  • Comment: This has been explained to you more than once, and I can't help it
    if you're not listening. Firstly, NHOCKEY does not, and never has, accorded presumptive notability to playing for a national team; Criterion #6 states "Played on a senior national team for the World Championship, in the highest pool the IIHF maintained in any given year." The Turkish women's team has never played for the World Championship.

    Secondly -- and this has been explained to you as well -- Criterion #2 refers to two specific periods in hockey history: the 19th century pre-professional Canadian leagues, and the Cold War era where the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia required their players to play in domestic amateur-only leagues.

    Finally -- and this likewise has been explained to you -- the reason that women's leagues aren't listed in NHOCKEY/LA is that nowhere in the world does women's hockey receive enough coverage to be able to declare every player who's ever played in such a league presumptively notable, and individual players must rise and fall with the GNG; it's unfortunate, but the world has neither asked you nor me what it's supposed to consider worthy of note. Would you like to propound a valid ground upon which to keep? Ravenswing 05:20, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

I'd agree with you if that were the only criteria we were using. I'm saying that after we've exhausted English sourcing and still can't agree, that it's one more argument tipping the scales against notability. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 21:05, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not a suitable topic for an article. I proposed it for deletion when it was just one method; it’s been expanded since but not in a good way. It’s even clearer it’s not on a single topic, or at least not one we don’t already have articles on, such as Orthogonal matrix and Rotation matrix.

Hmm, except that article is CC 4.0 and is cited at the bottom, so I'm not 100% sure... I should also note that both this article and that one are probably by the same person. Smmurphy(Talk) 16:45, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. The version I proposed for deletion (linked above or check the history) contained just one method, the one in that paper, and normally we do not have articles on methods unless they are especially notable, which this clearly was not. Also the article’s creator is the same as the author of that paper, based on their name and their focus on this one article. Since then they’ve added more methods, so it is more on methods for orthogonal matrices, but unfortunately we already have an article on such matrices, which covers such methods in an appropriate way.--JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 17:34, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I believe this article is OK, after I rewrote the piece. It was so clearly a resume cut and pasted into WP. Someone needs to take the URLS and make them into real citations. The original was really lazy work. I have no interest in doing the same for RRE Ventures. The author of that article is user:Jdriv, who I believe is the selfsame James D.

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen
is a major chain and Bachelder ran it for ten years. Business writers tend to judge things by the numbers and the numbers were phenomenal, so their reviews tend to reflect that bias. It sounds like you are saying that if the sources are positive, the subject must be deleted because otherwise it would be promotional. If we can find negative or just skeptical sources, their opinions should also be included here, assuming that they meet the source requirements and biographies policies.
Bachelder was previously president of
New York Times and this too should probably be represented in some form. Again, there are dozens of pieces in well-known outlets which have not yet been used here. It sounds like you haven't read anything but are just saying that you don't like it.South by southwest (talk) 20:38, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

I am not nominating this for deletion on the basis of notability, which is a guideline. I am nominating it for deletion based on our
WP:N). Your response here shows that you are on Wikipedia with the intent of promoting the subject, and further strengthens the case for deletion. TonyBallioni (talk) 20:46, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

Tony, I responded here because you asked me to. You also asked me to post to the discussion page of the article. I did, but you never replied. It's not clear how anything in
Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen Inc.
because the "orphaned" banner asked people to do this.
If you feel that the coverage of Bachelder in the sources referenced is unduly positive, it seems to me that the right solution is to find sources which are more critical to balance them out. I have already suggested one vein of further research, about her failed stint as president of KFC. Perhaps you can think of another. Or maybe you can write something yourself and get it published, then we can include a summary of your criticisms and attribute them to you. Any of these would seem more constructive than deleting well-referenced material about a person who very easily meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion.South by southwest (talk) 06:35, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's a list of all Indonesian football transfers from this year. That is a very well-defined set and is in no way indiscriminate. ]
To elaborate further, here is the full text of INDISCRIMINATE:
Excessive listings of unexplained statistics. Statistics that lack context or explanation can reduce readability and may be confusing; accordingly, statistics should be placed in tables to enhance readability, and articles with statistics should include explanatory text providing context. Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article. (e.g., statistics from the main article United States presidential election, 2012 have been moved to a related article Nationwide opinion polling for the United States presidential election, 2012).
"Unexplained statistics". Not only is the list not of statistics but instead of events, proper context is given to the items of the list.  Done
"Accordingly, statistics should be placed in tables to enhance readability". The article does this.  Done
"Articles with statistics should include explanatory text providing context". There certainly should be more than one sentence of context, but that's not a deletion issue, that's a "fix it" issue. Anyway, the bare minimum is established and should be improved upon.  In progress (I would do this myself, except that I know almost nothing about football and would be likely to make a factual mistake)
"Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article." This is exactly what this article does. To avoid the main article on Liga 1 being clogged with lengthy lists of transfers, the lists are instead located on this separate page.  Done
I'm really not sure what you're seeing here. And once again, you're completely ignoring the fact that this page lists events, not statistics. ]

  • Comment: ... which satisfies no notability criteria; NHOCKEY does not, nor ever has, confer presumptive notability to people who simply have belonged to national teams. Would you like to advocate a legitimate criterion to keep? Ravenswing 14:07, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Yosemiter: Do you think she should emigrate? Narky Blert (talk) 18:25, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@
list of known GNG leagues for player notability). #2 specifically refers to a time when players could not play for a professional or higher level league at all, primarily when there were no professional leagues anywhere (pre-NHL) and Eastern Bloc "amateur" leagues (they were amateur by strict definition only because the government prevented them from being professional or emigrating). In this case, there is nothing barring from emigrating if she really wanted to try to make a NWHL team (which also has no inherent notability for players). But since NHOCKEY does not really apply to women's leagues, then GNG is the only applicable guideline and you can read my previous analysis of the sources found in the above comments. Yosemiter (talk) 18:45, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply
]
@]
@Narky Blert: That seems a stretch as one of the primary authors of NHOCKEY is User:Ravenswing. Considering NHOCKEY is governed and written by the ice hockey wikiproject, do you think that we haven't done some research into it before making it a guideline? The hardest part about the guideline (which is still subject to GNG, even if a player meets the SNG, they can be deleted for not meeting the GNG) is the phrasing. How do you propose we write #2 with the intent of my above paragraph? (Feel free to comment at this discussion were we are currently looking at removing entirely.) Yosemiter (talk) 19:08, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not only tempted to suggest that you're making up your own idiosyncratic interpretation of what you want the criterion to say as opposed to what it really does say, I'm giving in to that temptation. As it happens, Yosemiter is right. I'm the author of the NHOCKEY criteria, and that's exactly what Criterion #2 was intended to address. Further, no level of women's hockey is supported by NHOCKEY, as has been stated exhaustively in many places and many discussions, for the unfortunate reason that nowhere in the world does any level of women's hockey receive enough coverage so as to presumptively declare every female hockey player notable. There is one exception, and one exception alone, which are women hockey players competing in the Olympic Games (that being covered under ]
To back up Ravenswing and Yosemiter, both of whom spend an awful lot of time on the sport and checking into references, the critereon says nothing about "top level in a nation" at all. Perhaps other sport guidelines do, the hockey guideline is not here to be fair or represent equality, it is here to represent the expectation for notability. I don't understand how it could be wikilawyering for someone to try to explain what was misunderstood to you.]
I'd agree with you if that were the only criteria we were using. I'm saying that after we've exhausted English sourcing and still can't agree, that it's one more argument tipping the scales against notability. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 21:06, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: It is a longstanding criterion that quotes from a subject (especially in a large article full of quotes from several players) cannot be used to support the notability of a subject. I'm not sure what notability criteria is satisfied by "context," but assuredly neither the GNG nor NHOCKEY are. Ravenswing 05:24, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pretty sure I covered that source already with "Number 3 is a interview with what appears to be her entire team, she is quoted three times (two of which are one sentence responses) and lacks the depth of coverage needed for a GNG-worthy source as she is not the subject." (The rough translation of the third is "Does not support the family and therefore has difficulties? - Kubra Dadaşoğlu: I am Ilıcalı. A district that is a bit backward from the point of view of the Ilıca. My parents were the people who put the sport back. Yeliz Yüksel, my teacher of this physical education teacher, brought me. A teacher accepted my family that I would be in. But my parents had a little trouble because our workouts were over at the end of the day. 14 kilometers between our home and the gym. It takes about 45 minutes by bus. We can not find a bus every hour." Enough of a translation to get the gist of the content and context.) @Hmlarson: care to explain how this is significant coverage? (Not to mention GNG needs multiple.) Yosemiter (talk) 13:32, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: This has been explained to you more than once, and I can't help it
    if you're not listening. Firstly, NHOCKEY does not, and never has, accorded presumptive notability to playing for a national team; Criterion #6 states "Played on a senior national team for the World Championship, in the highest pool the IIHF maintained in any given year." The Turkish women's team has never played for the World Championship.

    Secondly -- and this has been explained to you as well -- Criterion #2 refers to two specific periods in hockey history: the 19th century pre-professional Canadian leagues, and the Cold War era where the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia required their players to play in domestic amateur-only leagues.

    Finally -- and this likewise has been explained to you -- the reason that women's leagues aren't listed in NHOCKEY/LA is that nowhere in the world does women's hockey receive enough coverage to be able to declare every player who's ever played in such a league presumptively notable, and individual players must rise and fall with the GNG. Would you like to propound a valid ground upon which to keep? Ravenswing 05:18, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

I can find no sources to indicate that this camp passes the

WP:GNG. In terms of news articles, I've only found a local source that's more about Paul Bunyan than Camp Tyler and a local blog
from an organization that gave a grant to the camp. Not GNG material.

There is a book that mentions Camp Tyler, but upon inspection, the book's information about Camp Tyler is almost 100% identical to our article, verbatim. The book was published in 2011, while our article was created in 2008, so I believe this is not a copyvio on our part but an unattributed Wikipedia import on theirs. Since the information is a copy of a Wikipedia article, it doesn't qualify as a GNG source. ♠PMC(talk) 03:52, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Benito Juárez (Martinez)

Fails GNG. Except for a couple of primary sources, the only other thing I found was a brief mention in a guide book [26]. Insufficient coverage. MB 19:32, 20 July 2017 (UTC) MB 19:32, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I think this could be a short but helpful article. I went ahead and added the Smithsonian Institution link, plus two City of Houston sources. I also found this book source which describes a full-length statue of Juárez by Martinez. More research is needed here to confirm this is the same artists. If so, the Wikipedia article needs to be updated accordingly, describing both works in separate cities. I am looking for additional sources as well, though I hesitate to spend too much time expanding the article in the immediate future if deletion is a possibility (catch 22, here). ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:04, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This source says, "The 16-foot tall statue of Benito Pablo Juárez was a gift to the city by the counsel general of Mexico in February of 1999. The statue was created by Julian Martinez, and is a replacement for the bust gifted by the Mexican President in 1977." Interesting that the statue replaces a bust, perhaps similar to the one in Houston. Again, there is more to this story, and more research is needed. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:07, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, seems there are 3 works here: the bust in Chicago, which has been replaced by a full-length statue, plus the bust in Houston. These three works can also be described here, and with some additional research and expansion, I believe this could make a nice addition to the encyclopedia. I've quickly added some content, images, and inline citations to help establish notability, but I'm still hesitant to spend too much time saving this article just to avoid deletion. I'm working on a few other articles presently, but I'd love to revisit this at a later date. In the meantime, I'll add the WikiProject Chicago and Illinois banners to the talk page, and keep my fingers crossed editors help identify additional sources and keep this stub.

  • With only listings and no reliable, secondary source coverage, this topic is better off merged or deleted than standalone. Also those Commons images should be transferred to enwp as fair use before they're deleted—the sculpture has every indication of being under copyright. I am no longer watching this page—ping if you'd like a response czar 16:07, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • So you've searched newspaper archives to determine there's no secondary coverage? If not, I wouldn't assume it does not exist. Yes, the image of the sculpture should probably be moved from Commons to ENWP as fair use (not sure if there's a tool for this?), but I think the images of the plaque and park should be fine, no? ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:38, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • This reminds me of
    Donald Trump's handshakes. It's a POV fork created for the benefit of a particular US political viewpoint. Much though I feel for US voters who had to hold their noses and choose between those two ridiculous presidential candidates, we do need to rid our encyclopaedia of these politically-motivated so-called "articles". If it's important then it belongs in Hillary Clinton email controversy and if it isn't then it needs deleting. In neither case is this article justified. Transwiki to Conservapedia if they want it, then delete.—S Marshall T/C 22:20, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

  • redirect to Hillary Clinton email controversy. I edited the article to remove the worst of the POV language, quotes, and structure to see if there was a standalone article there but the article creator undid all that. However, even the version I ended up with is undue weight for such a small part of the email controversy. Although sources do exist, they are far from "massive". The meeting itself was pretty much a nonevent as For Mr. Clinton, who travels frequently by private jet, such airport socializing is common.[39] There is no international coverage of the meeting, (as there was for Trump's handshakes) and there are no mainstream sources discussing the alleged coverup, which indicates that this subject should not be forked. If there actually was some coverup, an international mainstream reliable source would cover it. Transwiki it to Conservapaedia, or not, but this article should not be standalone on WP. Ca2james (talk) 22:59, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:N - The absence of sources or citations in an article (as distinct from the non-existence of sources) does not indicate that a subject is not notable. Perhaps you forgot, the article itself is about collusion between the DOJ and the MSM. Do you expect them to incriminate themselves? It's under investigation, the same way the 20 minute
Trump_campaign–Russian_meeting is under investigation, and has far less importance than the DOJ colluding with and writing the talking points they want MSM to report. You might want to read those emails. Atsme📞📧 00:08, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

Yep, they've removed alot of essential information from that article as with this one, information that our readers need. Anyway, there's a comment by Trump Jr. in the Purpose section "such a nothing... a wasted 20 minutes".'Atsme📞📧 03:28, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Ah! Okay, a flippant and irritated denial type remark when questioned by Hannity. As a child I made that type of remark when caught redhanded. Childish naiveté thinks that self-deprecation will be taken seriously as meaning "less guilty". Adults know better. -- ]
The only sources discussing alleged collusion are the ACLJ and some right-wing sources. This "story" hasn't been picked up by mainstream media and therefore isn't notable. It isn't enough that the ACLJ (run by Trump's lawyer) claims collusion; reliable sources and other mainstream media has to talk about them doing it. And that's not happening. The emails themselves are irrelevant because what matters is how reliable sources are interpreting them. Ca2james (talk) 01:24, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Atsme, you attest to things such as "the article itself is about collusion between the DOJ and the MSM" and "the DOJ colluding with and writing the talking points they want MSM to report", which seems to indicate a point-of-view (and a fringe one at that) is driving the article, rather than ]
TheValeyard, I think you misunderstood. I was explaining that the article isn't about Clinton emails - the focus was going to be on the 400+ documents released by the DOJ under the FOIA. In those documents are a "flurry" of emails between DOJ OPA staffers and MSM. Bill Clinton boarding Lynch's private plane isn't the focus of this article, and neither is Hillary Clinton. The DOJ is not supposed to be political and they also aren't supposed to be writing/approving/reviewing articles for publication in WaPo or the Times. Investigative reporters are supposed to find out what's going on, not just accept and get approval of their articles from the DOJ before publication. It is clearly a stand alone article (if I can ever back to editing it without disruption) and it certainly does not belong merged with anything related to Hillary Clinton because that is not the focus. Perhaps changing the name of the article would do the trick. Atsme📞📧 22:58, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but Hillary Clinton was not involved in the emails. Your redirects are inappropriate. You might to read the article before you request a redirect. It's about Bill Clinton and Lynch on the tarmac, not Hillary. Atsme📞📧 02:49, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Er, are you feeling ok? You wrote the article, which is about the conspiracy theories surrounding the Clinton-Lynch meeting, the theory being that Bill exerted undue influence on Lynch to ease up on the Hillary e-mail scandal investigation. Whether we look at your somewhat biased version or the cleaned-up one, the gist of both versions is squarely and completely about Hillary's emails. TheValeyard (talk) 02:56, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Atsme: Your snark is not only unhelpful, but inapt. The only reason why the meeting between Bill Clinton and the AG was at all noteworthy was because the DOJ was investigating the Clinton email controversy at the time. That and the accompanying hysteria/conspiracizing was the reason for the news coverage that this "tarmac meeting" got. Neutralitytalk 02:57, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It wasn't intended as snark. I created this article 2 days ago, and I was still in the process of expanding it when an editor who I have a not so pleasant history with decided to show up here and AfD it. We usually wait at least 5 days before we do anything to a new article at NPP. But I guess I've ruffled some feathers over at Taylor because they're having a bit of trouble understanding my proposal as it relates to
WP:LABEL, and how easy it would be to make it compliant with a simple inline text attribution. So now my work here is under attack as evidenced by this diff. confused face icon Just curious...is that why you're here now, Neutrality, or is it just a coincidence? Glad your here! When I responded to you, I thought the original version of the article was still up there which explains what I'm talking about when I say it does not have anything to do with Clinton's emails. All of that essential information was removed, apparently in retaliation of the RfC I called at Taylor per the diff. Here is the version I was working on before the disruptive editors showed up and started reverting large blocks of text for no reason. See the section Emails and documents released by DOJ. There is a lot more information that needs to go into this article - I was actually working on it when the disruption began. Just stating facts, and it's hard to make disruptive events not sound snarky, especially considering the work I've put in it. Atsme📞📧 03:49, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

Please, I dont even know how this good faith came. I just want this article to stay here; Im not being rude, just polietely asking that do not delete this article, don't take it personally like I'm saying anything against you; I'm not. This is not bad faith, I just misunderstood what you were trying to say. Trust me, I'm a very polite person. Read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Assume_the_assumption_of_good_faith#What_.22Bad_Faith.22_Is_NOT P.S: I did ask help from the admins of MooMoo.io discord, I hope they'll do something.

Assuming bad faith does not mean being impolite, it means thinking that other editors are trying to sabotage you for unjust reasons. As if asking me not to delete would somehow make the big bad editor stand down. I am not an admin so I wouldn't actually be deleting anything, I am just pointing out the article for being non-notable, which is something that is governed by a very public set of rules that anyone can read indepth.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 13:18, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A game with 6000+ players daily isn't notable, we do have unimportant stubs on wikipedia, don't we? Besides the source you gave me is in English not Spanish. Or then tell me, how many players should it have to be notable? It has a google app, major gaming websites have it, whats more needed?

Hello. This article has a long history. This is the third AfD, but given that it is about a young artist with a developing career, that is not necessarily shocking. More alarming is that a Draft:Kacey_Khaliel ([40]) was created in August 2016, declined in August, October and December 2016, and then in April 2017 a different user copied/pasted the content in Draft:Zairyus_Anthony_Palani ([41]) before moving the page to Kacey Khaliel.

Looking at the sources in the article, the only one that is centered on the topic is this: [42]. The rest is song credits and passing mentions.

In the section on reception the very same article is used for three quotes with a footnote each, as if Publishers Weekly wrote three different articles on that website, when in fact it was just one by Lynn Andriani. Casual and trivial as it is, that is even the best source for the article.
  • Leaf, Lizzie T. (December 2013), "New York Journal of Books Interview – Behind the Scenes", The Booklover Magazine, Night Owl Reviews. When Lizzie T. Leaf, a writer of paranormal and historical romance, published her interview with the NYJB, she had aleady been a reviewer for that site.[43] That interview appeared in the apparently self-published Booklover Magazine, hosted by Night Owl Reviews, a network of web sites focusing on book reviews. Most of the information sourced to that interview comes directly from the NYJB itself.
  • Yumul, Rich (August 27, 2015), "Case Study: New York Journal of Books grows their website with Drupal", Sagetree. The article skips over the fact that Sagetree is Richard Yumul's company and rebuilt the NYJB website with Drupal. That's what Mr. Yumul described in his "case study". It's an obvious piece of advertisement and as a customer of Sagetree Mr. Sturtz is quick to attest: “I am happy to be a reference for every single client who needs one. . . . For me, Sagetree is the Holy Grail." To use that piece throughout the article, even in the lead and in the section on reception, all the while obfuscating the business connections between Sagetree and the NYJB, is concerning.

The same is true with the quote by Writing Children's Books for Dummies in the lead and in the section on Reception. The author is Lisa Rojany, who is the publisher and editor in chief of the NYJB. That's not "reception", but marketing.

Many more references are to the NYJB website itself, mainly a listing of its more notable reviewers. The other referenced articles mention the NYJB only somewhat casually.

In sum, I think there are two issues to be sorted out first, namely

WP:WEBCRIT. It has not been shown that the content of the NYJB itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself, and notability is not inherited from notable reviewers. I did a GA review of this article about a week ago in which I pointed out these problems. Since then no further sources have been added, so I believe there are none. --Assayer (talk) 22:59, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

I am adding a comment on behalf of New York Journal of Books. Sorry I know nothing about coding for Wikipedia. A few points:

And so, while we do not believe that current article on NYJB should remain in its current form, we do believe that it would be unfortunate to simply eliminate us from Wikipedia, especially as we are about to become even more dominant than we have been as an online review. A short article that can be expanded in coming months seems to me to be a sensible solution. Also, as one editor noted, we are cited across wikipedia - something we know because this generates traffic to our website and a scaled down factual version would avoid disruption and appearance of contradiction as we are considered a valid source for so many other articles.

Thanks for considering all if the above. I hope you all hear that we believe there is value in a full Wikipedia article, but one that is accurate and up to date. And so I hope that the short article can be restored and then updated as more info becomes available online.

On the other hand, reviews in New York Journal of Books are cited by a fair number of independent journalists and academics, so as a Wikipedia reader, I'd like to find some independent information about the site, even if not a full article's worth. Could it be covered in a paragraph or three of a broader topic? --Worldbruce (talk) 02:12, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Worldbruce, I don't see a suitable redirect target, else that would have been my recommendation. The pub has no notable parent topic. For what it's worth, we have plenty of reliable sources that do not link their publication's name. (In this publication's case, there are not many citations on WP, and as linked in the discussion above, I don't think they should have been cited in the first place.) czar 16:54, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Most citing of any book review is with reference to individual reviews, not an article about the review.
Seems rather than remove a highly cited review, is simple to revise to a couple of paragraphs with the PW article at least talking about facts around founding, executives, founding book reviews mission. Could also note the numerous reviewers who have articles on Wikipedia that are reviewers for this review. It says something that so many notable people review with New York Journal of Books.
Separately, Google has NOT been attaching value for links from Wikipedia to other websites for some years. This is partly because organic validity of links is doubted (in light of open access) and because a certain portion of articles are deleted, so that while Wikipedia's prominence is unquestioned, its reliability score for Google purposes has suffered.
Easiest solution is to remove and then add back later. Best solution is a very brief article like the factual one that previously existed.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki4014 (talkcontribs) 17:47, 13 August 2017 (UTC) Wiki4014 (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
  • Comment I think it is worthwhile to preserve a Difflink to the original statement by Wiki4014. It is true that links from Wikipedia to other websites have become less important for search engine rankings, not at least because Wikipedia employs the nofollow attribute on all external links since 2007. But as a trusted website Wikipedia is still very important for SEO and content marketing. As a minimum the NYJB gains traffic when their reviews are hyperlinked to from Wikipedia articles. Since there are so few independent sources that attest to the quality of the NYJB, I find it concerning that people seem to use and refer to its reviews so often apparently without asking questions about it and its reviewing policies. Because of the lack of independent sources, Wikipedia cannot provide much background information on the NYJB and it should not pretend to be able to do so. I did a backlink check and did not find many news outlets and independent websites, but many publishers and authors who use NYJB reviews of their publications as a reference. Wikipedians are most likely atracted to it, because the NYJB is easily available online. In contrast to the NYJB, a simple google search turns up independent sources dealing with the LA Review of Books, which claims to be "a nonprofit, multimedia literary and cultural arts magazine" and thus seems to follow a different approach than the NYJB. The San Francisco Review of Books was a printed periodical which ceased publication 20 years ago. I assume that the frequent allusions to it are actually to the San Francisco Book Review. While I agree that articles on other book review magazines whose notability for Wikipedia may be questionable do exist, that does not really help the discussion on the NYJB. I do not see much reliable sources that could be used to write an article, all the more since the existing sources are allegedly dated and therefore inaccurate. Notability is demonstrated through independent, reliable sources. It is not inherited from the reviewers writing for the NYJB. --Assayer (talk) 01:15, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment Really there are two issues emerging here, firstly whether this article is notable (which it is, two references is enough and having notable reviewers gives some inherent notability); and secondly whether the sources justify a b-class article (which they don't, there aren't enough sources to support most the information in this article.) so this article fails ]
Assuming that "two references" were indeed "enough", which I don't, I can only come up with one reference (Adriani) being somewhat independent from the subject. Which one is the second? There is no such thing like "inherent" or "inherited notability". See
WP:WEB: Web content is not notable merely because a notable person, business, or event was associated with it. If the web content itself did not receive notice, then the web content is not notable. Maybe an article on book reviewing in the age of the internet would make sense, but such an article does not exist.--Assayer (talk) 17:35, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply

Comment Not sure why comments seem to indicate that NYJB is advocating for preservation of this article. The article is highly problematic in multiple ways, and if there was not this group decision we'd have gone through the general contacts to ask for this to be rolled back to old brief several sentence, thinly, but correctly sourced article.

What can we do to make this bad article go away and get back old one that is grammatical and that one no one can quibble about? By tomorrow if not sooner.

Separately, within next month a major announcement will be forthcoming to publishing industry and there will be coverage. Might serve for some expansion of original article, but nothing like length of current albatross if properly rendered. Or not. Wikipedia is not part of our strategic plans. We just don't want this absurdly flawed Wiki-junk appearing next to us in search results.

Appreciate all the comments, but hope this problematic word jumble can be quickly addressed. If roll back is not an option, please delete. Have marked article as disputed as we do not want anyone to rely on this article in current form and hoping this hastens resolution. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.105.67.81 (talk) 21:49, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- for lack of sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail; no indications of significance either. Appears to be a prolific publisher of reviews, but not an authoritative or otherwise notable source. I briefly edited the article recently (Talk:New_York_Journal_of_Books#Sage), and the article struck me as containing a lot of puffery. I've attempted to look for sources, but the sources are lacking. As far as the other articles that link to this one (presumably due to the subject being used for citations), then the only authoritativeness would be due to the authors of the reviews, not the web site. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:41, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete As I commented earlier, I agree with nom's analysis of the Sagetree case study and The Booklover Magazine interview. They are not independent, reliable, secondary sources. The Publishers Weekly piece is an acceptable start on sources, but there is no other independent coverage of any depth. I don't see the "two references" A Guy into Books claims, and they haven't responded when asked for elaboration. Does not meet ]

Thanks for following up. I wouldn't call 2paragraphs an independent reliable source. Their "about" page says "If you've got something to say or to promote, try 2paragraphs." And that particular story seems to have originated with Inner Circle Labs, a PR operation you can trust because they don't accept a client unless they would promote the client even if they weren't getting paid, and because they wear pink on Wednesdays. The Northeastern piece is also a press release. I wouldn't touch those sources with a 10-foot pole, but at least that explains why our takes on notability are different. --Worldbruce (talk) 02:43, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being as yet unelected candidates in future elections — and that's doubly true if the election is a year and a half away, so as of today he hasn't even won the party primary yet. If you cannot demonstrate and properly source that he was already eligible for a Wikipedia article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he has to win the election, not just run in it, to attain notability from the election itself. Every candidate in every election always generates some campaign coverage, so just being able to show a handful of that does not get him over
    self-published résumé on LinkedIn, and a magazine article in which he's not the subject but the bylined author. These are not sources that assist notability at all. Plus this is quite blatantly written like a promotional campaign brochure, not a neutral encyclopedia article.

This is a local TV program which does not meet notability requirements. A majority of the references don't specifically mention the program, and those that do are non-independent. There is no significant coverage in reliable sources. The article is also the sole work of two single-purpose editors with a possible COI. -- Ed (Edgar181) 11:10, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I watch this show every week and began watching them when they were a local production. I don't know anyone who runs or produces the show. Why can't a local show be notable enough? I think it's great they've grown large enough to be included on Wikipedia. Why deprive them of that? I remember when they first published you told them they were too promotional. They fixed that and now you're still complaining? Let them do their thing, please. I'm a MA resident and we need more original local content. I will try making changes you've requested now to help them out.

I'll try to find a copy of their pieces, even if in Chinese. According to my correspondence with Wikipedia this should suffice.

Other than the fact that the article was created by the subject himself, there are problems with the references: those about him becoming chairman of the RSS advisory board were written by another member of that board and do not appear to have been published anywhere other than on the RSS Board website or on that other board member's personal website; the evidence of his daughter's YouTube cosmetics subscribers does not contribute to a notability claim for the subject himself (the article he created on her was speedily deleted); the ESPN Zone article is not about the subject, and only quotes him; the Reuters article does not even mention his name anywhere; there are no viable Google News hits on his name (those that do show up are for other individuals with the same name or are not "news"). I had made this a speedy deletion candidate as promotional, but this tag was removed so am now bringing it to AfD. KDS4444 (talk) 23:56, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As someone who works on improving the entries for technologists involved in the creation of Internet standards, I believe Morin meets the standard of notability. He chaired the RSS Advisory Board that publishes RSS, created the RSS Auto-Discovery specification, founded a startup that grew to 50,000 users before being sold to NBC and authored a popular Wiley book on Windows application servers. The article needs improvements to its sourcing and tone, and I'm happy to work on that. Peterkiesler (talk) 02:00, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment  Since nominator uses the term notable in its generic sense, there is no argument for deletion here.  This seems to be a potential article (it is not an article) without a champion, and a discussion without a cause.  There are various deletion and keep arguments to be found, including copyvio, WP:V, and gazetteer issues.  I lean to deleting it without prejudice to it being re-created from scratch.  The biggest problem is that reliable sources call this the "Oakland Expressway bridge", so this topic might only exist as a typographical error or a neologism.  Unscintillating (talk) 12:42, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, it is a poorly written article. But is it notable? I think that this can be saved with some editing and a little research. We tend to keep bridge articles related to major roadways as it always turns out that there is ample coverage for it in reliable sources (government can't build an outhouse without tens of thousands of reams of paper). It will most likely always be a stub, but that's fine. So please understand that I laugh and shake my head as I type in keep.--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:28, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - As much as I believe this article should be deleted, I have to agree with Paul. A quick search found that the nearest 3 bridges have their own articles (North Kansas Avenue Bridge, Sardou Bridge, and Topeka Boulevard Bridge). This one just needs a little work and its golden. The statement, "Overall, it is a bridge" needs to go, that is for sure. Andrew. Z. Colvin • Talk 21:01, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It's a significant bridge. Serving a reference about it is a useful function for Wikipedia, for readers looking it up from many usages in the newspaper about bridge resurfacing projects, about accidents, etc. I am heartily amused by "Overall, it is a bridge" being included in the article, apparently a commentary on Wikipedia's fixation with infrastructure, e.g. bridges, historic sites, roadways, ships, etc. After all, we have a special AFD section devoted to AFDs on transportation-related articles. That's why you're reading this, you are part of the problem! --doncram 21:43, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Overall, it is a bridge" is exactly what I Googled and found eight web sites with this text.  I'm not sure that it is worth the time to investigate, but if we keep it, there is a copyvio concern.  And with all the agreement here that we should keep it, I don't see a single primary reference to nail down the name.  Unscintillating (talk) 22:48, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • "Overall, it is a bridge" was added by an I.P. editor in 2013, and without checking I am 99.9% certain that other usages of that phrase on the internet are derivative, i.e. are copies of Wikipedia. And it is a nonsense statement, and merely five words, for which there cannot be any copyright issue. And it has been removed from the article. Done with that! --doncram 19:27, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I've added some bare notability sources, and the name might be in question... is it the "East Topeka Interchange" officially? Locals seem to call it the Oakland Expressway Bridge.--Paul McDonald (talk) 01:13, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I found hits on "Oakland Expressway Bridge", but certainly East Topeka Interchange could be mentioned in the article and set up as a redirect to the article, or anyone very concerned could move/rename the article later, with or without a formal wp:RM process. Again, I voted "Keep" on basis simply that it is clearly a major / significant bridge that is mentioned in sources and i think Wikipedia should cover it, as the I.P. points out we cover all bridges. :) --doncram 19:27, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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

I was looking at the wikipedia entry Dwarf panda, which claims to be about the species Ailuropoda minor Pei, 1962. However, the only source in the article as of now is a press release [48] for Jin et al 2007 [49], and neither Jin et al. 2007 nor the press release mention "Ailuropoda minor"; both only mention Ailuropoda microta, which has its own wikipedia article. The taxonbox in Dwarf panda claims the binomial authority for Ailuropoda minor is Pei, 1962, but I can only find a Pei, 1962 that's the binomial authority for Ailuropoda microta. This paper, [50][51] "Quaternary Mammals From the Liucheng Gigantopithecus Cave and Other Caves of Kwangsi" only names A. microta.

In the talk page for the genus Talk:Ailuropoda, Apokryltaros (under the name "Mr. Fink") writes that he could not find any mention of A. minor, and neither can I.

To me, it seems like Dwarf panda / Ailuropoda minor and Ailuropoda microta should not be separate articles, despite the hat note on each of those pages warning the reader to not mistake one for the other. Umimmak (talk) 01:52, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

At first, I wondered if Ailuropoda minor was a synonym of Ailuropoda microta, but, after much google-sifting, I've come to the conclusion that the Dwarf panda article was born of a misidentification of a list of Chinese Pleistocene mammals, i.e., "Ailuropoda microta, Arctonyx minor, et al.

AVN is not a RS and this still fails everything. ]
  • Keep -The official AVN links seem to show 404 error which means it may not be possible to cite the claimed info as per WP:PORNBIO. Also the spanish version of this article has survived for more than 30 months. Given the amount of contribution made by the performer to the adult industry, who unfortunately hasn't been mentioned much in media, I would like to give this article a chance to grow as the performer is still in business. -Casktopicsay 19:20, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Other language Wikipedia editions have their own notability guidelines. The es.Wikipedia article cites IMDb as its reference, clearly not acceptable here. As for AVN, all links are either working or are successfully waybacked. Two are republished press releases. The award nomination citations are trivial coverage confirming that the actress was nominated for awards. Nominations don't count towards PORNBIO notability. Finally, contributions to porn need reliable sources to verify them. They do not seem to be available. • Gene93k (talk) 03:04, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. The subject is one of those "up and coming, next big thing" types that the entertainment world is full of. There are plenty of citations here, but they're to IMDB and other sources simply confirming that he exists, as well as all manner of social media sites doing much the same. Based on a Google search, I'm thinking we have a

That doesn't make any sense. Either his Facebook (to take one example) is run by him/his "people", in which case it's not independent of him, or it's run by someone entirely else in which case it wouldn't make sense to have him as being "verified" on it. Social media isn't usually a reliable source, come to think of it. Even if that contradiction could be cleared up, I don't see how Facebook or Spotify at least would be able to provide the third-party in depth coverage required. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 11:58, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize for the confusion. I am Not referring to His Facebook page, His Spotify page, or His Kiwi page as independent sources. I am referring to the companies themselves being independent from the subject. Facebook, Spotify, and Kiwi are all major companies with high-end verification processes before issuing a verified badge to the page. These badges require a set of criteria and are only issued to the most notable figures. If all 3 of these companies are confirming he is a public figure in entertainment with a verified badge, then that serves as a reliable case that this person is legitimately notable. The case I was making had nothing to do with "in depth" coverage, so I apologize if I misled you into thinking it was. I have not looked into the "in depth" coverage, but if you already looked deeply into it, then maybe this page will qualify for WP:ENT criteria part 2. Can someone do us a solid and look into whether or not he has a large fan base or significant following? Thanks! MoviesAndMusic (talk) 12:57, 8 August 2017 (UTC)MoviesAndMusic[reply]
That misses the point I was making, though. If the pages are independent of the person they're about, then (logically) they can't be "verified" as being the page of the person they're about, can they? So if they are "verified" per Facebook's checking processes, then they are by definition not independent of the subject. Moreover, "having a verified badge" doesn't count for notability in a Wikipedia sense, which always requires in-depth coverage. If you weren't making a point about in-depth coverage, might I suggest that you make one in order to demonstrate notability for the subject?

  • Keep In reference to the comment about IMDb not being reliable, I did some deeper digging to verify further. The subject is credited through many movie's distributors such as Amazon. Also credited through official production's websites[1], and other independent sources. I am on the 17th page of Google search about the subject, and there are still independent sources referencing the subject in the movies and shows. In addition to those findings, both the subject and subject's name appears in many of the posters and screen grabs, for both movies and shows[2]. In addition, he's billed on IMDb as the main actor for many of these are movies and shows on major networks like Investigation Discovery with notable names like Bex Taylor-Klaus, Madison Iseman, and many others[3]. That meets WP:ENT criteria 1. Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.

Considering that Amazon is happy to distribute practically anything, I'm not sure that amounts to much. Additionally, the simple fact that his name appears in a mention of a film or what-have-you doesn't mean anything - it's not just an exercise in "find the name on the internet", but rather "find the independent, reliable, in depth coverage". A poster or screen grab isn't any of those. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 11:58, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that this is not an exercise in "find the name on the internet." However, I do not think the case being made here was about "in depth" coverage either. Please correct me if I am wrong, but I think what this user means is that Amazon, IMDb, Movie and TV Posters, Screen grabs of scenes, the actual movie and show websites, various articles, and other sources are all independent to the subject, but they are all saying the same thing and serving as evidence that this subject has a significant, if not main role in these projects that involve other notable celebrities and networks.MoviesAndMusic (talk) 13:13, 8 August 2017 (UTC)MoviesAndMusic[reply]
On the contrary. The "case being made" is always about in depth coverage. See
the general notability guideline, which is at the root of any discussion about the notability or lack thereof of any subject of any article. To address the types of sources listed: screen grabs of scenes, along with posters for films and shows, simply prove that the person played a role in the given thing, they aren't "coverage" in any sense of the word. Broadly speaking, the same applies for the websites for the films and shows, as they're designed to promote the thing they're about (and, by extension, the people involved). IMDB is user-editable and thus less than reliable, and Amazon is largely happy to distribute anything and sell anything, so again it confirms existence but not coverage. The "various articles" sounds the most promising, but they still need to amount to an in depth level of coverage, which the ones presently in the article do not.

Bearian, I have an IMDB page for being part of the production crew of 3 videos. I'm about as far from notable as you can get. That is how unimportant IMDB is for proving notability. ShelbyMarion (talk) 01:10, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
