus: nominated at AfD; notified Mrpizzaman123456 (talk · contribs) 22:02, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Yam Haus - Run-of-the-mill touring band that does not satisfy notability. An article should speak for itself, and the article does not indicate any of the musical notability criteria or the significant coverage required for general notability.
      Originator submitted draft to AFC, and then created article while draft was in AFC review queue, so article cannot be moved to draft space. Naïve Google search shows not only that the band exists, and uses social media, which we knew, but that the band tours and sells tickets, but does not find significant independent secondary coverage.
      An article should speak for itself, and it should not be necessary to check the references, but two of the three are interviews:

15. Ariana Nabaey: nominated at AfD; notified Khadempour322 (talk · contribs) 04:55, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Ariana Nabaey
      This martial artist does not satisfy martial arts notability or general notability. Originally created in draft space as autobiography by subject of draft, but declined by AFC reviewers. Then created in article space by a different self-promoting athlete, so that it cannot be moved back to draft space. Image of subject is own work of subject.
      An article should speak for itself without the need to check references, but the references are mostly almost the same, a record of his fights, rather than significant coverage, so that he does not satisfy general notability, and does not satisfy any of the mixed martial arts criteria.

16. Ishq-e-Laa: nominated at AfD; notified Hum aur Tum (talk · contribs) 00:37, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Ishq-e-Laa
      This is an upcoming unreleased television series, and does not satisfy television notability or general notability. There is already a draft, so that this article cannot be moved into draft space. Naïve Google search shows that this is an upcoming television series; we knew that. The sources are puff pieces announcing the upcoming appearances of the male and female leads.

17. Parviz Mahmudov: nominated at AfD; notified Rza835 (talk · contribs) 15:58, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Parviz Mahmudov
      Composer who does not meet general notability or any criterion of musical notability. Created first in draft space, and then in article space when autoconfirmed, thus making draftification impossible; this is sometimes done to game the system. See Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information; the discography is too long (and misspells Composer). Five references in Azerbaijani do not provide significant coverage.

18. Draft:Zennic 2: nominated at MfD; notified LoudJarred (talk · contribs) 16:08, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Zennic
      Multiple copies of pages on this non-notable musician have been created in order to game the system. One copy is in article space and has been nominated for AFD for notability reasons and other reasons. These two copies are in draft space, and are being nominated for deletion because the creation of multiple copies is disruptive and tendentious. Prior creations in article space were speedily deleted as A7 and G11.

June 2021

1. Flight Reacts: nominated at AfD; notified Junefith (talk · contribs) 04:34, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Flight Reacts
     YouTuber who does not satisfy general notability or biographical notability. Naïve Google search shows that he is a much-followed YouTuber; we knew that. Much of the article is non-encyclopedic and non-neutral and is written from a fan viewpoint. Trimming all of the fancruft out might not leave much.
     Submitted as a draft to AFC, then declined, then copied into article space (and so cannot be moved back into draft space).
     The references appear twice, in different orders. This analysis is of the second list. The references are either YouTube, or passing mentions by Steph Curry of the subject, or unresolvable.

2. Abkhazia–United States relations: nominated at AfD; notified WikiCleanerMan (talk · contribs) 19:25, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Abkhazia–United States relations
     See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Abkhazia–United States relations. This is actually a second nomination, but the spelling and punctuation of the title is apparently different than in 2014.
     The United States has never recognized either Abhkazia or South Ossetia, and articles on relations between the United States and both Abkhazia and South Ossetia have been deleted as non-encyclopedic, and redirected to International recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. This article was recently accepted from draft, apparently by good-faith mistake by a reviewer. Nothing has changed with regard to non-relations between the United States and Abkhazia since 2014. The United States still considers both Abkhazia and South Ossetia to be de jure parts of Georgia that were invaded by Russia in 2008, and that are essentially Russian puppet states.
3. Kristofer Kamiyasu: nominated at AfD; notified Sanna Bergman (talk · contribs) 04:00, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Kristofer Kenichi Kamiyasu
     This actor does not appear to satisfy acting notability or general notability. An article should speak for itself so that a reader can determine what general or special notability criterion is satisfied, and this one does not. The lede identifies three roles:
     *1. Box 21, which does not have its own article.
     *2. M/S Romantika is a ship, not a performance.
     *3. The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard is in post-production, and so not yet notable.
     Copies of this biography were created in both draft space and article space, possibly to game the system, so that the article cannot be moved to draft space to work on notability.
     The filmography consists mostly of red links, and does not appear to have any trapdoors to notability.
     An analysis of the references should only be necessary for GNG, but is "interesting", because some of them do not even mention the subject:

4. Scottish Universities Mission Institution: nominated at AfD; notified Satyamfxr (talk · contribs) 17:04, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Scottish Universities Mission Institution
     This stub does not speak for itself and makes no claim of either general notability or organizational notability. Articles have been tendentiously created four times. The first two were deleted speedily. The third was moved to draft space. This is the fourth, and it makes no claim of notability. This does not mean that the school is notable, and it does not mean that the school is not notable. It does mean that the submitter is being disruptive by submitting articles that make no claim of notability.
     The only reference is a request for applications for employment for junior faculty members. This means that the school exists. We thought it existed.
     This article cannot be moved to draft space because there is already a draft, and so it needs to be deleted. The title should be ECP SALTed, so that a neutral experienced editor can either create a Start-Class article or accept a draft for a Start-Class article.
5. 2021 Ginetta Junior Championship: nominated at AfD; notified Samster80 (talk · contribs) 00:24, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Non-notable motorsports competition. This article was already draftified once by User:Onel5969, but then created again in article space by the originator (rather than discussing with the reviewer). The article does not speak for itself in establishing notability, and the references do not speak for it either, because one is paywalled and the other is the subject's own web site:

July 2021

1. Knives Out 2: nominated at AfD; notified Starzoner (talk · contribs) 04:47, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Knives Out 2
     This film does not satisfy film notability guidelines, and in particular does not satisfy future film guidelines. The future film guidelines are poorly written and are often misunderstood. There is a myth that a film is considered notable if a reliable source states that production (principal photography or animation) has begun. A more careful reading of the guideline shows that films are divided into three groups based on stages of production:
     *1. Films for which production has not begun, which are not notable, and are usually redirected, to the director, the book, the franchise, or some related topic.
     *2. Films that have entered principal photography (or animation) but have not been released.
     *3. Films that have been released to theatres.
     Films that have been in production but not yet released are notable only if production itself has achieved general notability. Films that have been released to theatres are notable based on reviews or similar coverage. This film has been in principal photography but has not yet been released, and so is notable only if production itself satisfies general notability. An article should speak for itself as to why the subject is notable; but nothing in this article says that production has been notable.
     Because the notability criterion for the second group is poorly written, some film articles are written to provide a handwave that production is in progress or completed. The removal of the notability tag was a handwave, and did not make the article speak for itself
     A detailed analysis of the sources has not been provided at this time, but many of the sources simply identify cast members, and advance identification of cast members is not significant coverage.
     A film notability tag was removed from the article with the edit summary "Removed {{Notability}} tag: This film is in the news all the time. Def passes WP:GNG ". Nothing in the article refers to news about the film, which may or may not be significant. A statement in an edit summary does not establish notability. (If significant coverage of the film can be added to the article, that is what the Heymann rule is for.)
2. Draft:Regional at Best: nominated at MfD; notified K-popguardian (talk · contribs) 16:52, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Regional at Best drafts
     These drafts are repeated resubmissions about an album that has repeatedly been determined not to satisfy musical notability, and has been more than once redirected to Twenty-One Pilots. There have been attempts to game the naming by alternate capitalization and by disambiguation. Three of the versions in article space have been locked as redirects (salted from being articles).
     See:
     *Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Regional at Best (album)
     *Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Regional at Best
     The targets of this deletion request are drafts of two spellings, and one submission from a sandbox.
     *Draft:Regional At Best (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     *Draft:Regional at Best (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     *User:Mattturner747/sandbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     None of these drafts will be accepted, because they cannot be accepted when the article title is locked. A Deletion Review recently affirmed the redirection, and so the uselessness of these drafts. See:

   • Reason: Road signs in Uganda
     This article has no sources. It is an image gallery rather than an encyclopedic article; see Wikipedia is not a gallery.
     A copy of this article was created in article space, and was moved to draft space by User:Asukite, but this copy has been created in article space again, so that a second draftification is not possible.
4. Restore The Broken: nominated at AfD; notified WVkiddo (talk · contribs) 15:58, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Restore the Broken
     Non-notable band that does not satisfy any of the musical notability criteria. As a stub, it makes no claim of general notability. There is only one reference, which does not appear to be independent and is not significant coverage.
     This article was created in article space, and then (correctly) moved to draft space by User:GermanKity, and has now been moved back to article space by its originator. Moving it to draft space a second time would be move-warring. This might be a candidate for A7 as a band with no credible claim of significance, but that might be challenged, so a deletion discussion is in order,
5. Majid Norouzi: nominated at AfD; notified سماع (talk · contribs) 16:38, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Majid Norouzi
     Actor of questionable notability. This article was moved from article space to draft space once by User:Onel5969 with the notation in the edit summary that possible undisclosed paid editing was being segregated. There has subsequently been no response to the concern about paid editing except to move the article back into article space. The main claim to fame is a television series, Gando (TV series), in a role that may or may not itself be a major role. The Gando article is being expanded by the author of this article in a way that appears to be the construction of a walled garden.
     The references are all IMDB, and so none of them are reliable.

   • Reason: This draft was created in both article space and draft space. The article was then nominated for deletion, and has been deleted. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Europe's last dictatorship. The reasons for deletion, as noted by the closer, were varied, but none of the reasons implies that the title is likely to be notable in the future. The title in article space has since been redirected to Human rights in Belarus. There is no value in maintaining this draft.

     Religious building which does not satisfy building notability because no independent sources have been provided. Only source provided is the temple's own web site, which is obviously not independent. Already moved once to draft space by User:Discospinster, and moved back to article space with no real improvement. A second unilateral move to draft space would be move-warring. Either draftification or deletion would be valid AFD outcomes.

1. Draft:Cowrywise: nominated at MfD; notified Theobasan (talk · contribs) 02:48, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Cowrywise
     This draft was Rejected by User:Celestina007 on 17 February 2021. It would have become eligible for G13 in about two weeks, except that the originator removed the Reject notice:
     https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Cowrywise&type=revision&diff=1036611868&oldid=1036610597&diffmode=source
     and resubmitted it. This action is disruptive and is an effort to game the system to bypass a rejection and possibly to confuse the reviewers. Rather than restarting the G13 clock, please respect the intention of the Rejection by deleting the draft.
2. Enam Tugbefia: nominated at AfD; notified Bloomshouse (talk · contribs) 00:09, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Enam Tugbefia
     Run-of-the-mill beauty contestant. This article was moved into draft space by User:Onel5969, and was then moved back into article space, so a second move to draft space would be move warring .
     This article does not speak for itself and does not explain why the subject satisfies either the general notability guideline or any other notability guideline. The only credible claims of significance are finishing second in a beauty contest, and a controversy over vote-rigging in the beauty contest. The latter seems to be a living person known for one event, which can be covered in an article on the beauty contest, if the beauty contest is itself notable.
     The article has been reference-bombed, and it should not be necessary to go through the sources to check on notability. However, reading the references shows that they are mostly about the 2019 beauty contest controversy.

     This article is really about the beauty contest controversy. Either there should be an article about the beauty contest and the controversy, or there shouldn't; but the subject is clearly noted for one event. It appears that she or her flack are trying to use Wikipedia to advance her career by publicizing the controversy. The three conditions of BLP1E are all met. Either cover the controversy as a controversy, or don't cover it.
3. Draft:Continuous Innovation Framework: nominated at MfD; notified Arentvantspijker (talk · contribs) 02:27, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Continuous Innovation Framework
     Draft that has been declined seven times by six reviewers. Reads like a blurb for a business methodology containing marketing buzzspeak, because it is a blurb for a business methodology. Submitter has failed to answer questions about conflict of interest, but see recent discussion at COIN: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard#Draft:Continuous_Innovation_Framework
4. Bahujan Kranti Morcha: nominated at AfD; notified Mr.Rajvanshi (talk · contribs) 04:44, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Bahujan Kranti Morcha
     Organization which has no references and does not establish organizational notability. Article was already moved to draft space once, and has been moved back to article space, so that another move to draft space would be move warring. This stub does not speak for itself, and neither do its references (because they aren't there).

   • Reason: 2021 Winston-Salem Open
     Non-notable future tennis tournament. Already moved to draft space as not ready for article space once, but moved back to article space without improvement. Another unilateral move to draft space would be move-warring, but another move to draft space or to the bit bucket is needed, so using a consensus process. In its present state, does not satisfy event notability and in particular does not satisfy future event notability. No significant coverage because nothing to cover significantly yet. The references are two local online news web pages, and both appear to be in the nature of announcements (like press releases).

     This article is essentially unchanged since 9 May 2021, when a deletion debate was closed with Draftify. It was then moved to draft space by closer User:Tone, and was moved back to article space on 11 May 2021, which was move warring against the consensus as found by the AFD. It was then moved back to draft space on 11 May 2021by User:Nearlyevil665. It was then moved back to article space on 19 August 2021 by User:Wiki N Islam.

7. Draft:Chondhi: nominated at MfD; notified Chondhi (talk · contribs) 23:48, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Chondhi
     Something improper is going on here. There already is an article on Chondhi. This draft has a different latitude and longitude for the village than the article. The submitter of this draft, logged out, changed the latitude and longitude for the village and some other information, in a way that appears to be sneaky vandalism, but has been reverted. This draft may also be vandalism or a hoax, but is not so obvious that G3 would be appropriate. Should this draft be deleted, and should sources be found for the article, or should the article be corrected, or is this draft about a different village? Are there two villages with the same name in different districts in the same state, in which case disambiguation is in order?
8. Naraka: Bladepoint: nominated at AfD; notified Kou Dou (talk · contribs) 04:43, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Naraka Bladepoint
     Game that does not satisfy game notability or software notability. Has one reference, which appears to be an independent review, but is in an audience-supported webmag. An article should speak for itself. This article has empty Development and Release sections and is not a useful stub.
     Moving this article to draft space would be in order, except that there is already a draft in draft space, which has been declined both as reading promotionally and as duplicating this article. Neither the draft nor the article is ready for article space. The draft has tone issues and does not establish notability. The article does not establish notability and does not have enough information for a stub.

September 2021

1. Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2021 film): nominated at AfD; notified Lorick2021 (talk · contribs) 22:20, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2021 film)
     This is a film that is scheduled for release in December 2021, and is being submitted repeatedly, in advance of its release. The good-faith assumption is that it is being submitted by ultras, fanatical fans. Animated films usually have ultras. It was created in article space in December 2020, and was nominated for deletion, and was sent back to draft space; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2021 film). It was then submitted for review in June 2021 and declined, and then submitted for review twice in September 2021 and declined both times, and then copied into article space, and also submitted for review yet again. Creation in article space while there is already a draft games the system by making another move back to draft space impossible. So it looks as though we need another AFD. There is only one reference in the article, which is a long mention in collider.com of the film's teaser, which does not appear to be independent. A review of the references in the draft shows that they are mostly the same teaser for the film, or passing mentions, or interviews. There is nothing resembling significant coverage of the upcoming film. We know that it is an upcoming film. We knew that.
     Some random editor will probably state that the film has completed production, and that films that have completed production are considered notable. This is a common but silly misreading of a badly written portion of the film notability guidelines. It reasonably divides films into three classes:
     *1. Those that have not begun production, which are not notable.
     *2. Those that have begun or completed production, but have not been released (which are the subject of controversy).
     *3. Those that have been released.
     The guideline then goes on to say:
     *Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines.
     This film has not been released. There is nothing in the advance coverage to the effect that the production is notable.
     The last time that an article on this film was taken to AFD, the conclusion was to send it to Draft. Since there already is a draft, which is better sourced than the article, the article should be deleted, and the draft may be submitted for review when the film is released.
2. Draft:Treymond Smith: nominated at MfD; notified Nihara.widefy (talk · contribs) 04:34, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: These three drafts were submitted to AFC by User:Nihara.widefy, and were declined for reasons of neutral point of view and of tone. The submitter was then blocked for UPE. (You don't expect neutral writing from an undisclosed paid editor, do you?) The three drafts were then all blanked as pending copyright violation review.
     *Draft:Treymond Smith (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     *Draft:Deborah Mannas (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     *Draft:Will Roberts (actor) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     In nominating the drafts for deletion, I am not commenting on whether the subjects are biographically notable. They likely are notable, but the drafts were not assessed for notability because the tone and neutrality were unacceptable. If a neutral editor wants to compose drafts on these people, they will be better off to make a clean start without being burdened by the cruddy drafts, if any of the crud survives copyright review anyway. Just blow them up so that someone can start over if appropriate.
3. After We Fell: nominated at AfD; notified Lorick2021 (talk · contribs) 13:52, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: After We Fell
     This is either an unreleased film, or a film without Reception information. It does not satisfy film notability guidelines. A draft was submitted and declined three times in July. In September, a draft was submitted at about the same time as an article was created, so that the article cannot be moved back into draft space.
     There is a schedule of release information in various countries, some prior to 6 September. However, it also states that release will be on 30 September. There are no reviews and no reception information for the film's release in other countries.
     An analysis of the references shows nothing significant:
     {| class="wikitable"
     ! Reference Number !! Reference !! Comments !! Independent !! Significant
     |-
     | 1 || Soundtracklist.com || View blocked by anti-malware filter, but would not be significant coverage anyway || N || N

     |-
     | 5 || Netflixlife || Release schedule || N || N
     |-
     |
     |}
     There is nothing that constitutes independent significant coverage.
     Some random editor will probably state that the film has completed production, and that films that have completed production are considered notable. This is a common but silly misreading of a badly written portion of the film notability guidelines. It reasonably divides films into three classes:
     *1. Those that have not begun production, which are not notable.
     *2. Those that have begun or completed production, but have not been released.
     *3. Those that have been released.
     The guideline then goes on to say:
     *Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines.
     This film has not been released. There is nothing in the advance coverage to the effect that the production is notable. The version that is in article space should be deleted, and the version that is in draft space can be left in draft space until it is ready for article space.

5. Draft:Lana Rhoades: nominated at MfD; notified Aitch & Aitch Aitch (talk · contribs) 04:40, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Lana Rhoades
     This draft was submitted and rejected in February 2021, and has been resubmitted without explanation or discussion. (There have been changes, but the nature of rejection is and should be such that an editor should not simply modify and resubmit a draft after rejection.) The draft was rejected because articles about the subject have been created and deleted three times, most recently at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lana Rhoades (4th nomination). The title Lana Rhoades was cut down to a redirect, and was salted. It appears that the salting in article space has expired (possibly due to an error in entering the date by the salting admin).
     The subject is a pornographic actress who appears to have a cult following of ultras. Any effort to create an article (after three deletions and one Deletion Review) should be via another Deletion Review, not by disruptive resubmission.
     Recommend that this draft be deleted from draft space, and ECP create-protected in draft space, and that the redirect be ECP-protected in article space.

      Actor who does not satisfy acting notability or general notability. Article has been created both in draft space and in article space, which is commonly done to game the system by making it impossible to move the article into draft space. It does not prevent nominating the article for deletion.
      The subject only has one listed major role, and that is deficient with respect to acting notability in two respects. First, multiple major roles are required. Second, the film has not yet been released. A review of the references shows that they are puff pieces stating that the movie is being made and that the trailer has been released.

This article has already been moved from article space to draft space once by User:Krishnavilasom Bhageerathan Pilla, and moved to article space by its author (who edits primarily Indian beauty contestants), so that moving it back again would be move warring.
     A review of the references shows that most of them are photo galleries of the beauty contest, and do not appear to be independent or significant coverage, and some of the references appear to be the same, probably due to syndication.

     Ugandan author who does not satisfy general notability or author notability. This article was moved from article space to draft space once by User:MrsSnoozyTurtle, who cited BLP concerns and notability concerns, but was then moved back to article space by the author. Unilaterally draftifying it again would be move-warring.
     An article should speak for itself, and it should not be necessary to check the references to verify notability. However, a check of the references shows that none of them are independent or secondary. (The reference check also found copyvio, which was tagged for redaction.)

3. Surrogate (film): nominated at AfD; notified Dreamoutloud19 (talk · contribs) 05:08, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Surrogate (film)
     This is an unreleased film, scheduled for release in November 2021. Nothing in this article indicates that the production of the film satisfies general notability. The three general references do not establish notability, because two are the director's own, and one is IMDB. This article was moved from article space to draft space by a reviewer, but the author then moved a copy into article space, so that it is in both draft space and article space, but does not satisfy film notability.

Documentation

Editors can experiment in this template's sandbox (create | mirror) and testcases (create) pages.
Subpages of this page.

This draft or article is about an unreleased film. The film notability guideline identifies three stages in the production cycle for films:

• 1. Planned films that have not begun production (principal photography or animation). These planned films do not satisfy film notability.
• 2. Films that are confirmed by reliable sources to have begun production, but have not been released. These films are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability in terms of significant coverage. Mere mention of the start of production does not satisfy notability.
• 3. Films that have been released, whose notability is determined primarily by reception and reviews.

This film page must be evaluated based on general notability of production.

Of the three references that are listed to state that principal photography has begun, two are press releases making a passing mention, and one does not appear to mention the film at all.

     This is an unreleased film that does not satisfy film notability for films that have been produced and are awaiting release. Such movies are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability.

This draft or article is about an unreleased film. The film notability guideline identifies three stages in the production cycle for films:

• 1. Planned films that have not begun production (principal photography or animation). These planned films do not satisfy film notability.
• 2. Films that are confirmed by reliable sources to have begun production, but have not been released. These films are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability in terms of significant coverage. Mere mention of the start of production does not satisfy notability.
• 3. Films that have been released, whose notability is determined primarily by reception and reviews.

This film page must be evaluated based on general notability of production.

An article should speak for itself and explain why it is notable. This article only says that production took place. An analysis of the sources shows that most of them are press releases, mostly announcing people associated with the film.

Two of them refer to the completion of production, but one of them is another press release, and the other says, in the Times of India, which is not a reliable sources, that the stars went home after the shoot. The fact that the film is in the can does not mean that putting it in the can was notable.

3. Lightyear (film): nominated at AfD; notified Starzoner (talk · contribs) 01:10, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Lightyear (film)
     Unreleased film that does not satisfy film notability. The article and its references do not provide independent significant coverage of the film. The guideline on future films states that films do not satisfy notability if they have not completed production. Neither this article nor the references state that animation (which is the equivalent of principal photography) has been completed. Because the film has not been produced, this is too soon, even if films that are in or out of production are notable (which is a matter of contention). An analysis of the references is not necessary, but none of the references provide independent secondary coverage.

     The subject of this article does not appear to satisfy general notability because he does not have significant coverage by independent secondary sources.

     Article was created in article space by originator, then moved back into draft space by User:GPL93, and declined by User:Eternal Shadow and User:Idoghor Melody. Originator then copy-pasted article from draft space to article space. History merge has been requested, but does not mean that it is ready for article space.
     The subject very likely is notable, but this draft does not demonstrate notability, as well as having tone problems. Draftification is probably in order, but unilateral draftification would be move-warring.

   • Reason: Akasa Air
     Start-up airline that does not meet corporate notability and has not begun operations. Naïve Google search shows that the airline is being started up. We knew that. This article does not speak for itself and does not say why the airline is notable, other than that it will exist. An analysis of the references shows that they are mostly press releases and interviews.

     This is one of two copies, in draft space and in article space. The draft was declined, so the originator also created it in article space. This may be done to prevent being moved to draft space.
     The airline will be notable when it begins operation. It may be notable if there has been in-depth coverage of its startup, but the references do not show that, and the Google search does not show that.

     The conclusion is that the software probably passes software notability, but this isn't written as an article about the software. This is written as an article about a non-notable company that has developed a product that may be notable.
     This article was created in article space, and was moved to draft space by User:Celestina007. It was then moved back to article space by its originator within less than an hour, stating that the suggested edits were made (mostly removal of unverified material).

The article says only that the film will be released, which can be mentioned under Jibu Jacob, the director. Nothing is said about production. A review of the sources shows that they all say that the film will be released. We knew that, and it does not yet make the film notable. It will probably be notable when released.

   • Reason: MultiVersus
     Planned video game that does not satisfy game notability or general notability. There is only one reference listed, which is not independent, and therefore nothing that resembles significant coverage. This article is obviously incomplete because it lacks a Development section (and so doesn't say anything). There is also a draft, so that this article cannot be moved to draft space. The draft is a little better than this article, but its Development section relies on rumors, and some of its references are malformed, so that merging the draft into the article is not feasible. Speculation about upcoming video games is essentially crystal balling, and Wikipedia is not a crystal ball.

     This article as written does not satisfy television notability or general notability. The article says nothing about Reception of the show, and appears to be left over from before it first aired, so that it cannot be verified that the series has indeed started.
     The only references all predate the scheduled start date of the show and are announcements that it is planned, so that there is no significant coverage of an actual series.

     Non-notable corporation that does not satisfy corporate notability or general notability. Naïve Google search shows that the company uses social media, and shows robotic elephants. Article was moved from article space to draft space by User:Joseywales1961 as not ready for article space, but has since been moved back to article space, and is still not ready for article space. With no independent coverage, it is not clear whether it will be ready for article space, but likely not. Neither of the editors who have worked on it have worked on anything else. There are no footnotes, only three external links, one of which is their own web site, and one of which does not mention the company.

5. 2025 United States gubernatorial elections: nominated at AfD; notified Cookiemonstericecream (talk · contribs) 03:17, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: 2025 United States gubernatorial elections
     This article really does not contain enough information at this time about two elections in forty-seven months to warrant an article. It was rejected (not merely declined) on 29 November 2021 by User:Curbon7 with the notation: "Common practice stands that there is generally not enough sourcing for an article until usually a couple years before, unless it is a major (i.e. presidential) election." However, User:Thomascampbell123 then moved it to article space with the edit summary "Five sources seems sufficient", which reflects a common Wikipedia error in thinking that the number of sources is the key to notability of a topic, when sources are actually necessary but not sufficient. The move to article space after rejection (1) shows disregard for process, but (2) should indicate a willingness to accept the judgment of the community. So I am submitting this article to AFD rather than move-warring it back to draft space.
     We have only recently begun articles on the 2024 US presidential election. At this point the listing of candidates is largely crystal ball gazing and rumor.

   • Reason: Hossein Kamalabadi
     Run-of-the-mill animator. An article should speak for itself and should explain how the subject is notable, without the need for the reader to view the references. However, the references have been reviewed, except for those that contained malware. They include multiple profiles for the subject on social media, blurbs for the movies that he has animated, and a map of Tehran. None of the references provide significant coverage of the subject.

     The stub article does not explain how the subject satisfies general notability because the references do not establish it. This page was moved to article space by the originator once after being declined, and was then moved back to draft space by User:IVORK and rejected. The page was then moved to article space a second time by the originator without discussing the decline or the rejection. The originator is not required to use the Articles for Creation process, which is optional, but going through the motions of using AFC and then ignoring the reviews is not evidence of willingness to edit collaboratively. The originator is required to satisfy notability, and this article does not satisfy general notability or any other guideline.
7. Maktoob Media: nominated at AfD; notified Hishampgm (talk · contribs) 22:56, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Maktoob Media
     News service that does not satisfy corporate notability or general notability as written, and has conflict of interest reporting. This page was created in article space, then moved to draft space by User:Celestina007, then moved back into article space without discussion by the sleeper account Aslah K, who is probably Aslah Kayyalakkath, a founder of Maktoob. The use of draft space is optional, but compliance with conflict of interest policy is not optional.
     The article has been reference-bombed, but an analysis of the sources shows that many of them are passing mentions, or are references to the re-reporting of their reporting (which means that they are a news service, but isn't independent secondary coverage), or otherwise not evidence of notability.

     Reference 15, reporting an award to a Maktoob journalist for an article on caste issues in Kerala, is the only reference that may be evidence of notability. The subject, Maktoob Media, probably is a notable news service. The article was improperly moved into article space by a connected contributor, and should be moved back to draft space for review by neutral editors. Moving the article back to draft space a second time unilaterally would be move-warring, so requesting AFD either to delete, or to draftify and to protect with extended-confirmed protection so that a neutral editor can work on it.
8. Kabzaa (2022 film): nominated at AfD; notified OE1995 (talk · contribs) 01:35, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
   • Reason: Kabzaa
     This is an unreleased film that has no references and does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines. A draft version, Draft:Kabzaa (2022 film), also exists. It appears that the originator is trying to game the system by making it impossible to move this stub into draft space. The draft has 13 references, and an assessment of those references will be provided later, but this should be deleted both as failing notability and as failing verifiability.
     There is also history at Draft:Kabzaa(2022film), showing that the draft was declined twice. The draft should be retained, because the film will probably be notable when it is released.

10. Draft:Starscixn: nominated at MfD; notified 118.100.60.210 (talk · contribs) 16:16, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Starscixn
      This draft has been declined twice and rejected once and resubmitted after rejection. This would be a marginal case as to deleting the draft, but an identical draft has also been submitted as Draft:Stars, which is an attempt to game the naming of drafts, and which has also been declined twice. All of the submissions have been from shifting IP addresses, so that discussion with the submitter is not possible. However, semi-protection of both spellings of the draft is possible and is requested.
11. Pankaj Kumar (director): nominated at AfD; notified Pankaj kumar (Director) (talk · contribs) 04:09, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Pankaj Kumar
      The article Pankaj Kumar (director), which appears to be an autobiography, represents its subject as the director of four films. In fact, the subject was the cinematographer, and not the director, and we already have an article on Pankaj Kumar (cinematographer). The four listed films have other directors. This article should be deleted as failing verifiability. The article identifying him as a cinematographer is verifiable, should be left alone, and is not involved in this AFD.
      Because the assertion that he is the director is demonstrably false, this is a borderline case for G3 hoax, but is a clearer case for AFD.
12. Karishma Sawant: nominated at AfD; notified 2409:4055:82:4245:0:0:CDE:E8A4 (talk · contribs) 07:43, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Karishma Sawant
      Actress who does not satisfy acting notability or general notability. Acting notability requires multiple major roles, but only one role is listed. Nothing in this article amounts to significant coverage by independent reliable sources. The one reference is an announcement of her role, which is not independent or secondary. Many of the statements are not substantiated by the footnotes that are required in a biography of a living person.
      This article was submitted to Articles for Creation, and was declined by User:Dan arndt as failing acting notability, and then pushed to article space anyway.
13. Vydubychi railway station: nominated at AfD; notified Doc Dimaus (talk · contribs) 02:49, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
    • Reason: Vydubychi railway station
      Railway station that does not satisfy general notability and so does not satisfy notability for geographic features, including artificial features that are infrastructure. The one reference states that the station exists, and that trains go through it. However, the guideline states that features related to infrastructure are notable based on general notability, and there is no independent significant coverage.
      This article has been pushed back into draft space twice, by User:John B123 and User:Onel5969, and moved back to article space twice. Rather than move-warring, a deletion discussion is in order. If sources can be found within seven days that establish notability, then the station is notable; and if not, not.

1. I.S.S. (film): nominated at AfD; notified Bruno Rene Vargas (talk · contribs) 19:28, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: I.S.S. (film)
     Unreleased film that does not satisfy general notability and so does not satisfy any version of film notability. An article should speak for itself, and this article says nothing about what is notable about the film (because nothing is, because the film doesn't yet exist and its production has not been notable).
     There has been a myth for many years that the statement by a reliable source that a film is in production makes the film notable. That has been a myth at least since 2008. Nonetheless, editors often nominate older, little documented films for deletion. There is no real reason why little-documented unreleased films should be more notable than little-documented almost forgotten films. An effort to clarify the film notability guideline resulted in No Consensus, so nothing has changed. The mere fact that a film has been in production does not make it notable unless its production has been notable.
     Of the four references, one states that the film was produced, one states that an actress was signed to play in it, one states that it began production, and a paywalled source probably states that it began production.

     Draftification is probably the best action, but after the article has been in article space for months, a unilateral draftification would be inappropriate. There is a content dispute about whether to mention a fact about the film, but the real content issue is whether to have an article.
2. Pathan (film): nominated at AfD; notified AK965 (talk · contribs) 17:37, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Pathan (film)
     This upcoming film has already been deleted once, but I haven't seen the deletion discussion, so am not sure that G4 is applicable. It does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines (although an attempt to clarify the guideline resulted in No Consensus). The date for its release is based on rumors, which is crystal balling, and the references contain other release dates in the past that did not happen. This film may be in some sort of development limbo.
     The references do not provide anything that could be considered independent significant coverage to establish general notability. The references are a mixture of 404s, press releases, and blogs.

     This unreleased movie has no references, and so is not verifiable, and does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines, or general notability.

   • Reason: Memories (upcoming film), also known as Theengirai
     This unreleased film seems to be in post-production limbo. There is nothing in this article that satisfies general notability or the current poorly written wording of future film guidelines. Review of the references shows that they are the sort of typical advance publicity for films, which are not considered either significant or secondary. One of the references refers to release of the film in April 2021 or May 2021.

     Song which does not satisfy any of the musical notability criteria for an individual listing of a song. The song has not charted, and there is no indication that it satisfies general notability.

8. Fistful of Vengeance: nominated at AfD; notified Elainasla (talk · contribs) 06:05, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Fistful of Vengeance
     Unreleased movie that does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines and does not satisfy general notability guidelines.
     Created in article space in August 2021, then moved to draft space by User:Bovineboy2008 with the edit summary: 'film's production is not particularly notable, does not meet WP:NFF yet'. Submitted for AFC review on 20 January 2022, and declined with statement: 'Please expand after the film is released to include reception information, and resubmit.' Moved to article space immediately after decline, with edit summary: 'Deserves a page, and the official title doesn't include Wu Assassins in it (for some reason)'. The title is a secondary issue, but the film only deserves a page if it satisfies general notability or film notability. The article does not speak for itself and establish why the unreleased film is notable, and the references do not establish notability. The references say that the film started production and completed production, but there is nothing notable about the film or its production.

1. Avataro Sentai Donbrothers: nominated at AfD; notified GAROSENTAIJINOHGERRV7 (talk · contribs) 04:31, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Avataro Sentai Donbrothers
     This article fails both verifiability and notability. It has no references, and does not satisfy general notability or television notability.
     The statement that it is notable is both incorrect (misunderstanding Wikipedia's technical usage of Notable) and useless. Verifiability is a core content policy, and this article has no references.
     Moved to draft space once, but recreated in article space. Proposed for deletion once, but PROD was removed.
     It does not seem likely that the article will become notable and verifiable within seven days.
2. All Action Wrestling: nominated at AfD; notified Asstiddie (talk · contribs) 23:54, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: All Action Wrestling
     No references, and so does not satisfy the core content policy of verifiability. Does not explain how any of general notability, corporate notability, or sports notability are satisfied. This article was moved to draft space once by User:Discospinster as inadequately sourced, and moved back to article space with no improvement. A case could be made for A7, but a deletion discussion is a better idea.

   • Reason: Sunny Singh Ahluwalia
     Non-notable person. Article does not satisfy the verifiability requirements for a biography of a living person. It reads like a directory entry, but Wikipedia is not a directory. There are only two references, only one of which is a footnote (but maybe you don't expect more in a two-sentence stub).

5. Laththi: nominated at AfD; notified OE1995 (talk · contribs) 05:39, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Laththi
     Unreleased movie that does not satisfy guidelines on notability for future films or general notability.
     An article should speak for itself and show why it satisfies general notability. This article does not. It should not be necessary to check the references to see if there is content. However, the references are predictably unhelpful, and include 404 errors, and publicity stuff.

6. It's Morris: nominated at AfD; notified Tbwqbc1 (talk · contribs) 22:56, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: It's Morris
     This article about a television show does not satisfy television notability or general notability. It has been moved from article space to draft space once, and copied back into article space without addressing the concern that it lacks Reception information, and that the sources are not reliable and secondary. Review of the sources shows that none of them are significant coverage.

     An article probably can be developed on the show that will pass notability, so the draft should be kept. This article does not pass notability.
7. Love Hostel: nominated at AfD; notified Sush150 (talk · contribs) 08:08, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Love Hostel
     Article about unreleased film that does not satisfy film notability guidelines or general notability guidelines. The article does not speak for itself (because there is no reception because the film isn't released). A review of the references reveals that they are simply advance publicity about the movie, not independent or secondary.

8. Bhala Thandanana: nominated at AfD; notified Khiladi King (talk · contribs) 05:02, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Bhala Thandanana
     Unreleased movie that does not satisfy any version of film notability, either past, present, or proposed, or general notability. The article says nothing about significant coverage of the film, or of its production. The article doesn't even say that production was finished, only that a ceremony was held of the start of production. It should not be necessary to look at the references to determine whether a film or any other subject satisfies general notability, because the article should speak for itself. A review of the references does not show general notability. A review of the references does at least show that production was completed, and that the producers are advertising the film, but there is nothing resembling independent secondary coverage in the references.

   • Reason: RJM (artist)
     This musical artist does not satisfy any of the musical notability criteria or general notability. Naïve Google search shows that he exists, and that he uses electronic media to advertise. We knew that. The sources are only listing of his works on Apple Music. There are two copies of this article, in article space and draft space, so that the article cannot be sent back to draft space. The article should be deleted and the draft left alone.
10. RJ Rekha: nominated at AfD; notified Bhobiaram (talk · contribs) 14:34, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: RJ Rekha
      Non-notable radio disk jockey. Naïve Google search shows that she exists, and that she has this Wikipedia page. (It is not clear why the page is indexed.) This article was moved back from article space to draft space by User:Spiderone with the edit summary, "Not a single reliable source used". It was then moved back to article space. It still has two unreliable sources, YouTube and IMDB, and no reliable sources.
11. Pathan (film): nominated at AfD; notified OE1995 (talk · contribs) 17:39, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Pathan (film)
      The unreleased film, Pathan, which appears to be in post-production limbo, has been deleted:
      *Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pathan (film) (2nd nomination)
      *Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pathan (film)
      The film is now being subject to gaming of the system, apparently by editors who are trying to confuse the jury (we, the Wikipedia community, are the jury) and get an article into article space. There was a draft. The draft should have been kept, but was in good faith also deleted. The deletion of the draft resulted in a deletion review:
      *Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2022 February 3. Now editors who may be promoters of the film are relying on smoke and mirrors to keep an article. They have also tried to game the naming by introducing multiple versions that have been redirected:
      * Pathan (Film)
      * Pathan(film)
      * Draft:Pathan(2022)
      * Draft:Draft:Pathan(film)
      The current article has been reference-bombed, and the proponents should provide not less than three nor more than five references to make a case for general notability or film notability.
      This article should be deleted, and the title should be extended-confirmed protected. One draft should be kept, and can be reviewed when the film is released.
12. Ravanasura: nominated at AfD; notified OE1995 (talk · contribs) 01:54, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Ravanasura
      This is an unreleased film, and does not satisfy any past, present, or proposed version of film notability, or general notability. There is a myth that all unreleased films become notable when they have completed principal photography. That is a myth that has never been true of any past, present, or proposed guideline. Nothing in this article makes any claim of notability except for the start of production, which is not enough.
      A review of the references shows nothing that contributes to general notability, just advance publicity and announcements about casting and filming, nothing amounting to independent significant coverage.

    • Reason: Nguyễn Văn Tùng
      Association football player who does not satisfy association football notability or general notability. This article consists only of a one-sentence lede, so that it cannot speak for itself and does not establish that there has been significant coverage. This is only a directory entry, but Wikipedia is not a directory. A reader should be able to look at an article and see why the subject is notable. This article was moved from article space to draft space once by User:Engr. Smitty, but was created again in article space, so that another draftification would be move-warring. Not enough information for an encyclopedia article even as a stub.
14. Yu-Gi-Oh! Go Rush!!: nominated at AfD; notified SpectresWrath (talk · contribs) 00:32, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Yu-Gi-Oh! Go Rush!!
      Upcoming television series that does not satisfy television notability or general notability because Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Moved back from article space to draft space once by User:Onel5969, and then redacted to remove copyvio, and then moved back to article space without improvement; but removing the copyvio did not add content. The only reference is a product announcement, which is neither independent nor secondary.

      This draft has been in review repeatedly and has been rejected five times:

      The Reject messages were then stripped (although they say that they should not be removed):
      https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Kadda_Sheekoff&type=revision&diff=1074102465&oldid=1061098309&diffmode=source
      There may be paid editing or sockpuppetry, or the resubmission may simply be the work of ultras. It doesn't matter much.
      An article by this name, Kadda Sheekoff, was created twice, twelve years ago, and was deleted as A7, no credible claim of significance, and was indefinitely salted at the time. While a great deal can change in twelve years, there is no indication that this person is more notable than they were in 2010, and the tendentious resubmission has resumed. This draft cannot be accepted without unsalting, and there is no reason to unsalt. So the resubmissions of the draft are a waste of time, and the draft should go where the article is, into a bit bucket.

1. Sunny Prajapati: nominated at AfD; notified Sunny25dec (talk · contribs) 17:19, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Sunny Prajapati
     This is an autobiography of a non-notable filmmaker. It has been reference-bombed with endnotes, but does not have any of the footnotes that are required for a biography of a living person. A previous version of this autobiography has been deleted as G11, spam. A draft version, Draft:Sunny Prajapati, has been submitted and declined four times, and this is essentially the same as the draft. An article should speak for itself, and this one does not establish a reason why the subject is biographically notable.
2. Super Daddy: nominated at AfD; notified RMonish (talk · contribs) 18:55, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Super Daddy
     Article about television show that does not satisfy television notability or general notability. The article says very little, and does not speak for itself. It appears, from the presence of a contestant table, to be a contest show, but the article doesn't even say that, let alone mentioning any third-party discussion. The references are also useless, and are mostly about the channel rather than the show.

     The article is in both article space and draft space, and so cannot simply be moved to draft space. The show might be notable because there might really be independent significant coverage, so the draft should be kept, but left in draft space until improved.
3. Haroon Kadwani: nominated at AfD; notified Ak131001 (talk · contribs) 05:51, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Haroon Kadwani
     The article on this actor does not establish general notability, and is also the work of blocked sockpuppets. There is also a draft, so that the article can be deleted rather than draftified. Since the acting notability guideline states that persons meeting the guideline are likely to be notable, a biography that both fails to meet general notability and was the work of sockpuppets should not be kept in article space, but should be in draft space for improvement by neutral editors. A review of the references shows that none of them can be considered secondary coverage:
     {| class="wikitable"
     ! Reference Number !! Reference !! Comments !! Independent !! Significant !! Reliable !! Secondary
     |-
     | 1 || thenews.com.pk || About Ruposh, passing mention of subject || Yes || No || Yes || No

     Also, the subject only marginally satisfies acting notability, with two leading television film roles, and two previous secondary television roles that are not major. Both of the articles on leading television film roles were also written by now-blocked sockpuppets. (I have tagged them as needing review for COI.) The puppeteers may be trying to create a walled garden, but that is a concern beyond the scope of this AFD. This article does not establish general notability. This article and the film articles are tainted by sockpuppetry. This article should be deleted. In view of the history of prior creation and deletion of articles on the subject, the title should be given Extended-Confirmed Create protection.
4. Swaran Ghar: nominated at AfD; notified Beast012 (talk · contribs) 18:34, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Swaran Ghar
     Article about television series that has no Reception section and no independent significant coverage. An article should speak for itself and tell why the subject is notable. This article only says that the series exists. It was moved from article space to draft space as needing better sourcing, and was then promptly recreated in article space. The reviewer was correct in moving it to draft space, because the references are not independent and secondary, and because there is no Reception section.

   • Reason: Tristan Archer
     Professional wrestler whose notability is marginal, and who was already the subject of one deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tristan Archer. Since there is no longer a special notability guideline for professional wrestling (which is not a sport in the usual sense), only general notability applies. An article should speak for itself, and this stub does not explain why the subject is notable. He holds the championship belt for a German wrestling promotion, which means that the promoters have decided that he can be the champion for now. An analysis of the references should not be necessary, but it shows that they are just trade rags, and none of them are secondary coverage, so that this stub does not satisfy general notability.

   • Reason: On The Line (Michael Jackson Song)
     Song article that has no references, and so neither establishes musical notability nor is verifiable. Created twice in article space. Already moved to draft space once, and re-created in article space with no references, so that requesting deletion of the article is the only choice left.
8. Draft:Vivek Verma: nominated at MfD; notified Suryabeej (talk · contribs) 19:41, 17 March 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Vivek Verma
     The reason why this draft should be deleted is not that so much that the subject is not notable, which is not in itself a reason to delete a draft, but that the title has not only been deleted from article space but salted. Because the title has been salted, and, in my opinion, the salting is correct, the resubmission of this draft is useless. The reviewers won't approve it, but they can't approve it even if they want to approve it. At least, they can't approve it without requesting unsalting, and there is no reason to request unsalting. See
     *Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vivek Verma
     *Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vivek Verma (2nd nomination)
     *Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2020 July 1
     *Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vivek Verma (musician)
     The gaming of titles is characteristic of attempts by paid editors and sockpuppets to sneak articles into article space, bypassing consensus. There has already been consensus that the subject is not notable, and that re-creation of articles is a waste of time and electrons. This draft is another effort to waste the time of the reviewers, and should go into a bit bucket.

    • Reason: List of non-mouse controllers by Apple, Inc.
      There are at least two problems with this list article. First, and most basic, it has no references, and so is not verifiable. Second, it is list cruft. It consists of a list of things that have very little in common except that they are not computer mice. It was moved to draft space by User:Buidhe as not ready for article space, and it was not ready for article space because it had no references. It has then been moved back to article space with the edit summary: "this content has been live for over a decade and is not draft material. if it is deemed inappropriate, AfD it properly". It is inappropriate because it has no references, and because the originator apparently doesn't care about that, or would have added references before moving it back to article space.
      If references are provided, the next topic of discussion can be whether the list is useful or is list cruft.

    • Reason: Mahananda (2022 film)
      Article about an upcoming film that has two problems. First, it does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines. Second, none of the references satisfy the English Wikipedia's guidelines on independent reliable sources. This film is scheduled for release on 8 April 2022. Neither the article nor the sources say anything significant about production, only who did it (and every film was produced by someone, unless it wasn't). None of the references show any independence; they are all from the filmmaker, composer, or other associates. Most of them are Times of India, which is not considered reliable, but reliability is not sufficient, because a reliably reported puff piece and an unreliably reported puff piece are both still puff pieces.

      As of about 0500 GMT, 20 March, there are both an article and a draft that have been tagged for history merge. The article was moved to draft space by User:DaxServer as not ready for article space, but was then copy-pasted back into article space, and the two pages have been tagged for history merge. The move to draft space has obviously been contested, so that AFD is the alternative to an alternative to deletion.
      The current article is not even worth keeping in anticipation of the release of the film, because none of the sources are independent, so that it is just a pre-release promotional item. A Soft Delete is in order. Blow this up so that another editor who isn't trying to rush stuff into article space can write a reasonable article when the film is released.

     This is a variant capitalization of Draft:Masud Rana, which has been indefinitely create-protected (admin only) in draft space due to repeated recreation. The title exists in article space, but is a different fictional person. The person who is the subject of this draft has been the subject of a persistent effort of promotion and of sockpuppetry, see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Masud rana505. This draft will never be accepted into article space, and will never even be correctly capitalized.
2. Virtual threads: nominated at RfD; Target: Green threads (notified); notified Entalpia2 (talk · contribs) 18:56, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Virtual threads are not synonymous with Green threads, because green threads were one implementation of virtual threads, which is a larger concept. Therefore this redirect prevents review of a draft of a separate article on Draft:Virtual threads. There should be two separate articles, each cross-referencing the other.
     It seems that the best way to resolve this issue is by discussing deleting the redirect (and then deleting the redirect, permitting two articles).

     BLP that does not satisfy any notability guideline as written. An article should speak for itself, and this does not establish notability. In particular, the article does not establish general notability, entertainment notability, or musical notability. The article also has tone problems and content problems. It appears to have been written for fans of the subject, and contains too much trivia and gossip; if it established notability, it would need to be trimmed of non-encyclopedic material, but it doesn't establish notability. It also contains too much indiscriminate information.
     It should not be necessary to review 27 references, or 22 references, because 5 of the notes are annotations rather than references. However, the references have been checked, and none of them present significant secondary coverage:

They include passing mentions, an interview, and profiles of his company and his foundation.

A previous article was deleted in 2019, saying that she had only appeared in one major film, and was too soon for acting notability.

      There are at least two problems with this article. First, it is an edge case as to whether it satisfies general notability. Second, more seriously, it is a statement of opinion by the author, and as such is a non-neutral point of view. Neutral point of view is the second pillar of Wikipedia. The opinion appears to be that housing the homeless will alleviate the problem of homelessness in the subway system, which is probably true but is an opinion. Rewriting this into a neutral discussion of what reliable sources say about homeless in the Boston subway system would not leave much, since the sources do not provide much.

This article has tone problems and appears to have been written to praise or promote its subject The sources have not yet been checked, but an article should speak for itself and explain what notability criterion is satisfied, and this article does not. The typo in the lede sentence as to the subject's date of birth (saying 2007, as opposed to the 2002 in the infobox) is evidence of sloppiness and haste. A previous article on the subject was deleted as G11, and the originator may have been in a hurry to get a new article listed. The good-faith explanation may be that the author is an ultra, an enthusiastic fan.
      The author has simultaneously created this page in article space and draft space, which may be intended to game the system by preventing draftifying the article.

      There are at least two problems with this article, tone and notability. The tone is blatantly promotional, as it has been since the article was written in 2010, and has been tagged as {{peacock}} since 2011. It was written by two single-purpose accounts, neither of whom has edited since, one of whom is either the developer of the technique or a relative of the developer of the technique. Removing the puffery would reduce the article to a stub. So the question is whether the topic is notable. Does it pass general notability? Does the article speak for itself and explain how the technique is discussed by reliable sources? The article says that the technique is valuable, but it doesn't attribute that to reliable sources. A check of the references shows that their purpose has probably been to have references because Wikipedia requires them. Four of them are about three other books on similar techniques (and Wikipedia has articles about their authors and their works), which were written before Hudson's books. Two of the references are to the author's books. One of the references has nothing to do with the subject.

      This article is about a technique. An article about either of the author's books might or might not pass book notability if it were neutral, which this article is not. This article does not establish that the technique passes general notability, and is promotion. Is there a bit bucket handy?

   • Reason: Balen Shah
     Non-notable rapper, engineer, and would-be politician who does not satisfy general notability, political notability, or musical notability. A draft was submitted and declined twice, by different submitters and different reviewers, both of whom said it did not establish biographical notability. This article was then resubmitted by another editor and created in article space by another editor, and the subject still is not notable. Nothing in the article or the draft establishes general notability. As a candidate for Mayor of a large city, the subject does not satisfy political notability. The discography (which has been copied from the draft) does not establish musical notability. An article should speak for itself without the need to check the references, and this article does not, but the references have been checked. Seven of them are about his mayoral campaign, and are all primary coverage or passing mentions. None of them provide the coverage required for general notability.

     This song does not satisfy song notability, at least not at this time, because it neither satisfies any of the criteria that normally indicate that general notability is likely to be satisfied, nor does it directly satisfy general notability. Songs that do not satisfy song notability are usually redirected, to the album, or to the artist or the artist's discography. In this case, the album has not yet been released, and the single was released in advance. The article does not explain how the song is notable. It says that the song has been released; we knew that. None of the references are independent secondary coverage of the song. They are either about the (pending) album, or are associated with the artist.

This is very much too soon and should be draftified (or deleted).

     Run-of-the-mill digital content publisher. There are two problems with this article. First, an article should speak for itself and explain why the subject is notable, but this article does not. There is nothing in it that identifies the significant coverage by third parties that would support corporate notability. It simply says that the company exists. What little content there is reads like a brochure. Second, the references do not provide multiple significant coverage by reliable sources. The Wall Street Journal article is independent reliable coverage. The other three references are interviews, essentially copies of each other. However, references are necessary but not sufficient, and the article is not sufficient.

      Article about a real estate investor that does not establish biographical notability. The article contains minimal information, and basically says that he is a real estate investor. Naïve Google search finds that he uses social media, and has publicized himself well. (If there were secondary coverage, it would be hard to weed out from his advertising.) A check of the references shows, again, that he generates publicity for himself. Five of the six references are interviews, and one is written by him. There is no independent coverage in the article.

      I was in the process of writing an AFD for this page, and then it was moved to draft space. The author appears to be trying to spam with articles about a Nepalese politician who may be himself or his employer. A check of the references is normally not relevant to a nomination to delete a draft.

(There is no rule against manually moving a draft to article space, but basic policies such as notability and verifiability apply.) A review shows that the subject still does not satisfy any of the criteria individually, and this article should be redirected to Into1.

    • Reason: Corfu Reading Society
      This article does not establish organizational notability and is non-neutrally written. There is only one source provided, a book. We can assume that the book is an independent reliable secondary source, but that it does not constitute significant coverage by multiple reliable sources. Promotional material extends from the first paragraph to the last section. In the first paragraph:

      It acquired a social, educational, political and patriotic character, occupying an important role in the intellectual and social life of the Ionian area, as it was born through the liberal Western European perceptions of early 19th century and the emerging common European concept.

      In the last section:

      The Corfu Reading Society, during the last fifty years, has developed a remarkable publishing activity that focuses on the study and promotion of Ionian culture.

      A Wikipedia article should describe what third-party [[WP:RS|reliable sources[[ say about an organization. This article is written from the perspective of the society and tells what the society says about itself. There is no discussion of third parties.
      This page was moved from article space to draft space by one reviewer with the notation that it was not ready for article space. However, it was then moved back to article space by its author. Moving it back to draft space unilaterally a second time would be move-warring, and the community can decide on the disposition of the article. The organization probably is notable, but the current article is not a suitable beginning, and should probably be reduced in draft space to a stub and then rewritten from independent sources.

A redirect from Princess Christine of Ligne was deleted, because these are two forms of the name of the same person. I have not seen the deleted article and so am not tagging this article for G4. Sourcing is even more important for a biography of a living person than for other Wikipedia articles. However, this article has two references, neither of which can be checked. The first reference, https://www.monarquia.org/, results in warnings from both Firefox and Chrome. I did not attempt to view the rogue web site.

     This film article does not have enough information to establish film notability.

     Indian art director who does not appear to satisfy creative notability or general notability. An article should speak for itself and explain why the subject is notable, and this does not. It says that he has developed a technique to allow the blind to paint, using fragrances. That is a credible claim of significance, but this is not an A7 nomination. The reference is 404-compliant, and so fails verifiability, which is a precondition to notability. It states that he received an award, but on verification, the award appears to be one that is given to children, and so is interesting, but does not establish notability. Other than that, the article consists of a filmography of films that are merely names. So there is nothing in the article itself to establish notability. A check of the references is not helpful. One is a promoted story. Another says that he received an award that appears to be given to children. Two of the references are 404-compliant, and four of them are IMDB. The IMDB references were not checked (because they were IMDB).

5. In the Crease (studio show): nominated at AfD; notified Dhouston45 (talk · contribs) 20:19, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: In the Crease (studio show)
     Television show article with no references, which therefore does not satisfy television notability or verifiability. A copy was created in article space with no references, and moved to draft space by User:Mcampany. This copy was then created again in article space. At this point this article should simply be deleted, and any sources can be added to the draft.

     Non-notable actor. Nothing in this article says anything that would establish either general notability or acting notability. None of the films or plays listed in the filmography appear to be considered notable themselves. There is no mention in the text of this article about significant coverage.
7. Amir Mohammad Nekounam: nominated at AfD; notified A2004b (talk · contribs) 04:43, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Amir Mohammad Nekounam
     Non-notable sport shooter. There is no sport-specific guideline for shooting sports, so general notability is the only guideline. The text of the article reads like a resume, and says nothing about secondary coverage. An article should speak for itself without reference to the sources, because most readers will not be looking at the sources. However, the references have been checked, and are only routine mentions that he competed in the events.

   • Reason: Zabihollah Kohkan
     Association football player who neither satisfies general notability nor the former sport-specific special notability guideline. He was on the roster of a first-tier team, but did not make an appearance, and is now on the roster of a second-tier team. This article states only that he is a football player, and makes no mention of any third-party significant coverage. On the one hand, an article should speak for itself and should tell the reader, who may not want to read the references, why the subject is notable. This article does not do that. On the other hand, a check of the references is equally uninformative, although the article has been bombed with useless references, largely to his place on the youth team, and other routine coverage.

9. Mamla Hamla Jhamela: nominated at AfD; notified Abbasulu (talk · contribs) 03:35, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Mamla Hamla Jhamela
     Unreleased film that was already deleted once and still does not satisfy film notability or general notability. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mamla Hamla Jhamela. There is nothing in the article having to do with significant coverage of the film or its production, and not even a mention of when the film was produced or will be produced. The film appears to be in some sort of development limbo, and an article was deleted once, and should be deleted again.
10. Suzhal: The Vortex: nominated at AfD; notified Panda619 (talk · contribs) 05:14, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Suzhal: The Vortex
      Non-notable upcoming television series which is too soon. There is nothing in this article that indicates web notability, television notability, or general notability. There is not enough information to be encyclopedic, and no mention of what third parties have said.
11. Sincine Film Festival: nominated at AfD; notified Mahakal17 (talk · contribs) 20:57, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Sincine Film Festival
      Non-notable run-of-the-mill film festival that does not satisfy event notability. There are at least two problems with this article. First, there is nothing in the article that implies any sort of third-party coverage of the film festival. An article should speak for itself, and this article does not. Second, there is an obvious conflict of interest, because the second sentence in the article says:

      We are committed to bring the best of worldwide cinema

      . Wikipedia is written in the formal third person, not in the first person. This article has been moved out of process into article space without review by a neutral editor. It was moved to draft space by User:Praxidicae, and should have remained in quarantine, but was moved back into article space by Mahakal17, not by a reviewer.
12. Judson Clarke: nominated at AfD; notified Gussy226 (talk · contribs) 14:31, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Judson Clarke
      Australian rules footballer who does not satisfy general notability. There is no special notability guideline for Australian football, so that general notability is the only guideline. The lede sentence and the section on early life and junior football state only that he exists, but Wikipedia is not a directory. The paragraph on his 2022 career states that he played for Richmond, which is a database item of the sort that is no longer a basis for sports notability. Nothing is said about coverage by a reliable source.
      There is already a draft, Draft:Judson Clarke, which has somewhat more information, but is also not ready for acceptance. The draft contains a note that the subject does not satisfy WP:NAFL, but that guideline has itself now been deleted. A one-sentence stub was then inserted into article space, which was tagged for BLPPROD. The article was then expanded to the present three sentences with one (paywalled) reference, and the BLPPROD was properly removed, but the article does not make any claim of notability.
      The subject may have a fan club of ultras. Wikipedia does not need to accept inadequate stubs written by fan clubs.

      Articles on this subject have already been deleted, as per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Romanian Brazilians and a G4. I haven't seen the deleted article and so am not tagging this article for another G4. However, the same arguments apply as in the AFD, including not everything is encyclopedic and not enough information to be encyclopedic. The references verify that what is in the article is verifiable. The question is whether the subject is encyclopedic, and it has already been decided once that it is not.

      This article appears to be about a village, but is incomprehensible. It doesn't even say that the village is in Nigeria, which must be inferred. It does not establish geographic notability. It was moved to draft space once, and moved back to article space. If the village is a named inhabited place or otherwise notable, this article should be blown up and started over because the quality of the English is bad.

      Beauty pageant that has already been found non-notable once. Does not even have any references, and so fails verifiability as well as notability.
      Consider use of sodium chloride.
17. Celsius Network: nominated at AfD; notified Sbrk337 (talk · contribs) 19:27, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Celsius Network
      Cryptocurrency exchange that did not satisfy corporate notability in February 2022, and was deleted as per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Celsius Network, and is still not notable. An article on this business was restored on 13 June 2022, but what the reliable sources indicate is that the network ceased operation on 13 June 2022. If a company was not notable when it was in business, then it is not notable when it is out of business – unless its failure has itself satisfied general notability, which is not the case here.
      A draft, Draft:Celsius Network, was also submitted and declined on 13 June 2022, and has been resubmitted. The draft can be kept for possible expansion in case the failure of the network itself satisfies general notability
18. Warina Hussain: nominated at AfD; notified Moheen (talk · contribs) 20:59, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Warina Hussain
      Actress with one major role, who therefore does not meet acting notability guidelines. This title has been cut down to a redirect to Loveyatri, her major role, and expanded to an article several times, most recently by a sockpuppet. A review of the references shows that she also does not satisfy general notability, because they are mostly puff pieces promoting her.

      As an Alternative to Deletion, the article should be cut down to a redirect to Loveyatri again, and the redirect should be given extended-confirmed protection so that a neutral editor can create an article when one of her films in progress is released. Until then, the title should be redirected. (Cutting the article down to a redirect by normal editing would only result in edit-warring.)
19. List of O Walzer Fuer Die Luftwaffe Characters: nominated at AfD; notified Krakennowak (talk · contribs) 03:20, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: List of O Walzer Fuer Die Luftwaffe Characters
      This list has neither any of references nor any blue links and so is completely unverifiable. There is no evidence of general notability or list notability. The originator has also created a draft that is the same as this article. Because there also is a draft, the article cannot be moved into draft space. So this article should go into a bit bucket while the draft is improved.
20. Rakhmatilla Akhmadjonov: nominated at AfD; notified Dilshod909 (talk · contribs) 05:54, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Rakhmatilla Akhmadjonov
      Non-notable blogger. A biography of a living person should speak for itself and explain why the subject is biographically notable, which this article does not do, probably because the subject is a run-of-the-mill student and blogger. This article was already moved to draft space once and back to article space, so not moving to draft space again (except by consensus). This article says nothing about significant coverage by reliable sources. It reads like a social media profile, but Wikipedia is not a social medium. This article was written to praise its subject, but Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view.
21. Quahog, Rhode Island: nominated at RfD; Target: Family Guy (notified); notified Radiojon (talk · contribs) 00:10, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Quahog, Rhode Island
      I am requesting to delete this redirect in order to accept Draft:Quahog, Rhode Island as an article. After reviewing the draft, I tagged the redirect with {{db-afc-move}}, the variety of G6 used by AFC reviewers when there is a redirect that will be replaced by an article, typically, as in this case, where the draft will expand on a subtopic in the article. The G6 was declined by User:Jay with the comment "Removing G6 - this has been there from 2004, I would suggest a merge-and-redirect from the draft". I respectfully disagree, and am using RFD as the process to obtain consensus. I don't think that a subtopic or related topic redirect having existed for eighteen years is itself a reason to keep the redirect rather than to replace it with an article.
22. Reprise Digital: nominated at AfD; notified Raghavkvp (talk · contribs) 05:26, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Reprise Digital
      Non-notable marketing agency that does not satisfy general notability or corporate notability. The body of the article says nothing about significant coverage by third parties. The one reference is a press release about its management and so is not an independent source. The agency is a subsidiary of a subsidiary of The Interpublic Group of Companies, and a redirect to the parent company is a sufficient alternative to deletion.
23. Black Metaphor: nominated at AfD; notified Jimfrickebigred (talk · contribs) 05:42, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Black Metaphor
      Music producer who does not satisfy general notability or musical notability. Two previous articles have already been deleted; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Black Metaphor (2nd nomination). The edit summary states "Republishing formerly removed page", which is likely to qualify for G4. In any event, there is nothing in this article that is more recent than the date of the deletion discussion. Neither of the "most notable works" provide a basis for musical notability.

    • Reason: Dejavu (2022 film)
      Unreleased film that does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines. This article does not say anything about significant coverage of the film by independent sources, because there may not have been any. The two references are both only announcements of the film and the teaser, and so are not independent.

    • Reason: 2022 FIBA Under 16 Women's Asian Championship
      Article about a youth sports championship that has not received significant coverage and so does not satisfy general notability or sports notability. This is a continental youth championship, and youth championships have never had a presumption of notability even before the revision of the notability guidelines, so that only general notability applies. Review of the sources shows that the first one is not about the youth tournament, and the other sources are by FIBA, the international basketball association, and so are not independent or secondary. Two of the sources are about other events and one is a database entry. One of them is significant coverage, but is not independent or secondary.

    • Reason: Big Wheel
      Song that does not come anywhere close to general notability, and does not satisfy musical notability. Song notability requires independent coverage other than artist and label. A draft was declined twice, at which point this article was created and is essentially same as draft.

   • Reason: Class Ache
     This television show article has no references, and so fails both verifiability and notability. One copy of this article was already moved from article space to draft space by User:Mhawk10 as an alternative to deletion. That alternative is no longer available because the draft slot is now occupied. So this copy should be deleted, and the draft can be edited.
2. Indian Predator: The Butcher of Delhi: nominated at AfD; notified Neu84321 (talk · contribs) 03:30, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Indian Predator: The Butcher of Delhi
     This article about a television show is too soon and does not satisfy general notability or television notability. There is nothing in this article that refers to significant coverage or coverage by independent sources. It only states that the series will air in two weeks.
3. Lagging (TV series): nominated at AfD; notified Liam wigley (talk · contribs) 23:51, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Lagging (TV series)
     After research, it appears that this is not about Lagging (TV series) or Princess Mirror-Belle, but is a (messed-up) copy-paste of So Awkward. The title Princess Mirror-Belle has already been salted due to repeated recreation, and so this seems to have been renamed to game the name. This is probably a candidate for speedy deletion, maybe as A10, but is being nominated for deletion so as to write up the issue. I was originally planning to nominate it for deletion because it has no independent sources, but it has no independent sources because it is a copy-paste.
4. Craig Duffy: nominated at AfD; notified Craig F Duffy (talk · contribs) 18:53, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Craig Duffy
     autobiography of non-notable businessman and snooker and poker player who does not satisfy general notability. Nothing in the article refers to significant coverage by independent sources. An article on this person has already been discussed and deleted once at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Craig Duffy (entrepreneur), and nothing has changed except that the subject/author continues to be persistent.
     A review of the references shows that they are all database entries of the sort that have been deprecated even for major sports such as association football and baseball. Cue sports have never had a special notability guideline, although they have a lengthy notability essay which does not provide any specific basis for individual notability other than general notability. So neither the article nor the references provide significant coverage.

5. Chandigarh women's football team: nominated at AfD; notified Lancepark (talk · contribs) 04:28, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Chandigarh women's football team
     Non-notable sports team that does not satisfy general notability. This was first created in article space but moved into draft space by User:Spiderone after being tagged as relying on primary sources. This copy was then created in article space, so that it cannot be moved into draft space, but still is not ready for article space. A check of the references shows that they are all primary sources, and mostly refer to the subjunior team winning its championship, and are not significant coverage. Junior and subjunior sports have very seldom been considered notable, even before the revision of the sports notability guidelines.

   • Reason: Macherla Niyojakavargam
     Unreleased film that is too soon and does not satisfy film notability guidelines. This article has already been moved to draft space twice, once after a previous AFD found that it was not ready for article space and was closed as Draftify. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Macherla Niyojakavargam. However, the article has been moved back to article space, although it is still an unreleased film. There is nothing in this article that refers to significant coverage by independent sources. It should be either speedy-deleted as G4, or deleted. or draftified again, and the title should be Extended-Confirmed Protected in article space so that a neutral reviewer can move it into article space when the film is released and reviewed.

     Non-notable run-of-the-mill beauty contest. With no references, fails both verifiability and notability.

10. Draft:Pathaan (film): nominated at MfD; notified Orbit Wharf (talk · contribs) 06:32, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Draft:Pathaan (film)
      This draft is one of multiple reincarnations of articles on a planned big-budget film. This version was created in October 2021 by a sockpuppet, but has been subsequently edited by both good-faith and bad-faith editors, and has been in article space once before being draftified. Other versions have also been in article space. The promoters of the film appear to be trying to confuse the jury with multiple copies of articles. This version was rejected on 7 January 2022, and has since been nominated for deletion, which was No Consensus at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Pathan (film), and has been almost constantly edited by IP addresses, so that its history is confused.
      There is now another draft at Draft:Pathaan (2023 film). The (2023) version can be the version that is edited. We don't need two versions in draft space. (We don't need any versions in article space yet.)

      Musician whose article does not present a case for musical notability or general notability. An article should speak for itself and explain what the significant coverage is, and this article does not, so it should not be necessary to check the references. However, they have been checked, and they do not provide significant coverage from independent sources. They include an interview, a blog, two short accounts of the theft of a record, a snippet about sales figures (of 500), and a list of the people at a party.

      Declined twice in draft space, then moved to article space by author. Draftification is an acceptable Alternative to Deletion. Not a good candidate for unilateral deletion because the issue is notability rather than verifiability.

14. Hypnotic (upcoming film): nominated at AfD; notified $uperFan32 (talk · contribs) 01:03, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: Hypnotic (upcoming film)
      Unreleased film that has been "upcoming" since this article was written in 2019 by a disruptive now-blocked user, and does not satisfy general notability or film notability. There is nothing in this article that either implies significant coverage or indicates a release date. The name-drops of a well-known director and a better-known star do not inherit notability. The mention of the start and end of principal photography is also a name-drop, because of the myth that films are notable after principal photography. What the guideline really says is that films are not notable before principal photography, and are only notable after principal photography and before release if production itself passes general notability. The article says nothing about production except that it happened, and the references do not provide independent or secondary coverage. The references are mostly announcements of signings and other advance publicity.

      This article belongs in draft space, and can be reviewed for article space if and when the film is released. (At this point it may be in post-production limbo.) I am not unilaterally draftifying it because it has been in article space for three years (where it was put by a noiw-blocked disruptive editor), and because it is adequately sourced although the sources are crud.

      Article about a future Gaelic football tournament that is too soon and does not satisfy event notability guidelines. The one reference is not about the upcoming competition but about the 2021 championship match. There is no significant coverage because there is no documented coverage, which is in turn because the event is in the future.
      An article was created in article space and moved to draft space. A stub was then created again in article space. An unregistered editor then copy-pasted the schedule from the draft to the article, which would cause attribution problems if the article were worth keeping, but it is not.

   • Reason: Henrybuilt
     Article on design company that is written like an advertisement, but Wikipedia is not for advertisements. Naïve Google search shows that the company exists, and that the company advertises online, and finds plenty of non-independent coverage. However, the article does not provide evidence of independent secondary significant coverage. The article has been reference-bombed, so that a check of the references for whether they are independent, secondary, and significant is not feasible. The author, who has not responded to a request to declare any conflict of interest, seems to have dumped this into article space to ask Wikipedia to find the needle of independent significant coverage in the haystack of advertising. This article does not satisfy corporate notability, and it isn't our responsibility to rewrite it.

     Stub article that is essentially a dictionary definition of the term, and does not provide significant coverage except to state that persons outside the general category (that is, scheduled persons) are entitled to compete against persons in the general category. Both references are reliable sources that merely report a Supreme Court of India decision that is the basis of the second sentence. The descriptions of scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, other backward classes, and economically weaker section either are substantial articles or redirect to substantial articles. This should be merged into Reservation in India. It was originally created in article space, but was moved to draft space by User:Riteshmmec, who tagged the redirect in article space for R2. The author then converted the redirect back into an article, which now cannot be moved into draft space.

The references have not been checked in detail, but an article should speak for itself, and this article does not provide evidence of significant coverage of the subject. Subsequent coverage between now and November 2022 will probably be about the campaign, and so will not be considered to satisfy general notability. This article largely reads like a campaign brochure. If the campaign-related material were removed, not much would be left that is not already covered in 2022_United_States_House_of_Representatives_elections_in_Florida#District_10. There is also a draft which is almost identical to this article, so that draftification is not an alternative to deletion. Redirection is an alternative to deletion, and is recommended. I have not unilaterally redirected the article in order to avoid edit-warring, and because I am requesting a community decision.

      This article has no references and so is not ready for article space. There is also a draft, which was declined once as too soon, but was then created in article space anyway. The article should be deleted, and the draft left alone for improvement to be moved into article space when it is ready.

1. Korean Air Flight 2033: nominated at AfD; notified Javyriv (talk · contribs) 03:26, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Korean Air Flight 2033
     Unsourced article about a non-notable incident. An article on this topic was deleted eight years ago by Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Korean Air Flight 2033. The originator then created an article on 2 September 2022 with an edit summary including "I personally don’t know how to do the external links or references." It was then moved to draft space, and a note was left on the author's talk page, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Javyriv&type=revision&diff=1108014892&oldid=1108014130&diffmode=source, cautioning not to move the draft back to article space without references, and to use the AFC process. The originator then created this article in article space without references again. This is both a conduct issue and a content issue, but AFD is a content forum and should delete the unsourced article.
2. Seven Days (magazine): nominated at AfD; notified Congha2540 (talk · contribs) 04:00, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Seven Days (magazine)
     Article on magazine that does not satisfy magazine notability or general notability. Created in article space, then moved to draft space by User:Hey man im josh as not ready for article space. Then created again in article space by originator. The draft has now, reasonably, been cut down to a redirect to the article, but the article does not establish notability.
     A check of the references shows that none of them provide significant coverage of the magazine. One is a passing mention. One is an upload of a page from the magazine to Commons. One is a lengthy report that does not appear to be related.

   • Reason: Delhi Premier League 2022'
     Unsourced article, so failing verifiability, about a football season that does not have enough information to be encyclopedic as of 4 September 2022. One copy of the article, with no references, was created by the originator, and was then properly moved to draft space by User:Spiderone. The originator then created another copy in article space, with no references. The originator then tagged the two copies for an unnecessary history merge. What is needed is to delete the copy in article space and leave the draft standing so that references can be added, as well as including the results of matches after the matches are played.

     Actress who does not satisfy either general notability or acting notability. The only reference is to IMDB, which is not a reliable source, and is a database entry. This page is a biography of a living person but has no footnotes. An earlier version of this article was created in article space, but was correctly moved to draft space by User:Spiderone, so that this cannot be moved to draft space. The version in draft space has more information, but also has more puffery. This page does not even have enough information to be a useful stub.

     Band that does not satisfy musical notability or general notability. A check of the references shows that they are mostly trade rags, except for reference 2 in the New York Times and references 3 and 10 in Billboard magazine, which should be reliable sources, but they are not verifiable because they are set up using Proquest, which is a paywalling service. So there is no verifiable significant coverage as of 10 September 2022.

   • Reason: Robert Holloway
     This biography of a living person has verifiability problems as well as notability problems. As to verifiability, under the current cricket notability guideline, there is no statement that this individual played at the international level. There is also no mention of anything that resembles significant coverage to establish general notability. But the more basic problem is that this stub doesn't have any references. If references to reliable sources are added within seven days, they will still have to provide significant coverage.
     There probably should have been a proposed deletion, but we might as well publish this.

     Cricketer whose only reference is a database entry (no longer permitted as the only reference) and for whom no claim is made that would satisfy general notability because nothing is said about what third parties have written.

      This article is very incomplete, without even a lede sentence, although the short description suffices for that purpose, and so is only a cast listing for a future film. It also has no references. As such, it fails verifiability, general notability, and film notability. There is also a draft, Draft:Thunivu, which has been correctly declined, and has been resubmitted. It appears that this is an attempt to sneak an entry into article space. Since there is already a draft, the article should simply be deleted, and the draft can be updated and resubmitted when the film is released. I recommend that the title be extended-confirmed protected in article space to prevent further efforts to game the system.

      This article reads like an opinion piece in article space. It has twice been moved from article space to draft space, by User:Praxidicae and User:Bonadea. Both times the author has moved the article back to article space without attempting to discuss with the reviewers. There has not been any discussion on the article talk page (which was the draft talk page when the article was a draft). Maybe the author has a non-neutral point of view, since the topic is one in which a non-neutral point of view is at least as likely as a COI. The article consists in large part of excerpts from main articles, and that content will not be lost by deletion. Other than that, the introductory paragraphs are opinion.

      There is also a draft, Draft:Jean Dawson, which I have reviewed and declined. The draft contains more information than the article but does not establish notability. The subject likely is notable, but neither the article nor the draft establishes notability. There was a previous AFD that was closed on 27 August as Merge. The closer had a difficult task because the participants seemed to imply more coverage than is shown. The article now has a tag on it saying that it should be merged into the draft, but there is nothing to merge because the article has no information that is not in the draft, and neither the draft nor the article establishes notability. Either the article should be deleted and editors should be asked to improve and resubmit the draft, or the article can be expanded within seven days to be better than the current draft for a Heymann close.

      Non-notable unreleased film. The film's claim to fame is that it is India's first non-environmental film whose production was carbon-neutral. The only reference is in Digital Journal, which is a reliable source, and is an interview with the producer, and so is not independent or secondary. There is no mention of significant coverage of the green production of the film, or any aspect of the film. The article only says that the film will exist. We knew that. This article was created in article space, moved to draft space, and then moved back to article space with the edit summary

     This biography of a living person fails verifiability because it has no independent references, and has no footnotes. The reference list is only a bibliography. There is also a draft that is almost identical to the article and has been declined as not satisfying author notability. If there were no draft, this article could be moved to draft space for the addition of proper references and for review as to notability. Since there already is a draft, this article should be deleted, and the draft can be left for improvement.

     Planned television series which does not pass television notability because it is too soon. Nothing in the text of the article describes significant coverage by independent sources, and so the article does not speak for itself and does not establish general notability.
     A detailed review of the references has not yet been done, but many of the references are not independent or reliable. They include 3 Netflix references, which is the producer and so not independent, 2 Twitter, and 2 Instagram.
     There is already a draft, and draft space is the right place for a page on a future television series, so that this article (which is the same as or almost the same as the draft) should be deleted and the draft left alone.

     Fictional character whose article does not have any properly formatted independent references. Naïve Google search on David Moreau and Genegineer finds that he has fandom, but does not find any reliable sources. If no independent references are found within seven days, this article should be moved to Draft:David Moreau (Marvel Comics) because there is already a draft for a living person in draft space, and a redirect may be made in article space to a list of characters.

     Unreleased film that does not meet film notability or general notability. Originator moved it from draft space to article space with comment: "Filming has begun" and a source. There is a myth that a film becomes notable when principal photography begins. In fact, the film notability guideline is poorly written, and has been confusing for more than a decade, but it says that a film is not notable before filming has begun, and that an unreleased film in production is only notable if production itself satisfies general notability. There is nothing in this article that provides significant coverage of the production or release of the film. (It hasn't been released.) A review of the references shows that they are all the usual announcements made about an upcoming film, such as signing of the director and leading lady, and the distribution deal. All of the sources are primary. They are all reliable, but they are mostly reliably promotional.

     American football player who does not satisfy general notability or sports notability. The subject did not satisfy the old version of gridiron football notability, which has been dropped, because it does not appear that he played professionally.
     There was a draft in draft space, which was then copy-pasted into article space, and the draft was blanked, but the draft has now been restored. A history merge has been requested for this version in article space.
     The text of this article says nothing about significant coverage by independent sources. A review of the references shows that the first two are a database entry and a YouTube page and so are not significant or secondary. The third is an article in an arena football e-magazine, which is not independent because it is promoting arena football (and there is no record that he played). The fourth reference is a 404 error.

      Because of its length, it isn't likely to serve an encyclopedic purpose for the reader, and will be out of date unless it is constantly maintained by tweaking. Its purpose for other editors is better served by Categories, since these are maintained by the gnomes who categorize articles. Spot-checking of the entries shows that the persons in the list are all in one or more categories of Bangladeshi film artists, broken down by century, gender, and whether actor or director. So, as a stand-alone list article, it is useful neither to readers nor to editors.

      The only reference for this biography of a living person is a database entry, which is no longer considered sufficient to establish sports notability or general notability. This article does not mention significant coverage by independent sources.

1. Megalopolis (film): nominated at AfD; notified Rusted AutoParts (talk · contribs) 04:49, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
   • Reason: Megalopolis (film)
     Unreleased film that does not satisfy film notability or general notability. Unreleased films are only notable when production itself has been notable. There is a myth that films become notable when a reliable source states that principal photography has begun, but that is a myth, because principal photography is a necessary but not sufficient condition for notability of an upcoming film. Neither the article nor the sources say anything about principal photography except that it was planned to be in Georgia, and that it had begun, and the statements that it would be filmed in Georgia were made before the start of filming. None of the sources are independent secondary coverage. They are the usual pre-announcements that are always made about films that are in the works

     This article was one of two drafts about the film, but has been moved into article space. There had been a redirect from the title to Francis Ford Coppola, which the author moved to limbo. The originator has a right to move the article into article space, but the article does not have a right to be in article space. The other draft can be left in draft space to be reviewed when the film is released and becomes notable.

     This article is still not ready for article space. It is very incomplete, as evidenced by the multiple empty sections. It makes no mention of significant coverage that would support general notability or musical notability. This article should be in draft space until the sections are expanded to make it ready for article space, but it has already been in draft space once, and so cannot be unilaterally draftified again. I mistakenly tagged it for BLPPROD, but he is not a living person. Either expand the article within seven days for a Heymann close, or move it to draft space.

It was then moved to draft space by User:Onel5969 with instructions not to move it back to mainspace without review.

1. Brian Meshkin: nominated at AfD; notified T0mpr1c3 (talk · contribs) 22:17, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: Procedural nomination. Talk:Brian Meshkin has been nominated for deletion with the following statement, which is clearly meant to request that the article be deleted:
     Mr. Meshkin’s page should be deleted because his page is inaccurate as all charges against him have been dismissed “in the interests of justice.” As such, the statement that Mr. Meshkin is “a federally indicted entrepreneur” is completely false. To leave Mr. Meshkin’s page up despite the court’s dismissal undermines the credibility of the important work contributors provide to Wikipedia by implicitly endorsing the publication of Mr. Meshkin’s page.
     Moreover, Mr. Meshkin’s page should be deleted because his page violates Wikipedia’s One Event and Neutrality Policies. See WP:BLP1E and WP:NPOV. For instance, rather than include categories of Mr. Meshkin typically found in other BLPs, such as “Early Life,” “Personal Life,” “Honors and Awards,” “Influences,” etc., his page almost entirely focuses on one event, namely, the indictment and lawsuit that has since been dismissed. This depiction of Mr. Meshkin is entirely lopsided and ignores the other work he’s done as an executive, elected official, non-profit leader, or father. Thus as it stands, this makes Mr. Meshkin’s Wikipedia page only focused on one event, making his page inherently non-neutral.
     Lastly, and for similar reasons as stated above, Mr. Meshkin’s page should be deleted because he does not meet the notability criteria. Wikipedia’s Notability Policy provides that a person is “presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.” Further, if a person is notable for only one event, Wikipedia generally recommends that an article address the event--not the person. This is particularly true where, as here, the individual plays a major role in a minor event. In such cases, “it is not generally appropriate to have separate articles on the person and the event . . . the name of the person should redirect to the article on the incident, especially if the individual is only notable for that incident and it is all that the person is associated with in the source coverage.” (emphasis added). As mentioned, nearly half of the sources cited through Mr. Meshkin’s page relates to now-dismissed lawsuit. Therefore, his page should be deleted because the lawsuit was a minor event, negating a standalone Wikipedia page for Mr. Meshkin.
     Disclaimer: Mr. Meshkin, a non-notable, living, private citizen, has not been able to remove his page independently. As a result, K&L Gates represents Mr. Meshkin and receives compensation for representing him. KLG-DCPR (talk) 15:49, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

     This one-sentence stub on an association football player has only one source, which is a database entry. As such, it does not even attempt to satisfy general notability, because it does not indicate what reliable sources have written, except that he exists.
     Also, this surviving sentence was copy-pasted from Draft: Duran Ferree; two other sentences may have also been copied from there before being redacted here. Is this double plagiarism? If this stub is kept, a history merge with the draft will be needed, but it will not be needed if this stub is deleted.

     There are at least two problems with this article.
     First, it is undisclosed paid editing, by a now-blocked undisclosed paid editor. An article almost identical to this one was created on 7 December 2022 in article space, and was then (correctly) moved to draft space by User:MarioGom. This article was then re-created on 26 February 2023 in article space, and the originator was blocked on 27 February 2023. Draft space is already occupied by a copy of this article, which is also undisclosed paid editing, so that this copy can be moved to a bit bucket.
     Second, this article, as written, does not establish general notability, because it does not speak for itself, and does not discuss what third parties have written about the subject. It only says what his flack says about him. It says that he exists; we knew that. He likely has been written about by independent secondary sources to a significant extent, but this piece does not summarize those writings. This article does not establish biographical notability. So this article can be deleted while a copy of it is already in draft space. There is no need to review the 17 references, at least at this time, because they should verify what is in the body of the article, which says that he exists. We don't need to do the flack's work for him.
     The photograph states that it is the submitter's own work, but it was taken in the subject's mansion, because the submitter is working for the subject. But the submitter has already been correctly blocked.
     If a neutral editor wants to develop an article about the subject, the copy of this article in draft space can be a start, but is not currently ready for article space.

   • Reason: Tropical Storm Bopha (2006)
     This storm is not sufficiently notable to justify a stand-alone article. It was submitted to Articles for Creation in November 2022, and the reviewer said to discuss at the parent article talk page, Talk:2006 Pacific typhoon season. It was then resubmitted by an unregistered editor (122.*) without discussion. It was then rejected due to the lack of discussion. The 122.* editor then copy-pasted the content of the draft to Tropical Storm Bopha (2006), which had previously been a redirect to the season article, and redirected the draft to the new storm article. The weather notability guide states:

     In order to be split off, the basic rule of thumb is that a system should have had a significant impact on land.

     . This article, to the extent that it is intelligible, does not describe a significant impact on land.

   • Reason: My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3
     Unreleased film which does not satisfy the restrictive notability guidelines for future films as specified in the film notability guidelines.
     This article is about an unreleased film. The film notability guideline identifies three stages in the production cycle for films:
     *1. Planned films that have not begun production (principal photography or animation). These planned films do not satisfy film notability.
     *2. Films that are confirmed by reliable sources to have begun production, but have not been released. These films are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability in terms of significant coverage. Mere mention of the start of production does not satisfy notability.
     *3. Films that have been released, whose notability is determined by reception and reviews, or a major notable award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking.
     This film is said to have completed production, but the statement that it has completed production is unsourced, so that the film cannot be confirmed to have started or completed production. There is nothing in the text of the article that reports that production or any other film activities received significant coverage by reliable sources. So the statement that it has completed production is unverified, but even if it were verified, general notability is not satisfied.
     This title was a redirect to the franchise, but the redirect was replaced by a copy-paste from draft space. So a history merge is required if the article is kept, but the article should be deleted.

Either references and substantive content should be added to this article within seven days for a Heymann result, or it should be merged with the existing draft and the merged draft left in draft space until there are substantive results with reliable sources.

   • Reason: Pere Egbi
     Actor who does not satisfy general notability or acting notability. Acting notability requires two major roles. He has had one in The Perfect Arrangement. His other roles have not been major. One of the references is blocked by antimalware software, and so was not checked, but can be inferred to be unreliable. Two of the references are reviews of the movie in which he acted. They are significant as to the film, but not as to him. One of the references is a vanity site that displays celebrity biographies.
     There is also a draft that is the same as this article. The draft can be left alone and possibly improved. The article can be deleted.

     It isn't entirely clear whether this article is about a Sufi poet, or about a shrine at his grave, but it doesn't satisfy general notability for either a person or a place. There is no explanation of what reliable sources have written about either the person or the place. None of the references are secondary. They include a map, which shows that the place exists.

     Unreleased movie that does not satisfy future film guidelines. This is a contested draftificiation; it was moved to draft space correctly by User:Onel5969. Unreleased movies that have completed production are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability. There is nothing in this article about significant coverage by independent reliable sources. A review of the references shows that they all say that the movie will be released on 12 May; we knew that.

     Contested draftifications of two articles on local elections in the Philippines. Neither of these articles has any references, and so they fail verifiability, which is a core policy.

     The Heymann criterion will be the addition of two references to reliable sources, such as Philippine newspapers. (The references must be added to the article, not merely listed in this AFD as a [[WP:URLDUMP|URL Dump.) Not draftifying these articles again unilaterally, because that would be move-warring, so relying in AFD as the consensus process.

   • Reason: Linlang (2023 TV series)
     This is an upcoming television series that has not aired yet, and is too soon to establish television notability. The article does not discuss significant coverage by reliable sources because the only coverage is advance publicity, which is not notable and may be promotional. There is also a draft; the draft was copied into article space by the draft originator to create the article. A draft is in order, because the show will be aired, and there will be reviews. This article should be deleted, and the draft left alone to wait for the show to air.

     This article about a screenwriter has only one reference, vprogids.nl.

    • Reason: Grace Wong Kit-cheng
      This biography of a living person of a politician is not verifiable. The article states that she is a member of the Legislative Assembly of Macau. If her status as a subnational legislator is verifiable, then she passes political notability. There is one reference, in Chinese, which is http://macaodaily.com/html/2017-05/07/content_1176995.htm . However, a machine translation shows that it makes no mention of the subject. It is a statement by someone else.
      There is also a draft, so that this article is not a candidate for draftification, but this article appears to have been copy-pasted from the draft, and a history merge will be needed if the article is kept. Both the article and the draft require heavy copy-editing for grammar and usage if they are kept. The draft should be kept for improvement.
12. The Bibites: nominated at AfD; notified Rtyjhnghfn (talk · contribs) 03:48, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
    • Reason: The Bibites
      This article is about a game that is a simulation of evolving life. There is nothing in the article that implies that the game satisfies game notability or software notability, because there is no mention of any significant coverage by third parties. An examination of the references shows that none of them are independent or secondary.

      This list doesn't even explain what its title means, let alone whether it satisfies list notability. It doesn't even link to Myanmar National League or explain that it is about association football in Myanmar. It was draftified once, and so should not be draftified unilaterally a second time. The only reference is a sports database, which would not establish notability for a player, or for a team, or for a list.

      Article about upcoming film that does not satisfy the notability guidelines for future films.

     This article is about an unreleased film, and does not satisfy general notability or film notability. Unreleased films are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability.

2. International Conference on Clifford Algebras: nominated at AfD; notified Molitorppd22 (talk · contribs) 22:20, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: International Conference on Clifford Algebras
     This article is about a triennial academic conference, but the article provides no indication of general notability or event notability, because it says nothing about what third parties have written about the conference or why the conference is notable, such as what mathematical accomplishments have been announced at the conference, or what mathematical collaborations have resulted from the conference. The only reference appears to be a biography of William Kingdon Clifford, the developer of Clifford algebras. The book is probably evidence of the notability of its subject, William Kingdon Clifford, and of his main work, Clifford algebras, and the articles about them are not being questioned. This conference may be run-of-the-mill, in that there are many annual or triennial academic conferences, some of which are notable, and this article does not say why this one is.
     There is also a draft, which appears to be identical to this article. This article cannot be moved unilaterally to draft space because there is already a draft. So this article should be deleted while the draft is retained for possible expansion as to why this conference is notable.

This article has been draftified once, by User:Exemplo347, and then declined by User:AngusWOOF, but was then also copied back into article space by the originator. The first paragraph of the History section would need to be deleted as peacockery if this article otherwise should be kept, but it doesn't address any of the musical notability criteria, and doesn't address general notability. The draft can be left in draft space to be worked on by any neutral editors.

   • Reason: Lalita Devi Temple,Naimisharanya
     This article is incomprehensible. It was moved to draft space once by User:Eejit43 who stated that it both needed better sources and had too many problems of language or grammar. Sources were then added, and the article was moved back to article space without addressing the grammatical issues, which render the article of very little encyclopedic value. The article has already been draftified once, and the originator has contested the draftification, so a second unilateral draftification would be move warring. The article should be either stubbed, or sent back to draft space for rework with instructions to use AFC for review so that it will be reviewed by an English-proficient editor prior to being returned to article space.

   • Reason: List of night vision devices
     This list article has a few problems, the most serious of which is that it has no sources. It also does not indicate what the criterion is for inclusion, and so does not satisfy list notability. The criterion isn't having a Wikipedia article, since some of the entries are not linked to articles. This list was moved to draft space by User:BoyTheKingCanDance with the statement that it has no sources (because it has no sources). It was then moved back to article space by its creator without adding sources. This is a contested draftification and so is being sent to AFD.

     There is no use of Black Table in Table Mountain, the target of this redirect, only of Back Table. This redirect has only been viewed 11 times in the first half of 2023. There is a draft, Draft:Black Table in review, concerning a novel, that is, an unrelated topic. The novel draft is not ready for article space, but might be ready for article space in the near future, and review has called attention to this useless redirect. The alternative to deleting this redirect when the novel is accepted would be including a hatnote in the article about the novel, but that would be a link to a misspelled version of the name of the geographic feature.

     A naïve Google search shows that this appears to be an unreleased film. IMDB, which is an unreliable source, says that it is upcoming. IMDB also has an incomprehensible summary, which was copied into this article, but which I have removed as copyvio. (The IMDB contributor apparently is not fluent with English.) This article was in mainspace, but was moved into draft space, citing paid editing and sockpuppetry. It was then declined, with the instruction to add reviews when the film was released. It has now been moved back into article space without the reviews (because it hasn't been released). Either the cast listing can be moved into draft space until the film is released and reviewed, or it can be blown up, and started over when the film is released and reviewed.

     This seems to be an unreleased film. It seems to be an unreleased film because one of the sources announced that the film would be released in June (meaning 2023). However, a Google search does not find any reviews, and does find references to the film being upcoming and pending release. The references are the usual announcements naming the director and the cast.

     None of the references indicate that the film has been released. This article was moved to draft space once with the notation to wait for release, and has been moved back to article space, and does not seem to have been released. The plot is unreferenced and therefore unverified. (At least, the copyvio detector didn't find it.) Since the plot is unverified, there isn't enough to be worth draftifying. When it is released, a new article can be written.

   • Reason: 2023 World Junior Wrestling Championships
     This article about a future sports competition does not provide enough information to establish general notability or event notability. The history shows that an article was created in article space and draftified, and then another copy was created in article space again, so there is already a draft. The draft can be left alone for expansion, probably immediately after the competition occurs. A review of the references shows that none of them at this time are independent significant sources. They are either the sports federation's own or database pages or both.

     The only connection of the title of this redirect, Judeo-Kashani, and the target of this redirect, Soi language, is that the special-purpose infobox includes a link for Judeo-Kashani as one of six links to information about endangered languages. The redirect provides no useful information for a reader.

   • Reason: The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We
     Unreleased album that does not satisfy any of the musical notability criteria (because it has not been released yet). A check of the references shows that they are advance announcements, or interviews with the artist. None of them are independent secondary coverage.

   • Reason: 2025 FIBA Under-19 Basketball World Cup
     This stub does not have enough information to be encyclopedic at this point, as is illustrated by the four red links to the qualifying tournaments. It does not satisfy event notability. A naïve Google search shows that the only coverage is routine coverage. The two references are not independent because they are both FIBA. There is also a draft, which is the same as this article. The draft should be kept, and can be expanded as the event is closer. For now, it is too soon for an article that only says that the tournament will happen.
9. 2023 Piala Belia: nominated at AfD; notified FM Malaysia (talk · contribs) 22:03, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: 2023 Piala Belia
     Youth football tournament with no current sources. The only reference is from February 2023 and states that the tournament is scheduled. That doesn't make it notable. Mostly this article reports unverified scores of games. Verifiability in Wikipedia is necessary; it is not a nice-to-have. This article has already been moved to draft space twice, and so should not be moved to draft space unilaterally a third time, and besides there are now two copies, one in draft space and one in article space. The article should be deleted from article space and left in draft space. The Heymann criterion is to provide real up-to-date sourcing rather than just move-warring.

1. Vaazhai (2023 film): nominated at AfD; notified VendhanKovan (talk · contribs) 21:51, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: Vaazhai (2023 film)
     Unreleased film that does not satisfy the notability guidelines for unreleased films, which are only notable is production itself has received significant coverage by independent sources. This article only says that the film is planned and that filming has started, so the article says nothing that implies film notability prior to release. The sources are largely in Tamil, but have been machine-translated, which is good enough to see that there isn't independent secondary coverage. None of the references are independent. They say that the film is upcoming. We knew that, but that doesn't make it notable. Maybe it will be when it is released.

   • Reason: Rudhraksh J
     The actual subject of this article is an actor who has had one major role and so does not satisfy acting notability. There has already been a deletion discussion using his full name; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rudhraksh Jaiswal, and Rudhraksh Jaiswal is a redirect. This article has an abbreviated form of his name as a novel method of gaming of article titles. The AFD was tainted by sockpuppetry by both the Keep and the Delete voters, but that does not warrant trying to evade the name. The redirect is not locked, so the originator could have expanded the redirect, or asked for Deletion Review. A review of the article shows that this article also does not establish acting notability or general notability. A review of the references shows that they are not about the actor, but about films about the Mahabharata, an interview with an actress, and an interview with the subject.

5. B'laster Holdings: nominated at AfD; notified BB38532 (talk · contribs) 22:07, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: B'laster Holdings
     This article, in article space, is one of three articles in three namespaces about this company that does not satisfy corporate notability because the coverage is not independent secondary coverage. The three articles are:
     *B'laster Holdings (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs), the subject of this AFD;
     *Draft:B'laster Holdings (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     *User:BB38532/sandbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
     The first and third are the work of User:BB38532, who is a single-purpose account, and the second is partly the work of BB38532, and also of another SPA who has declined to answer whether they have a conflict of interest. The existence of the two articles in draft and user space is only evidence of an apparent campaign to publish an article. The draft was declined five times and has been rejected twice.
     So does B'laster Holdings satisfy corporate notability? An article should speak for itself and explain why the company is notable, but the article consists of what the company says about itself, not what third parties have written. The references are not independent secondary coverage, but include press releases, an interview, and trade publications.

This article was created in 2009 with no references, and was tagged as having no references until 2011, when one reference was added, which is still the only reference, so now the article is tagged as needing additional references.

      This article about an unreleased film was created in article space and then correctly moved to draft space by User:Karnataka as too soon. The originator then contested the draftification by creating another copy of the article in article space.
      There are three stages of development for films:
      :1. Planned films which have not begun production. These should not have free-standing articles. Sometimes a redirect may be in order, such as to the producer, or the film series.
      :2. Films that have begun production, but have not been released. These films are only notable if production itself has been notable. A passing mention that production has started (or finished) does not establish notability.
      :3. Films that have been released, whether for theatrical viewing, for television, for film festivals, or otherwise. These films are notable based on reception and reviews, or for other reasons.
      :This film is in group 2, films that have begun production. The article makes no mention of anything notable about production.
      This film is too soon, and the article should be deleted from mainspace. When the film is released, the draft can be updated and resubmitted.

There is one television role listed, about which List of Sunset Beach characters says: Brad Niklaus never had much of a story on this show.. This stub has existed since 2007, and has never had any reliable sources, and has been tagged since 2019 as needing reliable sources. The Heymann criterion is to add two reliable sources within seven days.

     This is an unreleased film. Unreleased films are only notable if the production satisfies general notability, which is seldom the case, and this article says only that the film is in post-production. The references are mostly about the teaser, and so are promotional rather than encyclopedic, or are interviews. The article is a reasonable summary of what the sources say, because neither the article nor the sources say much.
     There was a draft, which has been blanked by its originator. The draft should be deleted as blanked by the originator, and this article should be draftified.

     None of the references are significant. Some of them refer to awards received by the film, which apparently is entered in festivals of unknown prestige and sometimes have received awards of unknown prestige, and we know that the film industry has many vanity awards. The film may be notable, but the drafts have been declined, and further work may be required to establish notability. Even if the film were notable, the references are all passing mentions, with no significant coverage. If the film draft is accepted, a redirect from the filmmaker to the film may be in order, but we don't make redirects from article space to draft space, and the BLP needs deleting.

     Contested AFC submission of biography of violinist who does not appear to satisfy musical notability. A draft was submitted twice and declined twice, so then this article, which appears to be identical to the declined drafts, was copied into article space. (This is not a copy-paste because there is only one author.) The article (like the draft) has been reference-bombed, so a source analysis has not been performed, at least not now. The peacock language is strongly suggestive of conflict of interest. If the originator wants to establish notability, they can specify which three sources should be evaluated. I have spot-checked the sourced, and they are largely primary, such as mentions of his performance in concerts (and playing in concerts is what violinists do). There is already a (declined) draft, so if the article does not establish musical notability or general notability, and it does not, it should be deleted.

     This article has no references, and verifiability in Wikipedia is not a nice-to-have because it is required. It was once moved to draft space, correctly, by User:DIVINE, but has been moved back to article space, and so is a contested draftification. Wikipedia should have either a draft or an article on the next general election in a country in which a general election is mandated by a given date, but the authors were already once told to find references.

   • Reason: Footballer who does not satisfy general notability or sports notability. Contested draftification. This article was originally created in article space, but (correctly) draftified by User:Paul Vaurie for more sources. What was also needed was better sources. More sources were added, but none of them are significant coverage, and another copy was created in article space.

     Since there is also a draft, the article should be deleted, and the draft can be kept for improvement. The article was created by a copy-paste from draft space, so a history merge would be in order if the article were kept, but it does not need keeping.

     Tennis player who does not satisfy general notability or tennis notability. This article is a contested draftification, which was moved from article space to draft space correctly by User:TheChunky the first time for better sources. The second draftification was technically incorrect, but was a response to the failure to provide the requested reliable sources. The one reference says that she played in the main draw of the Hong Kong Open, which is not one of the highest-level tournaments listed in the tennis notability guideline.

     This biography of a living person of a cartoonist has no footnotes, and footnotes are required for biographies of living persons. It does not qualify for proposed deletion of BLPs because it has external links. They have been checked, and they do not contain significant coverage by independent sources. Two of them appear to be listings of his works, which do not verify basic information.

2. I need more bullets: nominated at AfD; notified Catgull1 (talk · contribs) 11:03, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

Proposed for Deletion by User:OutsideNormality, but then deprodded by originator. The only source, Know your meme, has been noted to be an unreliable source.
3. Akasya Durağı: nominated at AfD; notified Hero: 108 (talk · contribs) 17:02, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: This article on a Turkish television series has no references and so does not satisfy either verifiability or notability. It consists of a one-paragraph overview, and a long cast list in an infobox, in which a majority of the entries are red links. There is nothing about what third parties have said about the show. (Maybe it has been reviewed, and maybe it hasn't.) It has been tagged as having no sources since 2015, and still has no sources eight years later.

1. 1973 Lancashire County Council election: nominated at AfD; notified Djack1770 (talk · contribs) 04:47, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: Contested draftification. This article was moved from article space to draft space by User: Significa liberdade saying that more sources were needed. It was moved back to article space without adding sources. There is only one source, The Elections Centre of Plymouth University, which is a reliable primary source.
2. Aspen Academy: nominated at RfD; Target: Savage, Minnesota (notified); notified Alex80454 (talk · contribs) 06:10, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: This redirect is useless because there is no reference to the school in the article. Often when an elementary school or middle school is redirected, there is a list of schools in the target article. In this case, there is no list in which the school appears. The Heywood criterion is to insert a mention of at least the school and possibly other schools.
3. Utamo: nominated at AfD; notified Cergun62 (talk · contribs) 21:42, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: Contested draftification of an article about a grandiose planned Saudi resort development. Draftified by User:AntiDionysius as promotional and advertising. Moved back to article space by its originator. The text of the article is about what the Saudi government says about the planned resort, not about what third parties have said about it, so that it does not speak for itself. A check of the references shows that none of them are independent sources. They are all either publications by the Saudi government, or press releases by the Saudi government to news media, and so it does not satisfy general notability.

     This article is about a floating industrial complex on the Saudi shore of the Red Sea. However, the article does not speak for itself and does not provide any indication that the complex, which is still under construction is notable, because they do not describe what third parties have said. A review of the references was needed. None of the references are independent; they are in the nature of press releases:

7. Zheng Chongbin (Artist): nominated at AfD; notified Artbranch (talk · contribs) 18:54, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
   • Reason: Artist whose artistic notability has not been shown. This article was declined twice in AFC, and then moved to article space, and moved back to draft space by User:Naraht, and then moved to article space again, so that this is a contested draftification. The title of this article appears to be an unnecessary disambiguation, since there is no Zheng Chongbin, but further review shows that Zheng Chongbin is a protected title due to repeated recreation, so that the addition of the disambiguator is gaming of titles. The article has been reference-bombed, so an assessment of the sources has not been done. If the originator thinks that this is a better and more neutral biography than the deleted pages, the proper procedure should be to discuss with the protecting administrator, User:Jimfbleak, or request unprotection at RFPP, and if that is not successful, request Deletion Review, rather than adding a disambiguator to game the title.

1. Miss Universe Myanmar 2017: nominated at AfD; notified Ko Ko431 (talk · contribs) 05:51, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This article has no references, and so is inconsistent with the principle of verifiability. The national beauty pageant may have bee notable, if reliable sources covered it, but this article about it is not. Since this article contains the names of living persons, the policy on biographies of living persons applies, which says that they should be supported by footnotes. Draft was created by now-blocked sockpuppet, and was then rescued from G13 by being moved to article space, but fails verifiability.
2. Rakul Preet Singh’s Awards and Nominations: nominated at AfD; notified Kinadhaks (talk · contribs) 04:24, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This article was created in draft space and declined in AFC as already contained in the parent article, and then moved to article space by the author. The issue in this case is not notability so much as balance and undue weight. This is a split of an article that does not need to be split because it is only Class C.
     There do not appear to be any additional awards listed in this article that are not in the parent article, so it is not necessary to merge.
3. Draft:Tim Hamons: nominated at MfD; notified ArtofAwakening (talk · contribs) 05:48, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: There are at least two problems with this draft. First, it is a biography of a living person with no references. Unreferenced BLPs may be deleted. Since this was a new submission to AFC, it would normally not be tagged for deletion initially, because the originator can add references and resubmit. Second, however, see the first line, which is the feedback from the bot that wrote the BLP. The verifiability problem of the combination of no references and apparent authorship by artificial intelligence should be enough reason to delete.

     This user page is a battleground statement, and Wikipedia is not a battleground.

   • Reason: Demon Slayer
     This article is about an unreleased movie. It exists in both draft space and article space. Maybe some editors think that creating both an article and a draft prevents moving the article into draft space. Articles on unreleased movies only satisfy film notability criteria if production itself has been notable. There is nothing in this article about production. The articles are mostly about the schedule for theatrical release of the film including a world tour of theatrical viewings. Do the sources refer to production or contribute to film notability? No. A check of the references shows that they are mostly just announcements of dates of release.

The selected articles are partial copies of 195 articles (75 articles, 75 battles, 45 biographies), and the copies have not been edited since 2013. This portal has a better ratio of portal views to article views than others recently nominated for deletion, but that is because the viewing of the article Military history of Europe is poor

     While the battles were fought 245 years ago, the historiography of this conflict is continuing to evolve, so a reader who is interested in an overview of the subject would do better to read the current articles rather than old snapshots. The current content can be viewed from the lead article by means of links and categories, so that a portal is not necessary.

The author then created this article, which is the same as the draft, in article space. This bypassed AFC review, and bypassing AFC review is permitted except for paid editors. Review of the sources shows that this article does not establish biographical notability. Only the first reference is independent. The first reference, a newspaper account of her election, is a good source. The other four sources are associated with the subject or with organizations with which she is associated:
     {| class="wikitable"
     ! Reference Number !! Reference !! Comments !! Independent !! Significant !! Reliable !! Secondary
     |-
     | 1 || sandiegotribune.com || Description of her election as Mayor || Yes || Yes || Yes || Yes
     |-
     | 2 || www.coastal.ca.gov || States that she is a member of this commission || No || No || Yes || No
     |-
     | 3 || www.paloma-aguirre.com/ || Her personal web site || No || Yes || No || No
     |-
     | 4 || www.imperialbeachca.gov || The city's web site || No || Yes || ? || No
     |-
     | 5 || caseagrant.ucsd.edu || A long account, that appears to have been written by her || No || Yes || Yes || No
     |}
     So this article can be deleted, at least for now, rather than being reviewed and sanitized due to the conflict of interest, and the draft can be left for improvement. This does not mean that she is not notable, or that she is notable, but that the article does not establish notability, and so the questions of tone and neutrality do not need to be addressed.

2. User:ERIC SAMUEL KUHOGA: nominated at MfD; notified ERIC SAMUEL KUHOGA (talk · contribs) 00:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This user page is a resume by a user who has made no other use of Wikipedia than to post this resume, and so can be deleted as U5. It is also an unreferenced biography of a living person.
3. User:LeniRico: nominated at MfD; notified LeniRico (talk · contribs) 01:56, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: On its face, this user page is an unreferenced autobiography of a living person. Because it is unreferenced, there is no way to be sure that it is or is not true, but on two readings, it seems to be the originator's fantasy. If it is not true, then it is a hoax. If it is true, it is still an unreferenced biography of a living person.
4. User:Edison Broce Urriola: nominated at MfD; notified Edison Broce Urriola (talk · contribs) 14:09, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This user page is an unreferenced autobiography of a living person. The subject appears to be politically notable, but that notability is not verified, and verifiability is a non-negotiable policy. Creating this fake article in user space was the only activity by this editor.
5. User:Jamayare21: nominated at MfD; notified Jamayare21 (talk · contribs) 15:24, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Machine translation shows that this is an unreferenced draft article about a village in Hiraan in Somalia. It is the only contribution of an editor who did nothing else. It does not qualify for U5 because it appears to be a poor-quality draft, but it is not about to be part of the English Wikipedia either in its current form or in a machine translation.
6. User:منجى محروس: nominated at MfD; notified منجى محروس (talk · contribs) 15:36, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Machine translation from Arabic shows that this is a very long and very poorly organized discussion of Christian scriptures, by an editor who created it in their user page, and has not used Wikipedia otherwise. It is not clear whether this was meant to be a draft article or a school assignment or whatever, so it is not obviously a candidate for U5, but it can never be brought into any usable form.
7. User:Guillermo Morán Loyola: nominated at MfD; notified Guillermo Morán Loyola (talk · contribs) 15:43, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: A machine translation of this user page from the Spanish begins: "Architectural synthesis. Compendium of personal research." So this appears to be original research by an editor whose only contribution was this original research. It will never be a viable draft, both because it has no references, and because it is original research.
8. User:Aidil2018: nominated at MfD; notified Aidil2018 (talk · contribs) 17:08, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This user page consists of predictions of political events, and outlines for predictions of sports events, that were in the future at the time that it was created, but are now in the past. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. These predictions were the primary editing of two user accounts, almost certainly one human, who made only a few other edits. They are marginal as to U5, and were crystal balling.
9. User:Plgu-lds: nominated at MfD; notified Plgu-lds (talk · contribs) 23:37, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This user page and this sandbox appear to be almost identical, and are the only edits made by this editor. They are almost certainly copied from a copyrighted source (although I did not find it on a brief search). They are not in any form resembling drafts and so do not appear to be related to Wikipedia. They are probably U5 and probably G12.
10. User:Giomurtaz: nominated at MfD; notified Giomurtaz (talk · contribs) 23:54, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Machine translation shows that this is a copy from Wikipedia of a large amount of information about Minecraft. This has been the only editing by this user, except that the user talk page is a copy of the Roblox page, probably by the same user but logged out, and in English. This is probably U5 and in any case is not related to the English Wikipedia.
11. User:DON RAJA: nominated at MfD; notified DON RAJA (talk · contribs) 02:20, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This user page is an old copy of Portal:Geography, and is the only edit made by this one-edit wonder. As a copy of a portal, it is a redundant fork that has none of the navigational features of a portal.
12. User:Rayan al-ahmary: nominated at MfD; notified Rayan al-ahmary (talk · contribs) 02:40, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This user page, which is the only edit by this editor, appears to be a translation of a copy of Samarium cobalt magnet from Arabic. It is a redundant fork, and so not a current copy of Wikipedia's information on the subject, and an attribution violation. The question that is known only to the editor, if even to them, is why an editor would do nothing but create a translation of a page into Arabic and save it as a user page. Regardless of why, it is not permitted.
13. User:Suraj Kr Sarkar: nominated at MfD; notified Suraj Kr Sarkar (talk · contribs) 04:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

14. User:Ill Camille: nominated at MfD; notified Ill Camille (talk · contribs) 04:58, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This user page appears to be an unreferenced autobiography of a living person, and is promotional. This has been the only editing by this editor. Either this is not intended as a Wikipedia draft, and is web hosting by an editor who is not otherwise using Wikipedia, or it is intended as a Wikipedia draft, in which case it is an unreferenced biography of a living person.
15. Artur Khachatryan: nominated at AfD; notified TheShadowCrow (talk · contribs) 22:16, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: Boxer whose only reference is a database entry. There is a draft for a diplomat, Draft: Artur Khachatryan, which will otherwise require disambiguation. The need for disambiguation is not a reason to delete, but the lack of sports notability is
16. User:YangZzz: nominated at MfD; notified YangZzz (talk · contribs) 06:18, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This user page appears to be a translation or machine translation from Chinese of https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BA%8C%E5%8D%81%E4%BA%8C_(2017%E5%B9%B4%E7%94%B5%E5%BD%B1) . As such, it is an attribution violation, and a redundant fork from the Chinese Wikipedia.

18. Standard database management analysis: nominated at AfD; notified Biscuittin (talk · contribs) 18:32, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: No content and no sources. Created by now-blocked user. Tagged for eight years as having no sources, and for seven years as having no content. It is not clear to a database engineer what the topic or topics were supposed to be, but the titles of the empty sections seem to imply that was meant to promote a methodology. Heymann criterion is for someone to figure out what if anything this was supposed to be within 7 days.
19. Raja Mahendra: nominated at RfD; Target: Raja (notified); notified Arcarius (talk · contribs) 04:57, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This redirect is to a section of the article that no longer exists. The section was added by a now-blocked sockpuppeteer, and the redirect was also provided by the sockpuppeteer. The section no longer exists, so the redirect is useless.
20. Draft:Sheep language: nominated at MfD; notified MON38 (talk · contribs) 17:02, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This draft was declined as a copy of Yan yan tethera, but it is not an accurate copy of Yan yan tethera, because it has been tweaked and diddled with to introduce obscenities, and so probably qualifies for speedy deletion as G3, vandalism.
21. Robert Glen: nominated at AfD; notified Jmorrison230582 (talk · contribs) 01:09, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: The only reference for this stub biography of a footballer is a database entry, so this stub no longer satisfies sports notability and does not satisfy general notability. Draftification will provide six months to find significant coverage.

    • Reason: This is the same as Draft:Shaheedallll and is U5, Wikipedia is not for web hosting. No other contributions by author.
23. Draft:Ryan Daou (The Kingpin Of Addis Ababa): nominated at MfD; notified Khaled Tarabey (talk · contribs) 20:51, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

1. 2024 World Aquatics Artistic Swimming World Cup: nominated at AfD; notified Hshezsvsbebe (talk · contribs) 22:20, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This page has no references, and so fails both verifiability and general notability. It has been moved to draft space twice, by User:Hey man im josh and User:Wikishovel, and moved back to article space twice by the originator with no apparent improvement.
2. Oluwadunsin Oyekan: nominated at AfD; notified Victoryvicto (talk · contribs) 04:07, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Non-notable clergy person and musician. There is nothing in this article that satisfies musical notability or general notability. The one reference says that he exists. Existence != Notability.
3. User:Tokyo5359/sandbox: nominated at MfD; notified Tokyo5359 (talk · contribs) 16:57, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This is another stupid copy from some web page into a Wikipedia sandbox, again about artificial intelligence, and displaying human stupidity. This was submitted to AFC, but is clearly not a real draft. This may be G5, but we can let CheckUser determine that.

1. Denice Zamboanga: nominated at AfD; notified JRM2018 (talk · contribs) 04:44, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: An article on this mixed martial artist was deleted three years ago after Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Denice Zamboanga as failing to meet either mixed martial arts notability or general notability. At the time, there were also multiple drafts, probably because someone was trying to game the system. The originators were then blocked for sockpuppetry. This article does not differ materially from the deleted article. The subject still is not top-ten-ranked, and so does not meet mixed martial arts notability. The article does not speak for itself and explain how the subject meets general notability. The subject's association with the ONE Championship is now verified, but "so what?", participation in the ONE Championship is not grounds for notability. The article has been reference-bombed, but nothing in the article refers to significant coverage in an article that does not speak for itself. This article differs enough from the deleted article so that speedy deletion is not in order; but it does not differ enough from the deleted article to avoid deletion.
2. Matias Fernandez-Pardo: nominated at AfD; notified EpicAdventurer (talk · contribs) 16:16, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Association football player who does not satisfy general notability, and does not satisfy football notability criteria because those redirect to basic sports notability which redirects to general notability. This is a contested draftification. There are three references. The first of them is a database entry which shows that he plays association football. The second and third are articles in Dutch, which, on machine translation, are about the team, and not about him.

3. User:Dull bull/sandbox: nominated at MfD; notified Dull bull (talk · contribs) 19:47, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This is a non-obvious hoax. A naïve Google search finds no evidence that Gatorade was invented by Sean Simms. Our article shows that it was invented by Robert Cade and others. There is a Sean Simms who played American football and became an actor, and does not appear to have been associated with Gatorade. There is no evidence that any Sean Simms played for the New York Yankees. If this were not invented, it would be an unreferenced biography of a living person, which is not permitted but could be ignored in a sandbox. As it is, this is a non-obvious hoax.
4. Border 2 (film): nominated at AfD; notified TheSlumPanda (talk · contribs) 18:49, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Planned film that does not satisfy film notability guidelines or general notability, and in particular does not satisfy future film notability guidelines. Unreleased films are only notable if production, that is, principal photography, has begun, and production itself is notable. This film has only been announced. The four references are all nearly the same, simply announcements that the director plans to make the film.

1. Luis Olaso: nominated at AfD; notified KSA13 (talk · contribs) 01:46, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Footballer whose article has no footnotes, and whose only references are external links to database entries, and so does not meet general notability or sports notability in its current state. The article says that he played for the Spanish national team, which is probably true but unverified, and there isn't a football notability guideline that says that this is notability or presumed notability. The Heymann criterion is to find two reliable sources that provide significant coverage within seven days.

2. Premium Guard Inc: nominated at AfD; notified Ambuj0070 (talk · contribs) 10:59, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Premium Guard Inc.
     This article on an automotive filter company is written from the company's point of view, and says what the company says about itself, rather than what third parties say about the company. It does not satisfy general notability or corporate notability. The three references are all press releases.

     The first sentence after the lede is

     That reads like marketing buzzspeak.
3. Tariq Chauhan: nominated at AfD; notified Infofox2656 (talk · contribs) 19:10, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: In its current form, this biography of a living person makes no reference to anything that is said by third parties about the subject, and so does not satisfy general notability. The one reference is a press release which makes a passing mention of the subject, which is not independent coverage or secondary coverage. It states that the subject is the co-founder of EFS Facilities Services Group, but an article on that group has been deleted for lack of corporate notability, so there is no good redirect target.
4. Crooked Boy: nominated at AfD; notified Flyless Kyle (talk · contribs) 06:21, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This article does not satisfy musical notability because it has no charting information and does not otherwise satisfy any of the musical notability criteria, and does not satisfy general notability because it does not refer to significant coverage by third parties. It was unilaterally moved from draft space to article space by the page creator with the edit summary It's been too long, so draftification is not appropriate. The Heymann criterion is to add charting information within six days.
     *Draftify as nominator.
5. List of Playboy Interviews: nominated at AfD; notified GimmeChoco44 (talk · contribs) 06:38, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This list is very incomplete, and only includes interview subjects for some years in the twentieth century, and none in the twenty-first century. The only sources are the Playboy magazine archives in which the interview appeared, so that there is no independent sourcing to establish list notability.
     *Draftify as nominator. This might be a useful list article when completed.
6. Peter Selvaratnam: nominated at RfD; Target: Mandibular notch (notified); notified Abishe (talk · contribs) 07:15, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: There doesn’t seem to be any mention of Peter Selvaratnam at Mandibular notch, and there doesn’t seem to be any mention of Mandibular notch in the article that previously existed at Peter Selvaratnam before it was cut down to a redirect.
7. Marek Małecki: nominated at AfD; notified Lugnuts (talk · contribs) 01:07, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Equestrian who does not satisfy sports notability. There are two references. The first one is a database entry, and database entries do not establish sports notability. The second is an obituary, which may count toward general notability but is the only significant source. He competed in the Olympics, but does not have Olympic notability because he did not receive a medal.

8. Draft:JackSucksAtLife: nominated at MfD; notified Strugglehouse (talk · contribs) 19:53, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This draft is being tendentiously resubmitted in order to try to create an article on a YouTuber who has been found to be non-notable in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jack Massey Welsh in December 2018. That title has been salted.
     It was then recreated as JackSucksAtLife, an attempt to game the name, but was renominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/JackSucksAtLife, and speedily deleted as G4 in October 2020. That title has also been salted.
     A draft was then created again in May 2023 and submitted, and declined twice. I then Rejected the draft in November 2023, because the subject had already been found to be non-notable in two AFDs, and no real effort was being made to address the issue of notability. It was then resubmitted later in November 2023, with no attempt to discuss the rejection. I had said, in my rejection, that the draft should not be resubmitted without discussing the rejection (but we don't expect ultras to follow the instructions). It has then been declined two more times, and then Rejected again by User:CFA (thank you). The reviewers couldn't accept this draft even if we wanted to accept it, so continuing to submit it is useless. If the proponents actually have new sources that they want considered, and so are requesting that one of the titles be desalted, they should ask for community discussion at Deletion Review rather than just pointlessly resubmitting, which is wasting their time and that of the reviewers, who can't accept the draft even if wanted to accept it. So I am asking for community discussion to delete this draft.
9. Edgardo Defortuna: nominated at AfD; notified Ashthetic (talk · contribs) 03:40, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Edgardo Defortuna
     There are two problems with this biographical article about a Florida businessman. The first is that violates neutral point of view. The second is that it does not satisfy general notability.
     The article reads as if it was written by the subject's real estate company, because it may have been written by the subject's company. The last two paragraphs, Philanthropy and Civic Involvement, and Honors and Awards, have no references. They were written to describe the subject as favorably as possible. The section on Family Matters and the Next Generation is also a puff piece, and is mostly about his wife rather than about him.
     The references are not independent coverage, and mostly read like press releases. References 3 and 4 appear to be variations of the same press release.

     This is not the first article about this businessman. A prior article in 2017 was deleted as G5 and G11. An article on 6 June 2024 was deleted as G11. A draft was created on 19 June, and this article was created on 25 July, by the same editor, and they are similar. This article and the draft may be toned-down versions of the spam piece; I have not seen the spam piece and do not want to see it. The Heymann criterion is to find three independent reliable secondary sources within seven days. Otherwise, the originator will be able to find real sources for the draft and submit it for review.

1. Safavid Capture of Mesopotamia (1623-1624): nominated at AfD; notified Stickyrainbow (talk · contribs) 23:52, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: This article has no useful encyclopedic content about its subject, the Safavid capture of Mesopotamia. There is no lede section, and two of the three paragraphs are not about the campaign. The first paragraph is background, and the second paragraph is about the victorious commander. The infobox says nothing, because the strength and the losses are unknown. The third paragraph is partly about a military victory without describing the victory.
     The sentence

     This text aims to cover key aspects of his reign: his rise to power, consolidation, military successes, and the establishment of Isfahan

     is not only not encyclopedic, but reads as if it was copied from a book.
2. Aniruddhacharya: nominated at AfD; notified Dympies (talk · contribs) 05:24, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Contested draftification. Article about self-publicizing Indian religious leader. The article is about what the subject and his followers say about him, not what third parties say. The sources include slideshows of information about the subject, which appear to be paid, and puff pieces and press releases. The article was draftified by User:Chaotic Enby with the statement: it needs better quality sources. They clarified that criticism with: Sources of the type "Know the net worth of X person!" are often celebrity gossip and not up to Wikipedia's reliability standards.. I concur with the criticism of the sources. The author added more sources that were no improvement and resubmitted.

1. Shyam Sunder Sharan: nominated at AfD; notified Rkrbhardwaj (talk · contribs) 19:12, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Shyam Sunder Sharan
     Politician who acts as a spokesperson for a political party in the state of Bihar, and does not satisfy political notability or general notability. The subject is not a member of a national or state legislature and so does not satisfy political notability. Review of the references shows that only the first of them is possibly significant coverage in an independent source. The others are a press release, and two statements issued by the subject as spokesperson for the party, so that they are not independent.
