There is no claim to notability per WP:NCORP in the article, and a WP:BEFORE search failed to find any sourcing that meets WP:CORPDEPTH. Interviews with the founders, press releases, sponsored content, and run-of-the-mill announcements about funding and other everyday activities do not show how the company is notable. bonadea contributions talk 17:33, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep – The article now satisfies WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. Reliable and independent sources such as Forbes, Entrepreneur, TechCrunch, Axios, and Computerworld offer in-depth coverage beyond routine funding reports or press releases. The company has demonstrable industry significance within enterprise conversational AI, supported by multiple non-trivial third-party analyses. SanneMonte (talk) 14:22, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I do not consider Entrepreneur a suitable RS for NCORP per the September 2020 RFC, but it's a CORPROUTINE announcement regardless. No evidence that the 2025 Gartner report is anything beyond a passing mention, and based on previous versions of the same report I'm fairly sure it is, although I don't currently have a subscription. I think HighKing had a Gartner subscription though, based on comments from a couple of years ago, not sure if that's still the case. (If it is and unlike what I think it goes beyond the trivial mention, pretty please may I get the bit that covers Leena sent to me somehow thanks. There's also the Hype Cycle for Generative AI one, I think.) TechCrunch is WP:TECHCRUNCH of course. Overall my assessment is in the negative. Alpha3031 (tc) 09:24, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is a company therefore GNG/WP:NCORP requires at least two deep or significant sources witHaven't seen sources from forbes though some editors mentioned them above. h each source containing "Independent Content" showing in-depth information *on the company*. "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.
There are no sources available that meet the criteria for establishing notability. HighKing++ 19:07, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Reviewing the available sourcing suggests this does not satisfy NCORP as various editors have noted above. The articles from TechCrunch and Entrepreneur rely heavily on info provided by LeenaAI executives and lack independence in my view. With Entrepreneur India it is difficult to tell if the two articles (from the same author as noted above) are independent or paid pieces per WP:NEWSORGINDIA. The article from Business Standard is in the sponsored section and definitely cannot be used for notability. Can't assess the pieces from gartner or axios. The sources I have identified in Forbes are contributor pieces and being self-published are not helpful for establishing notability here. Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 18:03, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

Fails WP:NCORP, WP:NSOFTWARE, and/or WP:NWEB due to lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. Cited Newsweek article (ref 6) is clearly marked as a "sponsor" post and the Forbes contributor article (ref 10) is unreliable as a self-published source per WP:FORBESCON. The Mashable article (refs 2 and 11) lists this website as one of "10 excellent platforms for building mobile apps".

As far as French-language coverage cited in the article, I am seeing the same reliabilty issues with those sources. For example, the Nice-Matin article (ref 1) is labelled as "sponsored by Bpifrance" (sponsorisé par Bpifrance); coincidentally, Bpifrance.fr is cited in ref 3.

The article has a lot of routine and promo coverage that doesn't justify notability, with some minor achievements like "entered number 88 at Nigeria TurnTable Top 100" or "ranked on NXT Emerging Top Artistes". It has been already deleted a year ago https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Eli_Jae and has been recently recreated still without notability WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG in this article or other online sources.

  • Delete article is sourced to unreliable media. See WP:NEWSORGNIGERIA and the issue of brown envelope journalism. Fails WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 13:09, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – He has had a record that has charted in a national music chart. TurnTable Top 100 (Nigeria)] — is a recognized national chart that aggregates official streaming, airplay, and sales data, similar in standing to Billboard charts in other countries. Coverage and chart data are verifiable through reliable independent sources such as TurnTable Charts, Pulse Nigeria, Vanguard.

In addition to chart success, the artist has received independent media coverage in reputable music outlets and industry platforms, further demonstrating cultural and professional significance beyond routine mentions.

Therefore, the article clearly satisfies Wikipedia’s general notability guidelines WP:GNG and music-specific criteria WP:MUSICBIO, and should be kept. Vector diehard (talk) 12:44, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - While Eli Jae is a real artist with releases and some recognition, the Wikipedia article as it stands does not clearly satisfy the general notability guidelines (WP:GNG) for biographies of artists: there’s insufficient independent reliable coverage to establish broad encyclopaedic significance. The article is better suited for merging or redirecting with improved sourcing than retaining as-is. Unless more substantial independent coverage can be found and added, deletion is the appropriate step. Herinalian (talk) 04:36, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This article does not clearly show that the topic is encyclopedic, and it is unclear if it would ever come to be more than an essay-like not very noteworthy article.

    Well, it seems like it is a bit more established, but we should perhaps look into it as well. It seems like there is a lot of original research going on there; perhaps it should at least be trimmed to a significant extent. BlockArranger (talk) 23:36, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Nominally, I do not think there is much grounds for deletion, but this is an awful article. I am trying to read it but half the time the link between the topic of the article and the actual content is obscure. For example, the section The designing of Dolly - A clone and a hybrid? is such a weird metaphorical mess where I don't know what the point of it is. This article seems like a WP:TNT situation. I would rather have a gap in knowledge briefly for an editor to write a better, more encyclopedic article on the topic than be stuck with this for another 14 years. ✶Quxyz✶ (talk) 23:09, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    You may have noted that the article specifically states that "the term hybrid institution is not yet well-established or clearly defined in academic literature". If you refer to WP:REFERS, articles are mostly about actual types of objects or phenomena rather than about terms themselves; thus, articles should not take a term and discuss what exactly it may refer to; but rather, discuss the thing that the title is presupposed to refer to, possibly with disambiguation available in the hatnote. Here, however, the article is not even clear on its topic. I think that if it is still the case that the term is not well-defined and that it is not established, I do not think we should include is as WP:NOTABLE unless the possibly ongoing debates about the term are themselves notable. BlockArranger (talk) 23:31, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I think those issues are more the article being poorly written than the actual topic being bad. I'm not going to go through around forty scientific papers but I am going to assume at least three discuss the topic in detail (though it wouldn't surprise me if that wasn't even true), which means it should pass WP:GNG or should be merged with hybrid organization. ✶Quxyz✶ (talk) 23:52, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The problem is, however, that this article seems to be broader in scope than the one you propose it to be merged into. However, I do admit that it is rather unclear as neither one is particularly well-written. BlockArranger (talk) 00:03, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not clear if WP:NORG has been established and there are also some potential WP:COI concerns here. Amigao (talk) 20:28, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Amigao, I'm bit confused on the concern, could you specify where are the concerns? We can add more resources and information to the page if needed. I don't see the reason to delete it based only on these 2 assumptions that there's no justification behind (at least on this conversation).
Cheers Francjp (talk) 11:05, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
When searching "OpenNebula Systems" I found zero references that show up in Newspapers.com. Notability is not about size or relevance. Notability comes from significant coverage in reliable soruces. The relevant guideline here is WP:NCORP and the references need to meet WP:CORPDEPTH. Nothing I find meets that criteria. It is the same criteria applied to other pages but sometimes things exist that shouldn't (see WP:OTHERSTUFF which is an argument to avoid in deletion discussions). --CNMall41 (talk) 12:11, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the feedback. I want to clarify that my intention is not to invoke WP:OTHERSTUFF, and I apologize if my earlier comment suggested that.
What I am still trying to understand is whether improving the article by:
  • Removing promotional language
  • Excluding press-release based sources
  • Adding higher-quality independent references
Would be considered relevant to the discussion. If improvements to neutrality and sourcing are not being taken into account, the rationale for deletion feels somewhat subjective to me, so I’d appreciate clarification on that point.
Regarding sources: I have found coverage through Google Search and Google News for “OpenNebula Systems,” and there are two mentions in Newspapers.com (which I cannot access due to the paywall). Some of the Google News results are not press-release syndications, and outlets like Ars Technica and The Register appear to have independent reporting. I understand the concerns about churnalism and the requirements of WP:NCORP, but I believe there are at least some sources that may qualify as independent and significant coverage.
Since the article has existed for more than 10 years with very few edits, I am trying to understand what new information or criteria prompted the nomination now. If appropriate, I would also appreciate guidance on how other companies in the same space have met notability requirements so I can better evaluate whether comparable sources exist for this topic. Francjp (talk) 15:55, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Promotional language is largely irrelevant to this discussion; the problem is that none of the sources that you have proposed satisfy the strict criteria in WP:NCORP. For example, the Ars Technica and The Register sources mainly cover the product, not the company. The essay Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not Crunchbase may be useful to read for a more detailed explanation of the notability criteria.
There are millions of articles on Wikipedia, so it is very easy for non-notable articles to fly under the radar for decades before someone stumbles upon them. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 19:22, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, thanks for your comments and clarifications. As I’ve mentioned before, my purpose here is to clarify and try to solve this situation.
For independent and reliable sources, as mentioned earlier, there are reference articles from the European Union and the Spanish Government, which can be considered neutral and trustworthy.
We have these:
Could you please let me know if this satisfies notability and neutrality of sources? Francjp (talk) 16:18, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
These sources do not count towards the WP:NCORP notability standard, since none of them are independent of the company. It does not matter whether the company is a part of impactful projects and organizations. The only thing that WP:NCORP cares about is whether reliable sources who are completely unaffiliated with the company have chosen to write about it in detail without relying on company announcements or routine business reporting.

Does not meet WP:BIO. Almost all of the sources serve just to document specific pieces of information and don't mention Mr. Divine at all or only briefly. Most of the personal information about him is not sourced at all, or only a source that is associated with him(like his company website). The information about his language skills is sourced to the people who educated him- just documentation that provides no information(as one example)

It is entirely possible that the Reconnect organization/movement he founded is notable, or even his films(like the one selected by film festivals that merit articles). But when the unsourced information and information about his movement is stripped out, not much is left other than the fact he hangs out with celebrities who support his movement, but notability is not inherited by association(and, again, would be more relevant to his movement than him personally). Some sources are interviews and thus not independent.

This draft was created by an account by the name Cdlosangeles; the Cd strongly implies they are Mr. Divine themselves. They have denied this, but given what they wrote and their comments(most of which are AI written), I still believe it may be. 331dot (talk) 19:15, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Evidence of Reliable Independent Coverage
    Below is a selection of independent secondary sources with significant coverage of Cliff Divine or his work. This list includes more than thirty television news segments across major US networks where he is clearly identified on air.
    Television Coverage (Independent Broadcast Sources)
    ABC7 News San Francisco
    ABC Action News Florida
    ABC News Orlando
    CBS Orlando
    CBS Pittsburgh
    NBC Sioux Falls
    NBC Orlando
    KUTV 2 Utah
    KHON2 Hawaii

    And many others
    These are full broadcast news reports featuring him as the central on-screen subject.
    Print and Online Coverage (Independent Secondary Sources)
    Orlando Sentinel
    Local and regional US newspapers
    International press outlets
    Film festival programs and award announcements

Thank you for reviewing the article. I would like to clarify several points, because some of the comments above include assumptions that do not match the facts.
1. Cliff Divine and Andrew Cliff Tisba are the same person.
This can be verified through interviews, festival materials, and nonprofit records. Since both names refer to the same individual, all references to him under either name are valid for establishing notability. Several news pieces refer to him as Cliff Divine while others refer to him by his birth name, and they all point to the same person.
2. The article includes many independent reliable secondary sources that focus directly on Mr. Divine.
There is coverage from ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, Orlando Sentinel, KHON2, KTVB, KUTV, Q2 Billings, and international outlets. These are not small mentions. They are full news stories where he appears as the central subject. Film festivals and award committees have also published coverage that includes him in a principal role.
3. A link has been provided that contains more than thirty television news segments from major networks where Cliff Divine is clearly identified by name on air.
These are verified broadcasts, publicly aired, and independent of him. This constitutes significant coverage by reliable independent sources under WP:BIO.
4. The majority of the sources are fully independent journalism.
These materials come from established newsrooms that operate with editorial oversight. They are not self published and not produced or controlled by the subject. They satisfy the independence and reliability standards required for a biographical article.
5. Notability is supported by coverage of his acting awards and his public work.
He has been recognized at film festivals, appears in national and international news stories, and is repeatedly covered for his multistate public initiative. This meets the definition of significant coverage from multiple independent secondary sources.
6. For clarity, I am not Cliff Divine, the subject of the article.
I am commenting here solely to correct factual inaccuracies. Wikipedia asks participants to avoid personal speculation about editors. The discussion should remain focused on the article content and the sources, not on assumptions about who may be editing.
7. Regarding @331dot
I want to acknowledge that @331dot has been helpful in pointing out technical copyright issues related to images. I am working on those with Commons. However, it feels disproportionate that after helping remove all images I spent hours organizing, there is now also a push from him/her to delete the entire article I spent months building with independent sources. I am raising this only to highlight how important it is to keep the focus on policy and content rather than escalating toward removing the whole subject. The notability question should be evaluated strictly based on the independent sources presented.
In summary, the subject is covered in a large number of independent reliable secondary sources, including more than thirty television news segments and multiple print and online publications. These meet the requirements of WP:BIO and support keeping the article. Cdlosangeles (talk) 20:10, 15 November 2025 (UTC)Cdlosangeles (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
Copyright violations are not a "technical issue", but a serious matter that puts Wikipedia in legal jeopardy if allowed to persist. Most images found on the internet-including stills from TV broadcasts- are not suitable for use on Wikipedia.
Quite frankly, this article is so glowing in its praise of Mr. Devine that if you aren't him or don't work for him, he should hire you. Most of his personal information is unsourced- where did you get this information? The citations in the Artistry section are largely to the website of people who worked with him- they don't provide significant coverage of him or even say what is claimed- such as "Cliff Divine studied for three months at Identity School of Acting in Los Angeles, founded by Femi Oguns, whose alumni include John Boyega and Letitia Wright." The two sources don't even mention Mr. Devine.
As I said, his organization may very well be notable. 331dot (talk) 20:27, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The section about Memory Studios is only sourced to the Memory Studios website and his IMDB entry on Amazon(IMDB is user-generated and not considered a reliable source) and should just be removed. The other citations in that section just document the existence of his work. 331dot (talk) 20:32, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you @331dot for raising the copyright concerns. I want to clarify that I have already started working on the image and licensing issues. The process is ongoing, and I would have appreciated the opportunity to address these concerns before every file was removed. I understand the importance of copyright compliance, and I intend to fully resolve that part of the article.
Regarding the content itself, the focus of the AfD should be the independent secondary sources, many of which come from established broadcasters with full editorial oversight. These sources provide significant and repeated coverage over several years. The issues you pointed out about certain biographical details or non-independent references are already being reviewed and can be adjusted. These are normal improvements, not reasons to remove the entire subject.
I would genuinely appreciate support in improving what has taken months to assemble, rather than seeing everything removed in a matter of days. Collaboration is what strengthens articles, and many of the concerns you mentioned can be fixed through normal editing. I am committed to addressing them.
I hope we can focus on constructive improvement instead of rapid removal. If there are specific areas where you believe revisions would be beneficial, I am open to working on them. My intention is to follow policy and build a solid, well-sourced article, and your help in that process would be welcome. Cdlosangeles (talk) 20:48, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Copyright violations cannot be allowed to stand for even one second. Wikipedia must make every effort to remove them or it is at risk of legal action, if not in this specific case, in other cases. If you have copyright-compliant images, you are free to upload those. 331dot (talk) 20:56, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Father of medicare (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

List article about a thing that isn't really a thing. "Father of medicare" is a phrase that a handful of Canadian politicians happen to have been tagged with by virtue of having played a role in the development of the Canadian health care system, but existing as a phrase is not necessarily the same thing as being a notable concept -- there's no analysis out there about "fathers of medicare" as a thing in its own right, there are no sources that collectively discuss the five people listed here as a group on the basis of policy-fatherhood per se, and on and so forth.
Instead, each entry in the list is referenced to a single source that ascribes this phrase to that individual person, without ever establishing the notability of the overall concept, or linking that individual person to the other four on a fatherhood axis, at all. And further, one of the five references is a dead link that's been squatted by something completely unrelated to the topic, and doesn't look to have been a particularly reliable or GNG-worthy source even when it was live.
So the roles of these five people can certainly be discussed in Medicare (Canada) itself, but there's no need for a standalone list of the "fathers" of it separately from that. See also Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2025 November 4#Category:Fathers of Medicare, as somebody recently tried to pair this list article with a non-defining category for the same five people, which got deleted (although this article itself wasn't newly created, and has existed for many years.)

Fails WP:GNG, I don't even know what language of coverage is expected. Redirect to Yugoslavia at the 1988 Summer Olympics#Judo, where his name is mentioned. ⋆。˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚。⋆ 13:37, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Per new sources found. Svartner (talk) 16:11, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirection is not appropriate in this case as the name is clearly wrong and creating a redirect under a mistaken name from a low-quality site would only perpetuate this error. If any SIGCOV is ever found it can be used to create an article under this guy's actual name. FOARP (talk) 15:53, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Olympedia is not the "source of this mistake", if you call it a mistake – his name was widely reported to be "Dragomir" in reports from the time of the Olympics, see for example this. Searching the under the name "Dragan", there's a good amount of coverage in newspapers of the time, as one would expect for an Olympian, e.g. this (~400 words), this (~300 words), this (~100 words), and many other mentions that clearly are enough to develop a quality article. That newspapers decades after his career are interviewing him for his accomplishments (apparently he's the greatest judoka in the history of Bosnia and Herzegovina – and has fought against Vladimir Putin...) also clearly indicates significance. The encyclopedia is almost assuredly SIGCOV as well given that the Serbian Wikipedia article bases over 140 words on it, including, interestingly, that he later became an American football coach. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:23, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Svartner: BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:53, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      These are pure word-counts of articles that mention Kusmuk. That is not evidence of SIGCOV because the articles I found were of similar length but not SIGCOV. You need to show that these actually have any detail about Kusmuk, not just give word-counts of articles you haven't even read. We also have *NEVER* accepted interviews as contributing to notability, because the content is not independent.
      And yes, getting the guy's name wrong is a mistake. Sources don't get to offload their carelessness on to other sources that they carelessly copied. FOARP (talk) 18:30, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      "Carelessly copied"? The official Olympic report literally had his name as Dragomir. I'm not "giving word-counts of articles [I] haven't read" – I do have access to those articles and listed the number of words discussing Kusmuk in them. Interviews alone don't grant notability, but it's pretty darn likely that someone who gets interviewed in newspapers decades after their career for being the all-time greatest judoka in their country is notable. BeanieFan11 (talk) 18:53, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      Then you can tell us what these article actually say about the subject.
      And since when was an official document getting it wrong evidence that every other source didn't have to fact-check anything before blinding relaying its data? Can you see why people say this isn't a secondary source if that's what they do? FOARP (talk) 19:48, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      If every single source gave a certain name, it's not an "error" originating with Olympedia like you claimed it is. We don't even know that it's a mistake – Dragan and Dragomir are similar names and it's reasonable that one may be a nickname for the other. The first source I cited is 400 words about a compensation issue that resulted in his suspension, the next is an in-depth story about his performance and bronze medal at the European Championships, and the third is also about a medal at the European Championships. We clearly have enough to write a quality article with what's available, not to mention the odds of the encyclopedia not covering him significantly are very slim. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:56, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      "it's reasonable that one may be a nickname for the other" - They're only as similar as Robin and Robert, and one is definitely not a known nickname for the other. FOARP (talk) 20:38, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This profile [9], in addition to the other coverage found by @BeanieFan11, provides more than enough significant coverage for this Olympian to pass WP:BASIC. It's noted in this article that he won 12 national championships, was ranked in the top 5 in Europe in the 1980s, which should indicate more coverage in the native language, some of which was already located.

that's funny, on your User page you stated:
"I am an employee of Orion Advisor Solutions, and as part of my role, I am working to ensure that Wikipedia articles related to Orion are accurate, neutral, and well-sourced. I understand Wikipedia’s policies on COI, neutrality, and verifiability and will not make direct edits to pages related to my employer. Instead, I will suggest changes on article Talk pages for independent editors to review."
49 minutes later your create an article about your employer. Equine-man (talk) 07:00, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I created a draft and submitted it for review. From the guidelines on COI disclosures, I thought that if I disclosed my COI, created a draft version of the page, and then put it through for an editor to review that was the process to help manage the COI. If I misinterpreted that, I apologize — I thought that I was adhering to the guidelines.
Can you advise me on the right way to suggest an article is created when I have a disclosed COI? Cstills (talk) 21:59, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
On the notability front, I was looking at a couple of other organizations within our industry (Cetera and SS&C Technologies) as references for what may have qualified as noteworthy and to get a structure to follow. Cstills (talk) 22:22, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Look, the process they followed is fine, I don't think the article would have been deleted on BROCHURE alone were the sources better, though the sources are very, very WP:CORPROUTINE, to the point where I think Passengerpigeon maybe shouldn't have accepted it (but AFC only goes by "likely" as the threshold anyway, so we can probably count it in their 50% or whatever likely is supposed to be). I think we can accept that everyone tried to do their best here.

As for what kind of sources, Cstills, it would be probably be best if you could find ones that are not on the list at CORPROUTINE linked above. Also pay attention to WP:ORGIND and WP:DEPENDENTCOVERAGE, avoid stuff that is based off press releases, and only use trade publications if they very, very obviously meet those criteria. Depth and independence are to be interpreted jointly here, so you need to remove everything your company provided before looking for the detailed secondary coverage, to the point that you can write a whole article on two or three. If you find the best three sources that meet that, copy them here.

Looking at Cetra, I would probably nominate that for deletion if there weren't more sources, to be honest. If you wanted a reference article... hmm, can't really think of anything off the top of my head, Qapital maybe, but that's on an app rather than a company and we tend to look for different things there. Green Dot Corporation is probably a bit too high a threshold. Alpha3031 (tc) 17:36, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've rewritten the content to remove as much promotional material as I could identify and have put it on the article's Talk page for review and consideration.
For the references, I'm not sure how they qualify as passing mentions, as they are articles primarily about Orion. Cstills (talk) 21:45, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

They are of course difficult to source by nature, but it is worth noting that this article has real value to a community of students, where you can see phrases like Niminium Cervisi (the name of one of the songs) on plaques in the halls. If it is a question of relevance, this article should stay.

I could not find any significant coverage in sources, there were some mentions in religious guide books or passing mentions in reliable sources, however it was insufficient. There is also confusion since there is not one but other mantra of the same name too. Zalaraz (talk) 09:32, 23 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge with Prasada. I've added some more detail to to Bhojan Mantra but I agree that there is not usually more than a passing reference to the mantras recited before a meal in secondary sources. Since the mantras transform the ordinary food into prasada, according to the secondary sources, I think merging with Prasada would be the best fit. The prasada article needs work as it is, so this merge could help improve it. Katiedevi (talk) 23:39, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep: I am not sure if this meets notability, so weak keep - I see the suggestions above for merge and delete, but not quite sure if the suggested targets are appropriate - e.g. merging to Mantra#Other might not work because seems currently two mantras are noted here, and possibly there are more such? and merging to Prasada may not be right - are these bhojan mantras just for prasada? Not quite sure yet if there is another appropriate page for merge. Asteramellus (talk) 18:48, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. In just looking in google books I think there is enough coverage to build a verifiable article of interest. There's are some legal issues of significance as it relates to school prayer in India. For example a law was passed by the Government of Madhya Pradesh in 2010 making it mandatory for school students to say the Bhojan Mantra before meals (see [10], [11],) which of course creates problems for students of other religions (such as Muslim students). The Government of Rajasthan also considered passing a law mandating the prayer before meals at the roughly 500 youth hostels in its jurisdiction ([12]). On page 223 of Sarto Esteves's 2002 book Freedom to Build, Not Destroy: Attacks on Christians and Their Institutions states that Christian schools have been forced to recite the Bhojan Mantra because the laws make no religious exemptions for institutions based in other faiths. He views this as an attack by the state on Christian institutions in India. Best.4meter4 (talk) 20:06, 30 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    These are passing mentions only, the coverage is not significant. Zalaraz (talk) 11:56, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Network Science Based Basketball Analytics (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is a hyper-specific topic within an already niche subject (basketball analytics), and therefore does not merit its own separate article. It is based on a few published analyses, themselves no more noteworthy than dozens of other published analyses in the field of sports analytics. The only article that links to this is the article on the more generalized topic (Advanced statistics in basketball). Even the basketball statistics template does not include this. Therefore, I am flagging it for deletion as it does not meet the criteria for notability.

Other notable advanced basketball metrics that have their own pages such as Adjusted Plus Minus, Player efficiency rating, or Effective field goal percentage, are widely published and utilized. Further, they have static formulas that can be used to accurately recreate them. However, there's no published and regularly updated public source for what is presented in this article, nor is there a static formula that can be followed to recreate the results.

If desired, the contents of this page could be shortened into a paragraph and added to the existing Basketball statistics page, with references to the source academic paper. Gabefarkas (talk) 18:12, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of Air Mauritius destinations (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:LISTN, WP:NCORP, WP:NOT, and common sense.

WP:LISTN and WP:NCORP are failed because none of the sources provided in this article are secondary, reliable, independent (WP:SIRS) sources giving significant coverage to the topic of the services offered by Air Mauritius. Instead they are:

  • PDF copies of time tables published on the airline website.
  • PDFs of old copies of the Flight International directory, which is industry press (see WP:TRADES) whose information came directly from the airline, and who only provided a bare listing of destinations.
  • The CAPA website, an industry organisation which Air Mauritius is a customer/business-partner of. Not independent.
  • The website of the Corporate Travel Community, which is part of CAPA and is " a network of corporate travel buyers and other personnel who manage their organisation’s travel portfolios".
  • A FlightGlobal.com article about a press-conference. WP:TRADES, not independent.
  • The annual report of Air Mauritius, enough said.
  • A single-paragraph story in Air Journal based entirely on a company announcement, WP:TRADES, not WP:SIGCOV.
  • A brief Xinhuanet report about the opening of a single route, based entirely on statements from the CEO of Air Mauritius. Not WP:SIGCOV, not independent.
  • A Reuters story about airlines cancelling flights during COVID. Not SIGCOV of the topic of the routes of this airline.
  • Routesonline, a corporate blog which is not reliable and independent per our discussion at RSN.
  • A Twitter post by JetArena, enough said.
  • WP:AEROROUTES
  • A press-release published in Le Mauricien (they literally just screen-capped the letter from the airline).

I could go on but it would be tiresome for all involved. None of the above sourcing is a WP:SIRS pass.

WP:NOT is failed as this is an exhaustive listing of all of the services offered by a corporations, and as such a WP:NOTCATALOGUE/WP:NOTGUIDE fail.

Common sense is failed because this is predominantly a listing of places this airline does not fly to (of 44 destinations, 31 are listed as "terminated"). Why on earth should we maintain such a list?

Whilst there is text content in this article, this is all already included at the parent article. There is therefore nothing to merge. FOARP (talk) 10:31, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:NLIST. Paper in which authors polled passengers traveling on routes to South Africa about service quality. This paper contains a map of the routes. Another map is also present in a chapter of this book. Kelob2678 (talk) 11:23, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Here are the sources identified by Kelob2678, alongside a couple more I found from a WP:DILIGENCE search of Google Books and The Wikipedia Library. My preference as an editor would be to merge to Air Mauritius#Destinations, as WP:NPRODUCT states Avoid splitting the company and its products into separate articles, unless both have so much coverage in reliable secondary sources as to make a single article unwieldy, and I don't think WP:SIZE is an issue (Air Mauritius is roughly 3000 words, well under the 10000-word split threshold). Having said that, I think it would be reasonable to interpret the primary (SIRS) NCORP criteria as being met by the first four sources listed below (while the Encyclopedia of African Airlines is a tertiary reference, I don't think the secondary/tertiary distinction is important here). Whereas NPRODUCT falls within the (optional) alternative criteria section of NCORP. So I don't think there's a strong case to make a formal recommendation either way.

Thank you for the sources. I believe the relevant policy here is WP:DUE. This table, if added to the parent article, would take a disproportionately large space, and then editors could argue that it should be removed or trimmed. In structuring articles, we should serve the reader. At a time when most readers use mobile devices, it is better to have shorter articles. Kelob2678 (talk) 16:57, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
12 destinations that are actually being served would take up too much space? Once you strip out the WP:OR "terminated" destinations (seriously, if you're comparing schedules and saying all the services not listed in the later one are now "terminated", this is what you are doing) that's what you're left with. FOARP (talk) 09:11, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see WP:OR here. I suppose this can be resolved by replacing "terminated" with something like "As of 2020, the route was not operational". Kelob2678 (talk) 09:59, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm. Why can't the table just list the start/end dates for each route, which seem adequately sourcable? To pick a random example, the Sydney route began in 1986 (tertiary source: Encyclopedia of African Airlines p.125) and was terminated (alongside several others) in 2012 (primary source: Le Mauricien article quoting the company). Declining to list a route operational for over two decades smacks of WP:Recentism to me. Preimage (talk) 11:05, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Saying that that route had operated for that entire time, based on that sourcing, would be full-on WP:OR. No source says they operated that route for 20 years. Similarly "As of 2020, the route was not operational" - If you're going to say that, you need a source that actually says that. Not just a source that doesn't list it.

That's not original research. On Wikipedia, original research means material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published source exists. There is even a link to a reliable, published source in that comment! SportingFlyer T·C 14:09, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If a map or timetable of current destinations do not show any particular city as currently served but another reference shows it was served in the past there is nothing to argue: the destination is terminated. This is not original research: WP:ORMEDIA applies here. --Jetstreamer Talk 14:40, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
"If a map or timetable of current destinations do not show any particular city as currently served but another reference shows it was served in the past there is nothing to argue: the destination is terminated" - There absolutely is something to be argued because 1) the service may never have operated, just been announced, 2) the reference saying it was served may have been wrong, 3) the reference not including it as presently served may be wrong. Stating that it was operated but has since been "terminated" is OR if no source says so. FOARP (talk) 14:47, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You're putting in doubt all sourcing in Wikipedia with your reasoning. You're complicating something that should be simple. WP:VNT applies.--Jetstreamer Talk 14:53, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Very few things on Wikipedia are sourced to OR in the way you suggest. Most things that have a source have a source that explicitly supports what Wikipedia says, and don't engage in faulty guesswork. It's not complicated, it is very simple: don't WP:SYNTH sources to say something they don't actually say. FOARP (talk) 15:58, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You have that backwards. You are arguing it is self evidently truth that the destination is terminated since it was listed and now it is not listed. That may be truth, but you haven't verified it. You would need a source saying that it existed and was terminated to verify it. It is your synthesis that takes those two sources, neither of which say it was terminated, and use them together to say something that neither source explicitly says. WP:SYNTHesis is original research. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 15:58, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm not sure a significant publication record, as measured by citations, satisfies WP:NACADEMIC though. She might meet "The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity.", but that would need to be supported by something beyond just citation count. I think she's more likely to be notable under WP:GNG since there is some coverage of her outside of the academic literature. GenomeFan92 (talk) 17:03, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, I checked again, and being the "Barron Hilton Endowed Professor of Financial Economics at Dillard University" [15] might qualify her under "The person has held a distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, a named chair appointment that indicates a comparable level of achievement, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon." How do we know if that particular named chair indicates a comparable level of achievement to being a distinguished professor at a major institution? Dillard University has history back to 1869. It's fairly small (so maybe it isn't itself "major"), but the school does say in [16] that its various Barron Hilton endowed positions are "one of the highest honors a faculty member can achieve". GenomeFan92 (talk) 18:31, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • There's significant coverage of her published by the St. Louis Fed, who I think is independent and sufficiently reliable, in [17] where they decided she was interesting enough to interview about her work for half an hour. And similarly, the "Sustaining Capitalism" podcast has published a similar show about her and her work at [18], and even though the name suggests an obvious agenda in any debate over economic systems, I'd expect them to be reliable on the subject of this person, and I see no particular connection between them and her. Both of these are cited in the article. So Alexandermcnabb I think that meets the 2 independent, reliable sources with WP:SIGCOV of the subject bar that's needed for WP:GNG, right? Or is there a problem with one or both of those sources in your view? GenomeFan92 (talk) 16:57, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks GenomeFan92, that's what I was thinking. The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis is a reputable source I would hope, and is not her employer, and they considered her notable enough to feature her work. Likewise the Conference Board is a real organization and not obviously connected to her as you said. And while the Fortune magazine article [19] gave a fairly brief summary of her work, they did consider her notable enough to include in their list.

Existential Comics does not appear to pass the general notability guideline. The American Philosophical Association blog source is an interview, much like the Daily Stoic, Critical-Theory and Hyperallergic sources are. I previously removed another interview from the questionable-looking BTR Today from the article. Of the remaining four sources, two of them discuss a single fleeting event. The Willamette Week is a local newspaper, which is not an ideal source for proving a subject's notability. In any case, a sizeable portion of the three-paragraph article consists of quotations from Corey Mohler himself. The other one, a Salon article, comes from a publication that is generally regarded as being of questionable reliability. The Paste article is functionally a three-paragraph advertisement. The article in El País is the only one that has any real content. A search for additional sources found a few passing mentions and republications of Existential Comics' issues in Philosophy Now. ―Susmuffin Talk 00:53, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Length is not the only determining factor over whether something is significant coverage. The type of source and the claim being made is also important. In this case, we have scholarly engagement with the material, some of which highlight this as a notable publication within the broader literature of its type. The number of sources is also a factor when collectively much can be said about a topic verified to SECONDARY materials. We can have a reliable article verified to SECONDARY materials of a decent length. That's a good sign of notability, and a good reason for inclusion.4meter4 (talk) 16:41, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This magazine looks clearly like SIGCOV, and the Olympic dream story is 350 words and also clearly SIGCOV. @Hack: Also added several offline sources that are almost certainly SIGCOV as well, including "Jumping the queue; Erwin puts case for Olympics", "Erwin's nervous wait", and "Riding high". If not kept, it should be redirected. Olympians never should be outright deleted as there are always redirect targets, and deleting just to create a redirect makes zero sense. @Enos733, Katzrockso, Let'srun, and Allan Nonymous: BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:41, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    "This magazine looks clearly like SIGCOV" - it's an interview. Ditto the second piece, also an interview. Didn't we just have a conversation where you acknowledged that interviews don't contribute to notability? FOARP (talk) 19:52, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    To describe it as solely an interview is disingenuous. Quotes from the subject do not count for notability, but independent content on the subject in the sources does. Just because a source has some quotes absolutely does not make it ineligible to count as SIGCOV. The magazine has over 600 words about her that is not quotes from Erwin – which is clearly enough for SIGCOV. The next source has several hundred words of independent prose as well, not to mention we have several other stories that we know are on her and are also very likely significant. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:02, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I am not being "disingenuous", it is indeed just the plain truth that this is an interview and accusing people of lying without basis is a personal attack. Or do you really think that when the interviewer says, for example:

    "She also remembers the first time she jumped the FEI four-star event in Fontainebleau, France. She walked onto the huge grass field feeling starstruck — Big Star, a horse that had won a gold medal at the London Olympics, had gone before her and had knocked one or two rails. The jumps were set very large and the course was intimidating. However, after pulling the first rail, Erwin’s horse Matilda had a clear round. She felt proud knowing that she could have full trust in her horse’s ability to jump a huge track."

    That this is not simply just paraphrasing what Erwin said to her? And the entire article is like this. Same with the second, or do you really think that a sentence like "In both cases, she intends to bring the knowledge and experience she gains in Europe back to Australia." is not simply paraphrasing what Erwin said? FOARP (talk) 20:16, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    THAISA Erwin jetted out yesterday for what she hopes is a showjumping berth in the Athens Olympics ... Thaisa, who graduated earlier this year with a double degree in environmental engineering from the University of New England and the University of Newcastle, will combine her Olympic quest with an investigation of European advances in the use of renewable energy ... After qualifying for the Olympics in January, Thaisa went on to win the World Cup qualifier at the Sydney Royal Easter Show, riding her 10-year-old show jumper, The Countryman. She and The Countryman will not only trial for a berth at the Olympics but also compete in the European season. Now working for an environmental consulting firm based in Maitland she is involved in renewable energy projects including the establishment of wind farms. Thaisa developed as a show jumping competitor while growing up and studying in Armidale ... Meanwhile, she has taken out a personal loan to pay the extensive cost of air travel to Europe for herself and The Countryman – and living expenses for them both when there. Including the travel and accommodation costs for herself and The Countryman and entrance fees into the World Cup championship events, Thaisa is facing costs of $70,000 to $100,000 ... Now, with the Olympics finally in sight, she is also preparing for the World Equestrian Games in Germany in 2006.none of that is accurately described as "paraphrasing what Erwin said", and that's from the shorter article – the magazine has much more non-quote content on her.

    You cherry-picked the one sentence out of the 10 about her that I cited above that could possibly be considered "paraphrasing".

A search returns nothing and all provided reviews fail WP:NALBUM 1. Allan Nonymous (talk) 02:02, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Search provided plenty of reviews from 3rd parties, as opposed to press releases written by the bands which you seem to allow. The article is a STUB. You need to allow people a chance to build upon it. Raybeezer (talk) 02:27, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This argument for deletion here is failing notability, something not established by press releases. Those are only used for WP:ABOUTSELF uncontroversial claims and have no impact on notability whatsoever. If you read WP:NALBUM 1. it states that only reviews appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published contribute. It is not hard to see at least 2 of the 3 sources here are self-published. Just because an article is a stub does not make it immune from Wikipedia's notability guidelines which I would advise you to brush up on. Allan Nonymous (talk) 02:34, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Tilly Norwood (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I have seriously gone back and forth in my mind about making this nomination. For some background, 6 weeks ago I contacted a fellow editor who is very experienced, to get their opinion on the article. (I don't know whether it is okay to link it due to the WP:CANVASSING rule, so I will opt not to.) The main issue was that the entire media decided to report on Norwood en masse, creating a significant amount of coverage in the span of a week. This is evident in the article, which has no sources from after Oct 3. The sources are almost all reliable, there is no question there, however it is quite clearly about one thing and nothing else. WP:BLP1E doesn't apply as Norwood isn't "alive". Norwood, apart from existing, hasn't actually done anything. Literally nothing. WP:GNG is met because of the amount of initial coverage there was. I can't think of a notability policy that hasn't been met here.

This article is an example of WP:RECENTISM, which is an essay, so isn't really strong enough rationale for deletion on its own. I believe WP:CRYSTAL is somewhat relevant as the coverage Norwood has received relates to how she can save filmmakers money in the future by casting her. As of yet, this has not happened. WP:TOOSOON also applies to this. Then there is WP:INDISCRIMINATE, but this falls flat on its face most of the time at AfD, so I am not going to try and make that argument here. I think the strongest policy I can cite here is WP:NOTNEWS.

Basically, this is an AI persona created by a non-notable company, founded by a questionably notable actress. I don't think there is a precedent for this, but I don't believe for a second that Norwood qualifies for a standalone article. This is nothing more than a trend that came into existence and died in the same week. 11WB (talk) 00:23, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    @MidnightMayhem, I did cite a policy actually, WP:CRYSTAL. 11WB (talk) 02:02, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    CRYSTAL requires a prediction or speculation on the future. I don't see that in the article. Could you cite a section of the article which you see as speculation? Mikeycdiamond (talk) 02:21, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I think WP:CRYSTAL is a fairly weak argument here considering that most of the sourcing and prose in the article is grounded in current commentary, and all I'm seeing at the talk page is a case of WP:IDONTLIKEIT arguing that Norwood is AI slop. I agree with editor Erik's explanation that Wikipedia summarizes coverage from reliable sources, and that if notability is established, quality of the topic doesn't matter. I'll point out again that you admitted GNG and SIGCOV are met. So, I still don't see enough reason for deletion. MidnightMayhem (talk) 02:27, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I can't speak for other editors, whether IDONTLIKEIT applies or not to them, I am not able to answer. I can only speak for myself in that I make AfD nominations when I believe there is a case for an article to not be included on Wikipedia. @Mikeycdiamond, you have asked me a question, so I am going to assume you wanted me to answer, I want to be very careful I don't come across as if I am bludgeoning. The following quotes from the article come under WP:CRYSTAL:
    'Particle6 has stated that using Norwood could cut production costs by 90%.' - This is a prediction.
    'Actresses Melissa Barrera, Kiersey Clemons, and Natasha Lyonne suggested boycotting any agency who signed Norwood, while Mara Wilson asked why none of the "hundreds of living young women" who went into Norwood could be hired instead.' - This line in the reception section doesn't appear as being a prediction, but the general topic is about whether agencies will hire Norwood in the future.
    'Van der Velden claimed that studios had dropped their objections by May after being opposed in February, and that multiple talent agencies were considering representing Norwood.' - The source from Deadline, which is reliable, says that this is expected. They were talking about it with them, but it is not a guarantee, so Van der Velden made a prediction here.
    I will say the article has been improved since it was first created, which is good. However, it is based entirely on sources that are contemporary reporting, which is covered under WP:NOTNEWS. I have expressed my reasoning in my initial post, it is a tough case to make, but I genuinely believe there is nothing differentiating Norwood from any other AI character anybody could make using Google Veo or another generator. This does need to be my last reply now, as I have already crossed into bludgeoning territory. I am answering @Mikeycdiamond's question and not intending to force a point through. 11WB (talk) 02:39, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The first quote should probably be removed, but that isn't enough of a reason to delete the whole article, the second quote makes no predictions, and the third quote makes no claim that the agencies will hire her, just that they're considering it. As for your not news arguement, it has gotten consistent coverage for two months, what more could you want? Also, yes, it is no different than any other AI, but we don't get to decide that Tilly Norwood isn't notable just because we think it is dumb. I personally think it is dystopian, but my personal opinion holds no weight here. Mikeycdiamond (talk) 03:10, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I've gone over this in my head for about a month already. I was told to wait, which I have. However, I bit the bullet and decided to just get it over with. GNG is only met because the media decided to report it en masse. That is not my argument for deletion in this AfD. NOTNEWS, CRYSTAL, RECENTISM, TOOSOON and INDISCRIMINATE are. Of those, NOTNEWS probably has the strongest policy rationale for deletion. CRYSTAL has been rebutted, but the others have not. 11WB (talk) 04:51, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I am not surprised by the keep votes coming in already. I'm not going to respond to every vote as that would amount to WP:BLUDGEONING. This article from The Independent reports that the company who created Norwood are planning to make 40 more AI "actors". If the next 40 get this much coverage, then surely they should all get their own articles? 11WB (talk) 01:57, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    It is unlikely they will get similar coverage. Tilly Norwood was a shock, and, as much as I hate to say this, an innovation. She represents the distopia that has been slowly approaching since the rise of ChatGPT. The shock of an AI being able to "act" and peoples hate for AI is what likely caused the sparks of debate, and eventually, notability. Mikeycdiamond (talk) 02:26, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Points 2, 3, and 4 of WP:NOTNEWS apply to this article. Although it’s true Norwood meets the general notability outlined in WP:GNG, articles on wikipedia must meet notability requirements “and not excluded under the What Wikipedia is not policy”. See paragraph four in Wikipedia:Notability. If Norwood actually stars in something and gets another round of media coverage, I could see the NOTNEWS rule no longer applying. JoeyS7 (talk) 13:23, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You summed this up better than I ever could have. Thank you. For anybody viewing this AfD, how @JoeyS7 explained their rationale aligns with my own. NOTNEWS is the most relevant policy that Norwood violates. 11WB (talk) 15:28, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am going to attempt to merge the mini discussion happening at @Benmite's vote and respond to JoeyS7's vote point by point. The following are my arguments against JoeyS7 points:
Point 2: There is nothing routine about this; Tilly Norwood is a first in the film industry. She also has been covered (at least by the sources in the article) from July 30 to November 13. While the premise of Tilly Norwood is idiotic, it has been widely discussed over a long period of time.
Point 3: She isn't known for a single event. Particle6, the creator of Tilly Norwood, released a sketch of her on July 30 that Broadcast International made an article about. The company sat on Tilly Norwood for a few months, before showing it off at the Zurich Film Festival, which got it past the notability criteria.
Point 4: I agree that the article is like a diary when it comes to including every person's view on Tilly Norwood, but per Wikipedia:IMPROVEIT, we shouldn't delete an article because of a fixable problem. Mikeycdiamond (talk) 01:01, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You are right on point 2. I find your reasoning for point 3 questionable, being shown at an event as a concept and actually being cast in a box office film are two very different things, and the latter has not yet happened. If we are going to allow anything that has been shown at any festival ever, then that isn't a very high bar to meet. You basically conceded point 4, unfortunately it goes a bit beyond being strictly an editorial issue when Norwood's entire history takes place over less than 2 months. NOTNEWS is still very relevant here. 11WB (talk) 03:35, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The bar isn't being set by the film festival; we are obviously not making being at a film festival a reason for notability. The point I made was that Tilly Norwood was known for two events: the skit and the film festival. Those events weren't connected in any way and is two events under the implied definition set by the policy. If point 3 was applicable, there would be an overlaying event within the article which we could write an article about. Also, what is wrong with the article that is being used for the point 4 claim is strictly an editorial issue. If we trimmed the last three paragraphs to be more condense, the article would be fine. Mikeycdiamond (talk) 21:33, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Passes notability, but not WP:NOTNEWS/WP:SUSTAINED. I'm going to say the page is WP:TOOSOON, and if she continues to be a figure used in the entertainment industry and garners more coverage, then the argument for a page would be stronger. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 12:59, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. WP:NOTNEWS does not override WP:GNG when the subject has significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources that discuss the topic in depth rather than simply reporting news events. This article clearly meets WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV. WP:RECENTISM is an essay, not a policy, so it couldn't override WP:GNG even if it were applicable to this article, which in my view it isn't. I don't find WP:CRYSTAL or WP:TOOSOON particularly compelling because this article isn't making claims about the future that are speculative or unverified; significant coverage has already been clearly established and notability is not temporary. While I understand that this subject matter is bound to draw some strong opinions (and god knows I have my own), the bottom line is WP:GNG is the main threshold and this article passes it. — Hunter Kahn 19:57, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:NSUSTAINED actually says otherwise. 'Brief bursts of news coverage may not sufficiently demonstrate notability. However, sustained coverage is an indicator of notability, as described by notability of events. New organizations and future events might pass WP:GNG, but lack sufficient coverage to satisfy WP:NOTNEWSPAPER.' This is a pretty firm notability guideline and one which this AfD uses against keeping the article. The sustained coverage is either not reliable or not relevant to the article and Wikipedia, as said above, is not a source for short-lived news events such as Norwood (and any others that follow). 11WB (talk) 22:12, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • Respectfully, but I believe WP:NSUSTAINED is being misapplied here. WP:NSUSTAINED is not a standalone notability requirement, it is an interpretive guidance for how to assess events and bursts of news that do not demonstrate in-depth coverage. The key part of the guideline is that "brief bursts of news coverage may not sufficiently demonstrate notability." In this case, the coverage is neither trivial nor fleeting. There are multiple independent, reputable sources providing substantive, non-routine analysis of the subject, which is exactly what WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV require. — Hunter Kahn 03:43, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      GNG and SIGCOV are not what's being argued here. The main policy for deletion is NOTNEWS. 11WB (talk) 04:06, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:NOTNEWS is policy, whereas WP:GNG is a guideline; so you are entirely incorrect. Policy is ALWAYS controlling over guidelines. TarnishedPathtalk 10:11, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Article is well cited by reliable sources, the subject of the article is notable as it's presented as a key argument about AI integration into Hollywood and per MidnightMayhem. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 18:49, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep There have been sources both mentioning and exclusively about Tilly Norwood from reliable sources published after Oct 3: on October 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 17, 18, 22, 23, 24, 25, and 31; and November 6, 7, 8, 10 11, 12, 13, and 17. I've bolded the sources that I've already added to the article and plan to add the rest soon, so it's no longer true that there are no sources from after Oct 3 and, as far as the sources that exist, I'd say coverage has been shown to extend far past October 3.
Whether or not the company or the actress behind Tilly Norwood are non-notable or questionably notable, respectively, is immaterial to the discussion because neither the company nor the actress are the subject of the article. There have also been op-eds entirely or largely about Tilly Norwood published variously throughout October 7 to 20:
  • The i Paper ("Hollywood is Getting the Actress It Deserves")
  • Wall Street Journal ("Tilly Norwood and U.S. Renewal")
  • Fast Company ("What the Tilly Norwood Moment Should Teach Us")
  • Los Angeles Times ("It's not acting if it’s just one AI avatar talking at another")
  • The Conversation (twice)
  • ABC News ("Why calling Tilly Norwood 'a piece of art' spectacularly misses the point")
  • Cheddar ("Why AI 'actress' Tilly Norwood is no threat to Hollywood")
  • CNA ("What the Tilly Norwood saga proved about AI-generated content")
All of these are about much more than how she can save filmmakers money in the future by casting her, so not only does WP:CRYSTAL not apply here (as established above by Mikeycdiamond and MidnightMayhem), but this nomination is arguably a much closer example of what the policy cautions against, as 11WB writes, This is nothing more than a trend that came into existence and died in the same week, a preemptive assessment of the subject's relevancy predicated exclusively on original research. benǝʇᴉɯ 21:40, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You haven't actually rebutted the main policy here, which is NOTNEWS, much like many of the others here who have also !voted to keep the article. I already said above that CRYSTAL no longer applies, that was an editorial point only. It would be helpful for the discussion to address the main policy being argued, as it has been made clear from the beginning that GNG/SIGCOV are not the issue. 11WB (talk) 21:44, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I will say, all of the sources you have provided are reliable, with the possible exception of AV Club, which originated from The Onion. Unfortunately, this does not preclude Norwood from simply being a lightning strike phenomenon that the media has simply chosen to report on without reasonable end. (Just a sidenote: I likely would not have replied, however you did ping, which means your comment was in my alerts tab. No issue with that, just wanted to let you know!) 11WB (talk) 21:51, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
See WP:AVCLUB for A.V. Club's reliability. You are again introducing POV to the discussion—whether or not you find the media coverage reasonable is not a key point of discussion, and saying that it is being reported on without ... end seems to suggest the opposite of your assertion in the very same sentence that this is a lightning strike phenomenon. And thus far, as far as I can tell, neither you nor the other delete voters have actually linked specific parts of this article to WP:NOTNEWS, so I would recommend providing examples so as to avoid merely pointing at the policy. benǝʇᴉɯ 22:33, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This has already been done as well. My reply also affirms that I agree with the rationale in that !vote. 11WB (talk) 22:48, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
To your point on AV Club, RS/PS clearly states the following: 'There is consensus that AI-generated articles are generally unreliable; The A.V. Club's parent company, G/O Media, began releasing such pieces in July 2023, usually under the byline "The A.V. Club Bot".'. The time of which the article you linked, is from. Whether or not that article is generated by an LLM is up for debate. However, based on the recent Dawn controversy, I would not trust an outlet that releases articles using AI. 11WB (talk) 22:51, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yemenis (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

We already have Culture of Yemen, Demographics of Yemen, Tribes of Yemen, and Yemeni diaspora. Most of this article is a WP:ESSAY-like digression on the genetic diversity of Yemenis, which is sourced mostly to primary sources and is largely duplicative of content in Genetic history of the Middle East and the problematic Genetic studies on Arabs. This section is almost certainly AI-written with mush like "Yemen's unique geographic position raises questions about its infuence on the genetic structure of its inhabitants." (what?!). Delete per WP:ESSAY and WP:TNT; this could hypothetically be a real article because the Yemeni people are obviously notable, but this article is completely unworthy.

Keep. I removed the offending genetics section. The nomination presents no valid reason for deletion that isn't resolved by editing. Katzrockso (talk) 00:47, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep under WP:SK#1 and #3, actually. Don't waste editor time with these frivolous nominations, issues with a section of an article aren't remedied by deletion and AfD is not the correct forum to fix these issues. Katzrockso (talk) 00:49, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bill Brennan (activist) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

It looks like someone created pages for all the major candidates in the 2017 NJ governor's race, regardless of notability. Brennan is a firefighter who lost in the Democratic primary. His only real claim to fame is that he's made quite a few citizen legal complaints against public officials and got into a bit of a spat with Chris Christie, but that doesn't seem to have translated to any lasting news coverage beyond 2017. The articles about his complaints don't name him in the headline, which indicates that he's not seen as a notable political figure within New Jersey. I'd suggest a redirect to 2017 New Jersey gubernatorial election#Democratic primary. BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 00:07, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like someone created pages for all the major candidates in the 2017 NJ governor's race, regardless of notability. Rohrman was the Libertarian nominee in that race and seems to have received no major news attention outside of routine campaign coverage.
