Griggs House

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

This is a house with lacking notability, with the only reliable sources being in passing mention related to The Blair Witch Project. At best a redirect to the article about the 1999 film. edtiorEهեইдအီးËეεઈדוארई電子ಇអ៊ី전자ഇī😎 23:22, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Griggs House has primary documentation that indicates it as a historic structure in the Maryland Historical Trust of Historic Properties - Record BA-1579, (Updated Feb 11 2016) representing early architecture and settlement of the town of Granite Maryland. It is secondly notable as a significant storyline feature in a movie of worldwide distribution and to a lesser degree notable in nationwide coverage for the conflict between state resources performing an unusual accelerated demolition as preservationists were in process of gathering resources. FlugKerl (talk) 18:37, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

First of all,
notability is not inherited. Second, the nationwide sources that were about this house were in relation to only the film and were published upon the film's 1999 distribution. Third, saying that a home has "primary documentation that indicates it as a historic structure in the Maryland Historical Trust of Historic Properties" doesn't automatically make the house notable. edtiorEهեইдအီးËეεઈדוארई電子ಇអ៊ី전자ഇī😎 21:37, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Keep - If the Maryland Historical Trust considers it notable, so should we and their report is extensive.[1] We are not the decider of notability but other organizations such as this that specialize in history, research and the historic significance of properties certainly is. It would still be notable if it had nothing to do with any film. --Oakshade (talk) 23:37, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

List of Formula One Grand Prix wins by Ayrton Senna

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

Not enough notability to justify having his wins as a dedicated stand alone list. This is a general purpose encyclopedia, not a F1 or Senna fan site. All his wins are already listed in his own article as well.T v x1 23:03, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The list provides easy navigability of Senna's wins, which are not there listed separately in the main article. He is very notable globally, and readers like me would want to be able to read up on his wins separately without having to individually pick it out from a dense article. This particular list features professional standard prose, has an engaging lead, is comprehensive, is easy to navigate, complies with the manual of style and seems stable. That, for me, is the

Keep the Senna's Grand Prix wins are extremely notable; whenever another driver approaches and passes his total it is reported as a significant achievement in the press Formula1.com, Fox Sports, Sky Sports for example. While Senna's win are listed in his article, that is only as part of his complete Formula 1 racing results, and does not give the level of detail of this article. As
WP:OTHERSTUFF is an argument to be avoided, but the presence of these articles demonstrates that the nominators point that "This is a general purpose encyclopedia, not a F1 or Senna fan site" is not valid, as the list follows a style already common on Wikipedia.

Keep Well-sourced list of wins of a highly regarded driver in the sport's history. Addressing the nominator's argument that his wins are already on his article, it is listed in a complete results block format. A reader only interested in his victories would not easily be able to make comparisons. A link to this list could easily be added to that section using the {{see also}} template. Twirly Pen (Speak ^up) 07:21, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment None of the above keep votes does actually attempt to address the actual issue whether the his list of wins as a group have enough notability in reliable mainstream sources, as outlined by
WP:LISTN. Yes Senna is very notable and yes the fact that he won 41 races is notable as well. But I have not seen provide clear evidence being provided from any of the keep voters that the identity of all his wins as a group receives enough notability in the mainstream reliable sources that they merit a standalone article in a general-purpose encyclopedia. Again this isn't a motorsport fansite. And remember that he's only the fifth all-time in number of Grands Prix wins. If really desired we could always incorporate a form of the list in his own article in a similar fashion to this. The claim that the results summary in his article doesn't allow an interested reader to easily find a compare his wins is nonsense. The wins are clearly highlighted by using the number one an by having a specific color. The wins stick out clearly from all the other results. T v x1 20:04, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Comment Hi

Reply I think you are misinterpreting
List of Grand Prix winners and List of Formula One driver records. A standalone list that does nothing but state where he won each of his 41 wins is therefore overkill. T v x1 17:28, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Thanks for explaining Tvx1. Let me clarify. I have never said that "deleting this article would eradicate all information on Senna's wins from wikipedia". On

You handily left out the following sentence of the guideline though: Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable. This clearly shows that all the items in the list don't need to pass
WP:GNG independently, but only the list of items have to as a group. All you have proven so far is that the number of wins he achieved is notable, not the set of which wins he achieved. T v x1 18:30, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply
]

Because as per guideline The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been, your reply above may well have been the closing statement of the administrator closing this discussion as a keep. Tvx1 as I feel we both are repeating the same points, I would now await the administrator's views or of other editors'. It was a great learning experience commenting here. And I have to thank you for that.

Merrimack politics of 2002

The article was created by a bot in 2009 based off of a Wikibooks article. Since that time, it has had a notability tag on the article for six years, and nothing has improved. Additionally, none of the people listed here are inherently notable, especially as this moderately-sized town in New Hampshire.

Bulgarian National Union – New Democracy

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

This article reads like a political campaign platform, not an encyclopedic article, completely unsourced. If this article is kept, it needs to be substantially rewritten or pared down to one paragraph.

Rewrite the lead and discard the rest. It's a fairly marginal party (less than 6000 votes in the 2014 elections) but its outrageous activities have received quite a bit of media coverage. Uanfala (talk) 01:49, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I was thinking about prodding this, but I found enough hits on Google News that it seemed easier to let someone else deal with it. Since we're here, I went back and did more thorough searches. They do have a bit a coverage, it's true – but it seems to be mostly trivial mentions as a part of neo-Nazi activity in Bulgaria. A sample of what I've found: [2] from
Sydney Morning Herald. There are a few more, but they're either even more trivial (names in a list of far-right parties), or they're syndicated AP content. I don't think there's really enough here, though I'm willing to reconsider. There are also some hits at Google Scholar, but I had a bit of trouble finding ones that weren't trivial mentions and gave up a bit quicker than usual. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:23, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

- Ehh, I guess the rewrite is fine. Bulgarian editors say there's coverage, and so there probably is. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 21:08, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I like Uanfala's suggestion to rewrite the lead and discard the propaganda which is likely a direct translation from the party website. The party is notable and is featured in national news in Bulgaria from time to time, mostly because of its extreme character rather than any significant public support. That international media have mentioned it is surprising to me, but it's an argument for keeping the article in some form nonetheless. — Toдor Boжinov — 08:26, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, if someone can write a sourced, neutral stub, then I guess that's fine. I did a few searches to find hits in Bulgaria, but my ability to do so and read them is obviously quite limited. Google Translate only takes you so far. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:07, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I cleaned it up some. The party appears to be notable enough by our standards, if only because their antics get them in the news. Can't figure out if they're really Nazis or fascists. Drmies (talk) 20:53, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That AfD was not a keep close because of notability, there were significant concerns that there were simply too many lists for a reasonable outcome to be achieved and the nomination was withdrawn. The AfD noted in the withdrawal achieved a slight consensus that such lists are notable when the player is the country's all time leading scorer of is significantly notable in their own right.

Delete - there is nothing inherently notable about scoring a goal at international level. This AfD achieved a slight consensus that players who are deemed "world-class" or who are their country's all time leading scorer are inherently notable for such lists. None of these players are.

If a term is synonymous with another one, there should be evidence for that synonym. Disambiguations don't use references, so the synonym should be cited in the article so we know there's evidence for it. "Bugi" isn't mentioned at either of those articles, so it shouldn't be mentioned in this disambiguation unless we can verify that, yes, "Bugi language" is another name for "Agob language" (which, from Kwamikagami's source, it seems to be a name for a village, not the language itself, but that's just my interpretation of it.)

Evidence of the alternative name should be contained in the target page – I agree with that! But the rationale behind dabmention is helping readers, right? The relevant sentence is "If the title is not mentioned on the other article, that article should not be linked to in the disambiguation page, since linking to it would not help readers find information about the sought topic." If the target article has the same scope as the dab entry then readers definitely will find information on their topic. Anyway, it's not rare for a name of a settlement to be used as the name of the language of its inhabitants. That's the "Bugi language" of Chalmer's article that kwami cited.

It was changed to a stub Black music is a term encompassing music produced or inspired by black people. In modern circles, this has come to usually refer to the great many music genres that have developed as a result of African American music. Over the years, it has become a list which seems to gleen the contents from other articles, but has no sourcing whatsoever. Not everybody in the countries listed are black, or consider themselves black, and a lot of the music listed is not exclusively black or has evolved exclusively from so-called "black" culture. — Maile (talk) 21:55, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lying Up a Nation: Race and Black Music

The Power of Black Music: Interpreting Its History from Africa to the United States

Cultural Codes: Makings of a Black Music Philosophy

Sounds Like London: 100 Years of Black Music in the Capital

Follow-up comment: I am changing my vote to delete per TJRC's comments below. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 22:25, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The article seems to be a combination of discussions of actually enforceable agreements, which is best handled in Contract; and the non-enforceable Memorandum of understanding, without the clarity of which of the two is being referring to in any particular part. Those two articles really handle everything in this article, which doesn't do a whole lot more than confuse the two.

The US Army Corps of Engineers article cited above is distinguishing between an unenforceable MOU and an actual agreement, or contract; a memo of agreement, if drafted to be enforceable, is an agreement. The Economic Times is drawing a distinction between an unenforceable MOU and an enforceable agreement; not between an MOU and an MOA. TJRC (talk) 20:38, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That was an excellent explanation, TJRC. I thought that MOUs and MOAs may be used differently within certain industry-specific circumstances, but I also recognize that no matter what you call an instrument, it can still have the power to bind parties if drafted correctly (or incorrectly, as the case may be). In any event, I am now convinced that there is no meaningful distinction between MOUs and MOAs, and I will change my vote accordingly.

As a purely administrative note, I'm concerned over what appears to have been a copy-paste fork of this into userspace. There was no reason to do that; I (and, I believe, any admin) would be happy to restore and userfy most deleted articles.

Keep, on the merits. The lengthy dispute over what to name the article only took place in the first place because this is an issue, and it is one that has received independent coverage in high-level reliable sources over a long period of time. The article is thoroughly sourced, and the specific topic is the specific focus of many of those sources. It is also a good outlet for the already lengthy Hillary Clinton article; rather than having this information crammed into a footnote and otherwise scattered throughout this article and a few others (like the Clinton e-mails article), keep it all in one place where those who are really interested in the subject can see it. bd2412 T 17:04, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We are reporting documented facts in a neutral - and uncensored - tone. This is no different than the fact that our article on Bill Clinton has said for years that "opponents sometimes referred to him as "Slick Willie", a nickname which was first applied to him in 1980 by Pine Bluff Commercial journalist Paul Greenberg"; or that our article on Richard Nixon says "During this campaign, Nixon was first called "Tricky Dick" by his opponents for his campaign tactics". bd2412 T 11:58, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is not the existence of reliable sources that give her various names. The issue is that the article relies on
WP:SYNTH-type original research to turn disparate sources into making this a "thing". The problem is not the lack of sources, per se it's the use of sources to support a stand alone article on this non-topic. --Jayron 32 16:14, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Because any of those facts are worth singling out for mention in Wikipedia at all? Christ on a stick, I've occasionally used my middle initial in formal contexts where the use of a middle initial might be expected, without that fact meaning anything that would be worth mentioning in an encyclopedia article if I qualified for one — and the unflattering nicknames that my bullies or enemies might have called me behind my back (or to my face) wouldn't be worthy of note either.

WP:BLP, "If an allegation or incident is noteworthy, relevant, and well documented" then it's valid encyclopedic content. Derogatory names for Clinton may be well-documented, and may be relevant to the scope of this article, but noteworthy?

I appreciate the removal of the derogatory names, thanks. The strongest argument for this article is that it would allow removal of some stuff from the main Hillary Clinton article, which is way too big (or "badly bloated" as I like to say). So, it seems to me that the main problem with this proposed article is that the scope is too narrow, and therefore would only allow a little bit of stuff to be removed from the main HRC article. I hope that some thought will be given to broadening this article's scope in some way (maybe "Personal characteristics of Hillary Clinton" or something like that). As it is, an article about her names alone just seems too narrow.Anythingyouwant (talk) 05:04, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. One, I don't think there is a problem needing fixing here. Longish notes are a feature of scholarly writing, and with WP's technology notes appear to the reader as mouse-over tooltips when reading the text – there is no need to click away and then click back and find your place in the text, as there is with a separate article. Two, I've looked at a bunch of "Names of ..." articles, and I find no precedent for this one. They are usually about scientific naming conventions, or different names for deities, or naming controversies based on national identities. I don't think a woman who has used different forms of her name after marriage – which is not that unusual – is really sufficient to create a new precedent. Three, the new "Nicknames" section is just an invitation for trouble, and its use of Edward Klein as a source is alarming. Klein is so vile that even many professional Hillary-haters have distanced themselves from him. Wasted Time R (talk) 12:21, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This narrative is explicitly described in the sources. Nothing is implied from sources that does not exist in them. For example, the Washington Post article says:

“ Clinton is also a woman who has fairly consistently dropped and reassumed a combination of her maiden and married names, as NPR put it. She's done so at times when it seemed politically prudent and maybe even personally meaningful. ”

bd2412 T 20:15, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Making her different from several million other women in the world...how, exactly? Or for that matter from the similar discussion that's followed Barack Obama, because he used to use his Indonesian stepfather's surname and/or shorten his first name to Barry, without occasioning a separate article just to cover that discussion? (One was tried. It got canned.) Bearcat (talk) 09:05, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with Bearcat. And artists often change names too – think of Prince (musician), who has a birth name, a stage name, an unpronounceable symbol, a formerly known as stage name, and a half-dozen aliases and pseudonyms, all of which has gotten more publicity than the HR/HRC/HC variations. That doesn't mean that having a separate Names of Prince (musician) article makes sense. The main biographical article is the natural place to describe any changes in the name of the biographical subject. Wasted Time R (talk) 14:46, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Nothing about this topic requires a standalone article as a separate thing from her main biography. A fair bit of it is pure trivia of no note whatsoever (sometimes used her middle initial in certain contexts? who hasn't, and why should we give a honk?), some of it was actually inappropriate until that crap got correctly stripped, and the little bit that's actually noteworthy — her use or non-use of Rodham — is already in the main article anyway. Bearcat (talk) 09:02, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is nothing but gobbledygook. There's no article titled Names of Bernie Saunders or Names of Donald Trump.

Delete - That you can say a lot about a particular detail of someone's life doesn't necessarily mean that the detail is notable -- it means that the person is very notable. There are any number of details about her life -- as with other celebrities' lives -- that one could write about, but, again, that there are sources about an aspect of someone's life doesn't necessarily mean it should have a stand-alone article. That the article is very long is not a strong argument to me in this case, as all that means is a very long section about her names is simply

Ridiculous is the kindest way to describe this article. Only in America would editors seriously think to spin-off a whole separate article noting that political opponents and lunatics had resorted to invoking a Hitler-based pun on someone's name or the fact they had a candidate had a different surname pre-marriage. Tony Blair's actual birth name is Anthony Charles Lynton Blair and sometimes political opponents called him "Bliar". You'd be laughed at if you spun-off an article about that. AusLondonder (talk) 16:18, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Please take a moment to actually read the article, then come back and give us a little for detail about how ridiculous it is to spin off a side article describing the instances and frequency with which a notable person has personally chosen to be known by so many different name variations, keeping in mind the size of the primary article.

@AusLondonder: Since almost all of this article is drawn directly from content already in Hillary Clinton (see the first two notes under Hillary Clinton#Notes, and other references throughout the article); the primary exceptions being the summary quote at the beginning, the use of longer quotes from the sources quoted, and the accurate and thoroughly sourced section on nicknames. Is this material, as already included in Hillary Clinton, absurd? Sexist? POV? If not, then what is it about setting it out in a separate article than makes it so? bd2412 T 16:50, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete per WTR, Shawn in Montreal, Cullen, Bearcat, Scjessey,and - I'm pleased to note, Anythingyouwant -among others. Many reasons: this is a classic POV magnet, trivia, sexist, and utterly unnecessary article. The main HRC BLP has long included a more than adequate treatment of this matter, appropriately centered in footnotes, and at an acceptable length. It is notable to include mention there, as has been for many years, because her name choices are of interest to readers and well sourced. That belongs in a biography. But it is not notable or needed to have a separate article in an encyclopedia devoted to it. There was no problem to be fixed. Tvoz/talk 22:22, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, BusterD for the thoughtful response! I'm on the fence myself. The MTV sources seem good, especially since they are primarily about her. However, the other sources don't lend to her passing GNG. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 18:13, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I took a second longer look, and I'm not seeing anything else. Using Newspapers.com, I did find one Asbury Park newspaper article which covers some of her 2008 cavorting (behind an additional paywall that even my own normal account can't access), but IMHO there's just not enough upon which to base a BLP. The Maddow transcript doesn't even mention the subject's name; the classicalite link is way tabloid. Aside from the MTV links which do directly detail the subject, I don't think there's enough to meet notability. The most inclusive thing I would agree to at this time is redirect or merge to List of The Howard Stern Show staff. Changing my assertion above; redirects are cheap. If the outcome of this process is that the article is deleted, I will redirect myself. BusterD (talk) 19:06, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:GNG being met here. RickinBaltimore (talk) 18:44, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Keep, tentatively pending some general discussion, or merge to a suitable list-article. Note there are more than 40 restaurants in the chain, as can be found by Google map search or by zooming out from the restaurant chain's locations webpage. And the chain is primarily French-speaking apparently, and coverage of it will be mostly in French language publications which tends to be less easy for us to find and interpret. I appreciate the nom's implied assertion that they looked for sources, but I expect that we just haven't found sources that do exist.

What is notability for restaurants is a big unsettled issue I believe, where I think a clear standard (like the standard allowing high schools where existence is documented) is needed. For example a restaurant chain having 20 or more branches should be presumed notable, I suggest.

Note many American restaurants with just one or two branches already have articles; I believe that non-American and especially non-English-speaking chains should have roughly equal standards. A chain of this size (>40) in the United States would have no problem being accepted as obviously notable.

In general the situation of new editors creating articles only to have them deleted by AFD as here, for vague reasons, is bad...it turns off potential good contributors. So there should be leeway given, if this is a new contributor (but I see that is not the case, this was created in 2010 by an editor who eventually was banned, in 2013).

Elsewhere (at Talk:List of pizza chains of the United States (where I mention this AFD), I propose a standard that a chain of 10 or more should generally be deemed notable for inclusion as an item on that list. The same reasoning applies here about separate article notability: a chain of more than 40 restaurants as here surely has coverage existing (though not yet presented), and this article should be kept.

If the decision were nonetheless going towards deletion, then merger/redirect to a suitable list-article that can include this chain as a list item would be better. That would be List of Canadian restaurant chains, which by the way includes an item with no footnote and just 12 outlets (Vern's Pizza), and an item with 25 outlets supported only by footnote to the chain's own webpage (Mr. Mike's). Actually merge/redirect to there would be okay by me as a quick resolution, leaving proof of sources until later, when the redirect could be restored to be an article with its edit history intact.

Delete I appreciate Doncram's logic, but we can't keep an article because we think there might be sources that we can't find. As of now, searching for sources has turned up nothing significant. As for inclusion in a list article, I don't think we should include something in a list that isn't notable enough for its own article.

Delete the article seems to be built from the four books listed in the bibliography section. But when I searched those books, Tucker's name only comes up, at most, four or five times in each of them, which I would characterize as a trivial mention. The only other mention I turned up online is the Times-Picayune article, which isn't about him, but is about Tucker's daughter. Tucker himself only merits a mention early on. I don't think there is anything in here to suggest any particular notability - he seems to have been a mildly successful businessman who was involved in the community - nor is there enough reliable sources to create a page.

Redirecting is likely the best outcome here, since that would make it easier to restore if more sources can be found. It seems like there should be more sources out there, but this is never a guarantee, especially as during this time period romances tended to get passed over for review and in-depth coverage because they were seen as "silly" or "frivolous". (This actually still happens nowadays...) As for the blurbs from other places, we'd have to see the review in question to make sure that the review is usable, because sometimes a blurb is just a promotional blurb written specifically for the book jacket. It looks unlikely in this case that it's just a blurb, but we still need to be able to verify this. Now when it comes to author reviews, that's tricky since we need to be able to make sure that there's no connection between the two (ie, friends or they share an agent or publisher). If we can show that there's no strong connection, then I'd consider her a RS in this situation, given the amount of awards and other accolades she's received and that the review is a review and not just a blurb.

McNaught's publisher for the Westmoreland Saga is Pocket (Simon and Schuster) while MacLean is Avon (HarperCollins). Showing that there's no strong connection is kinda proving a negative, but MacLean also credits McNaught (but not KOD) here, her list of faves are here, and a quick search of their names together doesn't throw up any flags. As an additional source, Romance: The History of a Genre from Dana Percec (a Dean at West University of Timișoara) includes a lot on KOD including (titter ye not) "Table 1-4: Features of the sex scenes in Judith McNaught's A Kingdom of Dreams". ^~~Hydronium^~Hydroxide^~(Talk)~~ 13:46, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Two other author sources: Elle Daniels (not NYT bestseller but published by Forever=Hachette), and this interview with NYT bestseller Tanya Anne Crosby who's primarily with Avon (authorsinterviews appears reliable for the purpose). ^~~Hydronium^~Hydroxide^~(Talk)~~ 14:09, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, Buffalo library lists a short review by the School Library Journal here - [6] - "Judith McNaught, now best known for her soft romantic suspense, created an iconic dynasty in the romance genre. While the Westmore-lands were featured in only three historicals, the family's impact in romance fan circles was huge. Set in the 15th century, Kingdom of Dreams .., the first book in the series, is filled with McNaught's trademark mix of lush romance and horrible conflict." so it may just squeak over (or to be more romantic, soar majestically:)) over the notablitiy line?

No,
WP:Before, and your accusation of systemic language bias is close to being offensive. Obviously I reviewed the few gbooks sources (they're mostly the same as those in the bibliography of the article) before nominating this and, as you can see, reported in my nomination the only remotely notable fact I found in them (a story in Sgt. Kirk). I didn't trouble to report, for example, that between the ages of 14 and 17 Carcupino participated as an avanguardista (a kind of Young Fascist) in a plastic modelling competition reserved for students of Istituti d'Arte and Accademie di Belle Arti. He appears to have been, as the Romanian source says, one of the Gruppo di Venezia, the (fairly large) group of draughtsmen around Hugo Pratt. So please, tell me this: which of the statements in the article are substantiated by the many sources you found? In how many of those sources did you find in-depth coverage of this person, his life and his work? Did you find the two references in the article at all useful in establishing his notability? Or would you care to revise your comment? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:11, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Not an accusation. Sorry that you took it as such. I simply have a concern that we are looking at English language sources, and that is a systemic bias. If you don't input the right name in the right language and format, it is easily possible we are missing sources that could develop the article. Indeed, there are lots of sources already listed, although I observe that the in line citations here are dismally bad (i.e., absence, poorly formatted). I note that when one clicks on "Books" in the listing there are several listed. Unfortunately, text seems largely unavailable. I am glad that you found one of several sources that mentioned him in a fascist connection. Whether that makes him notable I don't know.

Delete. I'm just not seeing the notability here. Even if we look at the credits list at Imdb, we don't see much evidence of "prominent" roles. Two of the three films mentioned in her Imdb biography don't have her listed on the posters for those films, so even the producers of those films didn't think her roles were significant. The one exception is for The Golden Veil, for which she is also credited as an associate producer (which suggests that she got her starring role because she helped finance the film). In any event, it isn't a notable film. In addition, there has been a multiple-issues banner on the article for almost four years. I see no plausible prospect for any improvement.

Keep, derogatory terms are not proscribed per se from having articles (compare Yid and Kraut). The term is used often enough in Indian newspapers that readers may be led to look it up on Wikipedia. The article has some encyclopaedic value, being more than a dicdef. It would not be so appropriate to cover this in Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh since it is used by other organistions as well; the article names Vishva Hindu Parishad as one, and the movement with which this term is associated, Hindutva, is (according to that article) the official ideology of the Bharatiya Janata Party.

Keep. Since we're going back to 2-year-old arguments, I guess I'll repeat what I said, as well. Without
Mark Jason Dominus or Audrey Tang. The previous AfD resulted in some good RSs that mentioned him and his work by name. It's easy to check the German media and find lots more commentary on his activities as a researcher and educator, for example the national daily Die Welt and the Lübecker Nachrichten both have articles on Tantau's educational program at Lubeck.

Delete. Most of the sources are just tangential references to a LaTeX package that he wrote. The package may be notable, but that doesn't make the creator notable when they are just mentioned as the author and nothing more. The sources of him being noted in the German media are just one-liners of him making a comment on a course. Nothing that contributes to the subject's own notability.
talk) 03:32, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply
]

That is incorrect. The articles are not "one-liners of him making a comment on a course". Rather, they are about educational programs of which he is the director that have won large funding grants, which is noteworthy in Germany. Coverage of such notable activities/results/developments render the person responsible for those things notable per se. (If you doubt this, then do a little thought experiment: WP:PROF c1, undoubtedly the most frequently-used notability criterion for academics, works on the principle that a person's work is noted/cited, not the person herself. In fact, in the vast majority of cases, i.e. article stubs, there is no standalone, published biographical material whatsoever of the person. Under your philosophy then, citations would still not be enough to demonstrate notability. But, in all cases where there is a sufficient "citation" collection of sources, the article is kept.) Further, Tantau's educational programs are covered in high-level secondary sources. For example, Die Welt is a national daily, akin to something like USA Today or WSJ in the USA. I can't help but to illustrate the difference in sources for Tantau versus some of the other obscure CS language bios mentioned above that have handily survived AfDs. Agricola44 (talk) 15:01, 10 February 2016 (UTC).[reply]

The distinction that needs to be made is whether the subject's work on the subject is notable, or if it's the subject's involvement in the work is notable. This subject is covered as being involved in some notable topics, but it is more passing mention rather than a focus on the subject. Until the notability shifts to the BLP itself, it's best to just mention Tantau where relevant under
talk) 17:12, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply
]
Again, it is not the nature of the mention here that matters. It is the fact that national-level secondary sources discuss educational programs implemented/led by Tantau in detail (explicitly acknowledging his role). These are gigantic "citations of his work", if you like. At the very least, these sources render him notable under GNG. Agricola44 (talk) 17:54, 10 February 2016 (UTC).[reply]
The sources would need to demonstrate what you claim. Right now, Tantau only gets tangential mention at best in the currently used sources, which is far for gigantic citations of his work.

Delete. For this area, the most accurate representation of his research publication record is the one in DBLP, [7], although it doesn't have any measure of impact such as citation counts. I stand by my delete in the previous AfD: citation record not yet strong enough for
WP:GNG-based notability for beamer. Re Xxanthippe's comment about this being a highly cited field: yes and no. The field is on the border between mathematics and computer science, and is much more highly cited than pure mathematics, but not quite as high as more systems-y computer science. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:59, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

I don't think there would be anything to move really. It would just mention the subject as the author, and that's really about it. That's why I'm looking at a delete instead of merge at least.

CBE is generally a sufficiently notable award.

Keep. It has been established over many AfDs that the CBE is sufficient to meet
WP:ANYBIO #1. If he was considered notable enough to be awarded a high honour by the British state then he is certainly notable enough for lowly old Wikipedia. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:44, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Before Anybio it does say "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included". At the moment its not even cited that he got his CBE. And the Gazette is proving intractable at moment else I'd put it there myself once I'd confirmed it. GraemeLeggett (talk) 15:46, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
He has an entry in Who's Who in which his CBE is listed. He was a prominent members of the National Farmers' Union (member of the Council from 1954, deputy president from 1959 to 1962 and treasurer from 1971 to 1981) and chairman of the Bacon Consultative Council (!) from 1957 to 1964.

Minimally sourced
WP:GNG, local chief of police is not a position that entitles a person to an inclusion freebie on Wikipedia just because they exist — and a single source doesn't get him over the bar. Delete, unless somebody can source him a lot better than this. Bearcat (talk) 02:53, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply

If the article were sourced and written properly, I'd have left this alone. But "chief of an exuburban police force near a major metropolitan city" is not, in and of itself, a claim of notability that entitles a person to a presumption of notability on an article that's written and sourced like this — it would be enough get a person into Wikipedia if the sourcing and substance were already there, but it's not enough to make him an automatic keep regardless of article quality.

Keep. Chief of a police department with over 800 officers policing a population of over 1 million. That meets my notability standards per common sense. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:41, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Common sense does not trump the lack of sufficient
WP:BLP. And at any rate, my definition of common sense (at least as it pertains to Wikipedia) includes being conscious of the fact that a Wikipedia article can be tilted far too strongly in a public relations/advertorial direction (as this is) and/or far too strongly in an attack-page direction (as this could very easily be rewritten to become, if it isn't generating enough "good editor" traffic to control for that), and that RS coverage is our only mechanism for keeping an article on its moorings. And my definition of common sense includes the fact that a deleted article can be recreated again in the future if somebody can do a better job than the deleted version. So my common sense doesn't permit anybody to keep an article that's written and sourced like this, because deleting this now is not making it impossible for somebody to do better in the future if better can be done.

Delete The game he is "known for" is barely notable in itself. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 23:24, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The games he created were very notable, and pushed the hardware in innovating and creative ways.

Keep A short look at google reveals: I found at least two printed publications mentioning Philip Price: Dungeons and Desktops: The History of Computer Role-Playing Games (Matt Barton,
talk) 08:48, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply
]

Let's let the secondary sources decide how independently notable Price is from the game itself. Dungeons & Desktops is a passing mention (nothing in depth that adds anything about the author's life, work, or importance, and certainly nothing we can use to write a full article), and the same for your other source. The Zzap source is about the game, not the developer. In fact all of the mentions are more about the game than the individual, and thus are better sources for the game than the individual. czar 12:51, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
In German Wikipedia a game author (=Philip Price) is relevant if at least one of his games is relevant. Clearly, the game Alternate Reality - The City is relevant (bestseller in the US) and so Philip Price is. In this case relevance has nothing to do with the quality of the sources on the subject. What says English Wikipedia about game authors? Besides that, the current article has sources - not the best though - but is has some. What's wrong with the interview about Price's life, for example? The article should be kept.

I fully understand what you mean, but I wanted to make clear that there is relevance just given by the mere existence of the famous game plus that the article has some sources. So, what would be significant coverage in _your_ opinion? What's wrong with that interview covering most of the person's life?

Sigcov, as a low bar subject to interpretation, is somewhere between three and five in-depth, reliable sources (as in enough content to write a substantial article on the subject).
self-published source about self guidelines, but we don't use it as an indicator of external notability (for obvious reasons—anyone can publish an interview on anyone). czar 23:17, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply

Delete. A programmer working on notable projects doesn't mean the programmer is notable. Sources listed mention Price in passing. --Soetermans. T / C 21:51, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
He wrote the entire game. To say that he "worked on the project" is like saying JK Rowling worked on Harry Potter. 24.206.189.220 (talk) 23:04, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Alternate Reality (series). As much as it pains me to say this, I can't establish notability for him. Alternate Reality: The City is a truly classic game, but any notability for Price would be inherited from the game. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:57, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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

This article flunks the notability test; there is no mention in reliable secondary sources at all. In addition, the award appears to be a long-dead project. Both of the links in References are dead; the award website (http://www.gannonaward.org/) appears to have been repurposed by an unrelated law firm; and the Twitter feed (https://twitter.com/gannonaward) has been abandoned for the last four years. Spectra239 (talk) 02:10, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Despite
WP:GNG. The award does not need to be the primary topic, but the mentions are clearly not significant enough even for that standard. There is no detailed information at all in RS, and there would be insufficient material to write a useful article without the award's background, founders, their motivations, the full list of recipients, etc. I can't see any article to redirect this to either.

If everything is in the Nick Bostrom context, maybe redirect to the Nick Bostrom article? Spectra239 (talk) 04:32, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The award is not mentioned in his article though (and probably shouldn't). There seem to be a few more Gannon Awards such as the Robert A. Gannon Award for Poetry and the Archbishop John Mark Gannon Award, so it may be confusing to redirect this page to Bostrom. Eugene R. Gannon Award for the Continued Pursuit of Human Advancement and Eugene R. Gannon Award exist as redirects to this article, and could be redirected to Nick Bostrom even if it is decided that this article should be deleted. Gannon Award is also a redirect to this article, and may have to be deleted if this article is deleted. Gap9551 (talk) 05:20, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
