Control cable

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

Currently, there's only one link in this disambiguation, and it's to jumper cable. I could be wrong, but I'm not seeing evidence that control cable and jumper cable are synonyms and "control cable" isn't mentioned at that article (WP:DABMENTION). Therefore, this should be deleted unless someone more knowledgeable on the subject could offer either a good place to redirect this to or possibly create a functional dab if this truly is ambiguous. -- Tavix ^(talk) 23:53, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I did some searching and control cable is a very common term. It can be a cable in a medical prosthesis, toy train, motorcycle, any kind of electrical/computer system, automotive brake, aircraft, automotive heater, helipad lighting system, torpedo, automobile defroster, automobile accelerator, automobile choke, and so on.... I don't see that it is a specific term likely to be searched. These examples were all found with a Google search of books only. Searching within WP finds many similar references, along with a couple where it is used as a synonym for jumper cable between train cars: Push–pull train and Railway Clearing House. Still, the term is rather vague and I don't think it really belongs in a DAB page. I don't think you could make a case that the train jumper cable is a primary usage of the term, nor is anything. So I don't think a redirect makes sense either. MB 01:12, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as a disambiguation page if gives a chance to differentiate control cables. Peter Horn User talk 01:21, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are no articles named control cable. You could write a broad-concept article on control cables, but I doubt the concept is notable as a stand-alone article. Disambiguation doesn't make any sense. MB 23:15, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A Jumper cable is a control cable in the sense that the control of different functions of the locomotive and train are transmitted by it. Peter Horn User talk 01:30, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The cables on a bicycle brake or dérailleur etc could also be considered as control cables. Peter Horn User talk 00:06, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. It's one of those word/phrases that is a WP:COMMONWORD and a WP:BROADCONCEPT that probably isn't notable, as MB says. In my experience, "jumper cable" is not synonymous with "control cable". As far as making a dab, I found SY control cable, Control line, and Aircraft Control Cable Products, which are all really stretching the definition of MOS:DABENTRY. We should get rid of it. — Gorthian (talk) 00:16, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete without prejudice to recreating if somebody can find more things to link to than Gorthian did in their valiant effort. A Train^talk 15:32, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or Move to Draft Article is useless if it is just a credits dump. Creator needs to work on it for a while. It has potential given that Rodgers does voice main characters in Haganai, D-Frag! and Absolute Duo but none of this is explained, and there are no sources for any of this. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:57, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've also not found any news articles, just profiles from anime conventions (copied from Wikipedia and similar sources), or her talent agency. It would be very difficult to write a bio.

Delete or Move to Draft Since the previous AFD in 2011, Kate starred as Akane Tsunemori in Psycho-Pass which helps towards WP:ENT, but still lacks in any significant articles about her. The article at the time of this comment is still a useless credits dump, and contains none of the content that would make it satisfy notability.

Move to draft

@Ron Lucci: I'd like to see Kate's article become something more than just a credits dump, honestly speaking. Once we find reliable secondary sources that could help assert her notability, we'll get her article back up. But for now, the article is still too basic for publication. I'd like your input, Ron.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Sk8erPrince (talk • contribs) 23:21, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No evidence of notability at all. A game made up by someone and posted to a web site and it has also been listed on a couple of other web sites, one of which says "This site seeks to catalog the vast number of Chess variants created throughout history, as well as to nurture the creation of new variants", in other words it is totally indiscriminate, and lists any variant, no matter how notable or non-notable.

Delete. As always, an unelected candidate for a state legislature does not get a Wikipedia article just for being a candidate — if you cannot show and source credible evidence that he was already notable enough for an article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he does not become notable enough for an article until he wins the election. For added bonus, this is referenced only to his own primary source content about himself, and cites no reliable source coverage at all — and even an actual officeholder doesn't get to rest on that kind of sourcing. No prejudice against recreation if he wins his seat next month, but nothing here entitles him to an article today. Bearcat (talk) 15:26, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Carlos Avery

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

Delete. Completely unsourced article about a state bureaucrat, whose strongest claim of notability is that he had a wildlife management area named after him. This is not an automatic inclusion freebie that entitles him to a standalone biography just because he existed, if enough reliable source coverage to get him over WP:GNG isn't present to support it. We already have a separate article about the park, so he can certainly be mentioned there as its namesake -- but reliable sourcing, not the mere fact of his existence, is what it would take to get him a standalone article as a separate topic. Bearcat (talk) 19:46, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Carlos Avery Game Farm. Was there any reason to bring this to AfD rather than perform the obvious editing action that doesn't require an admin to press the "delete" button? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 20:24, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lack of any substantive reason to retain the edit history behind the redirect. A new redirect can still be created from the redlink afterward if desired; deleting the article would not preclude that. As well, if somebody actually types "Carlos Avery" into the search bar, "Carlos Avery Game Farm" is already going to come up as the very first autocomplete option anyway, so a redirect wouldn't actually help direct anybody anywhere they wouldn't already have gotten directed anyway. There'd be a much stronger case for a redirect if the redirect target didn't already have his name right in its title — but if the park's name is already going to show up in the search anyway, then a redirect from his own name is just redundant. Bearcat (talk) 20:30, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any reason why the history shouldn't be kept, so starting a deletion discussion rather than just redirecting is a waste of all of our time. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 20:37, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The history should not be kept because it's unsourced content about a person who doesn't pass a notability criterion. And redirects with prior edit histories as articles often get reverted back to articles again by new editors who are unfamiliar with Wikipedia policies, leading to edit warring when it gets re-reverted back to a redirect and then re-re-reverted back to an article and then re-re-re-reverted back to a redirect again — so there needs to be a much more compelling reason than "it's not hurting anything" to actually retain the edit history rather than deleting the article and then creating a redirect. Bearcat (talk) 20:48, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your argument about being "unsourced content" has not added WP:IAR, and WP:DEL7 does not provide for deletion based on an absence of sources in the article. Unscintillating (talk) 02:39, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

~~Redirect~~ - This amount of information can be safely incorporated in the piece on the eponymous wildlife refuge. I suppose a really serious biographical effort could be made that would pass GNG muster, theoretically speaking, but this ain't it. Carrite (talk) 18:01, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmmmmm, the plot thickens. I see from a cursory glance at Newspapers.com that Avery was also a newspaper publisher and Democratic candidate for governor of Minnesota in 1924. This actually is a bio that can be taken over the GNG bar, defeated politician or not. I might play around with it for an hour to see how that goes... Carrite (talk) 18:09, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Pending further work on the piece by me. Major party nominees for governor are pretty much inevitably GNG passes, I think. Carrite (talk) 18:13, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There is copious newspaper coverage of this former mayor of Hutchinson, MN and state Democratic Party bigwig. Note also the existence of a booklet on him LISTED HERE, apparently a publication of the Carlos Avery Wildlife Refuge. Biography is expanding... Carrite (talk) 19:31, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, nothing that four hours of hard work couldn't fix. Pinging Bearcat with a request to close this as a Speedy Keep. Carrite (talk) 22:19, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Clearly notable, and the article now has adequate sourcing, due to Carrite's more than ten-fold expansion. Kablammo (talk) 16:37, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Wow. An SPA has been working on this article for almost 3 years. I think a COI is implied, but the article doesn't actually seem AfD-worthy.

Jergling (talk) 21:29, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The issue, as far as notability is concerned, is not whether this guy has had some high-profile jobs, but whether he has received significant coverage in independent reliable sources. I have been unable to find such coverage either in the sources cited in the article or elsewhere. Have you found any? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:38, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No. My impression is that all the sources here are employers or former employers. Chances are that he's not independently notable. Jergling (talk) 14:11, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - having had a chance to wade through the refs he looks like a narcissist turned good guy but the whole article is fawning and promotional.

Delete based solely on lacking notability as a photographer. I don't usually comment on actor or activist AfDs but based on what I've read, he may not be notable in any case. The sources are certainly not impressive. The article states he was in a "feature role" in a Robert De Niro film. I'm not sure what a featured role is supposed to mean, but it appears to be a small part. Some 80s coverage as a teen idol of sorts (Tiger Beat!) but again, I'm not convinced any of this passes WP:GNG.

Rhys Lawrey

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

Fails the criteria of Wikipedia:Notability (people). This is an autobiography (2mororider is Lawrey's handle, website URL, etc) that is sourced entirely to press releases by Lawrey's sponsor, Triumph, or his own website, or press releases by his high school, or his partner charity. None of the sources meet Wikipedia's standards for independence. No sources verify that Lawrey's record attempt was successful. No sources verify that any such Guinness categories, "Youngest Person to Circumnavigate the World by Motorcycle" and "Most Consecutive Capital Cities Visited by Motorcycle" even exist.

The Daily Mirror tabloid and Cambridge News Local World website citations are not credible. the ZA Bikers blog post is a copy-paste of Triumph's press release.

Finally, the ride for which all this is about is a professionally organized tour by Globebusters [2] tour company owned by Lawrey's parents. Dennis Bratland (talk) 19:17, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Well, whatever you want to call this, it did seem to get some international media attention. For example, this bylined (short) article from Maori Television, or this interview with a Polish motorcycling website (I'm not 100% sold on reliability there, but it does have a declared editorial staff, so...). On the other hand, this interview with maybe-reliable Brake Magazine all but admits that these aren't "real" records, just things Lawrey made up (to his credit, that is pretty much how Guinness records work in the post-Norris McWhirter era). BLP1E definitely doesn't apply; as a "brand ambassador" for Triumph (plus the entire promotional nature of this event), he's certainly not a low-profile individual. But on the other hand, there's a question of how much of the media coverage exists solely because this is a giant international promotional stunt, paid for by his father's company and Triumph. And then, on the gripping hand, whether there was sufficient media attention for him to be notable even if that's exactly what this all is. I'm not sure I know which side of that line I stand on, although the article as it currently stands is clearly an exercise in self-promotion and would need aggressive culling and rewording should it be retained. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 20:29, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Changed to delete. Upon further consideration, taking a stand to delete here. Because this is a one-event biography, and that single event was so directly promotional in nature, I think there's a very real question about whether small-market coverage of the event is "independent" in the traditional sense. That is to say, would Maori Television or Ścigacz or Brake Magazine have covered Lawrey and his global motorcycle tour without the promotional engine behind it working to ensure that people wrote about it where he went? That answer is clearly no, they would not have. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 21:28, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete with a dose of salt. This is clearly an attempt to misuse Wikipedia as a platform for self-promotional PR, in defiance of WP:NOTADVERT. Local media can be easily suckered by a press release claiming a distinction (such as being in the Guinness Book of World Records) that isn't actually true, so if nobody can actually locate verification that his name is in Guinness for holding the record in a recognized Guinness record category, the fact that a couple of media sources have uncritically repeated that claim is not enough. Bearcat (talk) 17:28, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- And that's essentially impossible now. Guinness isn't what it used to be (as you can tell by looking at what current print editions look like). Records of the type Lawrey is claiming are typically published in neither their print edition nor their website. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 17:37, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In Lawrey's defense, what he's doing is not much different from all the names in the recent 20-40 years on List of long-distance motorcycle riders. The list began with the names of riders who had done pioneering rides of extraordinary difficultly. Later it became well-blazed routes being followed on bikes which are specially engineered for the express purpose. Even riders followed by a support crew in a truck. It's either somebody trying to get other people to pay for their vacation, or seeking fame for the sake of fame, or selling books, videos, etc. People like Emilio Scotto have simply been more expert at getting reputable media outlets to publish long features containing facts and claims whose sole source is Emilio Scotto. There's little aggressive fact-checking in the media because nobody cares all that much. Notable, yet not notable?
I've been trying to figure out how you can define list criteria that run on a curve: early feats meet criteria that become progressively stricter as the years go forward. But for now we just go by WP:GNG for all. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:55, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep You are wrong. This is not about "one line in the debate."

1. There were the 3 follow up questions afterwards, which the campaign refused to answer. 2. There has been an ongoing controversy about why Trump has not released his tax returns, which is why the quesiton was asked in the first place, and which I plan to add, but despite the stub tag indicating a work in progress you immediately try to delete my article. What sort of welcome is this? 3. There is the 250 million fraud investigation from NY Attorney General which is referenced in the article, and which is a separte tax issue. 4. There is the recent charity tax fraud unearthed. 5. The people have a right to know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Return of the King (talk • contribs) 18:20, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is a much bigger deal than the Hillary e-mails, which have their own page, or the Obama birther conspiracy, which has its own page. If you delete this page, I ask that you delete those pages, too, in fairness. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Return of the King (talk • contribs) 18:21, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion: Why doesn't everyone here help me expand the page, rather than simply trying to delete it? Destruction of knowledge does not mean the knowledge goes away. Is this a case of "I don't like this, this challenges my world-view, I want to delete it so I can feel warm at night"? Improve the page rather than searching for pages to destroy like a vandal in the night. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Return of the King (talk • contribs) 18:24, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Return of the King: It's unfortunate that your entrance into Wikipedia involves an article for deletion. Despite this, please do stick around; it's nothing personal and this can be a fun place. Nonetheless, the article is in clear violation of several Wikipedia policies, as I've described above. The purpose of these policies is not the achieve "fairness" in the political arena, but to be prudent in Wikipedia's encyclopedic purpose. That being said, there's no need to lob accusations at other editors of bias in editing. This AfD forum is intended as a place for civil discussion of matters in which editors are expected to remove themselves from their own personal, political, and other interests. Ergo Sum 18:32, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. My point remains: this is not really about one line in the debate. There was a reason the question was asked in the first place; it is historically unprecedented for a candidate to not reveal their returns, and there are several independent investigations going on into improprities. I mention the liberal pages because it seems to me that the Trump controversy is as worthy of a page in an encylopedia as these other controversies, which turned out to be much ado about nothing. Even then, if the Trump tax issue turns out to be bogus, there was nothing wrong in having the page, in that there are pages about controversies on other political figures that also turned out to be nothing. And I smell blood in the water here. I'll eat my hat if Trump isn't a tax dodge and I have plenty of sources that I think back the claim that this is notable event receiving scads of coverage.

Note I moved the page to Donald Trump income tax controversy. In case you don't know, tax evasion has a specific meaning and is not the same as not paying or owing income taxes. To me, WP policy on living persons (WP:BLP) required an immediate action. Thoughtmonkey (talk) 18:36, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the move. I did not know this.

Keep or Merge There should be an article on the whole topic of Mr. Trump's income tax returns as related to his presidential campaign. If so merge this one there. If not put ~~some of~~ the other related material here.Thoughtmonkey (talk) 18:39, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This: Donald_Trump_presidential_campaign,_2016#Refusal_to_release_tax_returns is where the info is now.Thoughtmonkey (talk) 18:50, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note - I just want to note for the benefit of Return of the King, who made the original page and is also posting on the AfD. You expressed a concern that "the people have a right to know"... that's the media's job. The question here is whether this issue merits an entire Wikipedia article. I don't think that it does, for the reasons that the AfD OP cited. We can't get caught up in making Wikipedia pages for every political firestorm that comes down the pipe. You implied that the opposition to this page is coming from Trump supporters but I can assure you that I'm not a Trump supporter. I just question whether this mandates its own separate page. Cosmic Sans (talk) 18:45, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This implication about anyone's politics was somewhat overwrought and misguided. However, to rephrase the point I was aiming for in a neutral way, I still think that this is worthy of a page for the same reason that the Obama Birther conspiracy and the Hillary e-mail conspiracy was. Namely, all three controversies have received a lot of independent media coverage. It only got asked about in a presidential debate with 80 million watching because it's important and a lot of people care about it and have written about it. I know the article presently needs work, but I don't have too much more time to spend on it for now, so I'd ask other people to try to help and contribute. Without stating it politically to mean that others are politically motivated if they oppose, I do think this is a controversy of similar importance to other political controversies that have their own pages. There is really a lot out there on this and it has been covered for months. Trump is the first candidate for years not to file returns, and there are multiple elements of the controversy that are just being discovered. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Return of the King (talk • contribs) 18:54, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment To reiterate, Wikipedia articles are not deleted in accordance with how they relate to the balance of political views on Wikipedia. They are kept or deleted in accordance with encyclopedic policies. Whether someone feels that the controversy is worthy of inclusion is irrelevant; only objective notability, such as reliable media coverage not from opinion outlets, standing the test of time, etc. is relevant. My personal views on the controversy are wholly irrelevant, just as the inclusion of some other articles on controversies affecting politicians are. Wikipedia does not maintain equal coverage; it maintains encyclopedic coverage. Ergo Sum 18:53, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Again, fair enough. However, I think you'll find that there has been media coverage of Trump's tax returns in major newspapers nearly every day of the last 365. This is not an ephemeral debate phenomenon; rather, the question was only repeatedly raised during the debate with 80 million watching because it has received so much media coverage and public interest already. Would the question have even been brought up during the debate if it was as non-notable as you claim? I assure you, there are tons of sources. I will try to add more when I have time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Return of the King (talk • contribs) 18:57, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WP:BLP of a person whose only substantive claim of notability is that he was "the first 18-year-old in the United States elected to a town or city position" and that he was later elected president of an organization. Neither of these are claims of notability that confer an automatic inclusion freebie on a person just because they exist, if the reliable sourcing needed to get him over WP:GNG for them isn't there — but what we have here for sourcing is his own primary source website about himself, a directory of video clips of him giving soundbite on the news, and a single news article about him being honoured by the town council that he served on. This is not the depth or volume of sourcing that it takes to get someone over GNG if they don't have an automatic pass of any subject-specific inclusion criterion. (Also, the article was created by an editor with "lyons" in their username, so there's a possible WP:COI here too.) Bearcat (talk) 17:39, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So far all I'm finding are very short, WP:TRIVIAL articles that primarily post pictures and use the plot synopsis to make up the majority of the article, like this and this. These might be RS in another situation, but so far I'm not finding a whole lot to show that it would now pass notability guidelines per NFILM. Most of it is just brief, trivial mentions of it screening. WP:ITEXISTS at this point in time (meaning it released) but that doesn't give notability, nor is it notable because of the people starring in the film. The claims in the article are all suspect, as they are not backed up by any independent sources. Given that there was a very concentrated effort to promote this film and its production company in the past, that makes them even more suspect. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 10:38, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and salt. While this seems like it should have more coverage given the people in the film, there still isn't enough coverage out there to justify this film passing WP:NFILM. It exists and has notable people in it, but neither of these things give notability. The broad majority of sources that have written about this film have only made brief, trivial articles - and some just outright reprint the press releases like this one. I'm aware that it's difficult for African films to gain coverage, but it's still necessary and there's not really anything here to suggest that offline sources exist or that if they do, that they're anything different from the sources I've found thus far. The award listed on the page is not the type that would give notability on Wikipedia, either partially or completely. This is not a knock against the festival, it's just that there are so many film festivals out there that the festivals and/or awards have to be independently notable in order to give any sort of notability. Most film festivals don't give this level of notability. It also doesn't help that the only source I could find about the festival shows that it won second place - not first place like it was implied in the article. I've since changed this. Being a runner up or in second place doesn't really give notability on Wikipedia even if the award was notable - typically notability is only given if the person/film/etc wins first prize. Since this is the fifth time that someone has tried to create this article, I'd recommend salting this entry as well to deter recreation before notability guidelines are met.

Keep - This film is notable and a milestone in African Cinema. There are very few African animations on wikipedia and more should be created and added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:51F5:7B00:24DB:9462:63F5:B168 (talk) 19:58, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You must provide coverage to show where this film is notable. Also, while it'd be nice to have more African animated films on Wikipedia, these films must still pass notability guidelines and they cannot remain on here simply because there aren't many on here and that it'd be nice to have more coverage on the various films. That's just not how Wikipedia operates. If you can show proof of coverage then that'd be different. I'm aware that some publications don't publish their work online, but there has to be something that can be verified and is an in-depth, independent RS in order for the film to pass NFILM. Saying that it should be kept for this or that reason without providing RS to back it up (that would pass muster at RS/N) doesn't really help much here, especially given that there was a concentrated effort to promote this movie on Wikipedia.

Comment: KingstOOn festival is a World bank event. If all the references provided in the article is true then this is nothing but public information and not promotion as suggested. A simple search on google will turn up lots of articles and videos on it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:51F5:7B00:24DB:9462:63F5:B168 (talk) 08:05, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You would essentially have to provide coverage to show that this event is notable, enough to where it would warrant its own article. Raw Google search results cannot establish notability for an event because the results could be predominantly primary, be junk hits, or be some other type of hit that wouldn't be considered a notability giving reliable source on Wikipedia. Basically you can't just argue that something is notable (or conversely, non-notable) based on the specific number of Google hits for a search term because any search process will bring up non-relevant and non-usable results, regardless of where you search but especially with Google. See WP:GHITS for more information on this. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 07:48, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to block them for block evasion and I'm also going to open up a SPI for the IPs. I'd recommend leaving this open for the time being, though. It looks likely that this will be deleted and this will help prevent future attempts at recreation, as the past AfD only pertained to the film in its unreleased state.

NPOV issue Furfurel (talk) 15:15, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I request the deletion - as well as the protection against re-creation - without having tried beforehand to better the article by contributing to it. I don't want to create content for this article in order to first avoid any potential conflict of interest WP:COI. Here is the reason why: I act on behalf of Mr Zappelli. I receive a compensation for this.

I want to respect la behavioral guideline about assuming good faith. Wikipedia:Assume_good_faith I am therefore accusing nobody. Indeed, the informations I currently own do not allow me to claim that there is any intention to harm. Nevertheless, in effect, in fact and according to "the subject of history" Mr Zappelli himself, the article is harmful. I want to emphasize the fact that it is handicap when it comes to Mr. Zappelli's current professional activities.

A lack of encyclopedic rigor makes this article fail to respect the "Neutral point of view" policy WP:NPOV, one of the five Wikipedia pillars. WP:5P2, by giving it a negative tone. This article also harms Wikipedia itself by its lack of encyclopedic quality.

You can read more in details about this here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Daniel_Zappelli#NPOV_issue

Biographies of living persons ("BLPs") must be written conservatively and with regard for the subject's privacy. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid: it is not Wikipedia's job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives; the possibility of harm to living subjects must always be considered when exercising editorial judgment.

Given their potential impact on biography subjects' lives, biographies must be fair to their subjects at all times.

Keep. As I already noted on the article's talk page the first time this was attempted, Wikipedia does not give article subjects the right to veto our having of an article about them. In the case of a low-profile figure whose notability claim and sourceability aren't particularly strong, we can take the subject's wishes into consideration under WP:BIODEL — but even then, there still have to be other reasons why the article might be deletable besides the subject's own wishes alone. And a person who has a clean pass of an inclusion criterion, such as a high profile state-level holder of a notable political office, definitely gets no special rights to control the existence of an article about him. If there are neutrality or BLP issues here, they can be resolved through the normal editing process — but Zappelli does not get to unilaterally decree himself off limits as an article topic.

It seemed like I should be able to establish notability for this person, but I haven't been able to. The two books that had been described as "top-rated" before I edited the text get 17 and 25 Google hits respectively, so they can't be very well known. I searched for "sarah pearce" "location location location" and "sarah pearce" "save our home" and got 28 and 14 hits, respectively. Even the show Save Our Home on TVNZ itself gets only 24 hits for "save our home" tvnz, so it can't be a notable show.

Delete In a google search doesn't appear to have strong enough sourcing to justify a keep.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:52, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Most sources on this individual are in Spanish and located with his name plus "Coopeagri" to weed out rrelevant results, but there is a fair bit of it, see search. I found two English language sources:
- http://www.fairtrade.org.uk/en/farmers-and-workers/coffee/coopeagri (On CoopeAgri)
- http://southerncostaricanews.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=205:coopeagris-coffee-history-continues-to-grow&catid=69:southern-news

I'd suggest pinging the Costa Rica and Cooperatives wikiprojects to have their editors do additional review. Folks like this from the Global south often present challenges for verifying content, but are in their own right, quite notable. Montanabw^(talk) 00:11, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As usual, no sources offered by Montana are anywhere near valid for demonstrating notability:
- ~~http://www.fairtrade.org.uk/en/farmers-and-workers/coffee/coopeagri~~ About the business; doesn't mention the subject of this article at all.
- ~~http://southerncostaricanews.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=205:coopeagris-coffee-history-continues-to-grow&catid=69:southern-news~~ One totally trivial mention of the subject.

If anyone else wants to search, it helps to know how to use Google. A focused search string like "Claudio Gamboa Calderón" Coopeagri -wikipedia is a good start for eliminating irrelevant results, and it reveals how utterly unnotable the subject really is. The zero results in a news search is also a good clue. —swpb^T 13:40, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest these sources only confirm that this article should be deleted based on a lack of notability and reliable secondary sources. Allow me to comment on each of these "good sources":

[18] - two paragraph promo; no biographical content.
[19] - two paragraph promo; no biographical content.
[20] - primary source (interview).
[21] - primary source (interview).
[22] - vacuous, National Inquirer style commentary about a "beef" this person is having with Young Dolph. Hopefully, "Dolph you a bitch, you a soft ass n*a, if you got a problem, say you got a problem" cannot be reasonably interpreted as meaningful biographical content.
[23] - this is a report of an encounter this person had with the police. These are reported in the media thousands of times each day across the country; it does not make the person reported on notable.
[24] - a short biographical article in a local newspaper.
[25] - a short biographical article in a local newspaper.
[26] - a paragraph-long review of one of his songs.
[27] - another report of his encounter with the police; no biographical content.

User:Xboxmanwar is indeed correct, this biography is rich in interviews (a primary source) and thin on reliable secondary sources, which is why is should be deleted. "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject", per WP:BASIC.

Keep Poor article but that's not a reason to delete the charting with a guest vocal and the reliable sources shown by BigGuy make him pass GNG. It needs work, not deletion.

Wikipedia:Notability (music) specifically states: "meeting any of these criteria does not mean that an article must be kept. Rather, these are rules of thumb used by some editors when deciding whether or not to keep an article that is listed at articles for deletion".

Keep WP:NHOOPS includes a provision of "or a similar major professional sports league." He played six games in the Polish Basketball League. So I think the question is if the PBL is high enough to qualify as a major professional league. The wikipedia page says its professional and their champions have historically, including the year he played, automatically qualified for the regular season of the Euroleague. To me, that is enough to say he meets the presumption. RonSigPi (talk) 23:21, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The PBL doesn't specifically meet the guideline and I don't think it is accurate to say that every player who has ever played even one game in the league should be presumed notable, as is generally true of the leagues specifically named. If he played in Euroleague games that would be a different matter. Best bet would be to prove that this subject meets WP:GNG, as this supersedes any sport guideline anyway. If it can't be proven he meets GNG then the article should be deleted. Rikster2 (talk) 13:25, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Filth City

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

Delete. Poorly sourced article about a television film and web series, which was only in the post-production stage at the time of creation and still has not verifiably been scheduled by the host broadcaster or actually premiered on the web apart from one single advance preview episode on YouTube. This is based on just two pieces of reliable source coverage about it, of which one is local coverage of a scheduling incident in the city where the project was being filmed -- and all I can find on a Google News search is brief acknowledgements of its existence as a project in development, and nothing that indicates its actual debut is imminent. So there's no WP:GNG claim here yet either. In addition, this article was created by the film's own producers, in defiance of our conflict of interest rules. No prejudice against recreation if and when it gains coverage by actually airing, but projects that are still in the production pipeline aren't granted an automatic presumption of notability per WP:NMEDIA unless much more substantial sourcing can be shown than this.

Keep I found a number of articles about her in German, and while I admittedly don't speak German, rough English translations (not to mention the amount of coverage that came up from an English-language search engine) suggest that she meets the GNG.

Not at all convinced with those sources. 1. I'm not sure what this is. It's in a piece called Blogging World of Women and pairs up 6 different ladies from different walks of life. 2. is a bio by the Paralympic committee, like they do with most athletes. 3. is simply a match description. 4. is actually a real piece that is the first we've seen that is even remotely good. 5. Just a passing mention. 6. is just a score. 7. is just a score. Not enough to make her a notable personality to me. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:40, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is not enough for GNG. Fyunck(click)'s analysis of the sources is spot on. Trivial mentions, routine sports coverage (scores) and a directory listing does not help to satisfy GNG.

Delete - Subject lacks notability and significant coverage in reliable sources. Meatsgains (talk) 18:32, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

REASONS TO KEEP THIS PAGE ACTIVE:

- The artist is credited in at least three major productions from huge Television Networks, with reliable references already added to its article.

- There are many thousands of articles on Wikipedia with "not enough sources" to prove their total content, and nobody simply deletes them just because of that. So it would be unfair to do it with this page, and don't do it with all the thousands of other pages in this same situation.

- All of the movies and TV series mentioned in the page are easily verifiable on IMDb (links are below!), and some of them are also on YouTube.

- This article was created by me ("Culturalvendas.uy"), and then, it was proposed to deletion by the user "Reddogsix" (A MONTH AGO), and then, it was undeleted (saved) by the user "Atlantic306" (a month ago, also). So, in theory, this page was already approved by the Wikipedia community. Wikipedia had already approved this page, 30 days ago. So, according to Wikipedia's policy: nobody should try to delete an article that was previously considered for deletion, and then "undeleted" (saved) by users. This rule is available in the Wikipedia Page about "Deletions". Please check it out!

- I can perfectly specify the seasons of "Malhação" in which the actor has been. There are YouTube videos with his scenes in at least two seasons. However, he's been to more seasons, but Rede Globo (the production company and distributor) doesn't allow its content on YouTube, because they have their own video platform for web and mobile, called "Globo Play". So it's almost impossible to find episodes of TV Series and Telenovelas from Rede Globo on YouTube. In the scenes, he works with the Main Actors from the series. Two videos are right below.

LINKS FOR TWO DIFFERENT SEASONS OF "MALHAÇÃO" (TV SERIES): - http://youtube.com/watch?v=MnBCwAWTQC4 - Some of the scenes with Gustavo Goulart in the Season 2010. - http://youtube.com/watch?v=5D5yM0PU9SI - Some of the scenes with Gustavo Goulart in the Season 2011.

- Regarding to "Paraíso Tropical", it seems like he wasn't the Lead Actor. I made a mistake. He was a Supporting Actor, and not in all episodes. Probably around 70% of the episodes. That's why he's never been credited in the opening credits. It was a Guest Starring character. I could perfectly make this update to the page. Please note that the References to it, ARE ALREADY in the References List of the article "Gustavo Goulart".

- I know that Wikipedia doesn't recognize IMDb as a Reference, but I'm gonna send IMDb links for each one of the Films that he's been. I ask you to please consider that IMDb does have REQUIREMENTS to add a New Title (film or series) to its database. If you don't believe it, it's simple: you try to create a New Title on IMDb, without any internet link to prove its existence. I'm sure they will reject the creaton of your New Title.

LINKS TO THE MOVIES (with names in their original languages): - http://imdb.com/title/tt2474028 - "Minha Família" ("My Family") - http://imdb.com/title/tt2431816 - "Apenas Mais Uma De Amor" ("Nothing But a Love Song") - http://imdb.com/title/tt2474036 - "Amor Terminal" ("The Last Words") - http://imdb.com/title/tt2735358 - "The Adventures of Sheriff Kid McLain" - http://imdb.com/title/tt5980720 - "Walking After You"

- I could also send links for his TV Series on IMDb, if needed. As an example: the brazilian version of "Whose Line Is It Anyway" has an official channel on YouTube, with over 200,000 views. It's more audience than a lot of TV Shows that we see around the world, right? And this TV Show was also broadcasted on Television, 6 years ago. However, only in the internet (without considering the TV audience), they already had over 200,000 views. And Gustavo Goulart is not only the main Actor of this show, but also its Director and Producer. LINK: http://youtube.com/semsaidavideos

- I know Wikipedia doesn't show "numbers of views" in its pages, but if you could have access to this information, you would notice that Gustavo Goulart has been probably having a good number of views per week on Wikipedia, because he does have fans and people that supports him. Once again, I know this is not considered by Wikipedia, but PLEASE CHECK his Official Twitter Account, so you can notice that this artist has a great number of fans and followers: http://twitter.com/gusway (120,000 followers) - As I've said before, I know that Wikipedia doesn't take it seriously. I'm just providing this social media to prove to you that Gustavo Goulart is popular, and known by over a hundred thousand people.

- Lastly, I feel like I should mention that the user "Nyanchoka" hasn't been quite helpful to me (as you can check in the end of his Talk Page, right here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Nyanchoka). I am a new user here, and I've tried (more than once) to ask him for HELP about "how to keep this article active", and he never gave me a great support. He was the one who decided to propose this article for deletion, and he is not even trying to be helpful to me, so I FEEL LOST HERE, and don't know what to do in order to keep this page here. I don't even know how am I supposed to try to prove the importance of this article to the Wikipedia community. I have the evidences. But nobody has ever said to me how to proceed, and Wikipedia sounds pretty complicated for new users. SO PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Delete. Poorly sourced biography of a person notable only as a non-winning candidate for political office. This is not a claim of notability that passes WP:NPOL in and of itself, but the sourcing here is nowhere near getting him over WP:GNG instead -- the article is based almost entirely on primary and unreliable sources, with just two pieces of actual reliable source coverage which both just namecheck his existence rather than being about him. None of this, neither the quality of sourcing nor the substance of what it's there to support, is good enough. Bearcat (talk) 09:56, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, can you please point out which ones are primary??? Thanks Karl Twist (talk) 10:01, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Every single thing not from the Los Angeles Times. Notability is not supported by the internal newsletters of his own political party; notability is not supported by an alumni obituary on the website of his own alma mater; notability is not supported by paid death notices; notability is not supported by a person's "our staff" profile on the website of his own employer or "our members" profile on the website of an organization he was directly affiliated with; notability is not supported by the press releases of a university that named a scholarship after him. It's supported by media coverage, media coverage, media coverage, media coverage and/or media coverage, and nothing else. Bearcat (talk) 21:06, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. In addition to being referenced in many books and having the Joseph Fuhrig Private Enterprise Scholarship named after him (not saying that makes him notable), he was a Libertarian governor candidate and well-known and has historical notability in Libertarian politics. Yes the article was hastily put together and needs improvement. Karl Twist (talk) 11:49, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The problem with the sources are not that they are primary, although some are (e.g., birth record), but that they are not independent. Most come from sources close to the subject (school, university, party), etc. I can not find sufficient independent coverage to warrant a keep per WP:GNG and can not see how he qualifies for inherent notability (e.g., per WP:POLITICIAN or WP:ACADEMIC. I would be glad to be proved wrong. No longer a penguin (talk) 13:10, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Primary sourcing includes non-independent sourcing (e.g. a person's staff profile on the website of their own employer is still a primary source even though it's technically on an affiliated website instead of their own personal website.) So "primary" and "not independent" are not actually mutually exclusive terminologies. Bearcat (talk) 21:20, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am not arguing that they are. I am just less sure about the fact that they are primary than that they are non-independent. "Generally, accounts written after the fact with the benefit (and possible distortions) of hindsight are secondary". Most of the sources were written with the benefit of hindsight, although to what extent they rely on primary sources and not unpublished personal knowledge is tough to tell. However, that is not important here at all - primary or not, they are not independent and can not be used to establish the notability of the subject.

Delete. Article, based on a mix of primary sources and purely localized media coverage, of a person notable only as a non-winning candidate for county supervisor (which is not an WP:NPOL pass) and as a local environmental activist with local groups (which is not a pass of our notability standards for activists.) Of the 32 references cited here, 17 of them are primary sources that cannot support notability at all -- and of the remaining 15 that are real reliable source coverage, every last one of them is local to his own city and many of them just glancingly namecheck his existence rather than being about him. Nothing here is substantive enough, or sourced well enough, to earn him permanent coverage in an international encyclopedia. If this were Santacruzpedia, sure. But it's not.

Keep, Notable historical preservation activist. Known and noted outside Santa Cruz. He's done work in other parts of California. Appeared on television multiple times.

If he were a notable historical preservation activist who was known and noted outside Santa Cruz, then he would be sourceable beyond the Bay Area's own local media alone. But exactly none of the reliable sources here leave the Bay Area. Appearing on television as a talking head on the news is not a notability freebie, if reliable source coverage isn't writing about the television appearances. And as for your "keenness" comment, do you even have a clue how the deletion process works? By definition, the page isn't created until I save it, so the moment of page creation and the timestamp on the nomination statement are always going to inherently be the exact same time.

Delete. WP:BLP of a person notable primarily as an officeholder at the county level, which is not a level of office that gets a person over WP:NPOL -- and the one thing here that might make her more notable than the norm for a county recorder, the controversy around long lines in the primaries, still just makes her a WP:BLP1E. While her name can certainly be mentioned in United States presidential election in Arizona, 2016, this is not grounds for a standalone BLP of her as a person separately from that.

The event has national coverage; that coverage is not about her in a substantive enough manner to make her a suitable topic for a standalone BLP separate from the article on the event. Notability is not inherited, so the fact that it's Maricopa County does not entitle her to special treatment different from the way we would handle this if it were any other county in the United States.

Subject barely has enough notable credits to have her article. Probably WP:TOOSOON. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 09:20, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Those are notable anime shows as they have been adapted into English. And she stars in them. That's WP:ENT right there. How is that barely? I have added news articles and interviews to these roles and that's only from the first google news search. Barely = 1 role. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 09:48, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Magica Wars has never been adapted to English. That's not a very notable show, then. Also, Tsunomi (Wizard Barristers) is not a main role, but main supporting. You even said it yourself - look at how the roles are grouped on ANN, right? Tsunomi is grouped in the second category. So I assert my claim once again that the subject barely has any notable credits; only 2 so far (Yurikuma Arashi and Penguindrum). --Sk8erPrince (talk) 10:00, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Magica Wars is available for streaming with English subtitles on Crunchyroll. Not that the suggestion it isn't notable without it holds up.SephyTheThird (talk) 10:26, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, then I shall clarify myself - what I mean by "English adaption" is whether or not the show has received a dub. In Miho's case, the three shows that she played a significant role in - Penguindrum, Wizard Barristers, and Yurikuma Arashi have dubs.

Lack of dubs still shouldn't be used as an assumption of notability. Setting aside the 'day one" streaming of subtitled versions, companies are again issuing sub only releases. SephyTheThird (talk) 11:08, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'd still argue that Magica Wars is not notable, but that's not the main topic here. So, moving on... --Sk8erPrince (talk) 11:15, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ANN doesn't necessarily determine the hierarchy of the roles. You should also look at Cast/Staff for the anime show itself. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 10:29, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Angus, you SUGGESTED me to use ANN's grouping system to determine the hierachy of the roles, would you like to me directly quote you? --Sk8erPrince (talk) 10:48, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You'll also notice she goes on all the promos for the show as a starring member. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 10:31, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ANN's got a very limited grouping system; they usually pick the 1-2 top stars in a show and usually just the protagonists, grouping everyone else as supporting or lower. They're not authoritative on that, but if you need to know which actors carry the show, that's one way to decide. Cast/Staff anime lists pick the top 6-10 people and those can be deemed star billing and significant roles in the production. Like I said, that she is touring with the promo events suggests she might have a starring role. If she tours with 2 others and there are like 3-5 stars in cast/staff, then probably yes she's a star for that show. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 11:20, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'll take your point on "incomparable", but not so much on her marriage. Her marriage that does assert to any sort of notability. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 09:24, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Having three significant roles in major anime meets WP:ENT #1. Naruto, Gintama, and Danganronpa are all major enough. Orochimaru is a notable Naruto character early on in the series. I can't say much about Otose, but given her recurring position in the show and that the anime has like 201+ episodes, I'd say she's notable. She also has a recurring role in the various You're Under Arrest! anime series as the Scooter Mama. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 09:56, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Are there any additional sources such as interviews and news coverage to assert the subject's notability? If there is, please add them. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 10:05, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Gintama is currently 0ver 300 and will still go up. It also has an extremely large ensemble cast who appear at various rates. It's also largely episodic but will occasionally have an arc so characters will come and go as and when. Otose is one of the bigger recurring characters and has large roles in several of those arcs as well as the "as and when" appearances.SephyTheThird (talk) 10:09, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Otose's importance is up for debate and would not be enough to keep the article on it's own. However when combined with other roles, especially Orochimaru I think the argument in favour of keep is stronger than the deletion argument.

El Makarna

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

I am undecided as to whether this is a hoax or if it is done in good faith. But as far as I can understand, there is no such thing as a dish called "el makarna". "Makarna" is a Turkish name for pasta or macaroni, more specificly a Turkish type of pasta. It is also used as a generic name for a number of pasta dishes, like "fırında makarna" (in the oven), "salçalı makarna" (with sauce), "etli makarna" (with meat), "yogurtlu makarna" (with yoghurt) etc. But "el makarna" is something different. "El" in Turkish means hand, and a Google search for "el makarna" -wikipedia gives less than 100 hits, most of them concerned with different kind of pasta machines or descriptions of how to make pasta by hand. Searching for recipes gives 4 hits, none of them seems relevant. Searching with "tarifi" (Turkish for recipe) gives 25 hits. Some of these are recipes for making pasta by hand, not one of them seems to match the description given in the article.

Some words about the contents. As for the comparison ("very similar") with spaghetti alla carbonara, I do not see it. No eggs, no bacon, no black pepper. Then, the external links: The first one is about "fırında makarna" (pasta in the oven), which is quite different from the description. No "el" mentioned in the text, "hand" is mentioned about preparing meatballs. No relevance. The second link is actually about "el makarna" (hand made pasta), but has no similarity with the description in the article. No cheese or olive oil, just flour, egg, water and salt, and no way made in 12 minutes.

Google search shows up nothing but fansites; relevant sources are nil. Only significant role is Misao Kusakabe from Lucky Star, but even then, that's only a main supporting role.

Minoru Shiraishi

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

Google search only shows up three articles from ANN. One regarding the subject using someone else's dojin without their permission, another regarding his marriage, and the last one was about his facial paralysis. NONE of these articles scream notability. Looking at the list of roles he has, the subject has yet to voice as a main role, only main supporting characters at best. I do not believe the subject is notable enough to warrant his own article. Sk8erPrince (talk) 05:30, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletion discussions. --SephyTheThird (talk) 08:18, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment He's a major character in Lucky Star where he stars as himself, and that's the only one that screams notability. He's in the main cast for DN Angel. In the new Initial D films, he has a main cast role as Itsuki Takeuchi. Taniguchi in Haruhi Suzumiya is a supporting. Sakamoto in Nichijou is a main cast character. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 10:23, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sakamoto (Group 2) is part of the supporting cast, and so is Takeshi (DN Angel, Group 3). Minoru himself did appear on Lucky Star, yes, but as part of the supporting cast (Group 2). Only Itsuki (Initial D) could really be counted as a main role, but even then, it isn't as well known as his appearance on Lucky Star as a supporting character. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 10:40, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

He still counts as a significant role in Lucky Star as he is listed in the cast section [39] [40]. He and Akira host the Lucky Channel segment at the end of each episode. On the anime page he even has his own twitter prominently listed. [41] That ANN even bothered with 3 articles about his personal life was because of Lucky Star. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:27, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So we're down with only two significant roles, then. That still doesn't mean the subject is notable aside from his work from Lucky Star and Initial D. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 19:13, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sakamoto's a main character in Nichijou. He's listed among the six main characters. [42]. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:11, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Then we're down to debate whether or not the subject appearing as himself in Lucky Star is really that notable. The character himself is supporting; almost on the same level as Misao Kusakabe. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 23:11, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No, Akira and Minori in Lucky Star are star-level when it comes to the anime. He is practically cult-like popular for his performance there as with Nabeshin, so if it turns out the article doesn't meet notability then a direct to his character in Lucky Star would be appropriate. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:12, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No, this is not a case of WP:BEFORE. I did try to look up relevant sources for the subject, and to no avail. WP:ENT cannot be applied either because the subject lacks enough significant roles. My analysis has led me to believe that the subject's list of roles does not stack up to the level of Miho Arakawa's (whom I previously nominated for deletion).

Speedy Keep - Nominator states on their talk page that they are "very careful about choosing who to nominate for deletion" and will not nominate "VERY notable seiyu like Kotono Mitsuishi and Megumi Ogata". Yet goes to nominate a veteran seiyuu at the very top of the industry. I have no words. No polite ones at least. _dk (talk) 07:49, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Go on, say what you're going to say. "Top of the industry"? Where's your source that supports your claim? Your claim isn't validated just because you think she is notable. Is that an empty claim that I could just dismiss? You could be a veteran VA, and STILL not be notable (See Mark Stoddard and Ed Blaylock). I nominated the subject because she is only notable for two things; there is PLENTY of room to doubt her notability. I choose not to nominate Megumi nor Kotono because both of them have WAY more significant roles that nominating them for deletion is beyond ridiculous. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 09:28, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Doraemon is a global cultural icon beyond EVA, we should not have to descend to your level of trolling or ignorance to satisfy whatever you're trying to achieve here (nothing beneficial, I'm sure). You've said elsewhere you didn't even do the bare minimum while looking for things to delete, and that you don't bother searching for Japanese sources because you don't understand the language. Well, those are the things you are supposed to have done before nominating for deletion. There are pages of articles of Oyama both in English and Japanese That you have no idea what you are doing nor have you made the bare minimum to gauge her notability puts you in a very negative light. In my opinion, your drive-by nominations in this nature have been nothing but disruptive. This is the best reply I can do politely, the impolite version would just be two words. _dk (talk) 11:21, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Trolling my foot. I don't need the likes of you to tell what I should do and I should not do. And I also don't need you to tell me whether or not I've been disruptive as of late. That certainly isn't for YOU to decide, are we clear? Granted, I am new to this, but when an AFD is made, YOU are to make your assertions clear, do you understand? All your bold statements aren't relevant arguments to state your case. Angus already told me what I should do, anyway. He's a good fella (unlike you). I don't need your opinion, so you can get off of my case, OR stay away from my nominations. I'm in need of more capable voters anyway (yeah, that means NOT YOU). Anyway, seeing as Angus has provided siginificant sources for the subject, I'll see to it that the AFD be withdrawn. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 11:43, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I couldn't find anything on "Marie Lewis" at judoinside.com, but I could when I looked for "Mary Lewis". Perhaps this article should be renamed to "Mary Lewis (judoka)". I have updated and sourced the article, though I left the title unchanged. I'm inclined to support notability to anyone who wins a medal at a world championship of a major organization, especially when she was also a four time U.S. champion and finished in the top 3 nine times. I would say WP:MANOTE and WP:NSPORT are met, although I couldn't find the significant coverage needed for WP:GNG. I think it's worth pointing out that women's judo wasn't an Olympic sport until 1988, so the women's world championships were clearly the highest level at the time. Papaursa (talk) 01:02, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tomosa Murata

Tomosa Murata only has Yuno Gasai as her major role; that only does NOT make her notable, regardless of how many times the "Yuki Yuki" meme and video loop have been shared on the internet. No news coverage, and no strong and reliable sources. I deem the subject as non-notable. Sk8erPrince (talk) 01:16, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep or redirect to Future Diary. Well this is weird. In addition to Yuno Gasai, she has a role in Girl Friend Beta. Searching for Japanese sources surprisingly came up nearly empty, and I had less luck with an English search, which is surprising considering Future Diary's popularity in the West (it was far less popular in Japan; the anime didn't sell well there). Nevertheless, Yuno Gasai is popular enough that perhaps the article could pass WP:ENTERTAINER by the smallest of margins. But if consensus determines that she isn't independently notable, a redirect to Future Diary (as a possible search term) would be a far preferable option to deletion. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 03:15, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

References and sources are nil. IMDB does not count because it is generally understood as unreliable. Non-notable actor that has not made any groundbreaking achievements to deserve his own article; no news coverage. Sk8erPrince (talk) 01:09, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment this is another Odex dub actor from Singapore. This will depend on that dub's notability in general. He voices in One Piece and Yu-Gi-Oh as main characters. Recommend delsorting to singapore. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 10:49, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Odex dubs are not notable in the least. I believe several people could attest to that. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 10:56, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Per discussion on WT:ANIME, the Odex dub should be considered notable as the main dub in Singapore and that notability of the actor should not be based on whether Odex is more notable than Funimation or vice-versa. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:49, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment He's got a bunch of major roles (One Piece, Case Closed) but it's all for the Singapore / Odex dub, which the notability is questionable.

I don't believe Odex dubs are notable. If anything, the notability of the One Piece and Case Closed Funimation dubs are way higher.

Not sure no solid evidence of notability. Though that they got extensive coverage in Trouser Press indicates they may in fact be of note - David Gerard (talk) 07:36, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete The references convey existence but not notability, and the single source is just a name check. So my weak vote is based on that. However, David Gerard references extensive coverage in Trouser Press, a solid source for 80's era independent bands. Yet my search turns up only a bio entry at Trouser Press site, which like similar unsourced bios may be promotional and cannot be used to gauge notability. David Gerard where are the examples of extensive coverage? I'll gladly change my vote if these sources can be cited.ShelbyMarion (talk) 18:10, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I didn't have them either, that's why I said "not sure" instead of "keep" ;-) Don't see how Trouser Press would be promotional. In fact, here's the book version of what I linked above. And, delving more into the dark world of paper, here we have an extensive article in CMJ New Music Monthly from 1996, and that and Trouser Press swing it to keep for me. And a CMJ New Music Monthly review and a book mention, Spin and Option just to bludgeon the point home. The present article is terrible, but given the extensive printed coverage in Trouser Press' book and in that CMJ piece, plus the fact they got a pile of print coverage at the time, I'm pretty confident they're not only article-worthy but article-feasible - David Gerard (talk) 19:07, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Where I take issue (no pun intended) with the coverage is that it all pretty much says they never got out of the Chicago scene, and none of those sources indicates that they had any lasting effect on other bands. On a first run-through, it all still seems very WP:LOCAL. Also, some specific points: that CMJ New monthly review is a namedrop on another single, and it doesn't even make it clear we're talking about the same group - the Abramson mentioned wasn't in the band, the band never released on Telstar Records and the article indicates they had broken up in 1995, so they wouldn't be releasing new music in 1996. The "book mention" is published by Cengage, which in my experience custom prints textbook pieces for courses, so this may be SPS. Frankly, I'm skeptical of "directories" that cover thousands of acts in a few hundred pages - I'm not sure how depth can be argued there, and of the two you mention, the first one has 2300 entries, the second has 3600. I'm just not seeing the organic whole of significant ongoing coverage or influence. I'm only really seeing the one good article, and it's not really making a strong case, as it's a summation of their career - they're broken up at the end of the article. However, I will dig through again and see if anything jumps out at me as really "making it" as I would expect. The other issue is that I wanted to compare it to similar acts, but I can't; the really notable indies get a lot of coverage despite being indie, so there isn't the same type of problem. KMFDM,The New York Dolls, Sam Black Church, etc. all still resonate today. In the latter case I saw a photo of one of the guys from Alice in Chains with an SBC shirt or hoodie, and SBC just had a doc film come out about them screened in NY. I just don't see that kind of resonance being shown here, you know? MSJapan (talk) 19:54, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    - Trouser Press bothering to have an entry in their print edition is pretty good prima facie evidence IME that a band is of enough note to cover in Wikipedia - for these purposes it counts as a specialist encyclopedia - and the articles make pretty good references. I mean, your argument is literally that you don't believe in specialist encyclopedias. Maybe you don't, but Wikipedia's taken cues from halfway reliable ones literally since it started; and Trouser Press is one of the key notable critical sources widely used across music articles in Wikipedia. For the print coverage - it was a whole other world before the Internet, and I was there; this stuff is evidence IME that this would have been a band warranting coverage at the time, and the material there is enough to write an actually good article from and evidence that more contemporary print would have been pretty much certain to exist - David Gerard (talk) 20:17, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      - FYI, David Gerard I was there, too, my first job working for a small music scene publication called Hot Potato (don't bother googling: you'll find no evidence of it's brief existence!) which was contemporary to Trouser Press. Just so you know, the print edition of Trouser Press had folded before this band even existed, so their only connection with Trouser Press is the listing in the encyclopedia. I'm still troubled by this articles lack of references. One cannot assume based on your argument. That said, I agree with you that they likely received some sort of coverage to merit an entry in the TP guide. But what and where is it? It wasn't in Trouser Press magazine, and as MSJapan points out, the guide has over 3000 entries, indicative of a different (possibly lower?) standard of inclusion than what we deal with at wikipedia. I'm still leaning towards a weak delete until at least something of substance can be cited in the article. The sole provided reference to the zine "Pure" seems comparable to my old employer "Hot Potato", a period equivalent to a modern day blog. ShelbyMarion (talk) 22:53, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, the sources seem to be significantly written by you, in your capacity as the editor of Astronomia.pl portal.

The only other source is the article on the anniversary from Urania ([67]), but it is not digitized, and I am afraid given your involvement here and possible COI, I'd like to see the article to verify it was not written by someone connected to astronomia.pl before considering it as an independent source. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:31, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge / Redirect to homophobia. The neologism got some traction -- enough to be mentioned in the main article, but not enough coverage sufficiently distinct from homophobia to justify a stand-alone article. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 18:14, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep as far as notability is concerned. I do not think there is a need for a medical source for a sociological concept, and there are reputable sources; but OTOH that could easily be merged and redirected.

However, I strongly advocate to delete the impact section that reads As a culture becomes less homophobic and there is less of a stigma around physical platonic affection between men, the lives of heterosexual men are improved, as they are less aggressive and physically alienated from one another.. I accessed the source, and while it does quote a few other papers to that effect, (1) it stinks of "pet theory promotion", so I think better sources are required, and (2) it is written non-neutrally ("heterosexual men's lives are improved" -> based on which criteria? I am sure some American evangelicals would be happier if the American society was more homophobic). Tigraan^{Click here to contact me} 16:31, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Expresso's article is good.
Diario de noticias actualy talk about the NOS D"Bandada fest, I don't think it is relevant.
Jornal de noticias does talk about the band.
RTP (portuguese public tv) does talk about the band.
Diário Digital doesn't look like a reliable source, and pt:Diário Digital does not exist (it was deleted for lack of reliable sources).
Público article looks good to me.

I also found a review in Les Inrocks : [68]

In a nutshell : a few of the sources are solid and make the article notable. Regards, Comte0 (talk) 21:54, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

comment. I concurr with User:Comte0's assessment of the sources. In short: "Expresso (newspaper)" and "Público (Portugal)" are similar, dated from and about the album release. "Jornal de Noticias" and "RTP" are about participation in two festivals (Paredes de Coura, a major one over here, and another not so notorious). All four articles are about the band. The sources cover most of the main portuguese newspappers. A quick search shows at a least a listing at this year's Paredes de Coura festival, also at Correio da Manhã [69], so it covers all major newspapers. Except for Jornal de Noticias, the link has no connection that I can see with the band. Diário Digital sure is not the best of sources and anyway it adds nothing to the other (listing of Paredes de Coura bands). Does it make it notable? I guess it is marginal, they have participated in some of the major music festivals (but as a hot national prospect, not a 'main' band) and they do have one album released. - Nabla (talk) 19:17, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak merge to ARM architecture: I found that source, though it has the stench of a copy-pasted press report; it supports the article's assertions.

Keep. It took some searching since these titles brought up a surprisingly large amount of non-relevant hits, but I found enough reviews for his work to justify a weak keep at this point in time. If we can find the reviews from the UK sci-fi mag outlets then that'd push it to a more solid keep but I won't count those until we see them since we can't guarantee the depth of coverage and all that good stuff.

Keep I stupidly nominated it for CSD before looking at the history. This actually was broadcast on IFC, and still exists on Youtube, but an IP editor trashed the page. It needs updates, but it does appear notable. Jergling (talk) 14:45, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

promotional article on non notable software company. All the refs are either from their own website, or are press releases, or are mere notices. DGG ( talk ) 20:48, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:PROMO. With sections on History, Functionality and Funding, the purpose of the article is solely to promote the business. The company does not meet WP:NCORP; likewise, I'm unable to find sufficient RS to meet GNG. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:28, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment promotion for a non notable copany. DGG ( talk ) 23:50, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as the nominator is exact with the analysis, I meant to comment sooner and say that all sources listed are trivial and unconvincing with these being coated with PR and the essence of it; the information itself is also then PR. SwisterTwister talk 00:40, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete does not appear to be independently notable and is thoroughly described anyway at the founder's bio article. Unless someone wishes to refine the current categories, I wouldn't recommend leaving behind a redirect. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:13, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
