  • Delete If the first reference were an article on Wikipedia I would call it a coat rack. It starts out talking about the park, then most of the very short article trumpets the virtues of the T-Mobile located there. The second ref shows that it exists. The third ref connects to its website. It seems some people are putting any old thing on Wikipedia. This organization is not noteworthy - the coverage is local because this is of regional concern. Also, sources other than those connected with the organization are needed. There has to be more coverage than it simply exists to be considered notable. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 04:30, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Searching GScholar for "UGC 10" finds about 150 hits. Many of those are false positives, but there are two papers [1], [2] that have some info about UGC 10. There is also the simbad entry UGC 10 A, which seems to be a synonym for UCG 10. These together aren't enough for notability, but that the galaxy exists, along with basic properties, is verifiable. --Mark viking (talk)

If it is a major term in critical theory, that should be fairly easy to prove. Perhaps you could provide more sources to show its relevance? Also, you assert that it is an "important, operating concept", but what makes it so important? I don't get that from the article itself. Of course, it was just created a few days ago, so perhaps it just needs a bit more time. I'm asking these questions before !voting here because I'm not sure how I feel about this AFD. I

The term is used by Sarah Schulman in "Israel and 'Pinkwashing,'" New York Times, Nov 22, 2011. Full article: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/23/opinion/pinkwashing-and-israels-use-of-gays-as-a-messaging-tool.html — there, she cites Puar: "What makes lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and their allies so susceptible to pinkwashing — and its corollary, the tendency among some white gay people to privilege their racial and religious identity, a phenomenon the theorist Jasbir K. Puar has called 'homonationalism' — is the emotional legacy of homophobia. Most gay people have experienced oppression in profound ways — in the family; in distorted representations in popular culture; in systematic legal inequality that has only just begun to relent. Increasing gay rights have caused some people of good will to mistakenly judge how advanced a country is by how it responds to homosexuality."
I could go on. It is not in widespread popular use, but it widely used in scholarship and appears in op-ed pieces in mainstream publications. This makes it a technical term in wide use by specialists (working esp. in political theory and LGBT studies), and available to the reader interested in related issues. Other technical terms with decent entries include performativity, posthuman and transhuman. Homonationalism shares some aspects of its profile with these terms, but it is in more popular use because it is so handy — thus its appearance in the Slate and New York Times op-eds. It is meant to describe the moment that LGBT gender/sexuality becomes absorbed into nationalist discourse, usually to signal a distinction from non-Western "ways of life." It is really important in LGBT studies because for so long, the inclusion of LGBT people within nationalist discourse was almost unthinkable. This has changed dramatically in the past twenty years. Hope this helps. Judyholliday (talk) 19:55, 14 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and clean up. Some of the references aren't really references – for example one seems to be an announcement of a conference on the topic, not research related to it. Some of the styling grates – string of seven footnotes on one sentence shouts "shotgun approach" to me. But at least three of the five references I read are legit. It is a neologism, but then so are Ashoroa, Sphingobium japonicum, and Anthe (moon). Academics like naming new social theories just as much as new natural discoveries. Cnilep (talk) 05:27, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's a useful term in use across a range of scholarship and within communities trying to understand, for example, how to navigate national response to the Orlando shooting — in which the vulnerability of LGBT people becomes a site for nationalist identification. There is a reason we are talking about the term right now. In any case words, at some point, were new. Words grow in meaning and importance in different ways — sometimes by common, wide use and sometimes by intense use within specific communities (academics, fans, technical workers etc.). Political pressures will mark some words, however, as less important than others: "homonationalism" grows from its use by people committed to thinking from queer-of-color-perspectives, thinking and working at the intersection of power dynamics re race, sex, and nation. Anyway, yes, at one point it was a neologism. At one point the word neologism was a neologism! Homonationalism is used by a large enough community which understands what it means that it is now a technical term of some importance, useful, in particular, for talking about pressing political issues in contemporary politics.

2016 Orlando nightclub shooting. There is a clear consensus here that we should not have a standalone article on this person. However a number of people advocating deletion have raised the possibility of content being merged from this article into the article about the shootings, and nobody has raised any real objection to this. Merging isn't possible if the article is deleted and the title is a plausible search term, so I am closing as Redirect to allow any merges at editorial discretion.

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

I'm not sure what the long-term notability is for this person. It is tragic that she was the youngest victim of the deadliest shooting in U.S. history, but her long-term notability seems to be in doubt, as many other victims of the

Orlando nightclub shooting have been similarly chronicled by newspapers. Even giving this a wide benefit of doubt, there only seem to be 138,000 results for Murray's name – which doesn't seem to be particularly indicative of notability. Kylo, Rey, & Finn Consortium (talk) 19:39, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply
]

@Epicgenius: I understand your doubts at to the "long term notability" of this person; however, I fail to see the long-term notability of biographies for people like Rachel Scott, the first victim of the Columbine shooting. Of course, she has a myriad of books written about her, but these books were all written by relatives and the books themselves are not particularly notable books. This is not to say your point is moot but I assumed that since articles like that exist based solely on the fact that one held a superlative title in the shooting (first, youngest) then this would be a reasonable article.
@Benmite: It turns out that Scott may or may not be notable. A case can be argued either way. However, I prefer to merge this article to the Orlando shootings article for now, unless more detailed sources about Murray come out. Kylo, Rey, & Finn Consortium (talk) 20:12, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

List of social liberal parties

A list of social liberal parties is already included in the main article on social liberalism, see Social liberalism#Active social liberal parties and organizations. This list is therefore redundant, or in the worst case, may include inconsistencies or contradictions to the other list. It creates unnecessary extra work to maintain both lists, keep them up to date and clean them from original research (always a problem with lists of this type). This list, unlike the one in the main article, does not cite a single reference, therefore fails WP:Verifiability and has to be suspected of original research. The article social liberalism is not too long, so there is no need to outsource the list of social liberal parties to an extra article. RJFF (talk) 12:35, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I noted more reasons than just fighting in the UFC. The subject has had significant coverage ESPN, Mirror, etc., has an established professional record (Sherdog), and has signed a multiple fight deal with one of the biggest MMA organizations in the world, Bellator MMA ([4]), all of which provide sufficient evidence of notability.

A PROD was challenged and re-prodded 3 times. I don't support the PROD, but it looks like the only way to resolve this will involve AfD.

The PROD rationale was this: "this page is no longer valid. Bond Aviation Group no longer exists and all the detail on this page is either incorrect or can be accessed from a better route. It's not correct to say it has become

Bond Offshore Helicopters." Andy Dingley (talk) 16:26, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply

@Flerg: - please comment

  • keep - If Bond Aviation Group has ceased or changed, then the article will need updating. That is not reason to delete it though. We still keep articles on historically notable buggy-whip manufacturers. I would also remind Flerg that once a PROD has been challenged, that aticle cannot be re-prodded.

I absolutely have come to hate it when editors add albums that in no way meet

WP:TOOSOON Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:38, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply

  • Keep IMO, Walter is being misleading. We don't have a "partial" track listing, we have a full one. It's available for anyone to see in the press release, and on the pre-order screen on iTunes. We also album cover, news coverage (including, but not limited to, Jesus Freak Hideout), promotion in the way of two official lyric video releases (one has almost 2 million views, the other just under 600,000). The album is even available for pre-ordering in online stores like the aforementioned iTunes, and the two released songs are available to listen to on Spotify. I contend this is not too soon, as Walter proposes. TrueCRaysball | #RaysUp 01:10, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I am not being misleading in any way. You have a listing of track names, but what are the lengths of those tracks? Who wrote those tracks? Also, what about the genres. Where did you pull them from? The one RS you have doesn't discuss the genre. The one at the iTunes Store is not a RS, but at least they know that "Christian" should be capitalized. I know the JFH press release (not a RS). I have seen all of the releases through the band's Facebook and Twitter feeds. None meet RS. Now, show us the significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. breaking that down: significant coverage means that there is a great deal written about the subject, not a mention of the songs; reliable sources means that the multiple sources are all known for good reporting on the subject; independent of the subject means they're not getting payola for promoting the band and they're not just republishing press releases to fill space. I'm sorry, but when I looked I found that there are none. That's why I initially redirected and then nominated. It will be notable. Possibly as soon as eight weeks from now, but we don't peer into
      WP:CRYSTAL balls, we only create content for currently notable subjects, and this album, as of the first week of June 2016, is not currently notable which is why I have nominated. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:51, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply

@Walter Görlitz you have a point i can read the reference article on billboard magazine [1] did not mention this very album ,,, so this source is not valid Samat lib (talk) 21:01, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

References

  • Comment. I agree that it is too soon to have an article on the album (and it would be great if people waited before creating such articles), but that doesn't automatically mean it should be deleted. If we have verifiable facts that are not already in the article on the band, the first option should be to merge to the article on the artist. If there's nothing appropriate to merge, then a redirect should be the next option to be considered. I see that this was redirected and reverted. With what we have now, I think a redirect would be appropriate, but with only 7 weeks to its release, it would probably be a waste of effort doing anything but leaving this and seeing what coverage emerges in the coming weeks. --Michig (talk) 06:51, 13 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Me too. I redirected and based on previous efforts, didn't bother to have an edit war over this. We need to stop allowing creation of album articles until they're notable and have admins lock redirects until they are notable, but they're not willing to do that.

Tediously this article has been revived after a previous AfD and a speedy deletion template has been removed by an experienced editor who should know better (though I'll admit the previous AfD did not attract a great deal of participation). The sources are entirely press releases, potted biographies on business/company websites and name checks online. There's no evidence of significant reliable news coverage about Fisher. I'd recommend it is re-redirected to Draper Fisher Jurvetson and prevented from being re-recreated. Sionk (talk) 04:24, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

List of college football stadium video boards

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

This used to be a list of the largest such boards; now it's just a list of all these boards--yes, TV screens in football stadiums. The topic itself strikes me as fairly trivial given that just about every stadium has one (we could also list bathrooms or elevators), and a list of them is even trivialer. The sourcing doesn't add to the notability of the subject of the article: it's mostly primary sourcing, linking the stadium's website or some such thing. This is nothing more than cruft, I'm afraid--though I am happy to see that Auburn is number one in something. Drmies (talk) 02:03, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article is completely promotional in tone and seems to be written by people with close connections.

  • Delete: It is not relevant that the organisation is no longer operating under this title, nor that its "Citizen Bridges International" successor appears to have minimal presence. However, in terms of the notability of the organisation, many of the given references are but passing mentions in local coverage. The most substantial seems to be the paragraph summary for Heartland International, among other organisations, in the "Planting International Seeds" bulletin article. That serves to verify, but I don't see it as the extent of substantial coverage needed for
