I think this article should remain as it is but with a few added corroborated links and citations as it is all factually correct and can be verified. You didn't do your research, and yes these links may not be in the article already, however, they verify information in the article marked as "citation needed." It is a blind, bold statement to claim that The Swingtips weren't part of the swing revival, as there are many sources here (some biased) as well as music compilations that show the importance of The Swingtips. Can we please keep this civil and not jump to conclusions? This has already jumped to a bad start and I thank you for bringing up the uttermost importance of more citations so that interested individuals may find more information if they feel it necessary. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simitar_Entertainment

Despite the refbombing, it doesn't appear to meet GNG - the vast majority of the sources aren't reliable sources (largely blogs, with the occasional press release), and several don't even mention Paybis (they're more justifying things like "are people buying Bitcoin," which isn't relevant to the article) or are entirely unrelated to the article. I don't see any sources which look reliable. The claim to notability ("considered to be one of the most notable cryptocurrency exchanges in the Baltics") is entirely unsupported by the references. Article looks to me like undisclosed promotion/COI.

- List of LGBT-related films (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)
List that has outlived its usefulness and been supplanted by other, more specific lists, for a subject that has become far too large to be maintainable in this one-stop format anymore. Just to be clear in case anybody misunderstands, I am not proposing that we do away with all lists of LGBT-related films; we already have many other more specific lists by year which should absolutely be kept, and I just don't think we need to keep a massive A-Z master list alongside them anymore.
When this was first created in 2003, there were a lot fewer LGBT-related films to list at all -- the original version literally had only around 100 films in it total. But with the sheer explosion in the visibility and sourceability and mainstreaming of LGBT-themed films in the intervening 16 years, we now have over 3,000 articles about LGBT-related films before you even take into account the considerable number of LGBT-themed films that are currently still redlinks, and the literally unfathomable number of LGBT-themed films still to come in the future. So in 2012, we started a comprehensive set of LGBT-related films subgrouped by year of release, which is highly developed and very well-maintained -- and with those lists in place, the value in trying to maintain a comprehensive A-Z master list alongside them is significantly reduced.
The sheer number of LGBT-related films that need to be listed now also poses a serious maintainability problem -- films frequently get added to the by-year lists without being added here, and the sheer number of films involved makes it virtually impossible to actually undertake any serious effort to get all the missing films added here anymore. And, by comparison, if a country has "List of [Country] films of [Year]" lists in place, then we just use "List of [Country] films" as an index of links to the year lists and not as a redundant master list of all the films that are already in the sublists -- and the sheer scope of this topic means we should treat it like a "country" in that sense.
TLDR, I believe this "comprehensive" master list has outlived its usefulness. We should just delete it, move List of LGBT-related films by year overtop the redlink, and let the by-year lists stand on their own from now on instead of trying to compile a reduplicated master list alongside them.

- Keep Frankly I fail to see how deleting this is helpful. You can make this a list of lists as mentioned by Erik, same as what you see in Lists of films, subdividing it into different categories as mentioned, List of LGBT-related films by year, List of LGBT-related films by storyline and List of LGBT-related films directed by women, etc. Seems like it should simply be a move proposal instead of a AfD. Hzh (talk) 10:45, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
- Repurposing this title as the move destination of one of the other lists is exactly what I proposed. The discussion is fundamentally about whether there's any value in maintaining a massive A-Z master list alongside the other lists anymore, so AFD is the appropriate venue for that discussion — but deletion of this list would not preclude reusing the title for a different purpose, because deletion never precludes redirection or repurposing of its title to cover something else. So the ability to repurpose the title into something else is not a reason why we would need to retain the content of this list in its existing form, which is what a keep result would mandate. Bearcat (talk) 16:03, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
- Your proposal is to move List of LGBT-related films by year to this space, however, List of LGBT-related films by year (which has multiple lists) is not the same as List of LGBT-related films (single list), it is in fact more Lists of LGBT-related films. This is something that should simply be a move that can be proposed in its talk page, discuss, move then adjust the content. Much simpler and less likely to result in unnecessary mistakes. Hzh (talk) 19:34, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
- Bearcat, the goal is to preserve the attribution history. I agree that we don't need a list, but I do not agree that we need to explicitly delete the list as it never existed. The history of this goes back to 2003. The list now persists in more specific forms, and it has not been proven that these forms have never relied on the original list. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:42, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
- The matter of whether the by-year lists ever relied on this list or not is completely impossible to prove or disprove in either direction — how, exactly, is anybody supposed to prove anything either way about whether the year lists were compiled by pulling films directly from this list, or from the same outside sources that were used to build this list? And secondly, as of the time that the year lists started getting spun out, the list was half as long or less as it is now — so by far the largest group of involved films were (a) added to both the year set and this list concurrently, (b) added to the year set first and then added here later, or (c) added to the year lists and never actually added here at all, and thus never relied on the existence of this list as their source. And even for the far smaller number of films that were already in this list before the by-year lists got spun out, the question of whether the by-year lists relied on external sources, or on this master list per se, is not my responsibility to prove. And precisely because external sources do exist for the classification, and we're supposed to be relying on those outside sources rather than self-citing ourselves in violation of WP:CIRCULAR, the question of whether the by-year lists relied on this list or on the external sources isn't even an important consideration at all. Bearcat (talk) 14:55, 30 September 2019 (UTC)]
- Like I said, I agree with converting this into a "lists" article. I don't understand why you want to delete the entire page history. Look at list of science fiction films. It redirects to lists of science fiction films, and we can see the oldest edits going back to 2001. That's what I favor. Not the outright deletion of the original topic editing, which was completely valid and likely spun off into the specific lists. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 15:42, 30 September 2019 (UTC)]
- Here is an example of the need to preserve copyright. Editor Dev920 began "splitting list" on July 31, 2007 with List of LGBT-related films and List of LGBT-related films by year.

- The matter of whether the by-year lists ever relied on this list or not is completely impossible to prove or disprove in either direction — how, exactly, is anybody supposed to prove anything either way about whether the year lists were compiled by pulling films directly from this list, or from the same outside sources that were used to build this list? And secondly, as of the time that the year lists started getting spun out, the list was half as long or less as it is now — so by far the largest group of involved films were (a) added to both the year set and this list concurrently, (b) added to the year set first and then added here later, or (c) added to the year lists and never actually added here at all, and thus never relied on the existence of this list as their source. And even for the far smaller number of films that were already in this list before the by-year lists got spun out, the question of whether the by-year lists relied on external sources, or on this master list per se, is not my responsibility to prove. And precisely because external sources do exist for the classification, and we're supposed to be relying on those outside sources rather than self-citing ourselves in violation of
- Repurposing this title as the move destination of one of the other lists is exactly what I proposed. The discussion is fundamentally about whether there's any value in maintaining a massive A-Z master list alongside the other lists anymore, so AFD is the appropriate venue for that discussion — but deletion of this list would not preclude reusing the title for a different purpose, because deletion never precludes redirection or repurposing of its title to cover something else. So the ability to repurpose the title into something else is not a reason why we would need to retain the content of this list in its existing form, which is what a keep result would mandate.

The topic of this article is incoherent: by whom is the mistake supposed to be made? It is almost completely unreferenced; fails notability, because there is no evidence of a literature on the topic of this ragbag of mistakes. Imaginatorium (talk) 17:51, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

Followup by proposer: This article is >10 years old, and has collected seven entries in the list:
- arigatou: This in itself is perhaps notable, because yes, it is a famous bogus etymology. I can't believe that any native Japanese speaker would imagine this to be a loan word -- it is not written in katakana.
- baba: This is probably a general phenomenon that there are very similar words across almost all languages.
- chakku: This might indeed be thought by native speakers to be a loan word, but isn't.
- chari: Nobody seems to know where this came from.
- emoji: This is a recent import into English. No native speaker would imagine it was a loan into Japanese (of course moji came from Chinese originally).
- garou: A very strained story... unreferenced.
- neta: Yes, many Japanese speakers might not know its origin; it's written in katakana.
@T.c.w7468: The latest entry (emoji) is obviously good faith. But it really has no coherent connection to the other entries. I contemplated deleting it, but it is so unclear what the topic is supposed to be that it seems unfair to privilege the other entries above it. I can't see quite what the reference says, but it appears just to mention that this is unrelated to "emoticon". True, but not notable.
I would guess that anything up to 10% of the entire vocabulary of Japanese (or any other language!) would have faintly plausible mistaken guesses as to its meaning. I suggest that trying to collect a comprehensive list is therefore not encyclopedic. Imaginatorium (talk) 18:21, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: (I hope I'm formatting this correctly) I suppose what you are saying makes sense. I added the entry for emoji because I thought that the article was for a list for words mistaken for gairaigo in general, as opposed to ones being commonly mistaken specifically by Japanese people. The reference was taken from other Wikipedia articles referencing the fact that the two aren't related, and was meant to demonstrate that the statement was true, which at the time of editing I thought was sufficient for this article. Perhaps it was bad practice on my part. I do not feel confident enough in my understanding of Wikipedia's policy to form an opinion on whether or not this article should be deleted, though I think you do have a good case. I'm just writing this in case my (flawed) thought process behind the edit becomes useful for further discussion. T.c.w7468 (talk) 19:07, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

- Comment. There is a David L. Richards whose book Poland Spring: A Tale of the Gilded Age, 1860-1900 has multiple reviews on JSTOR, but I strongly suspect he is a different person than the one described here. For instance this site describes the Poland Spring author as a 1997 graduate alum of the University of New Hampshire, at a time overlapping the subject's time as a doctoral student at Binghampton.

- Keep, If you consider him as a musician, the article should be kept. According to second criteria a musician should have a single/album on country's music chart. His song "Oporadhi" is the only and first Bangladeshi song to feature on Global Chart of YouTube. If you consider him in the criteria of any biography, he is notable. His song "Oporadhi" is the only and first Bangladeshi song to feature on YouTube Global Chart. And the news was published by international (Deustche Welle), Indian (Ei Samay, News18) and Bangladeshi (Dhaka Tribune, Prothom Alo, Kaler Kantho) media. The song was so popular that it was covered by crickerers. This song was before Adele and Taylor Swift's song on YouTube Global Chart ([see this link in English]). A people can get much coverage for single event. If his/her article fulfils notability criteria, he/she will be notable.

If you see Alexa Ranking of BangladeshYouTube is in the second position and Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Amazon, Yahoo are behind YouTube. Adele and Taylor Swift's song were behind a Bangladeshi song on YouTube Global Chart and the Bangladeshi song isn't the most popular song at that time, I won't believe it (I think anybody won't believe it).

I am on a borderline with regards to the notability of this politician to warranty a wikipedia page. The first source is primary and much of a blog, the second is a government parlimentary site which does'nt mention him. The third is but only a searching link. The last source is more or less similar to the first. There is not much significant coverage of the individual in reliable independent sources that would signify his notability as a politician or real estate mogul 10MB (talk) 11:45, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

While English is the official language, there are many other languages and I would reasonable expect for a member of the national legislature that there is notability proving sourcing somewhere.

But hard to find anything in-depth ... normally books would be the prime source for that era. I did add one 1922 source for the FAI goal. It's not an easy search term, that's for sure.

Jack Kelly was my grandfather. There are not many sources, especially online ones of soccer in the early days in Ireland. I have read match reports on microfilm in a Dublin library but not online. Match reports tend to be sparse and lacking description. The Thomas Walsh book is out of print but is available in the national library of Ireland. The Joe Dodds book is also out of print but I have a copy, provided by Joe himself. I have researched my grandfather extensively and for now there aren't any other sources that I can find. Eoghan Rice who has contributed to this is a respected soccer historian in Ireland. As more and more materials become available online it may be possible to add to this article in the future. I have just added further references to this and will do my best to find more. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shoe shine boy mo (talk • contribs) 09:04, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

- Comment from the nominator - It is essentially a local or regional topic of concern in Scotland which has garnered no widespread coverage. It is probably a sub-topic of the Social Security Program of Scotland. I don't see anything remarkable or notable about this topic. This page seems to serve as notification more than an article. Hence, the following applies: WP:indiscriminate---Steve Quinn (talk) 02:27, 24 September 2019 (UTC)]

- Keep per WP:NMUSIC. It's a professional chorus with years of history in Saint Louis (founded 1954). A history of the chorus is given in pages 49-54 of The Pullitzer Prize Archive -Cultural Criticism 1969-1990: From Architectural Damages to Press Imperfections, Heinz-Dietrich Fischer, Erika J. Fischer, Walter de Gruyter, K. G. Saur Verlag, 1992 (see here) Their concerts have been regularly critically reviewed in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. This review, for example, described the ensemble as "the region’s finest a cappella choir". Here are other reviews: [33], [34], [35], [36], [37], [38], [39], [40], [41], [42], etc. There's over one hundred concerts reviewed in that newspaper alone. Professional regional ensembles for classical music are typically verified on wikipedia through critical reviews in their city's paper. Additionally, the ensemble's work at performing and recording unusual repertoire has led to it's appearance in a number of academic publications; including [43], and [44]. Here is a snippet view of a Gramaphone review of one of their recordings. The chorus was also the main subject of an article in The Classical Outlook, Volume 77, Page 29.4meter4 (talk) 01:46, 24 September 2019 (UTC)]

- Keep but expand and reference, per 4meter4. I am convinced they are notable but that should show in the article, not only in this discussion. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:24, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

- Keep per 4meter4; clearly meets WP:NBAND. However, the article badly needs to be expanded with the references 4meter4 found. Zingarese talk · contribs 21:50, 24 September 2019 (UTC)]
