Only one source on this page is about the subject, the rest are just mentioning his writing credits on other artists' releases and I don't even know if those are all reliable. The page doesn't even mention his Grammy nomination for writing on Justin Bieber's Justice. Beyond that, the closest I can find is this barebones article about a legal claim against Usher. Doesn't pass GNG, doesn't appear to pass WP:COMPOSER. Doesn't appear to be sufficiently tied to any one subject to have a clear redirect target. QuietHere (talk) 23:32, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. Film festivals don't automatically get "inherent" notability freebies just because they exist, and have to be shown to clear WP:GNG on their sourcing — but the referencing here isn't adequate, and I can't find anything else that would bolster the case: even on a ProQuest search, I still only get community hyperlocals within Peel Region, glancing namechecks of its existence in coverage of other things that are irrelevant to the notability of the festival (e.g. Tim Hudak staging a photo-op there during the 2014 election), and very brief blurbs in event listings that aren't notability builders.

A non-notable charitable book-selling website that appears to have closed down in 2016 or thereabouts. The sources cited in the article are largely blogs and there aren't any reliable secondary sources (noting that some of the links are dead, but I have checked archived versions). Its advertisements won awards. A WP:BEFORE search has not identified any additional reliable secondary sources (although admittedly it's tricky to search for a company called "Good Books International"; I've tried various search term combos including with Oxfam and the creator Jane Cherrington). I did find an article on The Big Idea which reads like a press release but that's about it. I also found another link which seemed promotional, and including it in the text prevented me from actually putting the AfD through Twinkle (as it appears on the WP:BLACKLIST), so evidently that isn't any help. All up, the article doesn't seem to meet the WP:GNG threshold, nor WP:SIRS. Chocmilk03 (talk) 21:37, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Article in a forthcoming anime tv series due for release in 2023. What we have at the moment is coverage of an announcement that it is to be released, and a teaser/trailer. What we don’t have is in-depth coverage in multiple reliable independent sources. I think this should be draftified until the time comes (next year?) when notability can be determined.

- Draftify I agree that the series currently fails the notability guidelines. That being said, the show has yet to air an episode and creating drafts for upcoming media is a common practice, so I don't see anything wrong with draftifying this article until the series starts airing.

Failed propositions are rarely notable, and nothing about this one indicates anything different. Onel5969 TT me 22:28, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep – If this is the rationale to be used against this proposition, then there are many California propositions in history that would stand to be deleted. The mere existence of a ballot measure is inherently notable. A look through this list shows that every 2020 California proposition has an article, including the failed ones, and especially Proposition 23, which is similar to the subject in question. For the previous decade, this list shows that every 2016 ballot proposition, including the failed ones, have their own article. The fact that there are failed propositions in history that do not have their own article does not signify that they are not notable, rather they more likely indicate that no one has volunteered to create them. If there are enough sources to build an article, which I am sure exists for Proposition 29, then it stands to reason that the ballot measure is notable, and the article only needs improvement instead of deletion.

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Politics and California. Shellwood (talk) 09:57, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep, but in the alternative, merge/redirect to an article or section about Proposition 29, 2020 California Proposition 23, 2018 California Proposition 8, and contextual information. That is, I would understand if consensus does not consider Proposition 29 notable by itself, but the group of related propositions over time is clearly notable with sustained reliable coverage. I wrote a brief section in another article: SEIU_United_Healthcare_Workers_West#Ballot_propositions. Micler (talk) 16:48, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Unclear from the nomination what is the policy-/guideline-based reason for deletion. A simple search shows multiple items satisfying the GNG, especially given this was the third attempt to pass this proposition.[1][2][3][4][5] At $96 million, ($80+ million against) appears to have been one most highly spent propositions on the ballot.[6]

- I will point out that for a ballot proposition or other election, the relevant guideline is arguably WP:NEVENT, a higher bar than WP:GNG. An article about the three kidney dialysis propositions in tandem (California dialysis propositions) would certainly pass that bar, and this might standalone. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 22:23, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep statewide ballot measures are usually notable, especially in a state as large as California. We don't have a notability guideline for elections other than GNG, but the de facto standard is that statewide elections and ballot measures are notable (I cannot recall them ever being deleted).

- Keep Prop 29 has been a big story here in Calfornia with three attempts to pass it and all failing. It's received coverage outside the state that I'm too lazy to link (NY Times, Wall Street Journal, Fox).

It looks like "iRip" was notable (from the late 90's to about 2014) in time to the popularity of ipods. In 2009 there was a legal kerfuffle with a text back from Steve Jobs. However, in my opinion, the ipod ripping software holds no notability today. The article has been tagged that it may not meet notability guidelines for products and services since September 2020.

- Keep - Even the nom's rationale for deletion concedes that the software was notable, and as notability is not temporary I don't see a valid rationale for deletion being presented. This plus the book references certainly seem to show notability by way of WP:GNG. - Aoidh (talk) 10:04, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Really confusing reason for deletion. If once notable, than it is notable. Ipods are over, so is this tool. It's okay that there are not any news right now about this software. 多少 战场 龙 (talk) 12:22, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- I was thinking in retrospect "that notability does not fade" So was the software notable in "2009?" Reading the notability guidelines the presence or lack of support may or may not be an indicator of notability. (That sounds obtuse but you can have a notable person without any sources that are readily apparent; the opposite could be true as well where support might be plentiful but the subject is not meaningful. ) Perhaps the notability in 2009 came from "use" or much more likely that Steve Jobs "said change the name" in a one sentence text. In November 2009 The Little App Factory was forced by Apple to change the name of iPodRip to remove the trademark iPod. In a bid to gain leniency the developer sent an email to Steve Jobs and this email exchange was leaked garnering headlines due to Steve's succinct reply of "Change your apps name. Not that big of a deal." The software is now known as iRip. To quote Steve Jobs in the article it is "not that big of a deal" Is notability noise? I don't think the noise from a transitory headline (to generate readership (aka click-bait) is notable. Nevertheless, I hereby change my vote to Keep Flibbertigibbets (talk) 14:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of an athlete and filmmaker, not properly sourced as passing either WP:NATHLETE or WP:CREATIVE. The notability claim as an athlete is that he competed (but did not medal) in various international sporting events, and the notability claim as a filmmaker is that his film won an award at a minor film festival whose awards aren't instant notability clinchers -- but neither of those claims are sourced to any evidence of WP:GNG-worthy reliable source coverage about him, and instead the article is referenced solely to a directory entry.
Even for the Olympics, simple presence in the competition is no longer an automatic notability freebie -- a person has to either medal at the Olympics or pass GNG on the sourcing to get an article on those grounds, and just having been present in a preliminary Olympic heat isn't enough all by itself anymore. And notability for filmmakers does not just indiscriminately accept every single award from every single film festival that exists, but only attaches to a relatively narrow tier of major, internationally prominent film festivals on the order of Cannes, Berlin, Sundance, Venice or Toronto (but despite Nice's geographic proximity to Cannes, the film festival in Nice is not the same thing as Cannes, but is instead a separate, much less notable event.) And while the article has cited more footnotes in the past than it does now, they've still always been primary sources (IMDb, etc.) rather than reliable or notability-building ones, so there's no better-sourced older version of the article that can be reverted back to.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the subject from having to be referenced considerably better than this. There are also some likely WP:COI issues here, as the article has previously been edited by a user named "Tolgaria". Bearcat (talk) 21:59, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

WP:BLP of an actor and filmmaker, not properly sourced as passing WP:CREATIVE. This was created in draftspace and then got moved into mainspace by its creator without going through any sort of WP:AFC review -- but the only notability claim it attempts is that he and his film credits exist, which isn't automatically enough in and of itself, and the referencing is entirely to directory entries and glancing namechecks of his existence in cast or crew lists on unreliable film blogs, with absolutely no evidence of WP:GNG-worthy coverage about him in genuinely reliable sources shown at all.
Just having film credits is not "inherently" notable enough to exempt a person from having to be the subject of any coverage and analysis about him and his work in real media. Bearcat (talk) 21:37, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

- You requested to delete an article name Ridoyanul Hoq. Because I moved the article directly from the draft space to the main space, and you also said that the references are from the blog site. Although this article was reviewed by 2 administrators before but I respect your opinion. One thing to note here is that: while moving the article from the draft to the main space with mobile, I didn't see the option like WP:AFC And I want to say about the references that, the references are not of any blog site. I'm new on Wikipedia, I don't know too much about Wikipedia policies, If you think my article still doesn't follow the Wikipedia rules, delete it ASAP. But if you think my article is suitable for main space, please remove the notice. Frryan404 (talk) 02:49, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
- The problem, Frryan404, is not the alleged poor quality of some of the references in the current version or an earlier version. It's an alleged lack of reliable sources that would demonstrate that this man passes either WP:CREATIVE or WP:GNG. (He doesn't need to pass both.) At the end of this "Articles for deletion" process, somebody other than Bearcat will evaluate the arguments for and against deletion, and will either (A) delete the article or (B) remove the notice. In order to increase the chances of (B), the best thing for you to do is to improve the article, in particular by citing reliable sources that will demonstrate that the subject satisfies either WP:CREATIVE or WP:GNG. -- Hoary (talk) 03:07, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
- We're not looking for sources that have his name in them, such that any directory entry you can find with his name in it would automatically be a notability-assisting reference — we're looking for reliable sources that represent substantive analysis of the significance of his work: news articles about him and his work, books about him and his work, and on and so forth. Bearcat (talk) 13:58, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
- There are some news, but the news titles are almost the same. That's why I didn't add them. Although this article won to be deleted, but should I add the news? Frryan404 (talk) 03:27, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Despite playing professionally in Argentina and Peru and semi-professionally in Chile, I am unable to find any evidence of WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC. This was kept 10 years ago purely because of the deprecated WP:NFOOTBALL guideline, based on WP:FPL. This article now needs to be assessed against the guidelines that currently apply. The best Chilean source that I can find is Al Aire Libre and the best Argentine one is Mundo Ascenso; neither of these are even close to significant.

The article was a copyright violation, that after being cleaned up, became a stub and has remained so for a decade. I can't find much evidence of WP:NOTABILITY as this bill was rejected. Doing a google search shows that there is not much on this topic aside from a few news stories from the time the bill was proposed, but I couldn't find anything significant after that. Given that more than a decade later no one gives significant coverage to this topic, this is not a topic of WP:ENDURING notability. VR talk 20:32, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

This is an entry for a "Defunct" company which was acquired by a company that then declared bankruptcy in 2018. The product "NuVinci CVT" is currently owned and marketed by another company under a different brand by the company which "survived" the bankruptcy (through the input of private capital). The CVT product is very notable and it has an in depth Wikipedia entry NuVinci_Continuously_Variable_Transmission . In my opinion this article (for a defunct corporation) has no relevance or notability (and contains dead links) Flibbertigibbets (talk) 20:17, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

- Leaning Keep He was an "Honorary Professor" at AGH University of Science and Technology, which would seem to meet WP:NACADEMIC, 5. It also says he was chair of a section of the Polish Academy of Sciences for 22 years, which, if that means he was a member of the Academy, would likely meet WP:NACADEMIC, 3, since the Academy is limited to 350 members. Jahaza (talk) 21:00, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Mild delete. WP:NACADEMIC doens't provide his a proper criterion. He didn't chair Polish Academy of Sciences. The honorary professor in Soviet-block states is kind of a trivial thing, and it also doesn't meet WP:NACADEMIC as for me. Maybe I explain the rules in a wrong way. Would be glad to hear some feedback. 多少 战场 龙 (talk) 08:19, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete The entire "Klich" family seems to have been added to WP by User:Wojtek Klich. This article mainly has non-third party sources that look to be institutional.

Lamona (talk) 03:50, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
- Weak delete or redirect to Bogdan Klich. He may meet pl wiki criteria (which make anyone who got habilitation notable), but our criteria (WP:NPROF) are tighter. There is nothing in the cited sources or article to suggest he meets them. There are further sources cited on AGH wiki (https://historia.agh.edu.pl/wiki/Adam_Klich), but only one looks non-trivial/independent: "Współcześni uczeni polscy : słownik biograficzny. T. 2 : H - Ł. Red. nauk. J. Kapuścik. Warszawa 1999, s. 338." Unfortunately, it's not online so it's hard to verify the amount of coverage in it. Unless someone can access this and show us if WP:SIGCOV is met, I am afraid the subject doesn't meet GNG/NBIO/NPROF. PS. A merge and redirect to Bogdan Klich might be considered too. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:23, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

- Keep The article currently cites 4 sources:
- 2 from the Southern Poverty Law Center, which are in depth and independent from the topic (but are substantially similar to one another such that I only count them as one source)
- One from Houma Today, about a sheriff's deputy who was relieved of duty due to her on-line activities. This article, although it's about the deputy, does provide substantial coverage of WRR in the context of her activities involving it.
- One from the New York Times about far right groups finding legitimacy due to Trump's rhetoric. WRR is mentioned in that article as discussing that the president's statements had made their own views "mainstream". This source does not amount to the in-depth coverage required for GNG.
- I'm able to find additional coverage in Homeland Security Today(discussing the use of cryptocurrency to fund the activities of hate groups, including the one in question), Media Matters (discussing their activities on Trovo), and The Guardian (discussing the reach WRR has among white supremacists and its influence in getting listeners to sign a petition).
- I'll see if I can make time over the next week to expand the article a bit with the additional sources I've found (but not linked). However, I would say the Southern Policy Law Center source and the Houma Today source combine to meet (certianly) the burden of A7 and also to meet the lower end of the burden of GNG. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 18:07, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete This is a company therefore WP:NCORP guidelines apply. A primary point is that we require references that discuss the *company* in detail. As per WP:SIRS *each* reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - we require at least two of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and containing "Independent Content".
- "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.
- None of the references meet the criteria for establishing notability of the company. We have reviews of their products (bikes) with almost nothing said about the company and then some primary sources. I'm happy to review my !vote if other references are produced that focus on the company but in the meantime, I'm unable to find any appropriate references, topic therefore fails WP:NCORP.

- The ctfutbol.cl articles and the YouTube video don't count towards meeting the GNG, but I think there is possibly enough from the El Mercurio, AS (as mentioned in the nomination), ADN and Pagina 7 articles. A lot of those articles are quotes from the subject, but there is some independent reporting (much of it involves the same story about his 2019 chance meeting with C.S.D.

The result was delete. As noted by Hatman31, the relevant guideline here is WP:NSPORTSEVENT, which says, "...news coverage should be extensive (e.g., outside of the week of its occurrence and in non-local newspapers)." The sources provided by Red-tailed hawk are all from the night or day after the game was played, and as Muboshgu refuted, basically the same as routine coverage for any World Series game.
It is entirely possible this is an extraordinary game, and sources will appear in the future to justify that, but it has not been argued that they exist today.
Finally, I was initially going to close this as redirect, but enough people have complained about the current title that it doesn't make sense to create a redirect at a title people don't like. Legoktm (talk) 20:32, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Proposed deletion objected to. This is an unnecessary WP:CONTENTFORK created in the WP:RECENTISM of the event. Everything in this article is already stated at 2022 World Series, therefore this doesn't meet WP:NEVENT independent of the 2022 World Series. Yes, there are many sources about Game 4 of the 2022 World Series, but there are many sources about every World Series game, and none get individual pages, aside from Larsen's perfect game and the Shot Heard 'Round the World, which are notable exceptions. Roy Halladay's postseason no-hitter does not have a standalone article. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:14, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Baseball and United States of America. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:14, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
- I really don't have an issue either way, but if I was leaning either way, I go with deleting it and merging it in the Game 4 section of the World Series page. posty (talk) 16:45, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
Delete - Clearly no need for a separate article; the relevant guideline is WP:SPORTSEVENT. I say delete rather than merge this because it seems like most if not all of its content is already in the article on the WS. Hatman31 (talk) 23:59, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

- Keep: A clearly notable event (no-hitters in the World Series are far from a common event) that has received far more than the routine coverage of a regular World Series game.Esolo5002 (talk) 04:16, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
Keep It may not be quite as notable as Don Larsen's perfect game, Bill Mazeroski's 1960 World Series home run, Kirk Gibson's 1988 World Series home run or Joe Carter's 1993 World Series home run, but the 2nd no-hitter in World Series is still very notable. Blaylockjam10 (talk) 04:28, 4 November 2022 (UTC) Keep: It's not a perfect game, but the only other no-hitter in World Series history and the first one in 56 years, I believe is pretty notable. MushroomMan674 (talk) 09:27, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
Keep: Pitcher feats in the World Series are grossly underrepresented on wikipedia as a whole. We have multiple pages for individual World Series home runs, but essentially nothing other than Don Larsen's perfect game (which would've been made regardless of when it was done given its status as a perfect game). Blaylockjam10 said it probably isn't as notable as the individual home runs, but I actually disagree. The pitching staff for the Houston Astros did something that has only ever happened one other time in the World Series. I'd also throw out that Roy Halladay's postseason no-hitter not having a standalone article isn't the best comparison. It was extremely early in the postseason, they weren't playing for the championship in that series, his no-hitter did not have the same stakes behind it. Even so, it not having its own page, to me, is problematic as well. If anything this and Roy Halladay's no-hitter should both have their own articles. Korijenkins (talk) 17:13, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Nowhere in these comments by Blaylockjam, MushroomMan, or Korijenkins is any mention of Wikipedia policy, just fandom. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:19, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:COVERAGE. There is in-depth coverage of this event by a diverse set of independent reliable sources that are published across the globe. These sources include Washington Post, BBC News, Fox News, Associated Press, The New York Times (1, 2), The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, CNN, Los Angeles Times, AFP, La Razón, El Universal, etc. The only criterion of WP:COVERAGE that can't quite be measured at this point is duration of coverage, but the coverage of the no-hitter doesn't appear to have stopped and I think it more likely than not that the coverage will stretch beyond a short news cycle. As such, I see no reason to delete this under WP:NEVENT; it's being covered by major publications in multiple countries and it's being covered in-depth. Additionally, while Muboshgu is correct in that none of them explicitly say the words "NEVENT", the arguments of Blaylockjam10, MushroomMan674, and Korijenkins have a basis in that guideline's criteria of WP:EVENTCRIT#2. A no-hitter in the World Series is, to be frank, so exceptionally rare in baseball that it is only happened twice (the last time being over 65 years ago); this is nowhere near a WP:ROUTINE sort of event. Moreover, WP:NEVENT explicitly notes that
The topic of an article should be notable, or "worthy of notice"; that is, "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded"
; the arguments of those three specifically address the claim that the article's topic is unusual, significant, and interesting enough to be recorded in our encyclopedia and are thereby based in WP:PAG. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:21, 4 November 2022 (UTC)- The same depth of coverage exists for Game 5, and nobody is making a stand-alone article for it.

- Game 5 probably isn't "unusual enough to deserve attention." There have been hundreds of 1 run wins and great catches in World Series history, there have only been 2 no-hitters.

- Redirect Though a cool achievement, as covered by Muboshgu, it has received similar coverage as the other WS games in the series and can be redirected back to the main WS article.

Pages with incorrect names can simply be renamed via page movement procedure. Naming disputes are discussed on the articles' talk pages or listed at requested moves.
. - References are not allowed in disambiguations and so the references at the linked pages must be used. This discussion really should be at the Talk:, but: Phrases such as
- "Undocumented Americans ... Having immigrated to the U.S."[9]
- and "Acquisition of United States nationality through birth abroad to United States citizens"
- and "people who have spent most of their lives in..."[10]
- and "undocumented Americans coming over from Mexico and Central America"[11]
- are more commonly used, but they're much too long. The latter is also too specific. Also any A-word phrase is going to be somewhat incorrect because it encompasses the entire hemisphere so American immigration to America is not ideal. I am very open to changing the title in some way. Invasive Spices (talk) 10 November 2022 (UTC)

- Explanation So since I can't provide sources at the disambig page, let me further explain here to demonstrate that this is a common point of view:
- A major religious leader, in legislative testimony, uses the phrase "their country".[1] A legislator gives a speech (outside of the legislature, not related to the previous example) saying "This is their country."[2] And then there are the examples I've given above.[3][4][5]
- These two things are very commonly said to be the same. I certainly find no examples with the exact phrasing of the disambig's title, so I'm not going to defend any particular phrasing. However the suggestion that the idea is nonsense is demonstrated to be incorrect.
- We should move to a different title. Border entry by American citizens who were born elsewhere and have never entered before is perfectly accurate but obviously... Invasive Spices (talk) 13 November 2022 (UTC)

TL;DR: Unsourced biography, fails WP:GNG and Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Entertainers.
In somewhat more detail: This is a 3 sentence biography of an actor who has not had any starring roles, and possibly more important, has not had any indepth articles from unrelated reliable sources written about him. I looked. I had nominated the article for WP:BLPPROD, but that was reverted by User:GB fan with the comment that the IMDB link about him was a source - er - I don't think that qualifies as a reliable source, but let's discuss that here.
To give GB fan credit, our policy WP:BLPPROD is self contradictory, since it says, in consecutive sentences "To be eligible for a BLPPROD tag, the entry must be a biography of a living person and contain no sources in any form (as references, external links, etc., reliable or otherwise) supporting any statements made about the person in the biography. Unlike standard proposed deletion, the BLP deletion template may be removed only after the biography contains a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article." So does the source have to be reliable or not?
In any case, that's nitpicking about how the sausage was made. I think the article fails Wikipedia:Notability. Now if my Search-engine-fu was weak and I missed significant roles and/or indepth sources, I'll be only too happy; I like articles, and in fact, I will add a free image to the article from this video. But, unfortunately, I am reasonably experienced at this sort of thing and am fairly sure that they're not there, at least enough so for this nomination. --GRuban (talk) 14:06, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

- Comment the BLPPROD rules aren't contradictory. They were specifically designed to include UNsourced articles, and not let them out of BLPPROD jail until they were RELIABLY sourced. Now, as far as unreliably sourced BLPs?

Film of unclear notability and uncertain release status. When I first encountered this a few days ago, it was still titled "upcoming film" rather than "2019 film", but the article had existed since 2015 and was being generically categorized as a "2010s film", so after finding a few directory entries which ascribed it a 2019 release date I moved it to "2019 film" -- however, another user has now questioned the accuracy of those directory entries, and suggested that it's still not properly verifiable whether the film has even been released yet as of 2022.
But as always, Wikipedia does not want to indiscriminately maintain an article about every single film that enters the production pipeline without regard to whether it ever comes out the other end as a completed and released film or not, and there isn't nearly enough sourcing here to exempt it from the primary notability criteria for films at WP:NFO: four of the six footnotes are dead links, the other two are fairly short blurbs not substantive enough to secure permanent notability all by themselves, and even if the dead links prove recoverable by somebody with much better access to Bangladeshi media archives than I have, six footnotes still really wouldn't be enough "production coverage" to give an unreleased film an NFF-based exemption from NFO anyway.
So I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with better access to Bangladeshi sources can find solid confirmation that it actually has been released — but if the film actually has so little coverage that it's still in this much doubt whether it was ever actually released in the first place, then it's a film we really shouldn't have an article about at all, and even if it has been released, it still needs improved sourcing to support that anyway.

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Film and Bangladesh. Bearcat (talk) 13:38, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete I'm the "another user" refered to in the nomination. The dead links have been repaired. There are more sources available (like the three Bengali language ones in the external links section). And at least one source more recent than 2016 does exist: [23] fleetingly describes the film in October 2019 as a film the director "is trying to make". The sources, however, are essentially all regurgitated press releases from the production company, gushing about how the film will be completed soon (that was in 2015). There is no independent analysis in secondary sources.
- I concur with Bearcat that Wikipedia is not meant to be an indiscriminate database of all films that ever began production. An article should be more than just an announced list of cast and crew. Policy WP:NOTPLOT tells us that the encyclopedia should treat creative works in an encyclopedic manner, discussing their development, design, reception, significance, and influence. No independent, in-depth sources exist on which we could base such an article. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:49, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

- Comment - Hi EchidnaLives is there any reason that the coverage here, here, and here is not significant? I don't know much about sports but seems like a pointless endeavour to delete an article with this coverage and that will inevitably be recreated within the coming months.
- Hi MaxnaCarta, while I would say it is significant, the article probably still falls under WP:TOOSOON. However, I could see Draftify being a good option, as like you said, it will inevitably be recreated. Thanks, echidnaLives - talk - edits 09:19, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- I don't understand why it is too soon if it is getting coverage.

Poorly sourced WP:BLP of a person with no particularly strong notability claim. The principal notability claim here is that she is (or possibly was, considering how long this article has existed) president and CEO of a lottery corporation, which is not an "inherently" notable role in the absence of solid sourcing to get her over WP:GNG -- but three of the six footnotes here are primary sources (LinkedIn, her own employer) that are not support for notability at all, and two of the other three are from a user-generated discussion forum that isn't a reliable source. And while there is one citation to a daily newspaper here, it's a dead link that I can't recover via the Wayback Machine, it was a bare URL so there's no way to search for it by title, and even if it were recoverable it takes a lot more than just one newspaper hit to pass GNG. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have considerably better sourcing than this. Bearcat (talk) 02:02, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - I am not convinced by this coverage. Mere passing mentions are not significant coverage. I do not see sufficient depth in the coverage beyond anything routine. Not enough to build much more than a one line stub. Does not meet the general notability guideline imho. But, I concede, I also see a week keep argument. All of the above arguments are reasonable.

- Keep The line "Paul gained national fame within the lottery community" in the article is a notability red flag, but the coverage presented above does, indeed, take Paul past WP:GNG.

After some research, I’ve noticed that this character lacks notability, and that the page itself includes no real-world or critical information regarding this character. Additionally, there has been some coverage on the character's sexuality, but only in the form of trivial mentions (with his significant other — Loras Tyrell — being the topic of discussion rather than Renly himself; check the sources on the main page). It’s best that this page is deleted/redirected due to the lack of coverage and stand-alone stories/articles/etc.. In my own opinion, I’d think it be best to delete this article, and merge some of its content to Loras Tyrell, seeing as his coverage appears to be more significant. While on the topic, I’ve also noticed a handful of other Game of Thrones-related articles (including Lord Varys, Ellaria Sand, Gilly, and the High Sparrow) also lack coverage in their articles and mostly consist of plot summaries. --Lord of Fantasy (talk) 18:08, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

I do not personally feel that the highly specific nature of this article meets the threshold of WP:NOTABLE / WP:DUE for it to be considered an appropriate subject for an article in its own right.

- Comment. True that it included no third-party coverage as of nomination and was essentially unsourced. Not sure about the "advertisement" part as it seemed pretty dry and factual; it read more like a directory listing. Anyway not sure yet, but it's quite possible this article could be saved. The challenge with think tanks, especially those that are media savvy, is that they generate so much coverage that it will take quite a long time to go through all of it to try to identify any pieces that cover the organization in any depth. Cielquiparle (talk) 12:21, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

- Good start. But NPEC is no longer associated with ISS. Hasn’t been for more than a decade. So, you might drop that reference. Also useful an article that describes NPEC’s nuclear instruction on the Hill by Rachel Oswald, “A Teach of How to Avoid Annihilation,” Congressional Quarterly, Feb. 5, 2018.

This looks like an honest mistake that should be easy to correct. 2606:9400:8FA0:278:B1FC:4BE6:831F:5A22 (talk) 16:45, 27 October 2022 (UTC)— 2606:9400:8FA0:278:B1FC:4BE6:831F:5A22 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Comment. I would like to turn our attention that many of the sources are opinion pieces, most of those by the executive director himself, not factual reporting about the organization. I do not have the time to vet every source, but a quick review does not show any independent coverage about the organization in reliable secondary sources. I think the nom does know the rules, but I do not have time right now to review every one of them. Bearian (talk) 19:31, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
- I'll list the secondary sources out shortly. I would just ask that all the anonymous users who are clearly very concerned about this article please chill out. Unless you have more secondary sources to suggest, it's confused things that we've had so many people pile on without knowing the rules. Cielquiparle (talk) 21:21, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
- Comment. To establish notability from a Wikipedia point of view, we need to demonstrate significant coverage from multiple independent, reliable sources per WP:GNG (allowed per WP:NONPROFIT). By definition, think tanks struggle with this requirement because so much of the coverage generated comes from the organization itself (and thus is not independent). Coverage which draws too heavily on interviews with the subject often doesn't count, either.
Regarding the secondary sources that we have added to the article so far (*since* it was first nominated for deletion), which IMO are sufficient to satisfy WP:GNG, also in view of the fact that the activities of the organization are national (and international) in scope:
- Sangillo, Greg and Kukis, Mark (2004). Nuclear, and Other, Worries in National Journal. NPEC executive director is one of 11 nonproliferation experts profiled in this article. Four in-depth paragraphs, explaining Sokolski/NPEC's stance on key issues, exactly what we want to see in secondary coverage about a think tank (even if subject and colleague were briefly quoted).
- Margulies, Philip (2008). Nuclear Nonproliferation. Book published by Gale Research. Includes some independent analysis of the quality of research, the calibre of staff, and political leanings of NPEC (hence the Bush administration discussion above), compared and contrasted with other think tanks, over a few pages within the book. It's not the Platonic ideal of SIGCOV, but of all the sources, this was one of the most helpful not only in validating the significance of NPEC, but also in clarifying its positioning vis-à-vis other organizations within the field, from several angles.
- Webb, Gregory (2003). National Journal article on top web sites across 50 issue areas. The NPEC web site is featured in the category "Weapons of Mass Destruction". Yes, it's one paragraph, but it's one paragraph in an independent, reliable source also validating the authority and expertise of the organization within this subject area.
- Oswald, Rachel (2018). Congressional Quarterly magazine feature article on the NPEC public policy fellowship. This is the most in-depth, focused article on NPEC. Four out of 14 paragraphs include direct quotes from Sokolski, and while much of the article refers indirectly to information he has shared with Oswald, it also includes quotes from a California Republican and a Massachusetts Democrat regarding their views on NPEC, facts about the public policy fellowship, and information about the reach and potential impact of the NPEC program reported by Oswald which was reviewed and approved by editors of Congressional Quarterly.
- Arms Control Today (January/February 2015), book review of Moving Beyond Pretense: Nuclear Power and Nonproliferation edited by Sokolski of NPEC.
- Finally, to give an idea of how extensively NPEC is cited in the mainstream media by secondary sources, please see the Citations page on their web site. Cielquiparle (talk) 12:05, 8 November 2022 (UTC)

- Merge to Henry D. Sokolski As far as I can see (paywalls permitting), pretty much all of the substantive RS coverage is of Sokolski speaking, not about the activities of the NPEC independent of him. (Have I missed something?) OsFish (talk) 04:15, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- The merge seems to be the best option. Oaktree b (talk) 05:28, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Note to #TeamNPEC: This is why it was a bad idea to add more Sokolski-centric content to the NPEC page. I will add back more information, cited, about the think tank's programs and activities, which will help to make a better case for why there should be standalone page for the think tank. (This is a common problem with businesses and other organizations where the founder/entrepreneur has a big footprint on the organization, and isn't insurmountable.) Cielquiparle (talk) 07:45, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- For the sake of the AfD, could you provide some accessible links here to a reasonable number of RS that give substantive coverage to NPEC independently of Sokolski's activities (ie more than a reference to Sokolski's position in NPEC when he is quoted?)? I'm aware my !vote is based on an absence of evidence rather than evidence of absence (such as exhaustive google searches turning up nothing and so would be happy to reverse if multiple such RS exist.OsFish (talk) 09:16, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- If you log in to Wikipedia Library and click on the links, they should work. (If you don't have access to it yet, you may be able to get an account by asking and explaining why you need it.) You can check out the Nuclear Nonproliferation book from the Internet Archive (which is free). The CQ Magazine article is now locked down again (it was open for a while), but you can read excerpts of it at the bottom of this page. Cielquiparle (talk) 08:01, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- The problem for me is that I just don't see significant coverage of the NPEC distinct from Sokolski's personal activities in these sources as required per WP:GNG. I would need more information to locate the wayback machine's copy of the Nuclear Nonproliferation book, but going by the preview on Google Books, it makes only passing mention to the NPEC - an address listing and brief description, and in mentions of Sokolski. That isn't significant coverage to my mind. The link you gave to CQ quotes contains cited praise for Sokolski more than the NPEC. I looked at the first couple of pages of results in the Wikipedia Library, and I didn't see any secondary sources that cover the activities of the NPEC as opposed to the activities specifically of Sokolski. Could you cite specific articles? I'm not a deletionist by nature; it's just that I genuinely haven't see much evidence yet that this is, going by Wikipedia policies, a separate topic to Henry Sokolski.OsFish (talk) 09:09, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- I've reformatted the article to more closely follow the think tank template used elsewhere, so please be sure to read the latest version of Nonproliferation Policy Education Center as well, which now makes it clearer that it's an organization with participation from many other people. If I had to choose between the two, I would keep NPEC and merge Sokolski's bio into NPEC. Cielquiparle (talk) 09:19, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- There hasn't been any significant changes to the sourcing since my initial !vote that would show NPEC a topic independent of Sokolski. Establishing that an entity exists isn't sufficient for it to be notable. Sokolski's own page shows that he has done far more than just the NPEC. To merge his page to here would be to lose a lot of RS-backed material. OsFish (talk) 09:28, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- Actually, no. The Sokolski page had zero sources. I just recently moved some of the sentences and citations from this page to the Sokolski page so it wouldn't look so bare, and those are mostly commentary by him in larger articles, not about him. Cielquiparle (talk) 09:32, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- The other thing I added was 1) information about the NPEC Public Policy Fellowship as a standalone program, and its impact on the Hill; 2) funding information from MacArthur and Carnegie Foundations; 3) calling out NPEC publications including edited volumes with contributions from other non-NPEC experts, and demonstrating their wider impact including citations in other publications. Cielquiparle (talk) 09:34, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- I think there's a conflation going on with the independence of NPEC from Sokolski in the real world, and the independence of the NPEC's notability sans Sokolski. So much of what is said substantively about the NPEC not as a creature of Sokolski is from the NPEC itself. That's not secondary. The sourcing for Sokolski's page isn't great, but that's fixable because all the details all can be confirmed in published reliable sources. I just added a couple of sources myself. Anyway, I think I've made my own position as clear as I can, so I won't waste your time stating it over again after this.OsFish (talk) 09:56, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- We can agree to disagree, but I did want to point out, I was quite careful to cite sources that were independent of NPEC for NPEC, whereas the information from his bio understandably suffers from the problem that most government career bios face (boilerplate bios that get republished everywhere and facts that can be difficult to cross-reference externally). Regardless, I value your thoughts on this because I am wondering whether I should propose a subject notability guideline specifically for think tanks, similar to WP:NACADEMIC. And thanks for adding to Sokolski's bio, I do think the more we expand and add citations to that one, the clearer the difference will be! Cielquiparle (talk) 10:31, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

- Keep While Cielquiparle has made huge improvements to the article, I still believe NPEC is borderline. It is also pretty much (AFAICS) a vehicle for Henry D. Sokolski - and I note the Merge suggestion above, but the Henry D. Sokolski page has no citations whatsoever and is appallingly sourced - there could be an argument for merging THAT article with this one. I doubt both deserve to continue existing. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:36, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Reply to @Alexandermcnabb:: I agree that only one page should exist. My own preference is for the person rather than the organisation because the RS thus far provided across the two articles seem to be about Sokolski primarily, establishing his, not NPEC's notability. WP:INHERITORG states "An organization is not notable merely because a notable person or event was associated with it...The organization or corporation itself must have been discussed in reliable independent sources for it to be considered notable." So I think it would make sense for the good work done on improving the article here be used for Sokolski's page rather than go to waste. OsFish (talk) 02:08, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Does not appear to meet WP:GNG, created by editor with a disclosed COI. The sole example of independent secondary coverage is a brief notice of having won an award [32]. The awards section of the article is a mess, but even if taken at its poorly-phrased-and-referenced word that Raghunathacharya has won all of these awards, none of them appear to meet notability guidelines in their own right and thus don't count towards WP:ANYBIO. Being a university administrator may indicate notability, but as a vice chancellor it's not a shoo-in in the absence of GNG. I was unable to find more sources online: searching on Google Books and Google Scholar, he gets some citations, but not enough to meet WP:NACADEMIC. With the available sources, any article would be an exercise in original research and I don't see a guideline-based reason to assume additional sources exist. signed, Rosguill talk 23:48, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

- Comment. As Curbon7 writes, vice-chancellor is the highest academic administrator level in India, so we're resting on whether National Sanskrit University was sufficiently major at the date at which he was VC; it seems to have been upgraded in status in 2020.

- Hi Rosguill, thanks for sharing this detail, it is specific and very helpful. Please see my responses below
- "Does not appear to meet WP:GNG," - Times of India was and is one of the major newspapers in India (Alexa Rank #269 worldwide) and in the early 2000s Internet coverage was not great like it is today.
- "The awards section of the article is a mess, but even if taken at its poorly-phrased-and-referenced word ..." - I agree with you on the poorly-phrased part, the words are verbatim from the Government of India website, I don't mind if it's rephrased for clarity http://www.sanskrit.nic.in/president_award_scheme.php
- "notability guidelines in their own right" - In my mind, Award from the highest official in the country, President of India, is notable.
- "but as a vice chancellor it's not a shoo-in in the absence of GNG" - Not sure what absence of GNG means, the official university website has been referenced. As others have pointed out, Vice-Chancellor of an Indian University is the highest position at the university
- Best, Sbssmadhav (talk) 14:50, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
- I would suggest actually reading through WP:GNG so that you understand what is being asked of the article (and all articles, generally). If that guideline is too confusing, see WP:THREE, which is a simplified explanation. As for the President's Award, two notes: 1. The standard for awards contributing towards establishing notability is that they must themselves be established as notable, per our own guidelines (i.e. GNG). 2. It's not clear that it's actually awarded by the President of India, but rather is an award issued by the university Raghunathacharya worked at, per the sources provided in the article [33]. signed, Rosguill talk 15:16, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
- You are right and I missed updating the reference to the official Ministry of Human Resources (MHRD) Government of India URL. I have updated the link to point to https://www.education.gov.in/en/sites/upload_files/mhrd/files/upload_document/awardees2002.pdf, this is not an award from the university, it is from the President of India, APJ Kalam, please see the reference in the PDF, number 11 on page 1 is Prof. S.B. Raghunathacharya. Thank you. Sbssmadhav (talk) 14:23, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
- So, that PDF in itself says basically nothing about the award other than who it was given to in 2002. But regardless, even if we assume that it's a government award, that doesn't make it Wikipedia-notable. You would need to provide enough sources to write an article about the award. signed, Rosguill talk 14:28, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

- Sony Anycast Station: A LEAN, WELL-BALANCED SWITCHER, BUT LITTLE PHAT, Studio Monthly, Vol 28 Issue 3, Kevin Kilbride - 1300 word review of the original launch of the product. "Despite being functionally flawless, the Anycast suffers from an attempt to do too many different things without focusing on doing any one of them particularly well."
- Briefcase of wonders -- Sony Anycast delivers big results in small package, Government Video, June 1 2005, Chuck Gloman - 1300 word review of original product. Not the same text or author as above. " In the same footprint as a typewriter (remember those?), you have a remote production facility - a six channel video switcher, audio mixer, monitor, and more."
- Sony AWS-G500 Anycast Station, Video Systems, Aug 2005, Tom Patrick McAuliffe - 2400 word review. ". Provided Sony follows through with its upgrade plans, the AWS-G500 will become the standard by which all other portable video production systems are measured"
- Sony Reinvents Switchers With the Anycast Touch, Government Video, Vol 25 Issue 3, Geoff Poister - 1400 word review of later model. Generally rather gushing. "I attempted to work with the chromakey feature and found this to be one area that needs some improvement."

- Delete Fails WP:NCORP, per previous analysis of sources which haven't really changed. scope_creepTalk 19:47, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - I actually disagree on this one. I see a few significant mentions in independent RSes: AP News · STAT news · GenomeWeb · IllinoisPolicy · AdWeek · Bloomberg · TechCrunch · San Diego Union Tribune · NYT All these sources may in some way mention the test, but they are primarily focused on the company itself and its relationship with other notable organizations, funders, or people. The article looks like it may need some work from a DUE standpoint, but it is clearly notable per NCORP. — Shibbolethink (♔ ♕) 13:04, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- Comment None of those references meet NCORP which requires "Independent Content" and [[WP:CORPDEPTH|in-depth information] *about* the company. Information provided by the company and repeated in an article is not original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. The references you mention fail in much the same was as the ones already in the article, they rely *entirely* on simply repeating the same information that was provided by the company and/or their execs or partners.
- You mention the following:
- An AP News reference that discusses a partnership with the NBA to conduct covid testing. That reference is dated the day after the press[ [https://pr.nba.com/cue-health-covid-19-testing-2021-22-nba-season/ releases from both the topic company and the NBA. It doesn't have anything significant or in-depth about the company, fails both NCORP and ORGIND.
- This from STAT news as well as this from the San Diego Union Tribune are based on an announcement by the company - same announcement that was used for the basis of numerous other articles all dated on the same day (or even the day before) such as this in MedtechDive (note this acknowledges the "Cue Health Press Kit") and this in Fierce Biotech from the previous day and lots of others such as Genomeweb, Mobile Health News, Beckers Hospital Review, etc, etc. Same information, same publishing date or thereabouts, all based on a company press kit, fails ORGIND.
- This from Genome web is based entirely on an announcement. Says it in the first sentence. It does not have any "Independent Content". Fails ORGIND.
- This from IllinoisPolicy is a mere mention-in-passing and does not contain any in-depth information about the company, fails CORPDEPTH
- This from AdWeek is once again an article based on PR. The date on the article is before the SuperBowl (so its not like the journalist saw the superbowl ad and said, Cool, lets so an article) and is the same date that the company issued a Press Release that was picked up by lots of publishers such as Bloomberg, AdAge, Mediapost, etc. Again, fails ORGIND.
- The Bloomberg reference clearly states that the information is from an anonymous source and that both the topic company and the banks involved declined to comment. Leaving aside any WP:RS discussion, the article itself contains almost no in-depth information about the company (that wasn't provided previously by the company, e.g. Cue Health has said it's also...). Fails CORPDEPTH.
- The TechCrunch reference has no in-depth information about the company - it focuses on a bug wit one of their devices - fails CORPDEPTH
- This NYT reference has no in-depth information about the company, fails CORPDEPTH, but is also based entirely on a company announcement and fails ORGIND. Same date and information in numerous other articles including two that are already in the article - a CNBC reference and a Bloomberg reference. There's others too.
- None of those references meet NCORP in my opinion but if you think some of the ones you've mentioned do meet NCORP, can you point to the part of the reference you think does? HighKing++ 15:34, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- I think we fundamentally disagree on how to interpret the "in-depth" in WP:CORPDEPTH, particularly
an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization
and in regards to the NYT, Bloomberg, and AP sources. If we applied the standards of CORPDEPTH that you're applying here to all of wikipedia, very few articles would survive. Overall, it's relatively clear to me that nothing I say here is going to change your opinion on this. You may feel free to have the last word, I will not reply. Have a nice day. — Shibbolethink (♔ ♕) 17:17, 9 November 2022 (UTC)- I'll respond only because you're misrepresenting what I've said. As per WP:SIRS, each reference must meet *all* the criteria. The references you've listed not only fail CORPDEPTH but also ORGIND - that is, once you remove the information provided by the company and/or the execs (as per ORGIND), the odd sentence or two that remains is insufficient to meet CORPDEPTH.

Fails WP:GNG or WP:NFILM. Except for one Film Threat review which is RS, SIGCOV, and also independent and of significant coverage, the rest are routine non-SIGCOV podcasts and synopsis details, more non-RS, non-SIGCOV sites including YouTube and IMDb, and non-RS podcasts that has no editorial policies showing a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy

- Delete, one review is not enough for notability. Fails WP:NFILM DonaldD23 talk to me 13:21, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to Bobby Blood (musician). There's really only one good source here, the Film Threat review. The other independent sources are all self-published sources like podcasts - sometimes, rarely, those can be seen as a RS but that's not really the case here. Horror is one of those areas where it's really difficult to gain coverage, as the mainstream outlets tend to ignore the indie stuff and the genre outlets (that would be RS on here) can only review so many films. If this had another 2-3 reviews then this would be a different story. My recommendation, if the director sees this, is to submit the film for review in places like Dread Central, Ginger Nuts of Horror, Culture Crypt, Bloody Disgusting, and pretty much any of the outlets listed as RS at WP:HORROR/S, assuming you haven't already. Film festivals are also a great way to go about this as well - FrightFest is a great one, if you can get your film in and go overseas, as a LOT of people attend that. In the meantime the director looks like he's probably notable, although the article needs some cleanup. This can redirect to his article for the time being.

- "When I read the article it read to me as advertising or promotion." That kind of content should not be on Wikipedia mainspace. If that is indeed how the article reads, perhaps it should move to draftspace until it no longer has those issues? Criticalus (talk) 21:43, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
- Article was tagged for notability for twelve years, and in that entire duration nothing was done to establish SIGCOV. A recent controversy that temporarily has his name in the news doesn't change that and is not enough to meet BLP guidelines. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 07:22, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Despite the lack of content within the article itself, Marty Stratton fulfills the basic criteria of notability outlined in WP:BIO#Basic_criteria and should be presumed notable. His actions related to his company has been the subject of multiple published works from secondary sources. Within the context of determining basic criteria, the definition of "published work" to qualify as a secondary source is deliberately broad, so we can consider anything from a news organization to an individual youtuber, so long as they are reliable, independent of one another, and independent of the subject. However, for the sake of this evaluation, we will instead consider organizations like IGN, The Escapist (magazine), Variety (magazine), and Eurogamer. Each aforementioned entity qualifies as WP:RS#News_organizations within the video game industry that have released publications discussing Marty Stratton's actions in the industry, and have no relation to either Marty Stratton or his company.
- Further, Marty Stratton is notable for multiple events beyond this controversy and does not fall under any categories of WP:NOT, meaning he does not meet any of the exclusionary criteria for the classifications. Under the notability guidelines in effect as of November 2022, the subject of this article meets basic criteria of a notable person. As such, the article should not be deleted on the basis of notability. 2001:56A:7C0F:4000:C085:1C31:F5B:B7FD (talk) 22:37, 15 November 2022 (UTC) — 2001:56A:7C0F:4000:C085:1C31:F5B:B7FD (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- This word salad sounds quite promotional in tone while going off topic and not addressing the issues with the article. "Presumed notable" doesn't qualify for keeping a BLP on Wikipedia. If Stratton was "notable for multiple events", they'd definitely be in the article and it wouldn't be nominated. Furthermore, some of the sites you linked here aren't even cited therein, while the current sourcing is already questionable (Medium, Reddit, YouTube). sixtynine • whaddya want? • 18:48, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

- Keep but with significant changes - This article should be about Australian Gamer only, not Guy Blomberg. While Guy Blomberg is still active within the gaming industry, he is not longer a public figure. Australian Gamer however is worth preserving because it was an important website at the time for the Australian gaming community. Not to mention it was representative of how the internet and internet communities functioned in the early 2000s. I will make an attempt to tidy things up into a small, concise article.

- The quality of this article is not at issue. AFD is not cleanup. I did not vote delete because of its quality issues. I voted delete due to the lack of significant coverage. Stating the article needs to be made more concise is not a valid argument for keep when the issue at hand is notability. Please provide sources as requested?

- Redirect to Shooting at the 1924 Summer Olympics – Men's 600 metre free rifle prone. There's not enough about the subject but this is a good ATD. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 11:51, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect per above. Pl wiki entry will probably remain b/c I think it's more inclusive towards anyone who participated in Olympics, but we require a bit more - and I can't see any sources to work with. He is mentioned in a lexicon Polscy olimpijczycy: 1924-1984 : leksykon, but the source is not online so I can't check the extent of coverage. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:20, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
