The result was redirect to

WP:IAR. Finally, the merge case is that this appears to be a simple police operation that went awry and should thus be discussed on the page of the police force involved, Philadelphia Police Department
. Going by headcount there is 5+2 (the deletion nomination plus Inter&anthro's post) delete, 1+1+1 merge (I am counting "or" voters double, +1 is Blaylockjam10's conditional merge argument and the other +1) and 7+1 (+1 is Blaylockjam10's conditional keep argument) keep arguments. I've ignored one sockpuppet and am inclined to consider Blaylockjam10's stance as a merge given that nobody has posted evidence of new gun legislation yet.

On balance, it seems like the discussion is more supportive of getting rid of the article, as the "get rid of it" side is slightly prevailing by headcount and more importantly their arguments about there being no indication of notability is well taken, while most of the keep arguments are mere "significant coverage exists" with little explanation of how this establishes notability (not all coverage makes a topic notable; the claim of international coverage comes closest but as noted by

WP:GEOSCOPE
it does not automatically imply notability) and some claims of inherent notability that aren't grounded in any policy or guideline.

That leaves the question of how to get rid of the article. The delete camp has for the most part not contested any merge argument, but these are in the numerical minority and some of the merge proponents' arguments appear to be compatible with deletion. I don't particularly like this option has nobody has explicitly suggested it and it thus has a little supervote-ish character, but actually redirecting seems like the best way to satisfy both the "get rid of the article" stance while also leaving the possibility for useful content to be transported over to the police force article. Thus, redirect it is - contestations can be brought at the usual venues like deletion review, my talk page and

  • Comment - I feel that both the article, and this nomination, are too soon to establish if the subject is notable enough for an article here on Wikipedia. The incident ended less than 24 hours ago, and there is still are some reports and information coming out. Yet to be seen what the impact will be. Inter&anthro (talk) 22:59, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - If this article is retained, I suggest the title should be changed to 2019 Philadelphia shootout. The volume of gunfire produced by civilian firearms in urban settings is only half of the story. This situation, like the 2015 San Bernardino attack produced a heavy volume of police gunfire. In both situations the percentage of hits per shot fired apparently favored the civilians, although police investigations and press releases have a disincentive to attribute damage to police gunfire. Since every bullet fired hits something, it might be valuable to cover situations encouraging assessment of whether police weapons and procedures adequately consider the probability of collateral damage from over-penetration and ricochets in urban settings. Thewellman (talk) 23:39, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP – Significant event; significant coverage. It irks me that every time a new article is created, someone (both inevitably and immediately) calls for its deletion. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 03:11, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
And I'm getting tired of people rushing to create articles about in progress events when it's not at all clear they will meet our guidelines for encyclopedic notability. I'm guessing you did not bother to read any of the linked guidelines I posted. Significant coverage is not the only criteria for determining the notability of events. -Ad Orientem (talk) 05:11, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Encyclopedic relevance is not a particularly high standard, especially with regards to an event of national and international significance. Additionally, this incident hits all the marks of an article that shouldn't be deleted: it's presented neutrally; it's readily verifiable, per every major news organization in the United States; it contains no speculation or unfounded hypotheses; and it's encyclopedic.

Significant coverage is not the only criteria for determining notability of events. If this is the best that can be mustered in response to the linked PAG in my nom then I am becoming increasingly convinced that this page does not pass WP:EVENT. -Ad Orientem (talk) 05:11, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Actually a merge would be an acceptable alternative to deletion and the Philly PD is a good target article. Maybe a paragraph or two at the most. -Ad Orientem (talk) 20:07, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep for now It sounds like this may lead to new gun legislation in Pennsylvania. If that happens, I think this article would meet WP:LASTING. If it doesn't lead to new legislation, merge to the "Notable events" section of the Philadelphia Police Department article. Blaylockjam10 (talk) 20:53, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
1)
WP:CRYSTAL; 2) if it does lead to new gun legislation in Philadelphia, and if that legislation is notable, this would be a worthy bit to include in an article on that legislation, to help explain its origin. But that doesn't support it having its own article. TJRC (talk) 18:34, 20 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

Once again, significant coverage is not the sole criteria for WP:EVENTs. I feel like I'm banging my head on a brick wall here. Please review the policies and guidelines in the nominating statement and address them. -Ad Orientem (talk) 17:03, 20 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

True. IAR is one of those things that I have always believed should be safe, legal... and rare. IAR is a bit like what is sometimes called an "affirmative defense." In effect you are conceding that PAG is against you, but you are saying we should make an exception owing to some special circumstance. If you are making an IAR argument you should state as much clearly, and why you think an exception to our customary PAG is called for. In this case the argument appears to be less an appeal for a one off exception and more that we should chuck our guidelines entirely where the subject is American mass shootings. I don't see a convincing IAR argument for a limited one time exception given the pedestrian nature of the subject, much less the suggestion that we should elevate American gun violence above our notability guidelines. -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:21, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: An article devoted specifically to a single mass shooting, properly sourced, is notable. - Ret.Prof (talk) 13:02, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

    I had listed these articles on my sandbox back in 2017. I just did not have the time or patience to nominate them until now. These articles do not "offend" me but fail the basic notability criteria. Dee03 20:35, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom, and per consensus established at recent AfDs such as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/D. Gamit. These are not biographies, they are thinly disguised score cards, and often we don't even have enough information to unambiguously identify the player. This information would be better presented as lists of cricketers. Reyk YO! 07:48, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the outcomes of recent AfDs. These are surnames and initials on scorecards with no other biographical information available. Given this we're unlikely to be able to find further information to do more than verify their existence. In all but two cases they are known to have played only one match which reinforces this view. Mehra and A Chowdrey are the exceptions who played 4 (including two miscellaneous) and 3 matches respectively. If that were rather more and I had more biographical information I might be convinced that there were merits for keeping them. Of course, they can always be re-created if sources do become available. My preference would always be for a redirect to a suitable list (along the lines of List of Bedfordshire County Cricket Club List A players), but those lists don't really exist for Indian cricket yet and recent AfDs convince me that delete is a more likely outcome in these circumstances.

Autobiography. Previously deleted. Not my field of expertise but I am not seeing much on Google. Are the publications enough? JamesG5 (talk) 19:57, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes. Sorry for it being an autobiography. I have found that most of my friends at U of Toronto have pages and most at York U do not. Maybe this is because they are better and maybe because no one has been proactive. I thought I would make some for my colleagues at York. I started with Peter Cribb.

  • Keep It's the nomination that is low quality. This is not a dictionary article; it's a stub.
    WP:DICDEF
    explains the difference and says

    "One perennial source of confusion is that a stub encyclopedia article looks very much like a dictionary entry, and stubs are often poorly written; another is that some paper dictionaries, such as "pocket" dictionaries, lead users to the mistaken belief that dictionary entries are short, and that short article and dictionary entry are therefore equivalent."

There is significant coverage on the shows and films in which she's appeared and she is listed as a credited actress on all of her titles.

And all bd notable/non-notable release song in youtube. And “Mashrafe is a famous person that's why everything get attention”. Does it make senses?? So for this reason if any book/music use Mashrafe name or dedicated/related to him then it is not notable?? And song is by his name "Mashrafe" then news should be publish on his name first "new song release Mashrafe " Such as bad thinking of your!

@আফতাবুজ্জামান: the song name is "Mashrafe" by his own name. So It's obvious to mention that "Mashrafe song release", If it was different name then you claim that no his song not release independently. I think you didn’t understand the conflict. And this song got significant coverage there have many " Mashrafe" song if you search on internet you will found. But this song has maximum coverage. If just issue is "Mashrafe" then every song got kinda 15/20 difference in coverage. But when you look at this song compare to "Mashrafe" title other song this one is significant song.

No, I didn't confuse with person name mashrafe & song name mashrafe. When source says "Musical tribute to Mashrafe" or "song about mashrafe", they mean person name mashrafe. One line in the source ("Mashrafe song release") doesn't make the song notable. And no, i'm not talking about other song, i'm talking about this thing. It's doesn't matter if this song got 10-15 coverage, when all of coverage are trivial, press release and not independent, not significant. --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 20:12, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you judge this then hat-trick, 5 wicket hauls,century all are useless. Because if this is all not significant then why this give extra importance in cricket. There have a article about lasith malinga hat-trick so then you say what's the necessary to this article?? delete is not the solution, and people doesn’t get this information easily when they search any sports website,if you search espncricinfo advance option then you get this result. But everyone not aware how to get result of a player century details,hat-trick,man of the match easily. If you merge this article it will be okay or stay as a independent article nothing see any problem. Rasi56 (talk) 04:25, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to their player articles - man of the match awards simply aren't that notable, not even in international cricket. If there are particularly significant performances (e.g. in a World Cup final) then those should be mentioned in prose on the player's page. The consensus has generally been that these articles aren't notable in themselves - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/International awards by Sanath Jayasuriya; my comments on that AfD remain valid - a very selective prose merge may be suitable: copying the entire table across isn't and falls foul of NOTSTATS and CRIC:STYLE. Blue Square Thing (talk) 09:23, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't think that "List of International Awards received by Mashrafe Mortaza" (and similar for Shakib) is a plausible search term, so a redirect doesn't seem necessary to me. I agree that these lists are not notable; as Blue Square Thing states, notable performances should be described in the prose, and it would not be inappropriate in those cases to note that the player was named as man of the match.

@Harrias: is it not plausible search term?? I provided link go and verify its espn cricinfo stats. And if anyone interested to know about Players man of the match,hat-trick, 5 wicket hauls its best place to read in wikipedia. Because maximum don't know how to search this on espncricinfo. And I don't understand why it not notable?? Then you need to remove every players who have 5 wicket hauls, hat-trick list,list of centuries. This is significant of a player career and all here said that not significant.

@Blue Square Thing: if this is not notable then why give this??I Think you need to know from any professional commentator or players whats the significant of this. I am a cricket player, and I knew the significant of this awards, centuries,5 wickets etc. You can merge this performance in main article, if needed then convert table info to prose it will suitable. I just give my suggestion, you know better then me. -Rasi56 (talk) 10:59, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You need to read the style guide about statistics on the cricket project. If you send the table to a main article without clear and obvious context it will be removed.

@Blue Square Thing: there have one football table still exist you didn’t remove this. And if I add man of the match awrds in prose/bullet style just like this in Main article awards section -

  • On 14 May 2018, England vs Bd he scored 41*( 2*4, 3*6/2x4,3x6) and he got 2/30.

Can I add this man of the match in this awards I think its significant for player (my opinion). If you tell me then I will add or if you tell me the style of how to write in prose, it will be better. Rasi56 (talk) 16:16, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This sprawling article is full of

WP:OR. Author admits on talk page that "To date, no ... peer-reviewed published studies or article or book treatments — regarding Ben Joseph have been carried out by scholars within the 'wider' Latter-day Saint movement." Bensci54 (talk) 16:09, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply
]

Please specify your NPOV concerns, as all others thus far have done, as, so far, they have all been adequately answered. As such, the discussion thus far should not have warranted in any sense your posting of a deletion proposal. You say "full of WP:NPOV and WP:OR" – please specify exactly what your concerns might be. That is, please be specific about what you personally are perceiving that is not in accord with Wikipedia standards.
To be clear, this is an article about a higher educational study-area to which several respected LDS scholars have contributed; it presents their collective views as these relate to a comparative study area that is very similar, for instance, to the comparative research done by Jewish scholars on this identical subject of 'Messiah ben Joseph,' but from the scholarly perspective of educators within the LDS Church Educational System (CES) in their comparative application of Ben Joseph research to a historical American religious figure, Joseph Smith. Based on this fact, there appears to be in your suggestion an element of religious bias, if you are disputing a group's right (such as that enjoyed by the various schools of rabbinical study) to contribute to such a scholarly inquiry or to a corpus of published research (both Christian and Jewish) such as this — but as such relates, in this case, specifically to the LDS Church. Otherwise, please be specific in your concerns, and each will be answered in good faith.
Your partial restatement of my comment that no other articles to date exist within the wider LDS movement certainly does not constitute grounds for an article's deletion. That 'wider' field is of no concern to this article. If I must define by what is meant (or what the questioner meant) by 'wider' field, this applies to any individual break-off groups from the original 'Latter Day Saint movement,' the body of Saints led by Brigham Young (which is today known as the LDS Church). Those other groups simply have not contributed to date any published materials to this area of LDS study. Nothing is necessarily defective or wrong with that state of affairs, as seems to be implied by connotation in your remark. The phrasing of your concern indicates that something is somehow 'wrong' with this lack of interest, or whatever the true reasons for it may be. If this isn't what was intended by your remark, please clarify. If so, this should be of no concern to anyone, as there is certainly not an absence of scholarly contribution to the Ben Joseph idea within the LDS Church — which body of published work is the focus of this article (I feel as if I am repeating myself here, and so, my apologies to anyone who already understands the presented basis and validation for this article); this article, moreover, first presents a general background of Jewish sources which may be beneficial, too, for any other faith inquiring for the first time into Ben Joseph scholarship, which finds a basis in an entire corpus of respected Jewish legends and writings.
There is nothing wrong with any other faith (especially within the wider 'Latter Day Saint movement') not having yet contributed published materials to this study area. Perhaps students affiliated with those faiths haven't a publishing venue, as yet, or an institution of higher learning by which their interest in the topic has found an outlet for publication and dissemination; or perhaps they simply haven't the interest or opportunity to contribute to the study area. But their reasons for this, whatever they may be, do not concern this article — nor should they hold concern for anyone. The subject at hand is one that specifically concerns published scholarship as carried out within the LDS Church. This article's sole sect-based focus, to reiterate, is about research and scholarship carried out within the LDS Church; it does not concern any other sectarian group's research in this area, as this is a synthesis of comparative Ben Joseph studies by LDS Church scholars.
The statement I made (given, by the way, simply in answer to another's question) about possible 'wider' religious contribution in the larger Latter Day Saint movement — these being concerns which do not apply to this LDS Church-affiliated article — have no place in a discussion about this sect-specific assessment of the Ben Joseph idea in history. It certainly hasn't a place if it is being asserted to be the basis for a discussion of an article's proposed deletion. Again, please be specific about your individual concerns, and I will be happy to respectfully address them. Chauvelin2000 (talk) 20:33, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It is certainly an impressive article, and some may assume like I did that with 136 references, it would be possible to fix any issues the article might have. I was wrong. 136 references, and not one of them is a reliable source for the subject of the article. Essentially, all of the sources used either A) Have nothing to do with the LDS version of this concept; or B) are not reliable, secondary sources. It's OR because there appears to be a lot of interpretation of primary sources here. It's inherently incapable of being NPOV because without any reliable sources cited, it is impossible to know what the neutral point of view is. The author of the article admits above that there is no proper academic treatment of this concept, which is not a good sign for the topic's viability on Wikipedia. If there is a way to write an article about this, it would start with deleting what is already present. Someguy1221 (talk) 07:27, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The biggest problem with this article is that most of the sources it used that are Latter-day Saint related are not using this term at all. Joseph Fielding McConkie's arguments would better fit in an article Latter-day Saint understand of profecies of Joseph Smith or something like that. He does not invoke this term. Actually for very good reason, very few Latter-day Saints would invoke this term. In Latter-day Saint teaching "Messiah"="Jesus". I have been around enough to know that Daniel Rona is willing to invoke this term, but one fireside circuit speaker is just not enough to justify an article.

IMO it currently has too much emphasis of the viewpoint from people such as Gould and Lewontin and not enough from people such as Stephen Pinker, E.O. Wilson, and Richard Dawkins. But that's an argument to improve the article not delete it. I could possibly see a justification for merging this into Biological determinism. However, when I looked at Biological determinism it already has several sections that point to articles on specific sub-topics. So I think this article should be kept (and improved) and also that there should be a link to it added in the Biological determinism article. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 17:00, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • delete I actually originally thought that this article was a keep and was just poorly rewritten, but the arguements above have changed my opinion on that. I disagree with the arguments for delete based on heavily unbalanced content-- that can be changed. Indeed, the article in its original form has a more neutral format. Take a look at https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/feminism-gender/#BioDet for how this article doesn't have to be written with such biased language. But I do agree that the article is present in many forms all over wikipedia, and its size doesn't merit a content fork, especially because a lot of the language in this is "fluff." I would merge to Sex differences in psychology#Psychological traits as this seems to cover what the title is referring to (while not covering some of the content). For those that are still not convinced, take a look at it this way: 2 of the 3 sections in the article are merely summaries of main articles, and if this article is supposed to be justified as a content fork, then how can it in turn point to subjects (the third category, anyway just seems to be a summary of gender discrimination)? The content fork justification was the original justification for creating this, and seems to be the only justification, but at the same time, can't be true as there is no original content on this page. Unless someone wants to add new content to this (which is already extensively covered in my proposed redirect), this is a delete for me. Sam-2727 (talk) 03:21, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Judgeship of Rayagada relates to a judicial infrastructure and its notability need not be decided from the list of Judges but from the fact that it is an important wing of Judicial Administration relating to Indian Courts. Topics like educational institutions are there in wikipedia. I do not say that educational institutions are not notable, but judicial institutions are notable owing to their becoming one of the four pillars of democracy. That's why Bankshall Court, West Bengal Judicial Academy have been there in Wikipedia. I feel sorry to say that when it is a matter relating to institutions in a backward state like Odisha, its apparent notability is being questioned. I do strongly appeal for reconsideration.Hpsatapathy (talk) 07:14, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I would thank that the matter has been kept open for more views. In this regard I would like to place one more point that the List_of_district_courts_in_India contain red links which are meant to help Wikipedia grow. Certainly the creation of red links prevents new pages from being orphaned from the start.[1] So when such a red link is developed, it is certainly in consonance with the policy of wikipedia and the purpose is only to enrich Wikipedia with more relevant topics.Hpsatapathy (talk) 10:23, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

oppose/keep The album was original 2 Live Crew member Fresh Kid Ice (Christopher Wong Won's) final studio album. The album did not chart, but it was popular regionally in Miami, represented a collaboration with the Insane Clown Posse on 2 tracks, and is representative of the Miami bass sound, of which Wong Won was a pioneer (and is relatively recently deceased, July 13, 2017). Sundevilesq (talk) 04:56, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment An assertion that it was popular regionally in Miami does nothing to demonstrate
notability is not inherited. What is needed here are sources - if Filmman3000 can find and add some independent reliable sources that give significant coverage to this album (not just stuff about the artist with a passing reference to the album, which is all I could find), then I'd be happy to withdraw the nomination.

Comment
WP:SIGCOV. That source includes only a single, brief passing mention of the album. It doesn't matter if we find a hundred sources like that, they don't contribute to notability - we need sources that actually discuss the album itself in significant depth.

AND this is why I took a break from Wikipedia from adding/editing pages. You DO come across as patronizing and I read
WP:SIGCOV before I added the ref. The album is significant for the reasons stated, but at this point, do whatever you want. Hopefully, Filmman3000 can come up with more refs.

I'm truly sorry you feel like that
NPP, and part of that process is for us to assess the notability of the subject of any new article against the relevant criteria, and to scrutinise the sources being used to support that notability. Since, in my view at least, that source clearly falls short of the criteria at SIGCOV, I thought you might not have read it; I apologise for making that assumption, and for coming across as patronising.

The UGC "State-wise List of Private Universities as on 12.11.2018", currently ref 1, is an independent verification that something of this name was "notified", whatever that means, on 17 April 2018. PamD 08:21, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@PamD: Hi. I have been getting a "server timed out" error for that pdf file. But from your comment, I am guessing the college's application for starting the "business" was approved by the UGC. But it wouldn't mean that the subject has gone operational or came into existence. Or it might even have been notified of something, due which the application was put on hold. —usernamekiran(talk) 12:54, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@PamD and Usernamekiran: In India, a university cannot operate until a legislative assembly passes an Act, which is notified in the Gazette.[1] Once this happens, the UGC recognises the institute and adds it to its lists.[2] In my opinion there is no question of official recognition and legitimacy, although there is a question whether operation has started. --Muhandes (talk) 15:17, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep I am the creator of this stub so I may not be impartial. It has been customary to start articles for
    AfD. [reply
    ]
It does seem a little strange that an entity which hasn't started to operate yet can be rated "top university of India". Similary the statistics it quotes on its website seem curious for a place which can't yet have any graduates let alone a "17,000 alumni network" and "10th in world ranking". PamD 15:31, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I would say the institute is self promotional, and we shouldnt keep articles of such organisations, especially if it would confuse our readers. —usernamekiran(talk) 18:40, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with you both that this is most likely false advertising, or at the very least misleading, but my conclusion is the opposite. Our best course of action in this case is to counter the false advertising with an impartial and well sourced article. There aren't many independent sources at this time, so the article only states what is clear - that this is an upcoming institute, which was approved by the government, and is yet to operate. The only question is notability, which I agree is borderline, but tends towards positive. --Muhandes (talk) 10:37, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment None of the above sources demonstrate notability according to Wikipedia's criteria. The Gazette is not is not significant coverage and does not appear to be a
    reliable source
    according to Wikipedia's standards. And, a poster-like webpage claiming "Best Media & Arts Institute" on the AAFT.EDu website is a primary source published by the University and not independent significant coverage - in fact it is a slide (like Microsoft Powerpoint) - look at the URL.
Next, a statewide list of universities is merely passing mention and is not significant, in-depth, independent coverage. Then, a campus tour via this University's website is a primary source, produced by this University. Finally, a Power Point slide residing on this University's URL, claiming to be rated "top University" is a primary source, and not a reliable secondary or third-hand source, independent of the subject. Also, there is nothing in this discussion that has clearly shown that University even exists right now. It seems to have been a back forth between participants. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 06:46, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

    WP:ORG guidelines which it doesn't. No independent RS that I could find except for the HSEB member listing (which is enough to verify it's not a hoax, but doesn't aid notability in any way).

Thanks LB - Boonaa Mohammed has 1 of 3 references of notability; one of which is a TedX talk. Why isn't Alakkuu's TedX talk given the same weight in notability? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yortay (talkcontribs) 15:32, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Understandable that the award from CBC was considered, but Alakkuu is a best selling African poet, and I don't see why that isn't being considered. Also, an accepted article pertaining to [Boonaa Mohammed]] (https://web.archive.org/web/20110823202903/http://oromiatimes.multiply.com/journal/item/1237/Oromo_-_Canadian_Poet_Boonaa_Mohammed_Celebrates_African_Legacy) was very similar to the Forbes article of Alakkuu, but from a much less notable source (bio and answers from the subject himself). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yortay (talkcontribs) 19:04, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Noticed that references produced by the subject him/herself are accepted , e.g. Nayyirah Waheed wrote https://www.vibe.com/featured/afeni-shakur-mothers-day-poem and this was used as a viable reference on this subject's page.

The concept of the "medieval great power" barely exists and it certainly is not used in scholarship (or anywhere) to describe just about any of the states listed on this page. The page cannot be rescued because sources do not exist. Srnec (talk) 02:09, 15 August 2019 (UTC) I suppose the page could be rescued, but it would be much reduced. Also, unlike the modern great powers, there is no consensus concerning what were "great powers" in the Middle Ages. Srnec (talk) 13:16, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because it suffers from the same problem. A bare list of states that some modern scholar has labelled a "great power" is possible, but seems useless to me. Unlike the medieval page, this one might be salvageable.

[Prior to everything I apologise for possible errors in English language, which is not my mother tongue]. The article is about an Internet phenomenon who is not either an established entrepreneur, nor an IT expert (he's basically someone that reads on behalf of you the user manual of an electronic device) and also lacks of notability outside his narrow niche of followers. He's only "Famous for being famous"; or better, "notorious for being notorious". Of course I am aware that every chapter has their own rules and guidelines, often radically different one another, but even the community in Italian language, which should be the most impacted by the phenomen, had expressed their perplexity about the relevance of the biographed person, so much that the article were deleted by consensus. I am just proposing that the community in English language evaluates the encyclopedical relevance of the subject. SERGIO aka the Black Cat 16:56, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. In my opinion, the main issues with this article is that several of the "key" facts that maybe could support notability are not indipendently verified. Especially, it is claimed that S.A. at young age discovered and/or exploited significant web vulnerabilities on websites such as Poste Italiane. None of this is corroborated by any evidence outside of his own website, later copy-pasted in a short bio inside an interview-style book.
Also, there is a non-negligible chance that the article was, at least in part, written or supported by S.A. himself or his employees, and we know for a fact that Wikipedia does not support vanity articles. This already happened on the Italian Wikipedia in 2006, when the page was deleted 12 times over a period of 10 days for this reason and then 10 years later.
Currently, the main argument for the existence of the articles seems to be that he is popular. Guidelines clarify that "Notable in the sense of being famous or popular—although not irrelevant—is secondary." --TheLazza (talk) 10:54, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
there is a non-negligible chance that the article was, at least in part, written or supported by S.A. himself or his employees no there is not :D. I was not going to comment here but this is actually quite fun. Plus it should be said is totally untrue. You could have pinged me asked me, if you really wanted to know, but you just drop it there, while you can check who I am and see I had nothing to do with him, just met him at an event in April 2018 and said I could have written this article in English since there was plenty of sources. This occurred few weeks after a discussion with quite a few wikipedians in March in Florence who considered the deletion on itwikipedia excessive (I don't think I even started such discussion). I simply found useful to describe something people still look for. And he is not in my field, more importantly I don't even like him (or in any case, I dont' fully get him) :D I knew him like everybody else, but never used his tutorials because if I need, I google basic questions in English, but I am not a snob.
Also, you got an answer in the talk page, I can find you at least two national newspapers that define him what he is, the most known personality in his field, the "expert" of this "basic problem solving" for the Italian audience, and I guess you can find even more sources. But as Italian you know that, he has this "role". In the end, adding more sources about that is no big deal, but if people want that, they don't start a deletion immediately or they don't make allusion in the deletion procedures. So, go on. it could be actually more interesting to link this discussion to everyone asking about this story and the obsession of it-N wikipedians with Aranzulla (see the incorrectly inserted deletion requests or tags over the months). BTW, besides being the most known in his "field", he is notable by enwiki standard also for the fuzz generated by the deletion procedure. A part that I think you even improved in the article. Thank you for the laugh. Also, don't forget lawiki article. That was written by I think a former member of the Board of Director of Wikimedia Italy, who has a blog on the topic of web communication and/or wiki stuff, and he is a sysop on itwikipedia, you can doubt about him too. --Alexmar983 (talk) 22:10, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
“while you can check who I am” — Technically speaking, I cannot. I have no power to do a Check User operation, your profile does not specify your real name (totally fine, it is of course not required) and in any case this deletion discussion is not personally about you, but just about the article.
“you got an answer in the talk page” — Thank you, I responded more precisely over there. I'd just like to repeat a point here: currently it seems we do not have evidence he hacked / found vulnerabilities in companies such as Google, Microsoft or Poste Italiane. If sufficient evidence of this can be found, I will strongly consider strucking my previous "delete" and suggest to keep the article.
“it could be actually more interesting to link this discussion to everyone asking about this story” — In my opinion, that's not a good idea and it could alter consensus. I remember the "call to action" S.A. did when his article was about to be deleted from it-Wikipedia, on social media and then (after the fact) on newspapers. It did not turn out wonderfully.
--TheLazza (talk) 17:38, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes you can check who I am, it's all on the internet. As an expert guy who can look inside guideline of a platform you almost never edited and an expert guy in general, you can do it very easily. It has nothing to do with a check user operation. Just think about that there was no reason to state something so big like that, you just wanted to see this reality, that's the point. Also, we even discussed in your talk page years ago and at a time I did not care to write this article.
About that part, remove. It is incidental in this context, the sources for the notability are other ones. Look I found other ones right now. a national newpaper calling him
Il Sole 24 ore il più famoso divulgatore informatico d'Italia in the description, than a a national radio where Linus
define it more famous than Emily Ratajkowski to the audience. But you know this, you know he is the most known popularizer in the field. I know that and I did not live in Italy for years when he was already famous.
it's not a "call to action", I will link it after you completed the deletion in future discussion ;D. Which is no big deal, you really think I link to get support? I told you in talk page of the article how much I care. You see? here it is again, just for the anglophones reading this discussion... we have people who make of Aranzulla such a big deal that sometime they "create" this reality that just does not exist as much as they think it does. Aranzulla does not care about this article I suppose (when I briefly chatted with him he was quite calm about it, the idea of an article in English was possible but I suppose it is not his main target that's why he did not care particularly, who knows), I wrote it and I don't care very much (I commented because of this far-fetched allegation of being close to him), people with whom I discussed about it in these days while talking about other wiki-things don't really care about keeping it or not (but of course since the fuzz by the previous deletion, a lot of it-N wikimedians immediately realized about this deletion too). BTW, the English page is linked from the main page of google on the lateral infobox from Italy, so somebody will end up here maybe in any case, as they landed on the article in the previous months.--Alexmar983 (talk) 19:10, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Whether he does or "does not care", or what "his main target" consists of, is completely irrelevant to this discussion. You are turning the rest in a personal argument, with snarky remarks about my Wikipedia usage and a bunch of sarcastic smilies, which I am not interested to get into. Bye. --TheLazza (talk) 13:49, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You made a personal comment about who I might be, that's how you started here... and about the fact that the person who write this article might be close to him. you. And if you want, you could be interested in the sources. I asked you many times in the talk page if you want to put them in the article, the ones here and the other ones there. I never got a reply. I am glad we kinda proved to the anglophone audience what is sometimes the level in the it-N community about Aranzulla, a fact that users on this platforms could guess also by the unusual deletion attempts and the tags in the previous months. Now I guess that since I will never get an answer about inserting the additional sources, I can add them in the article myself. --Alexmar983 (talk) 22:18, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Please, we are on en.wiki. I guess that our English-speaking friends don't care for the dynamics of the chapter in Italian language, so we have to make a collective effort to avoid replicating them here. -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 22:43, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to avoid to replicate them, don't start a discussion citing the deletion on itwikipedia as if it was a pro (it was not, by any platform standard, a functional procedure). Now people can start to question type of behaviour could be part of such decision, which I think the English-speaking users should also know f you cite it. To be honest, we are not replicating them, because I stopped them. As soon as the image of promotional POV-pushing was evocated, I killed it. Now you can hardly reply here the dynamic of the Italian wikipedia. As a result, we can finally discuss about sources and nothing else. I'm happy because I am the one who cited those.--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:59, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So, I will insert all the sources tomorrow with calm, just for this discussion please notice also these snippets I found (easily)

Plus there might be even something on academic publications. In any case, the sources here and in the talk pages are probably enough. Tomorrow I add them.--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:59, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So, I have edited quite randomly during the last hours. Since the important ones are already here and in the talk page, I have added a lot of "minor" sources, in order to clean up the situation. The last part is to rearrange the first lines with all the sources that define him as the most important popularizer in the field of IT for the general Italian public, which we have enough. I had to add more sources about the reaction to the deletion because it was not balanced. Originally, I avoided inserting it in order to evaluate the relevance only by the other aspects, but it was inserted so now it should be described a little bit more. What was there was totally missing other reactions. Finally, I added the information about the Italian promo of Black mirror because it was on different sources. There is also his new initiative as a pastry chef which is maybe correct to cite since two or three sources already do that (but I would avoid inserting it for the moment). He was cited for the "scandal" of the food delivery guys and the celebrities who do not leave a tip, but I also decide not to insert this part. Plus, there is also the award from the town of Catania, this can also be added. In any case the real final edit is the insertion or rearrangements of all the sources from national newspapers and financial magazines about the relevance in his field. --Alexmar983 (talk) 18:59, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is, as I am now learning by having a look at the history of the page, that this is an article created by an Italian user whose home wiki is it.wiki.
And it looks to me like a (dangerous) loophole in order to pave the road to its reintroduction on it.wiki.
Alex, I am telling this honestly and frankly because I know you: this RfD was opened for the ENGLISH community to express their concern about an article of dubious enciclopedicity. Thus this is not an Italian RfD temporarily relocated on en.wiki.
Please, do not attempt to monopolize the debate with a flood of non pertinent data (like the ones you just tried to provide with) and considerations regards other partecipants. this is a discussion for the english-speaking community. Can I hope you understand what I say and step behind? I repeat: CAN I EXPECT that this is a matter that is not managed by guests on this chapter like us? -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 19:31, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I am a editor of enwikipedia. In addition to that FYI my original homewiki was frwiki before itwiki. I created this article after years from the itwiki deletion (and after its established presence on other language editions) as part of my interest in biographies of living people which i find challenging but interesting. It was coincidentally cited to me two times in the span of few weeks, that's why I decide to create it. After the pseudo-trolling of Italian users I stopped enlarging as I wanted to, and now I am completing it. Also, I have been even more active here than itwikipedia in the last months, or even years. To be honest, the other user is much less active on this platform than I am. If it was not a problem for you that he was here making allegations that were not pertinent to the article, how is my presence an issue now? If he did not make a unsubstantial claim about me, which is mostly why I am here, would you have been ok with his presence? BTW, isn't he also the user who started the deletion on itwikipedia, I seem to recall? In any case, I was not present on itwiki deletion procedure, I know it because many peoples in Italy (and all wikimedians) knew it at the time and it was quite a big thing. As a user of this platform, I will edit the article and describe why it fits the notability guideline of enwikipedia. The other "anglophone" users can make their comments about it. If I might, I find your deletion proposal a little flawed. If you have so much respect for the active content-creating users of this platforms, you could have waited for them to ask for a proper deletion request, instead of bringing the business of another platform here since the beginning. Platforms are independent and even if a deletion procedure is a good thing to scroll to get an idea (certainly for some sources), that specific deletion was not, it was quite dysfunctional and you should know that. As a result, you also invited comment such as the first one with these far-fetched allegations. Now that people have this aspect a litte bit more clear in mind, and your "authoritative" statement is a little bit more into perspective, they can simply evaluate the sources. In any case, I have no problem to leave this discussion after the last enlargement. will however explain why he is obviously not "famous for being famous", and I am here if anyone needs help about the Italian language.--Alexmar983 (talk) 20:25, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
established presence on other language editions: German (by a globally blocked Italian user), Latin and Lombardian. Please kindly don't try to make a fool of me :-) -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 21:09, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I am not fooling anyone. Nobody deleted it after one year on German wikipedia, which is quite selective and has a rigid page revision mechanism, and a very expert user wrote it in Latin. Never considered lmowiki, in my evaluation. Since I got no reply on the rest, I hope you agree. In the end, I put an additional step before also checking the sources, it's more than many other users do. If I might, you actually tried to make a fool of me with your attempt to ask me to leave this discussion, and with your attempt to act as the person who wants a discussion devoid of the itwikipedia influences, after I was the one who had to stop them (and with the creation of this page after few hours of the doubt of the Italian user, citing the itwiki deletion procedure, you actually encouraged them).--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:21, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have added other sources. You all can refine, change, remove one but there will other ones. In the end, Aranzulla is not "famous for being famous", is the most important popularizer in the IT field for the general audience in Italy. There will be other sources probably, it takes more time to insert them than actually finding them. Have a nice holiday.--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:21, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also, here is a source that is not Italian. It's Swiss-Italian, just to prove how Aranzulla is known to all the areas speaking this language. On

Well basically the reason for deletion are sheer: Aranzulla is neither an IT specialist (by his own admission, plus), nor a technician, and the few articles that talk about him cite him only as phenomenon of costume to underline the general technological ignorance of the average Italian people. He's basically vaguely notoriius for having been dropped from it.wiki and having offended as "losers" the ones who expressed consent favourable to his biographical article. -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 19:21, 18 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The article fits

WP:GNG. Aranzulla is the most relevant popularizer in his field to the Italian (or in a broder sense Italian-speaking) public. The presence of a Swiss source in this discussion (and in the article), that highlights his role, does not fully fit the narrative of ignorance of the Italian public about IT, and even if so this is the sort of consideration that has nothing to do with what the sources state. It is not possible to find a source in the last years that describes him just as "vaguely notorious" but a lot stating he has been in "notorius" and the reason is clear in expressions such as "king" or "guru" of this aspect of IT problem solving. His presence on newspapers, magazines, radio programs has been quite constant. He was already cited on specialized magazines or national TV programs when he was a teen-ager because of his work, he later became a successful entrepreneur who is currently interviewed by the most important Italian economic newspapers and magazines specifically because of this aspect. The deletion of his itwikipedia article was not notorious because he called "loser" the person who proposed the deletion, but because some newspapers couldn't even explain to their audience who found it excessive. As a person widely known to the public, he also has a minor involvement in some pop culture dynamics, as this often happens. Even not considering that, he is relevant in his field. --Alexmar983 (talk) 23:45, 18 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

Swiss source is not relevant because the Italian Switzerland, as well as San Marino, are not culturally "foreign", since they are bordering the mainland Italy. Aranzulla's relevance is still to be demonstrated, as the vague source cited in this discussion demonstrate. -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 01:09, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The canton of Lugano is not similar to Italy under many aspects, unless you have a source that states that their IT literacy is like the Italian one and that they are both poor. Both
GDP investments in R&D. The national school system is second in the future skill preparedness and top 5
in the Digital Competitiveness ranking. I am just grabbing the first sources I am finding with google.
In any case, the sources concerning Aranzulla in the article are not vague. They are quite consistent over the years, presenting him as the top in his field. And they are on all major magazines and journals (only one, a 30 y.o, business magazine does not have an article here on enwikipedia, they are all sources so established they were all translated even on this wiki). The ones in the article now are those mostly related to him (I put the snippets where he is briefly cited only in this current discussion, and I have more from every types of sources).--Alexmar983 (talk) 12:46, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Would you mind to elaborate a little bit about the relevance of any fact you stated about Switzerland? I mean: Switzerland is advanced in IT, so what? S.A. is not a computer scientist nor an IT manager/expert/professional. Neither does he work in Switzerland. He is a full-time writer of tutorials for the general public, written in Italian. "His field" is SEO, not IT. His company legitimately earns money through ads and maximizing the number of visits on its website, not by managing IT projects. Moreover, it is not surprising at all that the Italian speaking community in Switzerland reads Italian language websites, which are mostly based in Italy. --TheLazza (talk) 14:29, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I said there are also Swiss sources, somebody pointed out that their situation is the same of Italy. I noticed it's not like that. They read the same sites (probably, but again why I am the only person bringing sources?) ok, but even with a different situation, they still give preeminence to him in this sector. BTW, I think the only really relevant part are the sources, I never put considerations of the low IT literacy of the Italian population as a factor to be taken into account in assessing the relevance of Aranzulla. He is a popularizer of problem solving and is recognized as the top both in a country with low IT literacy and in a region with high IT literacy. Which of course kinda proves the point that IT is not his core competence, which was never questioned by me. I simply point out sources are here and describe him in a certain way independently of their field (general, economic) or region (Italy or Switzerland) or year (2016, 2017, 2018, 2019).--Alexmar983 (talk) 16:03, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you cite itwikipedia let's consider some facts about this deletion there. The let's say 50-50 split the itwikipedia would have kept the article if vote started (you need a two third majority to delete) but the discussion was closed before the vote, it was claimed that the consensus was clear, which wasn't by itwikipedia standard. People who wanted to keep the articles were also sysops and made good points as well. And it was with the sources of 2016. There are three years more of sources and a ongoing discussion even on itwikipedia now on it:Discussione:Salvatore_Aranzulla. Which is quite bizarre because also the talk page should be deleted, but it was not in this case. A peculiar situation. The loophole is that if an article is under deletion and there is no consensus you have to vote, but if you claim consensus is there (and it wasn't there) and the article is deleted (no matter how, for example avoiding to vote claiming consensus is reached) at that point you need to have consensus to put it back. It's not just that, there is more. Actually Aranzulla could even be on tiwikipedia as a relevant writer if you assume it fits these conditions, and here you have an ongoing debate about the sort of relevance of the reviews of the book he published.
But, if you want to avoid digging into that (because as wikipedians we use other wikis as a starting point NOT as a source per se), just look at the sources. As a person with similar amount of edits here than those you have, but who can understand the language of the sources, I looked at them. Consider a country of a similar size, e.g. UK. Think about somebody who is described three years in a row by TV and radio and newspaper of such country as "the guru/king/etc of problem solving" both by pop culture and economic sources. That's notable by enwiki standards, here the source are in another language, but it's the same situation. As wikipedians we should trust the sources.--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:50, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article about a series of online conferences in the 1990s was created by the conference organiser. Per the article itself much of the conference materials have not survived. The only online refs I can find are authored by the same individual. Note that a search for ‘Elecsim’ brings up materials on simulation models of the same name, not about the conferences. Nothing to demonstrate that the topic passes

  • Delete: The main problem with this article is its lack of content. The subject of the article is a conference, but the article briefly mentions the circumstances surrounding the subject instead of the subject itself. To wit: What was the subject of the conference? Who participated? What was discussed in it? What was the nature of its "success" that led to three other followups?
    What impact did it have on the industry? (Did it actually impact an industry?) In the language of analogy, this article's affair is like the case of a person wanting to make steak; he/she prepares everything needed, except meat! Flowing dreams (talk) 05:19, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

Similar to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of political figures of Upstate New York and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of emigrants from Upstate New York, this is biographical listcruft, an overly granular fork of List of people from New York (state).

  • Delete. This page looks like a hoax, as some of the facts or figures are quite unreliable or not properly referenced. This person is virtually unknown in Greece, so I do have doubts about the writers of the article -- it could be him, which means there is a strong conflict of interest.

  •  Comment: Even the Greek Wikipedia article was deleted more than six years ago as users cited the lack of notability and references [1]. Surprisingly, more than ten newly registered users showed up in 2013 to oppose the possible deletion of the article, resulting in canvassing suspicions. It really doesn't make any sense that this page remained online for so many years. Let's fix that. Glucken123 (talk) 11:44, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
