This person does not meet the notability guidelines for BLPs (basic criteria) and is relatively unknown. Also, the page contains contentious material which is poorly sourced. References used for this page are trivial coverage by secondary sources.
This person fails to meet the additional criteria for notability as well. The person has not received a well-known and significant award or honor, and has not been nominated for such an award several times. The person has not made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field. The person does not have an entry in the Dictionary of National Biography or similar publication. Mujaddouda (talk) 20:36, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

- Redirect, probably to Eluru. This could be notable automatically as a populated place in West Godavari, Andhra Pradesh, but I am not immediately finding its population. It has a post office, the Venkata Rao Peta post office, e.g. see info here. Since there is no substantial content to the article, redirecting to Eluru, preferably to a section on its neighborhoods, won't lose much, until there is substantial content with sources to create a separate article. --doncram 14:24, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

- Agree. — JFG talk 06:15, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment WP:deletion is not cleanup. Do you doubt that the Le Pens form a political family, and that that political family is a notable family? Clearly the article needs cleanup, and clearly the topic itself is notable. It just needs to be completely rewritten. A start would be WP:SUMMARYSTYLE sections for the three politicians. Then we can add more about the political grouping. -- 65.94.169.56 (talk) 05:07, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
- No, that would be WP:SYNTHESIS. A good start would be to find WP:RS discussing them as a family. — JFG talk 06:15, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
- The family clearly exists, any matter pertaining to the family as a whole would need new RSes, summarizing the family members (and that would be supported by RSes since they already state how these three are related) would not involve any synthesis, existing sources from the personal biography articles are enough to support summarizing that they are related to each other, and that each is politically active, and that each is a member of the National Front. That would be cleanup. Additional material treating the family as a whole would need to be added, with new sources. So, cleanup is not deletion. Cleaning it up does not involve synthesis, it would create a stub or start class article instead, sorely needing family-only material. -- 65.94.169.56 (talk) 03:56, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
- No, that would be WP:SYNTHESIS. A good start would be to find WP:RS discussing them as a family. — JFG talk 06:15, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
No I putted some sources about the family. Torygreen84 (talk) 10:38, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment We do have articles about political families - for instance, Kennedy family and Bush family - and those are well written, clearly notable, and in line with guidelines. So it absolutely can be done without violating WP:SYNTHESIS. The question is whether the Le Pen family rises to the same level as those two examples. If so, it should be kept and rewritten (remember, AFD is not cleanup, so the current state of the article is irrelevant). If not, I would support a redirect to Le Pen over deletion. I don't know enough about French politics to know whether they qualify. Smartyllama (talk) 20:24, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, redirect is the best solution at this stage. — JFG talk 20:29, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sandstein 10:36, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - Needs to be re-written, but with four or five family members, including Marie and her father, seems comparable to other political family pages (like the Bushes and the Kennedys) for example Kennedy family and Bush family Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:45, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
- Again, this would be feasible is we had sources discussing them as a family. There are plenty such sources for the Kennedys, the Bushes or the Clintons, I don't see one for the Le Pens, so anything we write here would be WP:OR or WP:SYN. — JFG talk 20:04, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
- Keep seems a justifiable article given the French establishment's fondness for dynastic continuities of power / influence / employment / celebrity status / etc. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 14:30, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - even if only as a disambig page (which is what the French Wikipedia has it as) or redirect - it's at least useful for navigation. This would also meet notability threshold for an article, given the family dynamics of this prominent family have been well-reported on (father clashing with daughter, relationships with the niece, etc.). Neutralitytalk 21:10, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
- I agree that a disambig page is fine, and we already have one: Le Pen, with the three generations represented. This is why I thought this "family" page is useless (unless of course some sourced material is added). I don't care personally whether we have an article on this family, but if we do it should be sourced not synthesized. — JFG talk 21:42, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
- I would not object to a redirect given that the family article is pretty bad. But I certainly want to leave the door open for a future better version of this article, given that there are sources that directly talk about the family that could sustain an article. E.g.,
- Cécile Alduy, The Devil's Daughter, The Atlantic (October 2013).
- The Economist explains: The Le Pen family feud, The Economist (April 13, 2015).
- Dov Alfon, Le Pen Family Feud Deteriorates Into Night of Long Knives After Crushing Loss in French Election. Ha'aretz (May 9, 2017).
- Paul Ames, France's far-right leading family is a mess of amazing gossip right now, GlobalPost (published by Public Radio International)
- Moira Weigel, Marine Le Pen's Memoir: a Dutiful Daughter's Sanitizing of Far-Right Politics: In 'À Contre Flots,' published in 2006, Le Pen reduces politics to family loyalty, New Yorker (May 6, 2017).
- I'm sure much more in the French language, of course. Neutralitytalk 04:14, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- Right, thanks for scouting those. Perhaps some day someone will actually write the beginning of a real article based on such sources. The current stub deserves only a redirect to the dab page. I am actually quite surprised that the French Wikipedia hasn't built anything but a list of the family members either. — JFG talk 08:02, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

- Redirect per nom. The fact that three or four notable people are related to each other is not, in and of itself, the definition of a notable political family — the ability to get the group over WP:GNG as a group is what matters. For example, there are many more notable Kennedys and many more notable Bushes than there are notable LePens — and in both cases, significant numbers of those notable family members don't even have the main family surname (see, frex, all the Smiths and Lawfords and Beales and Shrivers and Schwarzeneggers and Schlossbergs in the Kennedy family tree) and thus would never be locatable from the base Kennedy surname page in the first place. But all we've got here is four notables, of whom three are already on the surname page LePen as it is and the fourth is Marine's husband; there are only two people on that dab page outside of this group; and we have to depend on non-notable failers of WP:NPOL to pad this list out with anybody else — so that's just not enough noteworthy content to justify a standalone list of the politicians as a separate topic from the surname page.

This article was nominated for deletion in 2008, but was kept on the grounds of meeting WP:NBAND. At the time, the criteria for NBAND were somewhat looser/more prone to being misinterpreted. Participants argued that since some of the band's music had appeared in some TV shows, the band passed NBAND criteria 10: "Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g., a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc."
It seems clear to me however that simply having one's music be in the background in a TV show doesn't meet the criteria. What qualifies is having one's music be the theme song, or performing in a TV show, as in, the band is onscreen performing. As well, NBAND has been clarified to advise that if C10 is the only claim to notability, WP:BLP1E applies and a redirect to the main article is more appropriate.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
I have serious concerns about this page. First of all, it appears Mr. Fagan does exist, and at least some of the information in the article is verifiable from published sources. However, the bulk of this article is cited to this webpage which claims Mr. Fagan "agreed that the students could mount a Wikipedia entry about him," which entry was reproduced on that page. The bulk of the text of this article and that one are identical. This one was created first, and it seems they copied us, meaning this isn't a copyvio but is a particularly egregious example of circular referencing. That page also says that, "Informed consent, an audio recording, and extended paper documentation for the interview are available at the Woodson Research Center, Fondren Library, Rice University." and it provides a link to [4], which gives a result of page not found. A search on that website for "David Fagan" yields no results So it seems this article is largely based on original research consisting of an interview with the subject by his students who then wrote the Wikipedia page, which was copied to the Houston ARCH website, and then the Wikipedia page proceeded to cite its mirror as a source. Next, most of the rest of the sources cited in the article are dead links. At least one sentence in the article (concerning the school he taught at) appears to be inaccurate. I'm able to find several mentions of him in various magazines and websites focusing on athletics in the gay community, but they are passing mentions, not enough to build an article around. He seems to be at least marginally notable, and I hesitated to nominate this for deletion, but I really don't think this article is salvageable. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 17:09, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- I promoted the page while working Category Stale Drafts [5]. It is impossible to make headway there if you try to fix every page you find. I appreciate editors like ONUnicorn who consistently dig into topics like this and improve articles. As ONUnicorn also found, the subject appears marginally notable but I agree the page has issues, and if the issues can't be resolved, I trust ONUnicorn's judgement here.

WP:BLP of a writer, whose only discernible claim of notability per WP:AUTHOR is that she won a literary award ("North Dakota Library Association") which is not notable enough to constitute a WP:AUTHOR pass in and of itself. There are no reliable sources being cited here to get her over WP:GNG, either, as the article is referenced entirely to GoodReads and her primary source profiles on the websites of her own publishers, with no evidence of media coverage about her being shown at all. As always, writers are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- an actual notability claim, and the reliable sourcing to support it, must be present for an article to become earned. Bearcat (talk) 14:31, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- Keep As per WP:AUTHOR, a subject may be notable if "the person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work [...] covered by multiple independent periodical articles or reviews". In my opinion, Kulling has created many well known books, as can be evidenced by the number of third party sources giving references to her work. For example, her book was listed by The Boston Globe amongst The Best Picture Books of 2014.[6] Similarly, her work was amongst the finalists for the Governor General’s Literary Awards,[7][8] apart from being amongst the finalists for the Silver Birch Awards.[9] I'm not saying that these are or aren't notable things; I'm bringing these to the fore to support the fact that her work is very well known, as required per AUTHOR. Additionally, her work has been the subject of multiple reliable reviews, for example - [10][11][12][13][14] This seems to qualify the subject on WP:AUTHOR in my opinion. I can include these sources within the article, in case the subject is kept. Thanks. Lourdes 15:23, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

- comment Well, I don't know Mathew wrote them or who, I see them as independent resources, if Buzzfeed and all other well-known websites are not valid then please explain me the policies? I just saw those in a recent research so I thought to fix it. There are many articles out here with a single or no reference, anyway, none of my concerns. What do you call notability? I saw him as a fashion Icon and celebrity and well known within the elite class that's why I thought to create an article. I think your comment is Biased as you are judging and expressing ambiguity that all those articles are self-written while they clearly state that who wrote them. I am trying to learn more about Wikipedia because I am planning to contribute my readings and research about people. Please explain! like if someone praises Donald trump's qualities in the article it means Donald Trump wrote that article about himself? Nuck2u (talk) 19:44, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
- He's Donald Trump now? Be realistic. See WP:BIO and WP:GNG for an understanding of what Wikipedia's guidelines are.
- The Buzzfeed article is "community" content, meaning it has no substantial editorial oversight or fact-checking, nor is it useful for establishing notability, since it's essentially user generated content. It's also an interview, which is very poor for notability, since it's not independent of Mathew.
- The YFS Magazine ("Young, Fabulous, and Self-Employed") article was written by Mathew, and is likewise not independent. It's also devoid of substance or real insight, which makes it hard to take seriously, but that's only tangentially relevant. Since he wrote it himself, it is not usable for establishing notability.
- The rest of the sources are either listings or unreliable. The Essex Star may or may not be reliable, but even if it is, it's a just a gossip column. C&F is neither neutral, nor clearly reliable.
- I don't know if Mathew was directly involved in writing this Wikipedia article, but it's promotionally written and thinly sourced, so it's indistinguishable from spam. Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion. Grayfell (talk) 19:04, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
- So your decisions are based on assumptions and self-thoughts. All things you shared proves that he desrves the page. See the section of WP:ENT what point 2 and 3 says fits his profile. He developed/innovated a well-known APP for Elite class and also Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following. And obviously, if someone is writing about a personality he/she will focus on his/her qualities and positive traits. There are hundreds of stubs and pages that do not have a single reference, if they could stay why not this one? Or if you don't know anything about those pages maybe I can launch AFD on all of them so you can also explain them to me because I want to know why. and also see that he is a brand ambassador of a famous brand in the UK and well-known in the world, that also full fills another requirement Nuck2u (talk) 15:46, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

- Delete - even assuming everything is verified, I don't see what makes him more than a run of the mill brand marketer. I can think of several more such people who are more notable, but don't have articles: Kory Aversa and Libby Post amongst the lot. While the subject of this page is mentioned or interviewed in some good sources, so are many other brand entrepreneurs with their 15 minutes of fame. I don't see significant coverage of him rather than the products he sells. "Sooner or later" is not good enough for an encyclopedia.

Non notable actor. Most probably a vanity page created by a now blocked user who was probably a paid editor for Malayali expats in Bahrain (per the plethora of warnings on his talk page). Has supposedly performed some minor role in Ritu, though the IMDB page lists a Jay Menon. Has also supposedly won some non notable awards. The Kalabhavan Mani awards she claims to have won is probably a non notable award. (An organisation recently initiated a small scale Kalabhavan Mani memorial award, though she has not won that as well). Fails WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR, if it ever was applicable.

Seems to be most noted for his rugby playing. However, all the teams he's played for seem quite minor. There's a mention of him playing for Ireland under-21s but the ref. is dead and I cannot find other confirmation. There's a mention of semi-professional play for a French club, but the name isn't given and the ref. brings up a 404. I have not found noteworthy mentions of him in Google searches.

- Delete While the Internet Archive does have a copy of the ourfc page used as a reference, it only lists him as being an Ireland U21 player in the player list and does not expand on that. I have not found anything else to back up that already meagre claim to notability on Rugby grounds. Statbunker shows someone of that name playing 5 matches for Henley Hawks on 2005 and the ourfc website ref shows at least 2 appearances for Oxford university. On their own neither of those is sufficient to show rugby union notability. Seems to be a minor bureaucrat working in Brussels with nothing showing wider notability and references are all minor from college sources. noq (talk) 14:10, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

- Delete, fwiw I saw this new creation and was about to start a thread at WT:ASTRO to see if they thought it was necessary to have pages for these non-existent objects (there are a bunch of pages it seems, 111, 122, 123, 7028, etc).

- Delete as there is no specific notability guideline for non-existent objects – they are not notable unless they pass WP:GNG.

- Merge and redirect to List of NGC objects (6001–7000). That's the sensible place to note that this NGC number is assigned to a false sighting. --Lockley (talk) 21:03, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment - If this was a false sighting, in which case it was thought to exist, then, first, should the list note that it was a false sighting, and, second, was it thought to be in Lyra (an actual constellation), and is there a typo in the name of the constellation? Robert McClenon (talk) 22:03, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
- Well let me correct myself. In regard to the New General Catalog, "non-existent" does not mean "does not exist." A research paper written in 1993, which is abstracted here and discussed here, counts 229 entries classified as "non-existent". That's roughly 3% of the total 7840 NGC entries. The paper found that five were duplicates, 99 existed "in some form", 124 needed further research, and only one -- NGC 1498 -- for sure did not exist. So "non-existent" here is a historical categorization which doesn't correspond AT ALL with actual discoveries. As to how to reflect all this, I'd stand by a Merge and Redirect on the grounds that NGC 6666 is not individually notable, and in any case it would be useful to have an explanation of "NGC non-existence" on the NGC article. I'll do that part. --Lockley (talk) 22:59, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

As this is a service like Netflix or Hulu, games will come and go. As such, this is basically serving as a catalog for the service, which we are not. MASEM (t) 03:03, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

- Keep this doesn't call under WP:NOTCATALOGUE as it's similar to other "list of " articles for Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo, and catalogues tend to delete historic entries and products, Wikipedia does, and should not, as long as it could be well sources it would meet notability. Therefore I argue that it should not be deleted on the above argument. --Donald Trung (talk) 05:35, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- We do keep track of games released for systems, and as noted on previous talk pages, you can't "unrelease" a game. But games on this service are not new releases, and they will come and go. If they offer unique titles you can't get anywhere, like Netflix's original series, then you now have something comparable to the existing MS, Sony, and Nintendo lists, which we would track. But not existing games. That's why this is a catalog since it tells you want they offer as a service, the other lists tracking what has been released over all time. --MASEM (t) 05:42, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- But straight out deletion wouldn't be the best option, merge this into another Xbox game list article or Microsoft-related product page would be better. And it does cover multiple systems and there seem to be plenty reporting on it to make it notable. Donald Trung (talk) 16:24, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- The service itself is notable; the games connected to it are not. As Masem stated, the exception would be if and only if Microsoft publishes Game Pass-exclusive content. --McDoobAU93 13:04, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

- And it should be noted that if there was an external link that had this type of list (either MS directly or even a well-kept Wikia), then an EL at the bottom of the page for the Xbox Game Pass program would be very much in line. --MASEM (t) 13:38, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

This article does not follow WP:BIO because there are no sources other than this single manchester united listing of former players, which shows that he played for two years in the 1890s.

- Weak delete because biographies need to be sourced. LBHS Cheerleader (talk) 02:54, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - article is sourced. Source shows 40+ appearances for Manchester United. A quick check of one of his match dates in the newspapers of the time show him in the planned line-up (this is the September 9, 1893) edition of the Manchester Courier and Lancashire General Advertiser on page 11 under Football - Fixtures For To-Day. The simplest of Google searches with just his team name and surname yields 124,000 hits, with some legitimate ones right on the first page such as one, two, and three as examples. And even if one was unaware that arguably the most famous football team in the world didn't used to have a different name, a click on "what links here" would have made that clear. Clicking on the Russian version of this article, which is very well referenced (ru:Дэвидсон, Уилл) would have found a good list of references which are primarily in English! This is a massive fail of WP:BEFORE, and I don't understand User:Williambellwisdo claim that it is not sourced, nor do I understand User:LBHS Cheerleader clearly not doing the most basic research before agreeing. Nfitz (talk) 20:25, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment This is the first articles for deletion I had created - in general, as I understand it at least, doesn't there have to be some amount of coverage not just incidentally of the person, but about the person themselves? All I can find for this guy is listings of their lineup when he happened to have played or at most very brief snippets - nothing that tells us about him other than that he existed. For example: here, here, here, here, and here. Overall there is nothing written about Will Davidson alone, but only about the team during that time in which he is sometimes mentioned. Sorry about the formatting - I don't know what went wrong. -William (talk)
- There seems to be plenty of writing about him in 100-year old documents, some of which can be found in Google Books. Not much in the current papers ... - but it's for situations like this, that we have WP:BEFORE and subject-specific notability guidelines - specifically WP:NSPORTS where if you scroll down to WP:NFOOTBALL which notes that Players who have played, and managers who have managed in a competitive game between two teams from fully-professional leagues, will generally be regarded as notable. . So 40+ matches with Manchester United (or whatever they called themselves back then) is so far past the bright line that as long as we can verify that they actually exist and did indeed do what was said, then there's no point pulling out 100-year old documents to prove notabilty.

- Keep per WP:NFOOTBALL. He retired due to a serious injury. There's probably some published information about that, but it might not be online. This might require physical research of archives from the 1894-1895, possibly including a visit to Manchester. There may even be a related obituary, because medical care wasn't great back then. Jack N. Stock (talk) 05:02, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- Hmm, might be able to tease a death date out of genealogical data and find an obituary. How many William Davidson's could be born in Scotland and living there in the 1891 census ...gosh about 20 per year it would seem. Well, maybe not ... need another clue. Oh well, doesn't matter, still notable - though an obituary sure would help the article itself. Nfitz (talk) 17:13, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- Davidson was still alive in 1903 because he recruited Alex Bell for Manchester United. I wonder if he had some sort of formal relationship with the club at that time. Jack N. Stock (talk) 05:03, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
- Ah, good catch. I've been fishing in the 1891 through 1911 censuses, without much luck. There is one I fancied in Rochdale in 1901/1911, particularly after I realised his house backed onto a football pitch; but if he was in Ayr in 1903, that now seems unlikely. Presumably he was back in Ayr by 1903. Though that clue might help - wish the 1901/1911 Scottish censuses were more accessible without $. (I figure that if we can identify him genealogically, we can establish a date of death, find his obituary, and flesh out his article). Nfitz (talk) 00:23, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- And with that tidbit, I've got a possible 1901 census entry in Scotland, age 32, married, and working as a coal-miner in Ayr. The one thing that jumped out at me though was he was born in Annbank - where Davidson previously played football. No trace in 1911 though. A couple of death possibilities, but no media coverage I could see. Searching the media more generally, the only thing that pops in a January 13 1903 mention of the Alec Bell signing in the Athetic News (Page 8), referring to Will Davidson as "the Heathens’ old captain, and fair player ever donned a jersey, regards Alec. Beil, whom the United have just engaged. ae about good pivot can found Scotland." - well that seems notable. A proper $ research account to go through the British Newspaper Archive further would be of use - especially to download that particular page, because clearly the OCR in the search results is a bit lacking!. That's a good 2-hours+ digging. Maybe someone can take that someday and find something - 50 years from now or something. Nfitz (talk) 01:19, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

- Delete. Nothing here is a strong enough claim of notability that he would get an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of a WP:GNG-passing volume of reliable source coverage about him — but of the three "references" here, two are on an unreliable fansite for the radio station he worked at and the third is the personal website of a former colleague, which means none of them constitute reliable sources for the purposes of establishing wikinotability. I'm willing to reconsider this if somebody with better access than I've got to US media coverage of the 1970s and 1980s can locate stronger evidence that he would actually pass GNG for something, but nothing here entitles him to an exemption from having to be shown to pass GNG. Bearcat (talk) 20:22, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- Maintain. Fair enough, here are some notable facts from reliable sources. Cruz was the last DJ hired at what was the number-one top-40's radio station in North America.[2] He ultimately replaced Dan Ingram — "the greatest afternoon drive jock ever" — in the high revenue-generating timeslot of afternoon-drive.[3][4] Later, he became the on-air announcer for ABC's 20/20 program.[5][6] His resignation from WABC in 1981 marked the beginning of a string of departures at the station, triggered by a drop in ratings that precipitated the change to an all-talk format.[7] Cruz was a casualty of AIDS in 1995, by which time 500,000 cases had been reported in the U.S. [8][9] Upon his death, ABC's 20/20 did a special tribute to him. algocu (talk) 18:31, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

- Delete. Non-notable, most of the existing sources don't even mention "Bob Cruz". - TheMagnificentist 11:15, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- Weak keep. Current sourcing does not impress, but he received fairly consistently ongoing, if minor, coverage in broadcasting industry periodicals. There's quite a bit about the WABC format changes, in both Billboard and Television/Radio Age. I don't have access to most of this from where I am currently (especially the Television/Radio Age material). That said, the Billboard "Vox Jox" column (dedicated to DJ news) mentioned him fairly often: his hiring, timeslot and format changes, an acknowledgement that he was the most successful then-current DJ for the station (in the 1980-09-06 issue), his departure from radio to focus on 20/20 (1981-03-07), and a detailed (and very different from the previous week) report on his departure from the station (1981-03-14). I would not be immensely surprised for contemporary print sources to have offered more coverage of his tenure at 20/20 and his 1980 work announcing the Summer Olympics for ABC.

OK, so he was a kid who worked with TE Lawrence some, but the article itself seems to be about (largely debunked) insinuations about his "relationship" with Lawrence which the latter's biographers do not find convincing (as noted in the rather messy section on his article about his sexuality).
This article is just thinly-veiled insinuation with some completely unremarkable biographical details thrown in. The vast majority of the sources I've been able to find online have erected him as some sort of LGBT icon, which doesn't seem to meet the bar for inclusion here for the reason I just noted.
I'd like to hear what everyone else thinks about this. I don't personally think it even warrants a merge into Lawrence's article. Kakurokuna (talk) 20:47, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- weak keep - He was a real person, but it’s clear that he only is notable in his connection with T.E. Lawrence. While it has not been proved, it is fairly widely believed among Lawrence scholars that Dahoum is the “S.A.” to whom Seven Pillars of Wisdom is dedicated, and the subject of Lawrence’s remark “I loved a particular Arab, and thought freedom for their nation would be an acceptable gift.” For me, that crosses the notability bar, but I can see that there is room for debate on the subject. I believe there was some news coverage of Dahoum’s pre-war visit to Britain, arranged by Lawrence and in company with another local resident of the Carchemish area; but I’ve never taken the trouble to dig it up.

- Merge - I don't think he is notable enough in his own right to have a page, but certainly notable enough to be merged with Lawrence.PohranicniStraze (talk) 04:57, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- Delete (or redirect) -- My immediate reaction to this was NOTINHERITED. I do not think the tag for facts being unverified is appropriate. The article sets out the issues clearly. Lawrence died in a motor cycle accident some 80 years ago and the subject nearly a century ago: as often with historical subjects, certainly is impossible. The subject's only potential notability comes from his connection with Lawrence, at a period of his life when Lawrence was a not particularly notable young archaeologist. The whole thing seems to be a COATHANGER for the innuendo that Lawrence was gay, an issue of which I know little. However I am disturbed at the number of historical figures whom the LGBT lobby has appropriated to its cause, often on the basis of very limited evidence.

- Redirect to T. E. Lawrence, or else weak keep (but rename) if someone wants to put in a lot of legwork here. Dahoum was a real person, and he's discussed in quite a bit of real literature—respected biographies and scholarly publications—but, so far as I can determine, always in context to his relationship with Lawrence (whether that's his work relationship, as a photographer, and the potential that some of the photographs accredited to Lawrence were taken by Dahoum instead; or the theorized homosexual relationship, which modern sources are pretty divided on, but which the contemporary Arabs certainly believed was actually occurring). There's simply no coverage of him separate from the actions of Lawrence, and that's pretty much the keystone of NOTINHERITED. That said, I could be proven wrong here; if the article is to be retained, I'd strongly suggest we title it under the individual's real name, Selim Ahmed, with a redirect from his (widely used) sobriquet.

This is basically WP:SOAP created by a WP:SPA with a WP:COI (that has been on a tirade to advertise this person by creating articles about companies that they may be involved in). IMHO the article does not pass WP:GNG and as a result, it should be deleted. Nicnote • ask me a question • contributions 22:40, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - this is little more than a c.v. of a documentary film maker. There is no significant coverage of the subject - only blogs, social media, and a India Times article about new films, not about him in depth. None of his films seems to have made it out of some film festivals. Sorry, but he fails WP:BLP, WP:CREATIVE, and WP:GNG. His work sounds interesting, assuming it's all true. Bearian (talk) 21:59, 24 May 2017 (UTC)
- Week keep the subject seems to meet WP:CREATIVE as the director of the notable film Pinda Vicho Pinda Sunida. If that film is not notable, then it shouldn't have an article. Newimpartial (talk) 16:18, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

- Delete I found a few mentions of him ([15], [16], [17] and [18]). Plus he has also conducted a film festival. His film Pinda Vicho Pinda Sunida's Wikipedia page will most likely be deleted.

Despite the impressive list of references there's no evidence of notability. The references don't even allow us to confirm that Amit Kalantri, the author of the cricket biography, is the same person as Amit Kalantri the mentalist. Most are just words of wisdom attributed to a person of that name, but without any indication when or in what context Kalantri might have said them, or whether the person being quoted is either the mentalist or the cricket author.

- Keep -- significant as part of the Young Earth creationism. Here are sample sources:
- Dinosaur museum presents biblical view of origins: A faith-based Creation -- this is a local source, but the coverage is quite in depth
- Dinosaurs by the Decades: A Chronology of the Dinosaur in Science and Popular Culture, book mention
- There has also been some local controversy around whether school trips should be allowed. I would say it's akin to the Creation Museum article and should be kept / expanded. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:36, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
- I don't have super strong feelings either way, but I guess my question is the point at which a local controversy reaches "significant coverage." That other museum has been widely covered in the national press. Not so sure about this one. It got a lot of press because of Greg Gianforte donating to it, but take out all the coverage linked to him and there's not much left, IMHO. Montanabw(talk) 03:21, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

- Keep We generally do keep small museums that have reliable sourcing; even museums with a controversial perspective. In this case, the Greg Gianforte-related discussiong, ongoing since at least 2015, enhance notability.
