The result was merge to Anna Nicole Smith. As noted in the discussion, this could have been done without needed to go to WP:DRV, but since we're here, the merge proposal is now stamped with the official DRV seal of approval. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:36, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

- Comment - Per WP:ATD and WP:BOLD, why nominate this if it can be merged/redirected? Thsmi002 (talk) 23:33, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Because the merge request has gone stale for five months - that's almost half a year. So IMO I think this should be quick enough. FoxyGrampa75 (talk) 00:12, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- The merge request has gone stale because nobody has yet done anything about it. You are just as responsible for that as anyone else. As Thsmi002 asked, why not merge it yourself instead of nominating for deletion? Phil Bridger (talk) 08:19, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

- Merge to Anna Nicole Smith (and concur with above that if no one was actually opposed - you could've just done it - no need for an AfD). In my BEFOREing while I see some continuing mentions of the 2009 issue - e.g. [1], Muñoz, Ricardo. "Not a ‘Monkey Business’." The Translator 18.2 (2012): 363-371., Rife, Martine Courant. "Cross-Cultural Collisions in Cyberspace: case studies of international legal issues for educators working in globally networked learning environments." E-Learning and Digital Media 7.2 (2010): 147-159. - they seem to be fairly brief mentions of the event itself. Note that this is more of a first amendment case than crime - yes - she was jailed for contempt of court (for not handing over her computer) - but the issue here was related to her blogging.

- You're not looking very hard: the spellings "Thong Van Thanmuong", "Thong Van Phan Moeung" etc bring up plenty of citations. Svejk74 (talk) 14:04, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Svejk74, the search yield on both spellings is low – "Thong Van Thanmuong" (1 result) and "Thong Van Phan Moeung" (5 results), none of which fall under WP:RS. I have tried other combinations too. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 14:45, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. While I am not enthusiastic about the sources available, including the one I just cited in the article, it must be pointed out that the article is about one of the leaders in the losing side of a genocidal war, which targeted libraries and destroyed the written word. Outside their country, how likely is it that the "reliable sources" exist? The small detail I added to me speaks of notability, even as an article about one of the U.S. joint chiefs of staff would be notable.Jacqke (talk) 02:23, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. As a general clearly meets the criteria of WP:SOLDIER. As a member of the supreme committee, probably also meets WP:POLITICIAN. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:16, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Politicians-related deletion discussions. Necrothesp (talk) 10:19, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- As I have noted in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sau Sovanney, WP:SOLDIER is an "essay" which suggests that the fulfillment of one of its criteria leads to presumption of notability in favour of an individual, however that does not trump the requirements under WP:BIO and WP:GNG. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 14:08, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- It is an essay that is generally held to be a notability standard for military bios and has almost always been held to be such at AfD. And note that WP:POLITICIAN is not an essay. For this general, given his status, my opinion stands. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:27, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks again, for your response. I have not been able to determine the exact nature of the "supreme committee" referred in the biographical article. It appears to have been a body constituted to take charge of negotiations for surrender with the Khmer Rouge as the Khmer Republic came close to a collapse. According to Sak Sutsakhan, who served as the chairman of this committee,[2] its members included the following individuals: (1) Lt. Gen. Sak Sutsakhan; (2) Maj. Gen. Thong Van Fanmuong; (3) Rear Admiral Vong Sarendy; (4) Brig. General Ea Chhong; (5) Mr. Long Boret, Prime Minister; (6) Mr. Hang Thun Hak, Vice Prime Minister; (7) Mr. Op Kim Ang, Representative of the Republican Party.[3] If the role of Fanmuong can be shown to be political within this body, then I would withdraw this nomination. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 15:31, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- If he was senior enough to have been a member of a committee set up to negotiate surrender terms for his country then I would have thought he would be considered notable by anyone's standards. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:10, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
- Weak Keep. He was a member of the 6-general supreme committee that held power for a few days after the president fled. He meets WP:SOLDIER's presumed notability and given the multiple variants of his name in English and possible sources in non-English I'm going with the presumed notability here. Verifying he was on the supreme comittee is easy - [4] [5], [6], [7], [8]. Icewhiz (talk) 12:01, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - per Icewhiz - If this committee held power, that would certainly push him past GNG. Perhaps some more research needs to be done to improve the article, but the bare minimum notability requirements are here. Dusti*Let's talk!* 06:50, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - per strong notability arguments made by Jacqke. Also, passes WP:SOLDIER. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 07:49, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
- @AuthorAuthor: can you further elaborate on how Jackqe's rationale is so strong? Is it in accordance with policy? — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 04:41, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: Thanks very much, Necrothesp and Icewhiz, for your constructive comments on this AFD. I believe that the WP:BIO and WP:GNG requirement of establishing significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject has not yet been met. In which case, even if we assume that the additional criteria under WP:POLITICIAN has been achieved, the subject of the biography is at best a "special case". In such cases, WP:BIO recommends that the article in question be merged into a broader article providing context. I believe that would be the most suitable conclusion in case of this article, as the subject can still find a place in a biographical section alongside the other members of the Supreme Committee of the Khmer Republic. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 05:23, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- I would concur that GNG hasn't been established by sources in this AfD - though we do have quite a few short mentions in reputable sources. HOWEVER, in this particular case - a government/military figure active in the 60s-70s (a tricky period, actually, for digitized material - as much of it is still under copyright) with multiple variations on his Latin-form (English/French) name and, one would presume, even more sources in Khmer - I am basing my !vote on the presumption (per SOLDIER and possibly NPOL as well) that additional sources are available just not located in this AfD. Icewhiz (talk) 05:31, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Icewhiz: I think it would be extremely unlikely to be able to find high-quality and reliable sources in the Khmer language regarding this individual. While I am unable to determine the correct spelling for Fanmuong in Khmer script (ផានមើង?), I have tried searching for "Thongvan Khmer Republic" (ថុងវ៉ាន សាធារណរដ្ឋខ្មែរ — [9], [10], [11], [12]) but even that did not yield relevant results. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 05:47, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- Are Khmer publications from the 60s and 70s (as well as later) generally available online (with public access for google)? I know that for other languages (e.g. Hebrew) - this is often not the case (and for English - google often won't cut it for the period - though Proquest and other subscription based newspaper searches often will). I would assume one of the top-ranking generals would have significant periodic press coverage at the very least. Icewhiz (talk) 05:54, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Icewhiz: News records in the Khmer language from that period are unlikely to be available as they were largely destroyed during the Democratic Kampuchea regime. Many published books survived as they were taken out of the country before the Khmer Rouge took over. Some of these books have been archived online. At the same time, due to a sizeable increase in US foreign and military aid to the country, and the increased presence of US advisors during the Khmer Republic period, a proportional increase in interest in the US media may also be assumed for that period, which should increase the likelihood for significant coverage of prominent individuals from during the period. In any case, the absence of general records, even for good reasons, does not create preponderance of evidence in favour of the existence of records on a particular individual. Please also note that I am not advocating for extirpation of records regarding this individual from Wikipedia, but only that their biography may be merged into a broader article (redirect and merge with Supreme Committee of the Khmer Republic once that article is created). In any case, I think this AFD ought to be re-listed so that there is more time to gather evidence and to seek wider community input. In the meantime, I'm trying out other combinations of his name in Khmer script to see if I can get anything ("ថោងវង្ស ផាន់មួង", "ថោងវ៉ាន់ ផាន់មួង", "ថុងវ៉ាន់ ផាន់មឿង"). — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 06:34, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- Had such an article existed - perhaps. However, while Wikipedia is not a RS, I do see that ruwiki is claiming that he was (I would assume for a few days - in the collapse after everyone fled) - the supreme commander of Khmer National Armed Forces in command during the last defense of Phnom Penh. In this particular instance - keeping a stub and allowing it to develop might be a better course of action. Icewhiz (talk) 06:43, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- The ruwiki article does not reference any reliable sources to establish that he did, in fact, serve as the Supreme Commander of FUNK. Although, again, if this can be shown to be definitively true, it would create a very strong presumption in favour of notability in my view. In any case, thanks very much for your time and for engaging me on this. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 06:48, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

The result was redirect to Health food. Redirect is not strictly the consensus, but it keeps the history around if somebody wants to merge something (see WP:COPYWITHIN for attribution requirements) and I think this is a middle ground that will satisfy everybody here. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:03, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. The search should be done in Russian for "Миля Гатауллина" [13], and it finds a number of sources about her. What convinces me is the existence of a whole book written by someone else specifically about the artist [14].

- I can't judge how authoritative was the book about the artist published in 2008. But there is a page on ruwiki about the publisher (see ru:Белый город (издательство)), and it looks just fine. So, the book would probably qualify as WP:RS. Regardless, there are multiple significant publications about the person, and she was a recipient of multiple significant awards. My very best wishes (talk) 15:47, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep It appears that the subject meets WP:NARTIST with works in the permanent collections of at least two notable galleries, and she has won significant awards. I am not sure if she is a member of the Russian Academy of Arts - I don't think its website shows that. It does say that she is a member of the Moscow Academy of Artists [15], and that she has been a member of "МСХ" since 2002. Google Translate translates that as the Ministry of Agriculture, which I am sure can't be right - it must be an acronym for more than one organisation. Anyway, she does appear to meet notability guidelines, and there are some sources online which verify the information in the article. No doubt more sources exist offline. (I have added a couple of sources, with titles given as "unknown" - not very satisfactory, but with snippet views the title of the section or article within the journals is not visible.) RebeccaGreen (talk) 09:13, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

Fluff piece on a non-notable individual. The subject of the biography does not pass the muster at WP:BIO and WP:GNG. The sources used on the article are from sites that cannot be considered as reliable sources due to the quality of reporting or their lack of independence from the subject of the article and the government. Most of the articles referenced are written in the form of press releases, sourced from Cambodian government departments and agencies.

Keep. As a general, clearly meets the criteria of WP:SOLDIER. Government sources are considered to be reliable sources to establish the rank and career of a government employee. It is a common misconception that they are not. The quality of the article is irrelevant to the notability of the subject. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:21, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks very much for expressing your opinion on the subject, Necrosthesp. I would like to propose that you reconsider your !vote based on the following facts: (1) Cambodia has one of the most bloated and top-heavy militaries in the world. For a relatively small country of 16m+ population, the armed forces have over 2,000 generals; see also, report in the Phnom Penh Post — [16]. Phnom Penh Post notes in the same article: “This is common,” said one staffer, who has spent almost a decade within the ministry. “A general of two stars may take off his stars and become a lieutenant colonel so they can negotiate with their counterpart.” Put simply, he said, there are two contexts: Cambodia and the world. Another article in Post quotes an unnamed diplomat — [17]: However, a member of the diplomatic community with in-depth knowledge of Cambodia’s armed forces yesterday dismissed the idea that those promoted had met any stringent requirements. “The ranks are meaningless,” they said. “In most cases, they are promoted to the next rank without any increase in responsibility or function . . . it’s become almost an expectation that you should be promoted as a reward for loyalty.” See also more articles discussing this issue — [18], [19], [20]; (2) With regard to criteria #2 on WP:SOLDIER, i.e. Held a rank considered to be a flag, general or air officer, or their historical equivalents — it appears to me, going by the definition provided in General officer, that the reference contained in the "essay" is to generals that are "four star" rank and above. The subject's rank, on the other hand, is that of a "three-star" Lieutenant General, therefore the subject does not meet the criteria listed under WP:SOLDIER; (3) Furthermore, WP:SOLDIER notes: Likewise, those who are only mentioned in passing in reliable secondary sources should not be considered notable for the purposes of a stand-alone article, although, depending upon the circumstances, they may warrant mention within an existing article or list. In determining this, the breadth of coverage should be considered. If, for instance, there is enough information in reliable sources to include details about a person's birth, personal life, education and military career, then they most likely warrant a stand-alone article. — and accordingly, it is evident from the available sources that there is no significant coverage received by this individual, as they are largely included as a participant in some government-related ceremony or ritual, or having being quoted on a matter relavant to such ritual. This, coupled with the fact that the sources themselves cannot be considered reliable in any meaningful sense (these are not government websites, but nominally private media outlets with strong links to ruling party politicians and senior government officials), given their notorious lack of independence and the generally low quality of reporting, the conditions set in WP:SOLDIER are decidedly not met; and (4) most importantly, WP:SOLDIER is neither official policy nor guideline for establishing notability on Wikipedia (it is merely an "essay"), in that it only states conditions under which notability may be presumed in case of certain individuals, however that is simply general guidance that cannot purport to supersede conditions provided under WP:BIO and WP:GNG. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 13:37, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Generally one-star generals (or even brigadiers when they aren't (force dependent) considered generals) are considered notable per WP:SOLDIER - however the assertion in The Phnom Penh Post is quite convincing.Icewhiz (talk) 13:45, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Quite. I have absolutely no idea where you get the idea that WP:SOLDIER only applies to four-star generals! It may only be an essay, but it is generally taken as the standard for military bios on Wikipedia. However, given what you say about the ludicrous number of generals in Cambodia, I'm going to change my opinion to neutral. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:20, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Per The Phnom Penh Post there are more than 2,000 generals in 125,000 strong Royal Cambodian Armed Forces. That's one general per 62 active duty soldiers (or one per 162 soldiers if we include the reserves). Thus a general in the RCAF is equivalent to a company commander (Captain - OF-2) in most other forces. I have no idea how we extrapolate a 3-star RCAF general (+2 from OF-2 to OF-4? lt. Col) - but it still seems out of SOLDIER(2)'s intended reach). In my WP:BEFOREing for this individual I was barely able to confirm the rank. They do not seem to pass WP:GNG, and regardless of the particularities of SOLDIER (which seem inapplicable given RCAF's general inflation) - SOLDIER is only a presumption of GNG.

- Delete The correct thing to do would be to redirect to Suzanne Corso. But that article doesn't exist, even though Corso has written multiple books based on her own colorful life history (Brooklyn Story, Suite Life) that have been reviewed in e.g. The New York Times and apparently are being adapted for film. In other words, this article documents one of the least notable things she has done. In guideline terms: this article's subject does not meet WP:NBOOK. Bakazaka (talk) 19:09, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: I'd be cautious of the film adaptation claims. I took a look for coverage and for the claims of having written screenplays, producing, and writing, there's really not much out there about her. Most of what I've seen about her have been tabloid type material that discuss her marriage and later divorce to a wealthy man who lost it all on Wall Street in 2008. (NY Post that was reprinted in News.com.au, Daily Mail) She has had some reviews from Publishers Weekly for her books ([22], [23]), but Publishers Weekly isn't a strong source to base an article on. Technically they're reliable sources but they're still fairly weak sourcing. There are some Kirkus reviews, but that site is pretty much considered to be reliable by many on Wikipedia. She's had a few interviews with Downtown Magazine NYC and Time Out, but interviews are seen as primary sources by many on Wikipedia. It's not something that I always agree with, but it's common enough that it wouldn't be really something to rely on either. I did find a short review in the NYT and a piece in Glamour, though.
- Looking into the producer and screenplay claims brought up very little. Her IMDb page is empty, which is surprising since most usually list something, especially if the video claims are notable, suggesting that her work has either been minor or non-notable. This lists her credits and the only claim of note is that she worked on the TV show Empire - but a search for her name and the show title doesn't bring up anything of note.
- So ultimately the only good sourcing I could find were two PW reviews, a short NYT review, and an article in Glamour. I hate to be skeptical, but this all just seems like she or a marketing person have puffed her up to the press, with minimal success. I don't know that she'd really justify an article unless there's more out there - I didn't do as thorough a search as I'd otherwise have done, to be honest. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 21:50, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Nothing about this AfD hinges on whether the adaptation gets made. But for the record, the public-facing IMDb page shows her as "known for" being the producer of "Brooklyn Story", which is "in development" so only IMDbPro members can see the details. The film adaptation is also mentioned in the USA Today piece on her, and one PW blurb mentions that Penny Marshall bought the rights. That said, I don't think either of us is going to write the Suzanne Corso article, so what are your thoughts on this particular AfD? Bakazaka (talk) 23:06, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

In this case that's the article about the convicted murderer. Was AfD necessary for this operation? No, but when all you have is a hammer, etc. Bakazaka (talk) 00:28, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

- Weak Keep - based on reviews in - chron,
houstonpresshoustonpress, NY Daily News, and Culturemap Houson. Note that the title is the press nickname of the killer. Suspect there may be more - hard to locate with all the movie crud and overabundance of hits (from DVD sales, movie review replication sites, etc.) - it seems it was rather poorly received. Icewhiz (talk) 11:34, 17 April 2019 (UTC)- Your second link is some sports story, the fourth link isn't a review but rather a clickbait blog post based on the trailer, and the other two are already cited in the article (I know, because I put those citations there). That said, I actually think the film is notable based on the sources already cited, but since the plot of the TV movie is the same as the story of the crime, then there's no added value in a separate article on the TV movie. It's good for a well-sourced paragraph in the article on Susan Wright, though. In other words, precisely the situation that WP:NOPAGE is intended to address. Bakazaka (talk) 21:03, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
- Fixed the second link - must have mis-clicked or scrolled down. A merge is a possible outcome here, I'm still weakly leaning towards keep here - I suspect there are more sources on the TV movie, and based on what I see this just barely scrapes over.Icewhiz (talk) 07:01, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

- Keep (as creator). The company is the parent for both Huck and Little White Lies and there is significant coverage for each of those (in addition to the start of the coverage I've added to the main article - Note I added alternate spellings for the company in the "find sources" template) and all three entities are used as references throughout the project.

- Delete as unambiguous WP:PROMO. The article is an extension of the company's promotional efforts. The WP:REFBOMB approach, citing passing mentions and even sources that do not mention the company at all, just illustrates how little actual coverage there is of this company. For those who prefer guidelines to policy, the company fails WP:CORPDEPTH. Bakazaka (talk) 18:41, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- WP:CORPDEPTH explicitly mentions "ongoing media coverage focusing on a product" as "[an example] of substantial coverage that would generally be sufficient to meet the requirement". Per that point, there was coverage of the book (product) TCOLondon created for Microsoft (and Nokia) by The Verge, CNET, and Telecom Tech News. These are not PR pieces (or at least I don't think they were). There was also coverage of the product they created for Google at Mashable (via CNN) and The Guardian; Facebook at TimeOut and MixMag.net; and Nike, Inc. at Fast Company and The-CMA.com. There are other examples in the article, but to say that this is entirely promotional is not a fair assessment of the page. I have no affiliation with the company what-so-ever. - PaulT+/C 04:28, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Also, the above is all in addition to the coverage (and awards) that their products Huck and Little White Lies both have. - PaulT+/C 04:30, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- "Ongoing" is not met with any of the coverage you've cited, so it's still a failure of WP:CORPDEPTH. Additionally, the CNET "coverage" is mostly a reprint of The Verge article, which itself is admittedly based almost entirely on information provided by the company. The Telecom Tech News piece has a passing mention of the company and two sentences on the book. The others are brief mentions of products that the company has produced. The Time Out source and Fast Company sources don't even mention the subject of this article, and the The CMA source only mentions the company in passing as the parent of Huck in its two short paragraphs. The company verifiably exists, and it has done work, but it doesn't meet WP:CORPDEPTH. Given that the coverage is almost entirely routine and/or based on company-provided information, it is WP:PROMO because it is an extension of the company's PR efforts. Whether or not you intended it that way, it's still a regurgitation of the company's story about itself. Bakazaka (talk) 04:45, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Their work is mentioned plenty often enough to count as "ongoing". Each project mentioned does get coverage (and there are more examples in the article). The Time Out (documentary for Facebook) and Fast Company(Nike's ad campaign) sources directly cover their work even if the company itself isn't explicitly mentioned. - PaulT+/C 05:09, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- The reason that WP:CORPDEPTH requires ongoing coverage of a product is because companies often place PR stories at product release time, so ongoing coverage of a product demonstrates continued interest beyond the initial PR burst. These sources show individual PR bursts for a few specific products. So, again, fails WP:NCORP. As for claiming that sources that don't even mention the company are significant coverage, well, I sincerely hope that you do not accept that for other articles. Bakazaka (talk) 05:46, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Regarding that last point, clearly I'm missing something. Company "L" makes product "D" for client "F". "L"'s product "D" has coverage mentioning "D" and the client "F", but company "L" is not explicitly mentioned because that would be counterproductive to company "L"'s aims for their product -- they are creating the product for "F" after all, not to promote themselves. In that case you are saying coverage about product "D" doesn't count toward "L"'s notability and that this coverage doesn't count even though there would be no coverage of anything if it weren't for "L" creating "D" in the first place, is that accurate? (Nevermind the additional fact that there is other coverage mentioning "L", "D", and "F" together in other places.) I don't see how coverage of "L"'s product "D" doesn't count toward "L"'s notability since it is clearly indepentently stated that "D" is "L"'s work.Let me step back and confirm some points of agreement/disagreement between us: The disputed point on notability is primarily about the lack of "significant" coverage (in your view), correct? Do you agree that there is widespread (even if it is not significant in your view) "coverage" from "reliable" "sources" that are "independent from the subject"? I think the breath of coverage from the multiple independent sources covers these other 4 points of the WP:GNG at least: The Guardian[24][25][26], The Drum[27][28][29][30], Oxford Mail[31], It's Nice That[32], New Internationalist[33], British Journal of Photography[34], Marketing Week[35], Digital Arts of IDG[36], Mashable[37]/CNN[38], The Verge[39]/CNET[40], and others you can see at the article.Regarding the continued interest bit, I see your point about the coverage being about each product individually and not about the company directly, but the fact that their work is continuously covered should be considered. If there weren't (continued interest in the company's products) then there wouldn't be coverage of the products in the first place, right?Finally, the fact that they run two notable, award-winning magazines (Huck and Little White Lies) doesn't seem to count for much... that coupled with the fact that you don't agree that the company passes WP:NCORP, what would you think about a redirect to Huck instead of outright deletion (as I mentioned in my initial response to this AfD if there wasn't enough support for keeping the article)? I still maintain that the amount of coverage about the company is enough, but clearly just because I think something doesn't mean that it is so (obviously). - PaulT+/C 15:26, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- If you're saying that the company lacks significant coverage, we agree on that point. And that's a reason to delete. I do not see the point of a redirect to articles which are themselves the spam products of (mostly) since-blocked SPAs promoting the company's work, including the none-too-subtly-named TCOLondon.

- Why do you insist on deleting and then redirecting, especially when at least one other editor has voted to keep/draftify the page, which suggests the page history could be helpful? Seems to me if you're acknowledging the redirect would be helpful, we should have just discussed possibly redirecting from the start... ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:44, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
- Again, just redirect/merge to LGBT culture in Portland, Oregon if deemed not notable. This is another unnecessary nomination. I've asked this editor to start talk page discussions and redirect articles before going straight to AfD. If the topic does not qualify for a standalone article, then the redirect would serve a purpose by sending readers to the LGBT culture article. ---Another Believer (Talk) 06:52, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
- There's nothing to talk about. This appears to be just one of the many you have sprayed and prayed in a batch. Graywalls (talk) 08:38, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
- Ignoring your "there's nothing to talk about" comment, please review Wikipedia:Redirect#Purposes_of_redirects, which says, redirects are appropriate for "Sub-topics or other topics which are described or listed within a wider article". Since Second Foundation is mentioned in the LGBT culture in Portland, Oregon article, at minimum redirecting should be preferred over deleting altogether. I've not yet completed a thorough review of sourcing to know if the article should actually be kept, but certainly the redirect would help readers. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:39, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
- See WP:FAILN's general endorsement of DELETION when the subject organization lacks sufficient notability in the present time. The use of redirect to mothball crummy articles about cookie cutter organizations for the possibility that it might become notable enough for someone to expand under your creatorship would appear to be against the intent of Wikipedia. For a while, I couldn't understand why you're so adamantly opposed to deletion and continue to tendentiously engage in circular argument and try to sway participants to "switch votes".

This AfD touches on exactly the same fundamental issues as another AfD involving another article you've created Graywalls (talk) 13:59, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
- Graywalls, Both of these articles should just be redirected. Redirects can be very helpful. I invite you to review Wikipedia:Redirect#Purposes_of_redirects. This way someone searching for information about the Oregon Bears or Second Foundation will be directed to the LGBT culture in Portland, Oregon article. You keep citing policies for why articles should be deleted, but you're using them as if the policies say the content must be removed altogether, even as passing mentions in other articles, and that's not how Wikipedia works. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:04, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

Keep or Draftify. This organization is mentioned at least five times in the archives of The Oregonian. It is likely to be notable.

Is a List of restaurants in Maine cool because there's a book on it and we're not made of paper? These are simple listings as a directory.

- So we should have directories of any and all non-notable businesses on Wikipedia? List of restaurants in New York City could certainly be expanded to many times its size to include anything demonstrated to have a real existence. Make a nice table with citations to Zagat and Yelp and TimeOut New York and we've dealt with eateries that are not individually notable. Reywas92Talk 07:58, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: The Milowent of 10 years ago on the prior AfD on this article was more reasonable than I remember. My conclusion then, as now, was that useful winery lists should generally be kept. Yes, we are not a corporate directory, so there's some discretion here in what we think is appropriate. If there's not enough content for a useful winery list article, I could easily see Maine wine being expanded with some text content that mentions some example wineries. This article as is doesn't get a lot of pageviews.--Milowent • hasspoken 13:25, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

The former is only true for one article (which currently does not have any references, and if the prod that is on there is retracted should go through the scrutiny of an AfD by itself), the rest in this list is not referenced. If a significant number of these wineries can be shown to have received independent attention then this list can stay.

As it stands, however, there's only one entry in the list with a Wikipedia page and it is a stub. The entire "Lists of wineries in the United States by political division" seems a little sketchy in general; most of the wineries in the articles have no Wikipedia pages.

No doubt that the company exists and has a long history.

- Keep, while the nom is right that sourcing needs to be improved, this is one of Germany's main philately brands. While not as dominant as Michel catalog, it is long-standing. There must be reviews of their products and mentions of the company in the dozens of small discontinued philately journals that the German market once sustained. —Kusma (t·c) 09:50, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
- @Kusma: I tend to agree, however the substantial primary sourcing remains a fundamental concern about the contents of the article. Product reviews will probably be difficult to distinguish from PR or advertising and mentions in other sources may be closely related to "business as usual". The article had been draftified and AfC recommended, however the article was moved back to article space in its current form. It is not suitable for main space as it stands. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 10:14, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
- Draftify. I feel like the brand is sufficiently well-known to be included on enwiki. By the way, there are German and Russian Wikipedia articles on the subject and although every wiki has its own inclusion criteria, the Germans are usually quite deletion-happy.

Rationale is the same as before – non-notable neologism, see WP:NOTDICT, WP:NEO and Use–mention distinction. Some AfD participants previously !voted to merge, so I proposed a merger in October 2018. Two editors have since commented to oppose it, and no one supported it. Today content about DINO was removed from the RINO article. All of this leads me to believe that a merge is inappropriate, especially since this article consists of only two sentences. wumbolo ^^^ 18:05, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

I tried to be a reasonable human being an A7 this unmitigated disaster, but nooo it was declined because “sufficient claims are present (though not sourced); there are sourced versions in other languages; the current article is not substantially identical to the one that was deleted in 2009”. Did you not read not sourced? This article has absolutely no sources. Even in the so-called translations, nothing of use. One “source” is a picture of her at a premiere yet when you go to the article she isn’t even mentioned. Another “source” is about her winning some citizen award, yet no mention of her actual career or work that she’s done. This is the bullshit I talk about. Trillfendi (talk) 20:40, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

- Comment WP:N is clear: "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article". Using the links in this very AfD nomination, it's trivial to find dozens of hits on the subject in O Globo, Marie Claire, Folha de SP, etc. They seem to cover her every move, e.g. just from the last year or so: [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47]. If anything the problem is too many sources to sort through, but some bio facts and career facts are quite easily verified, e.g. [48] [49]. Bakazaka (talk) 04:57, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
- Not even one sentence of career can be created out of any of those links, because none actually talk about what work she’s done when they’re too focused on describing what her abs look like. But they always make sure to note her distant cousin is a tennis player. Trillfendi (talk) 06:38, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
- Both of those statements are false. Bakazaka (talk) 06:53, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
- Let's see; this article is now all of 5 discombobulated sentences. The first sentence is about her "humble beginnings" in Santa Catarina, the source of which describes her physical features and how she took a bus to São Paulo. The next vague sentence's source only manages to detail her height, weight, hair color, and the state of her abs, and her distant relative yet could actually be said about her modeling career? The fourth sentence is about her relationship, and the fifth is that her distant cousin is a tennis player. The only actual career related, single sentence is about being a tv presenter which in the source thereof is sandwiched in the last sentence between relationship status and Carnival trip plans.

I'm on the fence about this one. On the one hand, I believe "porn groove" is a protologism and would fall under WP:NOTNEO. Even the article's single source doesn't mention the term. Moreover, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of reliable sources out there (at least not on the internet), in particular when searching for this specific term, but not even for pornography music in general. On the other hand, it does seem to me like the music in pornography should be notable, and perhaps this is instead a case of not getting the article's name right.

- Delete. Boyce LA is not large enough to confer an automatic presumption of notability on its mayors, but the article is not referenced well enough to get him over WP:NPOL #2. The fact that some local media coverage exists is not in and of itself a free notability pass for a mayor — every mayor of everywhere can always show some local coverage in the local media, so the notability test for smalltown mayors requires evidence of much wider coverage than just the expected local stuff. Five of the ten "references" here are primary sources (raw tables of election results) or blogs, which are not support for notability at all — and the five that are media coverage are all purely local media coverage of his death itself, rather than substantive career coverage of his accomplishments in office, so they aren't clinching anything either. A mayor is not automatically notable enough for an encyclopedia article just because the local newspaper reported his death. Bearcat (talk) 17:41, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Patrick seems to be more than just a local politician. Jet magazine reported that he was a multi-time officer with the National Conference of Black Mayors. The Town Talk wrote of Patrick "Julius Patrick Elementary: Julius Patrick was once principal of the Alexandria elementary school that bears his name today as well as North Bayou Rapides. He served the community in capacities other than as an educator, including when he became the first black mayor of Boyce. Patrick also served as president and vice president of the National Conference of Black Mayors for Louisiana, and chairman of the International Committee for the Transportation of Technology to Third World Countries. He met with presidents George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton to advise them on policies affecting small cities and schools." [66]--TM 18:51, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- A smalltown mayor isn't automatically notable enough for Wikipedia just because the school board named a school after him — at least half of everybody who's ever been mayor of anywhere would be exempted from having to clear our notability standard for mayors if "something in the city got named after him" were an automatic notability freebie in and of itself. And everything else in that description still only counts as notability claims if he can show that he got media coverage, expanding beyond just the purely local, for it — one blurb in a local newspaper listicle about all the namesakes of all the area schools is not enough coverage all by itself to turn those into inclusion-clinching notability claims.

- Strong keep I don't know how an article can simultaneously have a BLP PROD and AfD applied to it. I have removed the PROD, as I have added references. I don't think a very thorough WP:BEFORE can have been done - two of the sources I have added are freely available on Google Books. The third is an obituary in The Times. Apart from having an OBE and therefore meeting WP:ANYBIO, he also meets WP:NMUSIC #6, having been organist and conductor of "two or more independently notable ensembles", Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford and the Oxford Bach Choir. There are probably other criteria of WP:NMUSIC that he also meets - I have not yet searched journals and newspapers for reviews, etc. RebeccaGreen (talk) 15:38, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

- Since RebeccaGreen already added that source to the article, I'd have to say yes, that's a good source. Google and Google News have a strong bias toward online sources posted in recent years. For someone who died in 1991, searching other sources is more useful. I recognize that the minimum threshold in the WP:BEFORE guidelines does not always match up with the best way to find sources. Unfortunately, the result of this mismatch is that it is much easier to nominate than to source, the burden for sourcing falls disproportionately on a small subset of editors, and (in my opinion) the likelihood of burnout increases among some of our most capable colleagues. Bakazaka (talk) 00:45, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
- Tyw7, as Bakazaka says, Google News will rarely show results for anyone who died in 1991 (unless they had been in the news in the last few years). Google Books is more likely to show results for someone who has been dead for some time, and who is likely to have been written about. There are other Sydney Watsons, but this one, according to the article, was an organist, so I searched for "Sydney Watson" organist, which brought results about the right Sydney Watson towards the top of the list. WP:BEFORE suggests "The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects." From what you say, it seems that you did not search Google Books or Google Scholar, both of which are more likely to - and do - give results for someone who was active over 40 years ago.

Fails WP:NHOCKEY by playing less than 200 games in the DEL. Article was mostly blanked in 2016 and previously had references regarding a criminal record and sparring with Mike Tyson but that, I'm certain, is a different Chris Hahn.

- Delete. This is a completely unreferenced article about a person who plays in a hockey league that does not constitute an automatic WP:NHOCKEY pass — DEL is in the list of leagues where a person can get in the door if there's evidence of distinctions, but not in the list of leagues that guarantee an article the moment the person has skated onto the ice. Going back into the article history, there's never been any evidence of GNG-worthy reliable sourcing, either: all there's ever been for this Chris Hahn is college hockey statistics databases, and the news coverage that got added and then removed in 2016 was indeed for a different person who merely happened to have the same combination of first and last names. (Hockey player Chris Hahn, born in 1985; criminal Christopher Hahn, 45 years old in 2015. Admittedly my brain isn't so good at math sometimes, but two seconds with a calculator will tell you those facts don't suggest the same person.) And while some of the article's prior college-athlete content got blanked at the same time as the wrong-person criminal crap, none of it actually suggested a stronger basis for inclusion, or cited any notability-supporting sources, either — so this can't be fixed just by reverting back to an older version. Bearcat (talk) 14:51, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
KeepDelete. He isn't an ice hockey player, but he is a boxer. This article is completely unreferenced, but according to this CBC article Chris Hahn was a local sakastoon boxer who has also boxed Evander Holyfield, Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis. Each of those boxers are notable, so boxing with them is a big deal. Clovermoss (talk) 16:56, 14 April 2019 (UTC) It's possible that there's an ice hockey Hahn, but I've never heard of him (there doesn't seem to be any online mentions of him, either) and these two people are both from the same general area. Rewriting the article to include information that is verifiable and from reliable sources about the boxer seems like the better option to me. Clovermoss (talk) 17:00, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Firstly, this article isn't wrong — it's just about a different person with the same name, which is not the same thing as being wrong. The ice hockey player verifiably does exist, he just isn't notable for existing. At any rate, there's no evidence that the boxer clears our notability standards for boxers either. If a boxer doesn't have any claim to passing WP:NBOX, then he doesn't magically clear WP:GNG just because a couple of pieces of purely local media coverage exist about him in his hometown media: a person has to compete in national or international boxing competitions to clear NBOX, not just fight a more famous person in a purely local exhibition match of no national or international significance. Bearcat (talk) 17:25, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- I'm not saying the article is wrong for covering the ice hockey player, although I wasn't exactly the best at communicating that. What I was trying to say is that even if there isn't a ice hockey Chris Hahn that's notable, there's a boxing Chris Hahn that is. But CBC is the only source I've found that covers it and that isn't enough. I looked at other sources that covered him and there's a lack of them. I was hoping that one paragraph in this university news might have led me to something, but it hasn't. In addition, taking a look at WP:NBOX, you're right, he isn't notable. Since this article is about the hockey player and not the boxer and neither are notable anyways, I'm going to change my keep to delete. Clovermoss (talk) 18:17, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

- Played Division-III for RPI (Liberty League) - generally div-III NCAA is non-notable. Now coaches women's soccer in UAlbany. Interestingly, from 2007 he was assistant coach at RPI (no, Liberty league awards are not significant) - which means he was a part time footballer for the Hammerheads (typical situation for USL D2) - and thus yet another example of the semi-pro status of many of the players there.Icewhiz (talk) 15:41, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

Many of his relatives are notable--and are in fact major historical figures-- but I see no evidence he is. . The military career seems undistinguished, and according to the source given, that the fort is named after him rather than others of his family is only conjectural. (Note that the similarity of names in his family makes searching rather difficult) DGG ( talk ) 00:27, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect to Mason family. Does not satisfy military notability or general notability. An exception to my usual rule that documented historical figures from the nineteenth or earlier century are usually notable. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:05, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

- Redirect Per Robert. Thanks,L3X1 ◊distænt write◊
- Redirect. Concur - not much is available here. His brief service record is available - [68] as is dying in 1846 - [69]. Fort Mason is possibly named for him - [70][71]. But that's about it - the article is built around this by adding additional material on the events he played a part in. Icewhiz (talk) 13:55, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
