Found in

CAT:NN, tagged for notability since 2011. This does not seem to be a needed list, as it duplicates content elsewhere. Arch Enemy discography
lists all of the significant releases, and the others, which all appear to be minor and obscure, are listed on the album pages. As almost none of these are notable songs, this serves no navigational purpose.

A similar AFD I was involved in awhile back, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of songs recorded by Upchurch, resulted in deletion. Searching indicates to me that only unreliable sources attempt to list all of the songs recorded by this band; this doesn't appear to meet the guidelines for stand-alone lists.

Biography of a person notable only as producer of a single-market local television newscast, not making or sourcing any strong claim to wider notability. The only real notability claim being attempted here is that the newscast received unspecified and unsourced "national and international awards for its documentaries" -- but that isn't a notability claim if you don't name the awards in question, because not every award that exists is necessarily always an instant notability clincher -- and in reality, the content is much more genealogical, devoting far more time to naming his parents, grandparents, wife and children than it does to saying anything notability-building about his work as a producer. And for sourcing, there's one obituary in a non-notable community hyperlocal, one article in the local newspaper about the newscast, one very short blurb on the website of the local historical society, and a book that's being used to source information about a house his grandparents once lived in rather than any content about Marv. This is not enough sourcing to get him over

Then let's edit it to get it up to the standard you seek. The problem is, being a 1970's children's TV show, there are few remaining references online. Yet, this was referenced in Wikipedia on

Yorkshire TV
for some years prior to me making an entry about it.

I feel this strikes at how one should construct Wikipedia articles. Is the point not that we collaboratively and incrementally construct reliable materials? Or are you advocating an article be pristine in its first incarnation, or else it must be deleted? I'd find it more useful if so-called "editors" took the approach of fleshing out an article or giving pointers as to what they wish to see included, instead of running to the delete button as their default option. Davidmwilliams (talk) 12:29, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]


Oppose deletion: More detail has been added, including additional references, and importantly, clearing up the uncertainty in the previous text whereby the people credited changed because, it transpires, an original co-creator passed away. I hope you find this helpful. If not, then constructive guidance is certainly welcomed. Davidmwilliams (talk) 12:46, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The only search result of any use refers to it in passing as a "road station"; I still have no idea what that means, but it suggests a single facility rather than a town.

Not sure if this is the same thing, but "Sylvan Dale" is referred to as a planned resort in a 1902 brief mention in a Ukiah newspaper. Found another passing mention of Sylvandale as resort, as well as references to a saloon and a barn dance. Some passing mentions to a Sylvandale School, but also a couple statements that an attempt to get a school district in Sylvandale was rejected. There seems to be a modern subdivision (possibly in the Ukiah area) that is named Sylvandale but is unrelated to this historic site. Hog Farm Talk 19:21, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Srinivasan is notable enough to be the subject of a Wikipedia article in my view. The problem is with the article as it is currently written. It reads like a laundry list of his accomplishments. No attempt has been made to explain his thoughts and ideas or place these thoughts and ideas in any kind of context. Srinivasan is an associate of Peter Thiel and an advocate of Dark Enlightenment ideas. Several of these folks are the subject of Wikipedia articles — Curtis Yarvin, Nick Land, the aforementioned Thiel. Srinivasan is also an important figure in crypto-currency circles.

  • Delete This individual seems to be only "Twitter-famous." Many of the citations are to the tech-press and not serious pieces, but possibly just a way for this individual to obtain publicity for their companies. The entire "crypto" space is filled with these individuals. There are references which point to this individual being marginal and side-player to notable events, but nothing where they themselves are at the center, outside of the hot-house of the tech-sector, which is notable for flash-in-the-pan publicity. Perhaps notability would be established if they produced something original rather than contribute to the stream of crypto-chatter.

* Speedy Delete - I don't see much here besides the technical fact of being a CTO: a motion to keep mentions political views, but I cannot find such perspectives of the Subject published anywhere reputable. Another mentions him sparring with news media, but this seems to be only an active twitter presence and no feature besides his own tweeting. As a CTO, there's no particular notability. As a very active twitter user, Wikipedia would be profiling an unlimited number of people as 'notable' if that were the bar. As for 1729 - what is it? why is it also notable? is it part of his work as a CTO? The answers to these questions are unclear to me, and answering them would mean writing up original research into the biography of a living person.

* Speedy Delete

I'll try to summarize my prior comments.

- Doesn't seem to compare to the figures listed here as notable CTOs: here:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chief_technology_officer#Notable_CTOs

- is ascribed views by other Wikipedians but doesn't seem to have authored anything about them featured in any reputable publication (would require original research to establish his views, or their cultural salience)

- main written output seems to be an active twitter that is highly focused on the crypto space, which all seems to have come *after* his main work as a CTO for Coinbase

- Is not even featured by Coinbase as notable

- current projects like 1729 appear to have little traction or impact

- was once a CTO but thousands of others are also presently CTOs. Will every former CTO be notable?

- looks to have gotten into fights with people on twitter: this doesn't seem important

- not much left to say on this page besides the founding and sale of his company. Looks to be a successful one, but I don't think this alone establishes particular notability.

- Again, he is Twitter famous. But that's not a real metric, as that is easy to manipulate in a non-organic manner. Twitter is not irrelevant, but it's importance is conditional on other concrete contributions.

- As noted by others he isn't even listed as CTO on Coinbase page. CTO at a firm in a new industry isn't notable. If being Silicon Valley rich is notable, there should be way more people on Wikipedia.

- A lot of reference to a 2013 article. Is that it outside of Twitter? Not everyone who wrote an article in the WSJ in 2013 is notable. If that piece did not spawn an ecosystem of countervailing ideas then what's the importance?

- The whole economy of firms like Coinbase seems pretty fragile right now. This individual isn't in a well-established industry, but an influencer who is good at manipulating Twitter. The crypto-space may exhibit the features of being a bubble, and this person's reputation may be the same.

  • Keep, I guess. Seems rather notable, even being considered for public office for some reason, and it looks like there's a lot of sources there (granted, some look to be primary or dreaded press releases). But the article should be edited or something to remove the promotional tone; right now it just reads like a list of "hey, he did this company". This sockpuppet stuff really sours this AfD, but I was going to vote for Keep anyways. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AdoTang (talkcontribs)

  • Comment: I don't think it really matters whether the site's owner created the article, as it's received significant attention from unaffiliated editors since that time. The issue is whether it's notable. I glanced around for signs of notability without finding anything I thought I could use, but I'm far from an expert in the field of determining notability and my search wasn't exhaustive. I do have considerable reservations about concluding a lack of notability, however. This site is one of the premier sources for classical texts—probably used more than any other by Wikipedians working on Roman topics, and perhaps a good percentage of Greek topics as well. It's reasonably well-designed and clearly a good deal of scholarly work went into putting it together, and in organizing and annotating many of the texts.
That makes it pretty important for modern classical scholarship; not all classical scholars can afford a large library or access to the texts concerned, so sites like this and Perseus, along with on-line epigraphic sources are invaluable. That's not something that lends itself to news coverage, however, and scholars who use the site for convenience may only be citing to the texts it contains rather than the site, since the original source carries scholarly weight that the site does not. So my opinion as someone who's used it quite often over the years is that the article ought to be considered notable, although I don't feel able to prove that at this time. I'll bring this discussion to the attention of my colleagues at CGR: maybe some of them can help establish notability. P Aculeius (talk) 11:11, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • It certainly is a key resource (when it's not down) like
    Perseus Project, but it hasn't been publicised in the same way (probably because it's a private project). I don't know where you'd find the sort of sources that wiki needs. Furius (talk) 12:21, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • No vote either way: I did indeed write the seed of this article, when I was new to Wickedpedia (and WP, a site slightly younger than mine, was new itself), being impelled, almost told, to do so by a WP contributor who had been around for a while. I have no idea whether the site is noteworthy and don't much care one way or the other, but have occasionally edited the page from an IP in this range 24.136.4.218 (variable depending on my server, apparently), usually not bothering to log in, just to keep info current as long as the page was up. WP itself links about 7000 times to it, but then Wickedpedia hardly makes anything noteworthy or otherwise… 24.136.11.43 (talk) 14:11, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • As a further parenthesis, it happens that Lacus has been down for about a week currently, the longest outage ever; COVID-related problems made it hard to find out what was going on, but finally this morning I thought I learned that the University of Chicago is pulling the plug on it (and apparently on Perseus at PhiloLogic as well). I have a couple of offers to host the site, and it looked like I would have to be moving it soon. If it moves I'll put in a notice to WP's robots to change the root address to whatever the new one is, of course. 24.136.11.43 (talk) 14:18, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The UoC is not in fact pulling the plug on LacusCurtius: the outage was due to an electrical glitch in a COVID-unoccupied building on campus, and the length of the outage was due to a one-week delay by some peon in replying to an urgent request for permission to enter the building to ascertain and fix the problem. The e‑mail was finally answered, permission granted, and this morning it took all of ten minutes to restore the server. ▸ LacusCurtius therefore continues to be online as before, notices of its demise (incl. by me!) were premature. I've edited my previous note. 24.136.11.43 (talk) 18:42, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Would normally have recommended Draftify because it meets the criteria and just needs a lot of work, but the author of the article (and apparently according to others above, the author of the website) hasn't been active on Wikipedia since 2010, and others don't see to be keen to work on the article so it's unlikely that a draftify would be worth it.

    There's nothing controversial or contentious in the page and there's no reason to believe anything on the page is untrue, so I don't think there being original reasearch is reason to destroy the entire page in the hope someone recreates it some day. If it meets the critera and there's no pressing reason for it to be deleted my view is that it should just be left alone. Uses x (talkcontribs) 03:59, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The Arizona Republic coverage is clearly locally-themed coverage, which is why they're covering the ASU group.

Comment: This is my first article and I was trying to expand on what looks like a project to document the major research centers on the ASU campus. I tried to improve on what
Center for Meteorite Studies did. I felt as though I had far more non-asu sources in my article, which I gathered was the preferred from my reading of Wikipedia guideline pages, if not I found a number of ASU stories and State Press articles documenting the lab's work, the same sources as the Biodesign Institute article used, just thought the sources I was using would be better, please advise. Could anyone explain why the other articles were accepted so I could understand for the future? Just trying to learn my way around the editing and writing process. Thank you User:LabRat55

  • Weak delete While it seems that the aggregate of what people from this lab have achieved should satisfy notability requirements, I must agree that we are lacking the independent coverage to write about the lab as a whole. Sometimes you get these cases where notability seems intuitive, but the third-party material to write an article just isn't there; I think we've got that here. Sucks but no barrier to reviving this if such material surfaces. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 19:17, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Revision made to article I'm not voting to delete, but I've blanked out the "notable partners" part because not only was the reference to Luminosity Lab's own website, but the website said "current and former partners" whereas the Wiki article said "partners" without revealing that most (or all) of them might not even be partners anymore.

  • Keep per GNG. I've worked on dozens of articles about restaurants in Portland, and promoted approximately 25 of them to Good article status, so I have a sense of how much coverage is required for a decent Portland restaurant entry. I've reviewed current + unused external sourcing and believe there's sufficient secondary coverage to meet notability. Also, the passing "all local sources" is a bit dismissive when The Oregonian is the largest newspaper in Oregon and the second largest in the Pacific Northwest by circulation. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:02, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe they're referring to its inclusion on the list of "16 worthy ice cream candidates that opened across the country over the past year or so".

Related guideline,

WP:ORGCRIT
:

Individual sources must be evaluated separately and independently of each other and meet the four criteria below to determine if a source qualifies towards establishing notability.

  1. Contain
    significant coverage
    addressing the subject of the article directly and in depth.
  2. Be completely
    independent
    of the article subject.
  3. Meet the standard for being a
    reliable
    source.
  4. Be a
    secondary source
    , primary and tertiary sources do not count towards establishing notability.

An individual source must meet all of these criteria to be counted towards establishing notability; each source needs to be significant, independent, reliable, and secondary. In addition, there must also be multiple such sources to establish notability. If the suitability of a source is in doubt, it is better to exercise caution and exclude the source for the purposes of establishing notability.

Related guideline,

WP:AUD
:

Evidence of significant coverage by international or national, or at least regional, media is a strong indication of notability. On the other hand, attention solely from local media, or media of limited interest and circulation, is not an indication of notability; at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary.

You said above that the coverage was routine or transactional. Do you really consider coverage like this feature story in a major metropolitan newspaper to be "routine"? Cbl62 (talk) 21:17, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Contextually, yes. He only received that coverage because he's a local player who wanted to play for his local team, even though he never actually took the field for them. It's mere draft coverage. We'll probably have to agree to disagree on this. SportingFlyer T·C 11:21, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It is a four column feature story focused on him. That is SIGCOV plain and simple and published by a major metropolitan daily. I fear that the dark side has taken hold of you ;) Cbl62 (talk) 20:28, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I have thought further about this one and end up agreeing in part with JoelleJay's reasoned arguments below. For someone who received such extensive coverage in multiple outlets surrounding his draft, signing, and trade, I was surprised I could not find SIGCOV concerning Wagner's college career at BYU (a Division I FBS team). On digging deeper, I found that he tallied only 37 tackles in 28 games as a varsity player at BYU (see here) -- a very unremarkable output for a linebacker. Accordingly, we have an unremarkable college career and a pro career that never happened due to injury. I still believe that
WP:BLP1E is apposite to an athlete whose playing career spanned four years. However, I do conclude that it is a reasoned exercise of editorial judgment for us to decide that a stand-alone biographical article is not warranted given the complete lack of significant on-field accomplishments at both the college and pro levels.

  • Delete. Per Bearcat, robust local coverage is hardly a solid indicator of notability, particularly when it's confined to proseified draft buzz and game reports. Otherwise we'd have articles on every high school football coach and almost every college athlete. JoelleJay (talk) 21:13, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The slippery slope argument ("we'd have articles on ... almost every college athlete") is way off base. Very very few college athletes (< 0.1%) receive the depth of coverage that has been brought forward here. This is a clear GNG pass with multi-column feature stories like this and this. I think the "delete" voting is simply reflective of an anti-sports bias where some seek to hold athletes to a much higher standard. Cbl62 (talk) 23:57, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's correctly identifying the fact that two articles talking about the fact he signed with a professional team, in spite of the fact he never appeared for that professional team, or for any professional team, are
WP:ROUTINE coverage (especially considering he had a hometown connection to that team) and don't make him a notable athlete. SportingFlyer T·C 00:12, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
This is a gross misapplication of
WP:ROUTINE. Routine coverage includes passing mentions in game coverage or brief reports of injuries, signings. Multi-column feature stories focused on Wagner are the antithesis of "routine" coverage. Cbl62 (talk) 00:30, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
No, it's really not. ROUTINE applies to WP:NOTNEWS - people who would receive coverage even just because they get in a local news cycle, not because they're actually notable. It's the same principle we use for people running for office who aren't otherwise notable. Otherwise everyone who received two multi-column feature stories in their local paper would be wiki-notable. I ask once again - how can someone be a notable professional football player if they never even played professional football? SportingFlyer T·C 18:14, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Respectfully, your interpretation of
WP:ROUTINE to include multi-column feature stories is inconsistent with the plain language of that provision. It has long been applied to exclude passing mentions in game coverage, brief injury announcements, and statistical databases, but never has it been extended to cover multi-column feature stories. Further, the coverage here is not limited to "feel good" stories in a local hometown paper. The coverage instead consists of feature story coverage in major metropolitan newspapers. Cbl62 (talk) 18:27, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
You can have routine multi-column feature stories. Further, he signed with Calgary, got a couple stories about how a local player returned to sign for Calgary, and then never played for Calgary. Just because the Calgary paper happens to be from a major city doesn't make this any less routine. SportingFlyer T·C 18:31, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but we just disagree. I'm not aware of any precedent whatsoever for your view that multi-column feature stories in major metropolitan dailies can be disregarded per ]
WP:NOTNEWS. Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events. and For example, routine news reporting of announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia. Just because "routine" hasn't been "extended" doesn't mean it can't apply here, as Wagner has no enduring notability as he was only locally covered and never actually played. We will have to agree to disagree on this one. SportingFlyer T·C 18:42, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Comment. I think coverage related to his drafting/signing ought to be interpreted as BLP1E. It's the same underlying conceit: an event that generates in-depth coverage of a person for a brief period but isn't notable by itself and doesn't lead to sustained coverage of the person outside of that event isn't enough to warrant a biography. Draft buzz is extensive; while most of the time it correctly predicts future SIGCOV, when a signing quietly falls through like this did we should take into consideration why we have BLP1E. Wagner has remained a low-profile individual for 9 years, coverage was exclusive to his drafting/signing, and the coverage was entirely local-interest.

I actually had to sleep on this one.
On the one hand, this guy's position was absolutely notable, and that notability absolutely extends to him as a result. As far as
WP:BIO
goes, that's a clear and unambiguous answer.
On the other hand, half the existing sources at his article failed
verification
, and no more sources (other than from deprecated outlets like the Daily Mail) were available.
This is quite a conundrum, where by
another (significant coverage in independent, reliable sources), he fails. But at the end of the day, practicality must rule out. Without the source coverage provided by him meeting GNG, we simply don't have the ability to write a proper article. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 13:50, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply

MjolnirPants I see the point but notability is not temporary, either he is notable or not. If he was notable before the CP conviction, he is still notable now. Worst case we cannot mention the CP conviction since no RS exist. --hroest 14:37, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hannes Röst, If you saw my point, you'd not have responded this way. For that matter, I'm fairly sure that if you'd so much as read past the word "Delete", you'd not have responded this way.
    We lack the ability to write an article, because we lack the sources to do so. That was the point.
    Objections of "but he's still notable" are not only explicitly acknowledged in my second sentence, but are addressed and shown lacking in my concluding sentence. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 14:51, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • MjolnirPants, I'm guessing Hannes and I are approaching this from the NPROF C7 perspective, rather than from GNG. Academic bios are rarely fleshed out with biographical details the way regular bios are since they don't need to demonstrate direct, in-depth SIGCOV. So while I would agree with you in any other case that technically meeting notability doesn't demand an article if we can't find much material on someone's personal life (although try telling that to NSPORT AfD participants...), for an academic just discussing their important research and professional pedigree is considered sufficient. JoelleJay (talk) 15:21, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • JoelleJay, I suggest you go over the sources and try to work out what we can say from that. this will get you started, though I have to warn you: only the first 26 results have him in the byline. Of the 6 papers he's written with over 100 cites (in astrophysics, where important papers regularly accumulate well over a thousand citations), he's the lead author of only half, and none of the leads on the other half have articles of their own.
        The fact is, the only reason this guy was notable was because of a position he held.
        If we had the sources to write an article about him, I'd be all for keeping it. I'd even support the mixed-use of primary sources (court documents) and those deprecated sources to add to the article about his conviction. But we don't even have any indication he's ever done any important research, and barely enough to summarize his pedigree. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 15:57, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • this will get you started
          Thanks but I am very familiar with his citation profile and those of astrophysicists in general, and obviously agree with your assessment of his C1 notability. However, the coverage Hannes found and what I turned up myself demonstrate he is frequently quoted in conventional media as an academic expert in a particular area. Since academic bios are usually woefully sparse on biographical details due to NPROF being the governing notability guideline, what we have for him from the one SIGCOV article and his limited research footprint, coupled with his providing expert opinion in dozens (hundreds?) of internationally-recognized RS articles (The Guardian, Smithsonian Magazine, BBC, The Telegraph, The Independent, Financial Times, National Geographic, New Scientist) spanning at least 16 years is actually far more than the standard academic page. JoelleJay (talk) 16:26, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
          • Yes, this is what I also see here: compared to other academics, there is far more literature about him and if you look at
            WP:NPROF and common practice in academic articles. --hroest 16:30, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
            ]
          • JoelleJay, I found those as well. There's one or two where he's quoted extensively, which is decent attestation of notability, but still ignores my point: He could write thousands of volumes about astrophysics and we'd still not know a single thing more about him. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 16:34, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
            • MjolnirPants, yep, and that's the unfortunate thing about NPROF articles. I don't like it either, but that's what Wikipedia has decided to do for academics. He's got way more mainstream coverage than most tenured professors so that's at least something. JoelleJay (talk) 18:25, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
              • JoelleJay, I would like to point out that Wikipedia may very well decide that the sky is orange, but that will not change the fact that the sky is actually blue. Similarly, we're right back where I started with my initial comment: I actually agree with you that this guy meets the minimum requirements for notability, but we're nonetheless incapable of writing an article about him, because he lacks sufficient coverage. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 20:27, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I mean, this is the case for like 90% of our articles on academics. The fact that he has one SIGCOV article on him puts him waaaay ahead of the majority of NPROF-based bios. What you are arguing would essentially require GNG sourcing, which is explicitly bypassed for academics because they're unlikely to have the IRS SIGCOV needed to build a biography in any other discipline. I do think C7 is one of the looser criteria and is more prone to elevating people who aren't actually academically notable, but that's an issue to be resolved at NPROF, not at AfDs. JoelleJay (talk) 00:42, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Once again, you're missing my point. If we don't have the sourcing to write about him, we can't write an article about him, all we could do is list a few facts on a page. If there are academics out there who have articles that are just lists of a few facts, or brief descriptions of their specialties, then they, too, should be deleted. We're supposed to be an encyclopedia; not an academic directory. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 16:22, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The Delete arguments above seem to make zero sense? They keep going on and on about a conviction, which is irrelevant, since that's not the source of his notability. Either he is notable or not, period. And there are a lot of sources discussing and involving him, rather high quality ones too. Here's some examples:
The closer should dismiss any votes made above that don't make an actual deletion argument. SilverserenC 21:22, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It is not irrelevant that we apparently cannot get the article to comply with
WP:NPOV. That takes precedence over GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:41, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
Your issue seems to be that you can't find a good source to cover a crime the subject has committed. Not being able to cover that isn't a violation of NPOV and in no way overcomes GNG and notability. SilverserenC 21:50, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In any normal biography a career-ending criminal case (at an age too young for retirement) and conviction would be a significant part of the life story. There is no real controversy whether it happened. We are merely prevented from reporting on it because of our strict sourcing rules. But not reporting on it creates a significant gap in the story that misinforms people who come here looking for information for whatever reason. When an article would misinform because it is unbalanced, that unbalance must be fixed, per
WP:NPOV (which, let me remind you, is policy, unlike GNG which is merely a guideline). There may be multiple ways of fixing the unbalance but in this case the simplest would seem to be deletion. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:56, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
So your argument is that if a notable person ever commits a major crime that ends their career (or gets them put in jail for life), but that event isn't covered by RS, then we should delete their article despite them being notable and having plenty of RS coverage prior to that point? Is that an official thing we should add to notability guidelines on how subjects can lose notability by becoming criminals? SilverserenC 21:59, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@]
we in some way have an implicit agreement that the sources we have seen are reliable for that fact, no? No, we do not. What we have is an agreement that non-notable (or perhaps "semi-notable") individuals are more likely to have their names dragged through the mud by unreliable tabloids than legitimately notable public figures whose crimes will be reported in reliable news outlets. If you think this person is notable and the accounts given in these tabloids are reliable for the information they provide on this affair, why are The Guardian and The Times not covering it, in your opinion? Hijiri 88 (やや) 23:28, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Wait, what are you even arguing here? That the incident in question didn't happen since we have no actual reliable sources covering it? Because i'm fine with agreeing with that. If all you have is the Sun and the Daily Mail covering something and it's absent from literally everything else, we probably should question its inherent factual nature. SilverserenC 23:37, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is the only compelling argument for deletion -- that by excluding unsourceable but major negative material we are presenting a non-neutral POV. But to me it seems kind of ... hypocritical? to on the one hand say we trust the reporting by these sources enough to believe it would go against policy not to include the content they report, but at the same time assert they are too unreliable to trust for us to cite them. I do think it's valid to consider what we'd do if the subject was unambiguously notable -- and whether NPROF C7 and/or GNG need to be reevaluated if they're catching people who aren't significant enough for the media to report their major transgressions. JoelleJay (talk) 06:16, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • If the subject were unambiguously GNG-notable, I imagine that the less-sketchy news sources would have covered the criminal case. Instead, I'm guessing after deciding that the borderline notability of the case makes such coverage scandal-mongering, they just suddenly stopped mentioning him at all, not unlike what would happen here if we deleted the article. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:40, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • David Eppstein, yeah, that's what I think happened too. However, I also feel he meets C7 (rather than GNG), and given academics don't generally receive SIGCOV I do wonder if we even should expect such coverage to appear for NPROF-notable people. And if you don't agree he meets C7 (I don't see it invoked often by itself so haven't developed a great feel for consensus), if you want to expound on that I'm always open to adjusting my priors. JoelleJay (talk) 20:52, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Not being able to [simultaneously comply with two of our core content policies] in no way overcomes GNG and [other] notability [guidelines] Is... is this a joke? I think such a statement, if unrecanted, may be grounds for a block, as it implies either a failure to understand how Wikipedia works or a willingness to publicly pretend not to. Hijiri 88 (やや) 23:28, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I am disagreeing with it being a violation of NPOV in the first place. Not including some event in someone's life, especially when it doesn't have anything to do with their notability AND isn't covered by reliable sources anyways, isn't a violation of NPOV. Our articles are only meant to cover what is included in reliable sources anyways. SilverserenC 23:35, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Our articles are only meant to cover what is included in reliable sources anyways That assumes that topics on which we have articles will be covered in all the relevant detail in reliable sources. Hijiri 88 (やや) 02:51, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
And if the articles are notable from what is covered by reliable sources, then we included what is covered therein. Notability and NPOV are not reliable on what the reliable sources don't cover. Who would even get to determine such a thing if we did include that? That would be OR entirely if no reliable sources are covering it. SilverserenC 02:55, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, for the love of... has this turned into one of those "removing content based on discussion between Wikipedians constitutes OR" non-discussions? Did you seriously just invoke OR in relation to the argument several editors have used for deleting this page? The first paragraph of Wikipedia:No original research explains why this is wrong. Discussion between Wikipedians as to whether and why reliable sources have not mentioned this person since early 2018, and deciding to remove potentially outdated coverage based on the conclusion of said discussion, is the opposite of OR. You have been on Wikipedia for more than ten years, so your needing to have this explained to you is quite unbecoming. Hijiri 88 (やや) 04:11, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Removing specific content in an article on a notable subject is not the same as deleting an article on a notable subject entirely. We can have discussions on not including specific content in an article via things like
WP:DUE as well. But that is not an argument to make on an entire article. How would you use DUE to remove an entire article on an acknowledged notable topic? That's not how it's meant to be used. That's for inside article content, not the entirety of the article. That's the difference here between what you're arguing and what this discussion is actually about doing. And, honestly, your personal attacks are getting tiring. SilverserenC 04:25, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
an acknowledged notable topic Please show me where either myself or any of the other delete !voters has "acknowledged" that this topic "is notable"? The fact is that both GNG and all the other subject-specific notability guidelines are just that: guidelines. Maybe in 2009 or 2018 the notability of this subject would have been assumed pending evidence to the contrary, but now we are using our editorial discretion to judge whether the subject can be reasonably assumed to meet our notability standards now that he has apparently been found guilty of a crime and the only sources that are reporting on it are those that deliberately search out such stories to the delight of their voyeuristic readership. You said above that the closer should dismiss those of us who are making well-thought-out and reasoned arguments based on the circumstances and our policies and guidelines, but it seems to be you who are the one ignoring our points in favour of some bizarre strawman argument and an insistence that GNG is always clear-cut and always constitutes a bright line meaning that, if we would have assumed notability at some point in the past, we cannot use our judgement based on more recent developments to decide whether said assumption would have been wrong. Hijiri 88 (やや) 04:50, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Per Mjolnir's vote up above, "On the one hand, this guy's position was absolutely notable, and that notability absolutely extends to him as a result. As far as WP:BIO goes, that's a clear and unambiguous answer.".
And now you're just saying we should dismiss and ignore all notability discussion, including the GNG itself, to rule on something unrelated. And the entirety of the unrelated thing is that reliable sources have decided to not write anything about a crime the subject committed. And, because they didn't write about said crime, that means we shouldn't have an article on the person. Maybe instead we should be arguing that, without reliable sources backing up the claim, that the Sun and Daily Mail are just lying and the event didn't happen? We certainly have no reliable sources to show that it happened, which is kind of the point. Why should we even acknowledge it happened if we have no evidence it did? SilverserenC 05:13, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The article was created (via AfC) in 2015 and the page views show it bumbling along nicely - median daily pageviews 5, the occasional day of 80 or 100, and a short-lived peak (max about 270) in 2018. His notability was not challenged until now. It is being suggested that we delete the article because of something which has only been reported in deprecated sources. If the Mail and Sun aren't good enough for us to use as
    WP:RS, then information from them, which no other newspaper has apparently found worthy of comment, should not be being used to delete an article. Yes it's a horrible crime, but the article should survive without mention of it if we have no reliable source. He's written a couple of popular science books, which I've added to the article. There are probably many, many other biographees in Wikipedia, both BLPs and historic, who have ghastly skeletons in their cupboards, irrelevant to their notability, which no interested editor has come across and added to their article.

  • Keep No credible reason is being offered as to why these specific reports, especially given the lack of any contradictory information, cannot be assumed to be inaccurate. Celebrity tittle tattle, it is not. The man was obviously considered important enough for a biography before his conviction, and no credible reason is being offered as to why that was a mistake, or why deletion after the fact would be a sensible way to deal with the paradox that has arisen. At worst, Wikipedia can indeed host an incomplete biography, and it would be, by definition, neutral, if the reason for the ommission of this conviction was that you didn't believe that information to be accurate or significant. That is obviously ridiculous, as paradoxes tend to be, so mentioning it on the assumption it is accurate, is the sensible course of action. Not least since no serious claim can be made that Wikipedia is able to do more harm to this man that isn't already being done by the existence of those reports. Should he ever succeed in a Right To Be Forgotten action, then obviously things could be reconsidered.

  • Comment Someone above suggested that Kukula's associates may have deleted mentions of him from their websites etc after the court case. I had a feeling this whole discussion reminded me of something and remembered overnight: Winston Smith in Nineteen Eighty-Four, whose job was to rewrite history to remove all mention of "unpersons". Should Wikipedia be going down that route? PamD 07:11, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Royal Observatory removed Marek's employee profile, their press release announcing his appointment, and funnily enough, even the job advert. But it is worth noting they haven't taken down pages like this, so if they were trying to 1984 him, they didn't do a very good job. And of course, the missing pages were in the Wayback Machine, and they included some of the details mentioned above by Mr Pants regarding what he would like to see in a Wikipedia biography, so I have added them. The rest would seem to he trivia, for example, who really cares where he was born? Is it relevant to his astronomy? It doesn't appear to have prevented him travelling or getting good jobs, unlike a serious conviction. The main question remains, what is Wikipedia going to do about the paradox wherein the only important things that apparently can't be added to this biography, are the date he left his most noted career role, and the reason why. The most absurd way to deal with that, would indeed be for Wikipedia to 1984 him. Mr Happy Shoes (talk) 19:01, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I recently semi-protected this article due to a request at RfPP about a dispute. The article was nominated for deletion in 2018 and reached no consensus - the deletion around the same time on French Wikipedia was accompanied by legal threats. On checking the content, I've found it is difficult to verify and I strongly doubt the subject is notable. I can find the occasional interview in trade press such as https://www.finchannel.com/world/georgia/51646-ep-lobbyist-advises-against-long-term-contract-with-gazprom and it is possible to verify that he has received some minor French and Belgian honours (see the reference in the article and https://vlex.be/vid/ordres-arr-tes-nommes-promus-officier-37546332) and was registered as a lobbyist for ACIFR, a Francophone business group [19] but I cannot verify that he was awarded the French Ordre du Merité as he says on his CV and he does not meet either

WP:GNG. I cannot find any of his work on Google Scholar, his books have not been reviewed or made a significant impact, and he hasn't held a named chair. He is quoted sometimes in the press, but there isn't significant coverage of him. There is some coverage in the Belgian French-language daily newspaper Sud Presse [20] of him receiving a sentence, with the statement that some of his claimed titles are false ("faux titres"), which further draws any self-published information into question; an SPA on the talk page says that's a gossip site though I don't know how reliable it is myself. p.s.

"Bruno Bernard is a former senior researcher for the UMP party and senior political officer for the British embassy in Paris", so he's certainly a writer. But that's not notability - and I also note the BLP is unlikely to pass anyone's idea of a balanced, full biography of a notable figure.

Strong delete. Basically a bit of self-advertisement for a technique virtually unknown and unapplied in either systems biology or (still less) molecular biology. No proper reference citations. The authors mentioned (apart from Denis Noble, who, I suspect, had nothing to do with this) are also virtually unknown. No significant presence of Extrapolation based molecular systems biology at Web of Science. The web site SystemsBioInsight.com seems not to exist any more (if it ever did).

  • Strong delete. The concept of using statistical algorithms to guess an organism's characteristics from just one set of its 'omics data is well established (we study genes because they tell us what the organism will do), as is integration of 'omics data by statistical algorithms. Maybe one day the concept will need a name, but it isn't currently called 'Extrapolation based molecular systems biology'. This looks like a page set up to promote a term that has not yet gained widespread (or any) acceptance. The page also has no meaningful information; it's a paragraph of technobabble unsupported by any citations, attached to what looks like a slide lifted from a powerpoint presentation, with incomplete references to primary literature, all old enough to suggest that if the term were going to become important, it would have made some headway by now.

  • Keep A violation is a type of rules infraction in basketball that is distinct from a foul as it does not count towards an individual or team's total number of fouls (for the purposes of disqualification or "fouling out" and a bonus situation. While the NBA Rules no not explicitly group these types of infractions together as in the article, the FIBA rules do (see also [29]). Other sources [30][31][32] also explicitly distinguish "fouls" and "violations." While I did consider whether it would be better to simply make a new section on Violation (e.g. Violation#Basketball) I think the coverage of the distinction between "violation" other types of infractions meets GNG and warrants an article. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 12:43, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I think this should be treated like a pseudo-DAB page, like it is now, just listing out the different types of violations. I don't know what a better solution would be, because I don't think there's a suitable place to merge the list. I guess we could even change this to 'List of violations'.‡ El cid, el campeador talk 13:23, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Going with a slim keep here as there are indeed Turkish sources referring to a 27-album career. There is also apparently an out of court settlement about the misuse of his music on the Jack Ryan films. Google translate tells us that the relevant lyrics are "That song I released the grasshopper, did not put the grass in the writing, The sheep and the lamb to the lamb, Hop up the grasshopper, Jumping the grasshopper, My dear grasshopper, Knife was the grasshopper, How much is Bitcoin and Ethereum?" which not only demonstrates how legal genius can cut across language barriers, but also why Google translate will one day start World War Three.

Article about a suburban community hyperlocal newspaper, not

WP:NMEDIA. As always, newspapers are not handed an automatic notability freebie just because their own self-published web presence offers technical verification that they exist -- the notability test is the ability to use coverage about the paper, in e.g. books or other newspapers independent of itself, to demonstrate its significance. But the sole source here is a single article published in self-same newspaper about its own history, which is obviously not an independent source for the purposes of establishing notability.

I didn't fail to BEFORE, you failed to apply the "is this source substantively about the subject, or is it just a glancing namecheck of the subject's existence in an article about something else" test. That Pierre Berton cite isn't about the Richmond Hill Liberal, for example: it just briefly mentions the paper's existence in a very short blurb whose subject was a ratepayer's association meeting in Maple. So it isn't a source that helps to establish the notability of the Richmond Hill Liberal just because a famous writer once typed the words "Richmond Hill Liberal" — the newspaper is not the subject of the source, but just has its name mentioned in a source about something else. The other Toronto Star citation is also not about the Richmond Hill Liberal — it again gets glancingly mentioned in an article whose subject is a person who happened to write a letter to the editor as a small step in the process of achieving the thing the article is actually about. And of the three Globe and Mail citations, two are obituaries of its former editors, and the third is an unsubstantive blurb which devotes exactly 11 words total to the matter of T. F. McMahon purchasing the paper while devoting several hundred words to other things — so none of them are notability builders either, because they aren't non-trivial coverage about the paper. The only footnote you've added that's contributing anything whatsoever toward GNG is the Ron Haggart "Paper Changes Tune On Interest Conflict" cite — but even just passing GNG takes a lot more than just one source of that calibre.

  • Delete the various name checks argued for above do not show the substantial level of coverage we need to meet GNG. Notability is not inherited, and just because someone who was connected with a publication gets an obituary does not show the thing itself was notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:27, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'd agree with that User:Johnpacklambert if the obituary was primarily about the person, and not the paper he edited. But the headline was literally more about the newspaper than the editor, who wasn't even named in the headline! Also, what did you think of the substantial reference to a book that I've added since anyone else commented? Nfitz (talk) 23:46, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
A glancing mention on one single page of a biography of a person who lived in the town, but had no significant personal association with the paper, is not a "substantial" reference about the paper. Again, we are not looking for sources that mention the Richmond Hill Liberal — we are looking for sources in which the Richmond Hill Liberal is the main subject.

The argument the user gave against deletion on the Turkish Wikipedia is that it was (somehow) kept on the Russian Wikipedia. With different projects having different notability guidelines, I don't see how that's a legitimate reason.

The non-Azerbaijani pages have been created around the same time, and all pages are created by, in my opinion, the same person (en, tr, az exactly same user, user from ru-wiki has only created the article). I'm sorry but I smell a paid contribution here.

Very incomplete, and what is there is sourced to an unreliable site, indianfootball.de[46]. Another site used in this article, 11v11.com, gives a list of players for India in 1993 (not specifically for this tournament, but for the year) which is very different from the one we have here[47].

So the one team we have is unreliably sourced, and the other ones are missing.

  • American sports often has difficulty determining what is and is not a rivalry because sports journalists will commonly use the word "rivals" even when a true derby doesn't exist, see for instance the discussion Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Panthers–Seahawks_rivalry_(2nd_nomination). I still don't see anything - even in the Cynthia Lewis book - that actually makes me think this rises to the level of a derby. The Fivethirtyeight and Prost Seany91 quoted only mentions a rivalry in quoting the team's coach, Bleacher Report isn't a RS but only uses the word rivalry in passing. Not taking away anything from the three big games they played against each other in the 2010s but we're far, far away from say a topic of West Brom-Wolves. SportingFlyer T·C 13:07, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Also, I've been looking through newspaper reports the day before and the day of the 2015 World Cup final. Only one sportswriter I've seen so far (Los Angeles Times) calls it a "budding rivalry" in passing. This is all ]
Notability of rivalries, especially when the two teams are not close to each other in the geographical sense, is always extremely difficult to determine. You're right that essentially the sources only discuss the actual rivalry itself in passing. I think the issue is, though, that such articles will often go "x and y are long-standing rivals, now here's a bunch of matches they played against each other..." or something along those lines. I understand the SYNTH concern. I'll see if any other participants can find any better sources to add to this discussion. I do think that this is a notable rivalry but proving it is going to be tricky. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 14:19, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Just to point out that it's up to OP/community to prove that it is not a notable rivalry for the article to be deleted, not the other way around. That's why when there's no consensus the default is to keep in AfD discussions. Seany91 (talk) 19:57, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is a personal attack. I've been going around and trying to save sports articles tagged as not notable. The fact Japan and the U.S. played three important matches against each other does not make this a "rivalry," nor is this a sexist AfD nomination. I saw this in the list, thought, "huh, that's not a rivalry," looked for sources, found only a couple which used the word "rivalry" and none in a traditional sense, and AfD'd. I've also presented an AfD evidencing we typically are too permissive about rivalry articles for American sports - we usually need some sort of evidence of a derby apart from the "the rivals played again," since the word "rivals" gets thrown around willy-nilly in American media. Please retract your statement. SportingFlyer T·C 11:32, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article is
    WP:SYNTH. It is expressing Wikipedia's opinion that there is a derby between the two sides by stitching together a number of journalistic quotes which use the word "rivalry." For instance, here are the match reports from the most recent meeting between the two sides: [48] [49] [50] [51] where this preview uses "rivals" but contextually in reference to England and Spain, not Japan. You would expect media to cover this like a rivalry if one existed. SportingFlyer T·C 18:10, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • It's not a disagreement - sources do not describe this as a true derby. The sources you provided clearly don't describe it as a true rivalry, but only mention "rivals" in passing, with the exception of the one study you've presented which doesn't appear to cite any coverage significantly describing this as a rivalry. For another AfD showing we don't keep
    WP:OR articles about two teams who have played big games against each other on rivalry grounds, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/England–Croatia football rivalry. SportingFlyer T·C 11:18, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • The entire discussion of the "rivalry" in that link is The USA will renew its long-time rivalry with Japan in the final match of the 2020 SheBelieves Cup. That's it. It's a throw-away comment. SportingFlyer T·C 20:44, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • keep sources like 538 and Bleacher Report are enough, IMO, to say we have documentation that this is a rivalry, and a notable one at that. I'm not seeing a lot about the nature of the rivalry, which makes me wonder if this is the best article to have. But it passes the GNG and I think the article as-is shows there is some potential.

  • Comment. "Harvardiana" is also a generic Latin term meaning "things relating to Harvard". The term is used in this sense at the Harvard Magazine website linked above and none of the pieces under the topic there have anything to do with this article's subjects. The reprint mentioned twice above is also probably not evidence of notability either—it's just a low-effort reprint of a public domain book from a company that churns out countless numbers of them. The only relevant source mentioned so far seems to be the first one linked by Jeepday, which does discuss the journal in a fair amount of depth. On Google Books there do seem to be additional older sources discussing the journal, perhaps enough to assert notability but I don't feel certain either way. —Nizolan (talk · c.) 14:44, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strongly leaning towards keep - A simple look at the entry list shows that this is almost certainly a notable event, although significant coverage is likely to be limited to older print sources and those sources are likely to be mostly in French or Italian. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 18:37, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep For all the reasons noted above; an F1 race contested by top-level drivers though not part of the World Championship as the Italian GP would have counted for that. Should be noted that this was the first year of the World title and at this point the non-champ races were a continuation of previous season events and would have not lacked in prestige. Needs sourcing; I have added an EL to Motor Sport (magazine)'s database but race report is harder to find. Almost certain that Denis Jenkinson would have reported on it. Eagleash (talk) 12:26, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    It's worth commenting that in the early years of the World Drivers' Championship the prestige of World Championship events wasn't particularly greater than that of non-championship events. Indeed a recent (paywalled) Autosport article made a note of how in the 1950s and 1960s many Formula Two events were considered to be of similar importance to Formula One Grands Prix. Today records of World Championship races tend to be easier to find because they fit more snugly into a simplified statistical narrative whose revisionist paradigm stems from the current perspective where Formula One is the World Championship and where top-level Grand Prix drivers rarely race outside that series. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 03:34, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I linked this to the Italian/Czech/Slovenian wikis, but there were no additional GNG-qualifying sources there. A search in English brought up nothing about this particular race apart from results. Not disputing the keep necessarily, an Italian archive search might be prudent here though. SportingFlyer T·C 13:20, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This is an early version of a Formula One event with top level drivers participating. --Whiteguru (talk) 10:34, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

still not a notable rapper, despite the multiple attempts to create an article here, same as the last AFD, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dax (rapper). YODADICAE👽 16:06, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Did you actually read the sources? They were available last time too and were insufficient and they're paid for PR pieces and interviews. This isn't what a snow close is for. YODADICAE👽 16:30, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I did. Interviews and pieces about songs and live performances of his work from independent sources ARE coverage. I'm aware paid pieces are an issue in journalism media of all topics, but please provide evidence the sources I provided were paid pieces. And don't give me that bologna that interviews from independent sources (magazines like XXL count under that field, you know) are "self-promotion". They wouldn't want to talk with the rapper if nobody cared about him. 👨x🐱 (talk) 18:59, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, they are not independent coverage and several of your sources barely say anything about Dax or are gossip rags. The standard for inclusion is not "mentioned a few times" or "been interviewed" it's significant, in depth and independent coverage. YODADICAE👽 19:09, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
With all due respect, you're the one who didn't read the sources. He is prominently covered in many of the sources I provided. These are not articles with "a few mentions". You're flat out

The sources are independent. You haven't provided evidence they're not. 👨x🐱 (talk) 19:35, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Need I introduce you to
WP:RSN, and the fact that you included this in your assessment really establishes that you didn't bother to actual look at the sources themselves for what they are: a mix of PR puffery, interviews and paid for publications or passing mentions. YODADICAE👽 19:38, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
And yes, XXL, Hiphopdx, Complex and Respect (which is blacklisted) all accept pay for publishing without disclosing it as such. https://www.fiverr.com/natprivalova/write-rap-music-press-release-or-an-article-for-news-website-submission And this is a laughably far cry from anything meaningful. YODADICAE👽 19:42, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(1) I never cited Respect as an example, and (2) Mind reading
WP:DNTL? Calling out when users spread misinfo is not a personal attack or an aspersion. The sources are not passing mentions; stop lying that they are. His name wouldn't be in the title of most of these sources if they only mentioned the rapper in passing. The link you provided as evidence only gives a Fiverr link that doesn't tell me anything about these specific sources; any evidence that this rapper specifically has used the Fiverr page for these specific sources I provided? You know that just because these publications do PR articles for some articles doesn't mean they do it for all of them. "Half of these sources" are unreliable? Since when was Billboard, LA Weekly, Earmilk, Broadway World, Rolling Out, Telegram.com, The Source, HipHopDX, and Revolt (which makes up 95% of the examples) found to be unreliable sources? I will admit that I have seen HotNewHipHop questioned and am not familiar with ghgossip and Side Door, but those are only a tiny minority of the sources I provided. Also, the heck do you mean the Genius.com source "is a laughably far cry from anything meaningful"? It's a notable Youtuber personality who has admitted to having an opinion on a song by this rapper, plus it's by a staff writer of the source. 👨x🐱 (talk) 19:52, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
I literally just linked you to why most of these aren't reliable and as far as Broadway World goes, no I don't see how a republished press release is an RS, nor listicles of "omg look what ur fave rapstar loves!", those lack the depth required. I'm not gonna keep going back and forth with you. Vote or don't, but your feelings are not policy and the fact of hte matter is that most of this is complete paid for puffery and unreliable. Other than the Billboard source, nothing here is meaningful, in depth or reliable and this has already been discussed in a previous AFD. YODADICAE👽 20:04, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"your feelings are not policy" Well, so much for not casting aspersions. None of what I said is based on feelings. You know most of the sources I provided weren't "a republished press release" or "omg look what ur fave rapstar loves!" lists. Main features about the rapper in LA Weekly and XXL, him being declared part of a Canadian rap scene by Ottawa Scene and a song being recognized by a Youtube personality is
WP:SIGCOV. Plus I just explained to you why that link wasn't good enough. 👨x🐱 (talk) 20:11, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • For clarity, The Source is on my personal unreliable list, as evidenced by the fact that you can see from the fiverr page, as an example, that this is a paid for piece and yet, inexplicably lacks any such indication and doesn't even indicate whether it's a staffer or contributor, so I'm not sure why we should be expected to believe this is a top tier RS when they don't even disclose what is genuine journalism and paid for cruft. It brings into question their integrity. YODADICAE👽 21:06, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I think Knauss meets the criteria of creating a thing (or things) that have received independent coverage (weblog book tours, Romantimatic app) and is regarded as an important figure within his field. I tried to add citations and information to that effect. Early web metadata is terrible which means it's hard to nail down the specifics of his work for Que Publishing but his work writing for MacWorld and early Atari publications is easier to note and track down.

Comment. I'm still not seeing any SIGCOV here. The newspaper hits are all trivial mentions in meet results, and the "short article about her marriage" appears to be a self-submitted wedding announcement (this is the entirety: "Celebrated Saturday by Karin Horn Evensen and Femmo Breuwer, Holland. Adr. for the day: Odd Fellow, Gjovik.") of the type standard in local newspapers. There were a couple newspapers running that word-for-word, and a couple running this version: "Fernmo Brouwer, traveler, Gjovik, and telephone assistant Karin Horn Evensen, Stabekk".

This article does not source any references, also without any expansion for a while. This also includes the fact that it looks like the article is there as a definition, without informational context. Nbagoodfun (talk) 18:38, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I just renamed the article from
Server sunset to Sunset (computing), rewrote it to be more general than just servers, and added references. Note that someone had erroneously added information on the software lifecycle sense of "sunsetting" to the Sunset provision law-topic article, and I needed somewhere appropriate to move that to. I didn't see any good place to put it in the Software development process article, so the information is now in this article. Note that Sunsetting now redirects to Sunset (disambiguation) § Other uses, which includes Sunset (computing) as one of its bullets. --Dan Harkless (talk) 06:04, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply

Merge, with the more general term End-of-life product. SailingInABathTub (talk) 09:27, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The term isn't just in reference to products, though. It can be used, for instance, to refer to an internal server that is in no way productized. Indeed, it would be confusing to conflate the two ideas, since an EOL'd product is sometimes, but by no means always, the reason for the sunsetting of a server or non-product service. If merging, End-of-life product would need to be renamed and rewritten to be more general.
There may be a discussion to be had as to what constitutes a product, but all of the term's references in this article are all within the context of
product lifecycle management ... SailingInABathTub (talk) 12:32, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply

Sorry, been awhile since I've participated in one of these, and thought I was supposed to revote under the Relist line. --Dan Harkless (talk) 01:52, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as it has already been renamed. Its its own term, with multiple articles, reports, and academic pieces written about it. Search term. Uses x (talkcontribs) 23:12, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per the
    WP:HEY that's been done since nomination; it went from a four-sentence unsourced stub at a bad title... to a very beefy paragraph with seven sources that adequately explain what the concept is, at a great title. jp×g 07:10, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply

Phasael II

Despite the numbers after his name, Phasael II was not a ruler. He was a nephew of Herod the Great who never reigned. All the information we have about him is genealogical so he definitely isn’t notable. This belongs in a family tree and not in a stand alone article. Mccapra (talk) 06:00, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
