It is verifiable that the subject is a professor at Pepperdine [1] but with neither a title of distinction nor heavy citations (his highest citation count on Google scholar is 42) he does not appear to pass WP:PROF. It is also verifiable that he was sued for fraud [2], but with neither sourcing for an actual conviction for criminal wrongdoing nor any evidence of long-term and ongoing interest in the case he doesn't pass WP:CRIMINAL. As it is, the article seems aimed more at sensationalizing the lawsuit than at providing encyclopedic information about the subject. I think we're better off without it. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:37, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Even though I originally created this page, I agree with the points made by @DavidFixit: on this articles talk page.

- Delete Geni.com and Wikipedia are both used as sources, as well as Loeb Tree, which are all not RS. Since author is requesting, and there are no RS or anything, I think we can do a CSD, rather than wait for a full seven days for a AFD, or at least let it be a snow close. Sir Joseph (talk) 00:10, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
DavidFixit (talk) 18:59, 26 July 2020 (UTC) @Ibn Daud - I am pleased that you understand the issue. It will be as well to point out that the erroneous patronymic designation has now been corrected in Geni, but there is still a need for someone who has enough knowledge to analyse the original sources for these genealogies to confirm the family tree as it exists now, and if necessary make further corrections on Geni platform, quoting the sources in the appropriate places there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DavidFixit (talk • contribs) 05:46, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

This album doesn't even appear on the band's AllMusic discography [3].

Author and popular UFO historian Richard Dolan told Motherboard that it is irresponsible to 'throw cold water' on this before any results come in. 'True skepticism doesn't equate into reflexive debunking, but an honest inquiry into the data,' Dolan stated. 'What is obvious is that this announcement would have been considered astonishing as little as two years ago. The fact that the U.S. military is interested in this should cause us to become more attentive to what exactly is going on. Therefore, I'd say "close attention" rather than caution is the order of the day.'

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Alexa Rochelle Score is a former professional wakeboarder and current Minnesota TV host. Apart from Ms. Score's website, the article cites just one single source. This source is a half-hour TV documentary[1] about Ms. Score produced by a PBS affiliate in Appleton, Minnesota. I haven't watched any of the documentary.
I wonder:
A) Does the TV documentary qualify as "non-local" per WP:AUD?
B) WP:GNG says: "There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected." I did a Google search, but don't think I found any additional sources. Do any more sources exist?
If we're unable to find at least two or three independent sources which pass WP:AUD, I think deletion would probably be appropriate.
P.S. Our article was contributed either by Ms. Score or by her manager, according to this edit summary. If we decide to keep it, it could definitely use some cleanup.
Kind regards, —Unforgettableid (talk) 19:23, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- ^ "Adventure Unknown". TV special. Pioneer PBS (Granite Falls, Minnesota).
Alexa Score grew up on Green Lake, in Spicer, Minnesota, and won the national women's amateur wakeboard title in 2010. This new documentary traces Score's journey from an athletic and daring young girl to her emergence as a national competitor on the wakeboard circuit. It is an inspirational story of perseverance through pain and impossible odds that captures how Score faces an uncertain future.

The article does not meet notability test. I found trivial mentions of work beyond work cited in Wikipedia. There is no independent source cited for his two 2007 awards or available online, although this information has been parroted on many websites that crib from Wikipedia throughout the web. Many other attorneys could have won the same awards in 2007; they surely do not merit Wikipedia articles.
Working on high-profile litigation is not itself notable, especially when hundreds of attorneys can work on a case and perform very minor suporting roles. For instance, just one nonprofit worked with at least 600 attorneys on Gitmo litigation as of 2008, but merely appearing on a legal team for a notable case does not meet notability guidelines. Almost every big law firm lawyer works on high-profile cases; Wikipedia does not list hundreds of thousands of lawyers merely because of that.
Additionally, fails WP:NOSALESMEN parts 4 and 5. His contributions are not significant and are primarily a personal resume: the article consists solely of his former and current jobs, his schools, the names of his former clients, two awards, and his work producing a Powerpoint. The article focuses on what his clients have done or been accused of, or what other government actors (like John Yoo) did -- not what he has done. Signing on to be part of a legal team is itself not notable. The sole exception in the article is a link to a blog from 2007 that cites a four-slide Powerpoint presentation that Mr. Raut created. Creating four Powerpoint slides does not merit a Wikipedia entry, since there is no indication in the article the slides had any effect whatsoever on anyone or any entity.
The article's other claim about his actions, that "Mr. Raut and fellow habeas attorney Candace Gorman were two of the first people to dispute the administration's charge that approximately 30 former Guantanamo detainees had returned to the battlefield," is unsourced; the cited source (number 5) does not mention Mr. Raut's and Ms. Gorman's supposed stance. Nor is it clear why disputing a Bush Administration stance (something half of Americans, if not more, did) is notable.
"Ambassadors are not considered inherently notable". Currently, Mr. Raut is a functionary on a congressional committee and thus far less notable than ambassador to a foreign nation.

The result was no consensus. Some of the "keep" opinions are unpersuasive. Per WP:CRYSTAL, we do not rely on the "historians of the future", but on those of the past or present. The "keep" side's references to GNG are a much stronger argument - like everything related to Donald Trump, this has plenty of media coverage. To this, the "delete" side replies that not every single thing Donald Trump does deserves an article, and that the lasting significance of this particular presidential pronouncement remains to be seen. That's also a valid argument, but perhaps no less speculative. Clearly, for now, there's no consensus here about whether to cover this piece of information in a separate article or in the context of one of the many other articles about Trump.

This is WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTTRIVIA. Sure, a lot of sources are talking about it right now, because its in the news cycle. But does this phrase have lasting notability? At the moment, it doesn't appear as such. If we imagine it to be a WP:NEOLOGISM, then it definitely doesn't meet our standards. While deletion is not cleanup, I also note that this article is little more than "he said it. Oh and you can buy t-shirts that say it".

- Merge or rename - The words themselves are not a unique phrase (and is not equvilant to Covfefe). Its not even a campaign slogan ("lock her up"). It's just a list of words that may or may not be the actual words used by his doctor. Nevertheless, the core topic of DJTs mental fitness (which has far more references) does relate to existing pages and itself may meet WP standards. Option 1) merge into existing page (either Donald Trump or Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution). Option 2) rename to something like "Donald Trump and the 25th Ammendment".

- Keep. I've been out of the loop for a few days and did not understand several memes I was seeing—until I googled the phrase and found this article (which satisfactorily explains it). ―cobaltcigs 15:02, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Wikipedia is not a (phrase) dictionary, especially for terms of novel conception (i.e. neologisms). Being the quotable of the day (or two) does not make it notable. Coverage generated in such a fashion is routine, just like for any top news item on any given day. I doubt anyone will remember this in 10 years, although the general trend of Trump's mental capacities being questioned, and him bragging about his faculties, will be. The people who have found this article "useful" have only found it so because they are looking for the wrong things (news and dictionary) in Wikipedia. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 16:31, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep The reasons given in several of the "delete" contributions above are unpersuasive. WP:RECENT, and in particular its section WP:10YT, does not speak in favour of deleting articles. It's mostly not about creating or deleting articles but about avoiding undue focus on recent events in existing articles. Where it does mention deletion, it makes several points against it: "Still, these articles are valuable for future historical research."; "Just wait and see. Remember there is no deadline, and consensus can change later on. Editors writing today do not have a historical perspective on today's events, and should not pretend to have a crystal ball."; " Proper perspective requires [...] the passage of time." Claiming that we already know that this currently highly notable phrase will not be notable in the future is not in line with these guidelines. Joriki (talk) 18:45, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Massive coverage in sources, relates to many important issues, and relevant to history. Arguments that this is a neologism or news story are a stretch and unpersuasive to me. To the extent that Donald Trump's presidency will be notable in the future, this is notable in the future. Croctotheface (talk) 19:08, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. Easily passes article creation criteria with massive coverage in RS. Trump always makes sure of that. -- Valjean (talk) 20:47, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep due to this quote's status as a reference point for the President's mental fitness and job performance during the election year. Beyond this substantive discourse, the phrase has become iconic and has been weaponized by all sides of the political aisle. Covfefe should be informative here - none of the "Delete" votes have thus far explained why this would be less notable - if anything, it broaches on more relevant questions about qualifications over social media use. 1Matt20 (talk) 22:31, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

- Comment: I think that many of the Delete arguments are based on WP:UNENCYCLOPEDIC and WP:IDONTLIKEIT. WP:FART talks about tabloid-esque magazines like People and Us Weekly; it is not meant to negate coverage from CBS News, The New York Times, The Baltimore Sun and Rolling Stone. Stepping back from the "I find it funny/I think it's dreck" feelings, I think a key area of dispute is whether this will have lasting significance in the campaign over the next several months. I don't believe that that question is answerable right now; people are making predictions about news cycles that are yet to come. Given that, I think that the most sensible answer is to keep the article, and revisit the conversation in a few months. If it's deleted and turns out to be notable, then it would be hard to come back and recreate it with a Delete consensus on the books. — Toughpigs (talk) 17:13, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

The sources provided are not just passing mentions but include articles in respectable publications such as the New York Herald.

The obituary in the Brooklyn Eagle billed as a front page article, well have a look and see how many articles are on that page and what they deal with. This article is a vanity piece created by an editor intent on having a wikipedia page for every one of their ancestors Lyndaship (talk) 15:36, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - The article is on one of thousands of pilots, a handful of whom are notable. This ones importance has been inflated by a COI editor is a family member who has been plastering Joseph Henderson's name all over other articles, including the Brooklyn Bridge and Statue of Liberty, and making exaggerated claims about him. Aside from the editors who have been trying to clean this up, the article's sole editor is the COI editor. WP:RUNOFTHEMILL WP:SYNTH Netherzone (talk) 15:58, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as is to be expected for a memorial page created by one of his descendants, the article is rife with good old stories about his experiences, rather than encyclopedic notable achievements. Example:
Assuming we can take these and all the notinherited synth (Brooklyn Bridge, Statue of Liberty etc) out, I don't see much here other than the fact that he was a ship's pilot who piloted big boats into and out of the NY harbour. A few of the claims, for example that he owned several pilot boats shortly after getting his license, seem very dubious.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 16:47, 17 July 2020 (UTC)On October 28, 1872, Henderson, Captain of the New York pilot boat "Pet, No. 9", sighted the brig Emily during a heavy gale. The crew of the Emily came on board the pilot boat Pet, which lay by the brig until 7 p.m., at witch time the Emily capsized. It was not until the next day that the crew members were transferred from the Pet to the steamship Italy, from Liverpool, and brought to the New York port.
- Keep Henderson served as Maritime pilot for the Sandy Hook Pilot Association for 45 years. His notability comes from primary and secondary sources, which should be sufficient for WP:GNG and WP:BASIC guidelines. Secondary sources include: Charles Edward Russell, who wrote about Joseph Henderson when he worked for the Federal Government during the Civil War. He was also involved in an important U.S. Supreme Court cases - THE MARTELLO v. THE WILLEY, 153 U.S. 64 (1894). He was notable for being the oldest and wealthiest of New York Pilots. He was selected to tow the French steamship which transported the statue of Liberty. --Greg Henderson (talk) 22:12, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Greghenderson2006 once again fails to disclose their COI, per WP:COI "If you become involved in an article where you have any COI, you should always let other editors know about it, whenever and wherever you discuss the topic."ThatMontrealIP (talk) 23:06, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep According to the delete votes he is just another harbor pilot, and we can't have an article for every harbor pilot. But is he just another harbor pilot as claimed? The way to tell is comparison with his peers. The essence of notability is someone who is set apart from his peers. There is no Pulitzer Prize or Nobel for harbor captains, so we have to look at what we know:
- The Federal government gave him an "unusual reward" for his work during the Civil War. It was "unusual" presumably because other harbor pilots did not receive it.
- He was chosen by the Brooklyn Bridge commission to investigate the viability to pass harbor traffic. Given the BB history, this would have been a significant honor, it demonstrates he was considered an out of the ordinary harbor captain - they chose him and not others for this honor. The Bridge was the biggest thing in the world (or at least America) for a time, such a position would have been competitive and not given out lightly by the commission. I know about the history of the BB how they operated, everything they did was under the microscope of the public and press.
- He was involved in many accidents that were written about in the press, apparently the most of any harbor pilot, another thing setting him apart.
- AFAIK we have 1 article about a 19th century harbor pilot from anywhere in the world - potentially soon zero. There appears to be no Wikipedia understanding of what makes a notable harbor captain. I am sympathetic to COI concerns, but there is a feeling COI is being overweighted for reasons beyond what is best in this case. -- GreenC 22:41, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment The unusual reward is an exceptional claim and therefore should be supported by exceptional sources, it would appear to be sourced to Russel's book and I can find no supporting evidence in any other source. It would also be unusual for a state not to pay people who did work for it. The Brooklyn Bridge claim is partially unsourced and relates to appearing as an expert witness before a sub committee (not the commission) probably on behalf of those opposed to the bridge construction, how notable is that? Most committees hear hundreds of peoples opinions. Finally given the period he worked in there is nothing notable about being involved (peripherally) in many nautical incidents. Lyndaship (talk) 13:29, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. The Brooklyn Eagle and NY Post obits alone establish notability. Interesting sourced article about interesting person no more obscure than thousands of other bios on WP.

- Delete. Obvious vanity project. No judgement really displayed as to why it should be here. Example:
This is one of those cases, where the guidelines demand, that articles be educational is largely ignored, in favour of notability proven by sources that impress us; when clearly he is peripheral at best. This is a puffed up piece. There are many lives more interesting than this without the sources that impress us, it is not encyclopedic by any measure. This piece is not educational, in that it adds nothing to the actual articles referred to, be they ships, people, things or places. I almost fell asleep reading it. Good example of how imperfect the projects's policies can be, if we ignore the the prime directive of notability which is educational value. Even the newspaper's obit was a filler, a bread and butter piece from a parochial paper. I suppose that there are many lives included here of similar import of people known nationally or even at big city level, justifying a statue, but this man is at village level really. Broichmore (talk) 16:51, 22 July 2020 (UTC)Pilot Henderson, not speaking French, was somewhat embarrassed when the officers, who did not speak English, took off their caps to him, and he looked wistfully back to the Atlantic, but Capt. De Saune slapped him on the back, and then the old pilot went aft to find a sailor who could speak French.
- Comment: Below are reasons he is notable for WP:BASIC:
- One of the original members of the New York and Sandy Hook pilots’ association (45 years)
- One of the best known of the Sandy Hook pilots
- Guided the Baltimore outside Sandy Hook with the body of the Inventor John Ericsson to Sweden
- Worked for the Federal Government during the Civil War with the southern blockade
- Owned the 1/3 pilot boat William Bell, No. 24, which was sunk and burned by the CSS Tallahassee
- At different times owned 6 of the Sandy Hook pilot boats
- Determined the height and span of the Brooklyn Bridge
- Expressly selected to tow the French steamship which transported the Statue of Liberty
- Let's WP:AGF and improve the article to make it more encyclopedic. --Greg Henderson (talk) 23:45, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: Very thin. Your stretching WP:BASIC to its very limits and beyond. This article does not comply with WP:AIM and WP:PURPOSE.
- See paragraph Any biography in WP:BASIC points 1 to 3.
- 1. The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times. Answer: No.
- 2. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field. Answer: debatable. Snippets of trivia from some newspapers.
- 3. The person has an entry in the Dictionary of National Biography or similar publication. Answer: No.
- This article is a C.V. with anecdotes. Even the articles's summary gives the game away Captain Joseph Henderson ... was a 19th century American harbor pilot who guided large vessels into and out of New York Harbor as a Sandy Hook pilot.. Yes, thats it in a nutshell: so what! The leading paragraph itself fails to explain the subject's notability.
- Are people here seriously saying this man is "worthy of notice" or "note" — that (he) is, "remarkable" or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" here in a so called repository of knowledge? Yes, they are. Astounding.

- Keep There are heaps of sources for someone from the 1800s, front page billing is significant and to my knowledge there have been significant changes in the format of newspapers since this time which explains why the articles are shorter.

- You're right if they did chart, she might be notable but they didn't and I can't find any sources to verify it, even through Billboard itself. The fact that there are no reliable sources is highly problematic, they're all interviews and self published stuff alongside press releases. I'm also not sure that "charting" anywhere at 149 is really anything of note...Praxidicae (talk) 17:39, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

- In fact the only sources that say she is a "Billboard hit artist" are this press release from two weeks ago (and she definitely hasn't appeared in the last month let alone year) and her spotify, taken from iMDb which doesn't even identify what song supposedly charted.

- In fact the only sources that say she is a "Billboard hit artist" are this press release from two weeks ago (and she definitely hasn't appeared in the last month let alone year) and her spotify, taken from iMDb which doesn't even identify what song supposedly charted. I have serious doubts about the veracity of her statements...and while we don't judge notability by followers/likes, her social media accounts give me the impression that she really isn't notable for an EDM artist... Praxidicae (talk) 17:43, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hmm that's problematic if it can't be verified. The longer I look at this article the more needs to be gutted. The two obit sources on the article don't even mention the subject, and so much is non-verifiable. --Kbabej (talk) 17:42, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- You're right if they did chart, she might be notable but they didn't and I can't find any sources to verify it, even through Billboard itself. The fact that there are no reliable sources is highly problematic, they're all interviews and self published stuff alongside press releases. I'm also not sure that "charting" anywhere at 149 is really anything of note...Praxidicae (talk) 17:39, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete — no sufficient coverage in reliable sources to indicate notability. Celestina007 (talk) 18:02, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. The awards all are minor, mostly from minor publications and organizations. The chart claims are not supported by any reliable source and even so mainly are of dubious notability; the one thing that might convince me otherwise is the claim of reaching #6 on the Billboard Dance chart (although I cannot find independent verification of that).
- If kept, this would need to really be cleaned up. The lengthy table of unnotable awards and catalog of unnotable compositions, for example. It really does not deserve anywhere near the level of promotional content that it has. (I'm mindful that AFD is not for cleanup; just noting post-AFD activity in the event it is kept.) TJRC (talk) 18:26, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Unverifiable claims and dubious /minor awards do not add toward notability. If RS can't be found, this article should be deleted. Some of the sources don't even mention the subject (see the two obits). --Kbabej (talk) 18:30, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

I don't think this mod squeaks past WP:GNG. There's only one secondary WP:RS I found at Eurogamer. There's an interview at Gamasutra of the game's developers here, but that doesn't count as a secondary source. Besides that, references are slim at best and the current state of the article is original research. The game was apparently featured in a couple of magazines going by this post, but there is no way to access or translate them as they are in a different language. So while it is potentially notable, in this state there is little chance it will be expanded unless a concerted effort is made to track those down. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 14:28, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

I found PC Zone coverage (and twice) [8] [9], which still counts as 1 source only per WP:GNG. Given the fact I'm unable to find anything more, this can be perfectly preserved and then expanded accordingly at the mods list. Not enough for it's own article. Nothing to merge either, as the article is completely unsourced, and the list has already info about the subject. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 16:20, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

- Revert move back to Miss World 2020 with this article being redirected to the Miss World article. As ApprenticeFan said, this no official announcement made by the Miss World Organization nor it's president/chairperson Julia Morley. If there was an announcement then this would've been moved to 2021 with this being the next edition. Also the nominator uses WP:TOOSOON as one of his reasons for nominating this article; however there is no mention of Upcoming Events on the Too Soon Wikipedia guideline page, thus the Too Soon reasoning is not valid. As for the sources, some are facebook and fan site sources but others are sources from news outlets so the reasoning of "poorly sourced" is only partially valid due to some sources being reliable. - IZ041 (talk) 02:49, 26 July 2020

Per GNG, specifically, a lack of in-depth discussion on him as an individual. Articles cited discuss him as 'so-and-so's' attorney.

- Weak delete. He just doesn't have more than a few factors of my standards for notable attorneys; other than clerking, he hasn't done anything particularly notable for the bench and bar. He is not especially well known by the public; for example, he has 900 fewer followers on Twitter than I do. There are hundreds of thousands of lawyers in California and New York. His only claim to fame is representing famous entertainers and he's gotten some coverage for that. Searching for news articles about him is difficult because there's a member of New York State Assembly and a prominent Capitol staffer who have similar names.

- Comment & Question Firstly, allow me to apologize in advance for potentially speaking out of turn. But given the topic, I felt it was important I quickly speak up. I run marketing for News Break, which is a new function at the company, hence the reason you don't see a lot of news about us. That said, if you take a look at our public rankings, we are currently the #1 ranked News app on Google Play and the #3 ranked News app on App Store, just behind Reddit and Twitter - positions we've held (give or take a position or two) for months. This is part of the reason why Harry Shum joined our company as Chairman of the Board: https://medium.com/syncedreview/former-microsoft-ai-head-harry-shum-joins-intelligent-local-news-startup-news-break-as-chairman-32076d35c1f9. Does this added information make us notable enough to retain our page? If not, is there other information I can help provide? Thanks! TheVede (talk) 02:18, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect the subject fails to qualify general notability guideline, as this post purposely discuss Jerry Yang. The TechCrunch article is not enough to determine notability per WP:NSOFT. Since the sources significantly discuss its founder, therefore, it be redirected to Jerry Yang. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 03:57, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Original research, no evidence of research citing the relationship, no scientific credibility.
There is not a single entry for "Garrett relation" in Google Scholar that corresponds to the subject of this article: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=%22garrett+relation%22&btnG=
Most results on Google are either:
- This Wikipedia page
- This PDF, which *specifically claims* to be the author of this article and the person who coined the term "Garrett relation": http://www.cabrillo.edu/~rnolthenius/Apowers/A7-K43-Garrett.pdf
- People reporting this Wikipedia page or the PDF itself.
Page 15: “I’ve written a Wikipedia article introducing the term and the concepts, with some later wording refinements from Tim Garrett.”
All in all it seems that only two persons were involved in the making of this article: Tim Garrett (the person after which the concept is coined) and Richard Nolthenius. They are respectively a researcher in atmospheric clouds, and a researcher in astrophysics. They therefore lack domain-specific scientific credibility to make claims on economics.
We should thus delete this page for the following reasons: WP:NOR and WP:UNDUE.
Seirl (talk) 13:29, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
I did a tally of the references cited in the article:
- 7 references are from articles from Garrett himself (refs 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 16)
- 2 references are from Nolthenius, the first contributor of this WP page (7, 10)
- AFAICT, none of the other references talk about the Garrett relationship, they are just used to cite claims made by the article itself
I'd argue that it's clearly self promotion at that point, and should also be removed for WP:PROMOTION.

The subject, a music manager and businessman, does not appear to be independently notable.

There are lots of people who have a lot of actual impact, but it is very hard to verrify this. Articles only follow verrifiability.

Non-notable band. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 13:13, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
Crust punk band. I don't think they are notable enough to be included here, despite being signed to notable labels and their members playing in other bands. The reason I think they are not notable is because of the sources. Not just in the article, but in general. I did a Google search and I did not find much reliable sources. Sputnikmusic may be reliable, but the band biography is way too short and it says "(from Wikipedia)" so they copy the biography from WP. Vice is a reliable source, but there's just a short blurb about the band's return and some pictures from their concert. I don't think that indicates any notability. But these are the best sources of the bunch, as the rest of the results are the standard, worthless stuff like databases, social media pages, streaming service entries, youtube videos, download sites, trivial mentions/name checks, blogs and stuff where the words are separated. There is also a notability tag since 2018. So I think this is another non-notable band. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 13:09, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

All right I checked the other Academic papers proposed for deletion, and I see they are never cited, referenced absolutely nowghere, have no publisher, have not even a website...? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Deletion_sorting/Academic_journals Compared to that, I believe there are several sources that explain the reach of the article. Checking its publications will show you they are indeed read, maybe it's not the BMJ, but it is certainly significative. Checking the list of authors will show you these are actual scholars that do publish in other journals, not a scam. SAGE is publisher since the inception. I really wonder why is this article proposed for deletion, and as I know there are heavy bias against anything that related to substance use and the problematics that go with it, within the Wikipedia moderators community, I would like to raise the issue here. Should this article be deleted, I would assume that many other academic journals, with much less information, should also be deleted – which might bot be the best way forwards for content on wikipedia. Do academic journal need a publication on the first page of New York Times to be eligible? Do only ultra-high ranking journals are entitled to be present on wikipedia? So Imight have misread this sentence "High quality research can be published in low-circulation journals, just as poor research may be published in widely read journals." on the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(academic_journals) – and other content of the kind that does allow for DSPL to be listed on wikipedia. Opposition is likely just the usual moralist bias moderators have used us to. You can publish any shit about anything on wikipedia, nobody checked it. But you publish a highly relevant information piece, does it mention "drugs" at some point? It'll be flagged for deletion. Only the most prevalent, impossible to delete pages stay (like "cannabis" but not the most useful, most informative, less mainstream pages that, however, do bring valuable balancing knowledge to the encyclopedia. Please consider bypassing the bias and allowing all valuable research to be equally treated under wikipedia rules. --Teluobir (talk) 12:02, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
"Most of the current article is irrelevant fluff" If we're on the diplomatic side of addressing others' work, let's say in return that most of the analysis by Randykitty is irrelevant moralist bias.

I did check the archive and saw indeed that all the article that have beed deleted were by far way less accurate, fulfilling the criteria, and providing complete external references, than Drug Science Policy and Law. I have added references accordingly and have also noted that WP:NJournals "provides guidance, not rules; exceptions may well exist", "Most journals nowadays have home pages which may be used as sources for uncontroversial information. If the journal can be considered a reliable source, this will be often be sufficient to create a stub on a particular journal. However, this does not exempt the journal from meeting notability requirements", "While the notability of a journal is often correlated to the quality or importance of its scholarship, they are not synonymous. High quality research can be published in low-circulation journals, just as poor research may be published in widely read journals" and "Wikipedia editors have been known to reject nominations for deletion that have been inadequately researched". Where is the research justifying deletion?
Fulfils Criterion 1: The journal is considered by reliable sources to be influential in its subject area. Fulfils Criterion 2: The journal is frequently cited by other reliable sources. Fulfils Criterion 3: The journal is historically important in its subject area. What do we need more? Should a journal created in 2013 reach the same level of coverage than an academic journal with a century of existence? Please advise as what are the actual reasons for proposing deletion, if there are actual reasons other than morals.
Being listed in selective databases is "the most typical way of satisfying C1". It is never mentioned that it is a mandatory requirement whatsoever. Similarly, "having an impact factor assigned by Journal Citation Reports usually qualifies". Nowhere it is mentioned that the citation index is a mandatory element to be listed. Or else I would fear that wikipedia soon becomes slightly less useful, or in a conflict of interest with Clarivate Analytics if it only lists the journals present in the "Journal Citation Reports" and no others. The "Journal Citation Reports" is a journal citation report, not an encyclopedia. I thought Wikipedia was an encyclopedia, not a journal citation report. --Teluobir (talk) 12:59, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
I have been commenting the issue all along, nothing personal, don't worry! :-) I would just really be happy if you could quote me the parts of the article that you consider "irrelevant fluff" so we could assess their relevance together. Not sure the use of "irrelevant fluff" to qualify an academic journal helps strengthen your argument that there was no moralist bias involved... Best, Teluobir (talk) 13:22, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Merge to DrugScience as an alternative to deletion. It may one day become notable, as it has a perfectly acceptable editorial board and an okay publisher. It probably isn't just yet notable enough as a stand alone journal but it is part of the parent organisation which is notable. We aren't asking it to be the BMJ, but full indexing would be the norm. I don't think anyone is accusing it of being a scam and I fully agree on the poor coverage of certain drug related topics. It is likely to be a reliable source independently of notability. PainProf (talk) 00:20, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
Merging seems a fair enough option to me. Makes total sense in regard of PainProf's insights. --Teluobir (talk) 09:10, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Randykitty: This is not a bureaucracy, I'm sure we can speedily merge this and avoid wasting the time of other editors as non-controversial as a publication of a notable organisation with your agreement. PainProf (talk) 15:28, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete An encyclopedia is not a list of journals. . Not only is the journal almost unindexed, but its list of "Most cited articles published in this journal in the last 3 years." contains 1 article with 2 cites and 2 articles with 1 cite each. I'm very inclusive about journals, more so than Randykitty but this is below the level of an encyclopedia, and the many indexing services in the world seem to have concluded it's below their level also.)

- Redirect to DrugScience, where it is already mentioned. I don't think we need to save any of the content here by merging, but the journal title is a plausible search term. XOR'easter (talk) 00:43, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - I will go with WP:INDISCRIMINATE for this list article, but others can argue about whether equivalent categories are valid. I will point out a logical error too: for solo artists there is going to be a problem with the difference between their birthplaces and the locations where they actually launched their careers. That's already a problem in this list for Kanye West, who was born in Atlanta, but was raised in Chicago and launched his career from that city's music scene. So the guy is "from" the Southern United States, but he's a Chicago-based musician. Would he then also qualify for whatever "List of Musicians from the _____ United States" that includes Illinois? That's the kind of gray area that will make this type of list article less and less informative as it grows. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 02:34, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

However, doing a Google Scholar search of his name and looking only at the earth science publications among the results (because he has a common name and there is at least one other well-cited James M.

- Completely overhaul This is a mass unsourced list, with many being incidental and tenuous: childhood migrants, Wales internationals who were nowhere near being close to an England cap to "transfer". One that sticks out to me is Youri Djorkaeff who merely had foreign ancestry (his dad also played for France). This page can be overhauled as something in concrete terms such as those who had youth caps for one country and senior for another, or the very few players who played senior football for more than one country, something with a degree of mainstream coverage. [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] That last option would be concise enough to mention the reasons for each one, which come in widely distinct groups: "Oriundo" South Americans (Luis Monti, José Altafini, Thiago Motta...), Eastern bloc players who found themselves in new countries, and more contemporary players who earned friendly caps and changed their minds (Diego Costa, Wilfried Zaha, Declan Rice etc). I'm pretty sure that regarding the lists of footballers already on this website, this one would also have similar encyclopedic merit. 2A00:23C5:E187:5F00:E147:4BF7:78A4:E259 (talk) 20:49, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Renominating, believing standards of Wikipedia (and me) have improved since 2007. This is a fairly typical example of a political candidate who has never held office and activist who has not attained any position or status of note. I understand there's a clear consensus to delete (or merge) political candidates who's only substantial coverage is of their unsuccessful campaign (even if they technically meet WP:GNG). Outside such campaign coverage, the best story is sourced to BC Catholic via BC Christian News, which is not an independent reliable source, but is promoting one of their own. I don't think we should give an article to everybody who's church wrote about their "coming to Jesus" moment in great detail. I do understand the GNG argument for keeping this, but that sets a very broad precedent for unsuccessful political candidates, as most candidates get some decent coverage.

- Delete. I !voted keep at the last AFD (under my previous username of Sarcasticidealist), but my views have evolved. This is, at best, a marginally notable individual, and is exactly the sort of abuse-magnet BLP we need less of around here. Steve Smith (talk) 16:35, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Good point about abuse-magnet. The creator of the article had a clear bias against the subject, as you can see in the early edits, on the talk page, and the first afd comments by them. The creator's version of the article actually had a large amount biographical detail (more than current version) that was almost entirely unsourced. That's a reason I support outright deletion, not a merge/redirect in this case (unlike other candidate articles, where we merge to the last election for office). Once you get rid of the attacks and the self-promotion, there's actually little left. --Rob (talk) 21:35, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete does not pass WP:NPOL as an unsuccessful candidate and does not pass WP:BASIC, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 21:39, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Our notability standards for politicians have evolved significantly since 2007, so the rationale under which an article may have been kept in 2007 has no bearing on whether it's still appropriate in 2020 or not. As it stands, this article is referenced 60 per cent to primary sources (raw tables of election results, the self-published websites of directly affiliated organizations, etc.) that aren't support for notability at all, and 40 per cent to routine local campaign coverage of the type that every candidate in every election can always show — so nothing here establishes that he has any claim to being appreciably more notable than the norm for unsuccessful candidates for office, which is the bar that unsuccessful candidates have to clear to merit Wikipedia articles. And he's not nearly high-profile enough to adequately control the very legitimate "abuse magnet" problems noted above, either: just because we may not like a person's actions or statements is not a legitimate reason to malign them in Wikipedia's editorial voice as some past editors of this article have attempted to do.

Keep orRedirectThe article is fine and meets WP:GNG.

Abishe (talk) 14:11, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Abishe: I can understand the reason for redirect, but can you explain "keep"? according to which policy? As you already know that the film is yet to release and GNG doesn't apply in such cases. GSS 💬 14:17, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
@GSS: I am aware of the fact that the article has some issues with meeting notability guidelines and it is unable to cite more sources to verify the release and production of the film. I saw some sources like Newsminute and The Hansindia which included that LockUp is confirmed to be released via the Zee5 platform alongside few upcoming films like Danny. So it implies that the production and post production of the film have been fully completed (which can be evident with the poster released by ZEE5). So in case if it still looks weird then I prefer to keep as a redirect target to Zee5. Abishe (talk) 14:34, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Abishe: As I said above, the last paragraph of NFF state "
Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines.

- Comment: Unreleased films can be notable as long as there's sufficient coverage to pass WP:NFF, particularly if they have completed or started filming. The odds of this not releasing in some format is slim, given the amount of money and publicity sunk into the movie. As others have said, Disney is likely just waiting for theaters to reopen. If they were to never re-open, they'd probably just release it in some other format, probably as a VOD rental or to their streaming service. I'm going to go ahead and snow close this one.

Comment Hello to all
I did indeed create the page. The TV series was produced by major terrestrial TV companies (TVO Canada, Tiji, PMMP, ITV Studios) and aired worldwide on terrestrial TV would suggest that it is notable, and merits an article. I'd like to suggest that the important thing at that point is 'can we make the article is balanced, fair and unbiased' rather than who created it. I feel that User:Viewmont Viking made the article balanced, fair and unbiased.
Here is what I wrote to User:Dom Kaos... "Whatever the rights and wrongs of the creation of the page, the fact (is) that there are literally millions of (now grown up) kids who saw this in the noughties who are potentially interested. Please do take the time to have a look on YouTube for the hundreds of videos of kids watching Boowa and Kwala."
I would love to make a playlist to illustrate, but because this is content for kids, that is not possible on YouTube.
Here are some examples (sorry for the links). This s just a few of a very many... and (as the co-creator) I find this just lovely. Whether you know the characters or not, this was very popular and appreciated content for kids. It would be a pity to exclude it from Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tW3BmKeIVtY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZ9xuqELxag https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfeuoXIazGU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzeZe0TWk0Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Zx2jjFHHKI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99fGDeWirY0&t=1s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6YyA1yiYsk& https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDjX6gBgVls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvkSCHBHNRk

Hoping this makes a difference. If not, then I'll just count this as a sad day :)

Comment Just to pop in as a Canadian with kids who watched the show and drove the theme song into my head, I'd consider it notable. It certainly was in my house, but I remember chatting about it with other parents at the school.
Not sure if that's the notable enough in this scenario, but thought I'd add my 2-bits.

- That is not evidence of notability. Can you find reliable sources about the TV series? Note that the links provided by the page creator are all links to YouTube, Amazon, or other non-viable sources. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:12, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - The article has no references and that has been the case since it was created. My own search for independent reliable sources covering this turns up nothing. This doe not meet the inclusion criteria for an article on Wikipedia. The above keep argument makes no policy grounded arguments for keeping. -- Whpq (talk) 13:39, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

- Keep - Probably most sources for a race from 2001 would be offline. Also I would question the relevance of applying WP:SPORTSEVENT to motor races since although the link is "event", the description refers to "games". I was able to find a couple of sources writing about this race, one written just this year, [27], [28]. I unfortunately don't have time to add much to this article myself however. A7V2 (talk) 23:59, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete/merge Per nom. Also this article has existed for a 1/2 year, and the race was 19 years ago and the text is just a statement that it existed. No sources to make a real article out of it. Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 20:00, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

This article is currently dependent on four different dead links. A search for active sources on this poet reveals only his own social media and other self-promotions, plus some basic retail or publication listings. He has appeared briefly in robust sources a few times but is only listed as being present at events (e.g. [29]) or listed as one member among many of his literary scene (e.g. [30]). He has no significant and reliable coverage as a poet in his own right, and this article may be an attempted promotion. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 00:47, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Another spot on a railroad mistaken as a community in GNIS. Durham calls it a locality on the Sacramento Northern Railroad. It was a rail spur built primarily to load pears from the surrounding orchards[[31]]. No evidence that it has ever been a community and is obscure even for rail facility standards.

Imprint of HarperCollins Publishers that seems to lack sufficient notability on it's own. The only source in the article is about it acquiring another company which is extremely trivial. Nothing else in the article is sourced and I was unable to find anything about it that would pass WP:NCORP in a search. As an alternative to deletion it might be worth merging it to HarperCollins Publishers. Since it has a section on imprints that doesn't currently mention it. As it is though, I don't see a reason to have a separate article for this. Adamant1 (talk) 00:03, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
