A list seemingly relying on copying from a Plus/4 World database. IgelRM (talk) 22:09, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

C16 was big in Europe. This is not the same exact list as PD/Homebrew games are omitted. NPI WOL (talk) 22:50, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Lists-related deletion discussions. WCQuidditch 23:07, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify - feels similar to the recent discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Atari 2600 prototype games, which ended with a consensus to send it to the draft space. This sort of list can be done right. But not like this. Needs sourcing, which can be hard to come by with a subject so old like this. It could be improved, but it also has no business existing in the main space as is. Sergecross73 msg me 23:23, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That was games not released, so totally unrelated to the situation here. Category:Video game lists by platform shows how many list like this exist. Any references can be found in the 76 game articles linked to. Dream Focus 03:31, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That's completely irrelevant. Whether or not the games were released was not a factor in that discussion. The point was, it was a valid list premise, but couldn't be published as its current form because of a complete lack of sourcing. I dont understand how you missed the point so badly... Sergecross73 msg me 13:09, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I already added some references simply by looking at the articles linked to and copying them over. As I clearly stated, the 76 games articles linked to have references confirming they exist. The many other lists like this don't have references for every single item. If you wish to delete any entry without a reference and/or their own article, then you still have 76 things listed, so its a valid list. Dream Focus 14:38, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd say roughly 75% of the entries don't have an article to check for sources though, which still leaves you with an article that's either largely unsourced (or wildly incomplete if you remove all unsourced entries.) Still feels like a prime candidate for the draft space... Sergecross73 msg me 15:13, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify as stated above, whilst somewhat lazy of me, the response in the Atari 2600 discussion is identically relevant here: The list is a valid one with a clear category and not inherently without merit. But it's just unverifiable based on the lack of sourcing, the ambiguous scope, and non-notability of the items themselves. Put it this way - if it were a list, the immediate question would be "How do you know these are eligible?" In this case, there is one source, but that isn't going to be enough to WP:VERIFY the list. More work is needed. (talk) 05:26, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify for the reasons stated by VRXCES.Rillington (talk) 10:45, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - It is a relevant list of a relevant system, not some random prototype. NPI WOL (talk) 10:54, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but you have to WP:VERIFY that the list is correct. It may not be as arbitrary as the other example, but relying on a single source for this list is putting a very strong faith in that source being a correct and complete list. So really the article is no more reliable than just going to the external source. The best course is to either find more sources, or draftify it until someone does so. VRXCES (talk) 11:06, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(You're supposed to identify yourself as the article creator.) Even ignoring Wikipedia policies that make this not okay, the list, as is, is completely unnecessary. You just stole another websites list and put it in Wikipedia. People should be going to see their website to see their list. It's entirely redundant. A list of these games is possible...but absolutely not like this. Sergecross73 msg me 13:36, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I also want this article kept but I agree with VRXCES, and would also add that the article needs independent references as well before it can be returned to mainspace. Therefore I feel that draftifying the article is the right course of action at this point.
One option might be for the list to be a combination of notable games and games which can be verified with an independent reference. Rillington (talk) 01:51, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator comment: @NPI WOL: Could you say where you source this list from? I think policy is to Wikipedia:Revision deletion copyright violations, but we may keep the entries that can be verified by the added sources. We could redirect a redirect to the existing category as long as the list is in draft if that helps with concerns? IgelRM (talk) 07:16, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - This list is complete, it has historical encyclopaedic value to anyone with an interest in retro videogames. Not only that, but games for a specific console are a widely discussed topic as a group. My question then to inclusion criteria is whether sources do likely exist. I did a spot check on some random ones on this list, and I'm satisfied that okayish sources do generally exist. For example, picking a random one from the list "Astro Plumber" I found https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/47327/Astro%20Plumber/ and nothing else after some real hard looking. I think this article is valid, but should adopt a WP:CSC of requiring citation. I'm happy to move the current page content onto the talk page after this AfD closes.

For what little it's worth, I never offer my opinion in an AfD without preparation. On the substance of your protest: She has been once and once only in a somewhat notable creation where her role is secondary to the two protagonists. To bring it home more clearly, she's not qualified for a leading role award in it. The other appearance concerns Special Ops 1.5: The Himmat Story where she has a truly small role. And there are actors in it with more filmic appearances who rightly do not qualify for a Wikipedia article. Apparently, you are confusing significant roles with insignificant ones. But we carry on. -The Gnome (talk) 20:27, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Am I confusing significant with insignificant? Oh, that's really bad then. I'll think about it when recounting the 7 occurrences of her character's name in the plot. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 23:11, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a musician, not properly sourced as passing WP:NMUSIC. The attempted notability claim here is that she was a non-winning competitor on American Idol, which is not an automatic notability freebie in and of itself -- obviously a person can lose an Idol series and still go on to accomplish other notable things in their music career anyway, but people don't automatically qualify for articles just for competing on Idol per se -- but the only other thing here is that an independent album exists for sale on CDBaby, which isn't a notability clincher either.
And for footnotes we've got one directly affiliated primary source, one directory entry, one glancing namecheck of her existence in an Idol episode recap that isn't otherwise about her, and one deadlinked piece of "local young woman ends run on reality show" in her hometown local media, which isn't enough to get her over WP:GNG all by itself if it's the only piece of proper media coverage about her that she has.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have more noteworthy achievements, and better sourcing for them, than just competing in a reality show. Bearcat (talk) 21:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:

    People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.

    • If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

  • Alexis Gomez competed in season 14 of the television show American Idol, which ran from 7 January to 13 May 2015. She received significant coverage in reliable sources in 2013, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022. This demonstrates she has received sustained coverage outside of her appearance on the show. Cunard (talk) 21:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • And precisely which of those quotes suggests that any of said coverage exists in any context that would satisfy any NMUSIC criterion? GNG isn't a raw number of footnotes, and requires the footnotes to exist in noteworthy contexts — which is why, for example, a member of parliament passes GNG on just one hit of verification that they're actually a member of parliament, whereas a city councillor can fail GNG on a couple of dozen run of the mill hits of purely local coverage that doesn't establish nationalizing significance: because GNG test sources for the context of what they're covering the person for, and not just the raw number of hits that it's possible to show. So precisely which of those hits exist in notable contexts, considering that what you've shown is entirely local coverage in and around her own hometown and none of it establishes passage of any NMUSIC criterion?

Insufficient depth-of-coverage from third-party sources; Forbes article is from Forbes "contributor" which doesn't count toward notability. Only other is from Ilna, which by itself isn't sufficient. OhNoitsJamie Talk 20:50, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, Either version of the article is just bad. The recent version was just a mix of contributor blogs (forbes/nasdaq), press releases (cbs42), and a junk PR site (dreamersdoers). All of it looked like paid placement. The author also attmpted to used a blackhat SEO blog associated with the Kivo PR farm, but was prevented by the blocklist. I won't even comment about the nature of the business that was being promoted there. The prior article, which was just restored by the author, has only three sources:
  • honaronline.ir - does not seem mention the subject of the article, but maybe the translation software is butchering it
  • dejavufashionstudio.com - subjects personal site, which was defunct by 2016 and the old copies at archive.org are pretty messed up
  • modefasl.ir - seems to be a very brief interview with the subject by the organizers of a fashion show?
The external link given has a longer interview, but very little on details about the actual subject of the article. I've looked for other sources, and see a large amount of paid places in the usual SEO sources. That makes it hard to find anything organic. Obviously, it's very difficult to search for Persian media, so I may have missed something. Sam Kuru (talk) 01:54, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
External link is from the Iranian Labour News Agency, an independent agency with considerable authority. It contains numerous mentions of Zahra Yarahmadi's impact. Other links are older but still mention Zahra's impact, including honaronline.ir.
It is worth keeping the article live to highlight Zahra Yarahmadi's impact on Iranian fashion. Organic mentions are hard to find because of the language barrier and the old dates when the impact was made. Viictoria14 (talk) 17:48, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is the only contribution of 88.118.177.59 to Wikipedia.
  • Forensics on sources:
We have, in the "References" section, three inaccessible links, here, here, and here.
Under "External links," which formally do not work as sources, we have interviews, which, as well, do not qualify as a supporting source for notability, such as this, this, and this; this advertorial; one routine news listing; and this item about the Dejavu Art Cultural Institute.
Wikipedia is not the place for legacies. We either have notability-supporting sources, or we don't. This is not a directory nor some repository for any kind of information. As a matter of fact, it is not the host of haphazardly collected information, no matter how ostensibly noble the purpose. -The Gnome (talk) 14:02, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep‎. This is not casting aspersions but don't nominate an article for deletion because "I don't think he really meets notability guidelines". There is a lot of uncertainty in a statement like that and "he doesn't strike me as notable" opens the door to editors who DO think he strikes them as notable. I'm not singling out this AFD because I see this a lot in AFDLand but if you aren't sure there is notability present or you haven't done a thorough BEFORE, then a nomination for deletion isn't called for. Really. Liz Read! Talk! 22:51, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since, the notability seems on the borderline and the references looks like paid placements so AfD would be the best place for it. Bhivuti45 (talk) 09:41, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think the subject is, unfortunately, notable, though the fairly clear COI/UPE violation is worrying. Going through the first few sources, the BBC article is not sigcov, but the NYT and two TechCrunch articles definitely are, and the Verge and FT articles probably as well. The Yahoo Finance articles are probably not, as they read more like press releases/statistics reports. The Fortune article might be GNG-level for the article on Schnetzler himself, but as an interview is not good for this article. Overall, that's 3-5 sources that count towards the GNG, which means the subject is likely notable. The biggest weakness is that the article does not give a claim to notability, but it one could easily be added – the newspaper articles focus on the fact that the IP has been monetized in the real world to boost the value of the NFTs, which is interesting. For a closing admin, this is a keep !vote on the sources alone, but a neutral !vote because of the likely COI violation. If an uninvolved editor were to WP:TNT and use the sources to write a new article from scratch, I would be writing a clear keep !vote. Toadspike (talk) 10:46, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    After reading the comments below, I think there is a valid rationale for discounting the NYT source as not independent, since meeting NCORP requires more attention to independence than usual. I'm not experienced with the WP:TECHCRUNCH rules, but it seems that these two articles were written by a "real journalist" and are not just blog entries by random netizens, which means they should be OK. The FT article, on second glance, doesn't seem like SIGCOV to me.
    This leaves two TechCrunch articles and one Verge article to meet the GNG/NCORP. That's 2 or 3 sources, depending on how you count. I will strike my earlier opinion and say the subject is likely not notable – it would take another solid source to convince me that we should keep this UPE around.

    Just because a topic has been mentioned on well known media doesn't make it notable by default. This topic may be notable (which is being discussed here) but there are literally paid placements available for these media (for instance, upwork listing). The NYT article reads more like an opinion piece and also see WP:TECHCRUNCH. Bhivuti45 (talk) 18:09, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I should have included that he was captain chronic from the Kottonmouth Kings when I originally wrote the article. It was late, and I was tired when I wrote it.

  • Delete: complete lack of SIGCOV both with the references already in the article, and from a quick scour of the internet. When you take a closer look, the provided references don't actually prove the claims made in the article, so either they are redundant or have been updated since. Let's take a deeper dive:
Ref 1 doesn't even mention him by name, only connecting the band with the record company in passing.
Ref 2 lists Moseley as the speaker at an event, but gives no information about him, and mentions him only in passing.
Ref 3 fails to mention Moseley, or backup the article's claim in any way - it does not say he executive produces it, or that it is acclaimed.
Ref 4 mentions in passing that he is the producer of the album that the article is talking about, but nothing more. It doesn't say that he's been prominent, or released any number of albums.
Ref 5 is essentially the same: a news article covering this event, with only a passing reference to Moseley.
Ref 6 says that a given artist is signed to a given record company, without mentioning Moseley. Also, one client signing cannot backup the claim that 'He has a wide-ranging list of clients signed to his company', or that it's his company in the first place.
Ref 7 is essentially the same as 4 and 5: a news article covering this event, with only a passing reference to Moseley.
Hopefully, this explains how the article has no backed up claims, and after scouring the internet for 10 minutes, I can't find anything that backs up these claims myself. The refs themselves do not provide substantial enough coverage to cut down the article's content to referenced claims, as there are none. Thanks, JacobTheRox (talk) 10:50, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: I was tagged because I technically started this article by converting a redirect into a stub. At the time, it was called WKRP-LP and redirected to WDDN-LP, which had become misleading due to call sign changes, so I needed to correct the record. The station’s only claim to fame, as far as I knew, was that it took the call sign “WKRP”, which is the subject of much (fictional) media lore. Nowadays, we’d probably just add a blurb to a disambiguation page and call it a day. Since then, the station has been renamed and WKRP-LP has been taken by an unrelated station that doesn’t even acknowledge this one in a hatnote. I don’t have any particular nostalgia for this article, but I’ll take this opportunity to thank Wcquidditch, Markman1, and Tvstationfan101 for correcting and expanding the article.

Why do we even have this topic? Earthquakes in New York are rare. Seems like WP:NOTNEWS. But even most of the sources used in this article aren't really specific to New York earthquakes. We don't even have an article about seismicity of San Francisco which probably would be more appropriate.I could see incorporating some of this into an article about Earthquakes in the eastern United States, but we don't even have that. Articles about New York do not get auto-notability, just because its New York. Rusf10 (talk) 01:22, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps instead of deleting this article because the corresponding article for San Francisco does not exist, we should create the article about San Francisco. 104.162.205.129 (talk) 01:52, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think San Francisco is mostly covered at the articles for the named faults because it has named faults. The geological dynamics at the transform plate boundary are different than what is seen in the Northeast, where the pressure from divergent plate dynamics causes different patterns of earthquakes. The earthquakes in the Northeast are not less serious, they just don't always occur in the same place. I can focus the article more on New York specifically but I'm not seeing a reason to delete it. NeonSpectre (talk) 02:06, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
While an article could be created for today's earthquake I think that may be a little NOTNEWS-y. The article was moved to this title today. The previous title was better. Other titles might be even better. It includes the historic New York earthquakes about which much has been written, and the historic earthquakes that were felt in New York. I don't really care that we don't have an article about San Francisco, but you can write one if you want to. NeonSpectre (talk) NeonSpectre (talk) 01:55, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think my point here was missed entirely, it was not that we need an article about San Francisco earthquakes, it was why does New York gets its own article when we could actually have a legitimate article about the earthquakes in the eastern Untied States which would be notable have seems to have plenty of sources, unlike this where its just using bits and pieces of other sources that are focused on a broader topic or just news articles about a particular event.--Rusf10 (talk) 02:35, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have already started the process of splitting the general content about the eastern United States and focusing the article on New York CityState. I wasn't very concerned about the title when another editor moved the article to Seismicity of the New York City area. Your complaint seems to be about New York though which I don't get. There are many easy to find sources for the Seismicity of New York State. NeonSpectre (talk) 03:25, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why? see WP:NOTAVOTE--Rusf10 (talk) 02:35, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why? because the seismicity of any major region is notable. Page isn't entitled “New York gets lots of earthquakes," and the documented rarity of a phenomenon in a region is notable as its documented commonality. Look at Snow in Florida. Hyperbolick (talk) 06:23, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Personally, an article for "Earthquakes in the eastern United States" sounds like a great idea. But it does not currently exist. This article may be thin and perhaps could use a clean-up, but this is a situation where the issue is not that we've got an article for a specific locale, but that we DON'T have a better extant overarching article, or one for other regions (as mentioned, such as San Francisco). DarkSide830 (talk) 05:28, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This is a two-pronged issue, but I do think this meets the GNG, independent of the existence (or lack thereof) of articles about the seismicity of other regions.
  • There are scholarly sources like this, this, this, this, or this, in addition to resources like this. This doesn't even include the news and magazine articles that address the subject. If you're talking about seismicity in New York state, the reason for the AFD makes even less sense, as probably hundreds of scholarly sources exist about earthquakes in New York (e.g. the western part of the state).
  • Furthermore, I don't see how an article on the seismicity of NYC, or earthquakes in NYC, precludes the creation of an article about earthquakes in the San Francisco Bay Area or even the eastern U.S. Even if there wasn't enough material to warrant a separate article about NYC earthquakes/seismicity, it still does not prevent the scope of this article from being expanded to cover the eastern U.S.
Epicgenius (talk) 15:51, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: While I understand the recent news of an earthquake that happened not too far from here, the recent spur in attention regarding to the earthquake may help improve the article. I honestly believe it could have been better if there were some work to be added and as mentioned from others, it already has met some requirements that other users mentioned. 20chances (talk) 20:27, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The rarity of earthquakes in the NYC area and thus explanations for their occurrence have been the focus of numerous reliable sources (e.g., those presented by Epicgenius) that would satisfy GNG. Such an article would also provide a place to discuss earthquakes that may not be individually notable (to not run afoul of WP:NOTNEWS for each one), and could readily be expanded in scope to include the northeastern US if the NYC area is too specific. The nomination statement also appears to rely somewhat heavily on WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, and scope and sourcing issues are better addressed with cleanup than deletion. Complex/Rational 21:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The topic for this article is not centered around news of latest events, even if a section is. This topic has been proved to meet GNG and is more of a scientific topic than one focused on just "earthquakes that happened in New York." VarietyEditor (talk) 01:36, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:BIO notability tests. This man seems to be of interest to his descendants (because he is the earliest known person with the family name), but he has not received significant coverage in published sources and there is not indication of his being important outside the family or a very local context (the article's best assertion for his notability is that he was one of the several founders of a colonial village). The three books cited in the article are a book (probably self-published) of family history and genealogy and two books of the history of the area where he lived. Before starting this AfD, I found online copies of the two history books, identified places where his name was mentioned, and added citations to the article. I found only peripheral mentions of him. He is also covered on the genealogical site WikiTree at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Snedeker-9 in an article that has far more information and reference citations than the Wikipedia article, but nothing I see there indicates significant published coverage or demonstrates his importance to people who are not his descendants. Orlady (talk) 16:27, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Reading earlier through Google Books, I saw a lot of mentions under four different names. There were one or more persons named after him but this was easy enough to separate. I agree with Orlady that the length of coverage is not a strength. The cumulative coverage, continued interest, and the fact there are no BLP concerns for this 17th-century historical figure do work in the article's favor. Also, while the descendants and other regional history buffs seem to pay attention to this figure (as already mentioned by Orlady), they do not try to make him into something he wasn't as we sometimes see. It's a healthy interest. I am leaning keep and would appreciate it if user:Ruud Buitelaar could also take a look, as Dutch and history. gidonb (talk) 05:33, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Reply. For the record, much of what you see in the current version of the article is content that I added to give the stub article a fighting chance. In the article version I found, the article claimed he was one of 3 founders of Midwout (a "fact" that was not supported by the histories cited; it appears to me that he was merely one of the three men whose names somebody remembered), and the main thrust of the article was on the meaning of the name Midwout. That's content that arguably could be moved into the article about Midwout. Orlady (talk) 15:42, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
TBT, I hadn't examined the edit history, as I usually do. Just the product as is and the potential sources by NEXIST. Looking at the history, I am impressed and not surprised since I'm a longtime fan of your work around Wikipedia! gidonb (talk) 17:27, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you @Gidonb for inviting me to the discussion. I think @Orlady did an amazing job researching the subject. Jan Snedeker´s claim to fame is being a founder of Midwood but if history books about the New Netherlands colony hardly mention him, then it is not Wikipedia´s task to rewrite the books and insert his name. That said, I would love to see a publication about Snedeker and his life and works in New Netherlands. Until then, I support the delete vote. Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 03:17, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a clear WP:NOTSTATS violation of indiscriminate trivia. Let'srun (talk) 20:14, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'd be more sympathetic to these articles if they were maintainable over time, but experience shows that they're not. You'd need a small army of NBA editors to deal with all the little details that need updating. Rankings and records easily go out of date; for example, Nikola Jokic has surpassed many of Carmelo's Nuggets accomplishments, but that's not reflected in this article. There are some things that Wikipedia will never be able to do as well as sites like basketball-reference.com.
  • These articles might work if they were limited to awards and truly significant records, but in most cases, we should be able to make room for such facts in the main article. (Of course, the main Carmelo Anthony page is super-bloated itself; the level of detail per season is higher than what you'd find at Michael Jordan. That's because people wrote Carmelo's career section while his career was ongoing, rather than taking a retrospective approach.) Zagalejo (talk) 06:47, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for the comment. I just wanted to add that there are some things basketball-reference (and all others) will never be able to do as well as Wikipedia on sports lists. When done right, career achievements is a collection of pertinent info from a variety of RS sources that no single non-Wiki source has access to. - BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 18:49, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have carried out WP:BEFORE on this previously unfootnoted article about a musician and church leader, and added two reviews of one of his albums. I have not found other coverage to add. I am not sure if one of the publications, CCM Magazine, is a reliable source, as its About says "The information in the post above may have been formatted to suit this website, but is not necessarily material originally created by, or exclusive to CCMmagazine.com", and no author is given. In any case, based on two reviews I do not think that the subject of the article is notable under WP:GNG or WP:NMUSIC. Tacyarg (talk) 00:13, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
