That would point the redirect towards and entirely different subject matter; the target proposed target article is about the actual topic of stamps used in airmail, while the title of this article concerns a specific (but non-notable) organization which is organized for the appreciation of stamps used in airmail. Furthermore, the organization is not even mentioned in the proposed target article. This would not by any means be an appropriate circumstance for a redirect,
WP:CHEAP or no. Perhaps you meant to suggest a merge? If there was a merge of content, then the redirect would have a basis, but as there are no RS here, you might hit resistance to even mentioning this group in the proposed target article. Snow let's rap 21:40, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • Comment. The Asian Games which Asadian competed in was The 5th and 6th Asian Junior Wushu Championships which are held every two years and not the Asian games which are held every 4 years. the mistake was acknowledged and edited.
as Asadian's History of Wushu Career is fully displayed on the official website of Iranian Wushu federation, it is undeniable that every medal that he managed to get in the tournaments which are mentioned here are legitimate and are in fact reconginzable competitons. the external link to this page can confirm this.
Although his results in other competetion didn't "meet the eye" he still managed to achieve medals in World Wushu Junior championships and Asian Junior Wushu Championships which can't be simply ignored and overlooked because of his results in other competetions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vira.gh (talkcontribs) 17:28, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Thank you for clarifying that. No one is saying that he didn't win those medals, but that those medals don't confer notability. Junior competitions in martial arts have never been considered sufficient to show notability. Even Youth Olympic gold medalists have had their articles deleted.
    WP:MANOTE specifically talks about success "as an adult black belt" in competitions with a large number of competitors. I don't see any notability criteria that he meets. Papaursa (talk) 14:35, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply

The article is about a computer science academic at Carleton University. I am unable to find any significant coverage in independent sources, although this is somewhat expected for academics. I read the criteria at Wikipedia:Notability (academics), but I cannot find any that would apply in this case. The person is an associate professor. The h-index according to Google Scholar is 9 which is somewhat on the low side in computer science. Looking though the publications, I am not able to find any in tier 1 conferences/journals (please correct me if I am wrong here) or any one with a significant impact. It seems like the person is an early career academic and perhaps it is too soon to have an article. My apologies for nominating a newly created article for deletion.-- DreamLinker (talk) 20:55, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. Numerically, this is pretty close, but I find the arguments for delete stronger and far more convincing. Many of the proponents for keeping this point to

inclusion criteria
sections; that's a stronger stance and appears applicable to the page in question.

Editor's note: As I was considering closing this and drafting the above statement, three more !votes came in. It doesn't change my opinion of the consensus, but I did consider note closing and relisting it as an active discussion. However, this has been open for three weeks now, and I suspect the main reason more participants are coming is because this is the last AfD from the day (which is how I found it); that's supported by the fact that it has been relisted twice, once with no additional input, so I feel I am not shutting off an ongoing, productive conversation by closing this. ~ Amory (utc) 11:26, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep (Article author) I have written the article, because DeMuro is a well-known for reviewing cars. Numerous independent sources have written about him including
    Philadelphia Media Network and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The reach of his writings and reviews is reflected by the fact that he is mentioned as a source and in the text of a sizable number of articles on Wikipedia. - Tristan Surtel (talk) 20:16, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • I agree, the PW article is a fine source, but not enough on its own to show notability. As for the other two: First, that's only one source, not two. Second, both are about a single incident (each), not detailed discussion of his life. They are far more about cars than him. Further, any use of BI as a source must be closely scrutinized. See the editorial disclaimer covering the website. Having written books in and of itself is not enough to meet AUTHOR. Again, I would be happy to agree to draftify this to allow you to find better sources. John from Idegon (talk) 08:36, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • That first Business Insider article has been written by senior correspondent and author Matthew DeBord. The article indeed discusses cars, because that is what DeMuro is known for. It is about his experience owning, reviewing and writing about the Ferrari 360 Modena, and I would say Doug DeMuro is more than a detail in that article. Another article is from CNBC. - Tristan Surtel (talk) 09:15, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

    Comment @User:ImmortalWizard I couldn't find any actual sources to support GNG in my search. The current references used in the article are as follows: 1) a memorial on FindaGrave.com (Primary); 2) a link to a now-defunct website but the url appears to focus on the names of parks and highways; 3) memorial on FindaGrave.com, this time for his father (Primary); 4) a link to Ancestry.com with general information about his grandfather; 5) his grandfather's memorial on FindaGrave.com (Primary); 6) non-linked election results; 7) his wife's memorial on FindaGrave.com, masked as a newspaper article in the sourcing; 8) Stewart's basic info on Ancestry.com; 9) what appears to be an unlinked reference to a centennial brochure about Webster Parrish, LA; 10) another dead link for the now-defunct website, this time about a historic house that was owned by one of his ancestors; 11) A PDF that establishes that his half-brother (not Stewart himself) was a member of the LA House of Representatives; 12) Stewart's basic info on Ancestry.com again; and 13) and another memorial on FindaGrave.com. All of the findagraves are technically linked to newspaper articles, but they are local funeral announcements and obits and don't constitute significant enough coverage. Most of them aren't event about the subject. The page's creator, who has since been banned, was known for reference-spamming to make the articles appear more substantiated when they actually weren't.

  • Delete. Being president of a smalltown local school board is not a claim of notability that gets a person over
    WP:GNG. GNG is not simply a matter of counting the number of footnotes present in the article and keeping anything that has more than two of them — GNG tests for depth, geographic range and context, not just number, but (as is almost always the case with Billy Hathorn specials) the sourcing here isn't cutting it at all. The majority of the sources here are genealogy, not journalism, and even the ones that are actual journalism are obituaries of his relatives, not journalism about him. This is not how you reference a smalltown school board trustee as notable enough for Wikipedia. If this were Louisianapedia I probably wouldn't care, but then again I wouldn't be participating in a Louisianapedia in the first place as I know far too little about Louisiana to have anything to contribute to that — but nothing here is evidence that he's earned a place in an international encyclopedia at all.

It's unclear if this album ever existed to any degree. The sources provided are 1) a photo caption of Stills at a recording session, 2) a biography that doesn't mention anything about an unrecorded Stephen Stills album, and 3) a music forum (not reliable). I wasn't able to find anything by searching for "unreleased Stephen Stills album" or Southern Cross (which is the name of a CSN song, but doesn't appear to have ever been an album name). Normally

WP:NALBUM would dictate that the article should redirect to the artist in case of no notability, but given that this is an unlikely search term and that it's unclear if this album existed in any capacity, I am nominating for deletion instead. signed, Rosguill talk 16:59, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete - We have seen this kind of thing before (e.g. this). Minor recording sessions that were never released get glamorized by fans into a legendary lost album. The nominator is correct that there are no sources indicating that these sessions developed far enough to actually be considered an album. The sessions themselves can be mentioned as a historical tidbit in the career of Stephen Stills. Fantasies of lost albums can be left at fan sites. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:46, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Deletion is not justified, especially not on notability grounds. The Wikipedia:Notability Guidelines state that "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list." A simple Google search of the terms "Ecole de droit de Sciences Po" reveals a host of articles concerning SPLS in many independent publications (higher education guides, well-regarded newspapers, YouTube videos created by people independent of SPLS and aimed at prospective students, professional websites used by lawyers...). The creation of SPLS has even given rise to scholarly articles/debates.

A few examples include:

The existence of a SPLS page cannot be contested on notability grounds.

It is true that the French page was proposed for deletion a few years ago. However, this decision concerned a page written entirely in French, and was made before several reforms aiming at granting increased independence to Sciences Po's graduate schools were implemented (see http://www.mondedesgrandesecoles.fr/frederic-mion-projette-sciences-po-a-lhorizon-2022/). The rationale offered for the deletion of the French WP page does not apply to the English page and, in any event, is much weaker in 2019.

While the French speaking public is likely to know about SPLS and the French higher education system in general, or have access to the relevant information online, such is not the case for the English speaking readership. A SPLS Wikipedia page with objective, independent and up to date information on this topic is therefore valuable. This is all the more true considering that in recent years, SPLS has enjoyed a larger appeal outside of France, leading many non French speakers to seek information on this institution.

It should also be noted that Wikipedia pages concerning a particular university's college, medical school, business school or law school are uncontroversial and seen as valuable to the public. The question is therefore whether SPLS - and indeed other Sciences Po graduate schools - enjoys a sufficient degree of independence from Sciences Po to justify a stand alone page. While this might have justified denying a stand-alone SPLS page a few years ago, this rationale is no longer valid. Sciences Po is engaged in a process of granting more and more independence to, on the one hand, its college and on the other hand, each of its graduate schools. SPLS (just like the Paris School of International Affairs) has become an important and independent part of Sciences Po. It delivers in its own name Honoris Causa degrees and attracts a large number of international students. It has its own faculty, student body and administration/governance. SPLS can therefore be considered as a stand alone part of Sciences Po, which justifies the creation of a stand alone page.

  • Comment Her projects are arguably as much tech as they are fashion because of the integration of the technology. There are a number of references from tech news sources. Wired, Motherboard, SXSW. She also displayed items for Lakme Fashion Week and Berlin Fashion Week, which are well-known. I've actually held back from adding much more material that comes from fashion blogs or sounded promotional. LovelyLillith (talk) 21:27, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. @LovelyLillith: I think you made the right call sticking to the best possible fashion references and avoiding blogs etc. She lives in a world between tech and fashion. Her tech is not notable enough to make her a "real" tech entrepreneur (her LED is not a notable techology), and Forbes articles are a red-herring in this regard. I think she is really LED-tech in fashion (e.g. applied tech), but we get back to the same issue of her strongest fashion reference being WWD? This is very borderline. She is not as un-notable as many other BLPs at AfD, where there is not a single solid RS, but in terms of "several significant independent RS" I feel we are "reaching" for it, which I don't think we should be doing in a BLP?

I created the article as I believe the range and frequency of its usage justifies its encyclopedic interest. I also believe the article provides sufficient context to demonstrate the relevance and context of the term.

The Simon Reynolds reference as published in his book Shock and Awe discusses the concept, but it keeps being removed by the nominator even though it is referenced and can be found on Google Books. There's no requirement for an online reference to be given, and the published book is more than sufficient.yorkshiresky (talk) 19:34, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Clearly there's countless examples of the term being used, as other users have noticed. This is a term I've seen a heck of a lot, and Ewing has used it frequently elsewhere such as on Freaky Trigger. A site specific Google search through the Guardian alone for the term reveals pages full of "imperial phase" being used, with a Take the Crown review also outlying how Tennant says an imperial phase ends. Doing the same site specific Google search with other websites like Pitchfork reveals lots of other uses, while this has a bit more detail on the phase of he who coined the term, for instance. Certainly a widely-used shorthand.--TangoTizerWolfstone (talk) 02:43, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • IF kept, article should be moved to
    Imperial phase (arts) to distinguish this from use of this phrase in sentences like: " the aggressive Imperial phase of Athenian foreign policy," " the aggressive Imperial phase of Athenian foreign policy," "1532, the imperial phase of the Ibero-African frontier began," "neither Britain nor France is completely out of its post-imperial phase," and so forth.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:52, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete with fire. Let's see here: made her screen debut in a show that didn't even exist for another five years, then had a one-off guest role, then played the lead in the Swedish version of a TV series that's not actually sourceable as ever having had a Swedish version in the first place — and never got an IMDb profile at all, let alone any reliable source verification of any of this.

  • Delete The best I can find is this promo for the show on Disney Channel Sweden, which appears to have the original Australian actresses, not her. I thought perhaps she might've dubbed a voice in the Swedish version as a stretch, but I can't find any evidence of even that. LovelyLillith (talk) 18:30, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I'm going to close this since this looks to be a fairly clear hoax. Here's the evidence: there's just no coverage out there for this person and the person who created the page was also making hoax edits like this, to try to add mention of another actress that looks to be a fairly clear hoax. There's also the claim of her playing a lead in a Swedish version of H2O: Just Add Water, which is suspicious given that there's no media or forum coverage of such an adaptation ever existing. It looks like there was a dub made per this forum post but there's no evidence of there ever being an actress by this name who performed the dub. Swedish can be searched via Google and a look for any sourcing that mentions Meyers with the show title and svenska bring up nothing except Wikipedia mirrors, which would make no sense unless the article was a hoax. There would be some sort of coverage for an adaptation and at the very least, there would likely be some mention of her somewhere on a forum. Then there's the most damning evidence of all, that she was on a show years before it even aired. The article says that the guy who came up with the show did so after working on the first season of Hannah Montana, which didn't premiere until 2006. If we wanted to get even more pedantic in pointing things out, HM got its start from an episode of That's So Raven that aired in 2005, a full year after this person would have supposedly performed as an extra in WoWP. Unless she and the entire production has real magic (in which case, please share) there's no way that any of this is real.
