Keep Meets
WP:NEO in that there are multiple reliable sources ([1] [2] [3]) that are about the term. The term also received significant coverage in this source. It has been used in various books, articles, and scholarly papers. Notably, in this passage that was published in Industrial and Labor Relations Review
:

Terms such as “

otter,” “swish,” and “twink

” differentiate between gay men of different physical appearance.

each term listed currently has its own Wikipedia article (except for "

otter

", which is a redirect).

Furthermore, deletion (especially if the article is salted and no redirect is allowed) would only further systemic bias. We allow an endless amount of articles on subcategories of homosexual males (Bear (gay culture), Castro clone, Chicken (gay slang), Chickenhawk (gay slang), Chub (gay slang), Daddy (slang), Queen (slang), Swish (slang), Troll (gay slang), Twink (gay slang)), but somehow a commonly used subcategory of homosexual females is dismissed as a "cutesy expression" and not worthy of even a redirect? --Surachit (talk) 20:52, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

South Derry Independent Republican Unit

South Derry Independent Republican Unit (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

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

This article is an insult to history, and should be deleted as should virtually all claims relating to it in relevant articles.
Firstly sources currently used in the article:

Although Willy Frazer isn't acceptable due to
WP:SPS
(in particular anything relating to Ian Milne who is a living person) I will include what he says for the sake of thoroughness: "Family ties linked those who would form the core of a vicious Active Service Unit centred around Bellaghy. Different permeations of this murder gang continued a reign of terror for over five years and were responsible for over thirty murders. Dominic McGlinchy Ian Milne, Thomas McIlwee and Benedict McIlwee are names which live in infamy in this area". There is nothing particularly useful about what he says. He does not confirm the name of the group, or the actual dates it existed.

Irishhistory.blogspot.com is not a reliable source under any circumstances, so I will not even bother to address any of the claims it makes especially as they offer no sources to support their claims and are contradicted by actual reliable sources.

BBC article on the dead of Francis Hughes is a reliable source, but does not even mention the independent group so is useless for our purposes.

Page 243 of Tirghra is about Thomas McElwee. It contains no information on his IRA (or "Independents" activity) prior to 1976, so is useless for our purposes.

Independent newspaper obituary on Dominic McGlinchey says: "Released the following year [1972], he became one of the IRA's most feared operatives. In the south Londonderry area he teamed up with another notorious terrorist, Francis Hughes - who was later to die on hunger strike - to form a unit which carried out many shootings and bombings". This sentence does not confirm that McGlinchey and Hughes unit was actually independent of the IRA. While it could be argued it is potentially ambiguous, most reasonable people would assume it to mean their teaming up happened in the IRA, not before".

CAIN is the 1994 chronology of deaths during the Troubles, so is useless for our purposes.

An Phoblacht interview with Ian Milne contradicts the basic premise that Ian Milne was even part of the so-called South Derry Independent Republican Unit. It has him born in 1954, joining the Officials version of na Fianna Éireann aged 16, and the "re-organised Irish Republican Army" (ie the Provisional IRA) a year later. This timeline has him in the IRA prior to 1973, and the article further says "Fortunately, Milne was part of the massive escape from Portlaoise Prison a couple of months later [in August 1974]. It was after the escape that himself, Francis Hughes and other IRA Volunteers formed a new military unit. In the following years, they were very active in the Six Counties." So this does not support the claim that Milne and Hughes were both part of a unit independent of the IRA.

Now for what other sources say about the so-called South Derry Independent Republican Unit, or the people who were supposedly part of it:

J Bowyer Bell "The Irish Troubles" page 539: "He [Francis Hughes] had joined the Officials, strong in the area, but left when they declared a cease-fire in 1972 and formed his own unit, the Unrepentants, which was incorporated into the Provos in 1974"

Richard English "Armed Struggle: The History of the IRA" page 198: "Originally a member of the OIRA, Hughes had left that organization after its 1972 ceasefire and had set up an independent unit in his native South Derry. This unit had then been accepted into the Provisional IRA"

Andrew Sanders "Inside the IRA page 156: "Originally from Bellaghy, he [Dominic McGlinchey] was interned in 1971 and on his release teamed up with future hunger striker Francis Hughes to form a deadly new IRA unit, the two pictured on a wanted poster issued by the RUC"

David Beresford "Ten Men Dead" page 115: "When the "Officials" declared their ceasefire in 1972, Frank [Hughes] his friends formed their own group, calling themselves the "Independents. The following year they threw their lot in with the "Provisionals", as it became apparent they had assumed the leadership of the physical force tradition in Irish Republicanism".". Pages 184-185 "He [Thomas McElwee] had been a signed up member of the Republican Movement from an early age, joining na Fianna Eireann-the youth wing of the IRA-at the age of 14. He subsequently joined Frank Hughes' "Independents" and followed him into the Provisionals".

Martin Dillon "The Trigger Men" page 122: "Yet even on his [Dominic McGlinchey] release in June '72, there was no apparent desire on his part to join the Official IRA or the fast-developing Provisionals. Instead he began associating with young men who had not formed any direct connection to physical force republicanism. Two of his closest associates were Ian Milne and Francis Hughes." Although vague about exactly when the trio joined the Provisional IRA it does state that they did, and their activity from then on was IRA activity. It details no armed activity prior to joining the IRA. Page 124: McGlinchey's stint as an operative ended within one year when he was arrested in a house in which weapons were stored. He was returned to Long Kesh and for 18 months made an effort to educate himself by reading and attending classes chaired by Provisional IRA leaders. On his return to South Derry to link up with Hughes and Milne, he was listed on security forces files as someone to be watched." The Argus state McGlinchey's weapons arrest was in 1973.

There is no evidence any organisation called the South Derry Independent Republican Unit (or Independent Republican Unit or anything else similar) existed from 1973 to 1976 with Francis Hughes, Dominic McGlinchey and Ian Milne as members who carried out armed attacks on the British Army, Royal Ulster Constabulary or anyone else. The organisation that verifiably did exist was called either "the Independents" or "the Unrepenants" and the only two named members were Francis Hughes and Thomas McElwee, (note: using "The Trigger Men" as a reference it could be inferred that the unnamed members of the group referred to by other sources were McGlinchey and Milne, but this would be
improper synthesis of sources) and the organisation carried out no documented attacks on anyone, and existed from (seemingly) 1972 (or potentially 1973) until 1973 or 1974. In my opinion it would be pointless to write an article using the actual reliable sources since all we are left with is an organisation with an unclear name, unknown size, two known members, unclear dates of existence and no known activity.

Just in case anyone wants a shorter, more digestible version of the reasoning above. The South Derry Independent Republican Unit article confuses two different periods of history. The first period was from roughly 1972-1973, when Francis Hughes, Thomas McElwee and unnamed others were part of an organisation independent of the Provisional IRA. The second, much more well-documented period of history, was after that organisation had been subsumed into the Provisional IRA, when Francis Hughes, Dominic McGlinchey and Ian Milne were an active triumvirate of IRA members.

Delete. The relationship between these individuals is dealt with in their respective biographies. Even if some or all of them acted together independently of the IRA, they were not a formal organisation with a title, and certainly not an abbreviation (SDIRU). The Actions section uses the Sutton index of deaths on CAIN as a ref, but Sutton attributes all of those killings to the IRA, not an independent unit. Scolaire (talk) 16:05, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I'm hardly a neutral party in this having written the article, but I obviously disagree that it doesn't meet
WP:N. The content of the website—not only the logos themselves but their evolution—is sourced in the given reliable citations more than just trivial mentions, along with articles that talk about the site itself. That's on top of a significant number of Wikipedia articles that use the website as a reliable source (usually to reference logos) and the increasing number of other websites that reference sportslogos.net for anything logo-related and even uniform related. Is it overwhelming notability at this point? No, but there is definitely ongoing and widespread coverage across various media outlets and sports beyond a few trivial mentions here and there. --JonRidinger (talk) 19:26, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

I have removed all the uncited material from the article, which doesn't leave a lot. Being the largest earthquake in a year doesn't make it notable - there was another 7.5 event on 14 May in Papua New Guinea, and analysis of the previous 20 years suggests that a larger event is very likely to occur (all of those years have M>7.5 earthquakes).

Another almost certainly bogus entry from the ever-unreliable Cardarelli book. No supporting evidence has been produced since the (orphan) page was created, but there is a clue to the actual origin here: User:Imaginatorium/Cardarelli#Stuck_(unit). This is not an English word for a unit, but a German word (Stück) meaning "item", and used for counting commodities rather as "piece" is in trading English. The German Wiktionary entry, likely to be more comprehensive than the English one has no mention of Stück having a special meaning for wine. The quote from the British parliamentary proceedings of 1875 [7] suggests that the writer was not necessarily clear on what Stück means, and that was only the beginning of the confusion. @Reyk: Thanks for pointing this out. Imaginatorium (talk) 04:15, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete- per the well researched and argued nomination. Another howler from the discredited Cardarelli book. It's very clear what's happened here: back in the 1870s a German winery sold hock wine at such-and-such a price per piece (per Stück) and those containers happened to be around 260 gallons. That doesn't make Stück a unit of volume, any more than selling fun size candy bars makes "fun (unit)" a unit of weight totalling 21g. Reyk _YO! 07:07, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reyk suggested the nomination here and in other conversations with the nominator and so their fulsome praise for the nomination without declaring their own part in the matter is improper canvassing/collusion. Andrew D. (talk) 07:37, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I never asked or suggested that Imaginatorium take this to AfD. That is a lie. If you think I've done anything improper you know the way to ANI. Otherwise, quit trying to poison the well. Reyk _YO! 07:50, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Cardarelli is a respectable and reliable source, as recommended by NIST. The unit in this case is confirmed by other compendia of weights and measures such as Jerrard and The Economist's World Measurement Guide. The unit is a customary size of barrel and its specialist use in the production and trade of hock is confirmed by numerous sources including:

Hyatt's Handbook of Grape Culture

The Horticulturist

How We Weigh and Measure

The Economist desk companion

Ridley's Monthly Wine and Spirit Trade Circular

Encyclopedia of Wines & Spirits

Hotel Monthly

Wine, the Vine, and the Cellar

The latter explains that the word does originate from the German stück (piece) but that's not a reason to delete because the names of many customary units have a prosaic origin, e.g.
WP:PRESERVE, &c. Andrew D. (talk) 07:27, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply
]
I wonder what the bar is for "reliable". The investigation that Imaginatorium did into the book's "Old Japanese units of weight" shows Imaginatorium and me that this is not at all a reliable source. Are his and my standards for reliability skewed somehow, or are they unrealistically high? Is this book perhaps taken seriously merely because at the time of its publication (and for all I know even now) no other book in English had a similar ambition? There is at least one other book that does have a similar ambition; unfortunately for most people here it's in Japanese, but anyway it's 『単位の辞典』, by an actual metrologist. (A glance at the Japanese website of a multinational retail monopolist also shows interesting-looking Japanese-language alternatives, but I'm unfamiliar with any of them.) The Roman-letter index to the 4th edition of this book shows no "stuck", "stück" or "stueck". Its absence of course doesn't condemn it, but it does hint. ¶ That's an impressively long list of sources for the term's "specialist use in the production and trade of hock"; could you please quote an impressive example among them? I'd like to see signs of care, rather than unthinking recycling of factoids read elsewhere. -- Hoary (talk) 08:23, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'd also like to point out that Jerrard repeats the Salmarazd blunder from the Cardarelli book. This proves that Jerrard has merely cribbed lots of sketchy content from Cardarelli. Reyk _YO! 08:51, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ah. I have the 2nd edition of Jerrard and McNeill, pub. 1964 by Chapman and Hall, copyright the authors. But the latest edition is produced by the unreliable Springer. So be careful using the authors' names, since this is not theirs. ¶ I also would really like a quote from each of the sources listed above; if there really is a standard wine barrel size referred to in English as a "stuck", it should be added to the article on wine barrels.

Delete Articles must satisfy
WP:NOTDICT. The obscure sources above are copies of each other with the same fundamental flaw as Cardarelli, namely a desire to have a bigger list than anyone else, so anything resembling a unit ends up being included. Johnuniq (talk) 07:57, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

Keep So all these major publishers made a mistake, but some random person on the internet figured it all out? Wouldn't they update their books with corrected information if that were true? I found a book published in 1877 about wine uses this measurement on page 27 "He had become possessed of half a stuck (about 750 bottles) of really fine Steinberg Cabinet" and on the book's page 377 "about 40 tuns(stuck) of wine, each of 240 gallons." http://public-library.uk/dailyebook/Wine%20and%20wine%20countries%20-%20a%20record%20and%20manual%20for%20wine%20merchants%20and%20wine%20consumers.pdf Also in the chapter titled WINES OF GERMANY on page 91 "The use of these large casks has been discarded for many years, as it was found that the wines did not mature in them so well as in smaller ones. Those now in use are called "stuck," and contain about seven ohms, of thirty gallons each." Each time the word is used stuck has the double dot over the letter u, but copying and pasting that in Firefox turns it into a regular letter u. Dream Focus 11:33, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The purported English word "stuck" is not the same as an intended German word "Stück"; so far I have only seen evidence of use of the apparent German, typically written properly (italicised). Perhaps this is indeed a German usage... I don't know, but I do not think we can use Cardarelli (the book, not the man) to answer such questions. Imaginatorium (talk) 18:14, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There's original research going on behind the nomination here, which is fine, but I'm not aware of any secondary source that has concluded this unit is invented or does not exist, despite being referenced in multiple books. So, our sourcing suggests the unit does exist, but may be obscure. Many words are coined out of misinterpretations of other languages. But as to this AFD, is there really enough to have a separate article on this unit? Our goal as an encyclopedia is to serve our readers, and a one-sentence stub on this obscure unit does not strike me as useful to readers. It provides no context in this format.

Keep - Yes, "Stueck" means "piece" in German, but this does not make it not a unit if the references say it is one. It is quite possible that this began as a misunderstanding (if that's what it was) but became a customary unit later. For example you can see it being used as a unit here in 1972 and here in 1864. In fact, since it appears to have been used as a unit in the 1860's it's origin cannot have been in the 1870's. At the very least references show it being used as a unit more than a hundred years before Cardarelli, so it cannot be any mistake on their part. PS - as for the matter of whether this and many other articles about customary units should be moved to Wiktionary, I think that's a matter for another discussion.

Weak TNT delete Both Imaginatorium and FOARP are right on the substance; the problem is that even if what FOARP says is correct, we can't use it to fix the article and expand it beyond a useless, and misleading, substub without more reliable secondary sources. Imaginatorium's analysis of the bogus Cardarelli book's coverage of Japanese units is, AFAICT, accurate, which makes me extremely loath to trust it on stuff that isn't Japanese. We have the same problem with "Harvard University Press"'s Japan Encyclopedia, a completely ridiculous work that very few legit scholars actually looked at closely enough to see the problems, and the NIST source and others seem to have fallen into the same trap as most of the "reliable secondary sources" cited in our Japan Encyclopedia article (which was created in response to me bringing the book to RSN because I noticed the problems with it -- fortunately in that case at least one legit scholar in the real world had also noticed the problems). I am not opposed to the recreation of an article on this subject if reliable secondary sources actually discussing the problem can be located. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 02:18, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your response. I really suspect the claim of Weak TNT delete as apparently this is not a copyright violation or extensive cases of advocacy or undisclosed paid sock farms. I really suspect non-scientific methodology here based on personnel assumptions on units. Some authors of the resources mentioned in the article are scientists and refuting their claims needs a more scientific approach. Approving NIST is unreliable also needs more scientific approach. I appreciate Imaginatorium's work as he/she placed a lot of effort as a Wikipedia contributor, but, his work is much more un-reliable as there is a lot of personnel opinions are still there in his work. Somehow his/her work is leading to improving the articles. Japanese units are separate issue which is not relevant to this unit. Shevonsilva (talk) 17:16, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Shevonsilva: I think you should refrain from engaging in discussions like this until your English ability improves. I can pretty much figure out what you are trying to say, but almost none of it has any connection to my comment to which you are responding, which implies you didn't actually understand what I was saying. There was nothing in my comment about copyright violation or sock farms, and in cases like the above NIST remark I never talk about sources being "unreliable in general" but merely "wrong on this or that fact". there is a lot of personal opinions has nothing to do with what I wrote -- I said that he appears to be right (no opinions here; it's a question of factual accuracy) on at least some, and probably most, of the Cardarelli criticism. Japanese units are separate issue which is not relevant to this unit also makes no sense in this context; if a source is too old and makes too many errors, we can't hang an article on it, even if many of the errors are concentrated on a separate but closely related topic. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 05:12, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Shevonsilva: I can't really understand what you are trying to say either, but you appear to accuse me of "unreliable work".

Just fancy that, no. 37 Well, User:Shevonsilva added a couple of references to the article. One is "Jerrard", which is meaningless, since it is just Springer copy-pasting. The other is a new(!) superbig(!) "Dictionary of units", this time in three volumes, a total of around 2600 pages, and roughly $US400. The author is Jan Gyllenbok, a stub created by a SPA in 2018, the year of publication of this book, but who was previously mentioned in Historical metrology, itself a page with a curious history. Anyway, I can't help looking for his version of Japanese units, and wow is it wonky?! A series of purported weights based on the Imperial system, and based on a source called "CARD" has the following sequence (in bold; items separated by slashes; the apostrophe is clearly a left-quote): its ‘ko-koo / itho / ischo / its-go / pun / rin... apart from 'rin' this is more, new, garbage. ¶ But back to "Stuck": Cardarelli writes "stuck (hock)"... Gyllenbok reads this as "stuck or hock", and adds "for spirits". Hmm. More updates to follow... Imaginatorium (talk) 16:53, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update from nominator. I would like to withdraw the nomination; many thanks for those of the responses that are constructive. It is clear that this term exists, or rather that really the German term exists (so it isn't a "UK unit"), in various degrees of anglicisation. I have replaced the text with a stub, including a picture of a Stückfass; I'm not sure how to include some examples of use in (mostly) old books. But I think this should redirect to an article on the various German cask sizes.

Keep. I'm becoming increasingly skeptical of all these AfD nominations based on the premise that Cardarelli is an unreliable source. Finding a mistake in Cardarelli does not mean that suddenly the entire work has to be thrown out. No scholarly source has been put forward that criticises Cardarelli in any way, or even pointing out any of the claimed mistakes. I am especially concerned that it is now being argued that the highly regarded academic publisher Springer is also unreliable due them once being fooled into publishing hoax articles. The IEEE, also highly regarded, was also taken in by the same hoax. I note that the evidence offered above for this is an article in Nature, which merely reports that the offending articles had been withdrawn, not that the publishers were now considered intrinsically unreliable. Ironically, it was Nature, the premier science journal in the world, that published one of the most famous hoaxes of all time – Piltdown Man. Frankly, if we are to reject every book or article that comes from a publisher that has ever been taken in by a hoax, or has published an article with an error, we won't be left with much in the way of sources at all.

The idea that sources that put the unit in italics are to be rejected is just out-and-out nonsense. Sure, that might show that the source considers it to be a foreign word, but so what? It still is a unit and being a foreign unit does not detract from its notability on English Wikipedia. Finally, the Journal of the Society of Arts uses takes the German "stück" to be 1200 litres. This article is from 1873, so clearly is not copied from Cardarelli, it clearly uses the word to mean a unit of volume, not piece, and is clearly a reliable source, although doubtless they have been taken in by a hoax sometime in their history.

As mentioned before, I have the feeling that the page is self-promoting at a certain extent and despite improvements (a promo video ad?)

The claimed membership of this political organization remains unverified, 25.000 people; the so-called sources would be a local Italian newspaper and a national English newspaper which says the political organization claims to have that membership; on its own website there's no mention of any membership whatsoever

User Venz87, a contributor to the page, seems to be the president of this political association according to its own website, alias Andrea Venzon born in 1987; but of course, just an assumption

there are no elected members at any public level of any country where it participates to elections; an anonymous suggested in the discussion page to wait for the result of the next European elections, but my logics (which might well be wrong) brings me back to the logic that this article could be used indeed as a promo, rather than an encyclopedia content

Hi Finnusertop, thanks for your feedback. Obviously I did, and I think there's definitely a lack of coverage around newspapers, news, books and various outlets related to the topic, mainly political. You can verify it easily yourself, and I invite anybody else to do the same.
I'm happy I called the main contributors of the page to express their opinion here (basically all the ones which are advising to keep), they think the topic is well covered around, I question that. My conclusion is that Volt Europa is known almost exclusively from those who somehow deal with it daily and not to a wider audience.
I forgot a mention to Kleuske, I don't see any need to be bold in the discussion page, because I don't see the purpose for the article's discussion page to exist altogether.

It's a big contradiction that chess tournaments like EYCC and WYCC are notable but their winners are not notable. Important chess tournaments without important chess players.--Uldis s (talk) 13:42, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Not really a contradiction, there is always a bottom line where something is important but aspects of it aren't. An organisation can be notable without the chairman being notable, and so on. For these tournamens, we have articles on the championship as a whole, but not for individual championships by year, which indicates that this is not a truly important title. It even has an U8 category, we should not be creating articles for 7 or 8 year old chess players (in fact, I'll go and nominate

Keep for now, due to the ongoing Smriti Irani issue. Submitter should clarify whether the current controversy has anything to do with the nomination (such as, the news articles made the editor aware of the school). Maybe submit the article for deletion again after the current controversy over her education has passed; otherwise people will say we are biased on our politics, or that the deleting was done to help or hurt someone politically.

Keeping the article helps the politician, removing it hurts the politician. Because the politician was caught falsely inflating her education earlier, she has highlighted her status as an alum of this school (not the same one as in the scandal) in an apparent attempt to showcase her top-notch background and maybe distract from the scandal. Keeping the article raises the status of the school, complementing her recent effort at damage control, deleting it does the opposite.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 18:26, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The 19:37, 6 April 2019 by User:ToMt edit on the article added a single third party reference to the school. Granted, it was about Smriti Irani. So I looked on Google News: In 2015, the school was attacked 6 times in possible sectarian violence, leading to enhanced security measures, and also a special, Bollywood-inspired team, although later on the motivation was said to be theft.

Comment - The above being said, the question is whether the subject meets community standards for an article. I say it does. We've had numerous RfCs over the years trying to delineate a written standard and indeed we do periodically change the written standard.

Keep -- We normally allow articles for Secondary Schools (which this is). This was to some extent a pragmatic policy as pupils are likely to want to create articles about their own schools. As an English medium school, this is likely to have a higher profile than Hindi-medium schools as its alumni are more likely to get good jobs, as a result of that education.

Keep as (I know it would be really hard to prove it), but this school is one of the better known ones in the West Delhi area. Delhi has numerous schools (given its population of 22 million), but only a few schools are well known enough (or perceived by parents to provide a good standard of education). For the record, I knew the name of his school as far back in the 90s, much before Wikipedia. When I decide whether to vote keep or delete, I believe that it is important to also consider the age of the school, newspaper reports, as well as whether the school has any famous alumni. The school is close to 50 years old and it has 2 generations of alumni, which can be verified from this report in DailyMail. This is also the sister school of Don Bosco School (Alaknanda, New Delhi), another well known school (verified from [11]). I understand the lack of coverage, but back in the 90s or 2000s, I distinctly remember that the activities hosted by the school (inter-school sports events, extracurricular activities) would appear in the pages of Hindustan Times/Times of India. Unfortunately I don't have access to the archives anymore so I cannot find it. The vandalism incident as well as the Smriti Irani controversy both add to the fact that people could reasonably search Wikipedia for more information about this school, so I guess we can keep this article.--DreamLinker (talk) 03:22, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I have found and added some more references, and I think that the subject does meet
WP:GNG. The book Unveiling the Muse certainly does have significant coverage of this krewe, as does the New Orleans Advocate article, and other articles include relevant information. I think that the article could use some editing - it doesn't really have a lede paragraph, and I'm not sure that so much background info is necessary when there is a WP article about krewes
(but I have more experience with biographies than other kinds of article, so I may be wrong).

If the article is not kept, then it should not be deleted - even if this krewe is not considered notable on its own, the gay krewes in New Orleans certainly are, so a combined article on all of them would be preferable to deletion - but I believe that they are notable, this one certainly, so it should be kept.

The second said "At Dentech, the first priority is to build a world-class company that is dedicated to customer satisfaction, produces a fair profit and cares about its employees." ...and so it went on. There is a wiki, a YouTube video, advertising sites, and so on. I also searched for sources, including trying the search terms that Spearmint210 (the creator of the article) suggested above, but for some reason didn't do himself/herself. I found the company's own web site, LinkedIn, this Wikipedia article, advertising sites, and similar, but nothing of any value. (Typical of most of the pages I found were one on a site which says "We stay in business because software vendors pay us when they receive web traffic directly from our site" and one which says "Get your products listed on Dentalcompare today!") This article is an attempt to use Wikipedia to promote a business which does not come anywhere near to satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

@Geschichte: If the main issue with this source is the lack of secondary sources, then I can try and fix this. Would you be willing to give me a few days to rewrite the article to include information from secondary sources that improve notability? After that, you could reassess for notability - if it is still not notable, then I would understand the article's deletion.
The main reason that the article is largely dependent on primary sources is due to it being largely a translation of the Norwegian article, which uses roughly the same sources.

Pinging OliverEastwood, who is newish and may not realize his attention is still needed here. Oliver, Jo-Jo Eumerus is asking for a discussion of the sources you've added. You also should formally !vote, which involves posting a comment that starts with '''Keep''' (three apostrophes, Keep, three apostrophes will produce a bolded !vote of Keep), as those are the opinions the person closing the discussion will be most closely assessing. --valereee (talk) 10:32, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Skjoldvær has had a leadership role in several prominent Norwegian environmentalist organisations, one of which (Folkeaksjonen) has taken notable action, including a lawsuit against the Norwegian government, as well as its actions leading to the creating of an area which is permanently protected against oil drilling. References have also been updated to reflect this notability - several reputable news sources have been added. In light of this, I believe that the lack of notability (which this AfD was created to address) has been sorted, and the article is of a high enough quality to keep. - OliverEastwood talk 10:55, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Miss Great Britain at a time when it received plenty of attention and a well known television presenter in the mid-80s. Clearly notable, although most of the coverage may be in the black hole years that were pre-WWW, but later than is covered by some news archives. There's quite a lot in the British Newspaper Archive, which shows that she also presented a regular show on BBC Radio 2 into the 1990s and TV programmes such as the Saturday teatime quiz First Class on BBC1. --Michig (talk) 09:12, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NFO citeria 2, point 1 due to non-trivial (I'd say significant) treatment in two articles published more than 5 years after the film's release: Hip Hop on Film: Performance Culture, Urban Space, and Genre Transformation in the 1980s by Kimberly Monteyne (pub 2013) and Hip Hop in American Cinema by Melvin Donalson (pub 2007) as can be found in Google Books (the mention in the latter book is not part of the Google books preview, but the surrounding text from the search hit shows it's similar to the treatment in the first book I mentioned). - GretLomborg (talk) 17:13, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

Additional source: The film was also reviewed in the major publication Variety (as shown by its review being reprinted in Variety Film Reviews Volume 19: [12]), and likely other pre-digital publications. - GretLomborg (talk) 18:26, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
What exactly do those sources say about this film? Praxidicae (talk) 17:16, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The first [13] describes the movie as "perhaps the most unique hip hop musical reviewed in this book," includes a photo of the poster, four paragraphs of plot summary and discussion, and refers to the movie in about a half dozen other places throughout the book. The second [14] appears to discuss it on page 20, which is not part of the Google books preview. I also found a newspaper cite for the weird anecdote about the mayoral candidate. Given that all of these are from decades after the movie was released, it's highly likely that there is more non-digitized press coverage contemporaneous with its release.
WP:NEXIST applies here. - GretLomborg (talk) 17:55, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply

However, there's stuff in Google Books. Do you have access to anything more thorough, like ProQuest or LexisNexis?

The result was Keep but consider repurposing. But consider repurposing the article to be about the death(s).
