BLP without much sourcing. After some search on Google and Wikipedia Library, I found only a couple mentions of the person, all passing. Most other results are about some of her older books, with the newer ones being self-published. Doesn't seem to satisfy the notability criteria. Isabelle 🔔 23:21, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I've been finding things written about her work, but I'm running into a barrier when it comes to paywalls for older stuff. However what I've found so far suggests that there is more coverage out there and that she's one of the "go to" people for her topic area, particularly when they want to discuss white authors covering Zimbabwe and the issues concerning its people.

  • Keep. There are substantial sources out there. For one that is publicly available, here is a detailed academic analysis: [1] Also interesting that African Tears was reviewed by The Times Literary Supplement, though I unfortunately don't have access to the text. There's also quite a bit of newspaper coverage of Buckle. Overall, I think there is a strong case for notability. Haukur (talk) 09:39, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This is a racist nomination. The nominator clearly has some vendetta against Africans. She expects all the references to be on the internet and because she can't find enough in her Google search she wants to delete this page. Does she not take into account any reporting that takes place here in Zimbabwe? Has the nominator read our newspapers here in Zimbabwe? I bet she has not. Do not judge us by Western imperialist standards. She could offer to improve the article if she does not like it - but she does not. She just wants to destroy and delete like all Western imperialists before her. Why does this racist so-called Isabella think Ms Buckle has to publish her own books? Does she know of the censorship and oppression in Zimbabwe? What Zimbabwean publisher would be allowed to print these books? This person must go and hang her head in shame and reflect on why she hates Africans so much. Mangwanani (talk) 17:53, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTNEWS. I'm not seeing anything in this article that would indicate the COVID-19 outbreak in this one county of one U.S. state is standing out from all the rest. I would assume the article's notability is based on certain geographic factors, e.g. places of interest, locations of hospitals, distance from certain areas, etc., but none of that is being illustrated here. And judging by the table of case statistics by county in the COVID-19 pandemic in Wisconsin article, Door County is in the lower-middle tier of affected counties, so I'm not seeing what exactly is so special about the number of confirmed cases and deaths it has.

  • Keep -- article meets GNG due to substantial coverage in non-local media sources: Chicago Tribune, Milwaukee Journal-sentinel, Wisconsin Public Radio, The New York Times, WBEZ: Chicago's NPR News Source, and Iron Mountain Daily News in the UP, a 140 mile drive to the county seat in Door County. These stories, which are linked to in the external links section, were driven by concerns about property rights when non-permanent residents were asked to stay away from their seasonal residences. (In the northern part of the peninsula, most property is owned by people from out-of-state.) As for Door County being in the lower-middle tier of affected counties, the reason for this has been speculated about in several media sources. It is thought that the relatively high rate of masking has helped. Compared to COVID-19 pandemic in Columbus, Ohio, this article has more non-local coverage and compared to COVID-19 pandemic in the San Francisco Bay Area, this article has a smaller volume of non-local coverage.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 04:40, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Then the property rights story should be merged to the broader COVID-19 pandemic in Wisconsin article. If not, this article should be renamed at the very least. The content as it is now is aimed exclusively at this angle and not any broader concern about COVID-19 spreading throughout the county. Love of Corey (talk) 04:54, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The geographical distribution of cases was scattered to begin with, and remained that way to the present. There is no story about cases "spreading" they way you might think of it. Each tourist or out-of-county commuter ads to the risk. People live, drive, and get infected all over or nearly so.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 19:26, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Then where's the COVID-19 story for this article if geographical distribution of cases is scattered? I would expect the COVID-19 problem to be absolutely crippling if an article on this small county would deserve the benefit of notability. The way you describe it makes this event sound
WP:ROUTINE, and therefore, not notable. That leaves the property rights story, but it seems more worthy of being merged to COVID-19 pandemic in Wisconsin, unless you can expand the content with a trove of more recent coverage of that angle. Love of Corey (talk) 01:27, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply

"more recent coverage of that angle"---please elaborate on the angle you are referring to.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 19:13, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I'm not seeing a reason to delete here. There are naturally lots of articles about the pandemic in particular geographies such as NYC. This is just another one and doesn't need some special justification. Andrew🐉(talk) 14:07, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The difference between this article and articles like the one you just cited as an example is that these kinds of articles are talking about major cities/metropolitan areas.
And those are just the articles focusing on U.S. cities.
Here, Door County is only moderately populated compared to other counties in Wisconsin. Its largest (and only) city is home to less than 10,000 people. According to the article itself, it was the 45th county to report its first case in the state. Wisconsin has 72 counties, so by that point, more than half of the state's counties had reported at least one case each. Not exactly notable compared to being in the first five or first ten counties to report a first case.
The only thing worth noting about this article, as noted by
WP:UNDUE concerns. Love of Corey (talk) 01:49, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply
]
As this is a pandemic, it's everywhere, not just major cities. Other distinctive regions merit articles too – see COVID-19 pandemic in the Isle of Man; COVID-19 pandemic in the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base; COVID-19 pandemic in the Navajo Nation; &c. Myself, I am on the other side of the Atlantic, in London, but am quite familiar with Door County and interested in how things have been going there. The OP has no business trying to censor this notable aspect. My !vote stands. Andrew🐉(talk) 11:07, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Of course COVID-19 is everywhere, but we're not going to try and break it down by every region and subdivision known to man. We primarily break it down by the notability of the region affected. Isle of Man is a crown dependency (the UK equivalent of a U.S. territory like Puerto Rico (which also has its own article, as do all the other territories, BTW)), Guantanamo is a military base with extremely special significance in U.S. history, and the Navajo Nation is a Native American territory, essentially its own country. Door County is none of those things.
If there was something special about the spread of COVID-19 in the county, then yes, this could merit an article of its own, but I don't see extensive coverage of that angle here. The article is more focused on the property rights of non-permanent, out-of-state residents. Perhaps if the content was expanded and the article was renamed to properly reflect the topic, then it could be kept. But if an expansion cannot happen, it should be merged to the main Wisconsin article, because the amount of sourcing right now doesn't look substantial enough to support an individual article spun off from the broader pandemic, and the main Wisconsin article could cover it better as a subsection relating to responses. Love of Corey (talk) 18:33, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If I added referenced material concerning the high rate of masking and a physician's analysis of the possible effect of this would that meet your standard for "something special about the spread"?--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 01:19, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Unless the material in question comprises multiple paragraphs of content with multiple sources, and not just a single paragraph documenting anecdotal stories and a statement by a physician, that kind of information would be better suited for Face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Love of Corey (talk) 03:29, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to the article on Wisconsin. Other stuff exists is not a valid reason to keep, Door County is not a major metropolitican center. Wikipedia is not news, and breaking down the pandemic by county level will lead to lots of unneeded news level coverage.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:13, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Door county (prior to the pandemic) received 2.2 million visitors every year. How many counties with Door County's population receive that many visitors? During the pandemic the figures are maybe half, but still that makes it different than most counties.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 01:19, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to the article on COVID-19 in Wisconsin. Literally every county in America is getting local coverage for COVID-19. There's nothing unique about it and there is zero good reason to have separate county articles about COVID-19. Unless there is something particularly unique about COVID-19 in said county.

  • The difference is that Door County has received non-local coverage including from New York and Chicago.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 01:19, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Not that I think they should make a difference, but for whatever reason the non-local sources are in External Links section. So, technically they don't count. Since they aren't being used as references. At least, I think. Although, they do exist. So, likely I'm wrong and they just don't work anyway. Personally, they don't work for me because pretty much everywhere is getting coverage of COVID-19 from everywhere. At this point you could probably pic any random county in America and it would have non-local coverage about it. Hell, I live an extremely in-significant county in the grand scheme of things and a few weeks ago there was an article in Bloomberg about a couple of religious fanatics here not wanting to wear masks, because supposedly they infringe their religious rights or some crap. I don't think my county should have an article about COVID-19 here though. Even with Bloomberg deciding to do a story about it. --Adamant1 (talk) 23:37, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I noticed one of them (the NYT article) is also being used as a reference, so I don't know why the others wouldn't be used as references too. From my experience, external links are mainly supposed to be used to redirect any interested readers to additional information that otherwise cannot be used as actual references in the article. Love of Corey (talk) 00:45, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, meets GNG, has non-local sources. The only thing I see needing improvement is properly citing the non-local sources in the article, but thats easy copyediting for a bored wikipedian to do. Deleting wouldn't fix the issue, just remove it.
    talk) 00:47, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply
    ]
What could we do to properly integrate them, though? It doesn't look like any of the "External links" sources have anything new to offer for the article. If anything, that section should be purged entirely if the article is somehow kept. Love of Corey (talk) 00:03, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - The comments about the article being supported by non-local sources have prompted me to look at the list of references. Out of the 28 references provided, as of this writing, there are only a grand total of three sources (or an estimated 10 percent) that are national and/or from out-of-state (The New York Times, Petoskey News-Review, and Marine News). If you count the external links section as references, that makes six out of 34 references (or an estimated 17 percent) that are national and/or from out-of-state, the additional three being Iron Mountain Daily News, Chicago Tribune, and WBEZ.
So, while non-local sources are indeed being used, there's not a lot of them, and they're not being used extensively. For example, an article I've been working on since its creation, Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot, features 101 references as of this writing, of which there are at least 45 (or an estimated 44 percent) that come from non-local, out-of-state, national publications. I'd expect around that number of sources to be used in this article if I believe this is a notable topic. And moreover, the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot article is still being updated by the day with recent sources. I noticed that, at least as far as I can see, this article's sources have all been published from March to May, with only one outlier source coming from yesterday. For a sub-article about a massive, ongoing pandemic that is close to affecting every corner of the Earth, there's not a lot of substantial coverage that indicates there's an ongoing problem of particular importance, COVID-19 or otherwise.
Note that I've excluded some Wisconsin-based sources; while some of them are certainly non-local, as Wisconsin-based publications, I believe they're more likely to cover a matter located elsewhere in Wisconsin than a source that's from out of state would. In particular, Green Bay, the headquarters of recurring source The Green Bay Press-Gazette, is located in Brown County, which neighbors Door County to the southwest. It's no surprise to me that there's an abundance of coverage coming from that publication. Love of Corey (talk) 01:34, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Most sources in the San Francisco coronavirus article are local, with Los Angeles significantly accounting for the non-local ones
There are two articles from Chicago and one from New York for this article's topic. You only need three to get past AfC. Looking just now I found a coronavirus-topic interview with a Sturgeon Bay area farm family from a Milwaukee based publication that is not in the external links.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 19:16, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Once again, the San Francisco article is acceptable because San Francisco is a major city in the U.S. and a symbol of the country to a good part of the rest of the world. Door County doesn't have any significance in broader U.S. history, nor does it have any of that symbolism that would make a majority of the world recognize it as an American hallmark whenever they hear of it. Therefore, there wouldn't be any worldwide investment in knowing what happens over there, regardless of whether it is a hard-hit part of the country or not.
Also, please note that
WP:EVENTCRITERIA says this, "Editors should bear in mind recentism, the tendency for new and current matters to seem more important than they might seem in a few years time. Many events receive coverage in the news and yet are not of historic or lasting importance. News organizations have criteria for content, i.e. news values, that differ from the criteria used by Wikipedia and encyclopedias generally. A violent crime, accidental death, or other media events
may be interesting enough to reporters and news editors to justify coverage, but this will not always translate into sufficient notability for a Wikipedia article."
So, what does Door County have that would cause many publications like The New York Times to revisit its situation days, weeks, months, and years down the line? People are always going to revisit San Francisco's situation because it's San Francisco. What does Door County have that would make me care if and when it keeps showing up in the news feeds? Love of Corey (talk) 01:27, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"what does Door County have...many publications"--a large number of out-of-state property owners from large metro areas.
"nor does it have any of that symbolism"--then what brings Japanese tourists to the county each year, and not just for cherry blooms? One of the wrote ja:ドア郡_(ウィスコンシン州). Or if it is not symbolic, then why were two farms in the county featured on postage stamps?
"majority of the world"--which hasn't heard of Columbus, Ohio either. A decent chunk of Eastern Europe (a generation ago, Western Europe) has an association with Door County due to the J-1 visa program, for example:[23]. A ship manufactured in Door County currently serves in the Mexican navy, and there is (or is planned), a public art display in a large Chinese city depicting Door County. Also, the southeastern part of the county part of an area that is is well known to Walloons in Belgium as the #2 largest Walloon speaking area in the US.[24] The inhabited island at the north of Door County is known to Icelanders as an Icelandic ethnic area.[25]
"any significance in broader U.S. history" The Cardy Site forced historians to re-write the pre-history of the central US. The Rock Island II Site is considered (by some relevant state employee quoted somewhere) as the most important archaeological site in the state. It was closed to visitors during the pandemic. Also, the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal helped Green Bay grow into a major city. Also consider the wartime impact of the ship manufacturing industry and the county's association with a Wisconsin state political dynasty.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 19:58, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
While I'm still on the merge side, I do find it rather carious that this seems to have gotten a lot of out of state coverage for whatever reason. I still stick by the example of my county not deserving an article due to being in Bloomberg, but the coverage this has gotten seems to go beyond that. Although, I don't want to make of it. Nor for the life of me I can't figure out why. Even reading the articles it doesn't seem like there's anything particularly unique about COVID-19 in Door County and it is a rather insignificant place in grand scheme of things. Other places must be covering it for a reason though. --Adamant1 (talk) 22:44, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It's the COVID-19 pandemic. Of course out-of-state publications are going to visit other areas every now and then. It's just like you said. I'm pretty sure the Bloomberg article is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to outside coverage of your home county. Given the scope of this pandemic and Wikipedia's extensive, ongoing coverage, however, I would expect more than a dozen or two dozen national and/or out-of-state publications to have an interest in a certain populated area before said area could even be considered for its own COVID-19 article. Love of Corey (talk) 23:07, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"a large number of out-of-state property owners from large metro areas." Yes, but that would be for the property rights story. Is there anything special about the COVID-19 outbreak that could be covered at extensive length in this article, so extensively that it cannot be fit into the Wisconsin article?
"then what brings Japanese tourists to the county each year, and not just for cherry blooms? One of the wrote ja:ドア郡_(ウィスコンシン州). Or if it is not symbolic, then why were two farms in the county featured on postage stamps?" Sources on this information?
"'majority of the world'--which hasn't heard of Columbus, Ohio either." The most populous city of Ohio, and the 14th-largest city of the U.S.? I doubt it.
"A decent chunk of Eastern Europe (a generation ago, Western Europe) has an association with Door County due to the J-1 visa program..." From what you're arguing in that entire paragraph, you're saying this topic's "notability" is also rooted in the county's history with certain populations from certain countries. So you'd argue there should be a COVID-19 article for Hamtramck, Michigan, for example, because of its high population of Yemeni and Bangladeshi immigrants? Even if it's dwarfed in size by its neighbor Detroit, which is more suited for an article of its own because of its high population, which guarantees widespread COVID-19 cases?
"The Cardy Site ... The Rock Island II Site ... Also, the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal..." Do you really expect every American across the country to know all of that? If they're not teaching it in history books, then all of the information you just shared about Door County's history is not something that would be of great interest to the masses, only something a specialized historian or a private individual with a particular interest in Wisconsin history would know. In comparison to Door County, lots and lots of historic events have occurred in San Francisco, Boston, New York City, Columbus, Portland, and Philadelphia. There are simply too many count that these cities have their own articles on their histories (History of San Francisco, History of Boston, History of New York City, History of Columbus, History of Portland, History of Philadelphia). Door County doesn't have that kind of article.
Just because Door County is a resort area and a travel destination doesn't mean it deserves its own article. Other, more well-known resort areas and travel destinations in the U.S. don't have their own COVID-19 articles too, e.g. Las Vegas, Miami, Atlantic City, etc., etc., and I suspect it's for good reason. Love of Corey (talk) 23:07, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know. It seems like your making a lot of hypothetical and what-aboutism type arguments. While not saying much about the guidelines. Which really doesn't bode well for your position. Not that Epiphyllumlover's argument is completely solid either, but it's at least less obtuse (angle wise, not meaning "insensitive or slow to understand." Like, people would have go around a sharp corner to get what your saying and agree with it). --Adamant1 (talk) 23:17, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, okay. Love of Corey (talk) 09:15, 30 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Las Vegas, Miami, and Atlantic City aren't as dependent on J-1 workers--which dropped to zero nationwide this year. The publicity staff in Door County has prided itself on getting media coverage for everything for two generations now. Ever since they made it into the March 1969 National Geographic they have been trying to repeat it with similar accomplishments. Even when there was a 1971 scandal about faulty septic systems that was reprinted in papers across the Midwest--one way to spin it was that the publicity was good advertising. The DMO has ways to get coverage. Maybe it is connections, maybe they help fund the reporting. That might get explain the New York Times article, but it won't buy your way into Hoard's Dairyman. That coverage was genuine--and is national since Hoard's is a national magazine.
As for what happened at the Rock Island II Site, that is taught in history books across the US in a generalized sense--they mention Jean Nicolet and other French explorers which stopped there. Your typical national map of the US used in schools shows the Door peninsula, and maybe even Washington Island. What was found at the Cardy Site was first dismissed as not possible, but is now mainstream pre-history. Paleo-Indians hunting near the retreating ice sheets is commonly taught in a general sense. Sturgeon Bay hosted the 2015 Bassmaster's Angler of the Year Championship tournament--it is one of the top national sportfishing locales.
The majority of the world has heard of New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles. Majority is a very high bar and too high to be appropriate here. If Wayne County had a Covid article I would vote support for keeping it. Maybe it will someday. Covid could be around for a while. Statistics tend to be reported by counties.
"I would expect more than a dozen or two dozen national and/or out-of-state publications"--- The San Fran covid article does not even have that, much less the Columbus, Ohio covid article. Your bar is impractically high. Three national or out-of-state articles is enough to pass AfC, three should be enough here. Door County has five--Iron Mountain, New York Times, Chicago Tribute, WBEZ, and Hoard's Dairyman. Looking at the Columbus, Ohio article I see one reference to NBC news titled, "Unreleased White House report shows coronavirus rates spiking in heartland communities". Columbus is mentioned in a list in that reference. I did not find any other such articles, so by that standard it would not get out of AfC.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 04:15, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep - For "COVID-19 pandemic in [place]" articles, as long as there is indeed sufficient coverage to sustain an article, and that information would be too much to include in its entirety in a parent article, and as long as they're being updated frequently enough so as not to become harmful in their inadequacy, I find myself thinking that we should let them be for now and revisit how to combine/condense/whatever when it isn't such an important subject for so many people. Yeah, I know that "is someone updating them" isn't typically a reason to keep (or to delete), but it's a matter of pragmatism. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:24, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The only updates thus far for this article, at least ever since I nominated the article for deletion, are only about the case numbers, not for anything in the actual body. For an article about a COVID-19 outbreak in a certain area, there's a virtual absence of more recent information, not to mention an absence of documenting how exactly COVID-19 is spreading through the area, e.g. a "Timeline" section, like all the other COVID-19 outbreak articles. If this is supposed to be about COVID-19 spread, this article seems to have a lot of

Unlike the Mass shootings in the United States article, the topic of mass shootings in Israel is not a particularly well-studied and well-sourced phenomenon, and that much shows in the content of this article. While two mass shootings in a country's recorded modern history would be considered particularly unique, they are not part of some broader, long-lasting trend or pattern of concern like it is in the U.S. Therefore, an article cannot reasonably be dedicated to this kind of topic.

A news article discussing Leung Sheung is preserved in image format here: A Scandal of the Yung-Ch'un School I must admit, my own biases can't be removed from this discussion as a member of the Leung Sheung lineage, but the above article should meet the criteria for secondary verification of status. Additional sources include the Wing Chun Sifu Database and Leung Sheung: Too Important to Overlook in Wing Chun Illustrated. I also would like to submit that, while admitting my own bias, the recent rash of deletions and edits on Yip Man Wing Chun related pages may also be biased in nature, and would request this be further looked at before processing additional deletions.

I don't think a blog post by "Wooden Dummy" on the "My Way of Wing Chun" website will "meet the criteria for secondary verification of status". A brief bio page on another website that anyone can post to also does meet the standard of an independent and reliable source. I don't know about the reliability or independence of "Wing Chun Illustrated", but an article in it by someone in Leung Sheung's lineage is not sufficient to show that

I wouldn't expect a blog post to be a verifiable source, however the page does preserve images from a genuine article from 1977. "Secrets of Kung-Fu vol. 1 no. 10, pp. 24-27 (Oct 1977)" I also do realize my own implicit bias, as previously stated, and as such, do not expect my own claims to be taken as "proof" in any way.

Oh, I'm aware there's a lot of fakery in the Wing Chun world, sadly. However, Leung Sheung is well known to have been the first disciple of Yip Man, and was encouraged to teach by him. The big issue is that Leung Sheung never really sought publicity; he was an immensely humble and quiet man (and I believe he would even dispute being called a "Grandmaster", simply because that kind of talk didn't suit him, from the firsthand accounts I've heard). I'd also like to clarify that I am not accusing you personally of bias, but rather was noting quite a few edits by numerous people that seemed to lean towards personal bias rather than a genuine interest in improving Wikipedia. I myself do my best to refrain from editing when I could be considered to have a personal tie toward any of the subject matter, which is one reason I've refrained from cleaning up this article myself. 樂牧師 (talk) 06:19, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@彩虹牧師: Jim Fung is one of those fakes but since he has been published in national news sources in Australia his article stands. In order to establish notability which is another word for famous, the subject needs to have enough credible third party sources, national and international news coverage is the main way to verify notability. Martial arts magazines alone do not establish notability but they can serve to complete the content of an article. William Cheung is far less legitimate than Leung Sheung but he has attracted the most international media coverage than even Ip Chun himself, at one stage he was more famous than Ip Man because he claimed to have taught Bruce Lee to fight and the world's media believed him. The ones that are to blame for Leung Sheung not having enough news coverage are his students because it should not be up to the Grandmaster to seek out his own publicity. What you can do is on every birthday of Leung Sheung is to create a celebratory event in his name and invite national media outlets like China Morning Post, if you do that every year I guarantee in three years maybe even two there will be enough to establish notability for wikipedia. If you invite a celebrity or a well known state political figure this will surely attract free publicity. Good luck. Australianblackbelt (talk) 08:30, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's questionable that List of Brisbane Broncos players should even exist in the first place. Let alone be dumbing ground for every random athlete that has played for them no matter how minor.

The list of sources might seem impressive, except 3 of them are about the one match he played in September 2007, another is about a comeback that didn't quite happen, and the third is a "Where are they now?" article, where the subtext is that he's not really that well covered (people who receive consistent coverage generally don't get the "Where are they now?" treatment).

@Deus et lex: Not really. It's work/tedious to redirect an article to another one that is unreferenced/will likely just be deleted. Especially if the thing your redirected isn't discussed to any length or referenced in the redirect target. Also, "Redirects are used to help people arrive more quickly at the page they want to read" and I just don't think someone going to List of Brisbane Broncos players is going there for specific information on a player. That's not the point in lists anyway. The main point in them is as a broad over view and navigational aid. BTW, generally citing IDON'TLIKEIT is a pretty weak argument. It's also needlessly personalizing this when it shouldn't be a personal. Especially in this case. I'll use it when someone specifically says they want to the article to be kept because they like it or something along those lines, but that's about it and it's not how I approached it. --Adamant1 (talk) 12:07, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all the coverage in the sources seems to be name drops, brief mentions, or otherwise don't support notability. For example, the first source doesn't even discuss him. The second is a name drop and doesn't discuss him. The sixth doesn't discuss him either. The seventh just says he "helped He-Man in his battle against the evil forces of Skeletor." The 8th is another name drop. So is the 9th (in a picture caption none the less, not even the context of the article). The 10th source is a dead link. All those sources are a text book example of sources that fail
    WP:GNG. It's pretty clear whoever posted them didn't bother to actually check any of them. Likely they just posted links to whatever came up in a Google without putting anymore thought into it.

When you say "all the coverage", you didn't address the three sources that I added, which are #3, 4 and 5. I didn't take out any of the weak sources; I just added three stronger ones, which demonstrate notability. — Toughpigs (talk) 12:41, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Because I don't have access to them. Although, I doubt any of them have in-depth coverage of this character. Especially considering nowhere on the net seems to, or really any. Plus, from my experience your usually pretty lose about what you consider in-depth. If you have access to the books you could post the in-depth paragraphs though, or, I guess we are just suppose to take your word for it that they are adequate. It's fine if others want to, but I rather not. Especially considering your "good quality" comment about the sourcing in University of Boumerdès. --Adamant1 (talk) 12:50, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
The first source doesn't have anything about the character in it. Not even a name drop. I'd love to know how that's a "good source." I'm sure none of your other sources discuss Man-At-Arms either. The article isn't about He-Man Mastered the Universe. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:02, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The first source doesn't have anything about the character in it. Uh? A search for "arms" turns up several mentions in the first source, and the second occurrence is real world context about the character's design. Between this and my response to you directly above, you're incorrectly assuming a lot of bad faith here. Argento Surfer (talk) 12:18, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
My bad. I was reading an article with the same title that I thought was the source Right cite was talking about. So, it seems like your the one not assuming good faith. Anyway, I've been involved in a few AfDs with the user and it's just a fact that they aren't that concerned about notability guidelines or in-depth coverage. Right cite has said as much. I see nothing wrong with pointing it out when the person themselves doesn't deny it Etc. Etc. Personally, I'm pretty open about not being a big fan of the notability guidelines for athletes and I have zero problem with other people saying so, because it's just a fact that I'm into them. --Adamant1 (talk) 12:30, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It was mostly the whole "Uh?" thing. Which came off as needlessly sarcastic. I'm not sure what competence has to do with this. Everyone makes mistakes once in a while and my comment about Right cite had nothing to do with their competence level or lack there of. I assume it's a personal choice on Right cite's part to not care so much about the guidelines. People who think everything should be included in Wikipedia tend not to. Really, it's their prerogative. Your instigation of this discussion has made the whole way more of a thing then it is or that I care about. --Adamant1 (talk) 13:05, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Your instigation of this discussion I didn't instigate anything. This is not my nom, this is not my !vote, and I was not the first to respond to this !vote. I responded to your incorrect evaluation of the source (which is why I mentioned CIR, which was directed at you). That incorrect evaluation leads directly to your comment that I'm sure none of your other sources discuss Man-At-Arms either. Since your initial point was incorrect, perhaps you should reconsider the conclusions you drew from it. While you're at it, perhaps you should stop assuming sources you can't (or won't bother to) access are invalid. You've done that to two editors in this discussion. Argento Surfer (talk) 13:38, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Your the one that messaged me about my evaluation. I didn't message you. So, you instigated the current discussion we are having about things. The person who "instigates" things is the "instigator." That's just a fact and it's pointless to argue about it. Obviously I wasn't saying your the one that started the AfD. Anyway, I was inccorect about that source. I can't really say if I'm wrong about the other ones though. Since I don't have access to them. Plus, I based my opinion that they probably aren't in-depth on a large amount of personal experience dealing with both of them. If 99% of the time someone doesn't cite reliable in-depth sources, there's a good chance the sources they posted in this AfD aren't going to be either. Both of them are rank and file inclusionists and both are rather lose with the guidelines, because their main concern is keeping articles. Neither denies it either. I'm not attacking them or anything by saying so. The reality is it's much harder to keep articles if your a guideline hardliner. Again, that's just a fact. So, I'm not reconsidering anything. Last I checked, we can have opinions about things anyway. Plenty of people on here, including the two people your taking with issue with me commenting about, have way more bat crazy opinions then mine. --Adamant1 (talk) 13:56, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
we can have opinions about things anyway. Criticizing a source without knowledge of it isn't an opinion. It's a prejudice.

  • Delete per Piotrus. The sources don't satisfy the
    WP:GNG. A closer look shows that they barely mention the character and some coverage being touted doesn't mention the character at all.

Ping Shooterwalker. I think the problem is the depth of the coverage. The fact that he was designed as a 'father figure' is interesting and a good start, but if all we have are 2-3 sentences in sources, and the rest is plot summary, he fails the requirement for in-depth coverage. At best, I'd suggest merging the tiny reception-like paragraph (that you added to lead) into some other relevant article, maybe about the main franchise, or the list of characters that mentions him. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:32, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • The coverage here really is one or two sentences at a time, which is the definition of
    WP:GNG. It's close enough to the borderline that I think a merge is actually the better call, but this article is likely to never have the depth of coverage you'd need for a stand-alone article. My revised comment is driven by my distaste for no consensus discussions which allow disagreements to fester, and my preference to cover primary material as a brief section in uncontroversially notable articles with lots of quality sources. Deletion looks more likely than keep based on my read of the current discussion and the lack of sources, but merge really would be a good compromise if we could pull people together. I hope that explains my revised comment. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:04, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply

Insufficiently notable performer allegedly "best known for his recurring role as Scotty in the HBO Max series Search Party", a part so insignificant that it is not even mentioned in the Search Party (TV series) article. Also, IMDB does not list it as recurring so even this could be an exaggeration. He has won a high school theatre award, met some famous people and worked in some famous places. That's not enough.

    ]
As a direct response to the above comment:
A primary, very reasonable justification for this article stems in large part from the verified, credited, notable, and widely-viewed recurring role in Search Party (HBO Max). The suggestion that the actor only has several “uncredited” roles is incorrect, as the Search Party appearance is credited on IMDb.
The article in its current form contains several reliable sources, including the New York Daily News, MSN (aggregated), and others. Regarding the New York Daily News, I certainly wouldn’t call a renowned paper founded in 1919, and with a daily distribution of 200,000+ physical newspapers, "not reliable.” The actor also has 10+ Brazil-based publications because of the actor’s following in the country. However, these articles are all in Portuguese and are thus irrelevant for the purposes of this article.
To speak directly to WP:NACTOR, this article actually adheres perfectly to point number two in these guidelines, which reads, “Has a large fan base or a significant ‘cult’ following.” After the actor’s appearance in Search Party, which aired in June 2020, he has amassed 32,000+ Instagram followers, and has become verified on Facebook and TikTok. If these massive tech companies were able to identify this actor’s public figure status and subsequently verify the individual based on his large following — indicating on their platforms that they have deemed this individual to be noteworthy and deserving of verification — then surely Wikipedia can uphold this article. I do not see how this is a stretch in the slightest, and I am genuinely surprised by the opposition here. Regarding WP:NACTOR, this article passes with flying colors. --Derekbeagle (talk) 01:01, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: The role they have called into question is a two-episode recurring role in a major television series on HBO Max. The credited episode is the episode in which the character is most featured and spoken to by name, whereas there are no credits simply for other "appearances" elsewhere in the season. Moreover, the official series Instagram profile, which follows the cast and creative team, does, in fact, follow Harold Eric. Does this matter? No. But because the argument for deletion calls into question the validity of the role/involvement as being "so insignificant," this is nonetheless further evidence that the involvement was notable. Furthermore, the series features Harold Eric in its own advertisements, as well as on its Instagram page, which is yet another clear indication of the actor's notable involvement.
Regarding the "high school theatre award," this scrutinization is unwarranted, and the manner in which this argument is presented is dismissive. One need only Google "Jimmy Awards" to see the noteworthiness of this event beyond being just some "high school theatre award" in the United States theatre industry. In fact, PBS produced a television series titled Broadway or Bust specifically about this event. This nomination was no small feat. Furthermore, the New York Daily News published a full feature on Harold Eric in 2013 regarding this event, which should underscore the fact that this event is far from insignificant.
Regarding this being "promotional," the user calling for deletion marked the article for concerns about "tone," which were addressed in an earlier revision to avoid any concerns about this being promotional. However, this was apparently not enough for the user. Despite that, this is written in an objective and straightforward manner, regardless of what anyone could feel about noteworthiness.
Likewise, the claim that the subject "met some famous people and worked in some famous places" is an unfair and, frankly, dismissive characterization of the work. Wikipedia is intended to be straightforward with details and information, and the fact of the matter is the subject shared stages and studios with countless stars, specifically as a backup singer for live performances and albums. As indicated in the listing, the subject performed at Elton John 60, among other major concerts and events, which was a sold-out, record-breaking event at Madison Square Garden. However, highlighting every event and the work/process involved is not appropriate for an article, and in its current state, this information is presented in a direct manner.
As stated in a prior revision on the page, the credentials and noteworthiness of the subject in question were deemed sufficient by both Facebook and TikTok in recent weeks, such that both platforms – through their independent verification teams – verified Harold Eric based on his credibility as a public figure. The profiles have been hyperlinked in this paragraph as proof. If a blue check was warranted for this independently reviewed and validated public figure, who also boasts over 30,000 Instagram followers, I do not understand why this page would be considered unjustified. As mentioned in a reply to an earlier vote, this speaks directly to WP:NACTOR, and this article actually adheres perfectly to point number two in these guidelines, which reads, “Has a large fan base or a significant ‘cult’ following.” After the actor’s appearance in Search Party, which aired in June 2020, he has amassed 32,000+ Instagram followers, and has become verified on Facebook and TikTok. If these massive tech companies were able to identify this actor’s public figure status and subsequently verify the individual based on his large following — indicating on their platforms that they have deemed this individual to be noteworthy and deserving of verification — then surely Wikipedia can uphold this article. I do not see how this is a stretch in the slightest, and I am genuinely surprised by the opposition here. Regarding WP:NACTOR, this article passes with flying colors.
As if this deletion form was not enough of an inquiry into the matter, the user DanielRigal, who initiated this deletion form, just opened a Sockpuppet investigation into the profile that originally created this listing, CanadianBBQ, questioning a connection to my account. The SPI clerk will undoubtedly determine that there are no duplicate accounts or any wrongdoing whatsoever. I mention this because based on DanielRigal's incessant revision history on this listing (and determination to see this listing deleted), I am very concerned that there is more at play than just a concern about notability. I do not personally know the user "CanadianBBQ" (the originator of this listing). However, DanielRigal's history indicates a clear pattern of actively taking down any listing that the "CanadianBBQ" user posts, and I am concerned that DanialRigal is unjustly attempting to delete this page solely based on its origins from another user, as opposed to its merits and the information presented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Derekbeagle (talk • contribs) 18:22, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There is one accusation buried in all that verbiage that is slightly true. I did indeed discover this article because I had already noticed that its original creator had made some misguided, possibly promotional, articles and I was checking up on what else they had done to see if there was a general pattern there. So, now that I have answered it, let me turn that question around on you. How did you find this article approximately three hours after it was created and one hour after registering your account? I mean, it is an orphan article. You didn't follow a link to it. How did you even know it existed? --DanielRigal (talk) 18:43, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I was sent an unsolicited link to it, and in the interest of ensuring that all information was accurate, appropriate, and properly sourced for a Wikipedia article (long-time reader, first-time writer here), made adjustments thereafter. I have no connection to, nor any relationship with, the originator of the article, and based on the merits of this article, I do believe it should remain active. That being said, I do commend you for your commitment to upholding Wikipedia's integrity in articles. --Derekbeagle (talk) 19:05, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
So, to be clear per our policies on

disclosure you are declaring that you have no relationship whatsoever to Harold Eric Theurer. You do not know him in a personal or professional manner and have no external relationship with him whatsoever. In this case a professional relationship would also include doing any professional work alongside him, e.g. appearing alongside side him in a tv show or commercial, or performing alongside him in a music production.
You claim that you were sent an unsolicited link to the article, which sounds to me to be a lot like
WP:MEAT. At the point you started editing the article it had been in existence for only a couple of hours, had no incoming links and would not have even been indexed by search engines. Were you sent the link to the article by anyone who may have a conflict of interest with Harold Eric Theurer, e.g. Harold Eric Theurer himself, his friends or family or his agent?

From the inception of this article, user DanielRigal challenged it. Despite my attempts to alter text and improve citations, the user launched a Sockpuppet investigation, and no wrongdoing was found. Apparently, this result wasn't sufficient for either of you, because now, as legitimate discussion about the merits (or lack thereof) of this article takes place on this page, which is specifically what this page is for, you are now throwing other accusations into the mix. Quite frankly, I would like to direct you to Wikipedia's Harassment Policy, as DanielRigal admitted that he targeted the article originally based on a personal determination to investigate the originator, and based on the policy which refers to "intentionally target[ing] a specific person or persons," this activity is questionable. Moreover, these actions by DanielRigal and you are specifically "mak[ing] editing Wikipedia unpleasant for the target," and "undermine[ing], frighten[ing], [and] discourage[ing] them [me] from editing." This may not be your intention, but it is the effect.
Moreover, you have made an accusation about the subject of this article on DanielRigal's Talk Page, specifically making the accusation that the subject of the article is conducting shady Wikipedia practices. This is incorrect, targeted, and unjust harassment that has been ongoing since the inception of this article. All further discussions should be based on the merits (or lack thereof) of this article. Rather than continue this targeted harassment and accusations, I strongly recommend that you allow the rest of the Wikipedia community to weigh their unbiased and independent thoughts and opinions on this article, as opposed to conducting your current process of leveling incorrect accusations and making personal attacks. This page is specifically for discussion about the merits of the article, and if the community deems it unfit, then that will be the proper outcome. The wrongful accusation process and line of questioning that DanielRigal began, and which you seem determined to continue, is wholly unjust.
Likewise, in good faith, I will ask you to remove the incorrect accusation you have listed on the aforementioned talk page, as not only is it untrue, but it verges on slander against the subject of the article.
I will not be entertaining any further questions, nor will I offer any further replies. Instead, I leave the fate of this article up to the community. Please allow the Wikipedia editor community to do their work, and refrain from any further accusations. --Derekbeagle (talk) 04:57, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I make random articles of notable people and places and things that I find on the internet. I do not discriminate and I publish content based on the information that I am able to source from the internet. I've watched Harold Eric on television. Also, I would like to point this that I have no connection with user Derekbeagle. I appreciate the efforts put by everyone to build a platform like Wikipedia. I'm just another guy who like to read and write about random things.

Italian metal band, formed by the Theatres des Vampires guy. While that band is notable, I think this side project is not. The article is "sourced" solely to Myspace which is always a bad sign. The article used to contain some album reviews but those has been removed from the article (those sites did not look too reliable either). I did a Google search and I found nothing of substance, just the standard worthless sites like youtube, metal archives, etc. While I have found several album reviews / news about the band, they are all featured on blogs / sites of dubious reliability. I think this band is not notable. A redirect to Theatres des Vampires is all this title is worth imo. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:43, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To quote the actual policy: All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be supported by an inline citation to a reliable, published source. Contentious material about living persons (or, in some cases, recently deceased) that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion. I trust you think I've now cited the actual policy correctly? The list has been challenged and whether living people are eligible for inclusion is up for debate. There is no question that the material is unsupported by citation. Please tell me how that "misinterprets" policy? If you really cared about this list you would stop bludgeoning this discussion and improve it. Such improvement should take place not in main space, hence draftification is the proper remedy to allow cleanup. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 22:01, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
LOL, nominating a list for deletion because of NOTDIR is not the "challenge" that policy is thinking of. If you think individual entries are incorrect or false, we can talk about that (though you need to look at their articles first), but otherwise the exception would swallow the rule (material does not become "contentious" just because it is unsourced at present in a given article), and anyone could just bootstrap a BLP wrecking ball onto whatever unrelated disagreement they were having. postdlf (talk) 13:53, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

While AfD is not cleanup, there've been several attempts to cleanup this ghastly mess of an article over the years, all to no avail. It has seven separate tags, going back several years, none particularly addressed, including (per the talk page) serious questions as to the notability of the awards underpinning such notability as the article claims. Much of the article was written, and remains, in untranslated Chinese, and far too many of the references are primary or unreliable.

But as much as anything else, its turgid, poorly translated prose, combined with so much that's trivial and/or irrelevant in a huge 120+ kilobyte article, makes this a prime TNT candidate, and that's the chief rationale for this AfD. I would hope and trust that before advocating keeping the article, anyone so moved attempt a meaningful cleanup.

But I don't see any good reason to delete the article as stubifying can salvage it, and Mccapra has offered to rewrite the article. I feel like clearing it to the infobox + "Loong Kim Sang (born 4 November 1944) is a Cantonese opera performer" + a source would be a good start while the article gets back on track.

No outside sources; amalgam of defunct organizations with no tie to the title White 720 (talk) 03:13, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea what this article is meant to refer to. It is entitled "National Strategy for a Sustainable America," (NSSA) which in theory would refer to a strategy or campaign by this name. The first sentence describes it as "National Strategy for Sustainability" as implemented in the United States. It also refers to a "President's Council on Sustainable Development" in the 1990s and to a "Director of Sustainable Development" that existed as of 2010, but does not assert that either of these entities are related to the NSSA or that the NSSA ever existed by that name. There is one outside source, the Citizens Network for Sustainable Development (CitNet), whose web site is out of service and whose provenance and notability are neither known nor asserted in the article. CitNet is mentioned in paragraphs 2 and 3, the second of which discusses a Change.org petition that was supposedly popular but has no reported media coverage. Paragraph 4 is an unfulfilled offer by an unnamed person to post more details on this page. Paragraph 5 mentions two other sustainability efforts not necessarily related to the NSSA. In total, I come away from this article utterly confused about what, if anything, the NSSA is and even whether it ever existed. This page reads like speculation and original research instead of an encyclopedic and factual article. White 720 (talk) 03:18, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I started editing here on the Wikipedia last year and started off by uploading this article, I wasn't aware of there being separate NG for this category until today, so I got right into editing it, I've read through the notability guideline you've linked and I understand why this article is being nominated for deletion, but is there a way I could save this article? I'm not trying to boast or argue in any way but I spent alot of time researching off the Wikipedia and editing this draft and it eventually passed through the AFC review, which I still don't understand how it did either because I thought the reviewer would've known that the criteria was not met from the beginning.

  • Comment. I declined a prod on this a month ago because I found some sources (now in the article). I'm iffy on notability as well, but wanted to point out that this is not really a hotel—or, if it is, it's not notable for being a hotel. Its main claim to fame is as a restaurant. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 14:28, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. To add to AleatoryPonderings's note from above, in the Indian context, often times, hotel is used synonymously with restaurants. Specifically regarding Woodlands, this particular hotel has some heritage notability as well. I see that a couple of books have also been added to the references list.

No evidence of any notability. All the refs from 9 onwards simply acknowledge that some legal names have worked at the company. The earlier refs are press releases and similar that confirm the firm exists, that it has been involved in take-overs but nothing about the firm that helps to establish notability. Searches find adverts and listings etc but nothing that gets close to

  • I'm inclined to think that there must be more to be found on the predecessor firms, Day, Berry & Howard LLP and Pitney Hardin LLP, which were both quite old at the time of the merger. I would move to draft with a draft note indicating that this is an area suitable for expansion, if sources can be found. There is some interesting coverage of the merger by Above the Law, which basically notes that it papers over the respective weaknesses of the two firms, without really making them competitive with bigger firms. BD2412 T 19:45, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • !Vote changed to leaning keep per improvements and indications of further room for improvement. The article still needs to be refactored to more clearly represent the full history of the predecessor entities as elements of the current entity. BD2412 T 03:53, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I agree with BD2412, I'd move this to draft and let someone potentially improve it rather than delete. I don't have time or interest in working on it, but just a quick search reveals that there does appear to be meaningful media coverage of this firm, so it's not completely unthinkable that it would warrant inclusion. Here are some potential sources that someone could pull notable references from if they wanted to improve this article:

The result was keep. No-one seems to question the fact that there is substantial coverage in reliable sources, but some editors argue that the fact that the sources are regional or local means that they should be disregarded in the discussion of notability. None of the editors arguing for this view, however, have pointed to any Wikipedia policy or guideline that support this position.

WP:GNG requires that the sources are reliable and independent of the subject, not that they necessarily are national. Pax:Vobiscum (talk) 11:40, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply

Reply. @SportsOlympic: what I am saying is that a local newspaper is not enough to establish notability even if it is entirely about the person, if it was acceptable I could create dozens more mages. An article needs to be all about the person in a national news source to first establish notability then you can use local news to complete the wikipedia article. I have created many pages and this is the biggest hurdle in establishing a persons notability. If you find a news article outside the person's country thats considered international news which is better than national. Australianblackbelt (talk) 08:51, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As long there are multiple articles published in reliable, independent secondary sources independent of the subject (could be well established local secondary sources) it counts for notability. Other good example of an article I created of a person based on regional secondary sources: Arnol Kox. SportsOlympic (talk) 06:22, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@SportsOlympic: One of the tons of reasons we don’t except local news sources is that every local mayor on the planet would be on Wikipedia because they are in the local papers every month. Don’t get upset if someone nominates Mr Kox’s page for deletion cause it would get deleted 100% Australianblackbelt (talk)

  • Delete. It is in the nature of local news to focus on local citizens who win something, regardless of the age level of the competition. Now, this speed skater was a junior competitor who also accomplished something on a national level, but not an international level. And there is not exactly a shortage of Dutch speed skaters who have went on to international level. This is why local news coverage doesn't necessarily bestow notability on people.

  • Comment: It looks like there was an exhibition at the Frazier History Museum and a book by the same name, that was put out by Daniel Joseph Watkins (one of the directors) that received some coverage. ([86], [87], [88], [89], [90]) This documentary looks to be a branching off of this. However that said, even if we were to argue that the exhibition and book could establish some notability, this wouldn't show that the documentary is independently notable. If there's more I may argue that there should be a page for the exhition/book with mention of the documentary, but I want to find more coverage first.

  • Covered here and here as well. Leaning towards maybe making an article for the exhibit or perhaps Watkins and covering all of this there, since it'd be easier to merge all of this into a biography than try to justify that the film is an offshoot of the exhibit, which could be OR.

  • Keep Breana Geering is already one of the most prominent female street skaters of her generation. She was the first female rider for Girl (the skateboarding equivalent of signing for Manchester United or the LA Lakers), and she is one of a handful of female skaters to have had a multi-page interview in Thrasher magazine. Thrasher also placed her 6th in their list of the best female and non-binary skaters last year. It's important to remember that notability in skateboarding, like surfing, climbing etc., is often not connected to competitions. I think the article could do with some more sources to establish notability so that this deletion discussion doesn't come up again, but the 6th best female skater in the world (according to skateboarding's premier publication) is certainly notable enough for inclusion.

My research to improve KVZK-TV (KVZK-2) indicates that none of this information is true:

  • KVZK-TV slimmed down to three channels (2/4/5) in 1977
  • There is no AFN broadcast over the air that has come up in any of my searches
  • There is no broadcast channel 8 in any mention of KVZK after reducing its channel set
  • The actual KVZK-TV converted to digital from analog over a decade ago
  • The ERP listed would never have been assigned to an analog station

This is a hoax posted by an editor,

  • Delete - this seems to be an article created by a user with good intentions, but I unfortunately can't find many reliable sources on the bus stop that would establish notability to meet GNG. The page is almost an orphan, the only mainspace page on WP it is linked to is Sunbus Cairns (which even then only links to the infobox), so there don't appear to be any valid alternatives to deletion. I have moved some of the sourced material to Cairns#Bus but there is no need to merge or redirect. The image appears to be a copyvio so unfortunately likely to be deleted.

I prodded this with "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing

WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. ". It was deprodded by User:Atlantic306 with a comment "a valid split from the main article or suggest merge and redirect to University of Colombo". Sadly, this article has no independently referenced content to merge (while it has several references, they all seem to be from the school website or from people affiliated the school), so if prod was disputed, time to discuss a simple deletion, unless anyone can find independent references to suggest this sub-university division is actually independently notable?

This article was previously nominated for deletion back in May 2005 and kept. Though 15 years later it remains on Wikipedia and I don't know if it should be purged (no pun intended) from Wikipedia or if there is enough editing that can remove most of the original research that the article has been tagged with since this past June can save this article besides an episode of Mo Rocca’s Mobituaries podcast and possibly the book companion that discuss this topic as references.

  • Keep. Notable topic (see GBooks), and content is sourced. Looks like Rural_purge#Replacement_shows should be cut substantially if it's not sourceable, but otherwise I don't see the problem. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 03:07, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It is not a strong initial argument when the nominator says I don't know if it should be purged. What we have is a tag accusing this of being Original Research. That is the opinion (and on my personal page, I equate these tags to vandalism, so my opinion of a tag is clear) of ONE EDITOR. We have currently 22 sources, several covering the same territory as the article, the prose in the article has some pretty substantial basis. Essentially the NOM's "I don't know" based on the earlier editor's generalized commentary could prevent a future generation from learning about phenomenon of our history from wikipedia; the number one source of information on the internet. For those placing tags, come up with the goods. Be specific about what you think is wrong and let other editors react to it. After leaving that tag, the editor, probably justifiably, removed an entire section of loosely associated information about a swath of series ending, not all being rural series but shows that generally skewed older. Problem solved, right? Except he left the damned tag. Leaving a tag with no basis devalues the look of wikipedia content, this article and attracts nuisance AfDs like this.

  • Vague and vexatious banner tags are best dealt with removing them rather than the entire article. I have done so. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:33, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. To my broader point; most editors, even an experienced editor as I might claim to be, will generally not mess with tags. Tags languish for years, with no power to cause action. That is unless we have a situation like this, where an editor is unfamiliar with the subject or value of the content and causes a problem like this AfD. There must be millions of tags on articles I don't frequent and don't care about. Kilroy was here.Trackinfo (talk) 03:04, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep "Fancruft" is not a valid reason for deletion, per
    WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Furthermore the music of Streets of Rage is rather notable with Yuzo Koshiro being known as one of the greatest composers in video game music alongside greats like Nobuo Uematsu. In other words, this is clearly notable.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 04:48, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply

  • Merge or delete to Streets of Rage. Most of the sources seem to be about the game and not specifically about the music. Plus, there's already a section for it in Streets of Rage. So, this is needless FORK. It is also pretty FANCRAFT heavy and TNT would likely apply. Once the FANCRAFT is chopped out it would be almost exactly or less then the amount of content in the main Streets of Rage article. So, there's zero reason to keep it. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:40, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A few things. For one, the Games Rader article is purely a non-neutral opinion piece. References are suppose to be in-depth descriptions of the subject. Which doesn't include the authors personal feelings. Maybe to a slight degree if it's album review or something similar, but that's not the article is. The author of the piece, Joe McNeilly, has only written a few pieces for Games Rader. One of which is called "Portal is the most subversive game ever." Which among other hyperbolic things has the lines "This modern masterpiece shakes the FPS genre to the very core" and "Warning: The text you are about to read contains heady intellectual discourse." No one with any kind of integrity about this would say that Portal (video game) or any other article in Wikipedia should be a place for "heady intellectual discourse." This isn't a "philosophy of gaming" blog and portal being the most supervise game ever is purely a single persons opinions. Same goes for the stuff in this article. It being on gaming blog website is inconsequential to that. Joe McNeilly is not an expert in the field video games. He's hardly even a writer of video game articles. It would be analogous to using a guest writer for Breitbart News (or hell any writer) to justify putting in Donald Trump that he's the best president ever. That's not how Wikipedia or notability works. You couldn't even get away with by citing the person. But in this case, the fawning things about Streets of Rages music are not quoted and they are written as if it's they are the opinion of Wikipedia. Which is simply miss-leading and not true. Although I doubt it, maybe you get away with a very similar article how it is now, but again, most of it would have to be in direct quotes so it's clear Wikipedia isn't taking a stance in any direction. No one is going to re-write it that way though. Nor should they have to. Which is exactly why TNT applies. Ultimately though, notability doesn't come down to some random person saying something is cool or whatever. --Adamant1 (talk) 22:04, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I do not see any proof that this "Joe McNeilly" is not knowledgeable about video games. Maybe GamesRadar+ had lower standards 10+ years ago and were down with the posting of parody articles and the like, but there are plenty of his articles that also seem like totally legit reviews. One does not simply discount an article wholesale due to the existence of other articles that might be goofy. They obviously hired him on a site, editorially approved him and told him to write such an article. With the way you are ranting about it, I doubt that would convince you, but those are the facts.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 02:48, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm discounting the article because of it sounds. That there are other goofy sounding articles around the same time by the same guy just add context to the fact that it's not a article. They could have hired a monkey to beat on a keyboard. That's not the point though. That aside, even if the article was a serious one about the music, it isn't in-depth anyway. As most it is off topic. The fact that the focus of this AfD is on a single, clearly not serious or in-depth article just goes to show this isn't notable. Even if it was though, that still doesn't mean it couldn't just be a section of the Streets of Rage article. Plenty of notable topics still aren't forks and I have to hear an argument from anyone why it's not a good option. Just personal opinions about the nominators motivations based on an irrelevant essay and things like "keep because Joe McNeilly sarcastically thinks it's the best music ever and someone told him to write the article." --Adamant1 (talk) 17:47, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
