The one book that is claimed to be a best seller on Amazon was self published using Create Space, and, According to WorldCat, held in only one library WorldCat book entry. The other publications listed in WorldCat are mainly training videos. Analysis of his citation record is complicated because there is another CL Sips who works on mentoring of adolescents and is quite possible notable; the 1 paper I found in GS (and for which is is only one of an number of authors) ," Proposal for a New Screening Paradigm.." has only 31 citations.

List of non-national representative teams in men's football
The criteria of the list is original research. The actual list is not a distinct category but a mixture of county teams, semi-autonomous regions and other association sides. There is no clear encyclopedic reason for the article. Eckerslike (talk) 21:34, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

- Delete - as WP:OR, complete lack of clarity as to what "non-national representative team" means. Could essentially mean anything and requires no form of official approval. Additionally, many of the links here are not to an article on a representative team but to the people / area that they claim to represent. Elements could be used in other articles as noted above but this article is too vague to be encyclopedic. Fenix down (talk) 14:58, 26 May 2015 (UTC)]
- Delete for same reasons as above. Qualification for the list is vague and at the discretion of its editors, which makes it very much non-encyclopedic; and any subset of the list which is encyclopedic already has its own article. Aspirex (talk) 11:47, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Also it's a national event affiliated with Miss Universe which is one of the Big Four international beauty pageants. Lack of sources does not mean lack of notability, I suggest the OP read the pertaining guideline again. Anyway, there are sources in the article. Kraxler (talk) 18:02, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

]- Comment Note that Youtube postings authorized by the creator of the work are, like other self-published sources, reliable as sources about the creator. Moreover, they are reliable (albeit primary) sources about their own existence and content. They are probably also reliable for their metadata, such as number of views and rankings within Youtube. Those seem to be the sorts of things that they are being cited to support in this article, and would properly be used in any article about a noted producer of Youtube content. None of that proves notability here, of cpourse. But the article should not be deleted because of its use of cites to Youtube for things which are properly so cited. DES (talk) 20:53, 23 May 2015 (UTC)]
- I agree, what I said above is that it's a primary source, so doesn't show notability. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:57, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- You also said that they "aren't reliable sources", which, in the context that they are being cited, is incorrect. You are quite correct that they are primary sources, and so it is to other sources that we must look for evidence of notability. DES (talk) 21:31, 23 May 2015 (UTC)]
- That is pure wikilawyering. Please cut it out. --89.0.241.110 (talk) 23:08, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- Not at all. Joseph2302 said "A and B". I objected to A, and gave my reasons. He responded with "But B is true" and I pointed out that my objection was only to the A part of the statement, while agreeing that B was true. More specifically, I agree that cites to Youtube and to Akana's web site are primary sources, and don't establish notability (although the metadata on the Youtube entries, showing number of views, is IMO relevant to notability. But I say that they are proper sources for the things for which they are cited, and their use should not cause people to react "Oh cited to Youtube. Delete!" If the independent secondary sources are sufficient to establish notability (as I believe that they are) then the presence of the Primary cites should be no problem. DES (talk) 23:32, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- I don't see it as Wikilawyering. What I said was ambiguous, and I meant what they said below- this discussion clarififed that I meant that. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:33, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

- I think the operative word here is "most": The vast majority of sources in the article are primary sources. These sources cannot establish the notability of the article subject, nor the relative importance of specific content within the article. --89.0.235.97 (talk) 21:19, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. I have added several citations. I now see (completely ignoring Youtube & IMDB cites and other primary sources) cites to GoodReads, Mochi Magazine, MyDaily, New Media Rockstars (multiple articles), The Huffington Post (multiple articles), Metro, Bustle, and MTV. None of these are "local", and there are more sources out there. I also see mentions from reliable sources about casting Akana in 2 separate films. Granted neither of these has appeared yet, but published reports of this sort add to the notability of someone largely known for youtube videos. The large reported viewership (now confirmed by multiple sources) also indicates notability IMO. Most promotional content seems to have been removed, and any that remains can be removed by normal editing. i see no policy-based reason to delete at this time. DES (talk) 22:55, 23 May 2015 (UTC)]
- None of the sources cover Akana herself in any significant detail as required by Wikipedia:Notability (people). Sorry, but she is simply not notable, and it is impossible to write more than a substub based on secondary sources such as they are available at the moment. --89.0.241.110 (talk) 23:07, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- Note that The Huffington Post, and MTV) have covered teh subject and her works at some length, even if no one of them has an in-depth profile. This is quite sufficient to count as notability on Wikipedia. DES (talk) 23:17, 23 May 2015 (UTC)]
- Note also that an article need not be based wholly on secondary sources, as long as notability has been established, primary sources may be used to verify relevant content. Note further that Wikipedia articles about authors, film-makers, artists, singers, and other creative people often largely cover the body of their work, rather than being devoted to the artist him- or herself. This is such a case. Consider as an example C. J. Cherryh. DES (talk) 23:39, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Not sure what prompted the creation of this article, cited mainly to a community website (the other sources do not seem to be directly about the house).

- Comment It is a location in google maps; it is a named bus stop. What type of location is it? In the U.S. pretty much any populated place is deemed Wikipedia-notable; does this fall in the same category?:Also it was a landmark before 1933 and may in fact be quite old. It is asserted above that the house is not a listed building but has that been checked?
- I'm not sure if the following: British Listed Buildings Co Uk Wales, in St Bride's Major parish, in Vale of Glamorgan, should show it, if it were a listed building.
- It is a "place of interest' Heritage Coast Walk of Ogmore.
- It's a birding location glamorgan birds.
- Note: There are other Portobello Hotels, e.g. the historic Portobello Hotel in Dunedin, New Zealand which appears to be wikipedia-notable:http://portobellohotelandbistro.co.nz/11201.html, and there is a Portobello Hotel in the Notting Hill neighborhood of London.(http://www.portobellohotel.com/location.htm). --doncram 21:58, 23 May 2015 (UTC)]
- It's a house, a building, of no architectural merit. It's not a listed building and, while an 80 year old building may be of interest in the USA or New Zealand, it is unremarkable in Europe. Sionk (talk) 01:25, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
- The New Zealand one dates from 1867 or earlier, so is 148 years old. A 148-year-old establishment in Dunedin is more notable than the same in U.K., sure, because Dunedin was not settled by Europeans until 1844. But is not merely 80 years old. The one in Wales that this article is about is referred to as a well-known landmark in 1933, but I assume it is much older. Do you know how old it is? For that matter, do you know if it has architectural merit? Are you local, have you been there?
- And the St. Bride's Major webpage linked in the article asserts it is at least somewhat interesting and connected to the historic community. I would expect there is more information about it available off-line; there is going to be less on-line info than if it were still a commercial establishment.
- I still am not sure what is Wikipedia policy/practice on populated places in U.S., and also not for the U.K.
- I don't care, hugely, but it does not seem obvious that this is a non-notable topic, and when in doubt I would say it should be kept for the time being. I would defer to someone actively developing the listed buildings in Vale of Glamorgan and/or specifically knowledgeable about the relative importance of places there. Perhaps the article creator, Dr. Blofeld, could comment on why he saw that it had merit. Dr. Blofeld's user page indicates an interest in historic country houses, and he had been editing in Wikipedia for 6 or 7 years before he created this article in 2012. Hmm, I see Dr. Blofeld was not given notice of this AFD, an oversight that can be fixed if he doesn't notice the ping and come comment. --doncram 02:33, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
- True, I forgot to manually notify Dr B after my automated "Twinkle" failed. On the subject of notability, My rule of thumb is that something must have a reasonably strong suggestion of importance and, ideally, proof. Indeed, maybe Dr B can shed light on things.

- My house was built a long time before 1933, as were many thousands of others in my home town. For age to contribute to the notability of building in Britain you would have to be looking at several centuries. 82.9.185.151 (talk) 11:29, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
- N.B.: The Portobello House appears to have existed much earlier than 1933. doncram 16:32, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, I know, and that was the point of my remark. For age to be the deciding factor it certainly wouldn't be enough for the house to have been built in 1833, and probably not in 1733, because there are many buildings of those ages in Britain still being used for the same mundane purposes for which they were built without having attracted great attention. I'm not saying that this article should be deleted, but merely pointing out that age is probably not a factor in any potential notability. 82.9.185.151 (talk) 22:00, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

- It's a house, a building, of no architectural merit. It's not a listed building and, while an 80 year old building may be of interest in the USA or New Zealand, it is unremarkable in Europe. Sionk (talk) 01:25, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep - Article meets WP:N does it state that an article must be of interest to readers from all countries for it to be included in the encyclopedia. MarnetteD|Talk 20:35, 24 May 2015 (UTC)]
- The nomination is because the building is unremarkable with no evidence of notability, not because it is of no interest to readers in other countries. How exactly does it meet WP GNG? Sionk (talk) 23:09, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
- Let's be more precise: I think it is marginally established or not established that the topic meets wp:GNG, but it is also not established that the building is unremarkable (it is hard/impossible to prove the negative, i.e. that there exist no sources explaining how it is remarkable). --doncram 05:18, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep, for now. It is likely that the importance of the Portobello House is covered in a 1988 book which has not been obtained by myself or anyone else commenting here so far. The book is available as an E-book for 10 Euros, and is titled ["Glamorgan Inventory: Vol.4 part 2 Farmhouses and Cottages". It is a work of the RCAHMW, the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales. That book is used as a source in the listing text of the "Old Star Cottage", at British Listed Buildings: Old Star Cottage, St Bride's Major.
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d1/Portobello_House_on_the_Ogmore_-_geograph.org.uk_-_1016966.jpg/220px-Portobello_House_on_the_Ogmore_-_geograph.org.uk_-_1016966.jpg)
- Comparison of the small 1947 photo of Star Cottage in the "community website" to the small 2008 photo of Portobello House (at right here) suggests to me that the two are roughly equivalent: both are country houses, both have end-stack chimneys. The Star Cottage is a mid-1700's (Mid-C18) building; it was listed as a Grade II building in 1999. My hypothesis for now is that the Portobello House dates from the same time, and is perhaps not listed because it has less well-preserved historic integrity (the article notes that it has been modernized). The Star Cottage's listing reason was: "Listed as a picturesque cottage with well preserved external detail, the retention of the thatched roof being of particular interest. / Group value with Ogmore Castle, and contributing considerably to its setting."
- It seems possible that Portobello House is one of the 42 residences of "major landowning families built between ca. 1540 and 1760" that are described in Volume IV Part i "The Greater Houses", and otherwise it is quite likely covered as one of the "secondary residences of those families, as well as houses of lesser landowners, ...[plus]... the houses of minor gentry and the tenant farmers, yeomen, and husbandmen, effectively the 'middle class' of rural society" (1,136 - 42 = 1094 houses) that are covered in Volume IV Part ii "Farmhouses and Cottages" (my quotes here are from the blurb within the 1988 book's description). Either way I expect it has been remarked upon.
- Thus I currently believe that the Portobello House is or was a significant landmark and that sources to develop the article are available off-line, and I vote "Keep" for now. I would defer to person(s) who actually consult the Glamorgan Inventory book and/or who have more local/specific knowledge. --doncram 05:18, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
- This is now beginning to get ridiculous. It's not your job to decide a building is noteworthy based on the fact its chimneys look similar to a nearby building that is listed. That is the job of Cadw or some other official body. You have no evidence that Portobello House is listed in this book, so the fact no-one here has read it is irrelevant. If Portobello House was listed, that could be easily proven by looking on Britishlistedbuildings.co.uk (and it isn't).
- Quite the contrary to what you say, notability has to be proven. I've never ever participated in an AfD before when the primary argument is that it is "not established that the building is unremarkable". Sionk (talk) 10:37, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
- I appreciate your having that view in good faith, but IMO it is not ridiculous at all. I pointed out an extremely relevant and acceptable off-line source that is very likely to have coverage of the topic, a building/place. It makes sense to decide Keep based on just that. Also this article did not appear among the first edits of a newbie; the author, Dr. Blofield, actually has contributed to 74 Featured Articles and more than 173 Good Articles per their user page now, and was already very experienced back when xe started this article. Also it would be far better to post a question about the article at the author's Talk page, rather than opening an AFD. If one is using the AFD process to force development of the article (and/or identification of sources within the AFD) by the author or others, i.e. demanding that notability be "proven", that is wrong: WP:AFDISNOTFORCLEANUP.
- I hope you will understand that I mean this cordially, but, in the same spirit, one could say "it's not your job" to decide the topic of an article about a place created by an experienced editor fails to meet Wikipedia notability standards. One could say such an AFD nomination about a place is either going to waste multiple editors' time or possibly cause a valid topic to be deleted only by bad luck. Bad luck would be:
- 1) if no one far away (like me) happens to be interested and is successful (one can argue whether I was successful or not) in delving around in on-line records,
- 2) if the author happens not to be available, and
- 3) if no one else local with access to off-line material about the place, at local libraries, is available to defend the article.
- It is easy for all 3 elements of that bad luck to happen. And it is automatic that an AFD is going to consume the attention of multiple editors. But it is extremely rare for a very experienced editor to have made a mistake in assessing the notability of a place topic that they choose to write about. And if one does wonder whether the author has made a mistake, and in retrospect could see that the topic was not valid, it would be far better to just contact the author at their Talk page. Again, I do understand that some could have a different view. Where I am coming from is different. My view is informed from my experience especially with place articles mostly in the U.S., and my experience with AFD which I think is much too costly in terms of editors' attention (and also costly with its effect on authors ... less an issue for experienced authors, but still a mildly negative experience). --doncram 00:22, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks, but no thanks. I don't appreciate the lecture. I'm an experienced local editor too and I don't write articles about buildings in my area based on vague beliefs, but on at least some hard proof. Rather than try the "I'm a more experienced editor than you" personalisation, lets stick to the subject at hand. No-one, aboslutely no-one here has come up with one shred of hard evidence that this building is notable. Sionk (talk) 18:20, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
- I didn't mean to be patronizing. In the same way, I don't appreciate the lecture from you. On topic: given context, given one very relevant source identified but not obtained, and given the judgment of at least two editors (author and me) that there exists documentation to develop the article further, a reasonable person can conclude that, more likely than not, if the further research steps are taken, the notability of Portobello House will be conclusively established. You say it hasn't been proven, meaning 100% proven, or you simply are dismissing the identified two volumes of RCAHMW work. One volume is available to purchase for 10 Euros. We both appear to value our time poorly, that we don't take that step of further research which could resolve the issue (but might not). How about this: S and I agree to buy the RCAHMW volume for Dr. B, either of us paying upfront, based on a coin flip. Note Dr. B and wikipedia would benefit from Dr. B having that book. If it turns out that Dr. B finds "pretty good" evidence (i.e. material to develop the article that would seem pretty good to an uninvolved party), then S reimburses me if I paid or S absorbs the cost if S paid. If it turns out there's evidence pretty good evidence contrary to notability (i.e. it's pretty clear to uninvolved parties that the Portobello House ranks really far down in terms of notability of buildings in the area), then I absorb cost or reimburse S. If it's inbetween then the payer gets reimbursed for half the cost. Seriously I suggest we do that. Seriously I mean that AFDs like this implicitly value people's time at near-zero value. (By "AFDs like this", i mean: about places, where a local and experienced editor once judged the place notable and reiterates that later when asked to reconsider, rather than acknowledging a mistake.) Either way, right now we have to agree to disagree: I think the evidence presented here (informed opinions, identification of promising very relevant source, etc.) suggesting it is notable, you do not. :::::sincerely, --doncram 03:11, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
- The RCAHMW publication is a red herring. There's nothing anywhere to suggest this building would be covered in it ('Glamorgan' covers most of South Wales and Portobello House doesn't seem to be either a cottage or a farmhouse). Even you have said yourself, it is impossible to prove a negative i.e. that Portobello House is not notable. The point of an Afd is to provide conclusive, positive evidence that the subject is notable. Sionk (talk) 23:10, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

- Keep I live in the Vale of Glamorgan, and no, there's not plenty of notable hotels and country houses here. Not many at all. I'd say compared to some of the ones I've started it's not as notable and not listed, but I still believe it's a notable house on the western perimeter of the Vale. The main reason I believe is that historically it was a residence of notable landowners in the area, in fact I'm sure I've seen a Sheriffs of Glamorganshire list at it being cited as the seat. There should be material on this house in the Welsh library, those monuments books should have something on it. At worst a landmarks section in Merthyr Mawr Sand Dunes mentioning the house should suffice. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:47, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Per my comments above, I interpret your statement as a credible assertion that this topic is notable, by your judgment as an experienced Wiki-author and as an informed local. Per above, you are revisiting it and saying it was not an obvious mistake. Thanks. About the building not being listed, I surmise that it must have been modernized too much to remain eligible. I have imperfect understanding of the listing process in the U.K., but I understand buildings can be listed with or without owner's approval, unlike the corresponding process in the U.S. The building could have been notable in the past, as the "seat" of a sherriff or otherwise (and then covered in sources that continue to exist now), and "Notability is not temporary". It would be good, though, if you could plan to add more to this article, e.g. to get better pics whenever you might be nearby, or e.g. to resolve to get to a library, since this article has been questioned.

Clearly she was a character actor who played many small bit parts - old lady, librarian, nurse, maid, etc... but frankly, to make a living acting for 30+ years when she was cast as "older" from the outset is pretty impressive by itself. I expanded the article to address the "only reference is IMdb" concern you raised. Seems adequate to me. I'll keep digging around to see if I can find more. I'm finding this a rather interesting project. Montanabw(talk) 04:55, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
- First off, that's not a New York Times article, just its mirror of AllMovie (note the copyright at the bottom).

Quantity (lots of bit parts) doesn't equal quality/notability/satisfying IBDb,[6] all I can find that's not just a cast listing is one line about her in a 1937 Brooklyn Daily Eagle review of the Broadway play And Now Good-bye: "Hilda Plowright, as the clergyman's wife, turns in an excellent example of the woman who is completely exasperating without meaning to be anything but pleasant." Clarityfiend (talk) 07:29, 13 May 2015 (UTC)]
- Well, I don't know how many bit actors have as long a filmography or as many credits as she has, I'm finding her quite interesting. I don't know if anyone has accumulated such lists and I can't engage in OR or SYNTH to do so, but seems to me she's meeting a minimum threshold. Her librarian character in The Philadelphia Story is mentioned in a couple different books. I mean seriously, she does top Lawnchair Larry or some Cricket player in Manchester who played one season in 1979 or something. Where we are looking at people who could be forgotten by history yet really were rather remarkable, I think the wiki can handle the bandwidth of keeping this one.

I've thrown into the article a complete (complete, until it tails of into extraneous matters!) review of her in a title role (the review is long out of copyright).

- Keep Notability is not just about the amount of coverage you can find, but the quality of the information. I have searched on line and find numerous books that confirm the information that is now on the file. She had over 60 film credits, but those credits, while they might be for non-starring roles were with major stars and directors. Cary Grant and Joan Fontaine in "Suspicion" directed by Alfred Hitchcock; Norma Scherer, Rosalind Russell and Joan Crawford in the "Women" direction of George Cukor; Betty Davis and Claude Raines in "Now Voyager"; Rita Hayworth and Burt Lancaster in Separate Tables; Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn under the direction of George Cukor in "Philadelphia Story". Is it remotely logical she would repeatedly be hired to work with major stars if she was not skilled? Is it remotely logical that the likes of Hitchcock or Cukor, would hire her? The facts of her longevity in a notoriously fickle industry and that she has many, many credit with major figures speaks to her notability. Everyone is not a star, but stars would not exist without the other cast, unseen cameramen, editors, etc. that go to building the star's fame. Those contributions matter, IMO. At the very least, she meets GNG, multiple secondary sources confirm her longevity and skill. SusunW (talk) 01:08, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

I think that the main sources, secondary sources, legal links, other interesting facts and footnotes in this article is more than enough! I consider that the place to be this article on Wikipedia, this real person, he makes music, and facts about his achievements very much! He is also a very popular person in the world of electronic music! Look at the fact that in Ukraine it is in this area one of the finest! Also look at the fact that, in the article should not be too much complex information! And the average user, it will be understood what is at stake in this article! Look for other articles on electronic musicians that are on Wikipedia, and they do not have a "News" section, or "Book"! "Secondary sources that suggested they already added". Let's Take into account that the person is still alive and this article also will be filled with information on the extent of his achievements in life in the future! So, and on this I propose that would remove "Articles for deletion/Azotti (section)" This article was created by his fans and it's been said that there is no doubt that this person is important!

Article consists of two factoids from a single source that only contains passing mention of the article's topic. This is all that any one of us has been able to find out about this programming language Bon since 2004. I conclude that the topic is not notable and suggest redirecting to either B (programming language) or Ken Thompson. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 05:36, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep A very minor language that no-one is advocating for further use. However as it forms part of Ken Thompson's work and thus the predecessor history of C, it's significant in a historical sense. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:37, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- That's invoking WP:INHERIT. I haven't seen proof of the significance of the language. Ritchie in fact calls it "unrelated" to B and C. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 09:39, 23 May 2015 (UTC)]
- That's a rather pathetic Summoning Of The Mighty Allcaps, even though such is only to be expected at AfD. An article on Woofles, Ken Thompson's pet dog is INHERITed. A language that formed part of Thompson's corpus of work is notable because of its place in the corpus, not because it's coincidentally linked to Thompson. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:29, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- No, this is a correct invocation of a guideline. What do we know about this language, other than that Thompson designed it, wrote an unpublished memo about it, and then moved on to other projects? What makes it deserve a Wikipedia article, despite there being no sources to attest to its significance? QVVERTYVS (hm?) 13:34, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- Dennis Ritchie reckons it influenced B, which in turn... (you know the rest). Of the two of you, I'm believing him. Andy Dingley (talk) 14:34, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- Let's go over Ritchie's "Development of the C Language". Here's what it says: "Its [B's] name most probably represents a contraction of BCPL, though an alternate theory holds that it derives from Bon [Thompson 69], an unrelated language created by Thompson during the Multics days. Bon in turn was named either after his wife Bonnie, or (according to an encyclopedia quotation in its manual), after a religion whose rituals involve the murmuring of magic formulas." That's all Ritchie said about Bon, and the reference [Thompson 69] is to an "undated AT&T Bell Laboratories internal memorandum (ca. 1969)". QVVERTYVS (hm?) 15:18, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

- Delete - As said above, attempts have been made to fix the article and make it more inline with Wikipedia's standards, but there has been continuous resistance from the article's original creator/key contributor, though in the end he was the one who decided to nominate this article for deletion. The truth is this article is made entirely from fancruft and theories, is not formatted in an appropriate style, and lacked any references/sources beyond a vague image from Deviantart. The game series itself is notable, but an article listing its characters is not, plus finding relevant sources has proved difficult since the only genuine source of information related to the characters comes from the games themselves or their creator Scott Cawthon. As an alternative, the characters introduced in each individual game could be covered in the game articles under the plot section. Evilgidgit (talk) 11:50, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

There is also a general agreement on the talk page that this article be deleted or merged." Mz7 (talk) 04:07, 24 May 2015 (UTC)]
