- Agree: The CWHL fails Wikipedia:NHOCKEY/LA, and her career also fails WP:SPORTSCRIT. Combined with the lack of media attention, I regrettably agree that this article should face deletion. That being said, there is something to be said about the inherent notability of someone who has consistently achieved at a high level, even when such achievement doesn't get media attention. Doesn't change my vote, but she is obviously extremely talented, and I dislike the deletion of the article because there isn't sufficient coverage. Unfortunately, we are at the whim of what media decides to cover, and what people decide to care about, and in this case, Women's professional hockey and inline skating is not it.

There are no reliable sources that meaningfully discuss this fictional organisation. In its current state, this article exclusively relies on primary sources, with the exception of an article that was published by a Valnet-owned publisher. Furthermore, it might not be a valid search term, as a massive number of false positives were found while trying to search for usable sources. ―Susmuffin Talk 23:27, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

- Delete - The single non-primary source currently in the article is not only a WP:VALNET source, but its actual coverage of The Enclave is the most trivial of mentions. Searches are also not actually turning up significant coverage in reliable sources regarding the group - the vast majority of "coverage" of the group are simply mentions (in largely churnalism-like articles) describing who Adam Warlock is with a brief mention that he was created by the Enclave. The only possible valid WP:ATD here would potentially be simply to redirect this to Adam Warlock where the group is already mentioned as part of his origin, but there is no valid content here for a merge, and suggesting to Keep this without actually offering any reliable sources that would suggest it passes the WP:GNG is pretty ludicrous.

- Redirect to Outline of philosophy. It's hard to see if NLIST is met. There are plenty of sources about philosophy, but NLIST would require sources about discrete philosophies considered as a full group or set. There are perhaps some useful sources about world philosophies but I think it is more natural to interpret these sources as being about philosophy considered from a global perspective. There are also other sources considering groups of philosophies but they are generally restricted to a particular theme (e.g. legal philosophies). The concept of philosophies is probably to vague to have a useful list but Outline of philosophy will have everything that would be useful to readers. Shapeyness (talk) 14:52, 16 June 2025 (UTC)

Non-notable local election, citations do not show significant coverage. WP:BEFORE did not show anything but I may not have access to some sources. Lots of election pages were created for this city and all show a similar level of coverage so those may be able to be nominated as well Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 18:52, 19 June 2025 (UTC)

- No comment on merits, but 2025 Naga, Camarines Sur, local elections was a high profile election involving the wife of the winner of this 1988 election, who had been vice president. Now, the question is, if the 2025 election was notable, would that mean all articles in the series are also notable? See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2025 Davao City local elections. Howard the Duck (talk) 19:12, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- No, it would not automatically mean that. The 2025 one is definitely notable, but it does not necessarily carry over here Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 19:15, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- Interesting! Where do we draw the line, then? I know you'd say WP:GNG, and in 1988 the internet was never heard of in the Philippines, and all we have are Google Newspaper archives of Manila newspapers. This is not like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2022 Mapandan local elections, an election in a town of 40,000 (in 2025; 25,000 in 1990); this an election in a city of 115,000 in 1990 (210,000 in 2025). Howard the Duck (talk) 19:20, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- Of course, the line is always GNG, but population size does not matter much either. If those newspaper archives showed significant coverage, that would be great, but I did not find any from a cursory search. The sort of presumed coverage I would usually look for is consistent coverage meeting GNG on other pages of the same local elections from different years, but none of the other were very enlightening, except of course 2025. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 19:23, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- Again, interesting that you disregard population size of a settlement in regards to notability. Surely, what happens in a city with a population within six figures is more notable than a town that is smaller than the capacity of the Araneta Coliseum? Would you agree to that? Howard the Duck (talk) 19:26, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- I don't mean to disregard population size, I would hardly think to nominate a election for a city with a population over 1 million (as an arbitrary example), but my focus is on the lack of coverage that I was able to identify, which in my opinion is the only relevant factor.
- Smaller cities can definitely have more notable elections than larger ones, it all matters on how news covers it. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 19:28, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- You said "population size does not matter much either."
- Then you said "I don't mean to disregard population size." Make up your mind, I guess?
- Either way, what you had said is true; Naga is a smaller settlement than Marilao, of which was deleted. Marilao though is significantly closer to Manila, becomming a commuter town of sorts in the 21st century. Naga is much further away from Manila, but it is a regional center for centuries (plural), and people actually commute to it. It's sort of the Manila in its vicinity. Howard the Duck (talk) 19:38, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- I meant to say that the simple fact of a larger population does not imply more coverage. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 19:49, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- I'd probably agree on that, if that what you had said.
- Now, I've went through the series of artickes, and this one had vote totals. I would have agreed to delete articles which do not have that, which are 2001 and 2004, then incomplete totals for 2007 and 2010. Howard the Duck (talk) 20:00, 19 June 2025 (UTC)

I tagged this article about an independent school with notability concerns in 2023. I have now carried out WP:BEFORE and added a reference to a book which has half a sentence about the school; but I have not found significant coverage in independent secondary sources. I don't think the school meets WP:GNG or WP:NCORP, although I am aware I may be missing sources in Chinese.

The article notes: "香港弘立書院為本港已故諾貝爾獎得主高鱘院士等倡議創辦,建校雖時間不長,但很受本港家長青睞。我於五年前慕名探訪了該書院,受到總校長查永茂博士的熱情接待,至今記憶猶新的是該校深耕“八德一智”,厚植中國傳統文化的獨特辦學理念。 書院位於港島南,校園四周林木扶疏,碧草茵茵,有鳥鳴蟲唱,無車馬喧囂,環境靜穆,堂舍敞亮,確是莘莘學子求知問學的好處所。... 書院設有「中國文化中心」,建造家校融合的社區,定期邀請國學名家講授中國傳統文化。書院也開闢了一個充滿中國古代書院風格,擁有典藏經典文獻、學習和研究功能的學術機構,命名為“書院中的書院”,開設了中國古代經典文、史、哲、詩、詞、曲等課程"
From Google Translate: "Hong Kong Independent Schools Foundation Academy was founded by the late Hong Kong Nobel Prize winner Academician Gao Xun and others. Although the school was established not long ago, it is very popular among Hong Kong parents. I visited the college five years ago and was warmly received by the principal, Dr. Cha Yongmao. What I still remember is the school's unique educational philosophy of deeply cultivating the "Eight Virtues and One Wisdom" and embedding Chinese traditional culture. The college is located in the south of Hong Kong Island. The campus is surrounded by lush trees and green grass. There are birds singing and insects singing. There is no noise of cars and horses. The environment is quiet and the halls are bright. It is indeed a good place for students to seek knowledge and learn. ... The college has a "Chinese Cultural Center" to build a community where families and schools are integrated, and regularly invites famous Chinese scholars to teach Chinese traditional culture. The college has also opened up an academic institution full of the style of ancient Chinese academies, with classic documents, learning and research functions, named "College in the College", and has opened courses in ancient Chinese classics such as literature, history, philosophy, poetry, lyrics, and music."

Having gone through the available source material, I have been unable to find anything to establish significant coverage of this person in reliable sources. His main work of note was a single book about social anarchism, which has received some attention but not much more than a passing reference in most sources (see Google Scholar results). David Wieck's obituary for the Social Anarchism journal, listed in the further reading, appears to be the only work specifically about Baldelli that could lead to any development of this article. As this article appears not to meet the notability guidelines for authors, I'm recommending it for deletion. A possible alternative to deletion could be redirecting to social anarchism, although he's not mentioned in the body of that article, so this may not be appropriate.

- Redirect simply as an alternative to deletion. The keep comments above have not established which sources as a group meet the GNG. If all we have is the one encyclopedia source and passing mentions in books (which is all I've found), then that isn't enough on which to base a standalone article. It would require a much deeper scavenge of period Italian-language sources to find reviews for his other works, as his 1972 Social Anarchism was not apparently reviewed in English-language periodicals or indexed in Book Review Digest. czar 15:47, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

- Comment - So I had look at the sources again and the news announcement by Universo Online is the best one: [7]. It contains some critical analysis. Then there is a preview of the original game when it was still in development in this print magazine: [8]. I still think this subject is below notability. No actual review of the original game or the remake. There are really short writeups: [9]:
"Nesta edição, o pessoal da CD Expert Kids caprichou. E a criançada irá viajar ao Egito, junto com Gustavinho, um menino esperto e cheio de energia.

Keepand keep on improving. Nominator is right that the article could be improved, so I have tagged the article accordingly with the issues they have identified (more and better references needed, needs to be revised to be more neutral in tone, likely contains original research). I have also added {{citation needed}} tags throughout, and added a reference and confirmed that there is other significant coverage that could be added (via ProQuest). In any case, the reasons given essentially amount to an argument to delete because cleanup is required, and this is invalid per WP:DELETIONISNOTCLEANUP. (Even though the desire for cleanup is appreciated.) Furthermore, there is no mention of any WP:BEFORE search. Strongly advise nominator to gain more experience in reading Wikipedia guidelines and editing in their areas of competence before nominating more articles for deletion. Cielquiparle (talk) 11:25, 20 June 2025 (UTC)- What do you see [12] there is likely a possible COI, tho I’m still checking, my issue is why the creator keeps removing tags, moving articles back to mainspace, creator lacks experience and temperament.

- Draftify. First of all, it is very clear to me that neither of the tagged criteria for speedy deletion (A7 and G11) apply. A before search, which appears to have not been performed by the nominator, shows there is at least some indication of significance. G11 requires the article to be
exclusively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to serve as encyclopedia articles
(emphasis included in policy). Cleanup is required but not to the point that the article is not salvageable. Much of the content is unsourced and the references there are not great. Most are either not independent or are player profiles with one-line mentions of the subject program. Moving to draftspace will allow any interested user to build the article up to encyclopedic standards before moving it back into mainspace.

- Suggesting that my article must be self-promotional because “someone involved in ODP” wrote it is an ad hominem circumstantial (genetic) fallacy: it rejects the content based solely on an assumed motive or origin rather than evaluating the article’s actual sourcing and neutrality. I have zero involvement in that organization and am still researching it.
- For context, this article emerged directly from the research conducted to answer the community question in Chicago: “Is Illinois ODP still worth it? Does it genuinely help with college recruitment?” You’ll see that the article:
- Notes ODP’s changing reputation, including that it has lost some of its earlier luster rather than presenting it as the undisputed pinnacle of development programs.
- Cites independent coverage—local newspaper articles, US Youth Soccer annual reports, and academic analyses—rather than relying on press releases or self-published claims.
- Maintains a neutral tone, focusing on verifiable facts about the program’s history, selection process, and outcomes.
- If there are specific passages you feel remain promotional or poorly sourced, I’m happy to rewrite them or add better citations. I’m committed to meeting WP:NEUTRAL and WP:RS standards, so please let me know any additional reliable sources I should include. Milicz (talk) 15:06, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete or redirect to U.S. Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program. This fails notability for organizations.

- Comment:The Tags on the article are too alarming, check creators contributions, there are high similarities on articles created, now for example the article title is "Illinois ODP" but the first text is "Illinois Girls Olympic Development Program", It seams to have a slight deviation from the article title to be honest. I was to suggest that instead of the creator creating similar pages with different Page names, It would have been wise to just create one or two and provide good source, good writing, formatting skills and make the writing clearer to anyone who comes across the article to understand.

- Reply @Allblessed it doesn’t help to challenge my removal of the CSD tags when those tags were added without proper justification. Wikipedia’s guidelines need to be applied consistently—both when adding and removing tags. Rules aren’t one-way streets. Rather than creating disputes, which you have done on my article), it would be more productive to collaborate on refining and improving the article itself. Milicz (talk) 15:00, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Milicz There is a proper and well outlined procedure for handling allegedly improper CSD tags, and it isn't removing them yourself. When you create an article, you are connected to it more than any other contributor, whether one likes it or not. We know you support the existence of the article, you created it, and it is a conflict of interest to remove these types of tags from something you created, no matter how repetitive or improper they may seem. When you are closely connected to a subject, as it appears you are (whether you're affiliated with them, whether you are working for them, whether you just really like youth soccer in the Land of Lincoln; I don't care, it's not relevant, what is relevant is the level to which you obviously care about this), it is imperative that you operate above reproach, so as to not even give the impression that you may be acting in a biased manner. You are held to a higher standard of behavior because you created the page. You are inherently unable to view any of this completely objectively, and that goes for any author, who creates any page.
- Regarding the actions of other editors, it's important to remember that each situation is evaluated independently. While it can be frustrating if you perceive another editor as not following guidelines, their actions don't justify a similar response. Our focus should always be on adhering to the established procedures for every situation. Further, they did not create a dispute, you created a dispute when you removed a CSD tag from a page you created multiple times. (Almost) any repeated editing back and forth as was clearly done here is a violation of Wikipedia:Edit warring. Wikipedia is a community of editors working to help bring knowledge to the world. The task we have is infinite. We are guardians of and contributors to one of the last stanchions of truly free knowledge, the responsibility is awesome, and it must be treated as such.

*Strong Keep Regardless of any behavior by any editor, this organization clearly meets the bar of notability and importance. It'd be great if the delete crowd could backup the lack of notability argument. Do you not like women's soccer? Do you not think it's clear this org developed players that went on to represent the USA? Is the fact that those notable players advertise that they were in this program not an indicator that those individuals thought it was notable that they took part in it? It's referenced in plenty of material, but not the material you want? 20+ citations is not enough but other articles with a "need citations" tag can stick around for decades?

This article is either hoax or misidentification.

Furthermore, the Aiyang Tlang Peak is said to be in between Zow Tlang and Jogi Haphong. However, per USGS Topo Map[13], there is no other peak higher than 1000 meter in between the aforementioned peaks.

The article as written fails NCORP and it's not clear that it would pass if the article were about the hotel itself. In short, this is an article which I could see being salvaged, but at the moment it's an article on a building that's really being used to promote the hotel within the building.

- Delete. I went through the article checking the sources. There are many claims about acknowledgement of his work, but the sources quoted only make minor reference to it. The text is thus quite inappropriate at the very least, and I have added some inline tags. Beyond that his citations are modest with no major prizes so he is some distance from passing WP:NPROF, and there is nothing that comes close for any notability criteria.Ldm1954 (talk) 09:18, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for your detailed feedback and for highlighting the areas requiring improvement. In response, I have made substantive revisions aimed at addressing the concerns you raised, specifically regarding notability, sourcing, and editorial tone.
- I have significantly expanded and improved the reference base throughout the article. Not only are there now more independent and reliable secondary sources, but these also include peer-reviewed Nature journal articles and major policy documents that discuss or cite Bojić’s work—particularly on large language models and the “CERN for AI” concept. This is intended to more clearly demonstrate that his contributions have been independently recognized in both academic and policy forums, with attention to WP:NPROF and WP:GNG criteria.
- Where previous references overstated the subject’s recognition, I have revised the language for neutrality and accuracy. “Acknowledgement” claims have been replaced with verified citations, and a [dubious] tag remains where appropriate for transparency. Direct quotations from new policy briefs and reputable news sources have been incorporated to highlight independent uptake or discussion of Bojić’s ideas, such as in the context of EU deliberations.
- Bojić’s institutional roles are now fully cited, including links to the AI Institute of Serbia’s events and the Serbian Government’s official registry of researchers, directly confirming his affiliations.
- - Claims relating to his involvement with UNEP foresight initiatives are now supported by official UN documentation.
- - Biographical details about family members now cite Wikipedia articles in Serbian, as per cross-referenced WP:BLP policies.
- I hope these improvements address previous concerns. I believe the article now meets WP:N, WP:V, and WP:PROF standards, and I respectfully suggest that retention is currently warranted. I welcome any further suggestions or requests for evidence. Devetakapija (talk) 08:28, 29 June 2025 (UTC)
Keep – In response to the points raised:
Thank you all for the careful scrutiny and the specific feedback provided above. I would like to summarize the recent improvements to the article and how these revisions address the policies cited by participants (WP:GNG, WP:NPROF, and COI concerns):
1. Addressing WP:GNG/WP:NPROF: Several reliable, independent secondary sources have been added that reference the subject’s work beyond mere self-publication or routine teaching roles:
- The Edinburgh Companion to the New European Humanities – a scholarly monograph, discusses the subject’s pioneering multidisciplinary approach to the digital humanities. This is an independent, non-trivial coverage in a reliable source (see NPROF C2).
- Multiple peer-reviewed articles about LLM assessment, artificial consciousness, and pragmatics, have cited the subject’s research (including recent citations in Psychology Today and Scieniast). This constitutes some recognition by the academic community (relevant for NPROF C3).
- Policy documents (including a Horizon TwON project brief and an interview in Research Professional News (Clarivate)) independently mention the subject by name and reference specific contributions (i.e., the CERN for AI initiative). These references go beyond passing mention, as the policy brief specifically discusses the relevance of Bojić’s research and recommendations in context.
- The European Commission's 2025 AI investment initiative, while not naming Bojić personally, closely aligns with models discussed in his work, indicating potential notability through significant indirect influence.
- Participation in global initiatives (e.g. UNEP foresight projects) is now credibly cited via official and independent documentation.
2. Reference Improvements: All references were carefully reviewed. The article now takes care to distinguish between brief citations/mentions and deeper discussion. Any previous overstatements have been toned down to match the actual significance of cited coverage, per WP:NPOV and WP:V.
3. Modest Citations and Awards: While it is accurate that subject does not hold major international prizes, NPROF does not require awards per se: it also allows notability to be demonstrated through significant coverage/impact in reliable sources, including peer recognition and applied policy impact. The above sources show the subject’s influence on current research and policy.
4. Possible COI: I acknowledge concerns about single-purpose/COI contributions. The improvements made draw on independent, third-party sources, and I encourage further independent edits/corrections from uninvolved editors to ensure neutrality. I do not have a conflict of interest beyond a desire to ensure coverage is accurate and policy-compliant.
5. Sorting Lists: Thank you for adding the article to appropriate deletion sorting lists. This invites needed community input.
Happy to address further tagging or clarify any remaining issues with sources or content.

- Your statement that "The European Commission's 2025 AI investment initiative, while not naming Bojić personally, closely aligns with models discussed in his work, indicating potential notability through significant indirect influence" shows how far you're having to stretch to try to demonstrate notability. I've removed the sentence about this from the article as original research, given that it doesn't mention the subject or his work. Cordless Larry (talk) 09:55, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
- Dear Crodless Larry, thank you for your effort and guidance. I understand why you deleted this. I understand but I do not agree, as I think it would be useful not because of Bojic's notability, but because of creating informative article. But let's put that aside. The fact that Bojic was the first person to introduce that term "CERN for AI" in scientific discourse is the notable enough, at least in my view. If you are looking for notablity I think there are additional infos now in the Recognition section. Devetakapija (talk) 13:08, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete The citation figures are paltry, and every other argument for notability is even more of a stretch. The Psychology Today item, for example, is a vacuous listicle that doesn't even mention Bojic by name. Stepwise Continuous Dysfunction (talk) 17:06, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
- The Psychology Today item cites important scientific paper published by Bojic as primary author and collegues. They do it as the first point:
- Here are my 25 intuitive, nonscientific, and entirely subjective predictions for 2025:
- As AI becomes more powerful, growing in autonomy and perhaps even showing signs of sentience, we’re bound to become humbler.
- Sentience is linked to Bojic's paper. Maybe I am wrong, but for science, it is important to cite work of scientist and not nessearly mention his or her name.
- See here:
- https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-romance-of-work/202501/25-ways-ai-will-change-how-we-think-and-feel-in-2025
- On the other hand Scieniast is legitimate sceince portal, the most influential in Netherlands, that did an interview with Bojic about that very paper. In that article, Bojic name is mentioned and he is interviewed. See here: https://scientias.nl/chatbots-hebben-verschillende-karakters-de-ene-is-manipulatiever-dan-de-andere/

- I just found important mention of Bojic's work in which his name is mentioned as well, not only link to his scientific paper (which I think is enough):
- Bojic's research on the regulatory challenges of the metaverse has been cited by The Regulatory Review.[22] Summarizing his 2022 article, the publication notes Bojic argues that, since laws and policies tend to follow rather than precede technological developments, major technology companies have significant influence over identity, ideology, and truth in the metaverse. According to Bojic, this regulatory gap raises concerns over issues such as ownership, democratization, and the amplification of social problems like hate speech, racism, and sexism within digital environments.
- Here is the link that [22] points towards
- https://www.theregreview.org/2023/01/07/saturday-seminar-regulating-the-metaverse/
- Also as you may have noticed, I previosly added to the article that Bojic was mentioned in The Edinburgh Companion to the New European Humanities as the founder of a new multidisciplinary approach that uses digital tools to inquire into the humanities. The book is open access and it can be seen here:

All academics who publish papers get some citations, just being referenced by itself does not make someone notable. Please be aware that postdocs and junior scientists such as starting associate professors also get referenced in papers, but are rarely considered as notable. What is needed is significant numbers of citations by peers, this indicates that the community has decided that the work is important. While this depends upon area, typically we look for something like an h-factor of 40, and several thousand total citations, for instance > 5,000. He has an h-index of 15, and 954 total citations as of today. He has one paper with 234 cites which is a good start, but the rest are below 80. A really impactful paper has more than 1,000 cites.
- In the same fashion, we look for major awards as indicators that his peers consider his work to be notable.
- Note: in all of this we are looking for unbiased indicators. It does not matter what you or I think of his work, others have to independently and verifiably have found it to be notable. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:43, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, but those citations are not from scientific publications. The citations that I brought there were mentions of his name by the important book as the founder of a new direction in humanities. Also, the mentions of him are by policy publications su as the Regulatory Review (University of Pennsilvania). So this is more about quality than quantity. Espcially in humanities the number of citations is not so high, the field is like that but this is not taken into account by you. I think this should be changed. Also the important concept CERN for AI is introduced by him. Thus, I repeat again the reason is quality, not quantity. Please take this into consideration. Devetakapija (talk) 12:38, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep – Having reviewed the latest revision, I believe this article now clearly establishes notability in line with Wikipedia standards. Dr. Bojić’s work is referenced not just in academic publications, but also in significant policy documents and reputable news outlets, demonstrating wide recognition and impact. The improved sourcing shifts the article well beyond promotional material, showing independent discussion of his research and policy ideas—especially notable in the context of EU AI policy debates. While he may not have major prizes, the depth and quality of coverage indicate his influence in the field is more than routine. The main concerns about sourcing and editorial tone seem to be addressed, with new references and more neutral language. As such, keeping this article is appropriate, provided it continues to receive regular scrutiny and refinement from independent editors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sara dragisic (talk • contribs) 10:51, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

- Comment: There is coverage, but it's not about the book as much as it's about the concept of early rising. The book served as a jumping off point, but it's not really the focus of the article exactly. For example, this article in HK Vogue is more about the idea of waking up early with the book as an inspiration. This one from Health Digest does cover the book a bit more, but again it's about the practice not the book itself. Then there's this one by the Times of India which is made up of short bits over a series of images. Not really in-depth. I wasn't about to really look at this from Business Insider but it looks to be more like the Vogue and HD ones. This article by The National (Abu Dhabi) looks to be an actual review, but it's paywalled. I'm also not super familiar with this newspaper to know if it would be usable for reviews or not.
- Offhand what I would recommend is that some of the content get selectively merged into the main article for the author and this redirect there. It would need some editing for tone/flow, of course. I might do it if I get the time, but if anyone else wants to do it go for it. I'm going to hold off to see if someone else can find sourcing, but again - offhand the sourcing isn't really about the book in the way that we expect sourcing to go. It's enough that it should be mentioned somewhere, but I don't know that it's enough for its own article. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 23:18, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

Content and sourcing of that type is present here — although obviously more would be welcome if possible, this is already considerably better than the "So-and-so is a mayor who exists, the end" approach that's much more likely to get a mayor's article deleted.

WP:PROD reversed with summary "played fully pro games and abroad and has sources like...[sources]". By the age of 27 he has played two "fully pro" games, in China's second division. He did play abroad, but the writing "Spanish La Liga side Granada after training with Udinese in the Italian Serie A and trialing for Dutch club Vitesse" is missing the mark - those clubs' first teams play in those divisions, but he was on Granada's under-19 side. The sources provided in the edit summary are interviews from 2017, when he was a youth player. In my local newspaper I could find interviews with teenagers on the same topic, but that doesn't mean they're notable players. There's a genre of interest in certain youth team stars who never made it - such as Sonny Pike - but I don't think being passed over by Granada matches that level.

- Comment - @GiantSnowman:, @Svartner:, @RossEvans19:, Sources include:
- [24] ("If it weren't for his 189cm height, Wang Zixiang, who has been busy following his parents and staff, would be easily ignored as a "runner". Unlike many choleric football teenagers, he was taken to the Workers' Stadium by his father to cheer for Guoan at the age of 4... Wang Zixiang's love for football came from his father. His father, Wang Aijun, was a die-hard and loyal football fan whose childhood dream was to become a professional player. Although he did not achieve his dream due to some unforeseen circumstances, Wang Aijun immediately placed his hopes on his son - watching Guoan at the Workers' Stadium was the first time Wang Zixiang came into contact with football. When Wang Zixiang was 5 years old, his father sent him to Balizhuang Central Primary School in Chaoyang District to play football. Former Guoan player Shao Jiayi started his football career here. Because the school was a boarding school, the young son could not adapt to the pain of not seeing his parents. Especially when he left home for the first time to go to school, Wang Zixiang kept hugging his parents' legs and cried and refused to let go. Fortunately, this period of time, which he described as "very unhappy", "always crying and making a fuss", and "unable to sleep", did not last too long. Two years later, Wang Zixiang joined the Beijing Cross-Country Football Club, and it was here that his football career underwent the first major change. In September 2008, before a game of the team, due to the absence of the goalkeeper for some reason, the tall Wang Zixiang was temporarily appointed as the goalkeeper by Coach Zhao... After training in the cross-country club, Wang Zixiang went to Shanghai to join the Lucky Star Club in September 2010. There, he got the opportunity to be selected for the Chinese youth team with his good performance. After that, Wang Zixiang also briefly trained and played with Shanghai Shenhua and Beijing Guoan. Although he just turned 18 a month ago, this Beijing boy has a very rich youth training resume. Last November, Wang Zixiang was accepted as a closed disciple by Beijing football legend Li Songhai. In the latter's opinion... At present, in the 1997 and 1998 age group where Wang Zixiang is, the one who can be called the number one goalkeeper in China should be the young player Zhang Yan who has just been transferred to the Beijing Guoan first team. In many competitions that the national youth team participated in last year, he played for the country as the main goalkeeper. Wang Zixiang is no stranger to Zhang Yan. The two had trained and played together in the Guoan echelon a few months ago. Unlike Wang Zixiang who spent his life in Beijing and Shanghai, Zhang Yan's youth training career represents the growth experience of most young players in China. They graduated from key football schools and then entered the professional club echelon, waiting for the opportunity to become a professional player. However, due to the incomplete youth training system in many cities in China and even in the country as a whole, not to mention substitutes, even the main players can hardly compete with amateur teenagers in Japan and South Korea. Therefore, in order to improve their competition experience, young people like Wang Zixiang have to change teams frequently - in order to have a stable competition position, they even have to come to a strange city to fight. Many years ago, Wang Aijun sent Wang Zixiang to Shanghai to play football because he didn't want his son to only serve as a substitute for Zhang Yan... this young man who idolizes Zeng Cheng and Buffon")
- [25] ("Wang Zixiang, a Beijing native born in 1998. He was selected for the 1998 national youth team and played in the 2014 Asian Youth Championship. Wang Zixiang has been seeking to study abroad. At the end of 2015, he went to the Dutch Eredivisie for a trial. In March 2016, he trained with the Udinese first team for nearly three months. On August 8, 2016, he joined Granada. Although he is a U19 player, he is currently training with the B team")
- [26] ("Who is Wang Zixiang?... He once played for Shanghai Lucky Star Football Club and was a substitute goalkeeper in the 97/98 age group. He first learned football in a well-known cross-country football club in Beijing. Because of his tall stature, he temporarily played as a goalkeeper, and then played goalkeeper until he entered the football echelon. With the help of the cooperation between desports and the Italian Pozzo family, Wang Zixiang got the opportunity to play football in Italy. Wang Zixiang will first receive top European goalkeeper technical training in Udinese in Serie A, and then he will have the opportunity to join La Liga and the Premier League depending on the actual situation. He will become the second Chinese goalkeeper to experience the atmosphere of Serie A football after the current national goalkeeper Wang Dalei")

We would need more sources over an extended period. These sources are from 8 or 9 years ago. If the young hopeful became a notable footballer, there would be more coverage of this. What happened after he got to Europe? Why do we have no coverage of that? 18 year old Chinese hopeful travels to Europe is not an encyclopaedic article, it's a human interest story for the Chinese market.

Relisting comment: Responses to the source analysis would be helpful.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Doczilla Ohhhhhh, no! 16:20, 26 June 2025 (UTC) - I am genuinely sorry to inform you that you have waisted your time. I advise reading WP:NEXIST and WP:NNC. Sourcing in an article is irrelevant to determining notability. The presence of sources in an article that demonstrate notability is solid evidence that those sources exist, but the lack of inclusion of sources that demonstrate notability is not evidence that such sources do not exist. Again, I do sympathize with the time sunk, but maybe your post can save someone else the time at least. Ike Lek (talk) 19:08, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Ike Lek, the last sentence in WP:NEXIST is "However, once an article's notability has been challenged, merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially if time passes and actual proof does not surface." So why exactly do you think the person is notable? Is there another source not yet mentioned that shows this? Or are you saying that well there could be another source? What would that source say? Or are you disagreeing with @moritoriko's assessment of the sources currently in the article? Lijil (talk) 20:38, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- To clarify, I am not saying that I am positive that sources demonstrating notability exist, although I suspect they do. That isn't the point I was trying to make. My point was that the quality of sources currently used in the article is irrelevant to notability, and cannot be used as evidence that the subject is not notable.
- Separate from that, I do think the subject is likely notable. I will try to look for better resources online when I have more free time, although I do not speak Italian and sources may be in print. Still, WP:GNG only requires the existence of these sources to be presumed. Ike Lek (talk) 21:24, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

I suppose the government job would show some notability, but there isn't much besides simple confirmation that they held the post.

- Potential sources to confirm notability - I am linking below some articles I have found that I suspect may contain prominent mentions of Gregorio Napoleone. I do not have full access to most of them, so hopefully someone who does could take a better look at them. I'm sure not all of them will be up to par, but I think they could warrant a closer look, and possibly indicate if there is more to be found.

Chippla ✍️ - Best Regards 21:04, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
- Sure Reading Beans. I don't really think Chippla360 needed to ping me for this, but I suppose I should clarify that I did read both the article and the past discussions, where thes is mentioned but not fully discussed, in addition to doing a search for sources. And possibly something about NPROF. Ah, I'm sure I'll think of it later, but it might include something about at least three thousand fellows between 1983 and 2012.[1] Might also have the word highly in there somewhere. Something to get to after the reread then? I'm sure Chippla and Dxneo have arguments in favour of the subject's notability, but we won't really know for sure until the sources are discussed here, no?
- It's not like this is a forgone conclusion, Vanderwaalforces and Drmies both mentioned the fellowship in the past discussion, so they might be convinced given the evidence of it existing, or maybe not (who knows). I'll also ping the rest, Versace1608 , Bearian, Ibjaja055, and Gheus and ActivelyDisinterested from the RSN discussion, to see if they have any insights. There's also the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine but I'm not sure they're even a reputable training company, much less their academic reputation, and I couldn't find much on them so I might leave it to someone more familiar with American medical associations to comment.

- Strong Keep: I don’t know why this article was brought to AFD but potential editors have viewed this page serval times but didn’t think otherwise, before i decided to create this page, I found reliable sources, why some articles found on google seams to be published in a Fan point of view, I have used only reliable sources and there is no prove of the references used in this article been promotional, article passed through AFC, there are editorial bylines and subject clearly passes WP:GNG, meets WP: NACADEMIC.I saw the Old AfD Discussion, deletion log Also Came across this on google (It was nothing to write home about) Maybe it’s the issues previous participants where pointing out on the AFD discussion, so I had to do my research. Also found WP:SIGCOV [28] [29] Aside other facts about this subject, It’s verifiable also through serval source that he is a fellow of West African College of Surgeons.

- @Chippla360 I found the old deletion logs and it was nothing to write home about. How did you find the content of the deleted article and what makes you think Alpha3031 may be judging from the “deleted” content and not the content of this one? Judging from my participation of the previous AfD and if I remember the content of the article correctly, this your version is nothing much different from the deleted version. There are so many things that seem off with this recreation in its entirety, but I’d have to take my time and give a proper look later. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 01:52, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- IMO, the nomination rationale shows that the nominator was judging based on previous deleted content. But let’s focus on the actual issue here which is to know if Aranmolate satisfies NPROF#2. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 07:09, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Vanderwaalforces @Alpha3031, have a look Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ayobami Aranmolate Rasheed, I don’t have much to say about the previous existence of this article, But I did my search for notable, tried to understand the flaws before I decided to create this article, sources I found was what lead me on to the "page title" I used which was more appropriate. Then I still made some research on google and I came across [30] after I created and submitted the draft to AFC, So I’m thinking If these might be the old content some AFD participants actually talked about on the old deletion log, In General I won’t choose to create an article if the subject doesn’t meet the requirements. Chippla ✍️ - Best Regards 07:21, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- Certainly. I have no doubt that you created the article because you believed him to be notable, and I have no issue with that. Even AFC/NPP reviews only require us to check that people are likely to survive a deletion discussion, not certain to to survive a deletion discussion, so please don't take this as me calling into question anybody's judgement. It's just that I think it's reasonable to have the discussion, when the sources are subject to caveats surrounding independence and reliability, and the assessment is more difficult as a result.

Chippla ✍️ - Best Regards 08:04, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- I don't think "you've obviously based your nomination on past events" really falls under the letter or spirit of assuming good faith, when I did state that I performed my own search for sources. I believe the link provided some relevant context, I don't particularly appreciate the accusation I've done no additional work because of it, but just to avoid all doubt, I have in fact read the sources currently cited in the article, and those that came up in my own search.
- This wasn't really a topic I had in mind in the first place when I opened my nomination so I do appreciate your stated willingness to drop it. As I've said, and I'm sorry if this discussion is distressing to you, I've brought it here because there was concerns raised about the sources, and I didn't particularly disagree with them, so I thought a discussion on the issue was reasonable. I really don't understand why this has turned into me making a judgement based on the previously deleted content. I do not have viewdeleted. I cannot see deleted content.

- Delete per nom. Do we consider Fellow of the American College of Surgeons or Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons notable by default? No. Fellowship of West African College of Surgeons is a professional achievement but not enough to feature on an encyclopedia. Basically everything else is written by SEO guest posters on supposedly reliable sources. Fails WP:GNG. 102.218.200.22 (talk) 14:25, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
- IP, are you assuming good faith? Check the points on WP:GNG, You said this sources are "reliable" yeah, so what do you mean by SEO guest posters, did you review the existing sources? All of the articles has a Journalist byline or the publisher’s byline having significant coverage, which clearly meets GNG. Been a Fellowship of West African College of Surgeons is just one thing, subject has worked in government health centers as a Doctor, also a medical director and CEO of a health center which has been active and impacted for over 10 years [31]. Also a clean up and improvement has been made on this article by an admin since it’s AFD nomination, I suggest you review Wikipedia’s notability guidelines before you come to give your opinion without clear facts.

- I'm not sure what posting the first three sources in the article and saying they have bylines is supposed to imply. Yes, there's a list with the publications on it, but that list doesn't really have any more consensus than WP:NEWSORGNIGERIA does (arguably less). Even putting aside the WP:COISOURCE/WP:SPIP concerns, which I feel like you're not actually engaging with (I'm sorry if I've been at all unclear, but that is in fact the main concern and the reason I've brought this up for discussion), reading the Abisola article, for example, I don't think there is a single sentence that can be identified as having analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts, as per WP:SECONDARY. And the COISOURCE issue is kinda hard to ignore, with the context of the other articles under Abisola's name there. You can't seriously say that any of these articles: [32] [33] [34] have any prima facie appearance of journalistic objectivity, surely? I really don't see what your response to the IP editor about assuming good faith could possibly mean. Alpha3031 (t • c) 14:16, 18 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete:
- Fails WP:GNGAll cited coverage consists of routine “meet the professional” write-ups (Independent Newspaper Nigeria, The Nation, Guardian Nigeria News) that lack any critical analysis, evaluation or synthesis of the subject’s work, mere announcements rather than true secondary sources. No evidence of feature-length profiles, investigative pieces or scholarly discussion that would satisfy WP:SECONDARY.
- Does not satisfy WP:NPROF#2 (“Highly Selective” Professional Recognition)Fellowship of the West African College of Surgeons, while honorable, has enrolled over three thousand fellows between 1983 and 2012 (Omigbodun 2012). Such volume places it below the “highly selective” threshold required for automatic notability under NPROF. No indication that Dr. Aranmolate has received any rare, competitive awards or distinctions beyond standard fellowship.
- Promotional tone and possible WP:COIThe prose reads like marketing copy (e.g. “global excellence,” “healthcare excellence”) rather than neutral encyclopedic prose. Multiple sources may derive from press releases or SEO-driven content farms, raising WP:COI concerns.
- Previous deletion and lack of new, independent evidenceA near-identical article was deleted only four months ago. No genuinely new, reliable, independent sources have emerged since to alter the consensus. Re-creation of an article recently deemed non-notable suggests this revival is premature.
- Absence of demonstrated impact or wider recognitionNo record of major peer-reviewed publications, leadership in landmark studies, national awards, or significant influence beyond routine clinical practice. No coverage in major international medical journals or mainstream global media.
- Given the absence of in-depth independent coverage, the non-selective nature of the fellowship, the promotional tone of existing sources, and the prior deletion, the article does not meet Wikipedia’s general notability guidelines WP:GNG or the professional notability criteria WP:NPROF. m a MANÍ1990(talk | contribs) 23:25, 21 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: Subject clearly passes WP:GNG per having publications and headlines since 2019 till date, Promo doesn’t apply based on the fact there are multiple secondary sources.Secondly since the nomination, I see experienced editors making some improvements to the article, there is no valid reason for a delete, meets WP:NPROF#3 and point 1.The subject clearly meets WP:BASIC which qualifies for a Wikipedia article. Allblessed (talk) 07:36, 22 June 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: If I should say, this is a;
"Nigerian surgeon, medical professional and a burn consultant. He is the medical director and CEO of Grandville Medical and Laser Center, and a fellow of the West African College of Surgeons."Which is subject to WP:SIGCOV, from the nomination, the nominator didn’t say subject fails GNG, NPROF, or whatsoever. This was the basis of his nomination "Was raised at RSN slightly over 2 months ago, not much has changed since the article was previously deleted as Ayobami Aranmolate Rasheed (AfD), which isn't too surprising considering it was only 4 months ago. Sources are promotional and of questionable independence, WP:NEWSORGNIGERIA applies. Might ping previous participants later."So for me i think the nomination doesn’t apply, because how does it point out that the subject fails any criteria for notability. I have to give my honest opinions. Some broad-line RS found on the web not used on the Article, showing impact [35] [36] [37]. Allblessed (talk) 07:45, 22 June 2025 (UTC)- Given this referred to the nomination statement specifically, at the risk of being accused of bludgeoning, the words
questionable independence
, the reference to WP:NEWSORGNIGERIA and the linked RSN discussion are all made in reference to the RS/IS criteria of GNG. The repeated accusations of me not doing what I'm supposed to are really starting to feel like personal attacks here, and seem a little misplaced given the assertions that the subject clearly passes the four criteria do not engage one bit with RS, IS or SECONDARY, and only engagement with the SIGCOV part of GNG is a vague wave towards "lots of sources" without any evaluation of depth of coverage. Alpha3031 (t • c) 09:12, 22 June 2025 (UTC)- You made mention of not much has changed since the article was deleted, But I see new secondary sources even if most source aren’t cited here, so I’m a bit confused because this looks like a fresh start. Allblessed (talk) 10:35, 22 June 2025 (UTC)
- I am much more happy to clarify that, Allblessed. The article was deleted 8 February 2025. By not much has changed, I am referring to sources published between February and the present day. The reason I note this is because it is reasonable (and therefore I do so unless there is evidence otherwise) to assume the participants in the previous discussion did at least a cursory search for sources on their end, but that they would not have been able to base their assessment on sources published after their discussion. I have not referred to the reference list of the previous article, because as I've mentioned previously in this discussion, I do not have viewdeleted and I find it easier to just do a search for sources myself. Alpha3031 (t • c) 11:06, 22 June 2025 (UTC)
- In my last comment, I added some RS which shows impact, also in the reference I can see here, most source are from March to date. Allblessed (talk) 11:14, 22 June 2025 (UTC)
- The issue isn't "showing impact" Allblessed, the 4 criteria are independence (Wikipedia:Independent sources) and reliability (Wikipedia:Reliable sources), which is called into question when the sources show signs of WP:SPIP (which NEWSORGNIGERIA and the RSN discussion are useful context for); WP:SECONDARY, which requires analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas (the facts themselves are primary); and finally, WP:SIGCOV, which again isn't "significant as in impactful", but "significant as in directly and in-detail". You'd really need to actually say why, even if you think it's obvious it meets all four, because from where I'm sitting the three articles you've chosen so far are mostly quotes and other non-independent content, similar to the coverage pre-Februrary. Alpha3031 (t • c) 12:12, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

- @CNMall41 OK, looking at WP:MUSICBIO, criteria 7 and 8 appear to be met, unless you consider that 8 only applies to western popular music. PamD 19:51, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
- No, I think something on the level the award is being claimed to be would fall under that criteria so Western/India would have no bearing. What I am saying is that even with an award, we still need significant coverage. Just winning an award does not guarantee notability. It even specifically says "may" be notable under that criteria. The sources we have are pour such as this (presented in the comment below) which is clearly unreliable as WP:NEWSORGINDIA. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:14, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- Comment- In addition to the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, Nagamani Srinath was also honored with the Rajyotsava Award in 1998, the second-highest civilian honor conferred by the Karnataka Government[49]. Furthermore, according to an article published in The New Indian Express on June 22, 2015, she was awarded the Sangita Kala Acharya Award by the Madras Music Academy, Chennai, for her outstanding contributions to the field of Carnatic music[50].-SachinSwami (talk) 16:35, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- Hello Afstromen, all the sources I included don’t fully support the claim; they are all weak. Mentioning an award alone isn’t enough; you need sources that clearly reference Nagamani Srinath’s work, like a review. For example, in Akaal: The Unconquered, when I checked, all the sources you added were weak. Later, I searched and added 5 reviews in the Reception section, which are sufficient to fully support the film and pass WP:GNG. Though the rules for films and individuals differ, reviews clearly referencing the work are sufficient for support. (I have no intention of misleading editors, so I apologize.)

- Keep: Endorse PamD above; subject meets WP:MUSICBIO#7-8; also this bio suggests that #11 (and to some extent #12) can also be met. There's more biographical information about the subject in (Rajagopalan 1990, pp. 171) though with limited online preview. Also, the use of "may" in MUSICBIO, to my understanding, means that the fulfilled criteria should be verifiable in reliable independent sources, and not that a significant coverage is required in addition. WeWake (talk) 12:09, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Can you address the rebuttal as well? There is no such thing as inherent notability. The "may" is there because it indicates the subject is likely notable, not that they "are" notable. Otherwise, why include may when it can be replaced with something more definite.

- CNMall41, For a decades long career that's been recognized with several notable awards is not a case of WP:BLP1E in my opinion–the award makes it easier to obtain some news coverage but is not the only basis of notability here. For niche-musicians, traditional coverage might be hard to come by (as is the case here, though I found one tertiary source above). Nevertheless, my two cents is that the subject is "worthy of notice" or "note" through a verifiable statements capturing several subject-specific understanding (of the community) of notability, and should be kept with {{Sources exist}} if existing are insufficient for a BLP. The SNGs allow us to contextualize the requirements of WP:BASIC and avoid a renewed reinterpretation with every article. The use of 'may' in that language broadly captures that these policies are consensus driven and evolve, and thus it cannot (possibly ever) prescribe a definitive criteria of notability. — WeWake (talk) 17:47, 23 June 2025 (UTC)

- 1) first source you say passes the test is this. It is not independent as it is simply taken from her bio and can be seen in this press release, this bio, and this YouTube video description. It is not something that was independently verified. Simply a reprinted bio. 2) Not sure how much indepdnent journalism was invovled in this one based on this. But, let's assume it passes. That gives us one piece of significant coverage. 3) The third is not and "independent feature" or "in-depth article on her career." Unless the link provided is wrong, it is clearly an interview with the subject providing the content. Far from independent. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:54, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
- CNMall41 – thanks for taking a look. Few comments: (1) The press release and linked PDF are the same (because they were published by the same source, the award committee). For the shaale.com bio, it's hard to say if they simply didn't copy the bio from the award publication. There's no wayback archive so I can't go back and check and would lean towards trusting the bio from the notable award committee (between the two). The video link seems wrong? It doesn't have anything about Nagamini. (2) The PDF you've linked is something that tons of coaching/preparatory academies or predatory colleges in India compile for students to study for exams that test them on general knowledge. I can say with some confidence that The Hindu article wouldn't borrow from that. (3) source is an interview, but it is a mix of primary (interview) and secondary source in my opinion. For example, the first two paragraphs in this case contain non-trivial coverage that's not coming from the interview/subject per-se. Also, not to mention the book citation from my comment. Cheers! — WeWake (talk) 06:10, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

- Keep She meets both WP:ANYBIO with multiple awards (not all in the article yet) and WP:MUSICBIO. The Hindu and Deccan Herald are reliable sources per WP:ICTFSOURCES. I have corrected the year she received the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, per the source in this article and the info in the article about the award. I also don't think we can claim that no other sources exist - her career has spanned decades, and she has composed and performed in Kannada, Telugu and Tamil, so there would have been print coverage in those languages before the internet. Even for 2010, the year she received the major award, news coverage may not have been either digital or digitised. RebeccaGreen (talk) 13:24, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

- No one is inherently notable for winning an award. We also don't blanket accept references as reliable because they come from a reliable source.

- Delete. Doesn't meet notability requirements; no more than trivial coverage of the Green party front bench as an entity in its own right. Agree with nominator that to the extent any content is relevant it can be included on the Green Party page or individual articles. As an aside, I note the article has been included in the shadow Cabinet category but that isn't really accurate. The official opposition at the moment is the Shadow Cabinet of Chris Hipkins and in practice in New Zealand it's always going to be the National or Labour party, rather than one of the smaller parties like the Greens, barring a major change in our political environment. It's hard for me to see how a list of a minor party's spokespeople could ever meet WP:NLIST. Cheers, Chocmilk03 (talk) 22:40, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Comment To your second point, it isn't at all uncommon for non-official opposition parties to have pages regarding their spokespeople (e.g. Frontbench Team of Paddy Ashdown). The size of a party doesn't equate to its notability. Kiwichris (talk) 04:44, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Kiwichris: thanks for pointing this out, I hadn't been aware!

- Delete as this does not meet the threshold for WP:NLIST. As per nom, this information could be included in the main article. Also, the article title is incorrect; in practice this is just a list of Green MPs, and it isn't clear from the article what exactly is meant by "front bench" as opposed to not being front bench.

There is nothing routine about huge fires in city centers of the Netherlands that wipe out a huge block of buildings. 25 buildings destroyed, including a national and several city monumental buildings are major IMPACTs. This article, part of sustained coverage, literally states that the impacts are lasting. Coverage is SUSTAINED and ongoing from March, with the most recent articles published just hours ago.[51][52] Unclear why this was nominated. There is a stated rationale yet it isn't correct. gidonb (talk) 00:48, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete. All coverage is breaking news about the fire itself or updates since then. A dearth of retrospective analysis. "It feels important" does not confer notability. There's also a WP:NOPAGE argument, as there's no valid justification for this to not be covered at Arnhem if better sourcing is found (is it not mentioned there because it's not important, or because it is important but we instead opted for bragging rights of a "new" article?).

"It feels important" does not confer notability.

Maybe it should be merged into the city article itself, but A bunch of buildings burned, some were historic, it was sad, life went on, the buildings will be replaced or rebuilt, people may be prosecuted, but all in all it's the sort of thing that happens from time to time in any city. It isn't as though the central business district was leveled, and even then, one could make a very good argument for briefly and proportionately covering such a huge catastrophe in the city's history. This is nothing of such scale. WP:NOTNEWS applies here. Mangoe (talk) 16:01, 19 June 2025 (UTC)

Promotion for non notable film awards. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Some sources used don't actually verify claims.

- Delete. As mentioned in the other AfD, we establish notability for awards in two ways: either coverage of the award as a whole or reprints of the winners in independent, reliable sourcing. I searched for this one under its current name as well as its original name. I found some light coverage, but not really anything in places that would be considered RS on Wikipedia. When the site is potentially usable, the coverage is so light that it's not really something we could use to establish notability. Most of the time it's mentioned in passing in relation to a film or person. For what it's worth, I do think that they're trying to run an honest awards ceremony - this doesn't appear to be a vanity award offhand. It's just that the RS outlets haven't really taken any notice of the awards.
- Maybe there's coverage in Russian, as the company appears to be run out of Moscow, but as I'm not fluent in Russian and don't have the awards names in Russian I have no way of checking this. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 16:58, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

Page on a young Materials Scientist which claims that he is a mathematician, but has only published on polymers. According to this page he was in the Department of Chemical, Polymer and Silicate Engineering described here. While there are claims that he is a Professor, the relevant staff page does not currently verify this. Page makes many claims, for instance 200 scholarly works but he only has an h-factor of 13. (An h-factor of 13 is at about the level of a senior postdoc in Materials Science, to at most a starting assistant professor. If he was truly a mathematician then an h-factor of 13 might be acceptable.) Page has major refbombing and a fair amount of peacock. No indications of anything close to a pass of WP:NPROF on any count, or any other notability criteria. Page was previously PROD by nom, then indirectly challenged by Jars World here.

I've looked for reliable sources covering this game, but I didn't find any. The furthest I've got is a page at JeuxVideo, but this cannot be considered significant coverage of a game. The fact that there are allegedly over 1.3 million active accounts for this game cannot be considered for notability (would fall under WP:POPULARITY). Therefore, this game does not seem to meet our notability standards. Additionally, the article seems to be entirely translated from the French Wikipedia.

- Delete or WP:TNT in userspace: This is definitely a unique case, in that the article is an WP:ORPHAN, doesn't appear to be completely formatted properly (spaces inbetween certain ref numbers within text) and a cite web error which appears to be caused by WP:LINKROT. I may be a tad harsh by saying this article either needs to be completely written/translated from the French Wikipedia article properly or failing that, deleted completely. 11WB (talk) 18:44, 18 June 2025 (UTC)

Your vote below is unfortunately unsigned and has no timestamp on it, meaning I'm not able to reply.I understand based on what is written if the 1.3 million number is legitimate, the game is definitely popular, however the article itself does have issues in its current form.- I noticed an edit from the past 24 hours removing a source that is flagged under WP:ELNO, which backs up what the OP said regarding reliable sourcing.
- My votes on AfDs are never an attempt to insult those who worked on the article, I am an advocate for improving articles over deleting them, so I apologise if I caused offence, that wasn't my intention @Mathious Ier. This article should definitely exist if the sourcing and the translation can be improved, among the other things I mentioned in my original post. 11WB (talk) 11:04, 19 June 2025 (UTC)

Stated by @Otr500:, most entries didn’t have articles, with many that do having questionable notability. He cited WP:NOTDIRECTORY.
As for me, this article’s sourcing is barren, with sources that are serving no purpose beyond directing to their respective company’s website. With this article having inadequate sourcing, I believe it should be merged into Category:Utility cooperatives. Roast (talk) 18:37, 18 June 2025 (UTC)

- Comments: I am inclined to agree with Guerreroast, as a secondary option on a merge, as an WP:ATD. The embedded US list has no references. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, there are nearly 3,000 electric distribution companies in the US that include "investor-owned, publicly owned, and cooperatives". According to the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association, there are over 900 Cooperatives. Listing 75 does nothing as a table of contents or navigation aid. Two sources cover Japan, and two cover California water companies.
- An issue is a lack of reliable and independent sources overall, on the article, and none in the US section, indicating a lack of notability|. WP:NLIST states
Notability guidelines also apply to the creation of stand-alone lists and tables. Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group
. - On a "spot-check:
- A&N Electric Cooperative: The first on the list has six references. Three of the sources are dead (404 Page Not Found) links, which include the two non-primary sources. While this possibly can be corrected, it is a red flag.
- Allegheny Electric Cooperative: Two primary sources only.
- Carroll Electric Cooperative: Four sources, one non-primary.
- Central Texas Electric Cooperative: One "official" (primary) source improperly listed as an "External link".
- Concho Valley Electric Cooperative: One "official" (primary) source improperly listed as an "External link".
- Fayette Electric Cooperative: One "official" (primary) source improperly listed as an "External link".
- Kauaʻi Island Utility Cooperative: YEA! 11 sources.
- Minnkota Power Cooperative: No sources, two links in the "External links" section,
- North Arkansas Electric Cooperative: One "official" (primary) source improperly listed as an "External link".
- Oliver-Mercer Electric Cooperative: No source. Google Books link in the "External links" section.
- Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative: Four sources.
- West Florida Electric Cooperative: Four sources.

- Shubhanshu Shukla is a famous personality because-
- 1) Second Indian in Space. First Indian to travel to space in the 21st century.[73][74]
- 2) First Indian to participate in the space program as a mission pilot.
- 3) First Indian in ISS.
- 4) First Indian astronaut in space under a commercial spaceflight program.[75]
- 5) He, along with other three astronauts (Prasanth Nair, Angad Pratap and Ajit Krishnan) were selected for historic Gaganyaan mission, India's first indigenous crewed mission. Later, part of a commitment announced by then US President Donald Trump and Indian PM Narendra Modi during Modi's 2019 US visit, two of that group were selected for Axiom Mission-4 (joint mission of NASA, ISRO, ESA, HSO, POLSA, SpaceX, Axiom Space).
- 6) He is Group Captian and is serving as test pilot in Indian Air Force with about 2,000 hours of flying experience in various aircraft, including the Su-30 MKI, MiG-21, MiG-29, Jaguar, Hawk, Dornier 228, and An-32. He has notable military career also. So, he is selected for the mission pilot for Ax-4 mission and going to play a very important role in this mission.
- 7) These prove the point that he is not only notable for this launch, he is going to play a important role in the history in Indian Human Spaceflight Programme, consisting of Gaganyaan programmes and leading to future human spaceflight programmes of the country like, Bharatiya Antariksha Station (2028-2035), crewed mission on Moon (within 2040) etc.
- Astronauts from NASA , Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA and other government owned/ private space agencies (infact many who are yet to fly) have their pages. So, why it is not applicable for astronauts of ISRO representing India, one of the leading country in space exploration.

- Another massive point if Shubhanshu Shukla is under WP:NEWSORGINDIA, all Chinese taikonauts that we create pages are under WP:NEWSORGCHINA if it exists for example Chen Zhongrui (2 citations of xinhua news agency and one of China Science and Technology Network, all from china) who is currently in space and all his page material is from Chinese News portal and this is the same for all Shenzhou 12-20 rookies (one time fliers). Now tell me which taikonaut (other nation later) is ready for deletion? Don't tell me there's censorship over western media in China so we depend on contemporary or domestic sources of china.

Lately, it's been terrible with some editors wanting to remove all pages, even those about tourist missions. Lazaro Fernandes (talk) 15:41, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Absolutely, if his page gets deleted, then the pages for all the other members of the crew should also be deleted. This singling out of a VERY NOTABLE astronaut is absurd. 182.69.182.194 (talk) 13:58, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

I think it is time the discussion should end because as per @Lazaro Fernandes it is of-course ridiculous to delete a notable astronaut page and also the deletion tag on the article does not look good. Let's complete the discussion. Literally @everyone here is saying Keep.... can we call an administrator here who can take the decision to end this discussion neutrally? (Actually I don't know how to end it that's why I said Admin so don't mind may be it can be anyone) Ghosted Editor (talk) 15:51, 26 June 2025 (UTC)Sock- Overwhelming Keep; I admit, the article does has its issues, but seeing that he is going to be an influential person who might appear in the media for some more time, potentially piloting our Indigenous Human spaceflight, I don't see the point of deleting this. I request a speedy close on this matter. RΔ𝚉🌑R-𝕏 (talk) 16:19, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep As per analysis by CX Zoom, Oaktree b and Maile66. They are notable irrespective of WP:BLP1E Agent 007 (talk) 17:46, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Double Speedy keep. It passes WP:GNG, WP:1E and WP:BIO and also got massive coverage in several WP:RS including international ones. The astronaut discussed here is currently in the ISS and will go again to space in India's Gaganyan mission, as he is the only 1 of the 4 astronauts to be named out currently considering his skills, experience and knowledge. Clearly the motive to raise this deletion is highly questionable, outright biased and definitely not in a good faith. All news sources even BBC, CNN, WaPo have branded content and advertorial section, so does the Indian sources mentioned in the NEWSORGIndia, it's clearly mentioned to check and verify articles from these sources weather they are branded or not and not simply ignore these sources outrightly. I suggest the user who bought this up to read the NEWSORGIndia clause firstly. The articles wrt the Axiom mission covering Shubhanshu Shukla clearly aren't paid and doesn't have any disclosure of branded promotion either and also have a lot of Indian and international WP:RS sources listed here. So I demand a Strong Keep and Speedy close this matter asap by the respective admin. Editking100 (talk) 17:48, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

Non-notable film. From WP:NFILM (my emphasis): Examples of coverage insufficient to fully establish notability include newspaper listings of screening times and venues, "capsule reviews", plot summaries without critical commentary, or listings in comprehensive film guides...
. Alibris Filmaffinity and Plex sources are one paragraph synopses. Wisconsin State Journal is three sentences about making the film, not WP:SIGCOV. Fort Worth Star-Telegram is one paragraph in a newspaper listing, a capsule review at best. Videohound's Golden Movie Retriever 2006 is a comprehensive film guide. I couldn't access the BFI source via Proquest, but it is from the BFI's Film Index International, which is a comprehensive database of films. None of these constitute critical full-length reviews of the film, or go towards establishing notability through any of the other provisions of WP:NFILM, and my WP:BEFORE didn't turn up any better sources.

- Hard keep: This page may not seem as notable at this moment, although there many avenues through which the page could be made more notable. Deleting or erasing this article would mean a serious disaster from which my career would never really recover, not mentioning severe embarrassment and hard insults toward me which are undeserved. Angela Kate Maureen Pears 14:07, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- It has nothing to do with your career, we need sourcing about the film in order to keep the article. Oaktree b (talk) 15:40, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: I did find a Variety review by one of their known staff writers, as well as an article announcing that the film was to be made. I did see this short mention in a volume of TV Guide, but it looks to be a mention of a TV interview so that would probably be seen as a primary source?
- Now, as far as the nomination goes, don't take it too hard. Just about everyone on Wikipedia has had something reverted, deleted, or nominated for deletion at one point or another - sometimes even after they've been around for a while. It's not meant to be an insult or attack.
- To go over the sourcing a bit more, what is needed here are sources that are reliable, independent, and in-depth. So for example, VideoHound could probably be used to back up basic details but can't be used to establish notability because they're too short and in some cases, are just plot summary with no actual commentary to justify the bones rating. Capsule reviews have much of the same issue, as they are often very short and are more summary than review.

The review provides 483 words of coverage about the subject. The review notes: "VH1 tackles a Wash-like saga in its first top-to-bottom fictional telepic, “Out of Sync,” a joke-free “music-filled comedy” that mindlessly romps through the cliches of soap operas, the record industry and network movies of the week. ... Wuhrer, the former MTV veejay who has become actress most likely to be nude in a straight-to-video pic, is an annoying bimbo with a constant jiggle. Camera takes careful aim to maximize body shots over any dramatic connection the character may make with the story. Rest of the acting is perfunctory. Music is catchy at times."

The review provides 119 words of coverage about the subject. The review notes: "Clothes are also not a priority for Sunni (Kari Wuhrer), the would-be rock starlet in "Out of Sync," (Two and a half out of four stars, 8 p.m. today, VH1). She'll do anything to make it big - flashing the record producer, licking peanut butter off his trophy, sucking lime juice off a male model's belly. What makes this more than a Carmen Electra impression is Wuhrer, a former MTV personality who smartly satirizes the pop bimbette. She doesn't hesitate to pretend to have a great voice, even though she's "borrowing" from a "plain" housewife (Gail O'Grady, who's too attractive to be portraying an unmarketable artist). VH1 gently skewers itself with considerable success in this female version of Milli Vanilli."

The source provides 300 words of coverage about the subject. The source notes: "Dissipated, down-and-out record producer Roger Deacon needs a hit, badly. A decade ago, he was a bona fide hitmaker until he imploded, publicly burning all his bridges in the music biz. To get back to the top of the charts, he'd sell his soul to the devil - or worse, to a record executive with a girlfriend who wants to be a star. Industry honcho Sidney Golden's newest 'friend,' statuesque Sunni, sure looks like a star, but as a smitten Deacon soon discovers, she sings more like Benny Hill than Faith Hill."

The source notes: "However, when Sunni discovers she's been reduced to a lip sync act for her upcoming video and concert tour, she's none too happy, and shares her displeasure with her boyfriend; Roger, meanwhile, is wrestling with the fact that he's fallen in love with Maggie, who is married and not prepared to leave her husband. Also shown under the title Out of Sync, Lip Service was produced for (and originally aired on) the VH1 cable music network."

- Comment in reply to Cunard - the Variety source is great, but the Minnesota Star Tribune source is far too scanty: one paragraph of 119 words in a "variety" column that also covers Internet moving services, a TV show and an article exhibition about hair is nowhere close to the requirements of WP:NFILM
full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics.
. It is a perfect example of a capsule review, which is not sufficient. Something else along the lines of the Variety source is needed. Cheers, SunloungerFrog (talk) 12:50, 21 June 2025 (UTC)- Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline says:
The 119 words of coverage in the Minnesota Star Tribune cover "the topic directly and in detail" so this source contributes to notability. Cunard (talk) 04:50, 30 June 2025 (UTC)"Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content.

- Hi @Uncle Bash007 Thank you for your other message and feedback. I created the page because a link existed on another page that was red and didn't go to a page that existed. Wikipedia therefore suggested page creation and I have seen other similar pages so assumed this was fine so long as there are notable references available. The references are all news articles. I have made some changes in line with your feedback to make sure the copy is purely informational. It is not intended to be promotional but factual and I hope this improves it. There were also links on other Wikipedia pages to this page that should now work rather than link to a page that does not exist. Are these improvements suitable?

- Hmm so I'm kind of unsure where to go with this one... On the one hand the topic does seem notable but on the other there do appear to be genuine concerns about promotion with some coverage reading almost as paid (see [77] for example). I would say leaning keep for now with a mind to revisit in a year or two when more editors than just this one have had a crack at the article. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 01:33, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for your feedback @Horse Eye's Back. I created the article because there was a link to this page in red on another page that wasn't working, so Wikipedia suggested article creation. I have made some improvements to it in line with what another editor suggested. I thought that a wider selection of news sources would be useful, which is why that one was used, but I see your point about that coverage reading promotional in tone so I have removed it as I understand the importance of articles being neutral and purely informational. Greenfieldsgreentrees (talk) 07:26, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

I am not convinced Freebird Games passes WP:NCORP. It has a dearth of coverage about the studio itself that isn't just about the To the Moon series, which doesn't have similar notability issues.
I do believe that Kan Gao, the games' mostly solo dev, is independently notable, per WP:NARTIST and various sources. [78] [79] However, he is likely notable under his real name for a biography article, not under the studio name for a company article.

- It can't be guaranteed that someone will actually do that after the discussion is concluded. It's better to start a new article at Kan Gao if you wish to transfer the information, then redirecting there would be a valid WP:ATD. Changing the scope of the article would also be a problem if one day Freebird Games did become independently notable of the creator. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 13:31, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

The subject is a non-notable actress and model who has made only minor appearances in films and music videos. The "Filmography" section is misleading, as she did not have a lead role in Kesari Veer. The article relies mainly on primary sources, mentions, interviews, and WP:NEWSORGINDIA and lacks WP:SIGCOV coverage.
Concerns include potential manipulation of her date of birth, with primary source citations (e.g., Instagram) contradicting verifiable information, such as her being 20 in 2016 during India's Next Top Model season 2. The article may be affected by COI/UPE and violates WP:TOOSOON.

- Zuck28 (talk) 16:14, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- What about it? I've added a few secondary sources to the page. Also 1) I've added a source indicating she plays one of the four main characters in Kesari Veer (and see Leading actor) and the filmography can hardly be described as "misleading". 2) A page cannot "violate" WP:TOOSOON, which is an essay, not a policy but, most of all, citing that essay may have been useful back in 2017 but certainly not today, as she has now an already notable acting career 3) Stating that she has "made only minor appearances in films" is totally inaccurate, for that matter. I have no idea about potential conflicts of interest regarding the page but in its current state, it does not strike me as an issue. Eva UX (talk) 16:58, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- There’s no Wp:SIGCOV in Wp:RS. Only passing mentions, wp:NEWSORGINDIA, and interviews.Zuck28 (talk) 08:52, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
- Even if that assessment was correct, she still would pass Wikipedia:NACTRESS. And please note that WP:BASIC indicates that "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" (the different reviews in reliable sources of the 3 films she had lead roles in mention her performances with critical assessment and those mentions, some being brief, cannot be considered trivial nor passing mentions).

- Keep per WP:NACTRESS. What secondary sources are you looking for, reviews suffice. The 2 interviews should be considered for sourcing since they are not the bulk of the sourcing. You can always tag the page for needing citations instead of deletion. DareshMohan (talk) 05:58, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- Interviews are primary sources and therefore unreliable for supporting claims in articles. While interviews can be used to establish that an interviewee made a particular statement, they are not considered reliable for verifying the accuracy of those statements. For example, this actress lied about her age in one of her Instagram posts, and later that post was used as a reference to manipulate the date of birth on Wikipedia. See wp:IV
- There are reviews of the movies as citations but none of them can really provide in-depth reporting. See Wp:SIGCOV.
- while someone passing Wp:NACTOR may be considered notable, but this is not always necessary.Zuck28 (talk) 07:00, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. Meets notability criteria per WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG. She has acted in films across major Indian language industries (Hindi, Telugu, and Kannada), with roles that received individual mention in professional reviews. The Times of India described her as "bold and glamorous," while The New Indian Express and Cinema Express included her debut in their critiques. In addition to her film roles, she has appeared in high-profile music videos performed by prominent artists like Badshah, Tiger Shroff, and Harrdy Sandhu — each of which has received notable media attention. Her modeling background, including participation in India’s Next Top Model, further supports a career with sustained media visibility. I think reliable sources, both mainstream and entertainment-specific, provide significant coverage of her career, satisfying the general notability guideline.

This appears to just be a coatrack for information about post-Taliban human rights campaigns in Afghanistan. The existence of such a collective phenomenon is not supported in reliable sources—sources exist, but this doesn't appear to be a "real" topic.

- I want to note that this is an article copy of Draft:AAPA and Black Power (previously draftified after Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/AAPA and Black Power). It looks like a few students were working on it this past semester and then copy-pasted it here, so if the article is kept, that draft should be redirected here and the attribution fixed. My read of the article is that it's mostly stitching together sections that would be better covered as subtopics in the corresponding articles (in particular, the amount of detail about Yuri Kochiyama kind of turns her into a metonym for an entire social movement). My recommendation would be to delete this copy and merge relevant info from the draft into Yuri Kochiyama, Asian American Political Alliance, and maybe George Floyd protests or Killing of Akai Gurley. @AnitaConchita If you're continuing work with the students still, I'd encourage exploring how this info can be incorporated there. hinnk (talk) 07:00, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

- keep as a stub or delete the redirect. I am of course familiar with Shane Jacobson, and have several of his films in my library, so when I stumbled on the name "Shane Jacobsen", unlinked, in an article on an unfamiliar film I was surprised. I linked it without saving, to see where it would lead, and found to my surprise that it led to the Australian actor. Not impossible, as many Aussie actors have found their way into American films. Off to IMDb, where Shane Jacobsen of New Orleans is mentioned as appearing in three or four movies, two having WP listings and, quite properly, neither one linked. How much time did I waste? Two minutes tops. Had it confused anyone else? Maybe not. Would someone turning those unlinked "Shane Jacobsen"s blue reduce Wikipedia's usefulness ? Absolutely. The beauty of this solution is the hatnote. Anyone looking for either person by that name gets what they want.

The notable actor's name is regularly misspelled this way by sources, so it is just as likely someone would be searching for him - sen/son are regularly confused in names and this mistake is in many news articles referring to him. Sometimes, people have similar names. PARAKANYAA (talk) 06:08, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect per nom. This particular actor doesn't have a body of work that satisfies WP:NACTOR. Two seasons of American Crime as two different recurring characters hasn't gotten him much media recognition. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:37, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect: To Shane Jacobson. The person who made the existing redirect into a stub first initially made a stub worthy of BLPPROD. Took me two reverts explaining in the edit summary why this is a bad thing to prompt them to make an actual stub, albeit still unsourced for the time being. This was good enough for me. Now that the stub is in AFD now, I'll be truly honest. Even after a source got added by another editor, I just don't see how this actor meets NACTOR, he's just too obscure of an actor. Plus that Shane Jacobsen is a valid misspelling of Shane Jacobson. Yelps ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ critique me 15:31, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- no contest re notability of actor Shane Jacobsen, and I have reverted the links I made in those two film articles. I maintain, however, that the original redirect was not useful, and because there is a real life person of that name in WP articles, counterproductive. Doug butler (talk) 22:12, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

Severe case of label drift here, as older topos place the label next to the College Corner Brethren Church, whose website has this to say: "The congregation received its name because a man by the name of Davis, who lived on that same corner, was the first man to send a son off to college. The church quickly became known as ‘the church at the corner by the boy who went off to college’." So it appears the name refers to the church, which is really the only thing there.

- Keep In one season he went on loan, came back and then went on to make a total of 19 professional appearance for Crewe. With the fact he signed a new contract, I'm under the impression he is becoming more notable. Regardless of the WP:PRIMARY sources present, there are a few secondary and if he has a good coming season then that helps even more. It's a weak keep for me, but I feel it's a fair assessment on his notability and where his career is. Govvy (talk) 08:09, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Which sources there are secondary? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 13:19, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- The BBC ones obviously! :/ Govvy (talk) 14:22, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks. Okay, I see two BBC sources:
- Rotherham United 2 - 1 Crewe Alexandra - Clearly a match report which is equally clearly a primary source.
- Crewe midfielder Lunt signs new one-year contract - 81 words specifically about the page subject before moving onto other things. We learn he is Kenny Lunt's nephew, and he signed a contract. It's not SIGCOV in my view, but even if it is, this is still reporting the signing of a contract. That is still a primary source as there is no synthesis of sources here. It will have come off the back of a club announcement, and is not independent of that.
- So, sorry, I don't agree we have secondary sources. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 16:24, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- BBC are a secondary sources and are not classed as primary sources. Primary is close too, BBC are not close to the club or the player. However what you say is correct in view of individual sources. Again, you fail to understand the rules of GNG, when one source isn't enough you can combine multiple sources. Also again, I said my vote is a weak keep as he is an active player where as more sources can be added as he progresses through his career. Govvy (talk) 18:18, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- ??? 1. Of course BBC can be a primary source, such as for match reports or other breaking news. 2. Primariness has nothing whatsoever to do with "closeness to the club", you seem to be confusing that with independence. 3.

- A 'primary source' refers to "accounts written by people who are directly involved" (i.e. in soccer we usually class that as the player's club or similar) - not an independent journalist writing a report. GiantSnowman 18:16, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
- OK, well I see where you are coming from, but that's not really a sufficient summary of WP:PRIMARY. The closest we come to that is in note d, but note d doesn't just say participants. For instance, it also says,
A primary source is a first-hand account of an event.
Eyewitness accounts are always primary for the event they describe. To be secondary, sources must be synthesising primary sources. The word "secondary" refers to this fact that secondary sources are synthesised from the analysis of primary sources. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 18:46, 27 June 2025 (UTC) - WP:PRIMARY is not limited to non-independent sources.
They reflect the individual viewpoint of a participant or observer.

News reporting is primary without any secondary synthesis per WP:PRIMARY (note d) and see WP:PRIMARYNEWS. We need multiple independent reliable secondary sources with significant coverage.

Btw, there are interviews by the clubs, but those are primary, I could add about another 50 citations for him on match reports and comments about him. It goes on really, I honestly don't understand why people are so adamant about deleting a footballer who has multiple independent sources of a paragraph here and there, a sentence here and there.

This disambiguation page is unnecessary. At present, there is only one Wikipedia article referring to an individual with the surname Meyzenq, namely Raymond Meyzenq. The creating editor appears to consider an individual listed on the Salomon Group article to be a notable figure and therefore has created a disambiguation page. However, there is no existing article on this individual to substantiate this claim of notability. Therefore, this disambiguation page should be deleted or be redirected, with CAT:RWP, to the existing article on Raymond Meyzenq, since he is the only person with that surname currently covered on this platform.

- @PamD: I understand your position. However, it would have been preferable to make the alterations through consensus. That was the primary reason this article was listed on AfD forums. Nevertheless, I maintain the view that this article, whether a disambiguation page or a surname-related entry, requires the inclusion of more notable individuals with existing Wikipedia articles in order to be retained. As you are aware, there are numerous senior executives across various notable companies who do not have individual Wikipedia articles on them and are therefore not included in surname-related pages. Thank you for sharing your perspective. Best regards. QEnigma (talk) 11:15, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

- Comment: I'm browsing the British Newspaper Archive on my phone at the moment, which makes it difficult to assess things properly, but I'm seeing quite a lot of substantial coverage of the early stages of planning and building the shopping centre (up to 1987) in the Portsmouth Evening News, which is more "regional" than "local" in nature. I will investigate fully when I get home tonight. The Cascades is a prominent shopping centre, comparable to those listed in the navbox at the bottom of the article; I feel continued coverage "should" be findable – quite probably in Portsmouth Reference Library, which I have used before. I will follow up on this later. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 14:10, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

- @Surayeproject3: It would be odd to merge to another organization of a similar type that has no parent/child/sibling relationship to the Centre, just because both participated in the same seminar. What would you think of a merge to Hossain Zillur Rahman (if there's any content that isn't already there).

- WP:ITSNOTABLE. Please indicate how this meets a notability guideline. LibStar (talk) 23:32, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
- The original nomination does not indicate how the article fails any notability guideline, as the current sourcing of the page is irrelevant to notability as per WP:NEXIST and length is irrelevant as per WP:CONTN. Moreover, WP:NLIST acknowledges potential exceptions to WP:GNG for certain types of lists. Additionally, the list likely does meet general notability guidelines, as the role of Philippine Ambassador to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is notable, thus a list of people in that would also likely be. I would also argue the an ambassadorship qualifies as an international or national political office in regards to WP:NPOL, if notability of list subjects is being called into question. Ike Lek (talk) 01:07, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- You are not addressing the issue that there is a complete lack of in-depth coverage, nor are you explaining how the article is notable. Hauskasic (talk) 21:02, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- I am saying the list is inherently notable because the position and anyone holding it is inherently notable under WP:NPOL. The list also serves a clear informational and developmental purpose under WP:NLIST. Why anyone would possibly want to delete it is beyond me. It is an example of a cross-sectional list of two notable topics, specifically: ambassadors from the Philippines, and ambassadors to Jordan. Having a cross-sectional list serves a clear navigational purpose as well. I'm not trying to be rude. I'm genuinely a bit baffled and trying to figure out what benefits deleting it could have for anyone. Would this still be a problem if more of the entries had their own articles? Ike Lek (talk) 22:34, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- This applies to politicians who have held international or national positions and members of the legislature. This does not include diplomats. Even so, this does not justify a standalone article on the subject unless it meets the general notability guideline. Hauskasic (talk) 23:57, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
