  • I dream of horses, Sources are not PRs, If you mention any, I will delete that. Their are many authentic sources about subject.~-Ameen Akbar (talk) 21:00, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete While there are reliable sources mentioning the subject, they are mainly passing mentions (which isn't unusual for someone working in journalism). The exception to this are the Daily Pakistan and UrduPoint articles, which focus on the subject. However, those two articles by themselves aren't enough to build the case for notability. This is a person still at the start of their career so it's possible enough reliable sources proving notability will emerge in the coming years, but for now the article is too soon.--SouthernNights (talk) 18:24, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Daily Pakistan, UrduPoint, Mashable Pakistan and Siasat.pk News Blog are some reliable sources.-Ameen Akbar (talk) 19:38, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per SouthernNights. The Daily Pakistan and UrduPoint articles are actually the same article and that, given the tone (ex: telling the reader to follow the subject on Twitter), points to it being a paid PR article. Best, GPL93 (talk) 16:53, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    From what I see, this is the Daily Pakistan article, and this is the UrduPoint one. They look like different articles to me. However, according to both articles Aziz is associated with
    WP:Independent source. But the Daily Pakistan source looks fine to me. Finally, I understand what you're saying about the tone, but I think that the journalistic culture in that part of the world is different.VR talk 02:17, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply

The bundled deletion discussion got out of hand, so let's try again with the individual units which are clearly not notable. Although it is a combination of SI base units, the quantity it measures (specific relative angular momentum) is obscure enough that whatever notability that quantity has, there's not enough to trickle out to the unit that measures it.

  • Comment (AfD nominator) Since this deletion discussion brought it to my attention, I went through and rewrote the Specific angular momentum article. In doing the research for that, I realized that while it's a USEFUL concept, it's not terribly commonly used. It doesn't turn up in most classical mechanics textbooks, since they primarily just use the full form of the angular momentum. Given that, I'd say there's definitely not enough notability in this concept to pass on to the unit. PianoDan (talk) 16:31, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Viscosity#Kinematic_viscosity where it is mentioned as a unit. But I think deletion is fine, too. As a plausible search term, I cannot imagine there would be many searches for metre squared per second. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 00:51, 21 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per
    WP:DIRECTORY. Sure, we could find a bunch of independent sources covering this very specific SI unit, but this content is not useful for an encyclopedia. I disagree with redirecting to Viscosity#Kinematic_viscosity because that is like having President of the United States redirect to Joe Biden; there are other quantities that have these units and it is not super helpful or clear to redirect to one of them in particular.

Bisaat (TV series)

This article as written does not satisfy

general notability
. The article says nothing about Reception of the show, and appears to be left over from before it first aired, so that it cannot be verified that the series has indeed started.

The only references all predate the scheduled start date of the show and are announcements that it is planned, so that there is no

significant coverage
of an actual series.

Number Reference Remarks Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 Dailytimes.com.pk Announcement that actress will perform as lead No No Yes No
2 Bolnews.com Announcement that actress will perform as lead No No Yes No
3 Images.Dawn.com Announcement that actress and actor will perform as leads in series No No Yes No

It was already moved back to draft space once, and has then been moved back to article space, so that another draftification would be

Non notable bureaucrat. She is among the first female fire officers in the state of Tamil Nadu in India. She has since risen to the position of joint director which is equivalent to the regional head in one of the divisions of the fire services in the state. The president's annual medals for gallantry are also not a metric of notability as they are awarded to quite a few people every year. There are some references wherein she has put out statements pertaining to some fire incidents but nothing to indicate she passes

WP:GNG. Also it appears to have been made and largely edited by somebody closely associated with the subject who initially created this article with a wonderfully misleading title First fire women in India without any reference to back this up while mentioning that she was only one among the first fire women within the article. To know more about how common the award is please refer Pg. 849 here - https://dgfscdhg.gov.in/sites/default/files/Notifications.pdf and take a look at the long list of awardees.

One event is not implied by me, as I believe there is a clear case of failing
WP:GNG. All the events in the article are part of her routine work. Also the awards are not notable enough to merit her an article as discussed above.

The page's source is a Facebook page, which points back to our article as its official website.

No evidence of a notable community here; article is sourced only to maps. BEFORE search returned passing mentions regarding road construction, a cemetery and other miscellany but nothing that would establish notability. –dlthewave ☎ 02:42, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The State of Wyoming finds the community sufficiently notable to maintain a nearly 4-mile (6.4 km) state highway with the primary purpose of serving the community. (Also, sources other than maps have been added.) An Errant Knight (talk)
  • GNIS - unreliable feature descriptions, doesn't show notability.
  • findagrave.com - unreliable, user-generated content, anyway doesn't give any significant coverage.
  • blacksforkriverlodge.com - a hotel website and not a reliable, independent source. Notably it does not appear to mention Millburne at all.

Eddy - Every one of those is a pure bare mention, not significant coverage that could be used to show a GNG pass. Simply being an "actual town" (i.e., a location on the map) is not a keep argument, because Wikipedia is not a gazetteer and does not host bare gazetteer listings. In more detail:
  • One of the several purposes of Wikipedia is as a gazetteer, it simply is not MERELY a gazetteer. So we have a low bar for notability for towns/settlements, because they generally are presumed to have some coverage, even if before the internet era. This bar does not include rail sidings and GNIS-defined "locales" however. As you can see here, Millburn had a population of 149 in 1930 and 161 in 1940, so a small town but reporting census figures. Seems to be some coverage here but I cannot access. Same here. So nit seems there is enough to work with for an article. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 01:51, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Where was it ever decided that Wikipedia suddenly becomes something other than an encyclopaedia when we are writing about geographical locations? There is a very strong consensus that
Wikipedia is not a database
.
The census source above is for the census-tract of which Milburne was part (Uinta county's "district 8" on p. 1187) . Census-tracts are excluded from proving notability under WP:GEOLAND, the wisdom of which is shown in the description of p.1187 in its description of how the districts of Uinta were simply chopped and changed all the time. The book is another bare mention ("Mr. and Mrs. Henry both homesteaded in the Robertson and Milburne, Wyoming areas") - we cannot write an encyclopaedia article that basically states the names of completely non-notable people who were born/lived/died in a place and nothing else.

  • Comment - A lot of "but of course there's sources" without any actual sources giving significant coverage or showing legal recognition having been added to the article. Simply being a "community" or an "established community" does not make it notable. A man named Fisher lived there - not significant coverage of Milburne. A mormon station was at the same site - not significant coverage of Milburne. There was a census-tract that covered the same area - not significant coverage of Milburne or proof of legal recognition. Some sources about the water-quality of Blackfork river - not significant coverage of Milburne. Some maps - not significant coverage of Milburne. FOARP (talk) 14:43, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This denomination does not meet the

WP:NCHURCH
notability criteria, so I believe the article should be deleted.
The only secondary reliable source which describes this church is one from almost a century ago and which I have not been able to check. The other sources seem to be primary source. All I could find on this denomination is that it seems to have existed between 2011 and 2015 according to official UK data.
As a sidenote, one of the sources is a website titled Old Roman Catholic Church Latin Rite. Is this another denomination? Is it another name for the supposed "Old Roman Catholic Church in Europe" denomination? Veverve (talk) 20:37, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Hurst was elected and has served as the chair of the Rural Caucus for many years now. https://iowademocrats.org/scc-3/ He has been a staunch advocate for rural communities in Iowa and progressive values. He also serves as a City Council member in Minden, Iowa. Comparatively to the most densely populated states in America, being a city-county council member to a city of 600 may not seem notable, but according to the Iowa Department for Public Health, approximately 43% of Iowa's population lives in rural communities like these. https://idph.iowa.gov/Portals/1/Files/IowaHealthWorkforce/Safety%20Resource%20Plan%201.pdf As an elected official of the Iowa Democratic Party as the Rural Caucus chair and an elected official in a rural community in a state that is 43% rural, I would argue that Dr. Glenn Hurst is a notable political figure in Iowa.

I found nothing on this group. The 2009 Melton's encyclopedia of American religions has nothing on this group. Both websites given in the article are dead. The other website given in the last working archive of the website of this group (2009) has one archive from 2013. None of the two website give us any clue to try to find any shred of notability for this group. The article has been created in 2006, and since then no one has added any single source which could be used to argue the notability of this group.
All I have been able to find on this group is this page of a non-notable denomination, which states: "Father Robert Lyons [...] has also served as the Chair of the Worship Commission for the Christian Church - Synod of Saint Timothy (and it's predecessor, the Society of Saint Timothy)."

  • Delete or alternatively redirect/merge to Porthos Range - This article was literally COPIED directly from GNIS. Not a COPYVIO per se as GNIS is public domain but honestly we need to do better than a single-source article that consists only of data copied directly from a database, with NO indication of notability, and that's it. This is a classic example of why Wikipedia is not a gazetteer because Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia and we have encyclopaedic articles with actual content in them, and not simply entries from a database of every named feature in an unpopulated continent.

The result was delete. The "delete" arguments are substantially stronger in the light of the applicable guidelines. These guidelines are, to summarize: (a) notability requires substantial coverage in sources (

WP:NGRIDIRON
).

The "keep" side's arguments are limited to invoking the NGRIDIRON guideline, but they do not address that NGRIDIRON only establishes a presumption of notability, which can therefore be rebutted. That's the argument the "delete" side makes: they argue that since no substantial coverage in reliable sources can be found about this man, the presumption of notability established by NGRIDIRON has successfully been rebutted.

And it is this argument by the "delete" side that is not addressed adequately by the "keep" side. To do so, they'd need to cite specific notability-establishing sources to rebut the rebuttal of the presumption of notability. Because they fail to do so, I must give their views less weight and find a rough consensus in favor of deletion, taking into consideration the weight of the arguments presented.

Not disputing that "ultimately" it needs to pass GNG, but this is a relatively new article that is a clear pass of NGRIDIRON that has been developing nicely. This is not like so many cricket substubs that have existed for more than 10 years and remained in bare-bones condition. The presumption of notability should be credited in this case. Cbl62 (talk) 14:51, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's had a full year for editors to expand. Are we supposed to wait 2 or 5 or 10 years for a stub to get attention? Why not userify/draftify and list it at the gridiron project as an article to find sources for, like many subjects are at Women in Red? No other biographies outside sports enjoy such a grace period for editors to add material after a topic has been brought to AfD. JoelleJay (talk) 04:00, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify??? I see no reason for that, the article appears to be in great shape IMO. Also, unlike Women In Red, it seems few editors in WP:NFL work on historical articles of this era (besides me and Cbl62), so I doubt it would get much attention in draft. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:46, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
So the hope is that a hypothetical editor in the future who happens to have access to local/offline refs will stumble across this article, realize it lacks SIGCOV sourcing, and expand it accordingly? What if they can't find sources? Would it be acceptable to delete it then?
Most of the current sources, and the bulk of the article, are in this section:

A player identified by the name "Vainowski" or "Vanowski" also played line positions for other professional football teams in Illinois from 1923 through the early 1930s, including the following appearances:
"Vanowski" played for the Rockford Gophers during the 1923 season, recording a safety against the Moline Indians.
"Vainowski" (sometimes referred to "Vanowski") played at the right guard and left guard positions for Joey Sternaman's Pullman Panthers of the Midwest Football League in 1924. He was described as one of the "shining lights of the Pullman squad."
"Vanowski" played for the Harvey Athletic Association (Harvey, Illinois) professional football team during the 1925 season.
"Vainowski" returned to the Pullman professional football team in 1929.
"Vainowski", identified as a 238-pound tackle out of Loyola, again played for Chicago's Pullman Panthers in 1931.

, which is just trivial mentions and smacks of
WP:OR, and the only coverage of "him" is from two bare-bones obits that don't even mention his NFL career. JoelleJay (talk) 23:16, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
@JoelleJay: @Reywas92: Vainowski is admittedly an edge case, and so I understand your skepticism. If it were to be deleted, it would not be a significant blow to Wikipedia's coverage of American football. That being said, this discussion raises two important points.
First, not every biographical article needs to be capable of expansion into a Feature Article. If this article is never expanded beyond where it is today, it still represents legitimate and valuable encyclopedic content IMO. The NFL is the tippy top of the pyramid in the sport of professional American football, and Vainowski was one of the pioneer players in the early days of the sport. The current article hits the essential points. Vainowski played professional football for nine years from 1923 to 1931. Unlike the modern game, players did not become rich from playing professional football in the 1920s. Accordingly, and as reflected in the article, Vainowski returned to a normal life, working for the telephone company for 34 years, marrying and having four children. There is not a lot more that can be said, or that needs to be said, about Vainowski.
Second, it is important to keep in mind that NGRIDIRON is very tightly focused. The only players from the years prior to World War II who qualify for a presumption of notability are those from the NFL from 1921 to 1939. This in stark contrast to rugby and soccer, where we have SNGs that purport to establish notability for tens of thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands?) of players who appeared in as little as one game in dozens of leagues at varying levels (top of the pyramid and on down to the middle of the pyramid) and for more than two centuries of competition. The rugby and soccer SNGs have resulted in a plethora of sub-stubs and have drawn the ire of many editors. While some sports have failed to properly tailor their SNGs, American football is not one of those sports. NGRIDIRON was tightly focused alreaady, and in the past year we have narrowed it even further by eliminating the Arena Football League and squashing efforts to add the World Football League. Earlier this year, I also proposed raising the bar to two games (which BTW would have excluded Vainowski), but that proposal did not find consensus.
My overall point: The NFL notability guideline is not a problem area for Wikipedia. Vainowski presents an edge case where reasonable minds can and will differ, but IMO the article already presents sufficient encyclopedic content and should be kept. Cbl62 (talk) 14:26, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If the NFL was so different in this period that playing in it wasn't even worth mentioning in a 1950s obituary, and as a consequence all we can gather on him is insignificant scraps from non-NFL game reports, then I think the only value to the encyclopedia of having a standalone article is to satisfy a sense of completion rather than provide encyclopedic coverage. If he hadn't played this one game, he would 100% not have an article; and since this one game did not garner SIGCOV of him--to the extent that someone asking for info on his team's composition just 9 years later received almost nothing from someone in contact with its manager--then what does this article achieve that can't be mentioned in a redirect to the team/season/etc.? JoelleJay (talk) 20:48, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You raise valid points User:JoelleJay which is why I advocated a two-game minimum for NGRIDIRON. I wish my proposal had been accepted. There is however a legit POV that the NFL is different and special. Press coverage of the NFL in the 1920s was not as it became later but there is a reasonable view that the early pioneers of the NFL should be Wikipedia notable for their early contributions in getting the NFL started. On balance, though, no tears will be shed if this particular one game NFLer is deleted. Cbl62 (talk) 13:59, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have been closely following American football AfDs for the past decade and can verify that we have not (to my recollection) ever deleted an NFL player. As noted above, the NFL is the tippy top of the American football pyramid. I did propose this summer raising the bar to two NFL games, but that proposal was soundly rejected by the community. Cbl62 (talk) 15:38, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Nosebagbear: While I've only been on wikipedia for a year, I've searched extensively through Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/American football/archive to check the consensus of American football AFDs—and—as I've repeatedly stressed, found that no NFL player has ever been denied of an article (I'll note that in c. 2009 several were deleted, but later restored when their professional career was found). If you're not sure that's the case, then you can look at every American football AFD with "delete" as the result in the past decade to be sure. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:13, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Cbl62 and BeanieFan11: my delete !vote included several aspects on this. I do indeed imagine that very few NFL players fail AfD, but I also imagine that very few of those fail GNG (more strictly, NBASIC). Here, we would seem to have a person who does fail GNG, whilst passing GRIDIRON. You've not contested that the NSPORTS criteria necessitate passing GNG as well. If you believe that it's sufficiently falling out of being descriptive, then the logical act would be for one of you two to formally request a policy change to exempt the GRIDIRON scope from GNG (in the same way as NPROF is).

This is absolutely not a POV fork. There are plenty of articles and journals which discuss the African American ethnicity at length as a specific lineage to those who are descendants of slavery.

ComentThis is simply not true. The article African Americans makes the claim that anyone of the black racial group is classified as African American. The article that I created is specifically for those who are descendants of chattel slaves in the United States, which are a genetically, culturally, and historically distinct ethnic group from Caribbean, African, and Afro-Latino immigrants in the United States. The Britannica article which I used as a source also notes this distinction clearly. I have stated previously that Nigerian Americans, Jamaican Americans, Kenyan Americans, Ghanaian Americans, Haitian Americans, and every other Black immigrant ethnic group has a specific Wikipedia page for their people, and yet there is not one for African American descendants of slaves. 95% of Black immigrants do not identify with the term African American, as is cited in the page. I do not see the issue here, as the author of the African Americans page has clearly stated that content contained within that page is pertaining simply to race and not ethnicity. --Taharka155 (talk) 12:52, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Those attributes can include common sets of traditions, ancestry, language, history, society, culture, nation, religion, or social treatment within their residing area".

  • Keep The Article is not a fork of African Americans. That article clearly states in the introductory statements that it is a category based upon race, and includes a multitude of ethnic groups. African Americans (ethnicity) is properly cited, and gives ample information of what distinguishes it from the that article. There is a clear distinction between ethnic African Americans and for example Kenyan Americans, or Jamaican Americans, both of whom have pages dedicated to them that exclude African Americans who descend from enslaved people. I have a number of cited genetic, historical, cultural, and socioeconomic differences that clearly distinguish these groups from those African Americans who descend from slaves brought to the United States, which clearly identify them as a separate ethnic group, something that the article African Americans simply does not do. Information pertaining to African American slave descendants such as their history and culture is vast and it deserves its own separate article. --Taharka155 (talk) 20:05, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment The article is about an ethnicity called "African Americans" which excludes each and every person not descended from enslaved Americans. None of the given sources supports the existence of such a group. --Rsk6400 (talk) 08:03, 21 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment @Rsk6400: The sources you provided when you described African Americans as an ethnic group, do not make any mention of ethnicity, only race. "The Black racial category includes people who marked the “Black, African Am., or Negro” checkbox. It also includes respondents who reported entries such as African American; Sub-Saharan African entries, such as Kenyan and Nigerian; and Afro-Caribbean entries, such as Haitian and Jamaican." This clearly denotes several ethnicities, with African American being specifically listed apart from Haitian Americans, Jamaican Americans, etc. --Taharka155 (talk) 12:57, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment @Rsk6400: - The ethnicity which I've provided many citations for as being distinct genetically, culturally, historically and in socioeconomics from other Black immigrant ethnicities doesn't exist..... This is ethnocidal language that erases an ethnicity and contrary to everything cited within the article and the works of many notable historians and anthropologists.

In the US, a distinction between "race" and "ethnicity" with regards to African Americans is not clearly drawn. There is no justification for two separate articles. As for your claims regarding Americans who are recent African migrants, the African American article notes: The term African American generally denotes descendants of enslaved Africans who are from the United States,while some Black immigrants or their children may also come to identify as African-American and According to U.S. Census Bureau data, African immigrants generally do not self-identify as African American. The overwhelming majority of African immigrants identify instead with their own respective ethnicities (~95%). Immigrants from some Caribbean, Central American, and South American nations and their descendants may or may not also self-identify with the term. Hemiauchenia (talk) 18:43, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@
Haitian American, etc. There's no reason for any of those groups to have ethnic articles when the largest and oldest black ethnicity in the United States, descendants of Americans slaves who have a unique history, culture, genetic profile, and socioeconomic circumstances do not have an article. Even when so many anthropologists and historians have distinguished them as an ethnic group. Even the quotation from the Census provided above distinguishes African Americans as a separate ethnic group.--Taharka155 (talk) 20:35, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete This is an essentialist
    WP:POVFORK of African Americans under wrong premises that The article African Americans makes the claim that anyone of the black racial group is classified as African American.

    • comment@Austronesier: This is very opening statement of the African Americans article "African Americans (also referred to as Black Americans and formerly, Afro-Americans) is an ethnic group consisting of Americans with partial or total ancestry from any of the Black racial groups of Africa". I'm not paraphrasing. People who are Kenyan Americans and Jamaican Americans are included in the article, and it includes the history of voluntary immigration from Africa in recent decades. As I've previously stated, there are dozens of wikipedia articles that distinguish other Black American ethnic groups such as Ethiopian Americans that exclude African American descendants of slaves, and yet there is not a single wikipedia page dedicated to that group. The citation provided from the Census bureau even makes the distinction between these groups. There's no reason why wikipedia should not have an article dedicated to this ethnicity, other than a very blatant and systematic attempt to erase their unique culture and history in America. Claims that is has no place on Wikipedia is proven wrong by the great many articles for Black ethnicities that exclude this ethnicity.--Taharka155 (talk) 22:12, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • You're not paraphrasing, but you're omitting the following sentences, and by doing so you misrepresent what the article actually is about. It's a straw argument. And the complete denial of the possibility that people with different ancestry can assimilate into and be accepted by the mainstream of the African American community as one of theirs is an insular view. Spell out that "People who are Kenyan Americans" refers to Barack Obama, who you don't consider to African American only because of his "bloodline". –Austronesier (talk) 09:08, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Austronesier: The same way that African American slave descendants are excluded from being labeled Kenyan American and are featured no where in the Kenyan Americans article, yet they can be in the article for African Americans… No one can “assimilate” into the Kenyan American community, but the African American community is just some open door for anyone with Black skin according to people who aren’t even African American. There is some very clear bias going on here against people who are slave descendants, along with false ideas being spread by people who are not African American and learn about Black people in some book.Taharka155 (talk) 13:10, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Possible hoax article. From a quick look there's no mention of this god other than wikipedia-derived sources, and the sole reference(added ~2008) may fall into that category itself. There's no mention in the Journal of the Polynesian Society, which has a lot of early Polynesian mythology material (at least as collected by pakeha). As it cannot be verified by reputable, independent sources, I propose deletion. --IdiotSavant (talk) 05:47, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - Looking at the book "MYTHS AND LEGENDS OF THE POLYNESIANS" (predates Wikipedia), it says this: "The ones with whom Pele had the angry contention were Kukui-lau-manienie and Kukui-lau- hanahana, daughters of Lima-loa, god of the mirage." It also mentions the two daughters in the glossary.
Also, looking at the book "Pacific mythology : an encyclopedia of myth and legend" by Jan Knappert (also predates Wikipedia), it says this: "Mirage - The goddess who deludes voyagers by showing them non¬ existing countries on the horizon is called Kuku Lau." So maybe real, but not enough for an article. wizzito | say hello! 23:17, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a directory of musicians and bands currently signed to a specific record label. It's entirely sourced to Island's websites, and includes many non-notable musicians. Lists of "current" things are rarely encyclopedic to begin with, and this one is infrequently edited, so it's doubtful that it's actually current. Fails

This article has previously been deleted twice under CSD criterion

WP:G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion. Those versions were almost identical, but written by a different editor. A third nomination was declined
with the rationale that "his has some nice references."

The current version of the article has citations that to a casual reader might look like significant coverage of a successful artists in independent, reliable sources. A closer look shows that Bowen is a (barely) emerging artist, who has not received any critical attention by experts in the serious art press, but did receive some promotional coverage (she has seemingly hired a PR agency) by wellness, lifestyle and beauty editors in fashion, interior design and lifestyle magazines. Lifestyle magazine may be reliable in some contexts, but here they are not, because they lack the expertise to writing knowingly about the subject and mostly just repeat what she says about herself. She meets none of our notability criteria for artists,

WP:ARTIST
, has not been exhibited in a real gallery (a bar or restaurant doesn't count), has not won any awards and is not represented in any museum collections, or otherwise received any significant critical attention.

In summary; this article that promotes the subject with references to paid-for content in unreliable sources by non-experts.

detailed description of sources
  • 2019-09-26 The Times Not significant coverage, but note the caption: Nat Bowen with some of her large-scale resin artworks, which will be on display at the Start contemporary art fair at the Saatchi Gallery in Chelsea. (emphasis mine) What you need to know: The START Art Fair took place from 26-29 September at the Saatchi Gallery. https://startartfair.com/ It is not curated by the Saatchi gallery, participants pay a fee (between £4,500 and £15,000).
  • 2020-10-08 Evening Standard, by Abbianca Makoni, a crime reporter. The headline (note: headlines are typically NOT written by the reporter, but by a cipy editor) is sensational, £100,000 artwork made from meteorite dust and black diamonds to go on show at the Saatchi Gallery. But the Saatchi gallery did not exhibit it, it was merely the venue of an art fair, where Bowen (or her agent) paid for a booth. Note that the article does not report on an event that took place, it's an announcement. The price is also misleading; it's the asking price, not what it sold for, if it sold at all, because it is still listed at https://natbowen.com/back-to-light-saatchi-gallery For the curious, "Black Diamond pigment" is a trade name for a cheap mica-based pigment. 1000 carats of (real) crushed black diamonds may sound expensive, but it really isn't. Diamond powder is a common abrasive, and 200 grams of it might cost as little as 10 USD.
  • 2021-04-12 Forbes is not a reliable source when written by a "Contributor". See
    WP:FORBES
  • 2021-05-10 The Daily Telegraph This was first published in the Business section of The Daily Telegraph and like the Times is a caption of a photo of the artist posing in front of one of her works. This one is supposedly made of "natural pink rose petal pigment" That sounds precious, but rose petal pigment is a commonly used pigment in cosmetics, mostly consisting of iron oxides. Pink diamond powder is also used in cosmetics.
  • 2021-05-28 Vanity Fair This one is not bylined, but written by "V.F. Art" which is hyperlinkeed to https://www.vanityfairart.com/. That domain hasn't go a proper certificate, but redirects to https://www.worldofinteriors.co.uk/interiors-index, another Condé Nast publication that "uniquely places the finest craftsman, artisans, textile designers, galleries, ateliers, artists and workshops at the fingertips of our followers and readers". Also, anything that starts with "is pleased to announce" or "proud to unveil her latest" is a press release.
  • 2021-06-01 Tatler by Hope Coke, the Social Media Editor at Tatler. Again, it's an announcement, not a review, of an event in the bar of a hotel.
  • 2021-06-10 Marie Claire, by Marzia Nicolini their Wellness & Beauty Editor. Basically an advertorial for https://thew1london.com/ (it looks like https://thew1london.com/property/townhouse-5/)
  • 2021-08-06 [14] by Leanne Bayley, Head of Lifestyle. Note the "We may earn a commission for products purchased through links in this article" at the top. One of those links is https://www.dorchestercollection.com/en/london/45-park-lane/art/
  • 2021-09-19 The Up Coming, written by "The editorial unit" calls Bowen "one of the UK’s leading abstract resin artists". That also how Bowen describes herself ("a leading British abstract resin artist"). It's not so clear who the other leading abstract resin artists are.
  • 2021-09-28 Forbes, by Kate Hardcastle, another Forbes Contributor and highly respected and successful businesswoman with award winning success in delivering commercial & successful ventures and partnerships, according to herself. Here Bowen is given space to suggest that her smaller works would make "a possible investment for more people".

Hello, I have undone your changes because the page is still in development and those sources can indeed be replaced by other ones but removing all of them at once will only make things worse by making the job more complicated, even among the press releases, 30% only were Press releases and those releases were from third party companies, i.e OCBC bank and the public investment fund of Saudi arabia, the Articles about the PIF almost exclusively brag about that specific organization and dedicated only one paragraph to Solomartel.The remaining ones, I.e 70% of those were legitimate news articles, those were legitimate articles covering investment deals, they were written in a neutral tone and were not promotional articles, plz add evidence to your claim that would nullify the nature of the article. Moreover, all news outlets need to disclose paid advertising content, even among the Press releases, news organizations always verify the legitimacy of the news pieces before publishing any content on their platforms even for Paid press releases, to try this yourself, contact any PR firm and try to publish any piece of news without clear evidence and having them dig up an investigation. Plz feel free to contribute but plz be more careful with my work so as to not vandalize it, will only make things worse and more difficult for me, I thank you very much in advance. SUPERGTOR (talk) 20:56, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As a new editor, that's never had a previous account here for sure, I can see how you're confused. You chose to create this page in article space; it's live and subject to editorial policy and guidelines. If you'd like to use the draft space in the future, that's probably a good place where you can claim "development" and learn a little more about our guidelines on
reliable sources
. I can see absolutely zero "legitimate news articles", nor can I find anything in a neutral tone. Almost every single source is silly puffery written for paid placement or press releases. The claim that press releases are vetted and fact-checked through the syndicated feeds is absolute nonsense. Most reputable published will clearly denote press reprints and include explicit disclaimers of editorial oversight or involvement. As such, these will never be considered reliable sources for any extraordinary claim, especially not those dealing with financial considerations and return claims. Buy hey, let's look through this crap:
  • disruptmagazine.com: this is one of the worst: it's a paid placement hub for blackhat seo that we're run across a million times before. the guest blogger only posts puffy adcopy across multiple sites. this is not a RS in any way.
  • www.buzzfeed.com/gywobyv/ngf-f3zpnytidb: This is a "community post" from an unknown author with a stolen template photo. no idea why you would this this is acceptable.
  • hindustantimes.com: This is a "Brand post" with an editorial disclaimer ("This content is distributed by Digpu News network. No HT journalist is involved in creation of this content.") On The "Digpu" site, this is clearly marked as a paid placement press release.
  • marketwatch.com: very clearly marked as press release, with a clear disclaimer of oversight.
  • apnews.com: very clearly marked as press release, with a clear disclaimer of oversight.
  • business-standard.com: very clearly marked as press release, with a clear disclaimer of oversight.
  • theprint.in: exact same press release as above, including the same disclaimers.
  • aninews.in: exact same press release as above, including the same disclaimers.
  • ibtimes.sg: this is a depreciated source and cannot be used on Wikipedia at all, please see
    WP:IBTIMES
    . oddly enough, it's depreciated for the exact same reason many of the others are on this list: junk articles that fail to identify paid influences.
  • cyber.harvard.edu: This is pretty interesting. It's an open wiki that was left unmoderated and is now almost 100% pure spam - poke around there a bit. The main page of that wiki starts with "Whether it’s your first wedding anniversary or your 50th, your anniversary is a special day to tell your partner how much you love them" and is covered in spam links. This also comes across as pretty suspect behavior - why in the world would you have thought this was acceptable? How did you evaluate it?
  • canvas.ubc.ca: unpublished student blog post that sources press releases and paid placement junk. This is not, in any way, a peer-reviewed publication by that institution - it would get utterly trashed.
  • deccanchronicle.com: Sorry, the Deccan Chronicle is terrible; they fail to label adcopy all the time. You cannot look at me with a straight face and say "iconic Solomartel real estate fund" or "dubbed by many as America's most profitable publicly available real estate investment" is not complete drivel.
After re-reviewing the sources, I have to ask this: do you have a conflict of interest with this firm? It's very difficult to imagine that you've mis-read the veracity of those sources this poorly. Also, stop with the "vandalism" claims; this is clearly not that. Kuru (talk)

  • Keep, The sources covering the company are legitimate news articles, I learned about this company through the news and it has been covered in a wide array of news outlets in the past 2 years, they are quite well known especially in India, only a minor part of the sources are press releases and this investment fund has been mentioned in a research paper from the University of British Columbia in Canada and many other references exist that demonstrate the notability of the company. Moreover, I have not seen a press release of theirs until now, I only did after seeing your request for deletion here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Simocre (talk • contribs) 19:34, 18 December 2021 (UTC) — Simocre (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

  • Keep,After further consideration of the contents of this deletion request. I have attentively considered it and can relate to your concerns, I do however think that the nomination is not relevant for this particular page. In fact, out of all the references mentioned, 8/12, i.e 67% of them are not press releases but genuine articles in news releases such as Hindustan times (the second largest journal in India), Deccan Chronicles (another well known Indian news outlet), Ibtimes Singapore and many others none of which are press releases and almost all of those news outlets have wikipedia pages.
An article published by the university of British Columbia discussing the influence of the internet on the investment industry mentionned and thoroughly analyzed this company as well as its financial activities and it is that article which influenced my decision of creating the page for this company. This same financial article was featured on the website of the cybersecurity department of the university of Harvard. This is clear academic work which can be considered as legitimate.
Moreover, the only articles which are press releases, i.e 33% of the remaining sources have all been paid by parties other than Solomartel meaning that none of the references used for the creation of this wikipedia page have been paid by Solomartel. Those press releases have been paid by OCBC Bank and The PIF (Public investment fund), the Sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia. These articles focus almost solely on OCBC and the PIF and barely discuss Solomartel, they only cover the invesmtent deal.
I also think that the fact that the company made deals with the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia, the Royal family of Qatar, the Bank of Baroda and OCBC bank (the second largest bank in southeast Asia) are all clear indicators of the notability of the company. I thus think that it would be appropriate to remove the mention for deletion and instead perform a page patrol of the page and adjust certain details (if can find ways of improving the page) before official publication.SUPERGTOR (talk) 19:58, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I added one reference from India's best-known news journal EDtimes which has not yet been added, that one was clearly not paid just as the majority of these sources, the journal regularly covers all sorts of Entrepreneurs, artists and other innovators in India. Moreover, I do believe that a lot of the judgements made previously were incorrect. An Indian perspective is necessary in this case: for instance, Deccan Chronicle is one of India's main news outlets, it is in the top 10 English dailies in India, also they are locally known for not doing PR and screening their content very well compared to Times of India for instance. Here the article is clearly valid, a piece of PR is very easy to distinguish from authentic news and Deccan Chronicle does keep notices of advertisement if the content was paid. Also, I think that with time there will be more references to be used for this investment fund which I will not hesitate to add if I have time, I think it is important to remain calm and neutral with this matter.

  • Keep, The fact that this investment fund signed an investment agreement with the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia shows the notability of the company. Additionally, it is important to remember that in order for company press releases to be accepted, they ask for bank statements as proof of a transaction and they least they do is verify that the publication request has been sent by an email address with the same domain as the companies mentioned in the news releases and verify the stories independently to avoid publishing defamatory statements meant to destroy a company's reputation. Media outlets even ask the participants to comment the reported event as they can still be sued afterwards. Let's take as an example the APnews press release, which was publish by a PR company named Newswire, here is what is written statement on the company's guidelines:
"If a release contains pertinent information that Newswire is unable to verify independently, we serve the right to refuse".
A Simple verification of their website yields this result, same for all other PR companies. The disclaimers stating that "they are not responsible for the content" are there to present the fact that the news outlet does not take responsibility over the views expressed by the organization or the individual which wrote the statement and if a reader is unhappy with the content, they cannot blame the news outlet. This does not mean that the media outlet publishes unverified information without any background checks, that would simply be absurd. And if a magazine, a news channel or any media outlet publishes totally false information, they can and are almost always sued afterwards. --Anjum Sharjeel (talk) 18:31, 21 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I think the notability of this company is undisputed, they have earned the reputation they currently have. Many sources can indeed be removed, mostly because of duplicates which are just uneeded. That being said, most of the sources are good news articles and need to be kept. We cannot judge those articles on the basis of wild speculation and without any proof. For instance, is there any proof that the articles on disrupt are paid other than personal assumptions. Maybe some of you consider those sources as irrelevant due to personal preferences, religious or political beliefs but there is no solid ground to consider those numerous sources as "All paid PR", such comments are simply invalid. Such sayings cannot really be based on anything other than prejudice or paranoia towards those specific sources. Ibtimes is a well known journal and so is Deccan chornicle or Edtimes, a leading youth journal in India and these well known journals are currently in use on thousands of articles of our project. Disrupt magazine is a less reputable source indeed but still it can be part of the reference list, it is not in any way irrelevant to the subject. Unless proof is provided, we cannot reject a thesis...this is common sense I think.Techgadgets (talk) 20:15, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, I notice multiple users removing the sources on this page constantly, given that the discussion for deletion is still ongoing, I would ask that the article be kept in its full current state for everybody to judge it or if you want to adjust a few sources, make sure to do so without vandalizing the entire article. I am under the impression that users who totally remove the content do so with the goal of influencing the discussion given that users cannot check the references and given that all users could have the same idea at the same time, I am suspecting that this may be a case of sockpuppetry. I do want to remind everyone that our goal is to edit and maintain wikipedia to its optimal state, not delete specific articles due to personal preference.Techgadgets (talk) 20:15, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Techgadgets:Yes, I am also starting to suspect that this is a case of sockpuppetry because it is very strange why a few people would all attack the same page at once. The behavioral patterns followed by many of them are the exact same; they just say that all sources are paid PR which is not the case and then vandalize the references. Also the aggression in communication is something that many users in this discussion share. This is all very strange, usually users are a lot kinder to one another and give a variety of arguments but here it looks like it is the same person behind different accounts or they are all friends defending a common cause. Also somebody started a sockpuppetry investigation against me which may also be a way of trying to scare me off from participating. Could you please start a sockpuppetry investigation for me ?

Scholarly sources are not available to prove that this is a valid family of Christianity. Sources instead, list this church as an individual denomination within Protestantism. A single ecumenical source, which is known to self-report the claims of its member churches, is not enough to create a new Church family Macinderum (talk) 07:23, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The WCC is an ecumenical organization that largely self-reports the claims of its member churches. Check this WCC page for example, which says that membership figures for individual member churches, published by WCC, are provided by the churches themselves. Likewise, if the Mar Thoma Church claims that it is also a separate family of its own, then the WCC will report so. Ecumenism will fail, if the WCC starts to question the fanciful claims of its member churches.

Now let's look at what independent scholarly sources say about the Mar Thoma Syrian Church. The Association of Religion Data Archives groups the MTSC with Anglican churches (check proof). Using this source, the MTSC is placed in the Anglican family in pages 448-449 of The Oxford Handbook of Christianity and Economics (2014). The Mar Thoma church has its origins in the Anglican missionary activity, among the Saint Thomas Christians of colonial India, and is in full communion with the Anglican Communion. The book Eastern Christianity and Politics in the Twenty-First Century (2014), published by Taylor & Francis, in page 488 lists the MTSC as an individual church of Protestant confession, and in page 489, says that the MTSC is within the Protestant Episcopalian (Anglican) tradition. Regarding the origins of MTSC the book says in page 568 that,

The Syrian Orthodox also became the target of Anglican missionary activity, as a result of which the Mar Thoma Church separated from the Orthodox in 1874, adopting the Anglican confession of faith and a reformed Syrian liturgy conforming to Protestant principles.

The book Christian Worship Worldwide (2007), published by William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company in page 94, groups various Churches in Kerala into families, and places the MTSC within Protestantism. Thus, reliably published sources does not list the MTSC as a denominational family, but as an individual church within Protestantism.--Macinderum (talk) 10:20, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A number of reasons for not needing this. Firstly it is overly-detailed (e.g. little icons for facilities at individual stations) and reads like an actual railway-company published timetable - wikipedia is not a travel guide

WP:NOTDIR - just because we can list it doesn't mean we should as it's not clear (to me) what value it adds to the encyclopaedia. It is hopelessly out of date. Some of the routes are tagged as correct as-of 2019, some 2020, some not at all. Given that rail companies publish timetables every few months, something that is up to three years out of date again serves no good purpose in an encylopaedia. Then there's the fact it is unique in UK rail Wikipedia articles - there is no other "List of xxx routes" article for other train operating companies in Category:British railway-related lists. Finally it largely duplicates in a less easy to read manner what already exists in the Services section of the parent Northern Trains article. 10mmsocket (talk) 06:17, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply

Yes, (3) made her "famous" as the OP noted, but she was "notable" for (1) and (2) before that happened.
The essay What BLP1E is not informed my thoughts: While (3) is "One Dominant Event", it is not the only event she's notable for. I see "a pattern of involvement in smaller (but still worthy of mention) events", which, considered in aggregate, make the subject notable.
I'm not aware that Epoch Times or "what appeared to be a blog" was ever a source for anything in this article and it isn't currently.

The awards she was nominated for are properly called "Emmy Awards" and were reported in the San Diego Union Tribune with that name. Deleting that source and substituting a name that is not used widely in the industry does not improve the article. While the regional ceremonial awards event sometimes include the name (e.g. "Pacific Southwest Emmy Awards"), but the awards themselves are overwhelmingly referred to in the press as "Emmy Awards" or sometimes "regional Emmy Awards". The "regional" is not meant to be diminutive. The awards are by region so that there is fair competition in covering the same new events, e.g. a TV station in Southern California would not be able to cover Hurricane Katrina as well as a news team in New Orleans, for example. BBQboffin (talk) 18:24, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A regional Emmy is nevertheless a type of Emmy award; as you pointed out, there are Daytime Emmy Awards, Primetime Emmy Awards, etc. and these awards are "well-known and significant". Every single recipient listed on those pages has their own Wikipedia page as one would expect. The Emmy is a well-known and significant award and winners are notable, as are those who have been nominated multiple times. She was the producer and not merely "part of a team".

  • Delete More of a foot note in the Kenosha affair, rather than notable on her own. Oaktree b (talk) 02:17, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

At the time, for Peters, the the only notability factor were the awards (she didn't have a viral coffee video, or a half-dozen news articles naming her in a high-profile murder trial), and with fewer !votes, the result was Keep after just one relist.

Many of the issues were similar: whether regional Emmys should "count" or not as a measure of notability. For a local/regional journalist this Emmy is the most prestigious award they could receive (as they are not eligible to complete nationally), and so to dismiss the regional Emmy award is to dismiss all other awards they won or could be nominated for. The argument for delete is in essence: no local/regional journalist can achieve notability on the basis of winning awards. That argument was rejected in the Susan Peters AfD and it should be rejected once again today. BBQboffin (talk) 03:17, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • BBQboffin, you are missing the forrest for the trees. A few points. First, cherrypicking a single AFD to establish a precedent for regional Emmys is not a valid argument.
    Regional Emmy Awards are not significant awards. They do not receive much media coverage, nor are its winners given much thought or attention for that honor after they win. That is not the case for national Emmy Award nominees and winners who are given much coverage in secondary and tertiary sources in relation to the award over time. With 20 regions and 60 award categories, there are 1800 regional Emmy Award recipients every year. It's a relatively common award. Lastly, we have zero independent significant secondary and tertiary sources for this person. As such, there is not a strong argument to keep this article.4meter4 (talk) 13:42, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]
    Susan Peters was admitted to the Silver Circle (a society, not an award) in 2014. The AfD occurred in 2007, and per WP:CRYSTAL the editors did not keep based on some future expectations. Her page was kept based on the significance and notability that her regional Emmys gave her. WP:OTHERSTUFF states "If you reference such a past debate, and it is clearly a very similar case to the current debate, this can be a strong argument that should not be discounted because of a misconception that this section is a blanket ban on ever referencing other articles or deletion debates." I'm not cherry-picking Susan Peters, but I am sticking a [citation needed] tag on your claim that there's a "long standing precedent" that regional Emmys aren't notable. BBQboffin (talk) 17:18, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • It is misleading to say that the Sports Illustrated articles are only tangentially related. While they discuss people involved with the company, they do so often in the sense of "This is my backstory and how it led to the creation of PCW Ultra" or "This is how other things I have done in the business are reflected in PCW Ultra". As I said above, they discuss the formation, philosophy, structure, and direction of PCW Ultra. And, of course, it doesn't matter whether the promotion title is in a headline or in the first paragraph. If there are three stories on a page, they are weighed on their own merits and relevance to a notability discussion, not on their placement. GaryColemanFan (talk) 22:21, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:POTENTIAL is an essay expressing an opinion, and is not policy. It has no authority nor relevance at AFD. GNG and CORPDEPTH are enforceable policies which are authoritative when determining AFD outcomes. . 4meter4 (talk) 01:40, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
That's pretty condescending to direct at someone who has been around for years longer than you. Believe it or not, I am quite familiar with basic Wikipedia policies like WP:V and WP:N, so there is no need for your pretentious wikilinking. WP:INDEPENDENT says that the information should come from news reports. It says that commentary about a subject and a decision about whether it is worth covering should be made through editorial oversight from outside the subject (in this case, outside the organization). Therefore, Sports Illustrated, which has no affiliation with PCW Ultra, deciding that PCW Ultra is worthy of multiple reports demonstrates the notability of PCW Ultra. In other words, PCW Ultra writing about itself on its website or issuing a press release won't demonstrate notability, but a well-known source saying, "Hey, there's interesting stuff going on in PCW. Let's find out about it and discuss the creation and direction of the company" certainly does. Perhaps WP:POTENTIAL is an essay, but the same idea is also stated within WP:NEXIST, which states in bold: "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article". It has been shown that the company has significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources, which is exactly what is required to establish notability. There is nothing more to discuss. If you feel the need to keep talking, don't tag me. I know where the discussion is, but if you just want to shout about your misinterpretation of guidelines and policies, then we're done here.

Cagematch doesn't work for notability. Why there is bold letters in the titles and the events? The event history section can be improve. It's just a section with event + wrestlers who appeared.

    WP:NBASIC. I found a few more articles, but they seem to be either direct copies of the Army press statement (ref #11) or very passing along the lines of those in the first block. Given that they wouldn't establish notability in any case, I didn't check for reliability.

Thankyou for your note Scope Creep. Overall I disagree with the assessment of the source reliability and the assessment in the tables, but Mztourist and I have extremely, extremely, bad blood because of his complete unwillingness to incorporate North Vietnamese sources into Vietnam War articles (and a long and bitter debate, over, all things, the Defense Attache Office of the US Embassy Saigon), so I am not in a position to have this debate objectively. Honestly I am also too busy with other things - I cannot patrol, reference, fix, all military unit and formation related articles across the entire site.
However, to the point: the Bangladeshi Armed Forces' baseline language is actually English, and the BAF/BA site should be taken as reliable for simple biographical facts. That shouldn't be at issue.
WP:CONTEXTMATTERS
says that 'each source must be carefully weighed to judge whether it is reliable for the statement being made in the Wikipedia article and is an appropriate source for that content.' The official biography of the DSCSC commandant *must* be a reliable source -- or we have to start deleting literally *hundreds* of US military personnel articles based on U.S. Department of Defense official biographies. The fact that Salehin commanded 17th Infantry Division and is the commandant of DSCSC is basic vanilla biographical facts; nobody is likely to challenge that based upon the fact that it came from an official site.
Why are US military websites deemed reliable and Bangladeshi military websites somehow deemed unreliable? That's the core of this question. Otherwise we could start deleting US military biographies wholesale.
Kind regards to all; I regret having to mention and reawaken my bad blood with Mztourist, but it does bear on my trying to debate this issue, on this page. Buckshot06 (talk) 14:05, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Slim's death was international news and is still an ongoing event. He was notable, despite what wikijannies believe.

  • Keep It's not right to call two shootings in two different decades "one event"; his previous shooting got covered in-depth by a high quality source Los Angeles Times [37]; this is the best quality source in his area. A unknown person would not get this. A UK/international tabloid; Evening Standard covered it too. [38]. The Fader (which is a good source for modern hip-hop) covers him before any of these shootings. [39] or [40]. Stereogum; a big internet music source covers him [41]; in 2014 - long before the two different shootings. Hard to sort through the amount of bad sources, but there's heaps of stuff on him that pre-date his death and probably more out there. [42]. Calling two shootings in different decades "oneevent" is already a stretch but this is atleast over 7 years of coverage (although bare). He just makes it and the way of his death pushes him over the barrier and because of the previous slight coverage - not completely a ONEEVENT case. GuzzyG (talk) 13:25, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Of the six sources you listed, only this one was not trivial. The rest were news reports of his shooting, or paragraph-long mentions of him. Magnolia677 (talk) 16:31, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Which is meant to counter the claim of "All of the sources cited are news reports about his death"; there is coverage prior to his death, which may be argued as minor, but combined with the coverage of his death (and prior shooting); combine to create a overall package of just passes the line notability. There's an example set here with Halyna Hutchins; "slain rappers" may be bottom-of-the-barrel to some people, but we have established precedence on this site that some minor previous coverage combined with a highly reported on death counts and that this would create an exception in how we treat this subject compared with Hutchins. Is there a policy guideline for why we should treat two careers different? Or do we say that murdered rappers are common, so we should not follow other examples of this same thing? Minor previous career with SOME previous coverage, combined with a higher profile death have nearly always resulted in an article for the subject. I see no difference on why this doesn't apply here other than the assumption that being a rapper makes this common, so we should not go by established (Hutchins) precedent. GuzzyG (talk) 09:52, 21 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think you're interpreting this "one event" thing literally to mean one event. In other words, a non-notable rapper being shot is a non-notable event, but a non-notable rapper being shot again a few years later means... 1+1= ...hey, he's notable now! It doesn't work that way.

  • FEI There are two quite separate places in South Australia that could potentially be referred to as "Belvidere". There is:
  1. Hundred of Belvidere, to the north of Adelaide, in the Light Regional Council LGA
  2. Belvidere, to the south of Adelaide, in the Alexandrina Council LGA
  • I cannot find any contemporaneous reference to Hundred of Belvidere which does not use the prefixes of "Hundred of". But, there is some reasonable evidence that it was referred to historically as just "Belvidere". See for example here and here. And, there is some evidence that just "Belvidere" is used to refer to places and buildings and facilites in Hundred of Belvidere, for example see Belvidere Anglican Church
  • There is also this page, Belvidere, South Australia (disambiguation), which redirects to Belvidere, South Australia
  • There is also this page, Belvidere
  • Because of the non trivial historical use of "Belvidere" to refer to Hundred of Belvidere, I am inclined to think that the disambiguation page should remain but it has only two entries:
Belvidere, South Australia
Belvidere is the name of two localities in South Australia.
  • Belvidere, South Australia (Alexandrina)
    , in the Alexandrina Council local government area
  • Historically, Hundred of Belvidere, cadastral division in Light Regional Council local government area

  • Delete - Did my due diligence. I can't find multiple reliable secondary sources that cover the subject in a significant way. This article features her and her business partner but the article is about the business, not specifically Umuhoza. Perhaps in the future! Missvain (talk) 23:03, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional borderline G11 eligible article on a non notable rapper who doesn’t meet any criterion from

WP:MUSICBIO and in general sorely lack in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of him thus a major GNG fail as well. Celestina007 (talk) 17:11, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply

Article shouldn't be deleted as Slimka meets the second notability requirement, he had an album on the Swiss Hitparade (main musics sales chart in Swizterland) in the top 50 (twice.) https://hitparade.ch/song/Slimka-feat.-Makala-&-Varnish-La-Piscine/Dynastie-1830849 Kamikaze0617 (talk) 13:06, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment — Pardon me, I think overall the fundamental problem is failure to understand this portion of
    WP:THREE, just two that discuses the subject of our discussion with in-depth significant coverage I’d be more than satisfied because a google before literally shows me nothing cogent. Celestina007 (talk) 18:25, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply

Fails

WP:ORG; I can't find any significant coverage or other indication of notability of this school. Unsourced. (Previously kept in the era when high schools were presumed to be inherently notable, more recently included in a trainwreck). Lennart97 (talk) 15:34, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete. I found this[57] article that mentions the school, but it’s only a passing mention in a source of unknown reliability. Other than that, there are the usual list sites [58], social pages [59], and of course Wikipedia forks. Interestingly, the user who created the page only has one edit, which is to this page.

    • The school hit by the earthquake in Nepal is a different school with the same name, as the school under consideration here is in India :) Lennart97 (talk) 12:47, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
