A list article with no sourcing or any indication of why it might be notable. I was inspired by this article to draft one about Gravis UltraSound-compatible games, but determined that neither can be expanded to include a decent prose as to why the technologies are noteworthy in video gaming, as corroborated by my searches not yielding enough sources dedicated to the technologies.

  • Comment Not withstanding a search for sources that comes up empty, I wonder if this might meet
    WP:LISTN, as that requires that the entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. I know that retro gaming YouTubers like LGR and PhilsComputerLab have done dedicated videos on the MT-32, as well as other vintage sound hardware like the Gravis UltraSound. While we can't cite those videos directly, there might be sources mentioned within those videos that meet our criteria for RS and would demonstrate the notability of the set such that LISTN would be satisfied and a list of these games would be appropriate.

Delete Seems to be entirely original research without any sources. This belongs on a gaming site, not Wikipedia. Reywas92Talk 15:45, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The notability of the Roland MT-32 article has not been in question so far, so it is unclear to me why a list of games supporting it should require a separate indication of notability. We do not require a list of video games released for a particular video game system to have a an indication of notability, separately from the article on the video game system itself, either, do we? If the question is "What makes MT-32 support more notable for games than support for the Covox Speech Thing or the Adlib Gold 1000?", then I would consider it already answered in the "Music for PC games" section of the Roland MT-32 article.
As for the lack of sourcing, I do not see a source for every release date on every "List of games released for system X" either, so I question the strict enforcement of this policy against this particular list. Even if the requirement were to be enforced, it would be much easier to fulfill (by linking to box scans on MobyGames listing the MT-32 as a supported sound device) than a hypothetical requirement for a source for every single release date on the "List of games released for system X" pages would be. The link to the MobyGames list as a source is poorly-formatted at this time, but that can be easily mended. NewRisingSun (talk) 20:49, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

To all the deletionists: what are you guys hoping to achieve by deleting this page, really? More disk space? Less "noise"? Conforming to some idealised "19th century encyclopdia" concept of yours?
I'm a pragmatic person and I see Wikipedia as a wiki collecting information that's useful to people. Whether some of you people like that or not, that's how it's being used. The 18th-19th century concept of a "classic encyclopedia" has long been surpassed, I find it actually a little silly that the word "encyclopedia" is still kept in the official description of the site. E.g. I routinely come to Wikipedia to check out the synopsis of a particular episode of a TV series (please count how many such lists exist on WP!), or the list of games that use Unity, or lists of films released in a particular year, or the list of joint winners of the Nebula and Hugo awards, or... the list games that support the MT-32! In fact, I came to Wikipedia to check out lists far more frequently than anything else.
Seconding NewRisingSun's irritation; it's fine if you want to delete your own page, but this list has been lovingly maintained over 15 years by the same single guy, and has garnered more than 100k page views. Please leave it alone. Surely, the popularity of a given page should be factored into such decisions. People are clearly interested in this page, without the shadow of a doubt. Can you imagine how many other sites are linking to it? By deleting it, all those links would be broken... Again, what do you hope to accomplish by deleting other people's work?
All in all, this is an inconsistent and completely arbitrary attempt to remove a page that's an extremely useful resource for DOS gamers. And if we're questioning the significance of the Roland MT-32 itself, well, I don't even know what else to say...
Moreover, "references" could be added by linking to MobyGames or some other site. But come on, how would that be helpful? That's just creating busywork... GanymedeanSlimeMold (talk) 03:30, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • On determining notoriety, Wikipedia has many interesting lists. For example, the video game Guitar Hero III has a separate page dedicated to inventorying its soundtrack. That's one game, at one point in time, by one publisher. In comparison, from the late 80s through the mid-90s, famous musicians used Roland's MT-32 to compose game soundtracks because it offered the most realistic instrument reproduction, without equal. Game publishers targeted Roland's MT-32 across 13 separate PC platforms, from Atari to the Macintosh, and it was popular in Japan, Europe, and the Americas. As a co-maintainer of DOSBox Staging, one of many DOSBox software forks that use Munt, an MT-32 emulator, I can attest to the fact that many users refer to this page to learn about the games that contain MT-32 soundtracks. This information is highly valuable and of historical significance for retro PC historians and gamers alike. 99.199.156.216 (talk) 01:43, 3 November 2022 (UTC) kcgen[reply]

NewRisingSun (talk) 07:50, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    ]
    I and others have cited several potential sources and plenty of policy, in particular in my response to Rhododendrites, and you are doing yourself no favors just pretending that it is not there. If you think that those do not qualify, then tell me with sufficient specificity why they don't qualify, and what exactly instead would. The vague policy pages you lazily linked to certainly do not provide that answer. NewRisingSun (talk) 12:44, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Please repost the ones you specifically think satisfy LISTN. Sergecross73 msg me 13:07, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I stated that I don't know what it means to "satisfy LISTN" in light of LISTN's statement that "There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y").", and challenge you to be able to tell whether any source satisfies it or not in that absence of consensus. I also said that "I would be adding one or two references to "Computer Gaming World" from the early 1990s". For example: "Re-Sounding Personal Computers" by Rich Heimlich, Computer Gaming World Issue 12/1990, pg. 60pp: "The MT-32 is based on MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface), a standard already established in the music industry. It uses a technology known as linear Arithmetic Synthesis which enables the MT-32 to generate 32 voices of sound. Not only does the MT-32 have 21 more voices than an AdLib card, but it also benefits from the superior LAS technology. This allows for the most realistic sound available in computer gaming today. The MT-32 is like having a complete orchestra in your computer. It is so impressive that when this reviewer recently played Space Quest III using an MT-32, his jaw almost dropped to the floor. The experience is like living a dream." Is that sufficient notability? I am not going to waste time on more sources if it becomes clear that nothing will satisfy this (in the context of lists) nebulous requirement. And that you stated that you don't believe that it can be reliably sourced strongly hints at that outcome. I suppose it would help if you could write a hypothetical sentence that if properly sourced would make the "grouping" notable, because I beginning to have no idea anymore what it means for a "grouping to be notable". NewRisingSun (talk) 13:19, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Those sources would be helpful for the notability of the parent Roland MT-32 article, but they don't help the list article in sourcing entries or establishing LISTN. Sergecross73 msg me 13:46, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Why not? Explain it, damnit!!! I asked you what exactly would establish LISTN according to your nebulous criteria, and you refuse to answer that question for three posts now. Also, suddenly you are now pulling the "help the list article in sourcing entries" out of the bag, which was not talked about before. I already explained that individual entries *to* the list article are easily sourced with links to box scans that list MT-32 support, which are easily available. My god, you deletionists are impossible. NewRisingSun (talk) 13:53, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    So far you have sourced how each thing in the list is notable. But why is the list important or notable. Sergecross has given you sources and information about the articles lack of notability and policies, either in this thread, or the other ones above it. PerryPerryD Talk To Me 16:38, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Look, I'm sympathetic to the fact that some of Wikipedia's rules are difficult to understand. But it's not particularly the duty of AFD participants (let alone someone who opposes your stance) to teach you Wikipedia policies. I'm not required to do anything more than give a policy-based stance and explain it well enough that the closing admin can understand it. I am not your mentor, teacher, or parent. Its up to you to learn, understand, and apply policy. That said, part of the issue here isn't even Wikipedia jargon. It's that there's a disconnect between your source(s) and the discussion taking place here today. You presented a fine source for explaining the notability of the subject of the Roland MT-32.

The duel was a notable event, and has received significant coverage. It is covered in newspapers at the time, and in two book-length histories over a hundred years later. The sources also describe the duellist's distinguished naval career in nineteen battles, and he's clearly the main focus of all the sources, so it makes sense to have an article on the man rather than the duel. But this could quite easily be turned into an article about the duel and renamed, if others think that is a better way to present the information. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 05:23, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete If he had a "distinguished naval career" we should be seeing more distinguishing stuff about it. The duel is interesting, but not terribly notable. I'd don't think he'd be at GNG without the duel, not sure that adds much to it. If he wasn't in the Navy, a guy who dies in a duel but does nothing outside of that wouldn't be GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 18:20, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Can you explain why you think the sources above don't give significant coverage? The last source I linked goes into his naval career in some detail. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 18:29, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's a fine source, but it seems to be the only one about the Navy, I didn't consider the ones discussing the duel particularly detailed. He was in the English Navy, I'd expect something to be found in the Royal Navy archives if he was that "distinguised". It's almost at GNG, if we had another source for the naval information I'd feel more comfortable offering a GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 00:49, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I think there's enough for notability: there were reports of the duel at the time across the country, for example Caledonian Mercury - Monday 07 May 1792 (registration reqd), Notes and Queries from 1924 has a couple of pages about the duel and seems he was regarded as a naval hero: Catching smugglers, an expedition against the French and intercepting merchant ships... the fascinating tale of a naval hero and Illustrated talk on Charmouth’s village’s tragic naval hero Piecesofuk (talk) 14:22, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Seems to meet GNG. This source from Piecesofuk is significant. Here's another book which discusses his navy career, although I don't have access to much of it. Here's another book that discusses his duel, also not mentioned so far. This (unsourced but) detailed article discusses his navy career (he captained the HM Adventure (verification) and the HM Wells (verification)), and much more. In light of Ficaia's earlier findings, I think we have GNG. Oaktree b, do you think so? Arbitrarily0 (talk) 03:25, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment - I don't agree. None of these goes beyond local interest. The main source of information is the memorial inscription in the churchyard; the rest are passing mentions only (he commanded X ship, he commanded Y ship: not notable), not the coherent accounts / research that would satisfy GNG. The story of the duel is repeated with very few changes from one source to another, and is on the level of a curiosity, sparked by the unusually long memorial inscription. The story in the Bridport News is about a local talk, and repeats pretty much the same information plus some extra genealogy. Not everything old is notable, however often it's repeated. Ingratis (talk) 03:51, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • Significant coverage, according to GNG, is that which addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. It would certainly be nice to have more detail; but what we have is enough to write a balanced, accurate, and sufficiently-detailed article, which is what GNG is, in part, intended to ensure. Arbitrarily0 (talk) 12:25, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Frankly it light of the sourcing presented in this discussion I think
    WP:GNG is easily met. Sources found the man sufficiently of note to write about him during his life, at his death, and again more than 120 years later. Ficaia's sourcing alone is in my opinion sufficient, and the Bridport News story cements it. I think that the man is more notable than the duel; while it wouldn't be enough alone, his naval career, including twice holding command at sea, adds to his notability.

5Q5, IMDb is not an indicator of notability. Anyone with a YouTube channel (or even without one) can create a profile of themselves calling themself an actor, writer or director.

  • Comment: Regarding the above comments about IMDb, neither of the Keep voters who have referred to IMDb has relied on IMDb itself to assert that the notability guidelines are met. 5Q5 simply referenced IMDb in passing. The point that I believe 5Q5 was making was that the subject has appeared as himself 21 times, and that's an indicator of notability—that is, appearing as oneself. It is the 21 self-credits—not the mere existence of an IMDb page—that is indicative of notability. Moresdi doesn't argue that simply having an IMDb page goes towards notability, either, but rather makes the point that the subject has a significant list of credits. Again, IMDb was only referenced in passing. Therefore, I believe that the rebuttal arguments which are being made—and which, in effect, say that the existence of an IMDb page does not go towards notability—are misdirected. Dflaw4 (talk) 11:59, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @
    WP:NACTOR? Further, I've seen 5Q5 frequently only refer to IMDb in their AfD comments, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Susan Gallagher, where they list IMDb as the only rationale, which to me is contrary to your interpretation. After Liz's query, they stated that I've been a registered editor at IMDb for nearly 20 years. It is not like Wikipedia or social media. All content submitted to the site via a form process requires approval by staff before they publish it. Nothing is published directly by users. Even Wikipedia's own article on Amazon-owned IMDb acknowledges these points, which to me is affirming IMDb is reliable. Therefore, I disagree with your interpretation, Dflaw4. Many thanks!

    Comment from 5Q5: I only recently started voting in these actor/filmmaker AfDs (not inclined to going forward) so I was unfamiliar with the bias and perpetuated false assumptions about IMDb and how it actually works, since I have long experience on how it actually does. For instance, you can't add a birthdate or death date without providing strong confirmable sources. You can't create an IMDb profile for yourself and call yourself an actor or director. You can create a resume on IMDbPro, a paid service, and if that shows up on regular IMDb it indicates as such. Even Pro content has to be approved though, no direct user publishing.
IMDb FAQ: How can I provide proof that my submission is valid? Please keep in mind that we require verification of on-screen billing. In other words, we do not just want verification that you were involved in the making of a film -- we want evidence that your name appears in the main or end titles. Cast/crew call sheets, contracts, payment receipts, etc. are not evidence of on-screen billing. If you are able to prove that the credit does appear on screen (e.g., by providing a screener copy or a screen grab of the credits or similar materials), please contact us and we'll give you further instructions.
My opinion on the current IMDb is that it has improved its verification standards significantly with change of ownership (Amazon purchase) and is generally reliable with no direct publishing by users. I do not intend to change my vote in this particular AfD and if there is another vote on IMDb's reliability down the road I would appreciate a note informing me on my talk page so that I may participate. Thank you. 5Q5| 11:25, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how IMDb works in terms of publishing content. I would agree that the lists of credits you find there seem to be reliable, and IMDb is likely the starting point for most of us in these
WP:NACTOR AfDs, to gauge just how much work the subject has done. But again, I don't think that was the point that 5Q5 was making. They said: "Also noted is that he has 21 Self credits on IMDb, an additional indicator of notability." I don't think the in-passing reference to IMDb ("on IMDb") was the point being made as regards notability, but rather the fact that the subject has appeared as himself in 21 TV productions. The "on IMDb" doesn't really add to the argument that was being made. 5Q5 could have simply written, "Also noted is that he has 21 Self credits, an additional indicator of notability," thereby omitting "on IMDb", and it wouldn't have changed the point they were making.

I'm sorry but I know that your views on IMDb are not accurate. I go through hundreds of expiring drafts each day, many of them are autobiographies and almost everyone of them links their social media accounts and their IMDb profile. When I look at their IMDb profiles, they are inevitably listing videos they made for YouTube channels, they are not actors, writers and directors in films or TV series. Many people with IMDb profiles are not paid professionals. They use their IPhones to make videos and then call themselves "a series creator". I have also been active on IMDb for decades and no change or addition I submitted ever required verification. IMDB is user-generated and I think anyone who has more than a few subscribers on their YouTube channels has an IMDb profile for themselvse. I'm sure that there are higher standards on IMDbPro because it is a paid service but not on the regular IMDb site.
But you know, it doesn't matter what you think and what I think, on Wikipedia, IMDb is not considered a reliable source and that's what counts. Liz Read! Talk! 07:40, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Anyone is free to register to edit at IMDb and see if I am acurately describing the submission process. If IMDb does not request confirmation sourcing (they have your email when you register) it is because they were able to verify it themselves. Notability in 2022 doesn't necessarily involve old-school theatrical films and TV shows. This is my final post in this AfD. I have voted, I'm done. 5Q5| 11:15, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly why we can't use IMDb. Anyone can submit anything. You can use it to confirm the role, but it should be cross-referenced to something else that confirms it. It's good for looking up facts, but not for sourcing here in Wikipedia. Oaktree b (talk) 15:19, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's correct. Those are the two roles I found. Oaktree b (talk) 00:53, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your reply. We might have different interpretations, but from Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other production I personally see this as that the television show should be notable- as in it has multiple independent, reliable, secondary sources that constitute of significant coverage.
From what I see Jamie hosted American Heroes Channel: America Facts VS Fiction. While he had a significant role in the show (satisfying one part of the criteria), I don't think the show is a notable television show (the other part) as I didn't find refs demonstrating Facts VS Fiction is notable. However, if you could find more refs on the show, please ping me and I could strike my weak delete vote. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 01:33, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The article says that he has gained fame by portraying the character Mike Callahan on the TBS comedy My Boys. Gained fame? Hmmm. The reference for that extraordinary claim is an interview with him and the link is dead. Much of this discussion is based on a misunderstanding of
    WP:NACTOR. Meeting a special notability guideline like that is a presumption or likelihood of notability, not a guarantee. What is required is significant coverage in reliable sources that are entirely independent of the topic. This debate has been going on for three weeks, and nobody has been able to come up with a single source that meets that standard. The CNN source begins with Comedians are talking funny to CNN about various topics, and we offer them for laughs in this feature of CNN Comedy. It is a blend of an interview and a comedy performance, is clearly not independent and is therefore of no value in establishing notability. It is entertainment, not journalism. The bottom line is that he is a low level working actor and comedian who had a four year run as the sixth billed actor on a sitcom, but has never became notable as Wikipedia defines that term.

  • Keep This is an important place and worth its own article. This is taught is Schools, hence, this is notable. It is also a geographical place covering wide areas. I don't see any reason for its deletion.PlorekyHave a problem? 17:28, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: There's enough sources that a stand-alone article is appropriate. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:55, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: No one can actually be reading the sources, because if they did, they would be finding next to no reliable mentions of the subject. Not inspiring.

Not a bad shout, since it is unclear if everyone has taken the time to closely inspect the sourcing or not. I have erred on the side of generosity regarding significance. @4meter4, @Junedude433: I hope you find this elucidating.
Source Significant? Independent? Reliable? Secondary? Pass/Fail Notes
the map source Question? Green tickY Question? Red XN Question? This reconstructed map certainly mentions an Emavon, but no source has been provided to connect Emavon to Imeon - the two might be the same, but without a source asserting this, it is
WP:OR
. A 7th-century map is also primary.
The Geography of Ananias of Sirak Question? Green tickY Question? Question? Question? No page number is provided. 467 is the number of pages. I found an archive.org copy of the work, but it is impossible to determine what the reference might be without reading the whole book. It is primary text with commentary.
Silk Road, North China - history blog Red XN Green tickY Red XN Green tickY Red XN Does not mention the subject by name. About the region in general. Pure
WP:SYNTH
.
The Travels of Marco Polo, Vol. 1. Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Red XN Red XN Does not mention the subject by name. About the region in general. Pure
WP:SYNTH
.
History of the Armenians. Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN No page number has been provided and the subject does not appear in a search of the text. More likely
WP:SYNTH
.
SCAR Composite Gazetteer of Antarctica Question? Green tickY Question? Green tickY Question? Not about the subject but the name of a mountain range on Smith Island (South Shetland Islands), named after what it attests as the Bulgarian name for a mountain in the present day Pamir and Hindu Kush. One sentence. Pretty trivial.
(in references but not cited) US gov source Question? Green tickY Question? Green tickY Question? Has one line noting the Mount Imeon area as being in the "present Hindu Kush in northern Afghanistan". Trivial.
(in references but not cited) misc web source Question? Green tickY Question? Green tickY Question? Web source of unclear provenance. Mentions "in the Pamirs and the Hindu Kush around Mount Imai." - I assume this is the reference. Trivial. Again, no source attests that this name is the same name (
WP:OR
).
(in references but not cited) link to a book contents page Question? Green tickY Question? Green tickY Question? Links to contents page with no page number referenced. Again, impossible to assess without reading the work, as with the other unreferenced, unlinked sourced.
Total qualifying sources 0
There must be multiple qualifying sources to meet the notability requirements
I would request that the discussion be relisted again, so that participants and any new takers can inspect the sourcing more carefully.

It is quite disconcerting that you have clearly done no fact checking for yourself and are persisting in this. As I did before I did a quick search, which easily turned up numerous valid sources, to whit:
I could go on but numerous reliable source are easily found [17].
Of the sources used in the article.
  • http://www.kroraina.com/ is simply a conglomeration of papers, individually they need to be taken on their merit. The map is from this paper [18], to me it seems reasonably reliable.
  • [19] is clearly a reliable source, also found on google books [20]. The accusation that the ISBN has been falsified is a bad faith presumption, it is easy to make a transcription error, I've done so myself.
  • [21] is perfectly valid for citing the route of the silk road, the fact it doesn't mention Imeon is irrelevant; this is not

    .
  • [22] is perfectly valid for citing the route of the silk road, the fact it doesn't mention Imeon is irrelevant; this is not
    WP:SYNTH
    .
  • [23] valid cite for the subject it is supporting; this is not
    WP:SYNTH
    .
  • [24] valid cite for the subject it is supporting; this is not
    WP:SYNTH
    .
  • [25] Clearly mentions Mount Imeon and location. I note this has been labelled by Iskander as "failed verification".
I stand by my original assessment that there are sufficient reliable sources already in the article to merit keep, there are plenty of reliable sources to expand the article and provide additional cites if needed. This does not need to be relisted and I will not change my comment. Iskander needs to drop the stick and step away from the
deceased horse. WCMemail 08:27, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply

    I am still wondering how you understand the notability guidelines of wikipedia.
    Someone designed and launch an app, and the ghanaian media picked it up, and that becomes a promotional fluff?? You think the app does not deserve to be talked about in the news? or yours is just the normal racist attitude towards anything Africa. Pteph Lon (talk) 19:44, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm sorry you feel that way, but let me show you what I'm talking about. This article is about only about 320 words. Of those 320 words, over half are a direct quote from the app-builder and the rest are basic and overly promotional descriptions of the app: Stayplain is the new way to communicate with friends and family and serves as the most advanced and innovative social media platform is entirely promotional. This piece is similar. It actually cites the Pulse.com.gh piece, which isn't great, but it's entirely written as though it's promoting the app. That's not a reliable source by our standards, and doesn't help to show the app is notable. Alyo (chat·edits) 20:20, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Hmm, I understand your point now bro, and sorry for my outburst. I will get other relevant sources to support the article Pteph Lon (talk) 10:52, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Very few reliable sources available, the ones cited in the article aren't really independent or reliable. The "pulse" one for example isn't a news source or anything like that, they're an ad agency: [26]. Google turns up basically nothing useful. --Jayron32 17:59, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Hope you're good. I have made the needed corrections and added new citation sources. Please, kindly check it out so we can reach an agreement. Thanks Pteph Lon (talk) 08:10, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't get you at all. What shows that the app doesn't meet the notability guidelines?? This is an article i will be inviting other wikipedians to contribute to. Your only problem is that you haven't heard about the app before, and hence your believe that it doesn't meet the notability guidelines.
You think you're the only one that read and understand the notability guidelines? or you think some of us just stand up and put anything on wikipedia? Pteph Lon (talk) 19:40, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
and describing Pulse Ghana as an ad agency makes me feel so sad. Pulse Ghana that is owned by a Turkish media giant with sister media companies in Kenya, Nigeria, Turkey etc?? Pteph Lon (talk) 19:46, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
To be fair, the About Us page on Pulse Ghana does emphasize its marketing services and the parent site, pulse.africa, doesn't highlight its media operations separately from its marketing services.

    You could possibly create something like this on Fandom (or jsut copy it to Fandom while making sure to provide attribution) but I'm not entirely sure. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:00, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per everyone in this nom so far. While we do sometimes have lists of characters in movies, that's usually because they are notable but not enough to have their own articles. However this is basically just a list of every wrestler that has participated in WWF/E and was in the games. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:03, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Obviously biased because of the time spent, but keep. I see this as no different to any of the ones in Category:Lists_of_video_game_characters, with the exception that there's an article for each character. The trivia sub-section could probably be removed since it's not too important (although one or two of the stats might be). But there's literally 500 different individuals who appeared in these video games, and I think this is the best way to display that. With 30+ years of games, I think it's notable enough. I'd honestly rather have this than a roster page on each game's article (which some have, and some don't, and it's inconsistent). Xanarki (talk) 14:19, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh god I can see the massive amounts of cruft in those articles already...Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:03, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah I understand the association. I just figured, in my personal opinion, since the WWF/E games aren't actually sports titles + there's a consistency of the games being associated to one singular company (WWE), that an organized list wouldn't be farfetched. The wrestlers also has defined personalities and backgrounds (thus why they're listed with ring names), as opposed to (most) sports players who are only known for their stats. Pretty much everyone besides me seems to disagree on these points though, so I'll stop banging the drum on it. Xanarki (talk) 16:23, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"since the WWF/E games aren't actually sports titles" What do you mean? I'm fairly sure Wrestling is considered a sport and therefore these would be sports titles. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:16, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, in a traditional sense, professional wrestling isn't a sport. It's scripted programming with physical scenes, not much different from an action movie or an action-based soap opera. There's many sources that places wrestling video games as a subgenre of the fighting genre instead of the sports genre. If there was an Olympics mat-based 1-on-1 wrestling video game (does that exist...? must be extremely slow-paced if it does), then that would be more suitable under the sports genre. But since the WWF/E games are different, they are more closely associated to the fighting genre. That's simply the perspective I took, and is the basis as to why I think the page has similar qualities to other fighting games' lists. Xanarki (talk) 17:27, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Huh. I didn't actually know that. Thanks for informing me. Man professional wrestling must be boring to watch if you know what's gonna happen.Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:41, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have access to
The Young Vic significant given their international reputations. I am not done adding sources, and have not yet begun looking through the archives of The Times, The Guardian, etc. I would imagine other sources will appear. For the moment I am combing through the lengthy number of articles in The Stage, but will move on to other databases later. Also, there are some books and reviews I have added from other sources already, so not everything I have added is from the same publication. Best.4meter4 (talk) 18:48, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply
