- Corinne Jewelers (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This is an overtly promotional article created by an editor who seems to creating similarly promotional articles for other jewelry stores. There are sources here, but nothing that would substantiate a claim of notability and no other such sources were found in a Google search. Alansohn (talk) 20:59, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- This page is meant to be information on Corinne Jewelers in Toms River, NJ. It is to service for information on a local institution, whose notability have a small range, but is very much alive in the Toms River area. As for the wont of sources, that is regrettable, but I am working on finding more sources, and plan on keeping the page updated when any new, reputable sources arise from local New Jersey press or other larger scale publications/websites. As for my other pages that are similar, the same sort of reasoning applies. These are locally notable businesses, and offer a level of interest for jewelry enthusiasts as well as for locals who are interested in the economic history of their hometowns. Further, nothing stated in the article is meant to be promotional, as they are facts that can be verified by the sources provided. Considering this cannot be stripped down further, claims of overt promotion are subjective and unsubstantiated. J.Showcase (talk) 21:29, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

- Delete -- not notable outside a local area. Kierzek (talk) 22:05, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Just because it exists and is a going concern does not mean it is notable as a business. In fact, we tend to delete articles on local stores, and this seems to be another little local suburban jewelry store. We are not a web host for businesses, the Wikimedia Foundation is a private charity. This is objectively promotional because it literally uses its "catchphrase 'Bring her into Corinne.'" Also, citing a press release from "mail.instoremag.com/shine-press" is the very picture of promotion. Many business were affected by Superstorm Sandy; if we had an article on every one of them, we'd be JerseyShoreandFireIslandPedia, not English Wikipedia. A "custom 1.64-carat radiant-cut pink diamond" is not that special. The store was established in 1964, the same year I was. That's not old, I tell myself. Bearian (talk) 20:10, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

- Paris, Texas (band) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Non-notable defunct band. Tagged for lack of WP:NMUSIC since 2011. Time to flesh it out or clear it out. — JFG talk 20:25, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. WP:BAND #5 says a band "may" be notable if they've released two albums on "one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable)". They don't meet any of the other 12 criteria of WP:BAND I don't think so let's look at #5.
- They released one album on New Line Records which is an arm of Warner Bros. (but the film studio, and so not part of Warner Music Group or Warner Bros. Records I think), but anyway New Line Records has released several albums by blue-linked artists so I guess they qualify as a "label... with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable" even though they're an an arm of large film company and not really an indie label, if you want split hairs and think it matters (maybe it does, I'm not a music maven). And then they released an album on Polyvinyl Record Co., which is an indie label and which has roster of quite a few blue-linked artists, so I think they qualify.
- So that just means they may qualify. But they also have some EPs on these labels, and they have an actual bio with words and stuff on Allmusic.com. There's a long quote in the article from CMJ New Music Magazine (whatever that is) but there's no ref. Here is something about them on Last.fm, which admittedly is Last.fm. So it's questionable whether they meet WP:GNG. The Allmusic.com bio is half of what they need. I'm going to vote that meeting #5 of WP:BAND, and also having some EPs on top of that, and also being on Last.fm and other random places like here on MusicBrainz (whatever that is) is enough extra sufficient to squeak them in as a borderline keep.

- Delete per nom. Coquitlam ain't Vancouver, and in Vancouver, I didn't even feel the earth move under my feet. Clarityfiend (talk) 04:55, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
- Every earthquake that occurs at all does not automatically get its own standalone article just to assert that it occurred — for a Wikipedia article to be justified or warranted, some properly sourced evidence of significance (e.g. property damage, loss of life, long-term effects, and on and so forth) would need to be shown. But there's no evidence of any significance here, as witness the fact that there's been no significant coverage — even on a Google search, I find a couple of "this just happened" blurbs but no evidence of the coverage extending past the hour, let alone the day, of the event, which means nothing can be added to beef this up. There was a minor earthquake in my hometown a couple of weeks ago, too, but nothing happened that would get it an article in an encyclopedia. Bearcat (talk) 18:24, 23 July 2016 (UTC)

- Delete. There is a lack of coverage in reliable sources in this article. I also did a search but couldn't find any to add.

- Comment. Hello Wikipedians, thanks for your time! It was my first attempt at publishing on Wikipedia and it would be really disheartening to watch it being deleted. I would be obliged if instead of just pointing out the faults, you might consider editing and removing irrelevant points. Also, I had used the template of another Doctor for reference since I didn't have much idea on how to proceed, but I have rectified it and sincerely hope that the issue is resolved. Please point out an other discrepancies and let me know which points are irrelevant to the cause of Wikipedia so that I may continue contributing further. Makemelive (talk) 06:30, 28 July 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Makemelive, thank you for taking the time to work on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, the editors here not questioning the quality of the article, but rather if it warrants inclusion in Wikipedia in the first place. Wikipedians have chosen to establish a standard for "notability" as a guide for this. The editors here feel that Dr. Amarapurkar does not meet that standard. As you can imagine, one could write a similar article for millions of other professionals. Such a set of articles would quickly become unwieldy and Wikipedia's quality would wane. I would suggest looking at the links on your talk page for good ways to work on Wikipedia. Hope this helps. Jujutacular (talk) 03:23, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

Sometimes you take articles to AfD because you're convinced they need to be deleted; other times you take articles to AfD because you don't know what to do with them and you want the community to decide – this article is one of the latter. Subject has been a journey[man/person?] actress since 2005, but a quick perusal doesn't suggest she passes WP:NACTOR as either her roles seem minor, or they took place in non-notable productions. I've done some WP:BEFORE work here and added info from a Variety and THR source, respectively, but it looks like there's nothing else out there on this subject. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 17:23, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

- Delete This fails GNG. The coverage in reliable sources [12], [13] is restricted to passing mentions. The other sources which do have significant coverage are unfortunately all local sources (and even them some of them are interviews, and hence primary sources). This seemed OK at first glance, but it seems this is a newly established "online only magazine" which I tend to consider as WP:SPS. The subject wouldn't pass WP:ENT either. I also think this is WP:TOOSOON. At this moment, not notable. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 11:30, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

- Technically, Southern Fried Homicide isn't "local" – it's on cable's Investigation Discovery channel. But I agree that the show itself isn't particularly notable, and the subject's only other credible claim to notability is the work she's done for the New Orleans film industry which I personally don't think is enough to justify an encyclopedia entry here. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 23:01, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

But since I wrote it, I point you to the (perhaps missed) clarification at WP:TOOSOON#Biography notability basics that addresses how the essay TOO SOON is not always applicable, as the instructions of WP:BASIC are quite clear and a sourced stub article does not have to be immediately perfect.

Per WP:2DABS. At the moment, there aren't enough entries for page and we just look at what exists on WP - after all, if others are created, it would take two seconds to re-start a dab. At the moment, people go to Pooja Sharma, realise it's not who they are looking for and so click on the link to Pooja Sharma (disambiguation). They then have to read it through and click on the TV actress' link - a time sink - or realise at this stage that the TV actress is the only other one on Wikipedia and the one they are looking for can't be found - another time sink, as this could have been found out when they saw a direct hatnote to the TV actress at the top of the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC's page.

"notable subject if sources are provided"
because, even if unsourced, a topic might be notable if sources are available, used or not.

Fails WP:VERIFY. This article has previously been nominated for deletion, but was kept with the rationale that "Secondary schools are kept per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES". However, that ignores the part of SCHOOLOUTCOMES that states "except when zero independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists". No sources are cited in the article, nor were they supplied in the previous AfD, and I have been unable to find independent sources that could be used. Upholding the consensus reflected by SCHOOLOUTCOMES should therefore involve deleting this article. Cordless Larry (talk) 12:20, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

- Delete as failing GNG. SCHOOLOUTCOMES is an essay, not a guideline; it must not be read to override our notability guideline and verifiability policy. Anyway, SCHOOLOUTCOMES only says what has commonly happened in past debates; it doesn't say that articles about schools ought to be kept. The introduction to OUTCOMES further stresses that notability and verifiability are the determining factors in debates, not past outcomes. Rebbing 18:36, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

- Conditional soft delete in which the only AFD-specific requirement for returning to the main encyclopedia is sufficient evidence of existence that the school would be kept under WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES and insertion of that evidence into the article prior to or immediately after it becomes part of the encyclopedia. With all due respect to Clarityfiend, the sign would be enough for me to NOT recommend deletion if this were the first go-around (I was neutral in the first AFD) but enough time has passed that if there was more proof the school existed and editors cared enough to add it, it would be there. Of course, all the usual non-AFD-specific requirements such as "no sockpuppetry" apply. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 03:00, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

- Keep It is not an elementary school--the tenth grade in India is the highest secondary level that directly prepares for university. R+Tho SCHOOLOUTCOMES only refers to accredited schools we have also usually kept unaccredited ones as well. The question here is real existence. The evidence for this was the photos discussed at the previous AfD. From the course of the information there the school exists. DGG ( talk ) 22:19, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
- Question for DGG (and anyone else who wants to chime in): If a US state were to allow anyone to open an unaccredited school and that state treat that school's students the same as it treats home-schooled students, would Wikipedia keep articles about every such school that happened to teach 12th graders? Doubtful.
- On the other hand, if such a school got as much news coverage as a typical 12th-grade school does (say, due to sports and other programs), the article for that particular school might be kept. There are entire categories of high schools in the United States, such as special-purpose disciplinary-alternative schools, whose members generally have almost zero independent press coverage from reliable, 3rd-party sources. I don't recall ever seeing a Wikipedia article about such a school, but if I did and it were at AfD, I would probably recommend soft deletion until such time as it got at least some press coverage. I recommended "soft deletion" for this school, but a similar high school were in the United States, where English-language records are more likely to be accessible, I would recommend outright deletion if there wasn't at least some record of the school's existence in a reliable, independent source such as a newspaper or government record. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 03:09, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

- Nature-Inspired
A direct quote from Xin-She Yang himself from his book Nature-Inspired Metaheuristics which has been repeatedly published by Elsevier.
Researchers have drawn various inspirations to develop a diverse range of algorithms with different degrees of success. Such diversity and success do not mean that we should focus on developing more algorithms for the sake of algorithm developments, or even worse, for the sake of publication. We do not encourage readers to develop new algorithms such as grass, tree, tiger, penguin, snow, sky, ocean, or Hobbit algorithms. These new algorithms may only provide distractions from the solution of really challenging and truly important problems in optimization. New algorithms may be developed only if they provide truly novel ideas and really efficient techniques to solve challenging problems that are not solved by existing algorithms and methods.
Sadly, the scientific community rewards those algorithms that are able to produce better results on a set of benchmark functions Test functions for optimization . Coincidentally, these "inspired algorithms" have been performing well in solving such test cases along with other complex problems, hence the high number of citations. Although, these algorithms may appear to be "metaphoric", most of the original algorithms in this field share at some level, the same level of similarity in terms of "population", "fitness", "operators", "solutions" etc. Hence, singly out "inspired" algorithms for deletion based on a few handful of publications outlining its negative "novelty" against the large number of publications outlining its "effectiveness" is still a matter up for debate. It is true that research at this point of time is mired at the metaheuristic level but till the time the scientific community decides over the debate of "fittest" vs "novelty" , as an knowledge sharing site, both the pros and cons should be weighed infront of the reader, meaning both the applications that have been conspicuously blanked for some algorithms due for deletion and the criticism like the one already been put for firefly should together be put up as information. Furthermore, to clarify some of the claims but these "algorithms" have been published not only in 2nd tier journals or conferences but reputed journals like Elsevier , Springer Publishing , Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, wiley etc. Capn Swing (talk) 12:38, 19 July 2016 (UTC)

- Comment - I don't see a real problem for Wikipedia here. There is clearly some confusion around the current fashionable flurry of "nature inspired" algorithms which is perhaps getting in the way of clarifying the underlying mathematics. But that is something the scientific community needs to sort out, not, as Ruud seems to be implying above, something that Wikipedia editors should try and sort out. Out role is to faithfully report what mainstream and reliable sources are saying. If there is some measure of confusion and dissent within that literature, then we should be reporting that as well - not trying to play God and sort it out ourselves. In other words, we should treat these algorithms on a case by case basis, and accept ones that are sufficiently cited in the literature. --Epipelagic (talk) 17:45, 23 July 2016 (UTC)

School not notable under WP:NSCHOOL/WP:ORG Comicmuse (talk) 09:46, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- SPeedy keep: long-established high school, building designed by notable architect, many notable alumni ... what more do we need? PamD 10:50, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
Being linked to notable individuals does not make it prima facie notable itself, surely? The new section noting the existence of an archive would seem more convincing on that front. Comicmuse (talk) 11:46, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep- obviously: There is a long history of annoying requests for deletion- it has been discussed for a decade all over WP. Wikipedia:Notability (high schools). It is summed up on the Schools guidelines page. Wikipedia:WPSCHOOLS/AG
In practice articles on high/secondary schools and school districts are usually kept, as they are almost always found to be notable, unless their existence cannot be verified in order to stop hoaxes. Articles on elementary/primary schools or middle schools will normally be merged into the locality article (such as a village or town) unless they can clearly demonstrate that they can meet the notability guideline. Articles on elementary/primary and middle schools should normally be merged into the school district article or the appropriate locality article if this is not available. Due to continued controversy over deletion of school articles, they are formally exempt from the speedy deletion A7 criterion, though not A1 or any other of the general or article criteria.
Is it notable- it has 400 years of documented history, it has records in the National Archives and is the subject of a book. Have a look at the truncated list of alumni. It is a referenced stub with a lot of potential that needs lots of attention. ClemRutter (talk) 17:36, 22 July 2016 (UTC)bb

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Not clear there is a topic here at all. Seems to be trying to apply “parametric landscape” to a variety of fields. Yes, all of them can be described using parameters, but none of them is called a “parametric landscape”. Don’t know if anything can be salvaged for a new or existing article, but as-is this is pretty hopeless. JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 09:18, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Parametric design. This article looks like a synthesis, per WP:SYNTH and I haven't found any secondary sources that ties all the concepts together; as the nom says, the article is ill-formed in its current state. However, there is the book Flux: Architecture in a Parametric Landscape and more generally the architectural movement of Parametric design that covers the parametrically designed landscapes and urban structures mentioned in the article. Hence I think this could be usefully redirected to Parametric design, where the topic is discussed more generally. --Mark viking (talk) 10:02, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

This was afd'd before, deleted, then apparently reappeared, but there is still no credible claim of notability and some of the material back in the article is taken verbatim from the deleted version. I am placing this here for community input, but I should note that if consensus if once again for delete it should be WP:SALTed to prevent recreation. TomStar81 (Talk) 07:13, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Speedy keep. Obviously notable, and the reason it was deleted at AfD before was because it had been copy and pasted from userspace at a time when the sourcing was lacking, not because there was in any way a consensus that the subject wasn't notable. It was hugely expanded and sourced before being brought back to mainspace. Look at the coverage cited - notability can't seriously be questioned. --Michig (talk) 07:26, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Notability can be seriously questioned, the question is whether its relevant to the case at hand. In this case it may not be, if what you say is right. I'm indifferent to the outcome, just concerned about its apparent use of material in its previously deleted state. In fairness, articles of this nature always have a 50/50 for which way they will go, and if it turns out you're right then we are better off for keeping the article. In any event, sine no one ever seems to contribute to these things anymore, I thank you for taking the time to opine of the afd. TomStar81 (Talk) 07:42, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roadblock (2016) recently deleted three articles in a similar state. All three failed WP:GNG and this one does too, the only new argument is that tickets for this event are on Ticketmaster, this is not enough to establish notability per WP:EVENT. I had previously redirected this to List of WWE pay-per-view events; this current article contains no information that isn't there. LM2000 (talk) 03:44, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Wrestling-related deletion discussions. LM2000 (talk) 03:49, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
KEEP I'm really surprised that LM2000 is suggesting this article be deleted. You are usually pretty level-headed and understand how wrestling PPV pages work. Once WWE announces an event on their site and then when Ticketmaster puts tickets on sale, especially now that we're only about 2 months away from the event, that is usually more than enough information needed to confirm an event. Also the information included on the article notes that this is a brand new PPV event and that it is not a continuation of the Night Of Champions PPV series, something that WWE notes themselves in one of the included sources. A lot of people are assuming this PPV is using the same chronology as Night Of Champions and they keep making edits to the Night Of Champions page to include Clash Of Champions. If, for no other reason, this page lets people know that it is indeed a brand new event. There have been plenty of times in the past where pages for a PPV event are created several months before the event takes place, why is this any different? Heck, WrestleMania 33 already has a WP page and that show is not for another 8 and 1/2 months! OldSkool01 (talk) 06:57, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- This article lacks "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", see WP:SIGCOV. I think the project has a tendency to prematurely create these articles before the subjects are notable. Comparing the PPV that replaced Night of Champions to WrestleMania, WWE's Superbowl, is apples and oranges, although nothing of value would be lost if we redirect that to the main WrestleMania article until they start building toward it after the Royal Rumble. We almost did that last year with WrestleMania 32 and we probably should have.LM2000 (talk) 07:36, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- I strongly disagree. It's not apples and oranges at all. In fact this page has more relevant references to the subject than the WrestleMania 33 page does. I even added a reference directly from the arena holding the event which gives a tentative list of wrestlers that are scheduled to appear at Clash Of Champions. Also in the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roadblock (2016), the main discussion point for deletion of those pages was that those shows were not yet confirmed by either WWE themselves or Ticketmaster. In this case, Clash Of Champions is confirmed by both as well as the arena site. Is your argument that pages shouldn't be made until matches for the event are announced? Because that then becomes a completely different conversation. OldSkool01 (talk) 09:22, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- My rationale is that this clearly fails WP:GNG. You've added WP:PRIMARY sources from the promotion which will put on the show and from stadium which will hold it, you've also referenced the website selling the tickets; none of this counts GNG as they're not independent of the subject. Significant coverage from independent secondary sources does not exist. That was why the nominator of the Roadblock AfD, @Reddogsix:, nominated that, and that's why I voted delete.LM2000 (talk) 09:41, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

- This is silly. This is the exact opposite of the discussion I had with someone on the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roadblock (2016) page. There I provided independent sources confirming the event will be taking place and their argument was the independent sources didn't count unless WWE or Ticketmaster themselves confirm it. Now in this article I provide sources directly from WWE and Ticketmaster and you're saying it's not good unless we have independent sources. Something is screwed up here. Also there is an independent source on the page from PWInsider. OldSkool01 (talk) 19:27, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- That's the lone independent source and it's a passing mention and WP:ROUTINE. WWE confirming its existence isn't enough per WP:ITEXISTS.LM2000 (talk) 00:28, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
- Also want to note that's the same source that was provided in the last AfD, it wasn't enough there and it shouldn't be enough here. The fact that the PPV is in late September also means nothing, Backlash is scheduled sooner than Clash of Champions and that got deleted with Roadblock. My hope is that these AfDs establish new criteria for when the project creates these articles, when WWE and Ticketmaster announce the event is irrelevant and not based on policy, articles should be created only when the subject passes GNG.LM2000 (talk) 00:39, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
- So basically you're saying ppv pages shouldn't be created until matches are announced. And even then, the majority of references come directly from WWE.com. The only time there is more independent coverage is after the ppv is over and other websites cover the results. Go look at SummerSlam 2016 and WrestleMania 33. How many "independent sources" directly mention those events on their respective pages? You won't get many, if any, independent sources for an event until matches are announced. And if you feel a new rule should be implemented where ppv pages are not created until matches are announced then we need to open up that debate to other editors because that is a much bigger conversation and this isn't the right forum for it. OldSkool01 (talk) 02:42, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

- The first F4wonline link was put forth in the other AfD and contains the same trivial mention that PWInsider reports. The second F4wonline source doesn't mention the PPV at all. No sources describe the event in detail as needed per WP:SIGCOV.LM2000 (talk) 06:38, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
- In detail? There aren't any matches announced yet! Other than the date, time, city, arena, etc.(which are all sourced) what other details are you looking for? Until matches are announced, there isn't going to be much more detail available. Which goes back to my earlier point, you're basically saying ppv pages shouldn't be made until matches are announced.

- Weak keep: the difference between Clash of Champions and the three other pages recently deleted is that the event is verified to be happening with a high degree of certainty. There isn't a pressing need to have an skeleton article in place so far out for a B-show, but there really isn't a parent article to easily redirect to (ordinarily, it would be WWE Night of Champions–as it has a similar name and in the mid-September slot–but there's no verified source either way saying if the event gimmick is going to be kept). Sceptre (talk) 22:12, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
- Would you have supported a merge if this event had been Night of Champions (2016) instead of Clash of Champions (2016)?LM2000 (talk) 10:20, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
- If this was a continuation of Night Of Champions then all we would need to do is redirect this page to the main Night Of Champions page for now and just list this year's event with the rest of them. But WWE is calling this the inaugural Clash Of Champions so there's no evidence yet that this is following the same lineage as Night Of Champions. OldSkool01 (talk) 16:37, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
- Let me rephrase that. If this article was another edition of an annual event (I used NOC as an example), rather than the first event as this is, you would be okay with redirecting it to the main article rather than leaving a stub like this? Because it's not uncommon for these stubs of dubious notability to get left like this.LM2000 (talk) 19:07, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
- It depends how much information we can confirm for the event, how far away the event is, etc. I wouldn't want to make a blanket statement for every ppv. It should be a case by case situation. In this case I wouldn't mind if Clash Of Champions redirected to its own main article if there were previous WWE Clash Of Champions events. One of the main reasons I'm supporting to keep this page is because there isn't a main article with previous events. OldSkool01 (talk) 01:43, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
- WWE confirmed that Clash of Champions will be a Raw exclusive event. They also confirmed Backlash 2016 as a SmackDown exclusive event. Ticketmaster also has a link for Backlash tickets. It looks like it's only a matter of time before No Mercy and Roadblock get added as well. In the meantime, can we end this debate to delete this page? OldSkool01 (talk) 17:19, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, — Music1201 talk 02:17, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Weak keep: as above, I think there is enough for notability, barely, and there is no obvious redirection options anyway, so its a keep for me. Mattlore (talk) 03:33, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Nomination withdrawn I remain unconvinced that this passes the GNG bar and I believe the only useful information in the stub is already at List of WWE pay-per-view events. The differences between this and Roadblock AfD events seem negligible and the keep criteria, such as events being listed on Ticketmaster, seem arbitrary and not based on policy. This has been relisted once and probably will get relisted again, by the time it comes to its natural conclusion the event may actually be notable. With that, I understand that this isn't going to get deleted and that this AfD isn't going to end the policy of creating these stubs many months in advance before the subject is notable. However, there does seem to be some agreement that if this had been a reoccurring event, such as WWE Night of Champions, a redirect would have been fine in this case.LM2000 (talk) 04:45, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

This is a transcription of a primary source that is known to be unreliable. It includes links to numerous other articles that may or may not in fact be the communities designated in the census. Basically, it is verifiable only due to a failure to comply with WP:RS. Without context, and with the links, it is effectively useless. A similar article by the same creator has already been deleted.

Doesn't seem to be a notable place. Just a small village that doesn't have many google hits and there's no indication of much significance in the article. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 12:36, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete As per WP:GEOLAND, the article can be kept, provided there is at-least one source to verify the subject. However, the entire article is completely written in Hindi and is no use on English Wikipedia. KCVelaga ☚╣✉╠☛ 16:00, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
- Weak keep per [WP:GEOLAND]]. Judging by satellite maps, this is a small village about 4 kilometres east of Namli with perhaps a few hundred inhabitants, but it does seem to get just about enough gazetteer coverage to allow for an article, though a mention/redirect in an article on its local area might be enough. The previously Hindi part of the article has now been mostly translated into English by the article creator - this all seems to refer to a Jain temple which is highly likely to be notable if sources can be found to back up the claims made (if not, the material on it will largely need to be removed). Having said that, the village does not seem to be the only place called Semliya even within its area - there appears to be another only about 30 kilometres further north. And there are at least a couple of Jain temples not that far away that are definitely easier to document than the one detailed here. PWilkinson (talk) 14:23, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep As per WP:GEOLAND. The Article is a right and correct description of events happened in Semliya.The temple was quite famous in medieval age however today many few people know about it.It has been only 5 years since the pilgrims have regularly started to visit the magnificent temple from states of Madhya Pradesh,Rajasthan and Gujrat.This is a precious source of information for the people of Jain community. Such articles should not be discouraged. You cannot get evidence for genuineness of a place importance by just Googling it.The other couple of temples near Semliya by google maps were probably Bhopavar,Vibrod and Maksi and they are mentioned in the article as well and are combinedly called panchtirthi including Semliya.The place has a lot more to offer if you actually visit it.I strongly recommended to keep this page — Preceding unsigned comment added by KenilworthWhisp (talk • contribs) 13:32, 17 July 2016 (UTC) — KenilworthWhisp (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- I encourage you you read WP:VNT. "Right" or "correct" is not the standard for inclusion on Wikipedia. Notability and evidence of it from citations are the standard for inclusion. Even if the actual place has a lot to offer, as you say, it should not be kept if it doesn't have significant coverage in reliable sources. Judging by the lack of citations in the article and lack of Google results, it doesn't appear to have significant coverage. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 12:51, 18 July 2016 (UTC)

- A single source with a single paragraph of information for an over 800-word page is nowhere near enough. Most of the article is still unsourced. Also, if a tourist guide is the best source out there for this place, that only gives the article all the more reason to be deleted. Furthermore, Wikipedia is not a travel guide or a place for promotion. The current tone of the article reads highly promotional, and I think it would need to be completely rewritten from scratch for it to have any chance of being encyclopedic. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 13:19, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- It's the only source out there for now.That is why I tried to share detailed information on Wikipedia platform and since the information is in detail and so far unique(on Internet)it will be hard to verify.Besides i don't think anyone is looking to do a PhD on this topic and hence need to verify every minute information(It's all correct though...Alas!).I politely disagree on the point that article is written in promotional tone.It just gives information about travel and room convinience available within temple premises.They have been included because I thought it will be helpful for visitors to plan their trip in such a remote place with limited amenities. I have no personal gain in favouring the trust.The trust belongs to temple itself and gives room and food facilities to visitors for a very nominal charge even that for maintanence(for the service and sake of visitors).I don't think a 2 line mention of trust services makes the whole article promotional and hence does not need to be rewritten from a scratch ;). People objecting content perhaps need to read it again this time carefully. All the Sadhus-Sadhvis have nothing to do with temple affairs.I've mentioned their names because it's a common practice in jain community to give names of the Sadhus-Sadhvis stayed in Choumasa time of year in the temple. Anmol Pagaria (talk)16:42, 20 July 2016 (UTC).
- Wikipedia isn't the place to publish original information. The information may very well be true, but for it to be included it must all be verifiable. There cannot be any original research in any Wikipedia articles. All information on Wikipedia must already exist in another reliable source. Your statement that the source currently in the article is the only source out there only strengthens the claim that the subject is not notable. If the place gets more media coverage in the future and notability can be demonstrated, it would be worthy of inclusion. However, it doesn't meet that requirement at this time. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 22:53, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- Also, I take back my earlier claim about the article needing a fundamental rewrite. There is non-promotional content, but the page does still read like a travel guide. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 22:58, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep, meets WP:GEOLAND ie. its a Populated, legally recognized place, here is a link to a 2011 census - [15], also not sure about nom's rationale - "Just a small village" - there goes a few (hundred?) thousand articles
, " there's no indication of much significance" - Article content does not determine notability, although Eventhorizon51 needs to be aware of WP:BURDEN in that the temple info can/should? be deleted (or at least moved to the talkpage?) until appropriate sources are found.

The result was delete. Clear consensus is shown below that season articles for clubs in the fifth tier of English football are not notable per WP:NSEASONS.
Of the keep votes presented, none attempt to deal either with NSEASONS or GNG, The first is an other stuff exists arguement, the second is a combination of WP:INTERESTING / WP:MERCY. The final keep vote is clearly refuted with reference to prior deletion discussions.
My decision, given that this is an article on a forthcoming season does not preclude the fact that sufficient independent may arise during the course of the season to satisfy GNG, in which case the article can be restored. Fenix down (talk) 08:05, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

- Firstly, that was a bulk nomination in which all but one of the articles passed WP:NSEASONS.

And of course, even if there was consensus then to have fifth tier articles (I don't believe there was), this has changed. Number 57 07:39, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
- Hasn't changed. A primary argument, and the reason I didn't challenge it, was that future season article was too soon.

- It hasn't changed because there was never consensus that fifth tier seasons were notable. Every AfD we've had this year on a National League season article has resulted in deletion: 1, 2, 3. In fact I've just checked through our AfD archive, and there is not a single occasion on which an AfD on a season article for a club at this level has resulted in "Keep" – only a handful of no consensuses and the vast majority in delete (the closing admin is more than welcome to check this out if further proof is needed (here's another example from last year – note who has also shown up to !vote keep...).

- Your case makes no sense to me, we have hundreds, if not thousands of 5th (and far lower) tier season articles, and yet because the only 3 AFDs this year were delete, we should delete this one. Let's look at those 3. You've again raised the 1 that was deleted as too soon. The other two were for teams that never were higher than 5th tier, and were far lower both before and after. Compare to Torquay, which has over 85 seasons in the Football League? There's no comparision.

- It makes no sense because you have an extreme case of WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT when it comes to football-related notability consensus. We do not have "hundreds, if not thousands" of these articles. As you can see quite clearly at Category:Football Conference seasons by team, we have 95 (there are two in the 2016–17 category which does not exist), and they are gradually being reduced in number as we go through these AfDs. Unless you can present a roughly equal number of AfDs that resulted in these articles being kept, then it's clear that there is no consensus to keep them, and that (from the dozen AfDs listed above) there is consensus to delete them.

- Comment: the article is ostensibly about a person, whose only claim to notability is that he is the heir apparent of a French marquess. However most of the content is about people who I assume were his ancestors (though this is not stated) – some of these were probably notable, though there are no wikilinks.

- Delete I would say the article on Jean de Suarez d'Aulan is seriously lacking, and it does appear we have severe lack of articles on the key figures in Iberia in the late 15th and early 16th centirues, although whether a Fernando Suarez de Figueroa was really a key military leader in taking Granada is unclear, it is clear there was a Catholic bishop in Spain by that same name in the years immediately before and after 1600, who may well be notable. Henri de Suarez d'Aulan may also well have been an important enough figure in 18th-century France to merit an article. Alternatively we might create an article called Suarez d'Aulan family. However the subject of this article is clearly not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:36, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

- Weak delete. The claim to be the oldest scientific journal in Serbia (in the Bokan source) seems like the sort of thing that should make it notable, but to me ends up more discrediting the source, first because in what sense is this actually science and second because there are much older journals with that claim (e.g. Voice of SANU as listed in List of Serbian-language journals, Acta entomologica Serbica, or Serbian Astronomical Journal). But this journal does have a long history, and on that basis if multiple less-dubious sources that cover it in-depth turn up, I would be willing to change my mind. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:19, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

- "Tech City startup Crozdesk launches web app discovery toolkit". Tech City News. Retrieved 2016-05-23. Starts with "Tech city startup Crozdesk"; published on Tech City news. I guess this is not an independent source.
- "Crozdesk leaves beta to provide a handy tool for finding quality web apps | Webrazzi - Tech startup news from Europe, Middle East and North Africa". Webrazzi. 2015-06-12. Retrieved 2016-07-19. Webrazzi seems to be a pure promotion platform. All their articles are uniformly positive as far as I can tell.
- "Worldwide Business with kathy ireland Highlights The Innovative Approach To Software Evaluation By Crozdesk". www.businesswire.com. Business Wire. Retrieved 2016-05-23. "Tune in to see Crozdesk on Fox Business Network as sponsored programming on October 11, 2015 at 5:30pm ET and on Bloomberg International as sponsored programming at 8:30am CET and 10:30am CDT." "Sponsored programming" = advertisement.
- "Was der Brexit für die europäische Gründerszene bedeutet". Retrieved 2016-07-19. Here the founder is briefly quoted saying that Brexit will make it difficult to find international teams, and that he started Crozdesk with a team of six nationalities. This says nothing about the notability of the company, and using it to support the statement that the founder is regularly quoted on the subject of Brexit is a bit of a stretch.
- Feil, Frank (2016-06-28). "Welchen Folgen hat der Brexit für Startups?" (in German). Retrieved 2016-07-19. Again, briefly quoted as an example of startup founders who are concerned about Brexit.
- "Crozdesk announces partnership with Softonic to help millions of businesses find the right software". Tech City News. Retrieved 2016-07-06. And again Tech City News, this time just a press release, so worthwhile for finding facts, but self-published, so doesn't work to confirm notability.

- Weak delete, but willing to be persuaded. Neither publishing nor having one's publications cited by others satisfies WP:ACADEMIC, but making "significant impact in their scholarly discipline" does. I see suggestions (e.g. here) that he "introduced the notion of bi-text". But that's not a notion I've heard of, so I can say whether it's a significant impact. I don't see evidence of notable fellowships, chairs, editing, or the like. Cnilep (talk) 03:40, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

Paraphrasing my comments on Talk:Wagtail_(CMS),
From my point of view this page was initially created to enhance the Python section on List of content management systems. I think adding Wagtail there is relevant, as it is a very popular albeit recent alternative to the other projects on the list. For the separate page however I understand that it was lacking sources, particularly to demonstrate notability. I have added the ones which I think are the most relevant, as well as some (sourced) content on the project’s history. Looking at Talk:Django_CMS (one of the closest projects in this space, easy comparison), notable uses of the software seem to have been used to make notability claims. Not sure how relevant this is but I added a "Notable uses" section for Wagtail as well, with entities that already have their own Wikipedia pages. Those are sourced with the site they refer to, and other sources where available (open-source code of the site for beta.FEC.gov, news article for UPenn).
I'm obviously keen for this page to exist (I contribute to both Wagtail (CMS) and Django CMS). Looking back at my changes, I would like to get more feedback about Wikipedia's stance on using GitHub repositories as sources (for example awesome-python lists Wagtail, and would be considered a reliable source by open-source software users IMHO) and demonstrating notability with notable usages and/or users of a piece of software.

- Weak keep. It may be difficult to dig up historical architectural content for South Africa, but here is a book that explicitly describes this building as "important" and goes into a bit of detail about its internal appointments; and here (available in a snippet only) is the discussion of the building in another book that served as the source for the first one. If someone is so inclined, an article about the architects, the Obel brothers, would apparently be a nice addition to our currently slim coverage of South African architects. --Arxiloxos (talk) 19:13, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

- Merge(?)/Redirect. All-time roster type lists are normal for professional clubs with sufficient sources to verify them, and restricting the scope by number of appearances is standard practice. However, we don't need both this page and List of USM Alger players (hence why I think this AfD should have been bundled with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of USM Alger players). This page contains at least one player who isn't listed there, but seeing as there are no sources cited on either page, I'm not sure whether he/they should be merged or not. Redirects are cheap. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 11:06, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

No evidence of satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines. I Proposed deletion a couple of weeks ago, stating that there were no independent sources at all, and MrX seconded the proposal, but the creator of the article removed the proposal. He added three references, presumably in order to establish notability, but those are a news announcement at TechCrunch that the company had secured some funding, a page at Dropbox which merely includes CloudRail in a list of 21 Core API SDKs, and a page on a web site called "disqus", which states that it "focuses on helping independent publishers grow successfully", and that "Reveal is an easy-to-use and effective native advertising solution that helps you earn money from your site. It’s integrated into Disqus where you can manage your earnings." None of these does anything at all to establish notability in Wikipedia's terms.

- Keep It's hard for a page describing freeware to be an ad, don't you think? The Github stats show that it's moderately well-liked, but I'd agree that the article lacks sources. This is the case with a lot of freeware, especially backend/boilerplate stuff. I'd liken it to other backend pages like SVGALib, which typically only link to the project itself. Wikipedia seems to be more accommodating for free and gratis software. Granted, this article left me pretty confused as to what the software actually did until I read the sources.

The listed sources are not convincing for his own notability and I note this was actually deleted in May at Russia Wiki (after this article started, apparently because they listed all English contents at Ru.Wiki), my own searches have found nothing so far; the article is also rather advert-toned suggesting some connections of some sort.

Non-notable video game. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 23:42, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Not much reliable secondary coverage that I could find. An IGN review and that's about it. Adam9007 (talk) 01:10, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. It's got an entry at Metacritic with a few reviews, including [21] at IGN (mentioned above) and an offline review from Computer Gaming World. Metacritic also links to [22] from Adrenaline Vault, but this seems to be a review for Casino Mogul, a different game from the same developer. Besides that, in a WP:VG/RS Google custom search, I see two non-English reviews: [23] from fr:Jeuxvideo.com and [24] from nl:Gamer.nl. Since the CGW review snippet doesn't mention Casino Tycoon and Metacritic apparently linked the wrong game with the Adrenaline Vault review, I did a Google Books search to see if Google digitized the CGW issue. Fortunately, it did come up in a search, but it's only a snippet view: [25]. I think that's probably enough to establish notability. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:37, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Four full reviews on a game is more than enough for it to have its own article, considering two is the absolute minimum amount needed, per WP:GNG. Just because it can just have a section in its parent article, doesn't mean it should. If there were next to no coverage available, I could understand, but that's not the case here.

- Weak Keep - Seems like he may scrape by WP:BIO. He appears to be a local celebrity, which always raises the issue of notability requiring at least some regional coverage, rather than just e.g. local papers. There's a bit of that, but there's also the kind of language the sources use, suggesting sources for his long career may require some effort to find. Even some that I found with Google Books are not actually accessible online. Here's what I found: Nanaimo Daily News, Prism International (apparently the oldest literary magazine in western Canada -- I don't have access to the full version but from the preview it looks like biography or otherwise secondary coverage), Nanaimo Daily News, Nanaimo News Bulletin, "Tim+Lander" The Journal of Canadian Poetry (another one I don't have access to) looks to include a review of his The Glass Book), Publishing Lives: Interviews with Independent Book Publishers in the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia includes a chapter comprising and interview with Lander, BC Booklook magazine... — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:04, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

- There's no personal point of view from me at all, it's simply the facts: The article's basis is with the listed controversies, not an actual acting career; it's risky keeping an article with this kind of information because anyone with any such controversies and sources could put this themselves too. Also, the listed sources and, frankly, the information show this is all simply gossip news. SwisterTwister talk 07:05, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - Katarina Zavatska is only the fourth female player to complete a golden set in professional tennis since 1910.
- Sofia Kenin has a Wikipedia page and she only has one junior title, ranking No. 11 in the world in junior tennis.
- But Zavatska has two junior titles and two professional titles and ranked No. 14 in the world when she was a junior.
- Mira Antonitsch has a Wikipedia page and she qualified for the 1st round of the French Open junior tournament, peaking at a whopping 994th in the world.
- But Zavatska reached the quarterfinals of the French Open junior tournament, eliminated by the eventual champion, and is currently ranked 667th in the world.
- Anastasia Detiuc has a Wikipedia page and has no titles and a world ranking of 1035th.
- Dea Sumantri, Montinee Tangphong and Katie Swan have Wikipedia pages and don't seem to be any more accomplished than Zavatska.
- Superdupereditor (talk) 20:46, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
- Where to start. She completed the golden set as a junior. Not in the minor league ITF events, not in the minor-minor league 10,000 ITF events, and not on the WTA tour. As for the others mentioned: Kenin played on the main WTA Tour in the US Open. Antonitsch has also played in the big leagues on the WTA Tour at the 2016 Nuremberg Cup. Detiuc played for the Moldova Fed Cup team with a 3–1 record. Tangphong has played in WTA pro tour events and Swan has played at Wimbledon and the Great Britain Fed Cup team. Not sure about Sumantri qualifications. Bottom line is the juniors aren't notable unless they are ranked in the top 3 or they WIN one of the Jr. Majors. This is spelled out in the Tennis Project Guidelines for all to see. Fyunck(click) (talk) 21:57, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
- Incorrect. Zavatska's golden set occurred on the pro circuit [30]. I'm still stunned that Wikipedia's rules of tennis notability are so twisted that a player whose highest ranking is No. 976 with no singles titles and one doubles title can be Wikipedia worthy while a player whose highest ranking is No. 552 is not. Superdupereditor (talk) 02:48, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
- I stand corrected... it happened in qualifying for minor league tennis. And it's not a question of ranking... both those ranking stink for notability. One has played on the WTA tour and one hasn't.

The page was created in July 2014 by a WP:SPA [[35]]. The page has been orphaned since 2014. In the past 2 years, there were only 6 edits to the page -- two of them by me. This subject is not notable and fails WP:N. The original article contained links to a popular infographic the company created ([[36]] and [[37]]) which might have been why previous editors mistaken it for notable. A famous infographic created by a company does not make a company notable. Google news reports a lot of results for "Retale" but the news are, once again, public relation pieces the company produced (ie surveys, infographics, etc). WP:ORG says "An organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources." and, given that this is a tech company, a handfull of articles about the app before release is not in any way significant. What's more, the parent company, Bonial, doesn't even have its own Wikipedia page. All these signs show that the entity is not notable and fails WP:N. It also suggests that the Wikipedia page was created as part of a public relations campaign, and therefore an advert, which Wikipedia is not WP:NOT. CerealKillerYum (talk) 06:17, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

- Weak delete I was able to find articles about the APP at TechCrunch, The Verge, Digiday, Wall Street Journal. Most are about the launch of the APP and I wouldn't consider any to be much more than warmed-over press releases. The WSJ one is about investing in the startup. I think it's too soon for an article about the app, since most software fails, as do most startups. Note that a main competitor, RetailMeNot has a WP page that also looks shaky to me.

Comment This article should be deleted as the person in question is a mid level officer. Gurgaon is not a metro City. Page is promotional and autobiographical with exaggerations. While we do have some biographies of very senior police officers—mainly those with direct responsibility for major metro areas—we've never usually hosted biographies of officials at this level of smaller cities. Plus, the article appears to be heavily padded with things which happened to occur on his watch, rather than things for which he was directly responsible.

- Weak Redirect to Adrian Ellis, more or less per WikiDan61. I'm not seeing anything more than brief mentions, the best of which take the form "the company hired AEA Consulting to study it." I'm not seeing more than that, but I wouldn't have any objection to the article's recreation down the road if significant coverage can be found. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 13:18, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Agree with redirect to Adrian Ellis - references and other sources do not indicate noteworthiness for this company, nor does this Wikipedia article even though that is not taken into account. However, Adrian Ellis does appear to be a notable person, garnering signifigant coverage in the New York Times[38], [39], [40]; the Wall Street Journal [41]; and I think there is more. Ellis seems to be a prime example of what is considered a notable person on Wikipedia. I get tired of looking at questionable and unreliable sources while some claim these are sufficient. Mr. Ellis is a refreshing change. Steve Quinn (talk) 04:23, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- Delete The company is just a vehicle for Ellis to sell his services. Checking the company's two "offices" given on its website, 5 Hanna Lane, Unit 4 (from a quick google search) appears to be a 1-bed apartment, and the Somerset House office is shared space.

For the recond I created this page, but that was at a time when it seemed that we were heading toward having articles on every state pageant winner of both Miss USA and the Miss America feeders. Also for the record I was at one point personally aquainted with Ms. Bailey, although that was 4 years before she won the pageant. Specifically she lived in one of the wards I served in on my LDS mission and her father was in the stake presidency while her mother was the relief society president of the ward. I visited their home multiple times, and also went on missionary splits with her twin brother. I have since comes to see there is a lack of truly indepth coverage to sustain most articles on state winners via GNG, and the argument that these titles are some sort of office really does not hold weight. This case is an especially bad one of low sources, the picture of her 3 children (which I had no part in posting) not withstanding. Basically the fact of the matter is that Bailey is not a public figure, and we lack information to create a stand alone article. There might be justification for creating a basic info listing in the list of winners of Miss Nevada USA winners, but there is no reason for a stand alone article.

To begin with the previous nomination was part of a huge unruly bundle, that suffered from all huge bio nominations problems, if any of the people are notable than all will have support for keeping them. I think there is also a factor that over time the inclusion criteria of Wikipedia have gotten tighter. Back in 2006 when this article was created Wikipedia considered many candidates for public office who lost notable, since then we have realized that there are not the sources to create substantial meaningful articles on all such candidates. In the same way I think we have come to realize there is no good reason to have articles on all state-level beauty pageant winners. This is especially true when you consider that of the first 34 winners of Miss USA Tennessee we only have articles on two of them. One because she went on to become a notable singer/songwriter, the other because she was later one of the inagural flight attendants for Southwest Airlines and one of only 5 inaguaral ones (from 1971) still working as a flight attendant for the company in 2014, 43 years later. Even at that I have doubts if the coverage and sources on Sandra Force justify having the article, Considering that through the mid-1970s the industry goal with flight attendants was young attractive females in the model of cocktail waitresses while since the image of the flight attendant has been somewhat reworked, that people in their early 60s are on the job who have been there since their early 20s is not surprising, also it would be a much more interesting article if we were told how many original flight attendants Southwest had, because 5 out of 10 would not be as impressive as one of 5 out of 100. I digress, back to Grissom, she has been involved in minor modeling and acting and had a minor role in a reality TV show, but none of that adds up to notability.

Montanabw(talk) 04:17, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
- Comment Montanabw I agree that we need to discuss about the notability of beauty pageant title holders including this one in more detail. I read on one of these AFD's where an editor stated just winning a US state title does not give notability. "Where is that written in stone?" Usually the state winners go on to the national pageant where there is more chance to show notability. Also many subjects have one or more other things going on that also can denote notability. Since there has been an upswing in these beauty pageant winners, I hope we can come to a consensus on what wins confer notability. Any ideas?

- Leaning delete To be honest, my feelings on these articles are well documented. I agree that we need a really strong WP:NPAGEANT criteria, per the suggestion of User:Montanabw. And I am sorry to see that the Fashion deletion category is once again becoming a dumping ground for women who are probably perfectly nice, but who are reduced to presenting themselves as bait for the male gaze. I recall an attempt to establish guidelines for beauty pageant notability a couple of years back, but think it fizzled out. But it IS something that is needed - especially as every year we get a surge of promoters desperate for us to know that about 20 entrants to Miss Arendelle have mastered the art of walking and smiling simultaneously while wearing heels....

This article is not in some ways as problematic as other articles on beauty pageant winners. However it does not pass GNG at all. The sources are all either to works she created or comapnies she was affiliated with. Other than winning a state beauty pageant, she was involved in broadcasting at the local level, which is not enough to make her notable, and has written some minor books about localities in South Carolina, which are also not enough to make her notable.

- Delete I'm having trouble sourcing this. A news archive search turns up many Janets McDonald, but I don't see her on the first page of hits. I looked for the pictorial history she published on a pair of Atlanta institutions The Varsity and Fox Theatre (Atlanta), but all I found was an author talk at an Atlanta bookstore listed in the local newspaper events column (This week's literary events; Webb, Gina. The Atlanta Journal - Constitution [Atlanta, Ga] 01 Dec 2013: E.5.) it's just a listing, not a story or a review. Kept searching and finally found a 2006 feature story in The News & Observer that was picked up by the McClatchey wire service and ran in 1 other paper (the Bismark Tribune). However, it is profile of McDonald's older sister, Paula Miles, who was a beauty pageant producer. It contains a single paragraph about McDonald, "Her younger sisters, Janice McDonald and Ann Boyce, were the pageant queens. Both entered their share, and Janice advanced to the Miss USA pageant. Janice is the one who volunteered Miles for the job of state pageant coordinator, during a 1979 visit to the Miss Universe headquarters in New York City.

- Delete Even with the unverified stuff gone, this doesn't look like an unincorporated community - GNIS doesn't explicitly indicate it is, just that it was a populated place (based on a source from 1901), and the coordinates place it on top of Oakbrook Center. This source claims it was the site of a spring, but not a community or populated place, so this may just be a GNIS misclassification. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 12:37, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - Government-recognized populated place, based upon THIS. Carrite (talk) 17:13, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Carrite: I concur that GNIS lists it as a populated place. However, WP:GEOLAND has two criteria in the first group; populated and legally recognized. From all available sources, this location was never a legally recognized location. The GNIS data does not, by itself, pass GEOLAND. The article, as it stands, fails WP:GNG. That the spring existed is not enough. --Hammersoft (talk) 21:03, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
- Merge or Redirect into Fullersburg, Illinois; otherwise, Weak Keep and maybe rename to "Mammoth Springs (Illinois)" because it's more about a spring than a settlement: Part of the Bnnnperdue mess; this looks like it might have a chance at WP:GNG but I haven't found enough significant coverage to prove it, just a paragraph or so here and there. It appears to be mainly a (former) water spring, apparently owned by a single property owner, more than an actual settlement or community; I've only found one mention of a student in 4-H supposedly living in "Mammonth Springs, Illinois". This is a site in the area that, at that time, was called Brush Hill or Fullersburg, and is what "Spring Road" is named after. It's mentioned in passing in a few sources:
- Chapek, Etta Susan, Oak Brook in Thompson, Richard A. (1985). DuPage Roots. DuPage County Historical Society. Retrieved 2016-07-04.: "It was the Talmadge Family that is said to have been rudely awakened one night by the sudden eruption of a mammoth spring on their farm. The great volume of water was later harnessed and provided many homes in the Oak Brook/ Elmhurst area with running water for almost a generation before its depletion. It also contributed to the success of the Mammoth Spring Ice Company, established on the south bank of Salt Creek at Washington Street by the Ruchty family." The 1874 Atlas & History of DuPage County, Illinois map on the same web page shows the location, but not named: It's on the northwest side of the property marked "G.H. Talmadge" in section 23, about where the DoubleTree Hotel is now. (The adjacent "R. Reed" property is now Oakbrook Center shopping mall, the OfficeMax/shopping center across 16th Street, and some part of Oakbrook Terrace on the other side of the Kingery Highway.)
- Bulletin of the Illinois State Geological Survey (1939), Issue 65, Part 1, p. 34 also known as Geology of the Chicago Region: Part I. General; Part II. The Pleistocene, Issue 65, Parts 1-2, but it's only a snippet view on Google Books. The same paragraph exists in 1 or 2 other issues of the Bulletin. The paragraph is: "The largest spring in the Chicago region is three miles south of Elmhurst and 3 1/2 miles north of Hinsdale, on Spring Road just west of Salt Creek (Hinsdale quadrangle). It is almost in the center of section 23, T. 39 N., R. 11 E. Its unusual size seems due to subdrainage from an abandoned part of the creek valley west of the present route. The old valley contains basin-fill which is saturated to the surface. Elmhurst secured its municipal water supply from this spring until the population of the own exceeded 5,000. On the Chicago Folio map (1902) it is called Mammoth Springs, but the new map, though showing it, gives it no name."
- There's a photograph of the Mammoth Springs Ice Company's operation in Hinsdale by Sandra Bennett Williams (2013), p. 19), but no other mention of it as a location; it's unclear from the photo whether the ice is actually taken at Mammoth Springs or they just used the nearby name for their company further south.
- A reminder that a GNIS entry is not an indication of legal status, therefore not WP:GEOLAND on its own, and this is not even a census-designated place, and maybe not even be what someone would call a settlement. --Closeapple (talk) 21:51, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
- Note for closing admin: If this ends in merge/redirect, since I rewrote the article as a two-sentence summary stub, I can just copy-paste my own sentences into Fullersburg, Illinois (or whatever other target) under my own username so I show as the author in the page history and we don't have to "preserve attribution" from this article page. --Closeapple (talk) 17:52, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, MBisanz talk 03:00, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- Merge but I'm ok with deletion too. I concur with Closeapple that a GNIS entry is insufficient to pass WP:GEOLAND. This place isn't a place by any terms of WP:GNG or WP:GEOLAND. Ok, there was a spring. We can verify that, and that it had an impact on the local population. But, there's nothing that supports the idea, in any official way, that this was any sort of town, village, settlement, what have you. Information about the spring can be verified and merged. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:26, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

- Merge per Hammersoft. Doesn't seem like a real place. Prevan (talk) 00:13, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep and rename (which is really a talk page issue). Even Accuweather recognizes it [42], so it isn't a hoax, it is a geological feature. As such, it needs to be treated like one and not a town. Generally speaking, we keep articles on geological features that have any official notice at all, that is the goal of an encyclopedia after all. This qualifies. It is broken, not non-notable. Farmer Brown (talk) 23:42, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
- Accuweather is redundant: that, and millions of spam sites, autogenerate robo-pages for anything that shows up in GNIS, whether its real, a typo, or what. Those are all just a shortcut for geographic coordinates. I don't know why people keep over-emphasizing mere entries in a government list as conferring some kind of legal existence. Some strip malls and most churches and schools, going back 100+ years, back to one-room wooden schoolhouses, are also in GNIS. There is no Wikipedia guideline that says that a feature is inherently notable just because it showed up on an old map — particularly when the subject comes up for discussion, like it has here, and can be shown to meet or not meet WP:GNG based on evidence of significant coverage (not robolistings) in multiple independent sources (not database dumps of the same list), rather than presumption. --Closeapple (talk) 04:03, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
- And most schools and churches going back 100 years are notable, btw, so not sure your example is as powerful as you might think. As for guidelines, prior consensus has been that geological features that receive ANY coverage are considered noteworthy. Consensus trumps guidelines, as guidelines are written based on consensus, not the other way around. This isn't a rising pop star or new dot com start-up, it is a geological feature that is found on many maps, and that is precisely what an encyclopedia is expected to cover. Again, rename as described above and keep. Farmer Brown (talk) 09:32, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
- Would you please point to this prior consensus that trumps GNG and GEOLAND? Thanks, --Hammersoft (talk) 19:08, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

- Keep This article, as cleaned up, meets the standards for populated places specified by WP:GEOLAND. Alansohn (talk) 04:09, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
- @Alansohn: Really? How? GEOLAND stipulates "Populated, legally recognized places" (emphasis mine). I grant GNIS categorizes it as a populated place. That doesn't make it a legally recognized place, which must go hand in hand with populated. You can't pass GEOLAND with just one of those two criteria being met. That is, unless the place pass WP:GNG...which it clearly does not. Did the spring exist? Yeah. That doesn't mean it deserves an article. We can prove a tree in my front yard exists. That's why this is a clear candidate for merging. Please reconsider. --Hammersoft (talk) 19:08, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
