Here's a BLP which may hold some sort of a record, having existed for 15 years without ever containing a single citation. It's clearly a guy who's written a whole load of books about UNIX and various other tech subjects, but I can't find anything about the actual person. Prove me wrong...

- Comment - probably passes on WP:NAUTHOR(3) / WP:PROF(1) for his contributions to the niche field of UNIX history (h-index of 12, however citation metrics for software historians? tricky. A quarter century of UNIX and the co-written Salus, Peter H., and G. Vinton. Casting the Net: From ARPANET to Internet and Beyond have over 250 citations and probably quite a few reviews). Icewhiz (talk) 11:23, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. I added a few citations - there actually may be a case for GNG (he got some coverage for 60s-70s work in linguistics - in the shadow/working-with W. H. Auden and even interacting a bit with Tolkien (on which he wrote, also recently, and is cited on).... He has even more coverage on FSF activities (in the shadow of Richard Stallman), and most of all as a UNIX/software historian) - though I am not asserting it in my !vote. His work passes the bar of AUTHOR(3) and SCHOLAR(1) in regards to his work on UNIX history (one of his books being the definitive work on the topic in the 90s). He also possibly passes SCHOLAR(8) for editing Computing Systems and possibly other journals (not sure of reputation - so just possibly). He probably does not pass SCHOLAR(4-6) - HOWEVER - he is not far from this. His tenure as dean at University of North Florida is noted as influential by a few sources on the university, and he was involved in the founded of the Department of Linguistics at University of Massachusetts.Icewhiz (talk) 14:06, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

Promotional article about a subject that does not meet WP:GNG. I can't find any coverage that is better than a mere-mention or a quote of the subject. The article asserts that the subject has won two Emmy awards. However, these, Emmys were for films that Cooper produced, and Cooper is not credited in the award announcements, so I don't know that they're enough to meet WP:ANYBIO in the absence of any coverage. Finally, while deletion is not cleanup, it is worth noting that the article is written in a very promotional manner and primarily cites press releases–not quite enough to justify CSD G11 IMO, but not a good sign for the subject's notability. signed, Rosguill talk 22:01, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

- Comment: I would want to say keep to this article, since a national dish seems like it could be noteworthy. That said, when I went looking for resources I found that this page (namely, the recipe and some text accompanying it) is almost entirely copy-pasted from the official web-page of the government of Grenada [5] by an unregistered user without any citation. In fact, you can tell they copy-pasted because a misspelling with the word turmeric and saffron was retained from the official government website that were later corrected by a different user. There is an entire NPR article [6] about this dish (which uses the same government recipe, albeit citing it) so I think the page could be salvaged but as it is there's a glaring issue. Userqio (talk) 02:28, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: Hello. First I want to say that this is not my page. I had never heard of oil down before yesterday. I was searching for recipes, and the term oil down came up in a search, so I had to click on the link since the name was so odd (IMO.) I have no connection to the country of Grenada, and I have never been there, but I am fascinated with history and also with food, so food that has historical significance is one of my favorite things to read about. I agree that a page that is merely a copy/paste of a recipe is not what Wikipedia is about, so I have made some changes, and linked to some articles that I found interesting. I would like to work on this page more this weekend, when I have more time. Perhaps the recipe should go - I'll let the majority make that decision. Please see my edits and let me know what you think.Widjididji (talk) 16:24, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: The article is now much different than it was when nominated thanks to Widjididji's work. I'm leaning toward withdrawing the nomination and looking forward to further improvements as promised before making my final decision. I do still say that the recipe, though now properly attributed, does belong in the cookbook section of Wikibooks rather than in the article itself. Geoff | Who, me? 16:50, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: Wait, ... what? There's a cookbook section of Wikibooks? I didn't know that. Yes, absolutely the recipe should be removed from this page, then. Another reason being that I just made a comment about how there is no one, set recipe, as each cook, family, and/or region has its own recipe. I will remove the recipe, but just want to have a chance to find the original poster so I can let him/her know why I'm removing it. Still have a lot of other clean-up to do. Widjididji (talk) 02:10, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: Okay, I've gone about as far as I'm going to go this weekend on this article. Next step (for me), find one of the many recipes I've come across this week, and make a batch of oil down to see how it tastes. And add Grenada to my travel bucket list. Please let me know if you see anything that needs revisited on this page. I truly think it deserves to be retained as a true (i.e., not stub) page on Wikipedia. Thank you for your consideration.Widjididji (talk) 20:04, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: The one thing that I really think this page lacks is a photo. I've made several requests to websites asking if I can use their photos. I don't want to accidentally use one that is copyrighted without permission. I'll keep trying ... or maybe I'll add my own photo when I get around to making my own pot of oil down.Widjididji (talk) 20:19, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

The article subject is a book paragraph (!) that contains a list of countries based on artbitrary criteria not widely supported in economics, and unchanged since 2001. Therefore, of low informational value in 2019 (and potentially misleading). The entire topic of developed contries/economies has been described in more detail and nuance at Developed country and linked articles (e.g., List of countries by GNI (nominal) per capita).

The result was keep. This seems to be a rather pointed AFD nomination. I strongly suggest that the nominator either step away from the conversation entirely or take a deep breath and actually participate in a consensus discussion on the talk page. The consensus in the last discussion is the same as the consensus in this discussion, it's notable, and as one of your peers said notability isn't temporary. Whatever issues or qualms you have with the article need to be discussed, not pushed bypassing procedures in place to work on articles with issues. AFD is not cleanup.

- Lantern Entertainment (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)
Lantern Entertainment is Weinstein Company (TWC), as it is Weisntein Company's assets and remaining staff despite a new business form. Under that line of thinking DreamWorks would have three different articles. In the prior deletion discussion, explaining the same issue to Lantern employees where taken as "edit warring", which their editing or tell us what to do is COI. Those opposing support a violation of WP:ORGSIG, ie. just because it exists it is notable. They would also claiming WP:INHERITORG based on its purchase of TWC. Additional since that deletion discussion further actions make it unlikely Lantern would met WP:COMPANY. Lantern Entertainment only became a transitory entity by its transfer of it assets to Spyglass Media Group then holding entity by holding Lantern Capital's holding in Spyglass.

- Keep because this company is notable on its own. There are numerous articles about this company proceeding with Weinstein Co. assets. Los Angeles Times says, "The veteran South African-born executive has teamed with Lantern Entertainment, which bought the assets of the defunct Weinstein Co. last year... it acquired the remains of the Weinstein Co. out of Chapter 11 bankruptcy in July for $289 million." Weinstein Co. went bankrupt. That company's article should be historical. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 14:05, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. the article Erik cites is about the transfer of the Weinstein Co. asset to Spyglass Media Group, which has its own article being a reactivation of an existing company. Spshu (talk) 15:52, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep as article was recently kept at AfD, sourcing supports the AfD outcome, and notability is not temporary. As the closing admin said in the previous AfD, "separate editorial consensus can be decided as to whether the articles should be merged, changed, or moved". I understand that the nominator (of both AfDs) disagreed with the previous outcome, but the way to handle this going forward is at the article talk pages. Talk: Lantern Entertainment and Talk:Spyglass Media Group are thataway. Bakazaka (talk) 18:29, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. Sourcing did NOT support the AfD outcome nor notability. At best, at purchasing Weinstein Company is inheriting notability, which does NOT grant notability. Others consider this an appropriate forum. Thus you are going to make an issue out of having an official deletion discussion or informal ones on the the talk page.

- The more interesting diffs are [7] and [8], in which you blanked and redirected the page multiple times AFTER the previous AfD, against community consensus, without discussion, and after being reverted.

- Because as point out in the nomination and in the edit summary, Lantern Entertainment will have only three actions, purchase of Weinstein assets, purchase of full control of three Quentin Tarantino films then the transfer to Spyglass Media Group. You were disruptive at the last AfD for claiming that the only place these are articles can be discussion are the talk pages - in defiance of the vary exists of AfD as you do again here. The prior AfD is based on that it is an article fork, same article thus notability isn't addressed. Making false claim so as a new consensus can be formed and attempt to short circuit this discussion because I was bold in understanding Lantern Entertainment's notability status and that existing is not per WP:ORGSIG "No company or organization is considered inherently notable." for which the redirect reverter explain as the removal reason. Which a prior editor put forth for reverting making a redirect "rvt redirection - this is a separate company".

- Speedy Keep Company plainly exists and is distributing content; as with my last nom vote!, this is completely disruptive, you're tuning out any consensus that's being built for your own interpretations, and whatever is going on with Spyglass, we'll come to that road when we come to it. Bakazaka has the right interpretations of your actions again. I also see zero bytes of conversation on the Lantern and Spyglass talk pages, so you obviously have never considered posting anything to those pages, nor notifying interested users, when that's the first step well before deletion. Speaking of, archive your own user talk page already; someone on an average connection shouldn't have to wait 90 seconds to load and read it. Nate • (chatter) 04:03, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- Partial support The nomination is very difficult to understand. However, what I can decipher of it, I sort of agree with. Lantern Entertainment is for nearly all intents and purposes, the Weinstein Company under a different name and corporate structure. It is therefore notable, because the Weinstein Company is. But as a result of that, it is not an entirely distinct entity from the Weinstein Company. I think in cases like these, the Weinstein Company should be moved over Lantern Entertainment, and a single article which contains the entire history of the company should exist, because Wikipedia doesn't handle this consistently at the best of times -- e.g. Mondelez is actually the legal successor to the old Kraft Foods Inc., while the article for Sony Music, includes its history before it merged with (the old) BMG, the period where it was merged with BMG is then covered under Sony BMG, then for the current period, where BMG sold its stake and the BMG name was removed, Sony Music again becomes the article which covers that period in history. The current SME is clearly a renamed SBMG, but because the names matches that of the original Sony Music, they are covered in a single article. Getting back to my point, Wikipedia's general treatment of continuity in company historys is often arbitrary and inconsistent -- in this case I think Lantern and Weinstein are one entity, and should have one entry, at the newest incarnation. But I can't fully support this nomination because I'm not certain that's what's being proposed, since that should be a merge listing anyway. - Estoy Aquí (talk) 12:11, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- To summarize: You're actually proposing a keep for this AfD, and adding an editorial recommendation to merge the Weinstein article into this one. Bakazaka (talk) 17:21, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Yes. But my understanding of the proposal seems to read like that is what is being proposed, in the other direction (deleting this, and merging it's content into the Weinstein Company). But it's listed as a deletion, not a merge, hence partial support. Also because I'm not certain that's what the requester is proposing - Estoy Aquí (talk) 20:29, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- FYI at the time of this RM there appeared to be a consensus against moving the TWC article to Lantern. I for one think the ouster of the Weinsteins gives Lantern a rather different identity, but either way we need a consensus at a broader level. Nardog (talk) 00:08, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- To summarize: You're actually proposing a keep for this AfD, and adding an editorial recommendation to merge the Weinstein article into this one. Bakazaka (talk) 17:21, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep If Spyglass turns out to be handling all Weinstein titles in the future and hence Lantern indeed a transitory entity, it might make sense to merge this article with either TWC or Spyglass. But at this point it is premature (WP:CRYSTAL) to make either assumption. Nardog (talk) 00:01, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

After the author put this up several times without any sources (and was reverted), I left them a message about sourcing requirements. My own search check didn't look promising, but I thought they might have access to better stuff. Guess not: every reference provided is either self-published or purely promotional. That includes the two most reasonable-looking ones [9][10], both of which are clearly identified as marketing features. - Currently lack of sufficient independent coverage, fails WP:NSOFT. - Admittedly the previous incumbent (misspelling redirect to Cluedo) is kind of dumb, but this is not the material to replace it. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:36, 15 April 2019 (UTC) Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:36, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

For entertainer, the rules are:
- Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.
- Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following.
- Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.
He has acted in several notable films of Bangladesh. And in these films he has played a significant role. He is known as 'Bunty' for his awesome comic roles in Musafir (references addeed). His another notable film is Jaaz Multimedia's Dhat Teri Ki. In this film his charecter name was Bomb Squad. He is a notable charecter of the film. The comic actor has achieved much popularity (references added). In a film review written in Bengali, he was described as 'scene stealer' of Musafir (references added) . The article should be appeared on Wikipedia, I personally think that.Smnsbd1971 (talk) 09:21, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Out of 12 references you've added- SHOWTIMES (non notable review site), Bangla Movie Data Base (WP:UGC), blog.bdnews24 (blog), bioscopeblog (blog) and mukhomukhosh (non notable magazine) are not reliable sources to establish notability. The coverage of New Nation and kalerkantho are routine news, the review of daily star is about the film not the person which leaves priyo dot com, an online news portal with questionable reliability. ~ Nahid Talk 10:16, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

Delete If one googles Abdullah Ali, virtually no results show up regarding him as a soccer player. As a challenge, I urge you to google Abdullah Ali, there is no credible information on Google.

- Your nomination counts as a delete !vote, and a number of results come up, see [11] [12] [13], Abdulla Ali is also a valid English search term due to the transliteration, and googling his Arabic name along with the Arabic name of Hatta brings up results (I do not speak Arabic, but there were quite a few.) SportingFlyer T·C 00:26, 16 April 2019 (UTC)]
Comment:While those articles did indeed mention Abdullah's name. We wasn't primarily mentioned, he was briefly mentioned as a mid-fielder and some of the news articles named him "Abdulla" instead of "Abdullah". Secondly, the article "Abdullah Ali" should be deleted because there literally not enough sources. Where is the verifiable information or citation sources for his height and date of birth? There is literally one source only, therefore I propose deletion. Lastly, there are several other players on the Hatta soccer club who don't have articles. Proudpakistani11 (talk) 01:00, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Other stuff not existing is not a reason to delete, and as shown there are lots of potential Arabic sources. Soccerway is a quality reference for height/date of birth, Abdulla/Abdullah isn't a problem either as mentioned. 1/8th of your total edits to Wikipedia have been to this AfD, which also concerns me.

Passes NFOOTBALL and very likely passes GNG with some translation help. Jogurney (talk) 16:31, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep – meets NFOOTY by a bit, barely makes GNG. 100+ games over five+ seasons in the UAE's top league (WP:FPL-listed) per Soccerway. There is probably Arabic-language coverage of him that is inaccessible to me. These two interviews with some reporting (barely) count as SIGCOV for me because it's sustained and in reliable sources: 2012 interview in Gulf News and 2017 interview in Emarat Al Youm. If it were a second- or third-division player, I'd probably be !voting delete, but I think a player who's played many games over multiple seasons in the top division in the UAE is likely notable, and the marginal SIGCOV I can find tends to reinforce that.

- My original Keep comment ran, "How are these not dab pages? The OP says, "No one will get here". Yet, if I search for "Eastern", it's offered at the end. If I search for "Eastern Pro..." And that's when I realized that, no, in fact this is different. It links to the articles linked in Eastern, but is itself an orphan. This is long obsolete, as the rest of the dab infrastructure for these types of articles has evolved but it's stayed static. As creator of the articles in question, I say Delete. --Golbez (talk) 13:28, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

- Merge back into the parent DABs and redirect as {{R from incomplete disambiguation}}. Since these mainly just link to other DAB pages, and none of the parent dab page (e.g. Northern (disambiguation), Eastern (disambiguation), etc.) are that long, there no length concern about merging them there. On the whole, these are valid dab pages since most of the entries meet WP:PTM, though admittedly some entries should be in the "See also" and not in the main body. Overall though, it's easier for navigation to merge them back up to the parent dabs. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 17:44, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete all. I would have no objection to including e.g. Eastern District (disambiguation) in the 'See also' section of Eastern. I think that these four titles should be deleted, however, as they don't constitute disambiguation pages on their own, and there is no reasonable place for them to redirect to. That is to say, it is no more reasonable in principle for Eastern (country subdivision) to redirect to Eastern than to Eastern District or Eastern Region, etc. Cnilep (talk) 08:27, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Carolina as well. robertsky (talk) 00:14, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Robertsky: WP:JUDGE applies to statewide judges, such as state supreme courts, and not state district courts or county court judges. There Loretta Copeland Biggs is an appointed Federal district court judge and therefore automatically qualifies as notable, so they are not particularly similar cases either. While Gray could possibly qualify as notable under WP:GNG, I didn't find any coverage that indicated that she met notability standards. Best, GPL93 (talk) 00:21, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

- Keep: Appears to pass WP:GNG (let me know if I'm making a technical error here) Lightning321 (talk) 04:21, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Where's the evidence that she passes GNG? To be clear, GNG is not just "count the footnotes and keep anything that meets or exceeds two" — GNG also tests for the depth of how much a source is or isn't about her, the geographic range that the sourcing represents, and the context of what the person is getting coverage for. So no, if a person didn't hold a public office that constitutes an automatic pass of our inclusion criteria for public figures, then they don't automatically clear GNG just because they can show two or three hits from their own hometown local media — a county court judge could still clear GNG if you can write a really substantial article that cites dozens of distinct sources instead of just two or three, or if you can show evidence that they receive coverage that nationalizes significantly beyond where they would just be routinely expected to have some, but a person at that level of significance does not automatically pass GNG just because the article has three footnotes in it.

- While there have been prestigious Fellows of the RSA, fellowship per se is not particularly selective or prestigious, and is essentially open to anyone who files an application and coughs up a monthly fee of £14.83.

- The other listed award, Freedom of the City, is also given to anyone on the electoral rolls for the City or London (for free), or to those who file an application and pay a "fine" of £100.

!Strong Keep. Easily meets WP:GNG. In addition, WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE states "Presidents, chief executive officers and chairpersons of the boards of directors of companies listed in the Fortune 500 (US) or the FTSE 100 Index (UK) are generally kept as notable". This article is about a man who has been the CFO of one of the very biggest and most discussed, and oversaw its IPO. He's been featured in the Wall Street Journal more than once. Mentions in business publications, newspapers and other sources numerous times for his work at Facebook, Genentech, Lyra, and other companies. Accountants may be boring, but they still get coverage. Here's just a few. We confer a football player who subbed into one NFL game automatic notability. CFO of one of the largest and most talked about companies of all time may be less popular here, but we've got a guy who's been that, CEO of a start-up that has gotten plenty of coverage (Lyra), sat on the boards of many other large corps, an exec at Genentech.... Anyway, here's some more references, there are literally thousands. [40] [41] [42] [43].Jacona (talk) 11:55, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

- Keep Easily passes WP:NFOOTBALL there are sources out there, has played way enough professional football to qualify for an article regardless of its poor quality.

- Delete, fails to meet WP:NACTOR with just a handful of minor roles. The existing source is not a good one and there's just not much out there. Ravensfire (talk) 15:44, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Close, and rePROD, with special obligation for anyone de-PRODding to open a new AFD for and explain why they think the article should be kept. Sheldybett's deprod rationale is invalid, and shows the same poor understanding of policy that recently got him banned from a variety of procedures that, under a broad interpretation, might include this. Ideally any admin closing this discussion should also issue a warning to the nom. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 06:33, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete- per nom. Does not pass WP:NACTOR. That said, I don't see anything wrong with the deprod. At the time the BLPPROD was placed there were no sources of any kind. But one source, admittedly trashy, was added that seems to verify most of the article's content so deprodding is probably OK. Besides which, letting this discussion run to a delete consensus will be quicker than closing it, re-prodding, and then waiting a whole week. Reyk YO! 20:03, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
- The deprod was wrong because the unreliable source was only added after the blpprod notice so the article should have been deleted under WP:BLPPROD Atlantic306 (talk) 12:54, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
- the BLP deletion template may be removed only after the biography contains a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article. If the biography remains unsourced after seven days, the biography may be deleted. That sure sounds to me like adding a source makes deprodding OK. Might help if you actually read WP:BLPPROD. Also, if you'd read the article you would know it's about a woman. Reyk YO! 14:56, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
- I think the doubt here is over whether this source is reliable. If there is any doubt then surely the best thing to do is to hold a discussion here, where that and other potential reasons for deletion can be discussed to form a consensus, rather than use a procedure that takes just as long as a deletion discussion anyway?

I don't see that this estate agent is any more notable than hundreds of others. It carries on its routine business of selling property (and related products), and sometimes the properties are of interest to the press. The coverage of the company itself seems very sparse, and I don't believe that it meets our revised notability guidelines for companies.

- Delete: In fairness, the original article went through AfC and a couple of subsequent edits have been proposed via the Talk page, following the processes recommended for connected contributors. However, as to notability, the references are a mix of routine takeover/renaming announcements, market surveys by the company, and coverage of particular transactions in which the firm has been involved, and from which notability is not inherited. These are sufficient to confirm that this as a firm going about its business, but I am not seeing evidence of encyclopaedic notability. AllyD (talk) 15:00, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
