    • Reason: I would propose a merge, but I don't know what of this can be salvaged. It looks like an advertisement, and it may well be -- 23% of the article's content was written by apparent SPA

      in 2014. Only one source is cited in the entire article, which is a single quotation where it seems to be mentioned in passing. Google does not seem to bring up any sources that aren't advertisements.

    • Reason: Literally not a single news result for this person. A plain Google result brings only 13 results, one of which is a product listing and the rest of which are automatically generated lists of people (likely scraped from Wikipedia). The single source in the article is a generated profile page on a website; literally the entirety of it is "was born in 1975 in Sana'a, Yemen, where she still lives. She has one poetry collection". Does not pass GNG and there are no sources.

    • Reason: The same as the previous nomination, this is a nonsensically titled userscript which does nothing. I am unable to nominate it for speedy deletion because all userspace .js and .css pages are fully protected to everyone except the page owner. There are several others belonging to the same user, which I'll bundle with this nomination. None of the scripts below does anything or has any output, with the exception of several where the entire script consists of a single line popping up an alert window with "10" or "foo" in it.

    • Reason: Sad, strange, little non-standard subpage of an AfD containing several redlinks to talk pages of long-deleted articles. Orphaned, so it wasn't linked to from anywhere, or used for anything, at any point. Its only purpose is to clog up scripts and bots that process AfDs, and needlessly throw errors.

    ) 23:49, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
    • Reason: This article was nominated at AfD in 2011, but never linked from a daily log page, never fully opened and never formally closed. Per closer note recommending a new nomination be made, here is what that nomination said:
      :The article 'Farrah Sarafa' was nominated for deletion in January 2011, but no consensus was reached. I strongly believe it should remain under consideration for deletion. Please note that I was not part of the original nomination or discussion.
      :Upon consideration of Wikipedia's Notability Guidelines for biographies, I hold that the person in question does not adequately meet the standard.
      :For instance: According to the cited links, Farrah Sarafa is a graduate student who contributes to 'various publications'- sources include a link to several articles for a single website ( Green & Save.com) as well as a work released through "Shadowpoetry.com"- a self-publishing website. The article also claims that Ms. Sarafa has won 'a number of awards and prizes for her poetry.' The only awards cited are (1) a college poetry award (Hopwood) for a contest that is only open to University of Michigan students and (2) a "second place" poetry award in a competition by a small specialty publisher, Chistell Publishing (http://www.chistell.com/company.htm).
      :I feel that the article and its links establish that "Farrah Sarafa" is: an adjunct professor, a freelance writer and magazine contributor- but not that this person is particularly distinguished within any of these creative fields. This said, the subject does not adequately merit its own article.
      This just isn't a very good article. It wasn't a very good one then, and it still isn't one. I do not see anything that passes WP:NPROF, and running a magazine that "underscores industry pioneers" is not WP:GNG.

      , which I am uncertain about (the article has citations, at least claims notability, and has existed in mainspace since December 11). Nonetheless, it is not a particularly great article. Almost all of the citations are to self-published sources. The sources that aren't self-published are questionable; being listed on CoinMarketCap is of dubious notability, for example, as there are tens of thousands of tokens, coins and chains listed there. Others, like the citations to cosmos.network, have nothing to do with Decimal.

    • Reason: This article does not seem to be supported by much. While they've been around for three years, the only references are passing mentions (in a long list of companies) in an arXiv paper, a venture firm's website, a podcast interview, a Forbes profile of the founder (which makes no mention of "Preamble"), a Medium post, and a press release by a research organization that doesn't mention Preamble in the body text at all (it is mentioned only in a footnote).
      I could not find any additional sources for this article by doing a
      WP:BEFORE
      search.

    • Reason: This article is a vanispamcruftisement so obvious it would qualify for speedy deletion if it had been nominated years ago when first written. As it stands, there is no content at all in the entire article not sourced to the company's own webpage. How did this get through?

      Their rationale was: "talk page + talk page for user that made the page indicate there was discussion about deletion due to a lack of noteworthiness, but nothing was documented about why the page was kept over the past few years".

    • Reason: Opening a discussion here because it seems like the most appropriate place -- should this be userfied? It was used for a test in 2010, blanked in 2020, and I guess four years later it's still just kind of sitting around as a blank page. I don't know what the proper protocol is with MediaWiki pages, but are we supposed to just have random blank pages in that namespace?

      None of the sources are about him in a significant way. We've got a lot of information coming from unreliable sources: a bio of the guy on a talent booking website, not one but two PDFs hosted on "filesusr.com" written by a political advocacy group... note that I literally can't even link these URLs in the AfD despite being an admin because they are on the global spam blacklist...
      his own websites, etc. The closest thing we get to sigificant, neutral third-party coverage is this blog post (which is for some reason in the ref list twice, as #4 and also #13). This Wired article mentions him once, in a single paragraph, in the sentence: Prominent pandemic deniers include a number of keen yoga practitioners, such as alternative health proponent Sayer Ji, who runs the website greenmedinfo.com, and his wife Kelly Brogan, who describes herself as a ‘holistic psychiatrist.’ This The Hill article also mentions him once, in a list with twelve other people. That's it. Here is a single fact check page
      about something that was on his website. This isn't significant coverage and the guy is not notable.

    • Reason: Something of a pro forma nomination: Svejk74 has made a few comments on the talk page going back several years to the effect that this article ought to be deleted, but said that they weren't really sure how to file an AfD. Honestly, it would probably give a better impression of what they've said to just go there and read it, but I will also transcribe it here for convenience.
      (April 2020): So, looking closely at this article (which I only noticed as people kept linking it from the Khmer Rouge article):
      Started by a banned user
      Most references didn't actually support the text
      I'm still not sure that the whole thing isn't just based on a few occurences of the phrase "tropical fascism" in a couple of books; it's certainly not a concept in "African political science" as the article originally tried to make out.
      (December 2021): To reiterate my previous points:
      - No evidence of this existing as a defined political concept before the Wikipedia article was started, beyond a few uses of "tropical" as a simple adjective
      - None of the references originally cited supported the article
      - The Portugese article has exactly the same issues, being a compilation of various statements about various quite different regimes that have been defined as 'fascist'
      As stated in the opening to the article that I added a couple of years back, it seems to have been a phrase occasionally used to describe different post-colonial regimes, not a defined political concept.
      [in response to a couple of references]
      I would be cautious of citing anything published after the creation of this article; academics aren't above picking up phrases from Wikipedia!
      I would be interested to see what the two older, Brazilian references say but again I suspect they are more likely discussing the Fascist characteristics of the Brazilian military government; also note the original Wikipedia article referred to Tropical Fascism" as a concept in "African political science" specifically.
      - There is no evidence of "Tropical Fascism" existing as a defined political concept before the Wikipedia article was started, beyond a few uses of "tropical" as a simple adjective. I checked, extensively, for references in journal articles, books, anywhere pre 2014. Nothing. This is unsurprising, as the concept never actually existed.
      - None of the references originally cited supported the article. They didn't talk about a distinct concept of 'tropical Fascism'; if anything they simply drew attention to quasi-Fascist aspects of a variety of (very different) postcolonial regimes.
      - The Portugese article has exactly the same issues, being a compilation of various statements about various quite different regimes that have been defined as 'fascist'
      As stated in the opening to the article that I added a couple of years back, it seems to have been a phrase occasionally used to describe different post-colonial regimes, not a defined political concept. In short, the user who originally created this article effectively made up the concept of "tropical Fascism", which they stated was a concept in "African political science" (it isn't, or at least wasn't until it was invented for the purposes of the article). It's OR.

In short, the user who originally created this article effectively made up the concept of "tropical Fascism", which they stated was a concept in "African political science" (it isn't, or at least wasn't until it was invented for the purposes of the article). It's OR, and dubious, slightly racist OR at that. Are we supposed to believe that there is a distinct variety of Fascism practiced by people living in "tropical" latitudes?
      A user appears to be using this article as a soapbox to add various opinions about the Brazilian regime. They might be better addressed at the Brazil page than here.
      Personally, I am inclined to agree with Svejk's analysis in this case: it really doesn't seem like this is a distinct concept. It seems like a "very large cake" thing: you can find lots of instances where people use the phrase "very large cake" in newspapers/books, but this doesn't mean that Very large cake should be a Wikipedia article, since it is not a coherent concept.
