Largely unsourced autobiography; no independent sources attest notability in any of the fields where the subject and author claims to have been active. Biruitorul Talk 23:31, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

--G.M.Hiram (talk) 01:16, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This article is extremely well-referenced, there exists a huge amount of material provided for almost every statement in the article.
The artistic notability of the creator in question is debatable, as any artistic act is. It is always hard to say which work of art is good and which isn't.
Yet, the important thing is that the referenced works are in fact authentic.
Whereas, the scientific importance of the author in question can be justified with papers and documents of an official character.
--G.M.Hiram (talk) 01:16, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The deleting procedure is also highly misleading and controversial as such. It is well known in professional scientific circles that when a negative hypothesis is introduced and users are asked to vote, the vast majority of the voters will be the ones harboring negative emotions on the topic.

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

WP:NOTDICTIONARY - this article consists nothing more than a dictionary definition for traffic. Its lack of sources indicate that the topic does not have sufficient notability for a Wikipedia article. I'd propose soft redirecting to Wiktionary. Aasim (talk) 22:55, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment When I created the article, it contained material which was later moved to and expanded at Permanently signed detour route. It's not surprising, then, that the Detour article has still been mostly empty since. It would be odd, though, for this "parent" article not to exist. I contend that since most highway manuals have sections on temporary traffic control related to construction projects/roadworks, there's still a chance that the Detour article could still be expanded some. Mapsax (talk) 23:08, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, wouldn't the solution be to make Detour a parent article to several more specific articles? This has already partially been done with Permanently signed detour route. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 13:40, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I had the same thought, though I think that having different sections on this article rather than whole different articles would be better since it's likely none would have excessive content. For example, railroad shooflies came to mind – see refs at Glossary of North American railway terms § S – whose section would probably have brief content. Other infrastructure could follow suit. Mapsax (talk) 00:55, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral:*Delete or Draftify until fit for mainspace by a WP:HEY wereupon my !vote can be regarded as neutral. It insufficient to CITEBOMB this article but it is necessary to demonstrate a suitable article can be created from those sources. Thankyou. 00:05, 14 December 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Djm-leighpark (talkcontribs)
I'm switching !vote to neutral as some effort has been made to bring the article to a better standard, I'll leave it to others to determine if this is enough. I also note earlier verions were larged and then chomped and those version ought to be considered during the nomination, but I'm not going to delve through historic versions and I leave that to others. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 20:15, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Eviolite: It's good of you to point this out but unfortunately I have not been able to identity revision on target where the copy occurred on permanently signed detour route. If you can indentifiy the revision, in actually the date alone will do, when the paste was made into permanently signed detour route please ping me and I'll sort the attribution templating. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 20:46, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Djm-leighpark: The very first revision of permanently signed detour route was copied from detour, specifically this version, though my main concern was not templates (since Riversense did attribute on the copy) but rather that if the page detour was directly deleted, the page history and attribution would be completely gone. However, that does not look like a likely outcome right now. eviolite (talk) 20:55, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I've added {{copied}} to Talk:Detour, Talk:permanently signed detour route & Talk:Special route which a closer should check for on delete. APologies for not spotting the copy was at the start of permanently signed detour route. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:55, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep I think it's worth giving it a shot for cleanup, but it needs more to make it encyclopedic (i.e. - history of detours, rules about detours around the world, etc.) and if that's not possible, I'd support a deletion once we've given it some time and no progress is made. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 19:01, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, notability is demonstrated by significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources.[1][2][3][4]

  • Keep. While Aasim (the nominator)'s assertion that WP:NOTDICTIONARY is applicable here might have been correct when this article was first nominated for deletion, the content of this article now definitely goes beyond a simple dictionary definition of the subject(s) it discusses. Also, Trainsandotherthings has provided plenty of sources to demonstrate this topic's notability. --Zander251 (talk) 05:14, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, as it is a clearly notable subject, and it has now been expanded sufficiently.Jackattack1597 (talk) 20:49, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Renominating as per the close of Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Icosidigon. There is not significant coverage about the 34-gon. Most of the mentions of it in reliable sources are commenting on the fact that it is constructible. This follows trivially from the constructibility of the 17-gon, and puts the 34-gon in an infinitude of constructible polygons, such as a 68-gon or an 85-gon. This class is notable, but not the 34-gon itself. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, and notability is not inherited. Danstronger (talk) 22:25, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Mathematics-related deletion discussions. Danstronger (talk) 22:38, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Nothing notable about this particular kind of polygon. Minkai(rawr!)(see where I screwed up) 00:53, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Selective merge The remark by MarkH21 in the last round of discussion leads me to think that there's more that can be said about its constructibility than "34 = 17 × 2". I don't think most of the article content is really warranted as it stands (honestly, some of our pages in this area read like Fandom.com had a Polytopes wiki), but this looks more like a "selective merge" candidate to me. I see that way back in 2017 I suggested a section at heptadecagon as a viable target. XOR'easter (talk) 01:00, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • That is, both the White (1913) and Chepmell (1913) sources construct a regular 34-gon by compass and straightedge without constructing a 17-gon and bisecting its angles. (White actually does it in the opposite order, inscribing a 34-gon in a circle and then joining alternate vertices to make a 17-gon.) It's not what I had expected. XOR'easter (talk) 14:36, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Polygon#Naming, because there's nothing new to say, and for consistency with the other recently-redirected polygons. It's constructible, but heptadecagon already says so: Based on the construction of the regular 17-gon, one can readily construct n-gons with n being the product of 17 with 3 or 5 (or both) and any power of 2: a regular 51-gon, 85-gon or 255-gon and any regular n-gon with 2h times as many sides. The details are absolutely trivial (just take the 2π/17 angle from the heptadecagon and bisect it). The fact that an RS could be found stating the trivially obvious does not make the trivially obvious any more notable, I think. Double sharp (talk) 07:38, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I forgot to mention it in my nomination, but I agree with redirect to Polygon#Naming, which was the conclusion for the other recently deleted polygons. Danstronger (talk) 11:36, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect. Although the 1913 paper goes into nontrivial depth about this specific shape, it does not justify any of the content of the article, and so cannot be used for notability of the article as it is. I don't think we would want to have the kind of article that could be sourced by that paper, which would be entirely about the details of a compass and straightedge construction. Also it's a very short paper and it's only one source. —David Eppstein (talk) 08:23, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I mentioned in the last AfD that the existence of the standalone Mathematische Annalen article about the regular 34-gon is quite remarkable. That's one of the top journals in mathematics! The article is not just about the 34-gon being constructible (since that was already known at the time) but is rather about a very simple and novel construction that can be used to construct the regular 17-gon in a simple and novel way. The article accepted into Mathematische Annalen suggests that this was quite significant at the time and contributes towards satisfying WP:GNG.
    However, the points here about not having an entire article about the explicit construction and its possible suitability elsewhere are also convincing. Based on the Mathematische Annalen paper alone, I am neutral about whether to redirect/merge/keep. However, I would not be surprised if there were other serious articles about properties of the 34-gon. Such coverage might change things (I have not yet attempted this search myself, so this has no weight right now).
    @XOR'easter: Sorry for the delay in responding to the other AfD ping!
    MarkH21talk 11:54, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Polygon#Naming, as most of the sources (bar the Mathematische Annalen article) are not specific to the 34-gon or only describe properties that are "trivial". This is then reflected in the content of article, and the structure could conceivably be used for an article on any arbitrary n-gon. I also conducted several searches and was unable to find other sources that would unambiguously satisfy GNG. Nevertheless, I would also support merging some of the construction-related content to heptadecagon, as it is very relevant there and definitely does not generalize to any n-gon.

Black Women Radicals (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I doubt that this organization fits the notability standard for organizations. All of the sources used are either just passing mentions of the organization itself, sources published by the organization itself, or sources that are obviously not applicable to the article itself (like using Wikimedia Commons as a source). The few reliable sources I found also don't seem like the level of coverage needed for a stand-alone article. Sources that I found on Google that weren't in the article either didn't refer to the organization itself (instead using "black women radicals" as a generic term for black women in radical politics) or also didn't consist of significant coverage. The article was also deleted many times prior due to copyright violations and reading like an advertisement.

One more thing of note is that this article was created by Howard University students in the course Black Women and Popular Culture (Fall 2021). There have been many issues with the articles created for this course, and multiple comments to WikiEd have not helped; see the article Ratchet Feminism, which was created for this course, eventually redirected as a content fork, and restored inappropriately (without any consensus or discussion beforehand) by the instructor themselves.

And before anyone comments that this AfD is meant as an erasure of black people or accuses me of erasing minorities, I am not. I am simply stating that the article does not fit notability standards, in my opinion. wizzito | say hello! 21:34, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@WngLdr34: That would be an WP:OTHERSTUFF argument. No one is arguing there isn't a bias against black women on WP. This article was nominated because it lacks sig coverage from RS, a requirement for all articles on WP. --Kbabej (talk) 22:00, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Followers of the organization are also being ageist towards me for my comments, and I've had to lock my social media because of them. See here, for example. This says a lot about the organization and that the course's ambition was to likely "right great wrongs". wizzito | say hello! 02:04, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find any indication of notability. I have searched Google proper, which comes up with a couple of for-sale sites, and three pages of Wikipedia mirrors and irrelevant results. JSTOR, Google News, Google Scholar and Newspapers.com return zilch. I'm afraid this may be a case of WP:NOTMEMORIAL. It certainly seems to fail WP:V.

@Peter39c: I'm not sure what you mean by "You don't even have time to enter some information that someone wants to delete it". And I'm going to point out that I don't "have a desire to be protagonist", I'm simply doing my job as a volunteer to help control what's submitted to Wikipedia. Waddles 🗩 🖉 16:52, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Peter39c: This is the purpose of AfD, articles for discussion - it's about discussing the integrity or credibility of an article. You created an article with no information in it and none that I can see from a search which it could be expanded with (and my focus on wikipedia is very much content creation). Even if there were just one entry, I could not have seen the need to have this article. A better option may have been to create an article on the region that I linked to on Italian wikipedia, by the same name. Bungle (talkcontribs) 20:18, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: As I repeat, this is simply a technical page to collect articles by people with that surname such as Micheal Cesino, an academic. the name of the academic is a pure and simple example of the use of the page, but it was not my intention to insert it or to promote the academic. Woe to put scientists on wikipedia, It's better footballers or unknown cricketers.

Enough discussions that costs energy and time. --Peter39c (talk) 20:29, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Peter39c: There's no such thing as a 'technical page'. A surname list is only for if two or more people with biographical articles on Wikipedia have the same surname. Waddles 🗩 🖉 20:41, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Peter39c You can always remake a page like this if there end up being enough Cesino articles to justify it. Like, for example, a page about that academic. Right now there are zero. -- asilvering (talk) 20:27, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Moving on to Oregon, the very first place I look at consists of a grain elevator standing by the railroad tracks, and nothing else besides an adjacent farm. Searching turns up low levels of hits, largely clickbait but also a fair number referring to a soil series and a grain variety of the same name, and the usual rural name drops due to the post office which once sat here. Not seeing anything indicating a former town, though. I would also note that the bins shown in the picture are not those of the Minor White photo, which still stand by the tracks. Mangoe (talk) 19:35, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete - No legal recognition, no WP:GNG-pass, just some bare mentions. Post offices and schools do not confer legal recognition as schools/post-offices can be opened by anyone anywhere. FOARP (talk) 12:48, 14 December 2021 (UTC) Happy to flip to Keep(ish) based on the new sources. FOARP (talk) 17:02, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Uh, I don't think a post office can be opened by anyone. Certainly not during that time period. You had to get government authority. Towns/wannabe towns would name themselves after the U.S. Postmaster in order to be granted a coveted post office. Certainly there were addresses with an Alicel, Oregon address. It has legal recognition, but I don't know if it was a "populated place" or just an "area" that a post office served (and thereby failing GEOLAND). 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 14:18, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think the issue we're highlighting here is that post-offices weren't automatically associated with populated place, but could be at stores, stations, and so-forth. Having a post office is therefore not legal recognition of a populated place per se. FOARP (talk) 14:56, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There are perhaps minor quibbles/clarifications/exceptions, but I think we're mostly on the same page. This concerted effort on GEOLAND has deleted a few things here and there I disagree with, but has largely cleaned up a lot of WP:V violations and other such errors. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:31, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Keep - Surprisingly, buildings scattered to the East are the remnants of an honest-to-goodness street grid that appeared on the 1906 topo and gradually disappears by the 1960s. Newspaper searches bring back quite a few trivial mentions of school sports teams, "John Smith of Alicel", etc. I'm thinking this was an actual small town, but not one that was legally recognized or written about enough to sustain a standalone article. –dlthewave 00:05, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Only slightly snarky comment as article creator: Re: "...grain elevator standing by the railroad tracks..." Oh, I see you are familiar with the American West. This was my 4th article and was created from this list. I think the Oregon list was added to from an Oregon Highway map. No one has added to it since 2006. I haven't been around much lately but is WP: GAZETTEER still relevant? Because I'm curious about the "I saw the name on a map and want to know more about it" factor. It's on roadmaps as of my 2008 Oregon road atlas, which is the most recent one I have at hand. Also, I realize that the term "populated place" per GNIS is being questioned, but this is listed as a populated place on GNIS. As an aside, I'm not sure why it matters that the recent photo and the reference to the Minor White photo not being of the same grain elevators is significant to the notability of this community. Here's a link to the photo. And here's the facility in 2005. Perhaps we need to either delete the photo or add a clunky disclaimer? If @Finetooth: is around, maybe we can ask him why he took a photo of the grain storage bins and not the historic silos. SOFIXIT? Valfontis (talk) 06:28, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Valfontis. As you allude to, GNIS is no longer taken as reliable evidence of a place being populated, or of it having legal recognition. This therefore isn't a WP:GEOLAND#1 pass simply because its mentioned in GNIS. Maps also aren't taken as evidence of notability, so we don't have articles on locations simply because they are on a map. Wikipedia is not a gazetteer per se - we don't host GNIS-style bare gazetteer listings, but instead encyclopaedic articles, because Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia.
Standards have been tightened up after tens of thousands of articles about locations in Iran, Azerbaijan, California, and Turkey had to be deleted/redirect en masse due to issues with them caused by simply transcribing data straight from a gazetteer or gazetteer-like database. An admin was also desysopped as part of one of these cases, and one of the most prolific stub-creators also had the autopatrolled bit taken away.
None of this should be taken as a judgement on your creation of this article, simply an indication that (as in many areas) there's stuff that Wikipedia used to have articles for that it now doesn't. FOARP (talk) 09:15, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply. (Spoiler Alert: I try to stay professional on the wiki but I am going to be taking deletion discussions like this one personally so most of this is going to be boo hoo about my hard work and my feelings. See also WP:USEFUL.) See my !Vote below. Feel free to ask me to take this general chat elsewhere, but since Mangoe has indicated they wish to go through the whole state, I might as well get it out of the way here. Thanks for the background on the Arbitration stuff. Most of the Oregon articles on communities were written from scratch (not plagiarized or data dumped), by people dedicated to building an encyclopedia, using sources, including books. Wikiproject Oregon made a great effort to keep garbagey geography content out of the Oregon-related articles. We had a few drive-by editors who created a dozen or two microstub articles on communities each, but I and others managed to "save" (I kind of hate that term) them from deletion with a few hours of research. Anyway, I stand by my judgment on what makes something notable, despite not keeping up with the current state of geographic notability.
I started on Wikipedia after working on a project that involved addresses from the 1950s. I was jotting down odd little town names I hadn't heard of to look up later, and kept getting hits on this page ("city" loosely defined, obviously) and decided to do something about it. In Oregon we also have road signs for historic places that one might want to be able to find some information about. Globe and Austa come to mind. So I feel like Alicel, for example, is not a completely garbage article because there are many current (mostly about the grain shipping there but it's all behind a paywall) articles and historic references to it. (In that rural county, that grain shipping complex is a Big Deal and probably a big part of the county's economy). Speaking personally and as someone who is too tired to go read all the WP:WHATEVER essays, it seems foolish to delete articles like Alicel. I think I'm pretty middle of the road between deletionist and inclusionist. I wasn't heartbroken about this highway junction I created (there was an effort to get the redlinks out of highway articles since it was an effort to convince other editors that they shouldn't be links at all) and I was instigator of the takedown of this funny little place.
Upmerge to the county article if you must, but since not everyone owns a copy of the 3-inch-thick Oregon Geographic Names (Oregon has a lot of place names), it might be nice to have well-sourced histories of various small communities accessible on the Internet, even if they are short. I'm trying to think of a non-petulant, reasonable way to say that depending on how this goes, I could be disappointed enough in the process to finally take my toys and go home, but it's not coming to me at the moment. Valfontis (talk) 11:19, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per my recent expansion with cites, WP:GEOLAND, and 78.26. There are multiple citations to reliable sources. It was small, and now is smaller, but this was and is a community, and Notability is not temporary. It exists and people call it their home. I don't believe "legally recognized" (define this--does that mean "incorporated"?) is a criterion for notability of a(n) (unincorporated)community, but feel free to show me where to find the relevant guideline. (If you are interested in multiple passing mentions of people being "from," "born," living at, and moving to Alicel, you may see my most recent clips as of today. [I realize these are trivial mentions.]) I feel as if WP:BEFORE was not applied here. Valfontis (talk) 11:19, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • More comment - I am somewhat aghast that something as fundamental as WP:5P was allowed to be changed so significantly with only local consensus with participation by only four editors, and the implications it has for precisely these types of discussions. 3 weeks. 4 editors. One of our core pages, with concepts that had been in place for 13 years. Was this discussion widely publicized? 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:10, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
78.26 - It was discussed also at WP:NGEO where there was a similar consensus to change. It was also much more discussed than the original undiscussed BOLD edit that put the term "gazetteer" into WP:5P simply because "I think [this] reflects the reality of WP today". Whether or not WP:5P really is all that pivotal is also disputed by the FAQ at the talk page of WP:5P which states that it is not "a policy or guideline, or the source for all policies and guidelines" but "a non-binding description of some of the fundamental principles" (that is, 5P summarises other pages, it does not control them).

Sources includes hard copy books like Oregon Geographic Names (an extremely important sources for articles on Oregon communities and geographic landmarks) and Main Street: Northeastern Oregon published by respected publishers like Binfords & Mort and Oregon Historical Society; sources also include well-established newspapers like the La Grande Observer as well as historic newspapers like Crook County Journal which was an important sources of local information in its day.--Orygun (talk) 21:00, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Because I think this needs more than PROD. Trent University holds her papers, but a 6m archive doesn't indicate (nor does worldcat or google scholar verify) that she was a prolific writer. I had hopes for this obit, but she doesn't seem to have done enough to add up to meet academic notability and it's not enough fo the GNG.

Fails WP:NFILM and WP:NFOE. Lack of detailed reviews in reliable media. The references and the search results are mostly announcements of the upcoming launch and trailers. Venkat TL (talk) 16:12, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails WP:NFILM as Venkat TL said, and also the film (as I understand) hasn't been released or reviewed as yet. Per WP:NFILM, "... 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." Unless someone can show any sign of notability with respect to the production of the film, this seems like it might be WP:TOOSOON. I don't know of the timeline for the release, but it might make sense to move this to draft space, or just to delete and reintroduce once it qualifies as notable.

The two placename sources disagree slightly: one says flat out that it was a post office, the other calls it a "community" which got its name when the post office was established. What the topos show is what is now a vineyard but also had orchards around it earlier. The aerials for a while show two rows of about six small square buildings (which the topos show as one large building) which might have been cabins for workers. Searching is pretty much useless as the bridge nearby (in both its incarnations) throws out tons of hits, but I couldn't get anything other than a lot map which was not particularly illuminating one way or the other. At any rate I don't have evidence for a town, and a post office isn't notable. Mangoe (talk) 05:20, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just one of many unnecessary "Spain relations" pages. Philosophy2 (talk) 03:51, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • The basis of every AfD discussion is a common understanding of why the nominator thinks the article should be deleted. If we can't understand why the nominator wants the article deleted, then keep !votes can't properly argue against deletion if the nomination is a moving, ill-defined target (and delete !votes have to come up with their own deletion rationales). Procedurally, this should be a speedy keep, and so far nobody has argued that "unnecessary" is a valid deletion rationale, so I stand by my !vote. No prejudice against renominating with a proper deletion rationale. Pilaz (talk) 10:13, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral.Delete. While I agree that the nom could have given a better rationale, the fact remains that the article cites no independent, reliable sources. I could not find any either.

  • Comment: multiple reputable sources exist to satisfy WP:GNG (even if that's not the disputed by the nomination). Spain negotiates and later signs immigration agreement with Guinea [19],[20], [21]; Spain to pay 10M€ to Guinea and Gambia for repatriations of migrants [22]; 2019 High-level visit of the Minister of Interior of Spain to Conakry to reinforce cooperation against human trafficking, organized crime, and on immigration flows [23]; in 2020, Spain triples subventions to Guinea Conakry and other African countries to combat irregular migration, with increased funds going to the Guinean police [24]; 2021 visit of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs (Spain) to Guinea [25]; Spain condemns the 2021 coup in Guinea, calls on military to stand down [26], [27]. Both countries have embassies with one another and Guinea leaders have also visited Spain in the past, such as the visit of the Guinean PM to Spain in 1982 and 1984 [28], [29]. All these sources speak to the enduring, notable relations between these two countries. Pilaz (talk) 11:24, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per GNG (disclaimer: article creator). There's sufficient secondary coverage and the nomination is not even an assessment of sourcing or lack thereof. Sure, currently the article uses mostly (Wikipedia-appropriate) Eater Portland sources, but there are others to incorporate such as Google Books (example, example) and other publications: The Oregonian, Portland Mercury, Willamette Week, etc. Also, the restaurant is listed in quite a few "best of" lists, readers' polls, etc, which means there's enough coverage to flesh out the buildings blocks of a good restaurant article: Description, History, and Reception. I've promoted ~30 articles about Portland area restaurants to Good article status, so I'd like to think I have a decent understanding of sourcing requirements for restaurants. I think the article should be kept and expanded, not deleted. ---Another Believer (Talk) 13:12, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Sufficient coverage between Eater Portland, Willamette Week, the Sellwood Bee, all of which are currently used in the article. There's also (original, not reposted) Newsbreak coverage here; Oregon Live coverage here; Portland Food and Drink coverage here; Portland Mercury coverage here; and the books Another Believer listed above. Given Another Believer's track record on creating GAs for restaurants, I wouldn't be surprised to see this as a GA soon after it's been expanded. --Kbabej (talk) 16:33, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • I see a dozen or so Oregonian articles which cover the restaurant, ranging from opening announcements to list inclusions ("cheap eats", best burgers, etc), and that's not even counting a dive into the online archives via library card. Seems a bit dismissive to throw the local/PR argument at the largest newspaper in Oregon and the second largest in the Pacific Northwest by circulation. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:01, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • There's nothing here satisfying the WP:AUD part of WP:NORG. Opening announcements and list inclusions are clearly routine per WP:NORG. This is going to be kept because of the consensus, but the consensus so far has completely misapplied our guidelines - there's lots of references but I can't find one that passes our requirements for organisations. Many of them are inclusions on lists: NORG specifically says inclusion in lists of similar organizations, particularly in "best of", "top 100", "fastest growing" or similar lists is trivial coverage. Many of them are short press release type blurbs. This is just a local restaurant in a city where local restaurants get local coverage, and there's nothing I've found that suggests otherwise. Are there any feature articles on this? Has any press from outside Portland covered the restaurant significantly? SportingFlyer T·C 12:36, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • You're implying none of the sources are appropriate, when that's not the case, and mentioning sources like portlandfoodanddrink.com is not helpful because the source is not used in the article and I'd never use on Wikipedia. I logged into the Oregonian archives and there are ~20 additional sources to review. I'll see if I can expand the article further soon. ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:16, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: 31 references from 6 different sources. In my opinion, three references from two different sources already suffices as notable, so a deletion is unwarranted. The two delete votes I think are wrong in that a) not all the sources are travel guides and b) I've checked all the sources, and they all seem fine. I'm sure this article could use some expansion, but as a C-class article it's not bad. GeraldWL 03:55, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

"This is a list of notable fictional institutions". Notable how? The majority of the entries here do not have stand-alone articles. ALL entries are unreferenced (the article sports ZERO footnotes). The division/structure is chaotic and ORish. Political/Governmental grouping includes terrorist and criminal organizations but not "inter-political alliances". It sports both "Other" and "Miscallenous" headings This fails NLIST and GNG; I could not locate any reliable work that tackles this topics (attempts to list important fictional institutions, widely defined). As a navigational aid this is also a failure, since most entries don't even have redirects and many are minor, of little importance to the work they originate from, and are not even mentioned there. For example the long and confusing entry for "Church of the Virgin of Guadalupe" (one of only three churches on the list...) doesn't even link to the fictional work it references (my best guess is George Lopez (TV series) but that article doesn't even mention any church, suggesting it's a very minor location in the setting). I am afraid there is nothing to rescue here. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:25, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • I would say that even those sources are still much more narrowly focused than the topic of this list, and don't really help the fact that this list, as it is presented, is too broad to be useful. For example, the book you link above very specifically is only defining its use of institutions as things such as prisons, hospitals, and asylums, and the Turn Turtle book appears to be specifically about art institutions. This list, on the other hand, is just a massive conglomeration of every possible definition or use that the word "institution" can refer to, and even the sources you bring up don't cover that broad of approach. As mentioned by a couple other already, there is merit in more concrete sub-topics having articles (and I would not be surprised if some of them already exist), but just the overall concept of an "institution" in general is just too broad of an approach to work. Rorshacma (talk) 22:07, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Rorshacma: I have to disagree here in detail: The Turn Turtle book picks a Zoological Institute and the Enfield Tennis Academy as examples, so not specifically art institutions. In Abject Spaces in American Cinema, your three examples come from the introduction. Part I then adds very broadly "institutions that contribute to the development of a coherent adult identity", choosing high school and military boot camp as examples. Fiktionalität picks fictional corporations as examples. All three sources, however, make general statements about fictional institutions. How many different areas do you want covered? I'll grant one thing: The sources do not cover all imaginable types of institutions by name. So see my overall opinion below. Daranios (talk) 15:07, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as this list does not pass WP:LISTN or WP:GNG. Many of the entries are WP:OR, and perhaps even the whole grouping is WP:OR. I do see some merit in the approach that Daranios is suggesting, but even the topic institutions in fiction is so abstract that I can't imagine it as anything other than a disambiguation page to more discrete topics (e.g.: hospitals in fiction and sports leagues in fiction, which are very different topics).

  • Split into definable types of institutions, in the spirit of the previous discussion, all the "too broad" arguments, and WP:AtD. As discussed above, there clearly are secondary sources which do discuss "fictional institutions" as a group, as suggested by WP:LISTN, which I therefore consider fullfilled (and thus WP:GNG). And purpose-wise such a list would make sense to help in navigation, one proper reason for the existence of lists. However I do agree that "instituion" is to vaguely defined to be ultimately helpful here. What is both managable and talked about in secondary sources are "medical institution". So at the least that part should be preserved by splitting it out. I also agree that the list we have now in general and the "medical institution" section contain examples where it is unclear why they are included. This is easily fixed (and AfD is not cleanup!) by limiting to blue links and those where secondary sources can be found. And merging the prisons, another type of fictional institution clearly present in secondary sources, to the existing List of fictional prisons. And if it should be decided that the medical institutions section should be the only one to be preserved, the best way probably would be to trim the rest and rename this list in order to preserve the history (and the other content in case someone wanted to use that in a proper way in the future). Daranios (talk) 15:07, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and convert to list of lists I agree with @Qwaiiplayer:. I suggest moving the notorious entries to more specific lists and turning that general list into a category. As you can see when accessing the articles contained in the list in question, several of them meet the WP:GNG Luidje (talk) 06:41, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Still fails WP:SALAT with the extremely broad scope, and Rorshacma has shown what seem to me reasonable objections to approaching the problem from the angle of sourcing and notability. The fictional gangs' list may just be adequate, but this one is harder to defend. A list of lists will serve as an added burden and redundancy rather than a complement to the category; and there's no need to have two pages listing bluelinks if only one of them is self-maintaining.

List of fictional gangs (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is an indiscriminate, mostly unreferenced list that fails WP:GNG. The structure is an ad-hoc, messy ORish division into crime syndicates, crime families and clans, street gangs, motorcycle gangs, prison gangs, and even paramilitary organizations thrown in for good measure (in other words, the structure of the article is not grounded in any academic typology of gangs and is just amateurish and chaotic fancruft). There are no inclusion criteria, and the list includes numerous gangs that are just mentioned in passing in some works. For example, I am a fan of Shadowrun RPG and I even wrote the wikia entry on Shadowrun gangs - but to my surprise, most major SR gans are not on our list but we have the random entry for https://shadowrun.fandom.com/wiki/Kingston_Machine_Posse , a topic mentioned in passing in a minor game supplement. The argument that this is some sort of navigational aid cannot be taken seriously as the vast majority of gangs mentioned here are not notable, nor do they even redirect to a notable work. The amount of possible hoaxes contained here is hard to assess. While arguably the topic of gangs in fiction may be notable, this list is IMHO not salvageable.

  • Keep The nomination says "that this is some sort of navigational aid cannot be taken seriously as the vast majority of gangs mentioned here are not notable, nor do they even redirect to a notable work". This is no longer the case after the major clean-up, so I think it qualifies as a navigational aid for those interested in the topic. As they are treated elsewhere on Wikipedia, that they are not referenced here is not a major concern, and the primary sources are given anyway. The fact that the formating may not be great is no valid grounds for deletion, because it is something that can be improved. As for the notability, at the very least we have this full PhD thesis dealing with the topic of fictional gangs. Daranios (talk) 15:09, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Make an actual article on the topic then, don’t waste time with this wp:listcruft and vague claims about its “navigational” purpose (which as I’ve said before is basically a synonym for WP:ITSUSEFUL at this point). Lists are nowhere near as useful or informative as an in-depth article; they’re just easy to make and inflate to an impressive size. They should be the exception, not the norm. Dronebogus (talk) 15:49, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @MrsSnoozyTurtle: True, and I did not say otherwise. But if push comes to shove, the Manual of Style as a guideline does take precedence over WP:Listcruft as an essay (though I don't think that that essay would require this list's deletion either). And I wanted to show that the purpose of navigation is not my personal opinion but grounded in the guideline. About the serious question of notability: I have already pointed out the PhD thesis, Clarityfiend has pointed out the online article. Searching a bit more, the book Gangs and Gang Crime has an 8-page chapter about "Gangs in Fiction and Film". With these I consider WP:GNG for the topic of "fictional gangs" fullfilled, and with this also WP:LISTN for our list here. Just to cement this further, there are two books on Google where the subject appears, though I cannot see the extension of the treatment: [36], [37], as well as a number more which talk about specific instances of fictional gangs. As for "Wikipedia has categories for this purpose", another of Wikipedia's guidelines says: "Overlapping categories, lists and navigation templates are not considered duplicative". Daranios (talk) 11:58, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Piotrus: I don't think I do: WP:N says "list topics must be notable". What's the topic of our list here? Fictional gangs! WP:LISTN says "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources,... notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list." Secondary sources discuss the topic or group of "fictional gangs"/"gangs in fiction" (plural), as discussed above. If then the topic gangs in fiction is notable, then a list of such gangs appearing on Wikipedia is covered with regard to notability based on both relevant sections of WP:N. Of course in addition we have to take care that such a list does not become indiscriminate. But the efforts of Dream Focus have led to only having blue links, i.e. limiting our list to fictional gangs covered on Wikipedia either in their own article or as part of the article of "a notable work", as you have put it.

Furthermore, arguing that a category duplicates a list (or vice versa) at a deletion discussion is not a valid reason for deletion and should be avoided."

    Except articles still need to meet GNG. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:59, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Wikipedia:Notability#Why_we_have_these_requirements Because these requirements are based on major content policies, they apply to all articles, not solely articles justified under the general notability criteria. They do not, however, apply to pages whose primary purpose is navigation (e.g. all disambiguation pages and some lists).
    Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone_lists There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") or what other criteria may justify the notability of stand-alone lists, although non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations are touched upon in Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability.
    So two places in the Notability guideline page it says you don't need to meet the GNG if you are a navigational list, which is clearly what this is. Dream Focus 11:40, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    But this is a list of X, not list of X of Y. And lists of X have to meet GNG. Notability guidelines also apply to the creation of stand-alone lists and tables. Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:20, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Basically TNT for this unsourced FANCRUFT magnet. In what world does "Jabba the Hutt’s criminal empire" (no actual article for said "empire") belong with the Baker Street Irregulars in a directory? The practice of wikilinking real organized crime outfits here also muddies the waters further. Most of the bluelinks are in fact redirects to more unsourced content. I could definitely see an article on "Organized crime in fiction" that discusses the cultural portrayals of such with academic sourcing, but for the keepers, do tell, what is really worth saving here? Also rather dubious and reductive to sort street gangs by race without sourcing which discusses the significance of that. Race and its importance for gangs is usually a contextual matter i.e. who gives a shit if the Baker Street Irregulars are "European", they're based in 1800s London. -Indy beetle (talk) 22:13, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Uh, where? A small portion of the article is referenced to sources that do confirm that such and such a work had a criminal organization.

    Agreed. -Indy beetle (talk) 11:35, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Piotrus:: 1- If you think that a part of the article is not covered by enough sources, just remove it. According to WP:RUBBISH: "In the Wiki model, an article which may currently be poorly written, poorly formatted, lack sufficient sources, or not be a comprehensive overview of the subject, can be improved and rewritten to fix its current flaws. That such an article is lacking in certain areas is a relatively minor problem, and such articles can still be of benefit to Wikipedia. In other words, the remedy for such an article is cleanup, not deletion."
    2- And, if you didn't find the exact word in the sources, remember that human communication is formulated through concepts and semantics is much more important than searching for one or another term. Thus, according to WP:RUBBISH: "Some articles have well-written text and references. But the one thing poor about them is the title. There is a simple solution to this: rename it! If you are not able to move the article yourself for one reason or another, request someone else do it rather than nominate the whole article for deletion."
    3- I repeat, the case here is simple: it serves WP:GNG because "it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". Luidje (talk) 22:31, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Navigational since it helps people find articles if they are searching for this. If its a valid category, Category:Fictional gangs, then its valid information to have on a list. Lists offer more information than a category does, so are more useful.
    I have removed plenty of bad entries. Proper editing to fix problems, instead of outright deletion, is always the best choice. Dream Focus 05:52, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Saying it's always the best choice to not delete a list article is a bit of a stretch. Obviously there are cases where deletion is the prefered outcome. No know does any guideline say "keep every list article no matter what." That aside though, it's laughable at best to say this helps as a navigational aid. I clicked on several links a while ago and they went to articles that had nothing to do with the gangs that the link was suppose to be for. How exactly is being sent to a bunch of articles that have nothing to do with the topic of the list navigationally helpful to any one?
Obviously Category:Fictional gangs exists, but WP:CLNT says "each method of organizing information has its own advantages and disadvantages, and is applied for the most part independently of the other methods following the guidelines and standards that have evolved on Wikipedia for each of these systems." The sentence makes it clear that we aren't suppose to recreate categories as lists just for their own sake, without considering the specific guidelines and standards for lists. So just being like "keep because category" isn't really valid on it's own or really at all IMO. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:02, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If there are any bad links left then they can be removed, as I have already done with all the bad entries I saw [39]. Many of these fictional gangs have their own articles, and others are mentioned significantly in the main article for the series, so are valid to be on the list.

  • Strong Delete Who is actually going to read this? I saw the gang from GoldenEye. Who cares about that. I mean really, who cares. It is so byzantine as to be almost obscure, in way that is absolutly useless to the general readership. I can't think of a single scenario where this information will be useful. It is essentially taking a plot point to give setting and then including it in the article. Certainly some of them have a genuine existance and have been spun into news plots and have articles here describing the,. But it is so information poor and shallow, who is going to use it? It is poorest type of cruft that is possible to imagine, useless to 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of the population. Delete per WP:NLIST. scope_creepTalk 12:49, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Scope creep: Aside from that fact that this type of argument is discouraged in deletion discussions, the numbers don't seem to support your opinion: The page gets an average of 117 hits per day according to this page. So it's interesting to some. From what I've read, that's ca. 0.00004 % of Wikipedia's hits, meaning that 99.99996 % look for something else, not your much higher number. If we have 300 Mio. hits per day and about 6 Mio pages, that would mean an average ofabout 50 hits per day per page. So this page is of interest to more persons than the average Wikipedia page. Daranios (talk) 14:24, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Daranios: That may be so, and I'm suprised, but you have not presented any evidence to say why 117 are coming down every day and viewing the page, merely the fact that is happening, and that still confirms my statement, that for vast majority of people, it is useless. I would suggest it is similar to viewing some bizarre sight, off the main path. The article could sit on any fancruft site on the internet, quite happily, without impacting part of Wikipedia. It doesn't change my statement. It still fails WP:NLIST. scope_creepTalk 16:03, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, and the source must be in the exact language "List of fictional gangs" or it should be tossed out. Seriously, Wikipedia is not a battleground or talk show or a courtroom where adversaries spin evidence to favor a narrative, so when totally clarifying common sense reliable sources come to light, with 'delete' arguments proven incorrect (i.e. 117 people view the page daily offsets "nobody reads this") that maybe should be enough sometimes for everyone to say "cool, another page saved" and move on. Randy Kryn (talk) 18:08, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Piotrus: I also find this reading weird. And am wondering if this is the best place or if this should rather be discussed at Wikipedia talk:Notability. But I can't help myself so: WP:LISTN says ". One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources". The "list topic" here is "fictional gangs", not "a list of fictional gangs", otherwise it would need to be called "Lists of fictional gangs". This is made extra clear in the guideline which says "whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs"". So we could just as well call our list here Fictional gangs in accordance with the guideline. Would not change the topic. Your reading would mean that prose sources about fictional gangs would have to be discounted, while listicles, frequently derided in deletion discussions (though not by me), would be the perfect secondary sources to establish notability of lists. That can hardly have been the intention. Also, a major purpose of lists on Wikipedia is navigation. Such a purpose is usually absent for lists existing in secondary sources. Why then should we require discussions in listform from secondary sources before we are allowed to write a list here? And nowhere in the guideline is there any mention of a listform. Daranios (talk) 19:00, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    This article has noting on the notable topic of gangs in fiction. Fancrufty listicles of trivia in place of proper analysis are a childhood diseases of Wikipedia that we need to outgrow the sooner the better. Part of the cure is removing the infected disease like such unsourced ORish lists of trivia, to be replaced with proper prose grounded in reliable sources. Look at any regular encyclopedia - they sport no such lists. Which is why they are seen as serious works. As for the numbers of people visiting the page, it's irrelevant - we don't know how many, if any, find it useful.

  • If you hate certain topics with so much passion (other editors do like them you know) maybe you shouldn't be editing within a mile of any of them. Please consider that, thanks. Anyway, WP:FANCRUFT is an essay, the opinion of some but not all editors, and has nothing to do with reasoning for Wikipedia to delete even one article. It's a false criteria, and knowing this should be in the closer instruction manual tattoo. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:50, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Piotrus: The guideline as it is now does not seem to share your take on this, presumably reflecting majority consensus. Most other encyclopedias are not online and interlinked the way Wikipedia is (or have as many articles), so other encyclopedias have no or less need for lists that help in navigation. Daranios (talk) 09:34, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Which guideline? I believe GNG and LISTN do not support this list. Unless you are arguing for it as a purely navigational aid? If i tis rewritten and links solely to entries from Category:Fictional gangs then we could consider such an argument. Right now it is still 95% "non-notable gangs mentioned in passing in various works, plus some fictional non-gangs criminal or terrorist organizations added for no good reason". WP:TNT applies, although if User:Dream Focus were to finishish the rewrite, we could consider saving this. Otherwise they or you can copy the list to their sandbox and finish the work there (we could even draftify this). Again, if no cleanup is performed, TNT applies (no, this is not a case of AFDNOTCLEANUP, since there's next to nothing useful in the current fancrufty and unreferenced list of trivia, IMHO at least). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:30, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Piotrus: As explained, I believe both WP:GNG and WP:LISTN, due to existing secondary sources on the topic of the list, allow for a List of fictional gangs. So there is not reason on grounds of notability to delete our list here. What remains is the question: Is the current version a reasonable start towards a decent version of such a list, which can be improved through further editing, or is it rather a case of WP:TNT, because it does not contain elements which we would find in a good version of such a list? I've done one part of the legwork and have counted 13 fictional gangs here wich have their own article (or one less if you discount SPECTRE). Not an enormous number, but my personal take would be that a list makes sense with 10+ entries for navigation purposes, and usefullness can be discussed between 5 and 10. We are beyond that arbitrary point. It seems the smaller part of those 13 is in Category:Fictional gangs, meaning the current version already allows for help in navigation the category currently does not provide. Ideally, both should be used to complete the other in future editing, expanding its use in navigation (the category has 15 full articles). Many more entries are discussed within other articles in Wikipedia (for seven of them, the name of the gang and the work it appears in have the same name). I think someone interested in the topic of fictional gangs will want to see those links (which the category cannot generally provide). Entries which do not appear elsewhere on Wikipedia and are not sourced should be removed. So in conclusion, yes, I think this list should be kept for navigation purposes. It does have content which would be included in a "good" list of fictional gangs. It is imperfect, but its flaws can be remove through editing. So it is not a case of WP:TNT.

The result was keep. I took my time to read the coverage presented by Astig and it all helps the article qualify for GNG and WP:NALBUM. It's all coverage related to their new album, and I'm sure there is more out there if folks do their due diligence in Spanish-language resources.

Thanks everyone for participating. Unhappy with this decision? If one wishes to renominate this article with another policy-based rationale, they are able to do so.

  • Comment: This album didn't get enough airplay on the Mexican AC Radio Stations, additionally zero plays for the Spanish AC and CHR stations in the USA. The Reggaeton/Latin Trap takeover are one of the main causes that brought Latin pop hits down the charts in the last few years. And to this day it continues to decline in mainstream popularity. A few artists and bands in Mexico are trying to adapt to the new generation. Take Reik and Julieta Venegas for example. But although the album was successful in Spain and got a fair amount of airplay on Cadena Dial such as "Hacia Adentro" and "Sobreviviendo."

    • But we need some proof that the album was "successful", as you say. Yes, Latin pop has disappeared in the same way that pop in the USA and Europe has been overtaken by R&B and hip hop... in Colombia where I live, stars such as Shakira and Carlos Vives now collaborate with reggaeton stars in order to remain relevant.

Non-notable actor. Has been in films (two have been released, two have been unreleased for 6+ years), music videos, and TV commercials, but none of them are notable, and his roles have attracted no more notice than: "Sadman Samir is playing the central character in the film", "Actor Sadman Samir, ... acted as models in this song", "The central characters in the ad are Sadman Samir and ..." (Google translations from Bengali). Searches of the usual types, in English and Bengali, found nothing in reliable sources deeper than similar press release-driven passing mentions.[59][60][61][62]

Without significant coverage in independent, reliable sources, does not meet GNG. Without significant roles in notable productions (or unique, prolific, or innovative contributions), does not meet WP:NACTOR.

These lists are purely WP:LISTCRUFT and collection of WP:INDISCRIMINATE or trivial lists. Per WP:NOT I don't see any encyclopedic value in these lists and can't find any proper WP:RS preserving such lists.

Contrary to WP:LISTCRUFT which say "In general, a "List of X" stand-alone list article should only be created if X itself is a legitimate encyclopedic topic that already has its own article", we have List of converts to Hinduism from Islam, but no Conversion to Hinduism from Islam. We have List of converts to Islam from Christianity but no Conversion to Islam from Christianity. We also have List of converts to Islam but no Conversion to Islam (a redirect), and we have List of converts to Sikhism but no Conversion to Sikhism.

While it is clear that most of the listed names on these articles had no effect of religion on their career and many of the sources used on these lists are now prohibited by WP:RSPS, another major issue with the maintenance of these lists is that we will never have a proper criterion as the subject of 'conversion' is not unambiguous. Here are the problems that editors including me have faced while maintaining these lists:

  • If the person is alive (WP:BLP) then the entry should comply with WP:BLPCAT but other editors argue that if no sources dispute the information of a said conversion then it should be included.
  • If a person is not alive, then the entry should ensure WP:V is met, but it happens often that one account is contradicted by another account and the said source is not qualified enough to make an assertion about the conversion. Most of the time the source is not explicit about the conversion let alone identifying how the conversion happened.
  • If a person is either alive or dead and the source assessed conversion by judging the traits or works concerning the individual but the information would itself fail WP:UNDUE if presented on the person's main article.

These are some of the few reasons that result in endless edit wars on these pages and no agreement is ever reached and the pages are left in poor shape.

It is also unclear that what really counts as a 'conversion'. Does it mean that a person is supposed to take birth in a religious family or they should adhere to a particular religion before they convert to another religion? Even if either requirement is not fulfilled, there are sources that would speculate something only by judging the surnames or background of the said person. What if people like Cheryl Spector, Noah Wyle, Salman Khan, and others were raised or followed more than 1 faith but a source happens to focus only on 1 of their faiths?

If information about a 'conversion' is necessary then it is best maintained on the individual's own article instead of using these lists that are prone to disruption. Georgethedragonslayer (talk) 04:22, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BEFORE for Wood, Louisiana:

General search

Just directory listings:

https://geotargit.com/index.php?qcountry_code=US&qregion_code=LA&qcity=Wood - Site contains a box that pre-enters Wood, Louisiana into the box. Uses Google Maps embed to plot point on a map. Below the embed are "Webcams near Wood". Below that are two tables which would only be useful for the purposes of being a sort of travel guide - one shows the distances of Wood, Louisiana from nearby cities such as New Orleans and Baton Rouge - the other shows the distances of Wood from the 10 most populated cities in America to use. Rest of the page is unrelated. Not useable as a source to establish notability.

https://www.travelmath.com/cities-near/Wood,+LA - Merely gives information on cities, hotels, airports, etc, etc. near Wood, LA. Purely a travel guide that could not be used to establish notability, per WP:NOTGUIDE, item 2.

False-positives and other nonsense

This WP:BEFORE was complicated by Google also listing Wood in Louisiana, alongside similary named places in the state (like Big Wood, LA). Google also brought up stuff like[69] that doesn't talk about the location, but rather expenses for a "Louisiana Avenue" in the District of Columbia.

There's also this junk removal service page[70] (which would never be used as a source anyway), which isn't ACTUALLY a removal service in the area like it says, just a way to find their services near you area - the map embed doesn't even point to Wood, LA.

If you choose to show the ommitted results, the results detoriate into mostly listings for Wood in Louisiana.

Google News search

The two pages of Google News results were all unrelated to Wood, LA. Most results instead were about Ruston, Louisiana... for some reason.

Google Books search

Various false-positives. This[71] book that shows up only makes mention of - you guessed it - Wood in Louisiana. Nothing to see here.


1[72] 2[73] 3[74] 4[75] 5[76] 6[77].

More false leads, not useable as sources as they only talk about either Wood in Louisiana or something else unrelated that contains the word "Wood".

In fact, the rest of the Google Books results from there are entirely irrelevant to "Wood, Louisiana".

Google Scholar

Nothing related to the town. Similar to the previous results, results were about either Wood in Louisiana or something related. Nothing useable[78].

Search yieleded no usable sources. Delete as failing WP:GNG and probably every other notability guideline. WikiJoeB (talk) 03:03, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
