August 2022
[edit]- 1889 Wake Forest Baptists football team: nominated at AfD; notified MisterCake (talk · contribs) 23:06, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Insignificant WP:PERMASTUB on a minor football team. The season (literally a list of stats) doesn't have WP:SIGCOV.
- Template:Cablegate timeline: nominated at TfD; notified SlimVirgin (talk · contribs) 23:12, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: An unnecessary sidebar that could be integrated into the article's prose. It's only used and linked to once, which is from United States diplomatic cables leak.
- Template:India census population: nominated at TfD; notified Gppande (talk · contribs) 00:01, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: {{Historical populations}} already exists, and has more features. This sidebar is not necessary. The usages should be converted and this template deleted (or, if wanted, redirected).
- Anda Butuc: nominated at AfD; notified Melania22 (talk · contribs) 20:50, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Non-notable gymnast. I could not find a reliable source on her. The sources in Google News are all tabloid-y mentioning her only accompanying her husband(? fiancée?), or briefly mention her name in relation to gymnastics. Digi Sport, ProSport, etc. are really poor-quality.
- Val Holten: nominated at AfD; notified Mattinbgn (talk · contribs) 21:24, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Unable to establish notability. Coverage is extremely sparse on this person, and his name makes it tough to do a thorough search. The most noteworthy thing is that he lives on in an award in cricket, but nothing else I could find.
- Pakistan Women Muslim League: nominated at AfD 22:03, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Nothing has improved since the last AfD. I'm unable to find sources, and the claim that this party is the "first women's political party" in Pakistan is dubious (even if claims like these indicate notability) because the source doesn't make this claim, but someone else related to the party. Everything else I could find was just a mention in a list. Finally, the article was created by User:Rubina Shaheen, modified by User:Pwml, and relatively recently User:Rubinashaheenpk--all clearly COIs. This is just not a notable political party.
- Ophur: nominated at AfD; notified Tarsaucer (talk · contribs) 04:45, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: I'm unable to find anything about the band, and the four refs aren't great. It looks like they also went by 'Ophurall', and one of their band members passed a few years later. Their stuff is kindly available on the Internet Archive (and on their website), but those things don't indicate notability. In essence, a failure of WP:BAND.
September 2022
[edit]- Herbert Vigar: nominated at AfD; notified BlackJack (talk · contribs) 22:40, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: No WP:SIGCOV on the person, so this fails WP:NSPORTS by extension of failing WP:GNG. Sole source is a database entry.
- Gilberto Vendemiati: nominated at AfD 23:05, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
- Union of Socialists of Vojvodina: nominated at AfD; notified PANONIAN (talk · contribs) 19:37, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
December 2022
[edit]- File:ATI Mecha Demo Screenshot.jpg: (log) nominated at FfD; notified ShuffyIosys (talk · contribs) 20:13, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: NFCC#1: A free equivalent can be created; the image is not the subject of the article, only an example.
March 2023
[edit]- David Doyle (writer): nominated at AfD; notified GeeTeeBee (talk · contribs) 04:47, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Can't find any sources referencing this author. Article is written in a very promotional tone. (Indeed, an editor with the same name has edited it extensively.)
April 2023
[edit]- Manzoor Elahi: nominated at AfD; notified *Paul* (talk · contribs) 03:21, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: The biographies fail WP:SPORTBASIC. All information I've found about them come from sports databases, which do not confer notability as they are trivial sources with little to no standards for inclusion. Coverage of a game by the BBC and another from a Pakistani news site are both WP:ROUTINE coverage, and a very short bio mentioning the three from The Asian Age is just not enough. There is not widespread coverage of any of them to warrant an entry on Wikipedia.
- Template:PPRightPlace: nominated at TfD; notified Oshwah (talk · contribs) 18:27, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: The ombox is only used on WP:PP, and it would be fine to substitute it there.
May 2023
[edit]- Julian Gingell: nominated at AfD; notified Philiprs (talk · contribs) 19:36, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Fails WP:SIGCOV. The only sources I've found mostly consisted of his name as a part of a list of other names, while the few others remained passing mentions. From my search, the only reliable facts about him were that he won ASCAP awards for American Idol work in 2004, 2009, 2011, 2016 ([17][18][19]), and 2022, and an honoree in 2008; produced for Steps (pop group) ([20][21]) and Sybil (singer) ([22]); and signed on at one point to a label called Diggermusic ([23]). There's also an interview, but that isn't an RS. While he may have won awards, there is no reliable in-depth coverage about him to meet SIGCOV.
- Safiullah Khan: nominated at AfD; notified Nabs (talk · contribs) 19:47, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Unable to find sources to meet WP:SPORTBASIC (sports databases don't count). Tagged as needing more sources since 2009.
- Centers and institutes of Washington University in St. Louis: nominated at AfD; notified Lmbstl (talk · contribs) 00:43, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:NOTDIRECTORY, which is full of external links mostly unreferenced. Only 6 of the almost 40 entries have articles.
- Gordon Seyfried: nominated at AfD; notified Alexsautographs (talk · contribs) 00:58, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: I'm unable to find sources to meet non-trivial coverage from WP:SPORTBASIC. The closest I could find was two paragraphs in a book. The overwhelming majority of book sources merely include his name, so no notability conferred from them. Newspapers.com shows a ton of trivial routine sports coverage, which is fine for facts but not for notability, per NSPORTS.
- Reshape Reason: nominated at AfD; notified SeaOfSmiles (talk · contribs) 20:13, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Failing WP:NALBUMS#1. I'm unable to find suitable sources to justify keeping them.
- File:Hoy botnb.jpg: (log) nominated at FfD; notified Dennis Brown (talk · contribs) 07:47, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: It doesn't appear that this book cover meets NFC, specifically that the book is mentioned in one sentence and isn't necessary.
- 15 (Phatfish album): nominated at AfD; notified Design junkie (talk · contribs) 19:40, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: I've searched for articles on these albums, but for each I've only come up with a review and a short news piece (and for two of them, a passing mention). They don't pass WP:NALBUMS#1.BEFORE search:* 15: review, short news snip* In Jesus: review, short news snip, passing mention* Anthems for Worship: review, short news snip, passing mention
July 2023
[edit]- Index of articles related to terms of service and privacy policies: nominated at AfD; notified Numbersinstitute (talk · contribs) 03:20, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: This article is purportedly an index article, but is instead a WP:COATRACK with so much original research I can't even begin to describe. All of the references are solely used to make a point that ToSs are covered in media, so it fails to meet WP:LISTN. Most of the article links aren't even to articles regarding ToS or privacy policies, either; they just link to a section in a website's/service's article. The links to full articles are only tangentially related.
- Template:Doc template: nominated at TfD; notified Lightsup55 (talk · contribs) 00:52, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: This and Template:Doc-code serve the same purpose. This one is not linked to by anywhere, and included outdated advice, like adding interwiki links to the documentation subpage. Template:doc-code is linked to by Template:Documentation and Wikipedia:Documentation as the template to substitute. I'd suggest a deletion (or maybe a hist-merge could suffice?).
- Template:French town map: nominated at TfD; notified Bob247 (talk · contribs) 15:36, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Unused template, and apparently not substituted anywhere either (see file usage of c:Paris plan pointer b jms.gif and c:Paris plan pointer b jms.svg).
- Template:Navboxrugby: nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Navbox (notified); notified Bob247 (talk · contribs) 18:40, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Unused template that redirects to Template:Navbox. It's implausible that an editor would want to get a navbox or would desire getting there using this template.
- Template:Infobox Musique (artiste): nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Infobox musical artist (notified); notified Plastikspork (talk · contribs) 22:19, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Non-English title was repeatedly created, but instead of salting, it was created and protected. Since it's a highly-implausible title, and it has only one usage in mainspace, I'd rather it deleted and salted.
- Pilot (Helluva Boss): nominated at AfD; notified 113.30.191.65 (talk · contribs) 23:10, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: I don't believe this episode (or the other episodes) of Helluva Boss pass WP:GNG. The episodes are not covered in depth to warrant a standalone article.
August 2023
[edit]- Dancing Stars (Austrian season 6): nominated at AfD; notified Stevey396 (talk · contribs) 19:07, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Purely unexplained statistics, a failure of WP:NOTSTATS.
September 2023
[edit]- List of Carnegie libraries in Philadelphia: nominated at AfD; notified Mcmillin24 (talk · contribs) 18:50, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Fails WP:NLIST. Should be merged with List of Carnegie libraries in Pennsylvania.
- Template:Lx: nominated at TfD (merge); Other template: Template:Pagelinks; notified AzaToth (talk · contribs) 20:08, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Duplicate functions, but Pagelinks (Module:PageLinks) has more features. Lx is meant to support a broad category of shortcut templates, but they can also be served by PageLinks. (See also the no-consensus of merging a bunch of link templates.)
- Template:RefIist: nominated at RfD; Target: Template:Reflist (notified) 05:17, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: A misspelling of Reflist (refiist), but it's unreasonable to think that people would mistake the lowercase L for an uppercase i, so I don't think it should stick around.
- Template:IPMag: nominated at TfD; notified SMcCandlish (talk · contribs) 18:38, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Single-use citation template. Subst and delete.
- Template:Featured article tools: nominated at TfD; notified Gimmetrow (talk · contribs) 22:55, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: All but two of the links are Dispenser links. Dispenser's site is no longer functional, and the user has effectively retired. For replacements of the functioning links, Citationbot can be invoked with the Wikipedia:Citation expander gadget, and the XTools link can be found in either the meta:MoreMenu or the XTools gadgets.
October 2023
[edit]- 1953 12 Hours of Sebring: nominated at AfD; notified LordAnon of Essex (talk · contribs) 22:23, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:ROUTINE (motor)sports event. Nothing really of note happened. The article consists of a play-by-play, which isn't noteworthy itself. The remainder of the article is unexplained statistics.
November 2023
[edit]- File:L'Orient-newspaper-Lebanon.jpg: (log) nominated at FfD; notified Werldwayd (talk · contribs) 17:34, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:NFCC#8: I don't believe this scan benefits the reader enough to warrant a non-free media use. It is meant to show the layout of the paper pre-merge, but I don't see that as necessary. I've also nominated File:Le-Jour-newspaper-Lebanon.jpg for deletion, which is the comparison scan.
- File:Le-Jour-newspaper-Lebanon.jpg: (log) nominated at FfD; notified Werldwayd (talk · contribs) 17:34, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:NFCC#8: I don't believe this scan benefits the reader enough to warrant a non-free media use. It is meant to show the layout of the paper pre-merge, but I don't see that as necessary. I've also nominated File:L'Orient-newspaper-Lebanon.jpg for deletion, which is the comparison scan.
- File:Hinkle misinformation.png: (log) nominated at FfD; notified CommunityNotesContributor (talk · contribs) 03:42, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: I do not believe this image meets WP:NFCC#1 because the tweets can be accurately depicted with prose. Indeed, the article already has this prose:
Hinkle also falsely claimed on Twitter that Haaretz had reported that the Israeli government inflated the death toll for the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel. Haaretz quoted the post in a tweet and said that Hinkle's post "contain[ed] blatant lies" and was not substantiated by their reporting on the attack.
Similarly, I don't think the image is important enough to meet WP:NFCC#8, either.
- Reason: I do not believe this image meets WP:NFCC#1 because the tweets can be accurately depicted with prose. Indeed, the article already has this prose:
May 2024
[edit]- Category:NRISref errors: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Doncram (talk · contribs) 23:28, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: No longer useful to Template:NRISref. This was a tracking category that would track for uses without a database version, but those are not a thing anymore. New NRHP sites do not have this. See Template talk:NRISref#Template-protected edit request on 27 May 2024.
- File:Larry Connor Portrait.png: (log) nominated at FfD; notified GemCityFlyer (talk · contribs) 02:44, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Likely not own work. File information says the photo was taken in 2015, but this University of Dayton article has a version of it in 2013. Curiously, the Huffington Post has republished this photo, crediting Connor as providing the photo, but the exif metadata shows that it came from enwiki. The image on the UD article has "Larry lecture flyer 2013.indd" as the XMP:Title attribute.The uploader also uploaded multiple other photos to Commons as their own work, which, if true, would mean they were with Connor for more than 20 years taking photos with him hiking up Mt. Kilimanjaro, with him in the sky, of him racing in 2001, and is named Brad Feinknopf.
June 2024
[edit]- File:Twitter example share icon.png: (log) nominated at FfD; notified Crookesmoor (talk · contribs) 21:05, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Fails WP:NFCC#1: no free equivalent. There are plenty of tweets on Commons, and it's possible to use the icon SVG alone.
- File:Facebook share icon example.png: (log) nominated at FfD; notified Crookesmoor (talk · contribs) 21:12, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Fails WP:NFCC#1: no free equivalent. This can be replaced with a freely-licensed image on Commons that has the share icon, or replace it with an SVG of the icon itself.
