Unsourced article about an online game, tagged for notability since 2010. I can’t find any sources that would support notability. Mccapra (talk) 22:57, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • [1], [2], [3] each look likely to be reliable. The last one is more than just a review. There appear to be plenty of other RS reviews out there. So keep for now, but I'll be happy to defer to a video game expert who can explain why those don't count toward WP:N (I don't know much about that area). Hobit (talk) 01:05, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Thanks Hobit. Like you I’m not sure what would generally be accepted as RS in this domain. My assumption was that more or less every game released would get an initial review on gaming sites, but in looking for something more solid perhaps I was setting the threshold too high. Mccapra (talk) 04:31, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The only one of those sources that's reliable for notability purposes is the Engadget review. Gameranks.com isn't mentioned at
    WP:VG/RS, and that page is hardly a review - it's more of a game guide, and those aren't really indicative of notability considering anyone can and will write one. Gamasutra is reliable, but that article is an interview; interviews don't contribute to notability because they aren't secondary sources. It's not enough to maintain an article. ♠PMC(talk) 07:32, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

Comment @Hobit: As you say there are other links that come up in a google source. From memory they were mostly discussion forums and dumps of a user guide. However there was nothing that looked to me like sustained coverage in reliable independent sources. Thanks Mccapra (talk) 16:03, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This was previously kept on the assertion that it is the largest publisher of pet magazines in the US. I can't verify that.

  • Keep: Since Wikipedia RS policies keep editors searching for sources for citations, and the names of the various Lumina publications and their acquired companies keep coming back up, this article should be kept and upgraded. Books by BowTie Inc are mentioned in 25 Wikipedia articles, including animal magazines, motorcycle news, birds, reptiles, and agriculture. Cat Fancy magazine is mentioned in 109 Wikipedia articles. There's more, but I'll stop with just that. Normal Op (talk) 15:55, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong keep. Cunard gave us an avalanche of reliable sources. It's literally an embarrassment of riches. There is no doubt whatsoever it meets GNG. Cunard went all out to give us reliable sources and we should reward and respect his efforts. Knox490 (talk) 02:48, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

An article about a fairly ordinary local club (stated in one of the references to have 17 members) without any evidence of satisfying the notability guidelines. Most of the references are either pages on the club's own web site or else pages that don't even mention the club, and the rest don't give it substantial overage, or are very minor local coverage. The article is also distinctly promotional in parts, and would need significant pruning if it were kept. The article was tagged for notability and lack of sources a year ago, and it is no better now. (The article was given a deletion proposal (PROD) in August 2018, but that was contested by the article's creator.)

  • Comment I have an idea that we generally keep articles about well established local press rather than expecting multiple references. Discussions about specific newspapers would usually be about controversy, scandal or closure so coverage tends to be scant.

Article was nominated for PROD by

WP:NPOL. StarHOG's rationale: The subject's notability seems to be limited to statements made by the subject. A Google search returned twitter and facebook pages before any 3rd party sites. Additionally, many of the Google search 3rd party sites were to hire the subject as a paid speaker.

I'll presume that this legitimate content will not again be reverted.

This is a misleading redirect, because dūda is a string instrument, whereas dūdas is a wind instrument. The thesaurus does say dūdas can also be plural for the name of the string instrument, but not that dūda can be the singular for the name of the wind instrument, because the name of the wind instrument is a plurale tantum.

This musician continues to be non-notable for all the reasons supplied during the previous deletion discussion, which ended in the article's deletion. There are no further indications of notability since the previous discussion. Google returns 53 hits for "Lannie Battistini", all of them affiliated, social media, music download, ticket sales and/or database-driven websites, or routine, local current events listings. The few sources supplied with the article don't come close to establishing notability. The Olga Tañón credit, for which I find no independent coverage, adds no more to notability than it did the last time we talked about it. I recommend deletion and salting.

I suppose reading the section on 'Academics' I interpret the 'a widely recognized contribution' part of the notability criteria as being fulfilled by the peer reviewed academic contributions to the field.

  • KEEP: The Blanchard piece in Vice calling her “the cult writer who is changing gender theory”; the Thom piece in Slate; the Srinivasan piece in the London Review of Books all establish notability. And let’s be clear, this note posted by Muriel Mary when she proposed this AfD is blatantly false: “Has written some blog posts which have been commented on by other blog writers but no evidence of substantial independent coverage.” It’s not a good look to start off a deletion discussion with falsehoods, and it makes one question whether the nominator for deletion has an unspoken agenda. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DeRossitt (talkcontribs)

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

This page is a half-baked attempt to create a new article by copy-pasting another page and then updating. I think the text copied was from List of countries by Human Development Index (2009). The article was then heavily edited by IPs over the next couple of weeks, adding data, much of which definitely has not come from the 1998 report and some of the country names are from the 1980s, no longer existing. This has previously been declined for speedy deletion, and I declined it for prod in 2016, but now wish I hadn't. I removed some of the more glaring disinformation but lost enthusiasm and the page has remained riddled with errors for years. It is also a magnet for IPs who try to update it to the current HDI for their country, or even just try to make their country look better. The current consensus seems to be have a table for each previous years' HDI in the Human Development Index article. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of countries by Human Development Index, 2005 came to a similar conclusion. Merging to the HDI article is not a good idea as the data on the page is completely untrustworthy. Anyone wishing to include the 1998 HDI would be much better off taking the information directly from the UN report itself. SpinningSpark 11:37, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Response: This is the one of two main political parties for Auckland Council in Waitakere and the information is important to voters. There are numerous articles that have been referenced from New Zealand's major newspapers. The other main party for Waitakere has put its information up now, and now is trolling to have this entry about their competitors taken down. The North Shore area parties for Council (Shore Action) also has a facebook page. The format for the Shore Action page is the one followed for consistency.

Creating a post doesn't mean you have a conflict of interest with a post. I have no conflict of interest. And the post shows no bias. If you have a specific point to make about the post itself or a concern you should raise it rather than ad hominem attacks. The entry is factual about a local party who is running for local office created in the same style as other local parties in Auckland's election . I note that the competing party has put up a wikipedia entry at the same time that the request for the deletion of this page occured. This seems to be a political act to deny the public the right to public information about the local candidates and their parties. It's unclear what the deleters conflicts are. Again their must be consistency on Wikipedia.

@The Notability requirements for political parties talk page seems to have not reached a final conclusion. However, WestWards does meet the criteria being discussed. Have campaigned for 2 years. Has an elected member who has numerous articles in New Zealand's national papers which have been included. Is the leading opposition party. To not include smaller parties or independent parties would be anti democratic and deprives voters of a fair choice.

    • We're not voting on those other parties here, and I might not vote if they came up for AfD, but both have multiple people elected to local bodies at regular elections, whereas WestWards has a single person elected in a by-election, which had a much lower turn-out of electors.

  • Strong Keep per all the reasoning from the 2017 deletion attempt (does it have to be repeated? To the Closer, please read the 2017 attempt, or if the nominator prefers I could cut and paste my comments here - [Edit to boldface as this hasn't been done as far as I know, 25 August:] by the way, Popcornduff, please notify all of the participants of that discussion). At over 800 views a day this page is one of the most popular pages concerning one of the classic 21st century films, and of course the characters are notable (Tarantino and Thurman are now talking seriously of filming the long-awaited third film). This is one of those "here we go again" nominations, and hopefully will be the failed second attempt to Kill it. Randy Kryn (talk) 10:40, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per above, very notable film and this can be considered a split from the parent article that would make that page too long if it was merged back, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 12:57, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or merge There is no real secondary coverage of these characters. The previous AFD's keeps pointed out that this could be trimmed and beefed up with sources- that has not happened. The article extensively duplicates the films' plot, which is not appropriate. Outside of the standalone article for the bride, the few secondary details can be added to the Cast list on the film page or in the casting pages. ---Masem (t) 20:04, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Although it can't be used as a source, this page on Wikipedia is one of, if not the, principal pages on the internet for the topic. There are so many prominent characters in the films that references would be mostly the same references for the reputably sourced film reviews. The page has 800-plus readers a day, even after being loaded down at the top with giant templates. It is a good overview of the topic. Merging is always possible, but that move most of the already existing text and images and would mean making the Kill Bill pages much longer. Keeping this page seems the logical way to go.

  • WP:ITSUSEFUL is not an arguement. You're free to "rescue" this information over to, say, Fandom.com/Wikia. For fictional works/etc. our goal is to summarize real-world importance, not their in-universe importance. And I'll re-iterate: most of the details on these characters are regurgitations of the plots of the two films, which is unnecessary duplication. Take out the plot-related elements and you have almost nothing at all left. --Masem (t) 22:36, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • I am pointing out your argument is based on that essay. I am arguing there's no secondary sourcing thus this fails the GNG. Yes, articles on characters will repeat some of the plot of a film, but we absolutely do not need full a full extent of the character's role in the film. And no, if you consider the plot already on the movie pages, then you don't need ANY of the plot given by these entries, they all are duplicating info.

  • We don't keep pages because of popularity, so 800, 8000, or 8 million page views a day means squat. We are looking for secondary sources on this character, per
    WP:WAF. The Bride has it, so she has a separate article but this one does not. If this is such an important film, it should be easy to show secondary sourcing that talks only of the characters. Without sources, it fails several policies, and we're not going to keep just because its a popular page and/or a unique page on the Internet. --Masem (t) 00:46, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

Is this generally followed by deletion noms? Any of them? If not, the entire structure of the deletion section of Wikipedia should maybe be taken down for reconstruction.

  • Delete: I voted keep during the first AfD, but I agree with the above deletion votes. Also, upon further reflection, a majority of the sources provided in the first AfD deal more so with the film rather than the characters themselves so I am less certain about how the list meets WP:GNG. I could possibly see some characters (like O-Ren Ishii) spun off into independent articles, but that is a completely different conversation.

These are essays about the films, and don't focus on the individual characters discussed in the article. If you stuck to those sources you'd have almost nothing to write about. Try it.

I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion. I just opened the first link, turned to a random page, and found this passage:

"Though O-Ren consciously embodies and draws power from her multiple identities, she does not anticipate Beatrix's ability to do the same. When Beatrix challenges her, Thurman's Anglo features have been overlaid with Asian markers in inter- and intra-textual cues: she speaks Japanese, carries a Hanzo sword, and wears a yellow jumpsuit that cites Bruce Lee's film Game of Death (1978). O-Ren, though, only reads Beatrix as the American tourist she initially pretends to be with Hanzo, remarking, 'Silly Caucasian girl likes to play with samurai swords.' She sees only Beatrix's ethnicity, and discounts the history, training, and discipline that transformed Beatrix Kiddo into Black Mamba. O-Ren realizes her racialized naivete too late. After Beatrix wounds her in their duel, she apologizes in Japanese 'for ridiculing you earlier.' She is soon thereafter scalped, recalling the decapitated mob boss she punished for a similar underestimation."

"Though Vernita's death is staged first in the film, it is significant that Beatrix defeats her after battling O-Ren - as O-Ren is a version of Beatrix's present quest, Vernita is a glimpse of what Arlene Plympton's future would have looked like. Vernita, now living as 'Jeannie Bell,' a 'Pasadena homemaker,' has completely jettisoned her live as DiVA 'Copperhead.' She has married a doctor, lives in a well-appointed middleclass neighborhood, and even has a four-year-old daughter, as Arelene would have had the massacre not taken place."

I could continue much longer, but I don't want to get into copyvio territory. These sources are filled with these kinds of detailed analyses of individual characters in the film.
‑Scottywong| [prattle] || 20:32, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
An excerpt from the second link:

"This exchange is meant to be funny, but it also dramatizes two important character traits of Kiddo. She is not only a highly trained martial artist bent on revenge, but she also has deep maternal qualities that extend even to the child of her enemy. Likewise, the fact that Kiddo can quickly 'turn off' her immediate desire for revenge speaks to the professional nature of her martial ability. That is, although her quest for revenge is deeply personal, here we see it conducted in an almost detached manner. In this way, although the script uses her ability to do violence as a definitive character trait, so too it emphasizes her ability to choose not to do so. This subtle distinction later contrasts with the actions of other characters who have difficulty not being violent. In particular, Elle Driver / Darryl Hanna later expresses great dissatisfaction with not being allowed to kill the comatose Kiddo. And, most definitively defining a character, almost everything that we discover about Bill / Carradine in both films suggests that he is thoroughly given over to violent actions. In fact, he even describes himself as 'a murdering bastard.'"

‑Scottywong| [babble] || 20:36, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The first passage you quote from describes the characters in terms of the protagonist; in other words, they are not the focus of the essay. You'd be hard-pressed to stretch that sort of thing to an entire article about all of these characters.
The second quote is about the protagonist,

No one is suggesting that we write an entire article about Vernita. However, I would argue that there is more than enough material in these sources to justify a paragraph on the character in this article. However, to add this much detail on each individual character into the main article on the film would cause that article to become too long. Therefore, this article is the most appropriate place for this information. ‑Scottywong| [confabulate] || 20:48, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think, if you actually examine these sources, it's difficult to mine them for enough specific discussion of all the characters in the Kill Bill films sufficient to justify this page. They aren't the focus of the papers.
talk) 20:56, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

I think we'll have to agree to disagree. These are not just "essays about the films", which "don't focus on the individual characters discussed in the article". The characters only exist in the films, so naturally the articles will need to discuss what happens in the films and how that shapes the characters. As shown above, there are sources that focus heavily on the characters, their relationship to each other, as well as the meaning and symbolism behind the characters and their actions in the films. ‑Scottywong| [soliloquize] || 21:05, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Looking these over, to put this information to try to justify keeping characters before using it to establish a Themes section of KB seems to be an extremely poor use of these sources. It's pulling the needles out of the haystack and missing that the haystack has more appropriate value to us. It would be better to devlope some type of themes for the KB to thus then establish where characters would fit in those themes. --Masem (t) 04:20, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Difference of opinion. I think Scottywong's well thought out and researched statement should be enough to save this popular page from deletion. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:17, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete not because I don't believe that there could be a list, but because there needs to be enough content from secondary sources for multiple characters to be split off from both film articles. List of Smallville characters is a Good Article that shows this possibility. While this is only two films, a lot can be (and has been) written about Tarantino's films. Back in 2011, I compiled references to use at Talk:Kill Bill/references, and it seems extremely likely that there could be at least a healthy paragraph or two for each character across both films. However, this needs to be established by an editor. If there can't be much more than in-universe detail here, then the scope should necessarily collapse back to the individual films' articles. (Though I would not be unopposed to an article whose scope covers both films, including listing characters that appear in one or the other or both, accompanied by brief descriptions.)

I like how the only definition of "dubious" is "doesn't have a first name listed". On a serious point, hopefully one day future research will uncover these... Bobo. 08:22, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The list was compiled in 2017 by going through Category:Indian cricketers and Category:Sri Lankan cricketers. The English list was added recently by Harrias. Dee03 09:15, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Gotcha. My old userpage may have some left after you've gone through those lists. Bobo. 09:29, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - As I've pointed out before, this whole thing should be a lesson more in making sure established articles are cited, etc. If CA and CI are "inappropriate" references in and of themselves, shouldn't we be fixing the established articles? Let alone those lists I provided of Test cricketers without any sources... Bobo. 07:32, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, you are right. But I did not say that CA and CI sources are "inappropriate"; they come in handy while expanding pages on notable cricketers. But they are inadequate to show that the cricketer would pass GNG, especially when they do not reveal any information beyond stats taken from a scorecard. Additionally,
WP:PAGEDECIDE can be applied for these single-appearance cricketers. Dee03 08:15, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply
]
And again, sadly, this comes back to the inconsistency in application of GNG. The only thing that still angers me is that you are expecting "more information" than is present - as any further information in the article would be superfluous. If the criterion you're working to is "must have a first name present", then this is a horrid application of the rule.... Bobo. 08:18, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I have never stated that absence of first name is the reason for sending these articles to AfD. Having a full name does at least give us the chance of finding more sources. Unfortunately, the CA profiles of these "first name missing" cricketers seem to be filler links for scorecards, leading to verifiability concerns. Dee03 08:29, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please forgive me for the late response. I would create them myself, but... *shrug* At some point I did have them all on my sandbox, but I would have to go back to a very old version of it... For stats' sake, of the 11 players who played in the only first-class game of Gwalior Cricket Club, they made the following number of first-class appearances (in total): 1, 2, 1, 65 (Janardan Navle, a Test cricketer), 9, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1. Bobo. 05:38, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If, as I always wished could happen, we could make lists of people who played for first-class teams, then I would want a fully inclusive - team-by-team - approach. At least if every team with a "category" had a list of first-class players, this could serve as a header sentence for that category where players' names had been deleted.
Let me tick off the easiest example: these are cricketers who played for Gwalior Cricket Club.
  • RD Mathur
  • Balbhadra Singh
  • Roop Singh
  • Janardan Navle
  • DK Yarde
  • SN Kunzru
  • Daya Shankar
  • Ram Singh
  • CN Haksar
  • Khanwilkar
  • Afzal Ahmed
(Yes, I chose the easiest example, a team which only played a single first-class match. Jack and I both agreed - at the time - that any Indian team which had played first-class cricket should have a "List of"... article - of course these days opinions are probably different..! And given the palaver we've gone through lately with "List of X cricketers" list, at least with a team who have played just one first-class match, an eleven-player list would be fully complete..!)
