    A pundit or commentator is not inherently notable, but this person appears to be interviewed and make appearances as an expert since he was formerly an SEC lawyer, so I think that confers some notability. He's also mentioned in a few books. Ron Geffner graduated Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law and began working for the SEC in the New York branch in 1991, making $40,000 a year.

  • Keep: The news Pastor Ordination in Asha Church, published by NepalChurch.org, a news site about Christianity in Nepal is indeed an independent and reliable source providing coverage significant. The same can be said about the article on the website Poilnam and WordandDeed. Sources do not need to be entirely independent of Christianity to present independent coverage of a Christian topic.

  • Keep Come on man, it is trivial to find good, peer-reviewed publications on this topic [1][2][3][4]. What this article needs is throwing out the rubbish sources currently present, integration of some solid academic sources, and then a rewrite that gets away from the finger-wagging "PSEUDOSCIENCE!" focus; this concept is principally one of traditional knowledge preservation and post-colonial cultural integration.

  • Keep - found and added new sources. Seems to meet GNG. Pinging @GiantSnowman:, as requested above. RedPatch (talk) 22:53, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Sources are database websites (Soccerway), primary (club websites), interviews, and routine transfer news. I don't think it's enough, and I've seen many other articles deleted with similary sourcing. Nehme1499 23:00, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I feel like that's the majority of football player articles that will be written and sourced such as that though (transfer news articles that summarize their career/key match performances in articles about the match, and player interview articles). The sources in this article are not all are primary, there are multiple secondary ones, plus there are no database/soccerway sourcing in this article. Even the other Marlon Santos article, despite having played in Serie A and Ligue 1, still only has that same type of sourcing (transfer news and primary articles sourced in his article) and is written in the exact same form as this article is, as are the majority of basic football articles (basically unless a player is super elite, transfer articles will be the main articles about them, supplemented by game articles/year end team articles). My rule of thumb has always been if their transfers are covered in non-primary sources (with a decent enough amount of detail) such as [5], [6], [7], [8] then it's good. If it's primary team sites only I say noRedPatch (talk) 23:35, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree that the other Marlon's page is more or less to the same standard as this one's. However, there are many more in-depth sources online which are not being used, such as [9] and [10]. I don't see sources such as these in this article. Nehme1499 00:04, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That first one is definitely more detailed. GNG is pretty subjective anyways, so what meets it for one isn't necessarily enough for another. While there weren't really any "Outstanding" sources, I feel there were enough Okay-Good sources to meet it. It wasn't really a struggle for me to find sources to make it a decent Start article, sometimes it's a lot more difficult for me to find them. Feel there might be a more sources in Portuguese too that didn't pop up in an English google search. RedPatch (talk) 03:33, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I did a thorough analysis of the page's sources (please, see the Talk page "Proposed improvement or deletion of the page" and found that there is not even one article with in-depth coverage of the subject.The article about Fardad Fateri was created in 2013 when the standards for sources were not followed properly. I checked the last nomination for deletion (no consensus) and found out that even the creator of the page Cbryant23 agreed that the page was not notable but forgot to vote accordingly, offering to speedily delete the page. I thoroughly checked the articles’ references and didn’t find any publications that can qualify to prove notability of the executive. Per WP’ requirement we need 3 in-depth articles about Fardad Fateri but there is not even one that can meet the requirement. The article is also poorly referenced and doesn’t cite the sources properly. Onetimememorial (talk) 18:25, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

For everyone's convenience, here is the link the analysis I did:

--Onetimememorial (talk) 23:16, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - I'm torn on this one. There's a long history of apparent WP:COI with the editors on this article trying to whitewash criticism, and deleting this article would serve in removing justifiably negative coverage of Fateri - especially since this article is the top Google search result for his name. However, I am also not finding any significant reliably sourced coverage of Fateri. There are a couple that mention his name and a couple sentences about his work background, but they're trivial mentions. If this article is deleted, I would at the very least recommend a lot of scrutiny on International_Education_Corporation and his other affiliated organizations to ensure they're not also suffering from COI. PDXBart (talk) 19:19, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
PDXBart, I believe that notability of the page for Fardad Fateri and his involvement with International_Education_Corporation are two different issues and both have to be resolved in separate. If Fardad Fateri is found not notable to have a separate page on Wikipedia, then some of the information can be merged with other relevant pages including International_Education_Corporation.--Onetimememorial (talk) 17:49, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Onetimememorial, AFD is not a vote, but instead a discussion, and the closer reads the statements and closes based on their strengths. Cbryant23 commented in the previous discussion; it is irrelevant whether they specifically summarized their position with a keyword such as "keep". It's also not their
    WP:AGF that they now have second thoughts about the subject itself, but one might reasonbly say that "the article they wrote" isn't really this one. DMacks (talk) 20:28, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply
    ]
I agree that this is not a voting but rather opinions sharing. I meant that the creator of the page reacted weird by offering to speedily delete the page after PROD, which speaks about their lack of knowledge about Wikipedia basic rules. However, AFD process requires me to notify the original creator of the page regardless of their level of contribution — and so I did. --Onetimememorial (talk) 17:50, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am just not seeing evidence of notability, though there's likely COI creation and ongoing COI edits adding every bare mention of this guy, so I think everything that's available out there about him is actually already cited to in the article. Google brings up nothing. I did a source assessment, which is at Talk:Todd Mason#Notability. There's a single instance of sigcov in local business press but otherwise just nothing outside of stuff generated from press releases, bare mentions, routine business coverage of his companies rather than him, affiliated, interviews, etc., and most of it is in the same iffy media. Valereee (talk) 18:12, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Agreed on lack of reliable sources. Mr. Mason needs to use a personal website and an IMDB page if he wants to list his career details extensively. His LinkedIn and other social media is extremely self promoting (no value judgement) and this article is in line with the rest of his internet presence. The majority of this (unsourced) content was added by a single user that hasn't touched any other articles, and I would guess is Mr. Mason himself or someone he hired. I'm not alone in this thought judging by the WP:DISCLOSE banner already on the article. PDXBart (talk) 18:30, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What's the point of a list of 1? Including statistics (well, the 1 person is top and bottom of the list), and an extra list of the living examples (still the same 1 person). Was redirected, but apparently this was not acceptable either. I don't care if it gets redirected (somewhat unlikely search term) or deleted, but as a separate article it is completely meaningless.

Vanakkam, @B Jambulingam I am not convinced that this is a notable temple. This seems to be a run of the mill temple that are found in every street in Tamil Nadu, cities. There is nothing in the page or the refs that make it notable. The build and temple architecture are fairly new and there is no claim from a reliable source or ASI about the ancient history. The claims of old history are promotional and should be taken with a pinch of salt.
As claimed, this temple might be a part of the 88 temples of
Thanjavur Palace Devastanam Temples along with the refs. Based on the sources found so far, I see no reason why every minor temple in this group of temples need to be covered in a separate Wikipedia page.

There are no reliable sources online containing information or coverage of this restaurant aside from a Vox article that only trivially mentions it (two sentences) along with dozens of other closed restaurants. One of the sources for this page, an archived page from the Oregon Encyclopedia community-driven website, has a bio on Henry Thiele along with what look like notable sources. I think an article about Henry Thiele specifically, with a mention of this restaurant, would be plenty appropriate. But not this restaurant by itself.

    @Another Believer Carrying over conversation on my talk page since it's relevant here too:
    I did in fact run searches for RS for this article before nominating. The sources you've added do help, but aside from the book they all seemed WP:TRIVIAL to me. I agree that the book coverage, which I missed in my searches, could count as significant, and uncovering things like this is the point of AfD discussion. I would however suggest that if you're making good faith efforts to encourage better editing that revision notes like "yet another source; nominating editor sure didn't try hard..." might work better if following WP:NICE, WP:NEWBIES, and WP:AFDEQ. I appreciate your feedback regardless. I will leave this AfD open for consensus building that the book coverage in addition to other trivial coverage satisfies notability.
    As for slowing down, I am simply following the Wikipedia "motto and...invitation to the newcomers [to be] WP:BOLD", which also suggests more experienced editors do not "thwart the efforts of newcomers who take that invitation at face value". I am making good faith efforts to clean up articles in the area that I live. If you have further questions about my motives or more detailed constructive feedback, you're welcome to leave it on my talk page. I have not until now received feedback across my AfD nominations that they were made carelessly. PDXBart (talk) 14:50, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    I am not saying the existence of that sources makes the article pass notability.

    Oregon Encyclopedia as a reliable source. It should be regarded as one of the best sources available on Oregon history. This is a publication born of the scholars of the state historical society and one of the largest public universities in the state. from their FAQ: "The Oregon Encyclopedia does not accept unsolicited entries. The encyclopedia is an authoritative publication, which means we adhere to a scholarly editorial process." It is run more or less like an academic journal, and adheres to Wikipedia's standards for sourcing more closely than any other source cited in this article. -Pete Forsyth (talk) 21:33, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply

That a fire occurred in a nightclub does not make that fire notable. Fires, like bus accidents, occur all the time, and though tragic, they are not usually considered notable unless the death toll is unusually high or the fire occurred for unusual reasons. Neither seems to be the case here.

  • Keep, per latest edit by me. As the the author of the counterpart article on Thai Wikipedia, I have translated it to English. Many sources are available and investigations are still ongoing (plus, corruption is highly suspected by the media as well - leading to even more investigations into the incidence), of course, mostly in Thai. IMO, It is a "notable enough" incident as it had two digits deaths and was the first of its kind in the given region. Such incident is rare in Thailand and has since sparked widespread debates and talks on Thai media.

Article unjustifiably created, and evidently/likely by the subject of the article (or a direct affiliate or acquaintance), which constitutes a conflict of interest anyway – Furthermore, this is not a truly notable or significant individual, musician, or public figure. They should not have a Wikipedia entry. Nor should this person be listed under

Living people
, or any of the several other categories and articles to/on which they are linked.

As a musical act, they were never signed under any major (or independent) label or imprint, have never charted on any official record charts (0 results on Billboard for instance), and have no noteworthy (let alone legitimate) social media audience or following. It is suspected that their Verified check marks (Instagram and Facebook) were swindled, primarily due to the existence of this very Wikipedia article (and under the guise of public relevance). In addition, no trace whatsoever of their music (or any other significant work) even exists online at this point:

• In previous years, they simply posted their homemade music on their personal SoundCloud and YouTube ― to minimal plays and impressions

• They were never (and still are not) on any major streaming platforms or music services

• All their online content is removed altogether (absolutely no content is on YouTube or SoundCloud or streaming platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify, etc.) plus all their social media profiles (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat) have by now been emptied, hidden, made private, and/or abandoned for an extended time

They seemingly have transitioned all their online profiles from “Musical/recording artist” to the “Social media influencer” type. Therefore, they are indeed using their illegitimate social media Verification and misleading Wikipedia entry in hopes of attracting real followers instead of bot or purchased followers.

Finally, the article’s “sources” are not reliable and are all unknown, local, niche, and/or personal webpages directly connected to the subject (who, again, most likely authored this entry or had it authored on their own behalf). Moreover, every “source” is from fall to winter of 2016, with many of the links being dead, having expired domains, or being largely empty/devoid of any content (e.g., the subject’s very own, self-published tonibaldwin.com).

Not yet notable by

WP:LISTED
, while that should make it much more likely for a company to be notable, it doesn't guarantee it. So, while trying to replace the sea of press releases with some RS, I was surprised to find there's almost no independent, secondary coverage of the company online. Just a ton of press releases, and passing mentions in the financial press.

The article as created was pretty over-the-top marketing [21], complete with ™ symbols and gushing self-promo quotes from the CEO. This was made even worse last month by Special:Contributions/Purple_2020, whose COI was pretty obvious.

Editors User:WikiDan61, User:Canterbury Tail and I cleaned out most of the blatant marketing and lame attempts to connect the company with COVID response, but what remains is sourced only by press releases and sponsored content, and doesn't assert notability per WP:CORP or WP:GNG.

Poorly-sourced promo piece on a non-notable business. Considered draftifying, but BEFORE finds only the usual business listings, social media accounts, and a few mentions of their minor Twitter storm, hence unlikely to pass notability requirements in the foreseeable future. Fails

Sorry, but where does it say that being "Xth oldest" does not make a subject notable? With all due respect, obviously you are not from the Philippines where Tropical Hut is considered to be an institution as far as restaurants go. It's notable enough to be have been mentioned many times in Philippine literature. I've added a few instances of these to the article. -Object404 (talk) 11:44, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. Here's an analysis of the references (excluding PRIMARY sources and twitter):
    • Equire profile on the "Oldest Food Chains in the Philippines" but unfortunately is merely a very brief (4 sentences) description with no in-depth information, fails
      WP:CORPDEPTH
    • Interaksyon article is a commentary on various tweets, social media is generally not
      WP:CORPDEPTH
    • Another Interaksyon article is also commentary on social media mentions, not
      WP:RS
      and also fails CORPDEPTH
    • Manila Bulletin article is yet another commentary on social media. It provides more details but attributes those to "its profile on Jobstreet". Again, no in-depth information and fails both CORPDEPTH and possibly ORGIND.
    • The book Major Companies of the Far East and Australasia 1993/94 is a mere listing containing an adress and phone number and an activities tag of "Supermarket operators". Nothing more. Fails CORPDEPTH
    • Bloomberg profile is based on information provided by the company and is considered trivial coverage, fails CORPDEPTH and ORGIND
    • CNN "In Photos" article is inspired by the recent "nostalgia" initiated by twitter in 2022 and is a reflection on the journalists' memories and visit to one of the branches sprinkled with other people's reflections from social media. Unfortunately it is also very light-weight containing no in-depth information and fails CORPDEPTH
    • This Yahoo news article is also a commentary on the same recent wave of nostalgia and mentions the "hiring new staff" company announcment. Also fails CORPDEPTH.
    • The remaining five books referenced in the article are mere mentions (as also described in the article) and also fails CORPDEPTH
None of the references meet the criteria for establishing notability of the company, most even acknowledge that not much is known, none of the "reviews" provide more than a brief mention of the company.
I searched for other references and one that appeared to contain detailed information is available on StudyMoose (a source of "free essays" according to the website) which was written in October 2016 and predates the references above. It isn't a reliable source though. I also came across this essay/document on PDFCoffee which also appears to contain in-depth information but I am unable to find an original which would meet

Keep You made an argument for improving the article, not deleting it, since the article is for the most part a list of pages and not something that needs original research to exist.

@
NemesisAT: Thanks you for the rationale. My opinion is that there is no "List of bridges known for strikes" in any article. One needs to do original research to piece it together. Also what is the criteria to make the list? Does a bridge make the list if it is struck twice or five times? Bruxton (talk) 18:42, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply
]
Forgive me for butting in, please just tell me to leave it alone if you would rather I not contribute to the AFD due to my authorship.
The standard would be that the bridge is known specifically as a serial offender. So articles that generally mention that the bridge was struck would not be in scope. It would definitely be OR if we were trying to set a threshold for what bridges count, or trying to gather stats on how many times bridges get hit. This article[24] is a great example of what I'm talking about, where it documents the bridges notoriety and even gives examples of previous media coverage.
The point about being a composition of disparate things and not sourced from a central list is interesting, but based on articles I've reviewed this is not a common standard. See List of incidents at Walt Disney World and its companion articles. Generally its unreasonable to expect us to just copy a previous news outlets reporting to generate lists.

One way of measuring it (and not entire objective, I appreciate) would be whether a bridge has been deemed notle (ie, has an article) and the sources on that article mostly focus on bridge strikes.

In the history of this saros cycle, no solar eclipse has ever been recorded. At present, most of the sources are mentioned in passing, or some pure data, failed GNG. Q𝟤𝟪 07:07, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Request - Can we centralized all this discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Solar Saros 162? ~Kvng (talk) 14:44, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, per my reasoning at the AfD for solar Saros 162 (which closed "keep"), which I will reproduce here. The rationale for deleting or redirecting individual eclipse articles has been, so far, that they can be included in these list pages; it needlessly complicates things to start rummaging through the list pages themselves. As has been said, there is a large list of these cycles in the navbox, as they are all equal in the sense of being verifiably extant (whether they are ongoing, have ceased, or have not yet begun). Since it's possible to accurately predict eclipses thousands of years into the future, and the human race has successfully done so for hundreds (if not thousands) of years, it seems like it would be trivial to find adequate sourcing here. There's simply no chance of this not happening: the only thing that could cause it not to happen involves the literal destruction of the Earth, and if that happens, I don't think it matters whether Wikipedia had an article on it. jp×g 09:59, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Praemonitus: This article is already a list. In fact, many individual articles about eclipses were previously at AfD and merged up into articles about their respective Saros series. jp×g 06:47, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@JPxG: The fact that this article is a list is irrelevant to my point. The Saros as a range can be a row in a table, and such a table can be made notable. Praemonitus (talk) 13:28, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What I'm saying here boils down to two things, basically -- first of all, AfD is not a process where the creation of new articles is carried out, and second of all, existing consensus from a number of previous discussions established that these lists were a suitable merge target for the information in sub-articles. People !voted to merge the articles and include their content in lists, not to delete the information from Wikipedia entirely (which is what would happen in this case, per List of saros series for lunar eclipses). jp×g 16:58, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. AfD has no common law. As much as people are pointing to other AfDs, they have no influence on the outcome of this one. Further, "keep so we can have an RfC elsewhere" is a rather weak argument. While this discussion is almost unanimous, these flaws led me to this close. -- Guerillero Parlez Moi 17:13, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Request - Can we centralized all this discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Solar Saros 162? ~Kvng (talk) 14:46, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, per my reasoning at the AfD for solar Saros 162 (which closed "keep"), which I will reproduce here. The rationale for deleting or redirecting individual eclipse articles has been, so far, that they can be included in these list pages; it needlessly complicates things to start rummaging through the list pages themselves. As has been said, there is a large list of these cycles in the navbox, as they are all equal in the sense of being verifiably extant (whether they are ongoing, have ceased, or have not yet begun). Since it's possible to accurately predict eclipses thousands of years into the future, and the human race has successfully done so for hundreds (if not thousands) of years, it seems like it would be trivial to find adequate sourcing here. There's simply no chance of this not happening: the only thing that could cause it not to happen involves the literal destruction of the Earth, and if that happens, I don't think it matters whether Wikipedia had an article on it. jp×g 09:40, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Praemonitus: This article is already a list. In fact, many individual articles about eclipses were previously at AfD and merged up into articles about their respective Saros series. jp×g 06:47, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@JPxG: The fact that this article is a list is irrelevant to my point. The Saros as a range can be a row in a table, and such a table can be made notable. Praemonitus (talk) 13:27, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Praemonitus: What I'm saying here boils down to two things, basically -- first of all, AfD is not a process where the creation of new articles is carried out, and second of all, existing consensus from a number of previous discussions established that these lists were a suitable merge target for the information in sub-articles. People !voted to merge the articles and include their content in lists, not to delete the information from Wikipedia entirely (which is what would happen in this case, per List of saros series for lunar eclipses). jp×g 16:58, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think that usually, AfD is not a process where new articles are created, but this isn't always or necessarily the case. Sometimes we create an article on a book while discussing the author, for example, because it is more clear that the book is notable than that the author is. A page on

  • Comment The added references are neither independent nor show notability. The first reference is literary awarded for following campus rules. As for the second reference, an award by your own institution does not show independence nor notability as its recognition is limited on just one campus.

Fellow editors, I don't know what is motivating this rush to kill this article rather than to improve it. This is a small organization, but valid, notable to their community, and the article isn't just thin promotion like so many, many others. Killing it is an example of Deletionism, a harmful tendency within Wikipedia. Perhaps Lenticel, normally a reasonable contributor, has decided to fight this battle because he/she took offense at me for questioning the PROD. The other votes seem to me to be casual "me too" votes, without considering improvement or attempting to help. I think that a fair-minded editor would pause, and adjust their vote to !Keep. Jax MN (talk) 16:56, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a haphazard PROD, by a skilled admin who nevertheless does not have involvement with this category of organization articles. Rather than fix the page, he/she merely opted to kill it. I objected, and found two good sources. Cordially, I note that Wikipedia's rules regarding Deletion state that participants should have a reasonable level of [subject] competence, and elaborates on this, saying that "This means articles, categories or templates should not be nominated in a routine fashion, nor because one feels too lazy to check for sources, or if the content is still being built or improved." This is why I refrain from PRODing or voting on nominations regarding Australian Rules Football, or Rap Music. They're not in my sphere of competence. --What Lenticel may not know is that there are potentially 100,000 or 200,000 local fraternities that may desire a WP article. Our Project group itself only supports a few of these who meet a bar of inclusion (tenure over 10 years, usually a physical location, external references, etc.). The Halcyon group meets our bar of inclusion, which is very stringent, documented, and consistent.
I urge review of votes here, now that the page is improved with these references and clarifications. Jax MN (talk) 17:01, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's great you've added more sources, thank you. I think there's a misunderstanding in terms of what is required in order to establish notability though. I've summarised NCORP below.
  • This is a company/organization therefore
    WP:NCORP
    guidelines apply.
  • We require references that discuss the *organization* in detail. As per
    "Independent Content"
    .
  • "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. This is usually the criteria where most references fail. References cannot rely *only* on information provided by the organization - quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews fail ORGIND. Whatever is left over must also meet CORPDEPTH.
Looking at the new references (you added 6).
  • This from Philippine News Agency doesn't even mention the topic org, fails to establish notability, fails CORPDEPTH
  • This from the University website also doesn't even mention the topic org, fails to establish notability, fails CORPDEPTH
  • This from the LGBTQ magazine simply mentions the topic org by name, a mere mention-in-passing. It is not significant. Fails CORPDEPTH
  • This from Rappler is a list of organizations running various initiatives to provide relief from the aftermath of Typhoon Odette in December 2021. The list contains over 100 organizations of which the topic org is one. It is not significant, contains no in-depth information about the topic org (fails CORPDEPTH) and merely repeats information provided by the topic org (fails ORGIND).
  • This from the Dept of the Environment and Natural Resources is a mere mention-in-passing, is not significant, provides no detailed information about the topic org. Fails CORPDEPTH
  • Finally, this from the University of the Philippines website states that the "author" is the University Media and Public Relations Office. The publishing org is affiliated with the topic org. It does not provide any in-depth info, fails CORPDEPTH
None of those references come close to meeting NCORP's criteria for establishing notability. This isn't about proving that the topic organization exists. Mere mentions or inclusions in lists are classified as trivial coverage. Material produced and repeated in publications have no intellectual independence and fails ORGIND.

I think you misunderstood. Others were posting to delete UP Halcyon because there were no sources and nothing in Google. I proved both points to be incorrect, lending credence to my belief that there is a reasonable expectation that more references exist in sources from the Philippines. While I did not find an extensive article in my very quick scan of Google, the sources I found do qualify as independent and reliable. These citations back much of the previously unsourced content of the article, and also document the work undertaken by the organization which collectively builds a case for notability. For example, two of the sources I added prove that this group has partnered with the local city and a branch of the Philippine government on projects. Yes, I cited two articles that are not about the group, but they are about the award the group won (as in, is the award notable) and the group's founder (as in, is this group associated with anyone of importance and why does this name matter). One of my sources, that you say is just a list, includes a short paragraph about the Halcyon project and a graphic. I will repeat what @Jax MN wrote previously: a university and its student organizations are independent of each other. I used to work in a department of information and development for a small state university--student orgs, the alumni association, the university, the sports office, and even the library are not the same, have totally different PR staff, have their own social media, and rarely speak to each other. Saying that the university is not an independent source in this case would be like saying we cannot use the NCAA as a source on Kansas Jayhawks basketball because the KU is a member of the NCAA. Or that NASCAR cannot be used as a source on Kyle Busch because he participates in NASCAR races. Just like the Jayhawks and Busch cannot control what the larger organizations publish, UP Halcyon cannot control what the university PR office writes. As I have said several times, I agree that more sources are needed to prove notability--I think everyone posting here agrees on this point. I am just suggesting that we take a minute and consider that this group with more than 5K Facebook followers and the potential for extensive coverage fits the criteria to keep under development. At a minimum, its content should be merged rather than deleted. Rublamb (talk) 19:37, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Anton Vogl

There are no sources on the page and there is no information on Anton Vogl online apart from copy pasted articles from the Wikipedia article. This leads into the only other information on Vogl to be from Wikipedia clones which also do not present sources nor count as a source. Copyrightpower1337 (talk) 02:43, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. this was deprodded, but no reason given. I haven't found any evidence of an "Anton Vogl", military officer, ever existing, and I'm giving up after having found Anton Vogl, present-day scientist, Anton Vogl, early 19th-century physician (see eg [33]), and Anton Vogl, early 19th-century historian (presumably not the same guy, but who knows - see [34]). Only the physician is indexed at DB (and no NDB article). I think it is safe to say that Anton Vogl, officer, did not, as the wikipedia article says, become "famous" for much of anything. -- asilvering (talk) 12:04, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete agree with above, can't find much of anything for this fellow. Oaktree b (talk) 12:56, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment -- It is always difficult to judge the quality of a stub. "Lieutenant Field Marshal" sounds like a variety of general; if so I would expect him to be notable. I would also expect there to be an article in the German WP: is there? Peterkingiron (talk) 18:08, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Feldmarschallleutnant was the equivalent of lieutenant-general in the Austro-Hungarian army. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:43, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete as non-notable and likely failing
    WP:V. I say "likely" only because I did find brief mention of a "Lieutenant Colonel Anton Vogl [who] took up post in 1796" of an Austrian cavalry regiment. Fighting Troops of the Austro-Hungarian Army, 1868-1914 - Page 112. The stub article has him being born in 1789, however, which would have made him seven years old when he took command, so he is not likely to be the same man and I can find no source showing an Anton Vogl of higher rank. 68.189.242.116 (talk) 15:34, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply
