This article was previously proposed for deletion about eight years ago. Editors elected for a borderline keep. It does not seem the article has improved since. It relies predominantly on dead links, primarily to promotional and other
- Keep I disagree with the initial assessment. The existing references, albeit dead, show that the subject meets WP:GNG as they are significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. There are some ROUTINE entries, but not all are. The more recent references just expand the concept. As a candidate, the subject does not meet POLITICIAN though.

- Delete. To be fair, the problem here isn't really that the references are dead links — we are allowed to cite stuff to unlinked print-only coverage, so dead links aren't the end of the world if the content can be recovered from an archiving database like ProQuest or newspapers.com. Rather, what's more definitive here is that virtually all of the primary sources (and a local-interest magazine listicle) rather than reliable or notability-making ones. And no, the fact that a few pieces of campaign coverage happen to exist does not in and of itself hand a candidate a GNG-based exemption from having to pass NPOL, either — every candidate in every election can always show a few pieces of campaign coverage, so if that were all it took to exempt a candidate from NPOL then NPOL would be inherently meaningless since no candidate would ever have to meet it anymore. So to actually qualify for an article, what he would have to show is a lot more reliable sources covering him in the context of his business career itself, and that's not what these sources are.

- Delete An interesting person who has been engaged in the community, but nothing suggests the subject passes WP:NPOL as an unelected candidate.

A fine effort by everyone involved, but the album is a minor curiosity and the one review at AllMusic doesn't quite add up to enough notability.

The result was delete. This article is sitting in a little bit of a grey area with respect to notability. The argument to keep rests on the subject meeting the guideline at
"subjects of standalone articles should meet the General Notability Guideline. The guideline on this page provides bright-line guidance to enable editors to determine quickly if a subject is likely to meet the General Notability Guideline". If that's what we apply here, notability clearly is not demonstrated, and so I am closing this as "delete". If people want to haggle over the potentially ambiguous differences in those pages, this isn't the place. Vanamonde (Talk) 18:36, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

This has gone through two previous AfDs, neither with any clear consensus. I'm inclined to argue that Cavanaugh is not notable due to a lack of significant sources about him specifically; in searching for materials I found some more prominent coverage in sources like [2][3] but I don't think they rate being 'independent' (he was signed with an MLG umbrella team, and he worked at Prima right around the time of the interview.) As such, leaving aside the question of whether he'd meet

- Keep Reading through the past two AFD, I'd like to point out that Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Sports_personalities is clearly met: "A sportsperson is presumed to be notable if the person has actively participated in a major amateur or professional competition". [4] and elsewhere do mention him being in these tournaments, notable professional gaming teams he has been on, all of which have their own articles by the way, and he is mentioned elsewhere although briefly. Dream Focus 17:30, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
- The second part of that notability guideline is and so is likely to have received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. There's no indication of significant coverage of the article subject alone, hence why I listed it. (I'd also frankly argue about applying "major" to most professional esports competitions, as until recently and still for many games they do not generate anything like the attention and press of 'traditional' sports. What's "major" for esports would not be considered "major" for a cricket player or football player, etc.) Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 15:01, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- The "presumed to be notable" is all that matters. As for how popular video game tournaments are, [5] " The 2018 Mid-Season Invitational tournament, a League of Legends tournament hosted by Germany and France, was the most watched eSports event, with a recorded 60 million unique viewers." Not sure how many people watched the Halo tournaments though. But you can't just dismiss it claiming it can't compare with traditional sports. Dream Focus 15:55, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete there is not enough coverage to show that he meets WP:GNG and as there are no criteria for gamers it is almost impossible to apply Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Sports_personalities as there is no international federation to classify competitions as being major. The tournaments he participated in are not in the list found by Dream Focus. And just as a reminder notability is not inherited so having been on a team that is bluelinked doesn't make him notable. --Dom from Paris (talk) 17:24, 23 August 2019 (UTC)]

- Keep. At first blush, this looks like WP:COATRACK, as WilliamJE says. But really, even ignoring the current claim, the 1867 and 1946 proposals are sufficient to make this notable. They are interesting, worthy of historical study, well-documented, and covered in multiple reliable sources. In short, it's a great candidate for an article. We'll need to be careful that it isn't used to coat-rack in Trump ridicule, but that's an entirely different question. The fact that it's only coming to light as a result of the Trump thing does not disqualify it from being as a notable and article-worthy subject. TJRC (talk) 23:24, 16 August 2019 (UTC)]
- Luckily, then, this isn't news. And the only thing that is coming to light here is that Wikipedia didn't have any of it, not even as a result of the great tussle over bilateral relations articles years ago. History books have this. Indeed, they have it far better than the newspapers being cited here, do. I recommend the history books, as Gustav Rasmussen's response to the U.S. via its ambassador, which most definitely is known, is in them. ☺ As is a lot more besides. This does not even mention Henrik Kauffmann yet. Uncle G (talk) 02:07, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep but rename to a more sophisticated, timeless, scholarly, title (even a plural would be an improvement, as there have been more than one proposals). We should not necessarily create articles, nor name them, based on the White House's latest eructation and inevitable frenzied news spike that follows. Trump will inevitably tweet something next week that will cause a thousand newspapers to rabidly print iterations of the same story to get those precious mouse clicks, and Wikipedia will inevitably lurch to keep up with the drivel. Let's keep a broad picture in view. --Animalparty! (talk) 05:14, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

- Comment I checked out the French sources and I'm sitting on the fence here. A good part of them don't actually mention the subject but the sale of Chateau Lascombe to an insurance company and the claim "In 2001, with the American international investment firm Colony Capital, Yves Vatelot bought Château Lascombes" seems to be an embellishment of the truth, he had an undisclosed participation in the operation. According to this source [12] he was appointed as a consultant for the domaine but not General manager nor technical manager nor oenologist. So the claim "With the help of Michel Rolland and Dr. Alain Raynaud..." that gives the impression that he was the driving force behind the success is more than misleading. This source [13] says that the chateau was put back on the rails by Dominique Befve and no mention of Vatelot. There are no mentions of Valelot's particpation in the Buffalo Grill operation in any reliable sources but he was named on the Conseil de surveillance [14] as a representative of the shareholders. I am on the fence because of these sources [15] [16] [17] [18]. He saw his fine in the Reignac advertising affaire reduced to a suspended one of €8,000 from €15,000. The advert was seen as being very cheeky and thumbed its nose at the Grand Cru Classés and went a bit too far in legal terms. --Dom from Paris (talk) 15:23, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

please submit only one !vote - your nomination serves as a "delete", and you then submitted a second "delete".Netherzone (talk) 19:53, 16 August 2019 (UTC) - Comment #2 to Rasi56 - in Articles for Deletion, we always try to preserve all actions/edits in the debate. Instead of deleting a mistake (as you did in your second !vote), use the "strike out" code to cross-out a mistake or a change of opinion. Only cross out your edits you wish to change, not others. That way the conversation and debate is preserved. See here to see how it is done. Hope that is helpful info. Netherzone (talk) 22:36, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

- I think you misunderstand notability. A simple Google search will come up with plentyh of coverage about his court appearances. The Asaia Media Forum award was presnted by Kabir to the winner, I gave this as an example because it gives a section of biographical info about Kabir (and the reasons he was respected enough to be presenting). Sionk (talk) 09:04, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

As the editor of a major English language national daily, Nurul Kabir has been really in the forefront of defending media freedom in Bangladesh despite the persecution he faced both legally and physically while others usually succumb to pressure as we saw during the rule of the military-backed Caretaker Government from January 2007 to December 2008. He is notable enough not only as an editor but also as a writer since he authored several books.

- Keep, now it's back at AfD again and the previous Afd had no input at all. It's impossible to believe that a national party that contested two US presidential elections wouldn't be notable.

- Merge to WP:WHYN: "We require 'significant coverage' in reliable sources so that we can actually write a whole article, rather than half a paragraph or a definition of that topic. If only a few sentences could be written and supported by sources about the subject, that subject does not qualify for a separate page, but should instead be merged into an article about a larger topic or relevant list." ----Pontificalibus 13:41, 16 August 2019 (UTC)]

This is not IMHO a significant award as per WP:ANYBIO. This documentary series deliberately mixes notable and anonymous women that the documentary makers find inspiring. We have already discussed such lists (Forbes etc) and concluded that they do not confer notability without more in depth coverage in other sources.

Hurricanes and the Making of Caribbean History
Needs a fundamental rewrite to be encyclopedic. No evidence that this needs a separate article from Atlantic hurricane and many of the statements are just wrong. Jasper Deng (talk) 00:51, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete Normally I find myself arguing that a rewrite would do an article good no matter what, but in this case I don't think anything can improve this article past the criteria for deletion because even the title is non-encylopedic, and any variation of the title will remain that way. Doesn't even deserve a redirect to Atlantic Hurricane Season because of the non-encyclopedic nature of the title. Sam-2727 (talk) 03:27, 16 August 2019 (UTC)]

- Keep A notable topic. We don't seem to have any articles detailing the social, economic and environmental impact of tropical cyclones, and this impact is likely to vary considerably from one region to another, justifying region-based articles on the topic.

- Hello Meatsgains!
The reason cited for the deletion of the page is "Non-notable organization lacking significant coverage in reliable sources". IAPSS is the largest association for political science students around the world and it partners with bigger associations like International Political Science Association and so on. But you're right, the association doesn't have enough coverage.
Maybe we could simply put a notice at the beginning of the article to indicate that some references are missing instead of deleting the entire thing?
Looking forward to your reply!

- The deleted version of the article had such notices for six years, from 2013 onwards, to zero effect. An AFD discussion is the time to actually show some sources. Uncle G (talk) 06:38, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
- Hello again!
Changes have been made to the page and sources have been added and there were contributions made other users. It'd be great if we could keep the IAPSS page.
Let me know what you think and what else should be done!

- Keep This article must not be deleted. DGG states that all the resources in this article are press releases but i don't think so. All the resources used in this article are reliable and on trusted news websites. These are not press releases. Abhinav Kumar is also a notable personality in India. Every Indian family knows him as "Trivaago Guy". He is not only in marketing job. His notability justifies due to his ad film of Trivaago. AfD.]
- Wht do you consider the best reference. Perhaps it is the Business Standard, but reading it, it's a press release, not responsible coverage. And why shouldthere be any better: Kumar's position is to appear in advertisements, and that's what all the references report, mostly in puree notices. DGG ( talk ) 22:50, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete While considering this I went from 'delete' to 'keep' and finally back to 'delete'. The better sources cluster around the end of 2017 and focus on his sensation as "Trivago Guy" but there is not, in my opinion enough coverage to pass NACTOR or enduring enough for GNG. He pretty much can be considered in light of WP:BLP1E, which is what brought me back to 'delete'. The later coverage, his board appointment, all looks, as DGG notes, to be press releases which seek to capitalize on his earlier notability.]

Insufficient notability. Nearly all the references do not mention the company/product - they are about IV hydration in general. This article was rejected multiple times at Draft:Vida-Flo (IV hydration therapy) for lack of notability, but the article creator just bypassed the AFC process to create it in article space with the same content.
