It is evident that Uganda, in fact, does not actually have a space program or, apparently, any prospect of one. Sending delegates to UN meetings is not enough to support the existence of the article, nor is the signing of treaties. This is an article about something that does not exist.

- Comment. Uganda indeed lacks a national space agency governmental department; it does, however, like every other modern country, have a number of government programs appertaining to space applications and policy. This article was originally intended to be a test-case for articles on the space programs of less developed countries, which, even though they don't launch their own rockets or satellites, still have significant governmental involvement in this field. This is reflected in the "expanded title" in the article intro, Uganda space programs and policy. I do think that the term "space program" can reasonably stand for the several space-related efforts of a government spread among different departments (as even UK and Japanese programs were not bureaucratically consolidated until recently), but another name for this article-type is also possible.--Pharos (talk) 04:12, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I've been considering it, and I think that perhaps a good replacement name might be Uganda space policy and projects, if that works.--Pharos (talk) 13:35, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and possibly rename (Space exploration in Uganda, Ugandan space policy and exploration). This is well cited. They have had a few goes at a space program, and getting onto the times 100 list for bad ideas is nice. Then there is the guy building a space plane in his mothers back yard. The key fact in the article is that Uganda is equatorial, which makes it ideal for launching rockets into space. Martin451 (talk) 05:09, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Notable topic. See Museveni to take Uganda to the moon for example. Warden (talk) 09:45, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment It is well referenced, so well referenced that one suspects it is a carefully constructed spoof. The content and references all relate to possibles, maybes and joke activities like Amin's "training" programme and someone building a rocket in their back yard. I am planning to build a vehicle to break the land speed record using an old skateboard I found, can I go in that article? It is not enough that they are on the equator, a lot of countries are, the fact remains that they do not have a space programme and it seems there is almost no actual space-related activity going on in the country. This article is a facade in front of an empty lot. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:55, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Reply. It's a facade that's gotten noticed. When you get the UN, BBC and CNN to do the same for you, then you can have Philafrenzy's attempt to win the Darwin Award. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:26, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep and rename per Martin. The citations are enough to support notability, but I agree that the title as it stands is poor. Ducknish (talk) 18:49, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep all of them. I may be wrong on this, but I would think since they are all part of professional high-tier teams, they would meet WP:NFOOTBALL. Ducknish (talk) 18:53, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Ducknish, that is incorrect. Being part of a professional high-tier team is one thing, but in order to meet WP:NFOOTBALL, a player has to appear in a fully pro league match, a competitive cup match (which in Ukraine would be the Ukrainian Cup) or internationally for the senior national team. – Michael (talk) 00:43, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of GW Today, no references to the website (gwtoday.gw.edu) in the references. However, the web page itself is pretty detailed.Listmeister (talk) 21:36, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unremarkable prize. No assertion of notability, merely a set of references that show it exists. Biker Biker (talk) 22:14, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Biker Biker. I'm a computer scientist (not one of the winners nor one of the organizers of the award) and I believe this is one of the most prestigious prizes for a PhD thesis around the topics of Logic and formal Languages.

- Keep - Well over a decade's track record, large Google footprint, and substantial published coverage, including this in Dependency Structures and Lexicalized Grammars: An Algebraic Approach, edited by Marco Kuhlmann, make this a GNG pass. Carrite (talk) 00:35, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - That source isn't independent: it is the book form of a dissertation that won this award, published as part of a series created by the organization that awarded it. I'm not sure what role Springer has in the publication; it may only be printing the books. RockMagnetist (talk) 17:47, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - As far as I can tell, the large Google footprint is from sites maintained by the Association for Logic, Language and Information, its European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information or calls for submissions (which are basically ads).

I would have recommended redirecting it to Association for Logic, Language and Information, but there are no independent sources for that article either (or for its products, European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information or Journal of Logic, Language and Information) so who knows how long that article will remain? For that matter, Evert Willem Beth has no references, so a mention of this prize with a link to the FoLLI website would be a first step to establishing his notability.

Deprodded without comment. Concern is lack of sourcing — found only name-drops at best. Sources currently in the article consist of personal sites and blogs, which are patently unreliable. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:37, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand, you can see the whole story of this game, written by the author here : http://web.archive.org/web/20081226103143/http://www.visi.com/~spookshow/muinet.php
You can also see it's a real game because it is still being sold today : http://www.gameport.com/bbs/swordschaos.html
Of course there's isn't much more than this, that's an old game created around 1990, nobody wrote a book on it or something like that which we could use as a primary source. Back in the day, the internet was being formed, we were still connecting with modem, 1 server at a time so it's only logical that there's isn't much around on the internet. There has to be a way to keep the article, most old video games article are just like this one. I added 2 more URL in the External Links, hopefully it will help. Let me know what we can do so that we can improve the article, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zurd (talk • contribs) 04:08, 2 April 2013 (UTC) Zurd (talk) 04:14, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Those are not the kind of reliable sources we use. The fact that it is still exists is not in question. You'd have to have magazine/newspaper reviews of the game, for starters. If it is notable, surely someone said something about it. Notability is the issue. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 04:29, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I just thought about this, if you want a reliable source, connect to a BBS server and go play the game, you can find the release information, along with the author name and the date it was created along with each updates. It's hard to have a primary source better than this because it's right into the game, hard-coded. Which prove without a doubt that the game is real and it's not from a personal web site. Zurd (talk) 04:14, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- That is not a reliable source by our standards. Again, the fact that the game exists is not in question. The source has to be independent of the game itself. Like a published review from a magazine or newspaper, for instance. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 04:30, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, so it's not notable because not enough people played it/reviewed it or talked about it and thus it does not merit it's own page : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability I'd hate to get rid of those pages as I really like those games and like the fact that's it's on wikipedia, available for all to see and they have external links which help people find the game, play it and they have screenshots, description, history, dates. That is all good information. Maybe I should just set up a blog and talk about it?! Zurd (talk) 04:53, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Good idea. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 05:14, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It is, although I'd really like to say that if the blog would not count as a reliable source that could show notability. I would also recommend that if you're interested in compiling information about older games, you might want to create a wiki on a site like Wikia about older games. It still wouldn't count as a RS, but it'd be a good alternative to Wikipedia since you could add whatever you like without fear of deletion. If you want to continue working on this entry in the hopes of it eventually gaining more notice in RS, we can always put a copy in your userspace. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:21, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually the idea of the blog is not that I would gain notability for the article, just the fact that I could add whatever I want without fear of being deleted. And it would be picked up by archive.org for eternity. I like wikipedia for the fact that every information is centralized here. Or I could maybe put it on Wikia, didn't know about that website before, maybe it's a better place to put the articles instead of a blog, I will have to check it more in details. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zurd (talk • contribs) 05:45, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Independent notability is not established. BBS Door games suffer from a lack of reliable secondary sourcing (early Flash games have similar troubles), and the effort to preserve their memory through WP is sometimes at odds with making an encyclopedia. But while the games tend to lack notability individually, they would have notability as a group. I've suggested a single "BBS Door games" (alternatively, a list) for elaborating on the era using the reliable sources that do exist. As for SoC, Ref1 and Ref4 are unreliable sources. Ref2 and Ref3 are passing mentions—not even an attempt to establish notability, and can't be the basis of a Keep argument. The sourcing isn't here, and I have yet to see an older, definitive print source on this topic that could apply here. czar · · 02:28, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. This train does not appear to be the subject of any reliable independent secondary sources, as required by the main notability guideline WP:GNG. A Google search turns up nothing but this article, YouTube videos, and a load of "TripAdvisor" type websites. These websites are all-inclusive by nature and are not independent of the subject, so are therefore unsuitable for asserting notability. Incidentally, Notability (Railway lines and stations) is an essay not a notability guideline, so it carries no weight in this discussion and it appears to be at odds with the main notability guideline WP:GNG. —gorgan_almighty (talk) 01:21, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The debate on this nomination has so far focused on two issues. The first is whether the article meets the criteria discussed in Wikipedia:Notability_(Railway_lines_and_stations). As that article makes no mention of articles about trains, the criteria discussed in that article simply don't apply. On the question as to what trains should generally be presumed to be notable, I would have thought that a train that has been given a name (such as the subject of this article) would normally qualify, and a train that has not been given a name would normally not qualify. On the question of sources, the following comments from Wikipedia:Notability#Notability requires verifiable evidence are appropriate: "Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the possibility of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article. Notability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources, not their immediate citation. Wikipedia articles are not a final draft, and an article's subject can be notable if such sources exist, even if they have not been named yet. However, once an article's notability has been challenged, merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially if time passes and actual proof does not surface. If it is likely that significant coverage in independent sources can be found for a topic, deletion due to lack of notability is inappropriate." The EC Mozart was a named train that ran from the capital city of France to the capital city of Austria, via Germany. I have just added a "further reading" section to the article that cites three books, published in France, Germany and Austria, respectively. They all cover the topic EuroCity, and therefore can all be expected to mention the EC Mozart. The French book was written by Europe's foremost expert on post-WWII European international trains. As has already been pointed out above, the EC Mozart would also have been mentioned in independent printed magazines published in (at least) those three countries from time to time (eg La Vie du Rail (published by the publisher of the French book I have added) and Eisenbahn Kurier (similarly published by a prolific publisher of books about railways)). There would been similar coverage in Today's Railways Europe (an English language magazine edited in France and published in the UK). It is therefore clear that the article should be kept. Bahnfrend (talk) 02:50, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - per comments from Bahnfrend - and also GNG and railway notability played against each other can make things confusing. EC Mozart is a notable named train - that should be sufficient. sats 03:48, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - As per Bahnfrend, pretty much. The coverage may well be offline, but it will certainly exist, and in non-railway sources as well. As for I'm Tony Am's comments, the information has to be verifiable, not verified. A route covering these major cities (let alone the fact it's not a national route, but one that goes through several countries) will blatantly be able to be verifiable. One thing I did find was: [4] Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 06:51, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The article isn't about the route, it is about the train itself. At best, this entry should be merged with an entry for the route or for the company that operates the train. I see nothing notable about the train itself. I'm Tony Ahn (talk) 07:27, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Try again, it's about both the train and the route that it travels - it's the only train that did that route at the time, so... Not only that, but the source I found discussed the route and the train. If you read the article, it's clearly about both the route and the train. As it should be, as they're basically one and the same. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 08:49, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree. A train is a physical object. A route is not. They are not the same thing. The entry is Mozart (train). Adding a second train to that route would be possible, and that fact further demonstrates that a route and a train are not the same. I'm Tony Ahn (talk) 11:51, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- WTF? This route was only ever served by one train. Adding a second train to the route would do jack shit in this case as the route is no longer active. A route is not the same thing as a train, but when one route is only ever covered by one train, and this one train only ever covers this one route, they ARE essentially the same thing. Ironically, you've doubled back on your own nomination statement, which said it was a non-notable route (wrong), and are now trying to claim it's a non-notable train (wrong). Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 13:14, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that once cannot say a train service and a route are the same thing, because multiple train services can ply the same route. You're saying A = B, and I'm saying A cannot equal B, because if another service was on the route, than C = B as well, which by syllogism means A = C, which is not true. Further, I never said it was a non-notable route. In fact I never used the word "route" in the nomination. That was your inference (wrong). I'm Tony Ahn (talk) 00:08, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- (edit conflict) A named train is a service on a specific route, not the specific rolling stock that operates it or any other physical object, for example there were simultaneous 10am Flying Scotsman (train) departures from both Edinburgh and London for many years of it's 150-year history (during which time it has obviously been operated by many types of physical train). At its peak the Atlantic Coast Express consisted of "up to five trains departing from Waterloo in the 40 minutes before 11.00a.m.". Thryduulf (talk) 13:20, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Clarifications - pretty much all EuroCity trains are daily train pairs, ie each day there is a train bearing that name travelling from A to B and a train bearing the same name travelling from B to A. But there are exceptions, eg there are four Berlin-Warszawa-Express trains each way each day. Also, the EC Mozart was not the only train pair between Paris and Vienna as, eg, the Orient Express also travelled that route. Bahnfrend (talk) 05:49, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The article isn't about the route, it is about the train itself. At best, this entry should be merged with an entry for the route or for the company that operates the train. I see nothing notable about the train itself. I'm Tony Ahn (talk) 07:27, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - major international train service of historic notability. Lack of google sources is not a strong argument - it is unlikely to be widely covered online because the Internet suffers from WP:RECENTISM. --Bermicourt (talk) 07:18, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I challenge anyone to find "significant media coverage" of this train (not the route) anywhere, online or off. A timetable is not media coverage. I'm Tony Ahn (talk) 07:27, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep' - User:Bahnfrend has referenced a few books and journals that cover the train. It is a unique, prestigious train service with 50+ years' history. ArtVandelay13 (talk) 09:30, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Sufficient references have been uncovered to establish notability for this train and/or route. I don't mind which of those we have an article on, but there is proper encyclopedic content to be written - especially about the 4-power period. Mcewan (talk) 12:17, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - article relies on three short paragraphs on a fan website, several timetables and a mention in a book about Mozart the composer. These aren't significant coverage in reliable sources, therefore the subject fails WP:GNG. We have no idea whether the 'Further reading' contains anything of significance - I would think that if it did, the author would have already referenced it in the article. Sionk (talk) 12:23, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- So basically, you've based your vote by ignoring 3 of the potentially available links? It's quite plausible that the article is mostly based off these books, with in-line refs to other things added (that's far from unheard of, after all.) Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 13:14, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm basically basing my decision on the lack of evidence of significant coverage in reliable sources. Rather than jumping on the bandwagon, as some people seem to be doing here.

I'm just responding to the various opinions that others post, so that newcomers to this AfD have both sides to weigh in order to make a decision. I have not gotten "personal" (ad hominem) with anyone here. This started when the article was proposed at WP:DYK/N, and the first thing I did when reviewing is ask for a second opinion. Both of the editors that responded said it failed WP:RS, so I nominated it for AfD. I'm Tony Ahn (talk) 13:17, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- {ec}}Keep, there are plenty of references to the train and its notability. The nominator's most recent objections seem to be based on a fundamental misunderstanding of what a named passenger train is (it's a service, not a physical object). Thryduulf (talk) 13:20, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Notability is sufficiently verifiable, and even verified. And a named passenger train is a service; any special equipment on it is secondary. Nom seems no to have known that at the time of nomination, and didn't sufficiently look at that before nominating. A good faith error. oknazevad (talk) 14:01, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- KEEP. I am surprised at the level of rancor that a train can spawn. I don't read all the rules about these things, rather ask myself, "Self, when someone goes looking for information about this train, and given that there is such a paucity of information available about it, is that not a reason to keep the article?" I found that I answered, "Yes, it is." Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 16:27, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, no Strong Keep. It is a notable and important named train. Named trains are rare and special things, especially those that catch the public imagination. The article as it stands establishes notability. If there is a problem with the project criteria, Perhaps they could be expanded. But as a WP article I find no fault with it.--Robert EA Harvey (talk) 17:29, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Named train with sufficient coverage. Even if the "guidline" the nom reference was valid, I think their confusing "line" with "train". A railway line is an actual physical track laid and/or operated by a specific company. A train is a locomotive with railcars that operate on the line. To say a train doesn't pass Wikipedia:Notability_(Railway_lines_and_stations) is like saying "Delete Justin Beiber because he doesn't pass WP:PORNBIO." --Oakshade (talk) 06:21, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Can we delete him in RL? --Robert EA Harvey (talk) 10:25, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, but the article is relatively poorly sourced. I vote "keep" because Wikipedia's deletion guidelines only require that there be compelling evidence that a subject is notable, not that such evidence must be included in the article at present, as Bahnfrend noted above. It's a named train that ran for more than half a century, with the same name and approximately the same route, serving several major cities in three countries. Tags urging the addition of better sources and more inline citations are definitely called for, but not deletion. Regarding the sourcing: Most of the content that is cited (with inline citations) comes from two websites, both of which are questionable sources. One, www.grahnert.de, identifies itself (in German) as "the Internet pages of Marcus Grahnert". Under WP:RS, very rarely are personal websites suitable sources for WP content (thousands of WP articles use such sources, but that doesn't make it acceptable). Mr. Grahnert may be well informed, and the content on his site may be very accurate, but there's no way for Wikipedia readers to know whether it is or not. The other source, www.trains-en-voyage.com, is also worrisome, because whoever is behind it does not identify themselves. Unlike Mr. Grahnert's site, this site appears to be for a group, but nowhere on the site can I find any information as to the name of a group, or person, it represents – not even on its "contact" page (which refers to the "webmaster" without giving any name); it has no "about [this website]" page, not in any language. Look, I'm a railfan myself, but websites of individuals or of unnamed groups that (apparently) have no paid staff or elected officers are not acceptable sources for WP content, because they have no accountability. Websites of formal organizations, even railfan ones, at least have some degree of accountability for accuracy of content that they put on the web, so I consider those to be OK. If Mr. Grahnert were a widely recognized authority on the subject area, or had authored several books, e.g., then I would hold a different view of whether his website is a suitable source for Wikipedia, but I find no evidence of that.

First, this appears to be a WP:COI as it seems to be written by the subject. Second, I simply cannot see any great reason for notability. Not chief executive of a major company, holder of an OBE, which is not generally considered a high enough honour for "automatic" inclusion, and his title is not a true peerage and has never granted him a seat in the House of Lords, so not a member of a legislature either.

- Lean towards keep: If CBE is automatic keep, then OBE must be marginal. He's in Who's Who in France.

- Lords are kept because at least theoretically they get a seat in the House of Lords (well most of them do), but this guy isn't that type of Lord, but another type, and he appears to have bought the title rather than in inherited the title, but he is an OBE, which makes him more Laura Trott than Victoria Pendleton.

The result was Keep. The appearance of belonging to "another Wikipedia project" (Danish-language Wikipedia?) is not a reason for deletion, let alone speedy deletion. If most or even all available published material about the subject of an article is in one or more languages other than English, this is also not a reason for deletion. And neither is the lack of material on the web about the subject of an article. The nominator would be wise to read "Reasons for deletion", and the relevant links from it, before nominating any other article for deletion. ¶ I have accelerated the close of this AfD in accordance with WP:SNOW. -- Hoary (talk) 04:44, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete, regretfully. It's true that female orthopedic surgeons are rare, and I'm glad she is succeeding in her field. However, she does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for an article. WP:GNG is not satisified for lack of coverage from multiple independent reliable sources. WP:BIO is not satisfied for lack of any notable award or position. WP:SCHOLAR is close - she publishes quite a bit for a person in private practice - but her work is not heavily cited, and it leans toward presentations at meetings rather than peer-reviewed journal articles. --MelanieN (talk) 16:51, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I don't see anything in Google books or Google news, and nothing of interest on Google web. The article has a great deal of unsourced info, such as the number of surgeries done last year, something that the topic "enjoys" (according to whom?), the entire first paragraph of "Careers and education", and the entire section "Professional memberships". Only three of the "Select publications" do not say "presented", "preliminary", or "unpublished". I'll defer to MelanieN's opinion above about the meaning of the remaining three journal articles. The award is published on prnewswire, and is sourced from a site that says, "Our mission is simple: To help you promote and preserve your achievements", so fails WP:PROMOTE. This also means that the material is self-published, so it is not a WP:RS. In spite of being active in the local community, something I don't see is coverage in either Business First of Louisville or The Courier-Journal. Looking at one of the sources given in the article shows that "Honeywick" (the same handle as the author of this article) has posted five press releases in the last month at [6].

- And what is lacking is explained in the links in my comment above, primarily significant coverage by multiple independent reliable sources. I'm sure she is a good surgeon, but this is an international encyclopedia, and it doesn't have an article about every good doctor in the world; they have to be a leader in their field in some way. And please don't make assumptions about gender; that may be a convenient complaint but it is not justified. I myself am female and involved in the medical field, and I would have LOVED to give a "keep" to this article, but the criteria just weren't there. --MelanieN (talk) 04:28, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It is all explained in WP:OSE. Dominus Vobisdu (talk) 01:42, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I took a look at one of the articles. In addition to being a surgeon, the man holds five world swimming records, 12 patents, and founded a hospital. Admittedly, this could all be hype given that there are no inline citations and I haven't checked the references. But a claim to having five world swimming records is easily verified. In comparison, the award listed for the current topic, according to the press release which for this purpose we don't consider reliable, is given annually to 5% of 870,000 physicians. Seriously, the editors in this AfD are the sweetest most well-mannered Wikipedians I've ever seen at an AfD, not a single one has (until now) linked to WP:COI. While I suggested that getting an article in Business First would be helpful, the absolute minimum for WP:GNG is considered to be two "good" articles, and you'll find that since there aren't really any standards enforced at Wikipedia, AfD is often the result of caprice rather than reason. For example, editors tend to turn up their nose at Business First. For example, I've even seen a lengthy article in Sports Illustrated dismissed. For another example, here is an example of a world-renowned personality who wrote a book translated into 15 languages who no longer has an article on Wikipedia.

It is stunning that everyone survived, which makes it all the more remarkable of an incident.

- Keep an improvable article on a crappy film that is receiving more-than-trivial attention perhaps for being so bad.[13][14][15] Wikipedia is not to be only about those films that are winners. Notability depends on coverage. If a crap film meets inclusion criteria, we may have an article on that topic.Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 22:32, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I concur with Schmidt... While this Indian film's plot may not sound promising and not worth that few bucks, Wikipedia does not have articles only on winning films everybody would pay to watch.

- Keep as he was director-general of the Inter-Services Intelligence, that makes him de facto notable. We have articles on CIA, MI5, Mossad etc. chiefs and the ISI is the major intelligence agency of Pakistan. There will obviously be less sources on him compared to other ISI chiefs as he was among the earliest heads of the organisation and the internet didn't exist back in the 1950s. That shouldn't be a reason to delete the article. Mar4d (talk) 09:40, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Notability is judged by coverage in reliable secondary sources, GBooks has only one book which mentions this person[19] and that is already a source in the article, being the head of an intel organization does not make you defacto notable, notability is not inheirited. Darkness Shines (talk) 10:11, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Yes, being the head of a major intelligence organization DOES make you notable. He's mentioned in these places, albeit not in any detail: [20][21][22]. He's particularly notable if he's the one that actually started the organization, as he appears to be. Offline sources will almost certainly have far more on him.

nonnotable unsourced page of euchre variations, violating WP:OR, WP:HOWTO, and, WP:NOT, and possibly WP:SYN Curb Chain (talk) 04:38, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Many books about card games discuss the specific topic of Euchre variations. Perhaps best known is Scarne's Encyclopedia of Card Games, but there are many others. The Chicago Tribune wrote about Euchre variations as long ago as 1877, and the fact that their writer described the game as "insufferably stupid" does not detract from notability and may actually add to it.

I linked to two sources above. What is your opinion of those, MezzoMezzo? Cullen328 Let's discuss it 15:41, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I think I and anyone else concerned would be willing for a brief extension while you or anyone else attends to personal matters before the discussion is closed out. Now, I did check them out and they certainly establish that the game is real, it existed and it was known (for being stupid). While only two reliable sources seem scant, the fact that the Chicago Tribune mentions it as being famous for being so stupid could be a good argument - this obviously makes it stand out from other card games, and negative coverage is still coverage. I'm also seeing a possible mention in this source as well as passing mentions on a bunch of gambling sites. I'm not opposed to voting to keep per se, but I would like to see more feedback than just you, me and the nominee. MezzoMezzo (talk) 06:42, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep The game obviously has variations and they are covered in numerous sources, as discussed by Cullen328. The worst case here is merger into the main article about Euchre. A deletion discussion is a waste of time. Warden (talk) 09:50, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This article is a violation of WP:BLP1E. Whilst it is clear that the subject has had some small bit parts in non-mainstream movies/TV shows, there is no coverage of these parts. The only sources I can find for her is to do with her Amazon lawsuit which is over the controversy to do with her age. This is clearly WP:BLP1E territory and as such the article should be deleted.

- Create article for the event, and redirect there While the subject is not notable for anything but the lawsuit, as I can find, there is no justification to keep the article. However, I do feel that the lawsuit itself is notable in the coverage that it has received ABC, Guardian, LA Times, Backstage, NY Post, Hollywood Reporter, and others. Per WP:Event, WP:GNG, and WP:1E. -Aaron Booth (talk) 02:24, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Create article for the event and redirect there. I was originally going to vote for a merge to IMDb, but upon seeing Aaron Booth's suggestion I have been swayed. MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:37, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Her identity was the subject of several independent blind-item gossip rag mags, and she herself became notable through the events that transpired--not as an actress for her work--but as the hidden identity behind the suit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deedbunk (talk • contribs) 05:26, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete; honestly not convinced an article on the lawsuit would be suitable either, but it's a better approach than this classic one-event biography. Andrew Gray (talk) 07:18, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Regarding one-event biography, I feel like this fits with "It is not the case that the event is significant and the individual's role within it is substantial and well-documented – as in the case of John Hinckley, Jr., who shot President Ronald Reagan in 1981." This was a major battle for Amazon/IMDb, and the arguments/decision have dressed the 1st Am. in new clothes DeedBunk —Preceding undated comment added 21:52, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:BLP1E and WP:NOTNEWS. This suit isn't notable enough for its own page. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:40, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep orMove to Hoang v. Amazon.com. The case has gotten significant attention, not just as a matter of news, but as a point of notable discussion about privacy law and age discrimination. See, for example, [26], [27], [28], [29], [30]; therefore, WP:NOTNEWS does not apply here. Arguably, this is subject to WP:BLP1E, but that's not grounds for deleting the article; that's grounds for moving it to an article on the event. TJRC (talk) 21:56, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]- Delete on BLP1E grounds per nom and Andrew Gray. No objection to creating an article such as Hoang v. Amazon.com, if this is a notable subject. PhilKnight (talk) 22:02, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Does not meet the standards of WP:NACTOR, and the lawsuit puts her squarely into WP:BLP1E territory as she is only in the news for that. Would not be opposed to a redirect to an article on the lawsuit if that itself is deemed notable. Tarc (talk) 16:15, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. She may fail WP:ACTOR, but the lawsuit makes her famous. I don't see a BLP issue, this is just another case of Streisand effect. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:58, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Do you not see a WP:ONEEVENT issue? If the woman is only known for one thing, filling a frivolous lawsuit, then that isn't enough to justify an article. The lawsuit itself is perhaps notable, but we shouldn't have a biography of a person just for something like this. Tarc (talk) 18:01, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The very fact that people want to suppress the easy access of information on her tells me we should make it available.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:52, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- What an utterly asinine reason to keep an article, your rationale rests entirely on being spiteful towards this individual. Tarc (talk) 18:01, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I'm persuaded that WP:BLP1E/WP:BIO1E apply here, and there should not be an article on Hoang herself. Apart from the notable lawsuit, she's a third-tier actor, and would not merit an article but for the lawsuit. The guidance in the WP:BLP1E policy and WP:BIO1E guideline anticipate that there is already a separate article on the event into which the content should be merged, but that's not the case here. A few editors have suggested creating an article and redirecting; or deleting without prejudice to recreating. Some have suggested just deleting based on the policy or guideline without considering the notability of the event. Because an article on the event will consist of substantially the same material as the "Lawsuit against IMDb" section, we should not delete this article and re-create that material. Apart from the inefficiencies of recreating deleted work, deletion and recreation will lose the history that needs to be maintained to comply with WP:CC-BY-SA. In light of that, the page should be moved to Hoang v. Amazon.com and edited to conform to the article being about the case rather than the actor (and to avoid WP:PSEUDO issues). I've changed my position above accordingly. TJRC (talk) 19:10, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - needs better sourcing, but I believe there's a reliable claim of notability. The original A7 deletion (which I could not see until the article was restored) was initiated by a WP:SPA account (WWright0330), so this may have also been a bad faith nomination to begin with.
