  • Delete Searches of the usual Google types, including by Bengali name, failed to identify significant coverage in independent sources. --Worldbruce (talk) 22:18, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As a global view, this discussion may be affected by an English language bias. Perhaps the broader reliable sources are in Bangladeshi. A bilingual editor should be consulted before this article is deleted.--Eastview2018 (talk) 12:45, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's reasonable to wonder if there is significant coverage in non-English sources. The language spoken there is Bengali (also known locally as Bangla). This discussion has been advertised for two weeks to WikiProject Bangladesh, where most participants, including myself, have some knowledge of the language. As I said in my !vote, I searched for independent significant coverage in Bengali and didn't find any. Even a non-speaker such as yourself can search for "শহীদ বীর-উত্তম লে. আনোয়ার গার্লস কলেজ" and evaluate the results using translation tools. The article needn't be kept to do that. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:21, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The deletion rationale fails to outline a policy reason for deletion:
WP:ANYBIO and I see that the subject passes 1 and 2 easily. 1. The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor ✅, or has been nominated for such an award several times; 2. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field ✅ Lightburst (talk) 16:57, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

A unit award does not satisfy #1 of ANYBIO which is for individual awards. He was one of a group that made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field, so #2 of ANYBIO isn't satisfied either.

  • Selective Merge into Tuskegee Airmen. The nominator's analysis of the sources is correct, of course, and shows that the subject isn't covered in depth in reliable secondary sources. I think the one sentence about Fuller facing racism from a bigoted hotel manager is a good example that could be incorporated into the Tuskegee Airmen section about racism. But there's nothing else keepable in any form. Reyk YO! 19:13, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - fails to get enough coverage in independent reliable sources. The CAF is by its own description "a 501 (c) 3 Texas non-profit organization dedicated to flying and restoring World War II aircraft," and while well-intentioned seems rather dubious for historical information - it's declared specialty is basically acting as a hobbyists club. Some of the websites ain't worth much (Aviation Online looks rather amateurish, and WW2 multimedia datatbase looks like a passion project of a guy who has befriended some history professors but hasn't actually gotten them to write for him), and the sporadic single mentions in things like the CS Monitor or the inclusion of his name in a caption in the Getty Images database hardly count for anything. The book on LaGrange actually has a fair blurb on him, but the Legendary Locals of Edgecombe and Nash Counties, North Carolina book (also Arcadia Publishing) basically says the same about him but less. I think for the purposes of notability we can only count Arcadia books as one source of notability in instances where they are repeating their own info; I have a lot of experience with this series (own some, they like to do historical series on various localities in the US) and they do have a tendency to mirror information when there is crossover in the subject matter of each book (such as when they do one book on a county and another on a major town within that county). -Indy beetle (talk) 05:13, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment why is a non-admin (RandomCanadian) pontificating and relisting a contested/no consensus AfD? The article has evolved and information about this Airman's role was updated. However, a non-administrator making an administrative decision like this is controversial and therefore not-allowed on the project. Lightburst (talk) 22:52, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Lightburst, if your only complaint is that I'm not an admin; then that is irrelevant, since admins do not have any special status as far as closing or relisting discussion goes. See "
    Closures (or relistings) will rarely be changed by either the closing editor or a closure review: 2. if the complaint is that the closer is not an admin.". This warrants a relist; since there is no clear consensus and not all options have been fully explored. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 23:06, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

The general rule is if it is controversial - leave it to an admin. You are an editor and you are not elected to preside over any contested decisions - especially when you extended your comments acting as if you are

FWIW, your interpretation of that is fundamentally at odds with
WP:NOBIGDEAL (the mere fact of "being an admin" does not grant anyone additional prestige or authority in matters which do not require admin tools, such as relisting or closing an AfD when the result is not "delete") and usual practice (i.e. not being an admin does not restrict anybody to SNOW closes - there are plenty of examples in AfD logs of discussions which are controversial to some extant closed by non-admins; and here I didn't even close it, I just relisted, since this was a few days already beyond the point which it should have been relisted or closed, nobody had bothered to do it, and there was no clear outcome).

darkness Read it again please. It is not the article it was when nominated. I hope you take another look - I and others have spent much time updating the article with RS. The person has significance.

I have looked at the article...not less than an hour ago in fact. I don't agree that it's improved significantly, but that's not due to a lack of work and effort on your part (and others). It's because there simply isn't much to work with. If there was, we wouldn't need to rely on CAF at all...yet it still lingers in the article. And I still think it's better to get to these articles before they reach AfD...which is why I keep posting the CCI list link and have worked some of those articles myself. Intothatdarkness 01:43, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
And I just corrected misattributed information in the article lede...which was part of the original article as created by the banned CCI individual. THIS is why it's better to hit these articles as part of the CCI cleanup as opposed to now. You have to check pretty much every existing source in addition to adding new ones (if they exist).

  • Keep - Finally having time to look at this article, I believe the subject meets
    WP:GNG, with sigcov in the Cooper book and the Christian Science Monitor article (both cited), in addition to other scattered mentions. Contrary to the nom, the CSM article looks like significant coverage to me, and it appears that editorial oversight and selective quoting were applied (i.e. it's not "just an interview" and should be treated as a secondary source). Suriname0 (talk) 16:50, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • For any discussion readers, I want to explicitly affirm that I still find the sources sufficient to meet
    WP:SIGCOV is the most ambiguous policy on Wikipedia, and absent firmer policy guidance we're forced to interpret by our own standards, which is why I lean on AfD precedent. If the precedent for sourcing standards are higher for soldiers specifically than for other article subjects, as is true for e.g. corporations, I would hope to see that reflected in a notability guideline somewhere, but I'd be happy to be informed by someone more familiar with soldier-related articles. It's an open secret that vastly different standards apply to articles depending on topic area, so to some degree I do want to defer to soldier-specific norms if they exist. My point is that if this were a bio of a living person, the existing sourcing would generally be sufficient to keep the article.) Regarding content overlap, I think it's generally a good thing when we see similar content appear in multiple reliable sources; I don't see any indication that one sources draws exclusively from the other, so I conclude the sources are independent of each other.

Comment: deleting things to favor your desire for deletion is poor form. I see you also deleted a photo of Willie Fuller with Lena Horne. The photo is referenced and I have reinstated it in the article.

The photo was legitimately deleted because its copyright status is unclear. Indy beetle deleted it, you reinstated it, I deleted it, you reinstated it, that's edit-warring. There is clear consensus that it should not be there until its copyright status is resolved. I have now nominated it for deletion. Find a Grave is not a Reliable Source. Adding photos of unclear copyright status is the poor form here. Mztourist (talk) 16:54, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict)I have asked you allow others to participate here without refuting every keep argument. Deleting a reference which includes a photo of the actual grave marker of fuller seems exteme, but ok - the information can be verified elsewhere. Deleting a public domain publicity photo also seems extreme. My offer on your talk page stands. This is a consensus based encyclopedia and all depends on who shows up. My fear is that they will be hesitant to participate in what has become a tendentious debate - each keep ivote has a refutation - it is a bit much. I acknowledge my over-participation as well. Lightburst (talk) 17:40, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Lightburst, you are lying about the the copyright status of a photo, that's the height of intellectual dishonesty here and could expose us to copyright vio claims. Neither the LaGrange book nor the HuffPost article identify it as a US Gov photo, and yet you repeatedly claim it is. It may very well be, but that is not certain. It was also incredibly misleading of you to originally label that photo with the note "There is not commercial interest in this photo" when it was published in a book by a publishing company (Arcadia) that basically makes all of its money on books of photo collections and when it was the centrepiece of a HuffPost article. If you find a reliable source which indicates its origins as PD then I will happily drop my efforts here. -Indy beetle (talk) 00:46, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, Lightburst you are asserting without any evidence that the photo is in the public domain. Its clear that you uploaded it and are trying to keep it in order to inflate this poorly referenced page and claim that just because he appeared in a photo with someone famous he's notable. If you want the photo to stay then it is your responsibility to prove that it is in the public domain. Mztourist (talk) 02:59, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Public Domain- do a reverse google search. Why do you suppose the military took photos of stars with military? To sell them? There are three of you and your desire to erase this article is about the most incredible tendentious behavior I have seen on the project, since the

And what does your "reverse google search" show? It shows that the photo appears on various websites, but it does not in any way confirm that it is in the public domain. You keep stating without any evidence that the military took it, well PROVEIT, because unless you can show it was taken by the US Government or has otherwise been released from copyright it is not public domain. Delighted that you're improving other notable Tuskegee Airmen pages that are infected with the creator's copyright abuse, but you should not be creating more CCIs by adding photos such as this.

If you're implying I'm imagining sources, I'd suggest you take a step back. I've already had to correct at least three instances of imagination in this article (all related to inaccurate use of sources). And let's ask the difficult question: would Fuller be getting an article if he wasn't inheriting notability from his unit? Without that cache, would the sources be considered reliable and sufficient? I tend to think he wouldn't based on source evaluation. Can anyone demonstrate that the former Confederate Air Force site is reliable? I've found too many errors in their articles to believe they are. What RS there is all stems from his unit affiliation. Maybe someone could find something in his career with the Boy Scouts to bolster his notability (I did a quick search and didn't find anything, but it could be out there). But if the only claim to notability rests with his military career...it just isn't there once you take the unit away. Intothatdarkness 02:36, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Okay, well, forget about all those sources for a minute: I have found some new good ones. As with the other Tuskegee AfD, a very half-assed newspaper search brought me no less than eight usable references, which on their own seem to support nearly all of the article's content. I've added them, incorporated information into the article, and copyedited it some as well. I think that this renders irrelevant most of the previous kerfluffu over CAF Rise Above (CRA) and Find-A-Grave (which I will not abbreviate). I do not understand how arguments over the merits of sourcing can rage for weeks without anyone having done this. I'll ping previous participants who expressed concerns about sourcing quality to have another look: @]

I'm confused by the suggestion that an article citing sources for its claims is "ref overkill", as this seems to conflict directly with
WP:V. The statements made by an article should be supported by references -- there is really no two ways about it. His status as a flight instructor is mentioned in the third reference here (I don't have access to the print sources that were used to write the article before I edited it, so I can't cite them about whether he did so while in the military). jp×g 08:18, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

Ref overkill means that multiple refs are given to support the same claim eg. 2nd para of lede with 6 refs, 2nd para of body with 5 refs, 1st sentence of 3rd para of body with 4 refs. The Miami Herald obit says that he was a flying instructor after the war, but the lede states that "He was the only black flight instructor until December 1944" with the unreliable CAF as the only reference for this.

  • "Not great" sourcing would seem to indicate a lack of individual notability. Once again, if you take away unit membership you have a rather average pilot with a rather average and short career. I've also seen no evidence of notability from his time with with Boy Scouts. If there was, that might raise him above the bar in my view. But even the laudatory obits don't say much about it. Intothatdarkness 17:17, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • You admit that the sourcing is nothing out of the ordinary, but you 'don't care' and base your keep on a speculation that this might not have been the case in some unimaginable alternate scenario. This is of course no argument for keeping, but it's the most honest one yet, since it's the only one to grapple with the arguments brought against the current referencing, instead of ignoring/dismissing them altogether. ]

The result was no consensus. I find the list of newspaper sources unconvincing since the coverage in each is trivial (like a caption identifying Lawson in a group photo) and the sum of several zeros is still zero. However, there is more merit in the paragraph from the Charles Francis book. It is debatable how much weight this should be given, but the majority of the participants here have considered it sufficient to be a basis for non-trivial coverage.

BASIC states "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." if you actually look at the sources it is clear that those requirements are not met.

  • Keep. Frankly,
    WP:ROUTINE are often invoked in contexts where they make little sense. It could be said, for example, that sources pertaining to Franklin Pierce are simple routine run-of-the-mill coverage from newspapers and books that report on every President of the United States. It might be true, even -- but it would be irrelevant to notability. Like the concurrent nomination of Willie H. Fuller, there isn't a really cogent argument against the best sources presented (i.e. the ones given earlier in this discussion). Surely, some of the sources are not so good, and surely the article can be rewritten to avoid them. I am not seeing a real issue with that. jp×g 00:13, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Comment With regards to Suriname's source, which seems to be the sole reason everyone is voting keep, this is the extent of the coverage it offers about the subject's career as an Airman: Lawson was sent overseas with the first group of pilots of the 99th. In combat he distinguished himself as one of the most aggressive and daring pilots. That's it: his unit number and some rhetorical flair. The other sources that have been made available to the moment are as follows.
  • CAF, website with user-submitted content, unreliable
  • A tiny newspaper entry with a passing mention of his name among others, reporting their enrollment as trainees: trivial coverage
  • A museum database, with only a portrait, dates of birth and death, and unit number: trivial coverage
  • Congress resolution awarding medal to the airmen: primary source, no actual coverage, fails 'not inherited'
  • Aviation Safety Network database entry of the airplane in which Lawson died: no coverage at all
  • Aircraft-themed website, used only for that digression on footnote A and does not mention the subject at all
  • 'Liberty Lady Book' website: coverage amounts to the same as Suriname's source, adding that he died in an air crash
  • Dryden 2005 ref, apparently a first-hand account of a colleague of his: most of the subject's mentions are passing, usually just outlining his presence in some random event or recollection – run-of-the-mill and superficial coverage

It's not too inaccurate to say that the coverage so far is quite unsatisfactory. The length of the 'Military career' section is kind of a dead giveaway already.

For the record, I agree with the thrust of this comment. I haven't been following this discussion closely, but I voted "Weak" Keep based on a simple source I found in a few minutes of searching. Other Keep voters would be well-served to identify additional WP:SIGCOV in the many book sources that may discuss Lawson, or to bring the academic mentions of Lawson's actions during the war into this discussion so that those can be discussed substantively. (To be clear, I DO think the two-sentence "rhetorical" flair constitutes significant coverage, but it's certainly not enough to write an article around; we need the rest of the passing mentions in other sources for that. All the unit affiliation and congressional medal stuff is a red herring imo, and doesn't really influence my consideration of whether Lawson meets
WP:GNG, which I think they [just barely] do.) Suriname0 (talk) 01:32, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Comment I concur with Avilich. Like many of these articles there is an over-reliance on non-RS sources (CAF being one), inherited notability based on unit affiliation, and what often amount to namechecks with some rhetoric thrown in (the Francis source, which hasn't even been added to the article as of the time of this post). The American Air Museum source sounds impressive until (as I pointed out before) you dig into it and discover it's based on user-submitted content (including elements ported directly from Wikipedia). This is a problem with many of these articles, not just this one. Strident defenses and poorly-chosen comparisons (found in another AfD for Tuskegee Airmen) don't change the fact that the sourcing for these articles is incredibly weak in many cases and often circular. Intothatdarkness 00:10, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Sadly, Avilich's analysis is on the money, most of the info about this guy is sourced to websites of dubious reliability, with wikifunctions or otherwise relying on usersubmitted content. I have no idea what the "Lillian Lawson Obituary" actually refers to, since there is no provided weblink or even a name and date of a newspaper edition in which it might have been published. The substance of the Francis book mention is that "Lawson was sent overseas with the first group of pilots of the 99th". The bulk of the sources (and arguments for keep) here seem to lay on the fact that he belonged to a group of 922 people and that the group was important. The Lady Liberty Book and site are
    WP:SELFPUBLISHed (therefore not reliable): The author's Linked-in page says that Beaver's Spur Publishing is "A single member Limited Liability Company formed by author Pat DiGeorge to publish her book LIBERTY LADY: A True Story of Love and Espionage in WWII Sweden." -Indy beetle (talk) 06:26, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

I have managed to come up with a couple newspaper references about Lawson. They include significant coverage of him, his career, his family, and the events described in the article.

I think a couple more sources along with evidence it has been cited in reliable sources (eg. academic papers) would go a long way. FWIW the article dates to March 2002 it is ancient nearing the Big Bang. -- GreenC 15:39, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article describes a twin skyscraper project. The taller tower is a vision, and was never completed, and the shorter tower is completed as shown in the article Ritz-Carlton Jakarta.

This article, previously named New Thanh Hoa Airport, was tagged for deletion as a blatant hoax. The only source for the airport no longer existed. It wasn't clear to me that it was a hoax, but it also wasn't clear to me that it exists or, even if it does, whether it meets

WP:GNG. The sources I found for its existence were all travel websites, which I chose not to use to support its existence because even they were confusing. If I understand properly, big if, there is a military airport called Tho Xuan Airport, and Thanh Hoa Airport was at one time planned to be a civilian addition serving just Vietnam.

    WP:GNG per Astig; although I will note that terrarelicta.com, albumoftheyear.org, and auralaggravation.com are all unreliable sources as some are self published blogs and others are on websites where anyone can post a review and are therefore potentially not independent/reliable. However, the reviews in scenepointblank.com, laut.de, and theaquarian.com provided by Astig are all respectable sources with editorial oversight and those are independent reviews of quality.

Hi. I disagree with the nomination for deletion of the Ebstar page. According to the wikipedia notability criteria, this page qualifies as notable because Ebstar has one charted song, I have a crush on you in five local music radio 'top 100' charts, including ZiFM, SkyzMetro, PowerFM, Radio Zimbabwe and Khulumani FM. These radio charts are announced weekly. There is however no media coverage ie. official chart placements like the Billboard. Ebstar is also placed 311th on the Skiomusic international community charts[1] [2]. Skiomusic is an independent music producers platform with over half a million users. Among all, the artist has a significant amount of streams. all these are good counts of notability.

i however understand that there might be not much media coverage with some i'm not familiar of. I hope this article can be saved and someone add more info too. But thats how it is in Zimbabwe. Take a look at our popular artists, Soul Jah love's wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soul_Jah_Love ... they don't have much coverage like USA artists.— Preceding unsigned comment added by EMT2001 (talkcontribs) 14:19, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. This is heavily a discussion as to whether it's a valid split/fork, with principal arguments focusing on aspects such as the degree of duplication, uniqueness (such as chronological order), detail and so on.

In any case, there was a strong consensus for retention.

As numerous individuals had their Keep grounds either wanting, or necessitating, a rename over the current redirect "History of the 20th century", I'll re-name to that. However, it wasn't unanimous, and so if anyone wants to start an actual discussion at

Talk:History of the 20th century
then that will of course be perfectly valid.

If being the first player for a Gibraltarian club to do x thing is enough for an article then I'm happy to stand down but I've always been under the impression that GNG or an SNG would still need to be met in this sort of case. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 07:22, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I'll be honest I was always of the impression that scoring in a top tier UEFA competition was a qualifying factor, with the Group Stage of the Conference League counting as that. I've seen players from Irish clubs who have not turned pro get pages after scoring in the Europa League group stages, for example. But if that's not the case then fair enough.

1. Sources such as the referenced NATO website, NSA publications and Books are not business announcements.

2. What part sounds like an advertisement? Despite this Verity Systems company having many products, only two products that have been referenced very directly and clearly are mentioned. How about you remove the bit which you feel sounds like an advertisement, or point it out for removal?

3. Businesses that operate in the security sector are not usually seeking too much public attention. Finding information about such companies is difficult; they do not appear in newspapers, television, radio, or other publicity avenues as much as you would like. There is no contention about the notability of Verity Systems; given its size, popularity of products, and the agencies using its products. I, therefore, feel that the best course of action is that we make this page about the company better by improving it and its referencing, and that Wikipedia does not delete the page LtRisen (talk) 09:54, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Detailed criteria for a promotional tone can vary, but here is my guideline. Each paragraph that mentions something is "global", "around the world", "worldwide", "innovation", or "solutions" should be removed. Those terms provide no information about the subject, only serve to promote it. Then there is not much left. So even if the case might be made that the company is notable, this article is clearly not it. At best, keep onw or two of the most reliable sources and redo all the text. Also find it odd to say "Pacerville USA" since it is such a small town in the hills. At least Placerville, California would give context. W Nowicki (talk) 15:16, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Agree that there's no unambiguous definition of "Hispanic/Latin", so we'd either have to ask every candidate for this list what their ethnic self-designation is, or we'd be into the realm of opinion. RomanSpa (talk) 19:22, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the other users, and I'm not exactly sure why we'd need to single out nominees of a particular race, there doesn't seem to be any relevance to the rest of the article in that respect.

  • Delete as an unnecessary, illogical and unworkable cross-categorisation. See here for deletion precedent and my arguments against this list in that discussion. I don't say this lightly but this is one of the only WP pages that I actually think verges on racist by the placement of national flags against people's names based on their ethnicity (not citizenship/residency). One example: Edward James Olmos is an American (I don't believe he holds any other citizenship), was born in America, has lived in America his whole life and had parents who were residents and/or citizens of America with Mexican heritage. Yet this page puts a Mexican flag next to Olmos' name! Can you imagine something similar being done in a list for an American of European decent?

  • Question @Dronebogus can we add List of Hispanic Academy Award winners and nominees to this nomination as it is very similar and probably worse. Vladimir.copic (talk) 21:57, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep. This book provides a list of Latin Emmy winners and gives statistics [51]. There has been much public discussion and media attention over systemic racial bias of acting awards. As such, this is a notable cross-categorization which is born out by media articles like these [52], [53], [54], [55], [56], [57]. I disagree that the content couldn't be sourced, and I further contend that deleting this would contribute to systemic racial bias within wikipedia.4meter4 (talk) 03:34, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Excellent point. As a white person myself, I don't think it would be my place to try to delete an article like this. Bkatcher (talk) 04:23, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • There’s a difference between an article about systemic racial bias in awards as an overall topic and a list that just arbitrarily labels people “latin/hispanic” and expects readers to extract something meaningful from it. Let’s focus on creating better content about this topic rather than clinging to haphazard nonsense like this list.
The problem with using lists to cover systemic bias in awards is that they can’t “see the forest for the trees”— it’s not about individual names or some concrete number or quota, but rather the overall ratio of white nominees/winners/reviewers/etc. to nonwhite ones in awards vs. all artists. Dronebogus (talk) 05:30, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I actually think the issue is that list is quite racist and reduces living people to their ethnic background based on the whims of editors. See my above comment about Edward James Olmos. It includes Penelope Cruz and Antonio Banderas for some reason too who, as far as I am aware, are European. I agree that there has been much written about racial bias at the Oscars but why not write about it. A list does not help cover this issue. Vladimir.copic (talk) 08:25, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That’s ridiculous logic. The media specifically pays attention to Latinx nominations at the Emmys because of racial bias. Tracking Latinx winners and nominees happens in media and publications on entertainment; often by Latinx journalists. Deleting such lists is a form of erasure. There’s lots of sources on this topic and clearly either a competent
WP:BEFORE wasn’t done or people are allowing their own prejudice to inform their vote.4meter4 (talk) 10:25, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply
]
The parameters of the list are just too random and are ripe for WP:V issues. In what sense is Edward James Olmos Mexican? In what sense is Penelope Cruz Latinx? What are the limits of Latin American heritage? Should Anthony Bourdain be included as he had a great great etc grandfather who lived in Paraguay? Basically editors are just deciding who is latinx enough to be included. If this was a list of Latin Americans it would be different as this easier to verify. Also this is not erasure as there people should still be listed on the universal nominees/winners page. Vladimir.copic (talk) 10:51, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sigh. Erasure is a term used in psychology, sociology, and interdisciplinary academic fields like African American studies, womens studies, ethnography, queer studies, gender studies, etc. where race or gender or sexuality is removed from the discussion on purpose which prevents the impact of race or gender or sexuality from being examined. This is viewed as a form of white or male or heteronormative dominance (depending on whether its gender or race or sexuality being removed) which is exerted over minorities by removing them from view or preventing their experience and stories from being told from their point of view or by preventing analysis of how race/gender/sexuality can impact institutions and events. The argument you made above is a textbook example of an erasure argument where discussing race and making it a focus is deemed racist. Such views are termed erasure because essentially it shuts down any conversation, discussion, analysis, viewpoints, etc. of how race impacts the lives of people of that race and the way race can impact institutions and societal relationships. In short its viewed as ethically wrong in current academia to put forward that sort of argument. Lastly, the solution to your problem is to simply limit the list to subjects who have self identified as Latinx or Hispanic and have won or been nominated for an Emmy. If we don't have RS saying they are Latinx or Hispanic then we don't include them. Entries without refs proving that can simply be removed. 4meter4 (talk) 19:19, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • That’s all well and good but surely there’s a better way to discuss the intersection of Latinx issues, racism, and the Emmys than a big list that just says “such-and-such won award so-and-so whenever and also he was of Cuban ancestry”. And I respect detailed, intelligent reasoning but try to keep your comments relatively short and to-the-point. Dronebogus (talk) 00:11, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I agree, there is no way to differentiate this from a real article or hoax. The subject could have historical notability, but the article has been around for years and should be sourced by now. If an enthusiastic editor wants to take over and source it, I'd probably change my position. I'd be okay with draft or userfy if someone wants to work on it for later.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:11, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral: Was a real person. Alternatively named Edward H. Mosley. Not too many sources from newspapers.com, but the creating editor had to have gotten this information from somewhere, implying additional sources may exist. Curbon7 (talk) 03:44, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails

WP:GNG. Cannot find much external coverage. Reference are internal and the PDF one doesn't work. Imcdc (talk) 02:13, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete I have found some regular PR coverage but nothing that would count towards
    WP:COMPANY. The coverage provided in the article also falls short (two non-independent sources and a PDF which I could not open either). Modussiccandi (talk) 19:30, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

The result was draftify. This one was a close call between "draftify" and "delete"; several redirect options were also presented, but none of them gained consensus. A few delete voters argued along the lines of

WP:TOOSOON or proposed draftifying as another option, so I hope this is an acceptable compromise. If continued coverage doesn't happen the draft can be deleted. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 10:38, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

This is an example of

WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Never mind the fact that this article should be a stub, is not written very well, and has some sourcing issues. Paul Vaurie (talk) 00:34, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

  • Do not Delete Please. This match has gone MAINSTREAM and it has an ENORMOUS significance for me & everyone because I'm from Moldova and I support Real Madrid. Everyone talked about this match, everyone posted about this. This is HISTORY. Do you really think that if this match took place in the group stage it should be automatically ignored? Wow. This match actually is one of the craziest things I've experienced in MY life. It matters so much for Moldovan people. It should NOT be ignored. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Remis.simon (talkcontribs) 08:08, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hello
WP:ILIKEIT is not a strong argument in deletion discussions. Thank you. Paul Vaurie (talk) 23:16, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

Hello. You argument does not address what the deletion proposal is saying, and stating that you are a Real Madrid supporter has no value in this discussion. Please read ]

By the way, as Stevie fae Scotland pointed out at WT:FOOTY, the title of the article should be Real Madrid CF 1–2 FC Sheriff Tiraspol. No Great Shaker (talk) 09:14, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
