List of oldest continuously inhabited cities

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

This list has been a magnet for original research and edit warring for years. The basic problem is that we don't have good sources that treat the subject as a cohesive set, because while the "X is the oldest city in Y" is an attention-grabbing headline, it's not really a topic of serious scholarly interest. Instead, the list has been cobbled together from hundreds of sources that make claims about the age of individual cities. This is problematic because these sources don't have a consistent definition of—and rarely even discuss—what counts as a "city" or what it means to be "continuously inhabited". Non-academic sources also routinely repeat dubious dates without checking where they come from or confuse e.g. a prehistoric camp site being found within or adjacent to a village with that village being "10,000 years old", especially where there's a nationalistic angle (i.e. our oldest city is oldest than our neighbours).

I suggest deletion because I don't think this list is salvageable by changing the scope or sourcing requirements and in general we have moved on from these SYNTHy collections that were common in the early days. – Joe (talk) 10:26, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Killing of Nahida and Samar Anton

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

Notability tag was challenged on the basis that there was sigcov - which is not really how notability for events works, every item of breaking news gets sigcov. There is no lasting and analytical coverage in this article to fulfill NEVENT. Every source in this article is from the week it happened. For an event to pass notability, it must receive analytical and continued coverage, of which this has neither, it's just "this thing happened", which is not encyclopedic. This has some passing mentions but no sigcov. WP:PRIMARYNEWS. PARAKANYAA (talk) 09:29, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:NBIO, there's no significant coverage about him or his life in the cited sources, most of them infact are about the organisation he founded. Ratnahastin (talk) 07:29, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. He co-founded NASSCOM (about which we have an article) with half a dozen or six dozen others. He wrote a book. The book was well received, and we have an article on it. He is apparently a somewhat-known name in India, anyway, but for the purposes of his article, he does not seem to pass GNG, as the coverage I've found tends to be either in-passing mentions or non-independent. The article itself is quite dreadful, as it happens, but it's not worth trying to repair his resumé at his current level of demonstrated notability. — JohnFromPinckney (talk / edits) 08:11, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ava Kris Tyson

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

A previous AfD last year decided that this article should be merged into MrBeast Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Tyson (2nd nomination), and was recreated this year by a user with only 54 edits total [2] While the misconduct allegations that have come out since that discussion have signficiantly enhanced the coverage of this individual, I still think that it should be deleted/redirected for a number of reasons. 1. This individual has basically only been covered in the context of coming out as transgender and misconduct allegations against them, which is entirely within the context of their relationship with MrBeast (WP:NOTINHERITED), and given that their relationship with MrBeast has ended it seems unlikely that they will get any followup coverage in the future. Both aspects are already adequately covered in the main MrBeast article. While this isn't technically a BLP1E, it's not exactly far off. 2. This article since its recreation has been a massive target for serious BLP-violating vandalism which continually comes back despite having been semi-protected numerous times over the last few months and seems unlikely to abate in the near future. Wikipedia has a duty of care towards BLP subjects and I do not think this page currently serves a useful purpose. Hemiauchenia (talk) 03:19, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For clarity I am fine with the article being merged as suggested by others below. Hemiauchenia (talk) 19:37, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge This is a difficult one to judge. It is very close to BLP1E. I don't know if any (official) charges were made against the subject? The reason I ask is that if there are criminal charges then this may drag on and result in further information being added. Obviously, WP:CRYSTAL applies as to what might happen in the future. For now, I think this is as close as you can get to BLP1E and the article should be merged to MrBeast. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Knitsey (talk • contribs)

As far as I am aware, there are no criminal charges. Hemiauchenia (talk) 14:04, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(Sorry for forgetting to sign, I sometimes forget when desktop editing)

I've had a look around for anything else about the subject and can't find anything other than the recent accusations against her. It should be noted, that not all American sources are available in the UK. Knitsey (talk) 14:15, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge? Probably? I was expecting this to be a keep but adding "-beast -mrbeast" to the Google searches returns only non-RS stuff. Some of it is people involved with Tyson having their say, which is fair enough, but most of it is cynical drama content and other worthless slop. However, I do have a warning: Merging this will not stop the disruption. It will only move it to the merged article. We may even get an increase in disruption as the content would be in a higher profile article. That said, if it should be merged then we can't let that stop us. --DanielRigal (talk) 14:09, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This articles content is basically already entirely covered at MrBeast#LGBT Issues (in the personal views section, where their gender transition is discussed) and MrBeast#Ava Kris Tyson (in the controversies section which covers the misconduct allegations), so I don't see how redirecting this article will realistically increase disruption if the content is already there.

Delete: Any content in the page is merged into the MrBeast page already, and in the scope of BLP, I don't think it's great, although the semi protection has worked, so not sure about the BLP section, but given it's not adding much value given most content is already in the MrBeast page, I think it could be deleted.

New Republican People's Party

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

There is no such thing as the “New Republican People’s Party”. The phrase was used a couple of times by the former leader, but the sources don’t support the claim that it was consistently applied or had any specific meaning. Yes the former leader changed some of the party’s political direction, and perhaps a few sentences from this article could be merged into Republican People's Party, but essentially this just isn’t a thing.

Cuisine of Jamaica

This article was redirected to Jamaican cuisine all the way back in 2008 [4] and remained as a redirect right up until 45 minutes ago today, where user @876made literally copypasted the entire redirected article over to here.

Revert to redirect to Jamaican cuisine: this probably didn't even need to come to AfD, since this was just a cut-and-paste move in the first place and the redirect could have easily been restored. Since we're here, though, this can no longer be done unilaterally during the AfD discussion period. (For the record, since there was a longstanding redirect, speedy deletion under A10 would not apply here — potentially plausible redirects are ineligible for that criterion.)

Source assessment

Created with templates {{ORGCRIT assess table}} and {{ORGCRIT assess}}
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor.
Source	Independent?	Reliable?	Significant coverage?	Secondary?
All the citations already in the article seem to be pressers except the Forbes contributor and WP:TECHCRUNCH so skipping to: Reynolds, Matt (2021-12-20). "This Startup Is Making—and Programming—Human Cells". Wired. ISSN 1059-1028. Retrieved 2024-10-20.	–		– Maybe the first sentence of the penultimate paragraph, and the first two of the last, are both directly about the subject and not quotes.	Bit of a stretch to call those three secondary.
"Cambridge Company Bit Bio Presses Enter To The Software Of Life". The Healthcare Technology Report. 2020-06-23. Retrieved 2024-10-20.	Seems like WP:TRADES likely paraphrasing a presser to me	No idea how reliable	Skipped, quickfail on other criteria
Regalado, Antonio. "Here's why I am coining the term "embryo tech"". MIT Technology Review. Retrieved 2024-10-20.			Namecheck due to quoting founder, no actual coverage
Google didn't pick up these ones for me for some reason, but: Bawden, Tom (2020-10-22). "Scientists could make an organ from scratch within a decade after cracking human cell code". i. Retrieved 2024-10-20.			Seems like a routine rehash of PR material to me
Whipple, Tom (2020-10-27). "Bit.Bio: British firm cracks code for stem cells". The Times. Retrieved 2024-10-20.			Slightly better than the one from i but still routine coverage of the partnership announcement IMO	–
Knapton, Sarah (2022-05-21). "Scientists unlock code for stem cell transformation which could provide cure for Huntington's". The Daily Telegraph. ISSN 0307-1235. Retrieved 2024-10-20.	Again, this is 90% quotes

There are, of course, hundreds of other press releases, but I've omitted those for brevity. Additionally, even if appropriate sources meeting NCORP are found for this subject, half of the paragraphs in § Origins are biomedical in nature, which makes the sourcing to press releases instead of actually reliable sources highly inappropriate, and I would advocate that the article be confined to draftspace on those grounds alone (or otherwise removed from indexing). The creator of the article is also a single purpose account, though they have denied a COI. It is possible that they are simply an overly enthusiastic new editor.

Alpha3031, just a brief note to say that there is abundant off-wiki evidence to indicate that the article creator here is a UPE linked to the company. That being the case, I wonder if you had considered the possibility of also referring the article on Bit.bio founder Mark Kotter to AfD as it is equally promotional and the work of the same UPE user? (I would do so myself but for unfamiliarity with the process of creating an AfD).

Further info on the background can be found at the relevant thread at COIN, here [5]. Kind regards, Axad12 (talk) 05:29, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see. I did skim that thread but I missed the part about off-wiki evidence. If that's the case then the paid-en-wp VRT queue may be able to do things that AfD does not normally do, like enforce AfC (or block the editor in question). However, I will make it a priority to conduct a BEFORE for that article as well. Alpha3031 (t • c) 05:38, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. My feeling is that the very easily accessible evidence is so compelling that referral to paid-en-wp should not really be necessary. The user is clearly a promo-only SPA with a disruptive editing pattern who has ignored several warnings. The transparent nature of the UPE should therefore be sufficient for the user to be site blocked.

Thank you for looking at the Mark Kotter article, much appreciated. If the two articles end up being deleted then hopefully that will put an end to the promo/SPA/COI activity around these subjects. Axad12 (talk) 05:51, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Very strong delete, as per nom. I'd also request that sanctions be implemented against the creator, who has been asked to declare their transparent UPE/COI status but has refused to do so, and has repeatedly removed COI etc templates from the articles they have created.

Beauxbatons

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

This page has similar coverage and notability as other locations in the Harry Potter series, notably the Durmstrang academy as both locations have the same role in the series as schools in the triwizard tournament in the 4th harry potter book, which does not have its own article.

The references in the current article are currently two top 10 trivia lists from screenrant, an article written by JK Rowling herself about the school and other articles that talk about Beauxbatons along with other locations in the series with similar depth and focus.

Based on this with the WP:GNG guidelines I don't believe Beauxbatons has significant independent coverage to warrant its own article, and it should be merged with Places in Harry Potter with other locations in the series that have similar coverage.

IMO, this should be redirected, draftified, deleted, or failing all of those things, sourced. Unfortunately, the first two options will likely be reverted by the article creator. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 03:16, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unnaiye Kadhalipen

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

Fails Wikipedia:Notability (films). Most of the sources are relating to Anjali Nair's wedding and not the film itself. The rest are just passing mentions. Other than the first Kungumam source (which doesn't give much), every other source is a passing mention. The title is just a general way of stating I love you [6] [7]. The film had one unreliable Filmibeat source [8], which was about the marriage incident, which is listed as unreliable at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Film/Indian_cinema_task_force#Generally_used_sources.

Isabella Moore (soprano)

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

Fails WP:GNG. Despite the competition wins, these haven't actually led to any significant work on the concert or opera stage. I could find no reviews of her performances or coverage in independent publications; although I did find media that had connections to the subject and could not be used towards notability because they lacked independence. Her profile in opera base (see https://www.operabase.com/isabella-moore-a2140410/en) which tracks all professional opera productions globally only has one credit, and it isn't even a professional production but a university production. She is involved with the Pegasus Opera Company, but that is only a semi-professional company that operates more like a community theatre organization that a standard opera house. It's productions don't even get tracked by opera base. I think this is possibly a case of WP:TOOSOON, but since she has been at it for over a decade without a significant professional resume she may never achieve notability. 4meter4 (talk) 02:48, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NMUSICIAN. Looking at the listed films, I cannot see where he is mentioned on some and the others I do find him in are not supported by the sources used. A WP:BEFORE finds no significant coverage. There is also some FAKEREFerences used such as those for the awards.
