Venture capital company doesn't seem to meet WP:NCORP - coverage is largely WP:ROUTINE announcements for a company in this industry. MrsSnoozyTurtle 22:55, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - per WP:NCORP - the article is based on trivial coverage and mostly low-quality sources (e.g. TechCrunch, PEHub, Xconomy, www.bizjournals.com) in addition to the company website, because the reports are about the hiring [...] or departure of personnel, mergers, and capital transaction[s], such as raised capital. An online search finds similar (e.g. 2007 NYT brief coverage of a funding announcement; 2021 Forbes funding announcement, interview with "the firm’s sole managing partner", mention of a non-notable award; 2021 Bloomberg interview with "Chairman & Managing Director"; various press releases, e.g. 2022, 2021; a 2022 WSJ report on an announced capital transaction; and a brief 2016 Boston Globe report about a capital transaction, past transactions, and past employment of Charlie Baker and related local controversy. I cannot access the full version of this 2021 StatNews source, which is about the hiring of personnel, but seems to include at least some depth about the company. There seem to be a lot of low-quality sites churning announcements/PR, but there do not appear to be multiple sources with WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND to support notability.

Currently sourced by mostly primary and unreliable sources. Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage to pass WP:GNG. Onel5969 TT me 14:27, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's not proposed. It's well under construction. You can even see it in the airphoto on Google Maps. Heck, if they don't finish it for some reason, an abandoned 60,000 seat stadium would also be notable - when's the last time that happened? Besides - it meets GNG with these sources. In what way do you think they are questionable User:GiantSnowman? There's more sources ... I thought three was enough. Nfitz (talk) 05:46, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Construction finally started in 2013, however by 2022, the stadium is still not completed, with the head of Ministry of Youth and Sports and Iraqi Football Association president Adnan Dirjal saying that the stadium construction is on hold as they are waiting for more money to complete it as it requires a lot of money". GiantSnowman 18:14, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I see you are finding significant coverage too! No, the stadium isn't finished yet - but it's well underway! The question here is the notability - not the construction status. Even proposed projects can be notable, let alone those under construction! Nfitz (talk) 16:54, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Distinguishing the phases of the subject's career: (1) As a working BBC journalist he reported on various stories of the day, but notability is not inherited, nor is one report's nomination for an award notable in itself; (2) As a Bell Pottinger Asia executive, there is no clear notability; (3) His involvement in buyout/rebrand of Klareco Communications does not appear distinctly notable; (4) Nor does he appear specifically notable as an occasional media guest commentator on business events.

Coverage seems to be limited to what's on the page. The artist appears to be a rising star so perhaps it's just premature, but I don't think there's a GNG or NBAND pass here just yet.
And frankly, I admit I just want this page deleted so I can stop getting notifications for it after I made it as a redirect last year (not that this is a good reason or part of my actual argument for deletion, but I'm annoyed so I'm saying it anyway). For some reason I don't seem to have any ability to get rid of those and I'm tired of 'em. QuietHere (talk) 13:42, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And don't let me forget to mention that there was just a PROD on the page which was removed by the article creator noting the complete lack of sources at the time. QuietHere (talk) 13:44, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You might be getting all those notifications simply because you are "watching" the page. That option is selected automatically when someone creates a page, which probably happened to you as the creator of the old redirect. You may see the "unwatch" option in the tabs at the top of the current article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:03, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, not watching it. Or at least I wasn't before starting this AfD. I'm well familiar with the watchlist and curate mine strictly, and for me that involves unwatching all redirects I make. To be clear, when I say "notifications" I mean the alerts under the bell at the top of the page as well as the notices menu next to it. e.g. My most recent alert is for a PROD notice from a bot for this article which should've gone to the initial contributor instead. QuietHere (talk) 14:12, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep - It is possibly WP:TOOSOON, but the article can be expanded beyond its current state. The article already has two reliable sources from Kerrang and Alternative Press. He has another Alternative Press story here: [1]; and a few other appearances in Kerrang, including this album review: [2]. And here's a big feature article from another reliable source: [3]. I won't argue too much, but this may be a case of a deficient article that makes the subject look less notable than he is, and it could be improved rather than deleted. (However, I am unimpressed by how he YELLS HIS NAME...) ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:25, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I seem to remember there was a previous version of this article with his name spelled as "Noahfinnce" and I'm pretty sure it should be moved back to that if it is kept given it doesn't appear to be an acronym. QuietHere (talk) 14:29, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, all of the reliable sources use the YELL spelling so it's his fault. The recent trend of all-caps names for Gen-Z musicians really annoys me, but I'm only visiting that planet. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:58, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Withdraw: Doomsdayer has it right. The sources are fine, it's maybe just barely not too soon but I don't see why this isn't keepable at this point. I just want the notifications gone but this is obviously not the venue for that and this AfD just looks really silly when most of it is about that.

I'm unconvinced that the subject here meets WP:NPROF, and see little sign of meeting other notability criteria. The citation rate is moderate in what I believe to be a higher citation rate field, and the awards are minor and/or localized. Meanwhile, I am concerned about a possibly deceptive editing pattern: the page has been advanced by SPA Mededbios. While the page log history is a mess (with the logs I can read being confused between various draft and mainspace versions of the page), I recall it being Mededbios, or another contributor with the appearance of WP:COI, who requested deletion of an earlier and mostly identical draft. It appears that this may have been an attempt to divorce the page from its history. Given this history of apparent WP:COI editing and marginal notability, I would like to bring this page to the attention of other editors. Please count my own !vote here as weak delete, with the WP:TNT essay being relevant. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 20:09, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NLIST. This is a non notable intersection, virtually unsourced 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 19:06, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I completely agree with Serge here and I hasten to add that WP:V is a core Wikipedia policy, which all editors must do their best to abide to. Any information or, for that matter, articles that cannot be reliably sourced must be deleted. I can't think of any valid exceptions. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 12:40, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Delete - As with almost every other list you they have made this one fails both WP:SIGCOV and WP:V. And then to turn around and tell people to do the sourcing themselves? It's not only rude it's insulting FishandChipper 🐟🍟 17:16, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm really worried here that when someone does some canvassing, the debate becomes emotional, and there is naturally strong indignation against the side that did the canvassing. We must not let this get in the way of making the right decision. There is little doubt that the singer herself is notable by WP standards, and there's little doubt that she sang this lot, and that it could be verified if anyone can be bothered to go through the truly prodigious amount of searching that would be necessary to find a source for every entry (not prodigious because it's hard to verify any particular song; prodigious because she sang 10,000 of the things). I asked above, what are our criteria for splitting out someone's discography into a list separate to their article. I haven't had a reply. We can't cram all this lot back into the article on Janaki herself. Are we deleting to make a point? Do we want a discography at all? Is it practical, given how much she sang? What is the best way of helping our readers? Elemimele (talk) 19:34, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Elemimele the likely answer is WP:NOTDATABASE. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 20:06, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
One of three things would need to happen. First option would be that someone works on this in draft or user space until the article is in an acceptable state and then afterwards returns the article to mainspace. If that can't happen then a second option would be trimming down this list so that it only contains entries that can be reliably sourced, the downside to that would be that it wouldn't be an exhaustive list any more. The third option is that consensus decides, because of WP:NOT or otherwise, that the topic just is not suitable for inclusion in an encyclopaedia. The artist in question is no doubt notable but that does not necessarily mean that an exhaustive list of their songs is a notable topic itself. Another example of this sort of situation is in sports. Anyone that has heard of Lionel Messi would agree that Messi is notable. This does not mean, however, that List of football matches featuring Lionel Messi would be an appropriate topic, even though such a topic probably could be reliably sourced. Hope that helps. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 21:10, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I'm not sure why I was canvassed to this discussion, but "if someone asks you to provide a source, you're expected to provide a source" is such a basic fundamental of Wikipedia that it doesn't even warrant discussion. ‑ Iridescent 19:47, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm happy to accept deletion per Timtrent's comment about not-database. But I'd point out (again) that the AfD instructions are clear: it is the job of the nominator to check that sourcing does not exist. This is obviously in flat contradiction to the requirement that articles in main-space must have supporting sources. To get round this conflict, I feel there's a case for moving articles and lists that are almost certainly verifiably correct, but which are currently inadequately sourced, into draft-space rather than deleting. But I'm not recommending it in this case because 10,000 songs is too many to list, and I think her story would be better told by concentrating on the highlights.

Hello all ... Some of the facts in this article are incorrect, and when looking at the content of the article, we clearly see that the article promotes a specific personality, without links or sources that fully confirm the facts. There are also suspicions of a conflict of interest, as the one who created the article also created the article on the Arabic Wikipedia with a request that he create the article at the request of the same person. Also, the person who created the article created another account through which he uploaded about 6 pictures of the character mentioned in the article, and all the pictures are in violation of copyright.

John Day, Clatsop County, Oregon[edit]

John Day, Clatsop County, Oregon (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

I've gone back and forth with this in my mind and even slept on it, but I've decided to see what others think. I'm unable to find any substantive online sources about this place (searching is not helped by there being an incorporated John Day elsewhere in Oregon and there being a river of the same name in the area), and there's no entry for this place in the GNIS, which seemingly has entries for all recognized places in the United States. The photo in the article was clearly taken hereabouts, and there is certainly a road sign reading "John Day" there, but neither Google Maps nor the OpenSteetMap labels the place. I just question whether there are sources to justify the article's existence. Deor (talk) 17:15, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I also can't find any particular sources referring this place. The only official Clatsop County materials refer to a park, and obviously the river. Beyond the photo of the sign, it's not really clear that this is a distinct place. Steven Walling • talk 19:52, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Delete I delved into a few sources. Here is a brief mention in a local arts and entertainment weekly that mentions the unincorporated community of Clatsop County John Day. However, that's a brief, uncited mention and doesn't meet WP:GNG. Lewis McArthur's Oregon Geographic Names mentions a "John Day railway station" as a place along the Clatsop County John Day River, but not a town by that name. That book should have the best explanation and research of any source. I heard years ago that the Clatsop County John Day was a small, unincorporated town until the formalization of the Postal Service required only one town in a given state to have a certain name. So it was scrubbed from official documents to avoid confusion. However, I can't find a source for that. This might be the name of the region around the river or the name of a former railway station, but I can't find any evidence that it was ever a bona fide town or community. I would change my vote with better evidence, though.

The subject of the article does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria as a director and writer. Yes there is coverage. But it is in the form of promotional interviews and these do not count towards notability. Coverage from reliable sources such as The Hindu is primarily focused on the subject's second movie and there is not enough independent, in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG for inclusion of this article to the main space at this time. Additionally, the article was created by a blocked sockpuppet who has a history of engaging in undisclosed paid editing and promoting articles. Akevsharma (talk) 09:17, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep For some reason, Akevsharma has something against this article subject and has been trying to block my editing of it every step of the way, including from when it was a draft. While it was originally made in short form by a sockpuppet, I rewrote it from scratch, turning it from this to the current article you see today. Their constant referencing to the original editor and ignoring my work is honestly insulting. As for their claims about the sources, they're just blatantly incorrect. The sources include some quotes from the subject, but are written about how the subject made the films and the inspirations behind doing so. You can see that clearly in the very The Hindu article that was brought up. They are not question and response interview articles as Akevsharma is implying. SilverserenC 17:30, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Should I also note that Akevsharma appears to have purposefully timed this AfD submission in order to interfere with the article going on the Did You Know section? The nomination for it was approved and moved to a prep area yesterday. The article has been out of draft for nearly a week, but they suddenly decide to now file this AfD? SilverserenC 17:34, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • I hold no personal ill towards you or this topic. The creator of this article was confirmed to be a sock ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/SuhailShaji786/Archive#13_January_2023 ) yesterday and I was waiting for the confirmation. Otherwise,this article would have been easily deleted under the G5 criteria earlier. You may want to investigate the history of the account using the link provided. ( https://xtools.wmflabs.org/pages/en.wikipedia.org/Window369 ) Additionally, I would like to note that this article is part of a group of promotional articles created by this sock farm. But that is not the reason for the nomination and this is not the venue for a sockpuppet investigation. I have nothing personal against you or this subject.
    • I understand and appreciate your efforts to improve the article, however, I want to make it clear that I am not taking any of this personally. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Based on my analysis, I believe that the sources used in the article primarily focus on the movies directed by the subject and do not meet the criteria outlined in Wikipedia's WP:GNG. The director in question has only directed two movies so far, and they do not meet the requirements of being a notable director and filmmaker.
    Akevsharma (talk) 01:12, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Whilst I note GNG's words on promotional content - "nor a result of promotional activity or indiscriminate publicity" - the fact is that directors will be found in newspapers more often around the time a film is released than at other times. It's clear that three major newspapers have provided what looks to me to be significant coverage. AfDs are judged on the notability of the subject, and not on the (in this case) questionable origin of the article, and so the extended reiteration of the origin has no place in this AfD, not least since a different and independent wikipedian has rewritten the article from scratch. --Tagishsimon (talk) 20:35, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The writers are very confused. They mix sequencing with microarray testing. They mix personal / consumer (DTC) with medical labs only accessible to other medical facilities (B2B), as well as strictly equipment suppliers. Many are not in business. Some are only available to university researchers with grants, etc. You would almost have to get the customer list of every equipment manufacturer to finish the list.

Sometimes the ISOGG Wiki is better (for DTC only). Sometimes my site : start with the glossary to explore (https://h600.org/). Or start your own. That is how my sites start.

Delete - it is not actually clear what the focus of this article is supposed to be. It's very dated. Unless one of the original authors can explain their aim, it should be recreated with a more meaningful title and greater precision. NeverRainsButPours (talk) 11:01, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - we are not a business directory. As it stands, it looks like a customer-guide, analogous to those tables that appear for "best anti-virus software 2022", with features ticked or crossed so you can choose whether you want a VPN or can supply 5mL of blood. It's also incorrectly named; humans aren't the only things with DNA worth sequencing. And it would be impossible to keep this list accurate and up-to-date without enormous quantities of COI editing.

This article is not encyclopedic. For example: the first phrase does not explain what a cemented carbide drawing die is. I suspect the article is a partial transcript of the only reference mentioned, which is a primary source. The article should be deleted as per wp:primary. Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 03:51, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Wire_drawing#Drawing_dies. No evidence that this particular type of die is sufficiently notable to require its own article. The one reference listed does not appear to be a primary source, but it's also in Chinese, so I'm not completely certain, as my Mandarin is limited to yelling at my cat. PianoDan (talk) 19:46, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    That is probably a good idea. A redirect to Cemented carbide#Other industrial applications may also work. I checked the Google translation of the abstract. The research is about failures and therefore I suspect that at a miminum the section on Precautions is primary material and directly copied from the reference and may constitute copyvio. Maybe the topic warrants a separate article (there are lots of chinese manufacturers announcing the product) but this article is not it, I am afraid.

  • Redirect to Wire_drawing#Drawing_dies. While cemented carbide is cool, drawing dies are cool, and cemented carbide drawing dies are cool, I don't think this really makes it to being a standalone article. There is at least a few paragraphs of usable content here, which could (and should) go somewhere else. It seems to me like the provenance of this article is that somebody slapped it together real quickly so that they could attach the external links (which are all to sellers of cemented carbide drawing dies!) jp×g 00:02, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sonita Lontoh[edit]

Sonita Lontoh (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)

Someone keeps trying to recreate this article after it was previously deleted via AfD for notability and poor and misleading sources. Being an executive does not equal notability. Pasting an updated version of my initial AfD below...

Reason #1: Not notable coverage under WP:NBIO. Some limited coverage of this person but very limited in-depth media coverage. Of the meaningful coverage of Sonita Lontoh, it's almost all from questionable sources like alumni blogs, conference speaker bios, "news sites" that don't appear to have true editorial oversight, and friendly puff pieces. Other coverage of this person is entirely based on information provided by the subject and fails WP:IS. Subject did get coverage in Tatler Indonesia but that's a gossip mag and not a source for quality technology coverage.

None of these articles establish this person as a notable contributor in their field and just include a quick snippet/quote from this person off topic from their professional contributions.


Reason #2: Many details lack verifiability. Many of the details in this article are not verifiable and fail WP:NRV. All the sources seems to be copy-pasting the same biography without any independent reporting or verification.

  • The detail about John Kerry is not cited from any neutral source and doesn't state an official event or date. I cannot find WP:IS source for this.
  • I can't find a single IS verifying that she spoke at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit. There is only a local news program and a PR press release from her own company. Did she speak about? Is there a recording? Anything else that verifies that this actually happened and that it was notable?
  • For the TechWomen role, I cannot find a source for this that not a bio of Lontoh. She was personally recognized by Hillary Clinton for TechWomen??? Where is any WP:IS that can verify that? You would expect at least one IS if Clinton were to give this recognition to her work. The fact that the Tatler source claims this calls the entire source into question.

As a result, this article likely doesn't meet WP:BLP.


Reason #3: Some claims that appear notable at first glance are not that notable:

  • The TechWomen is a program that anyone can sign up to be a mentor for; there's an online application. See note above about committee role.
  • The Asian Hall of Fame award doesn't seem notable as there is not many if any WP:IS coverage on this award. It might just be starting out or something because Google returns mostly PR Newswire press releases.
  • Same is true for the Global Emerging Leader under 40 award. Google doesn't seem to return much of anything for this

  • Delete Looking at the first two blocks of References. They are mostly interviews and profiles. There is a single ref that could be counted as secondary, but it a partial interview and is borderline. A before turns up lots of similar coverage. I think this is the second time the article has been created, which indicates either a coi or a UPE. She is on the MIT’s Notable Women Alumni list, which doesn't mean a lot.

It's pretty well explained above. Sources are all PR pieces, interviews or pieces where she's mentioned in passing. PR pieces are a large part of the Google results I bring up. What's above nicely sums it up. It's a Delete for me. Oaktree b (talk) 04:10, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. This is a pretty messy discussion, with the majority of opinion being very tentative preferences in one direction or the other. Given the split is almost down the middle, the fact there is a legitimate difference of opinion about whether SIGCOV is met, and the fact this has been relisted a wild 4 times just to get to this point, I think this is the most appropriate close.

I used the PROD process and it was reverted, so I am taking this to AFD as the next logical step. My comment was: No reliable independent sources to provide WP:SIGCOV.

It seems to be a routine announcement based on a teaser trailer, being dependent on quotes, and then proceeds to a gameplay-only summary. I don't think it's WP:SIGCOV, whether it's a WP:RS is also debatable. VickKiang (talk) 03:09, 20 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Source assessment table:
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
https://techraptor.net/gaming/reviews/pax-nova-review Yes ~ Per WP:VG/RS TechRaptor is of inconclusive reliability. Yes Full length review ~ Partial
https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/pax-nova-hybrid-4x-hex-strategy-debut Yes Yes Listed as WP:RS ~ It seems to be a preview with some information based on screenshots, which indicate routine coverage. However, there is some analysis and comparisons with other games, so this is IMO debatably WP:SIGCOV ~ Partial
https://www.destructoid.com/pax-nova-looks-like-a-beautiful-combination-of-stellaris-and-alpha-centauri/ Yes No Per WP:VG/RS, "Like other blog sites, some content may be reliable, but only if the author can be established as such". The author also edits in another non-RS site with no staff page or policies, so I see insufficient evidence for subject-matter-expertise ~ Mainly gameplay recount (which is routine), but the author has some informal analysis No
https://www.ilvideogioco.com/2020/04/28/pax-nova-la-nostra-recensione/ Yes ~ Participants in the recent VG/RS discussion had no clear consensus on reliability. Has a basic staff page with unclear indication of subject-matter-expertise, there is also no editorial policies. I would normally consider this as unreliable but given that another participant in the VGRS discussion found some WP:USEBYOTHERS there might be more in Italian, so I'm not writing this off as clearly unreliable but it's IMO a situational source. Yes Full length review. ~ Partial
https://www.wargamer.fr/beyond-the-rift-prochain-dlc-pour-pax-nova/ No This is not a full review but instead an announcement, primarily quotes from Pax Nova 1.3.2 Released And Beyond The Rift DLC Announced!, including non-independent lines such as "We’ve been working on this for quite some time and we’re really excited to finally announce it in more detail and give you a quick rundown of what you can expect." No I could not find staff nor editorial policies (correct me if I'm wrong) in the translated version. No This appears to be a routine announcement instead of a full-length review, though the URL might have been incorrect. Ping me if a full review can be identified. No
https://game-guide.fr/275917-pax-nova-le-chemin-vers-la-victoire/ Yes No Has a basic staff page with no clear subject-matter-expertise. The website's copyright reads the following, © 2011-2021 - Association Clamidra - Wordpress. Wordpress blogs are generally unreliable unless clear editorial process or SME can be demonstrated, which is likely not the case. Yes Detailed preview. No
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{source assess table}}.
  • Delete. I'd remind participants that multiple sources need to meet every criterion of SIGCOV; and at the moment, the most reliable source does not provide content that I consider substantive (rockpapershotgun, unless I'm missing something, didn't even have access to the game) and the others I would question the reliability of.

It has been two years since the rewrite notice has been put on this page and nothing has changed. The page has broken grammar (in some places it is unreadable) and its sources are too general. Some sources turn up no search results, and there's no relevant results relating to the topic (ancient history?) when searching up "Alymayyan". Think this fails WP:GNG.
