Anee Icha

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

This actress and "personality" does not meet notability criteria for WP:NACTOR, WP:GNG nor WP:BASIC. The article sourcing is of poor quality: unreliable (BellaNaija),;a photo caption that mentions her name; non-indepth coverage, or doesn't mention her at all. A WP:BEFORE search reveals social media; no SIGCOV. It's possible that in a few years she may be notable per WP standards, but at this time it's WP:TOOSOON. Bringing it here for the community to weigh in on. Netherzone (talk) 23:16, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There are SO many articles similar to this created by the same user recently. ~Styyx^Talk? 23:30, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to take it to ANI, they've had more than enough chances to abide by our notability and BLP policies. PRAXIDICAE🌈 23:42, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Content citing Bella Naija have been removed. There are still about 9 other references from punch, nation and vanguard ( all newspapers).the article is notable because Anne Icha has starred in many films and one of the popular one is Namaste Wahala, a bolly and Nollywood movie.

Aside that She is one of the female celebrities that held meeting at Lagos on ways to solve problem affect women in the movie industry which is the june edition of the Inkblot Women in Film (IWIF) lunch. (All well sourced).Tesleemah (talk) 07:24, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tesleemah, all four sources are simply name-checks with no editorial content. Simple mentions of her name are considered trivial, and do not count as Significant Coverage. This is how our guidelines describe significant coverage: "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material. The book-length history of IBM by Robert Sobel is plainly non-trivial coverage of IBM. Martin Walker's statement, in a newspaper article about Bill Clinton,[2] that "In high school, he was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice" is plainly a trivial mention of that band. Do you see how that is very different than the sources in the article? Simply being in a film does not make a person automatically notable, it is what actors/actresses do - it's run of the mill. We need substantial, in-depth independent coverage of a person to meet GNG or NACTOR. Netherzone (talk) 19:58, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. This is a challenging one with a good basis on which to presume sourcing, but language, sourcing access issue being a major challenge. Given the presumption and the actual one identified makes this a keep even if sufficient sourcing hasn't yet been added. Star Mississippi 14:13, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. per WP:NACTOR. The subject appeared in at least 3 notable films, indicating a likely but lost press coverage. Insight 3 (talk) 06:50, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Interesting: @Insight 3, you mention likely but lost coverage – what does that mean for us? If sufficient sources existed, but are gone beyond hope of rediscovering, how would that be interpreted? I mean, I am tempted to follow your assessment that he is notable, but am unsure how to "prove" it since I can't find sources either. --LordPeterII (talk) 20:16, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I mean, if the subject worked in over 600 films with at least 3 of them notable (and there might be more), then most probably he would have been mentioned in the local film magazines and newspapers from 1980s and 1990s. But unfortunately Urdu or Punjabi film sources have not been digitally preserved like English, hence we don't see them online. Insight 3 (talk) 04:30, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting to consider the likelihood that while this actor might have been in some notable films, reliable sources do not exist that can verify this fact.

Keep. Apart from one newspaper mention in the context of prohibition in 1926 here (joke), there are several other sources available. I'm unsure about this one and that one, but these seem fine: DJ Mag, Evening Standard, another Evening Standard, Guardian & Guardian again. Sources currently in the article are bad, I agree, but with these new ones I believe we have WP:SIGCOV.

Comment: This station does appear to be on a DAB broadcast multiplex rather than online-only, but I would agree that it needs to be redirected to Kiss Network as suggested, I don't think it has enough of its own original content or programming to justify its own article. The article itself states that programming is "non stop dance music" and it has "no programming", making it a music stream rather than a radio broadcaster.

Almost no information is provided about this local newspaper and, the little there is, is hopelessly outdated. It is best redirected to its parent, Yedioth Ahronoth. These are basically the local pages of Yediot Ahronot (modern spelling) for Tel Aviv. Yediot's article is far from development to the degree that an article for each newspaper section can be justified. gidonb (talk) 19:13, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Freedom from Fear (organization)

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

Organization appears to be a local nonprofit similar in scope and activities to a local branch of Mental Health America or National Alliance on Mental Illness. Activities include providing gift bags to local psychiatric patients, promoting events of national advocacy organizations, and hosting support groups.[1] Their website is mostly an advertisement for an affiliated for-profit psychiatric services provider company.

Delete. Possibly A7 but I suppose that's a bit moot given it's already been 7 days. Article is entirely unencyclopedic and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to not be a company profile (I expect the SPA author likely has some form of COI), and I could not find sources that might be able to support such a rewrite.

The Asian Tribune

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

Non notable online newspaper. It says it was founded in 2002 as a printed broadsheet newspaper, then print edition was discontinued in 2011 and relaunched in 2018 but i was unable to verify this. I googled in Bangla and English but found nothing. There is zero third party source about this.

Looks like the page contain information taken from Asian Tribune, a Thai/Sri Lankan/Swedish e-newspaper that used to appear in print (e.g. founded in 2002 ... discontinued in 2011 etc)

It says it was relaunched in 2018 but domain data says it was registered on 2021-11-12 (around same time this article was created). Looks like a sneaky way to promote a non notable online news portal.

This article was created in 2006 and has never had references. A discussion on the WikiProject Classical music page concluded that much of the information is dubious.

Neutral – one of the references I found in a Belgian academic site calls him "legendary", which is impressive, but otherwise I can't find anything to suggest that he's notable so far as the English Wikipedia is concerned. Tim riley talk 21:54, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
My great-uncle on my mother"s side was a well-known viola-player, not a violin-player, he formed a string quartet with my grandfather and two other brothers playing string instruments before WW2.

Because he won the Prix de Rome alto he obtained a scholarship to study in London with one of the best viola players of that era after which he was appointed at a very young age to become one of the first professors at the Royal Antwerp Conservatory. The first higher education establishment in Flanders to employ Dutch as the language of instruction.

There used to be a newspaper clipping in the familly mentioning the name of his London teacher but this was lost so I can't be more informative about that for the time being.

He was noted because several Flemish composers graduated in his class, amonst whom Jef Maes, considered to be one of the most important post-war Flemish composers.

For this reason, his class was referred to as the 'composers class'

All this being well-documented by the Antwerp Conservatory.

Apart from his teaching at the Antwerp Conservatory, he was the main viola-player at the Orchestra of the Royal Zoological Society of Antwerp, which existed from the second half of the 19th century to the 1960s and was well-regarded for its performances of modern, contemporary music hence the attendance of several well-known composers.

The archives of this orchestra, no longer in possesion of the Antwerp Zoological Society are now kept in the Antwerp city archives and can be consulted.

His popularity between the wars with a wider audience in Antwerp can be attributed to the matinee concerts he gave in the open air music stand of the Antwerp Zoo. Napoleon Distelmans (talk) 02:22, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Tony Bennett discography. Back in the late '60s it seems like Tony went through a slump and many of his albums during that period were largely ignored by the media. Even via Google Books I can only find brief mentions of this album's existence, mostly in Tony biographies and a few compendiums of that era's jazz albums. Interestingly, modern jazzbos have complained about this exact same problem here: [3]. For us, the answer is to redirect.

Agree that in its present form the dab can't stay.

Comments He doesn't appear to have won a major title that would show notability and his professional record is underwhelming. At first glance there appears to be a lot of sources, but I've been going through them and am having trouble seeing what meets the WP:GNG criteria. There's fight announcements, results reporting, database entries, and interviews--none of which meet WP:GNG. Even some of the national news coverage, much of which consists mainly of results and interviews, is somewhat suspect in terms of independence. When I see things like "our fighter", I have to question that I'm getting unbiased information. I haven't gotten through every source, but so far it's not encouraging. It would be nice if those claiming WP:GNG would pick their three best examples so that the rest of us don't have to spend time slogging through a lot of sources that don't meet that standard. Also, I'd like to say that WP notability is not dependent on the author (who may or may not be have been paid or written promotionally). He only appears to have about 50 edits in his contribution list, so he may just be inexperienced (and I'd hate to discourage a new contributor). Papaursa (talk) 02:07, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

He has won no significant titles and has never been ranked in the world top 10 so he fails to meet either of the notability criteria mentioned by the SPA above. Even with the Kyokushin World Tournament Open having been split into at least 4 or 5 competing factions (each with their own championship), I don't see any evidence of him being the world champion in any of them.

Delete Nobody has provided compelling evidence that WP:GNG is met. In fact, the more I waded through the sources, the worse it got. I found claims that were linked to references that had nothing to do with the claim. Many, if not most of his titles, were in youth divisions. His BBJ success was at the blue belt level, which is the next to lowest level and doesn't come close to meeting the WP:MANOTE standard of adult black belt success. I also found the article's tone very promotional and lacking a neutral point of view, although those alone are not grounds for deletion. I am willing to change my vote, should additional information come forth, but for now I am unconvinced of his WP notability. Papaursa (talk) 23:40, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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

Article about a short film, not properly referenced as passing WP:NFO. The only notability claim on offer here is that it won a student film award, which would be fine if the film were properly sourced as having the media coverage to pass WP:GNG, but the only reference here is the award's own self-published press release. As always, "film notable because award" does not just automatically accept every single film award that exists -- it requires awards on the level of the Oscars, the AACTAs, the BAFTAs, the CSAs or an elite tier of internationally prominent film festivals which get media coverage, and does not extend notability freebies based on awards that have to be metareferenced to themselves because media coverage is lacking.
As I don't have access to any databases in which I could retrieve 20-year-old Australian media coverage, I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with better access to such resources can find the media coverage needed to salvage this -- but a student film award is not "inherently" notable enough to get a film into Wikipedia if a primary source press release is the only source it has.

Metaplot

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

Unreferenced WP:OR. Intrestingly, the definition ended up being cited (and attributed to Wikipedia) in a RS (a book published by McFarland, p.118, footnote confirming the source is Wikipedia is on p.123]. Without the attribution this definition ("overarching storyline") also appears in this academic paper. The term does appear in few more (academic, reliable) sources but I can't find anything that meets WP:SIGCOV. Aside of the interesting case of almost WP:CITOGENESIS, I wonder if anyone can rescue this, or should be just delete or redirect this? (redirect where? Maybe Setting (narrative) or even better, perhaps, Campaign setting?)

Merge to Metanarrative, perhaps? I think the article is poorly thought out, the list incomplete, and I'm not sure it's worth saving. It includes Rifts (role-playing game) which seems to me the quintessential "Let's throw all this stuff we wrote together and call it a multiverse" as opposed to previous games from the same developer such as The Mechanoid Invasion. Classic entries like The Morrow Project are missing, and it doesn't at all engage with literature-driven games like Call of Cthulhu (role-playing game). Could it be salvaged? On first read, my inclination that it does such a bad job of what it sets out to do that it shouldn't be. Jclemens (talk) 16:57, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Jclemens I don't think metanarrative is a similar concept. Or they are just both badly written, perhaps (metanarrative has sources but it is also a postmodernistic mambo jumbo). _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 20:08, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure if this belongs on Wikipedia as it is probably a WP:DICDEF but [12] uses the term and formally defines it as does [13]. [14] uses it, and as noted by Piotrus, cites this article. It is also used as "meta-plot" in sources like [15] and [16] which define it in a similar way but for different types of fiction. I'm leaning toward keeping and expanding from a WP:N viewpoint. I'm less sure about the DICDEF issue. I do think the world is probably (very slightly) better off with this article given it has been cited by external sources. But... Hobit (talk) 18:51, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Hobit ... citogenesis. Although the topic of Wikipedia creating knowledge deserves some proper academic attention. Succesfull citogenesis can still create notable entities (ex an OR essay in Wikipedia that creates a new, notable concept that becomes notable). The thing is, I an not seeing sufficient sourcing to suggest that the concept of metaplot is notable, with or without considering any citogenesis, hence my recommendation to redirect this for now. In the RPG context, what's the difference between metaplot and campaign setting? _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:26, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'd say a metaplot is likely an aspect of a campaign setting; if anything, that may be a good place to merge or at least redirect. BOZ (talk) 11:04, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Piotrus: The campaign setting is the geography, characters, etc. Often this is presented as a snapshot at one specific point in setting time. The metaplot is if there is an overarching development in setting time (well, a plot). Some settings have that, some don't. So in my view you can't have a metaplot without a setting, but you can have a setting without a metaplot. Daranios (talk) 15:30, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

<ec>Quite a bit IMO. A setting is a place. A metaplot is a plot running through multiple stories ("adventures" in this context). I'd argue that many of the pathfinder adventure paths are in a setting and that often each book has a plot, but the whole adventure path has something of a metaplot. And then things, like the conflict between the gods, that sometimes resolve just a bit in different adventure paths are somewhere between campaign setting and metaplot. I'm also seeing that "meta-plot" predates the use of metaplot in RPGs and has a very similar meaning. So it's not just citogenesis (which is a cool word btw). Hobit (talk) 15:32, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Hobit @Daranios I am still having trouble grasphing this concept; isn't it simply an "idea that connects multiple books"? As such, it likely was invented as soon as some presumbly ancient artist decided to make a sequel, prequel, or simply split his work into two parts due to size... _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 16:22, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It could be. But some books, like Lord of the Rings, really is one story in multiple books. Other things, like say the Sherlock Homes stories have what I'd say is metaplot--Watson getting married and how that all worked out for example. Those examples are most certainly OR, but I think we have enough sources to at least describe the idea. Hobit (talk) 16:57, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I was actually thinking of Lord of the Rings myself, but that would only be a good example if the stories in each book were more disconnected from each other rather than just being pieces of one huge story. Many book series that feature a single protagonist or group of characters could be seen as having something like a metaplot, if plot elements from previous books continue to be relevant in later books. BOZ (talk) 17:34, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Taking Silmarilion into account, I think Middle-Earth is extremly metapolotish. This is really ORish, but hmmm, take Bank's The Culture (or Pratchett's Discworld). Each book is independet but set in the same universe. Some characters occasionally overlap. There is connecting narrative. What about metaplot? It's all subjective... point is, there is something here, but it doesn't appear sufficiently research to make a good Wikipedia article at the moment (certainly not an RPG-focused one, since we are already discussing non-RPG works). _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 19:09, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or keep. Most of what is in the article now can be referenced to secondary sources. Contrary to the nomination, this source does not only have half a sentence of definition (p. 12), but also a bit of commentary with the example of Shadowrun on p. 43. Taking together the sources, this article could be extended just beyond a stub, beyond the size suggested for merge reason "Short text", and beyond a dictionary definition. If no more sources are presented, it would remain short, so I have no objections against a merge to Campaign setting, which in my view is by far the best target. As for WP:CITOGENESIS, well, we don't know if the definition appeared before Wikipedia somewhere, but the term is used now by secondary source both with and without reference to Wikipedia, so it should appear in some form in our encyclopedia. For what it's worth, the primary source Exalted Storyteller's Companion, p. 6, has used the term in 2001, before the existence of our article, in our sense here. (And other sources have used it in a different sense...). Daranios (talk) 15:30, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I haven't been able to find any significant coverage beyond what's already been raised in the above discussion. The sources that have been raised aren't cumulatively sufficient to indicate notability, and don't provide a basis to write an article that goes beyond a dictionary definition. McAbee 2014 has to be set aside due to the citogenesis issue. Carraro 2022 and Bowman 2010 are passing mentions. Faricelli 2015 is self-published (Lulu.com). Byrnes 2008 uses the same word to refer to an entirely different concept. Daranios is right that White et al. 2018 comes the closest to constituting the sort of significant coverage we require, but we'd need at least one other source dicussing the subject in at least that level of depth for WP:GNG to be met. A merge or redirect could be viable, but I'm not sure merging to campaign setting is a good idea given the very poor state that article's in, and metanarrative is definitely a non-starter (I'm mildly surprised we don't have some sort of glossary of role-playing games where this could go). – Arms & Hearts (talk) 16:27, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Citogenesis, as far as I know, isn't a good reason to not use a source here IMO. Even if the original source was Wikipedia for the word (which it is not), that doesn't invalidate the source. Hobit (talk) 20:03, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - There are lots of good reasons to avoid citing sources that cite Wikipedia. Aside from the significant risk of questionable material (unsourced facts at best, made-up nonsense at worst) being reproduced, the fact the author and editor thought it wise to cite Wikipedia in published work should put the rigour of that author's work in question. These problems exist in relation to any source that cites Wikipedia; they're significantly exacerbated when the source cites the Wikipedia article it's then being cited in, and are exacerbated further stll when the article they're citing (as in this case, which cites this version) is or was itself entirely unsourced. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 12:38, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That set the context for the bands in If You Aren't Dead, who thought they could have big recording success -- and didn't get it. As legendary as they were in Northeast Ohio, they were at best cult figures in other parts of the world. ... The documentary is told partly by Hoffman's narration, vintage photos, ancient video (of sometimes awful quality) and the band members. ...

Beacon Journal columnist David Giffels also talks about the city’s music scene. The film includes never-released audio recordings, newspaper articles and other memorabilia."
There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow If You're Not Dead, Play! to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

The hourlong program looks at Akron's music scene during the 1970s and the punk and art-rock bands that contributed to the "Akron sound." It includes interviews with members of Devo and former Plain Dealer rock critic Jane Scott. "It's Everything" was written and directed by Phil Hoffman, adjunct professor of communication at the University of Akron. Akron students assisted in the production."

Delete. Lack of WP:SIGCOV. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 16:56, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – I found a couple of foreign-language sources, however I'm not 100% certain if they'd be sufficient to pass WP:GNG or move beyond WP:ROUTINE. This source discusses him returning to his parent club, however the article is admittedly rather brief and could be considered routine. This source seems promising but is paywalled beyond the first paragraph, which seems to discuss Svit and his family (including father Simon who played internationally for Slovenia). I'll add these and several others I've found to the article to see if they serve to shift the article towards notability, but I'm not particularly experienced with AfD discussions or what passes GNG and what doesn't, so I'll leave this as a comment. User:SmackJam (talk) 19:09, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first source is a yellow sports website and its just a short report that he returend from loan, absolutely no WP:SIGCOV there. The second pay-walled article is most likely not about him, but its a review of all 5 weekly games in the league according to the first sentence – would need someone to unlock the article, we cannot just assume. If suddenly the players would meet WP:GNG because they would get an aritlces like "player X was loaned to team Y", and "the player played a game and scored a goal in the 10th minute", then literally every single player out there could have an article as you would find this for every player in the top league.

Thanks for the feedback. SmackJam (talk) 19:56, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Its nice that you now added several sources and expanded the article, but all those sources are still WP:ROUTINE reports like him being loaned out, extending the contract, match reports, interview at club's website (WP:PRIMARY) etc. Snowflake91 (talk) 20:32, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In doing WP:BEFORE could not find much to help this person pass WP:GNG. I found passing mentions of him in Guyana Chronicle and Guyana Journal, but neither said much beyond "He played for Guyana". The Guyana Journal does note him as an early Indo-Guyanese cricket player, but having played for only one game and with no other sources providing notability beyond that, I don't think he passes WP:GNG.

Keep, but move to Ungrateful (disambiguation), and retarget the current title to Gratitude. I have just added references for the terms used to describe absence of gratitude to the lede. Obviously the dab should be kept; there are four things by that name that readers might want to look up in an encyclopedia, two with articles, and two mentioned in articles for which no one has proposed either that the article or the mention does not belong in Wikipedia. BD2412 T 02:53, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I can see where that's coming from, but I don't think redirecting to Gratitude would be helpful. The term "ungrateful" is an adjective describing something or someone characterised by the absence of what is being described in that article, and that's several degrees of separation between the search term and the article. I don't think it's very likely to be used by readers who are searching for content about gratitude.

Masha-ye Ashayiri Shomareh-ye Do

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

And also:

Complete list of 34 other Carlossuarez46 articles about "villages" with "Masha-ye" in the name

*Masha-ye Hojjatabad

"Masha-ye" (مشاع) appears (based on machine translation) to mean "community of". It is therefore used in the Iranian census to identify a location where the census has counted people for which they have no handy name. For example the title of this article translates as "Nomadic communities number 2" - apparently somewhere the census-takers counted nomads, who by definition do not live in a legally-recognised place. This is therefore a WP:GEOLAND#1 fail, as well as being a WP:GNG fail due to the lack of significant coverage in reliable sources.

Other items on this list appear to be just neighbourhoods within larger communities (e.g., the numbered communities within the "Rural District" - really a village - of Jahadabad such as "Masha-ye 33 Jahadabad"). Some are just places referred to by their location (e.g., "Masha-ye 7 Posht Kuh Do Sari" which means something like "Community number 7 behind Dostari mountain"). These are not in any sense real places, but just creations of the Iranian census, and therefore fail WP:GEOLAND#1. They are all sourced only to the Iranian census and therefore WP:GNG fails.

Bundling is justified per WP:BUNDLE as these are spam/hoax articles created by the same author according to the same template.

Now that I've got AWB approval I plan to template all the articles in the list, but it may take me a day or two to do it so please have patience.

PS- you might think that 35 articles is a lot, but please remember that Carlossuarez46 was creating these articles at a rate of up to 100 or more per day. Deletion has to keep pace with mass-creation, otherwise we are allowing mass-creators to establish a fait accompli. Similarly WP:BEFORE as to be proportionate to the original work that was done to confirm the notability of the article that was created, which in this case was zero, otherwise again we are simply permitting a fait-accompli.

Mohammadabad (32°40′ N 51°57′ E), Qahab-e Jonubi

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

Fails WP:GEOLAND#1 and WP:GNG. And also:

Mohammadabad (32°40′ N 51°47′ E), Qahab-e Jonubi

Both of these "villages" (really, abadi, which are reference points used in the Iranian census, and can be unpopulated, or simply factories/farms/shops/pumps used as reference points) have exactly the same name and are therefore indistinguishable. The co-ordinates in one case point to an empty field near a town called Khatunabad, and in the other point to a village that appears to have the real name of Sosart. The only sources are the Iranian census (which does not confer legal recognition) and GEOnet Names Server (which is unreliable for whether a place is or was ever populated and contains many errors). Incidentally it is not clear at all where the co-ordinates used in these articles comes from.
These articles really do demonstrate that all of Carlossuarez46's Iranian Abadi articles sourced only to the Iranian census and/or GEOnet Names Server or similar sources, and not improved since creation by anyone else, should be deleted. Even where the name indicates that there may be a village (although it is equally possible that these are neighbourhoods within larger settlements, or groupings of more than one settlement), it is then not possible to confirm whether or not the actual location does exist making them a WP:V fail. It's beyond time just to call WP:TNT on this whole mess. Particularly where an editor has resorted to using co-ordinates to distinguish one settlement from another when naming the article and those co-ordinates turn out to be wrong (and a WP:CRITERIA/WP:COMMONNAME fail to boot) this indicates definite problems.

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Geography and Iran. FOARP (talk) 09:43, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The coordinates are probably from GEOnet Names Server as they are in GeoNames: https://www.geonames.org/418622/mohammadabad.html and https://www.geonames.org/418623/mohammadabad.html. If they are correct the second is now in the city of Isfahan. Persian Wikipedia uses "(Qahab-e Jonubi, east)" and "(Qahab-e Jonubi, west)" for disambiguation. Peter James (talk) 14:13, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for responding here Peter. The issue here is that GeoNames is a wiki-like source and thus not reliable, and even if it were reliable the co-ordinates point to locations that are not obviously associated with any place called Mohammadabad (and so are unreliable in their own terms). Similarly even if there are listings on GEOnet Names Server this is an unreliable source (in this case even for the co-ordinates which are clearly wrong). Renaming as on FA Wiki makes no sense unless there is sourcing to substantiate the existence of these places as legally-recognised populated places, which FA Wiki does not help with because it is cited to English Wikipedia (again showing the harm that these negligently-created articles causes by propagating fake information on the internet and citogenesis). FOARP (talk) 16:29, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:V, since we don't have a reliable source saying the place exists. The Iranian census and the GEOnet Names Server don't count. The Persian Wikipedia entry only cites the Iranian census as well. Hut 8.5 20:03, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Previous nominations at: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jeff_Lindsay and Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jeff_Lindsay_(second_nomination)

DELETE - The article's subject does not meet the requirements for notability. Per WP:BASIC, "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." The sources for this article are

1. Fairmormon.org, a posting by Lindsay himself on (not independent)

2. Mormanity, Lindsay's own blog (not independent)

3. Nauvoo Times. A blog showing that he was a contributor, adding nothing biographical. (not independent)

4. Mormoninterpreter.com, a publication on which Lindsay is on the board (not independent)

5. Jefflindsay.com, another blog owned by Lindsay. (not independent)

6. Mormoninterpreter.com, this time with a link to a blog post by Lindsay. (not independent)

7. Fairmormon.org, another blog posting written by Lindsay (not independent)

8. newsroom.lds.org, a link to a blogpost by Lindsay (not independent)

9. Mormoninterpreter.com page listing board members, demonstrating that Lindsay is not independent from the source.

10. exmormon.org anonymous posting criticizing Lindsay. Not reliable

11. A book by Richard Abanes. Book might be a good source on an established article, but coverage within this book is not significant enough to establish notability.

There are exactly zero sources that establish notability. This article was nominated for deletion once, with the recommendation to DELETE. It was nominated a second time many years ago and somehow the decision was to keep. This was in large part due to the number of patents he had obtained.

North Carolina Cabinet and Council of State

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

This is a 17-year-old unreferenced orphan stub and an apparent failed attempt at a DAB page. The North Carolina Cabinet and North Carolina Council of State are two separate executive institutions of state government with their own respective articles. Their duties and business generally do not intersect with one another, and their broad shared role in simply both providing executive leadership to the state (in different areas) is already covered at Government of North Carolina#Executive branch. Having a joint article on them is purely redundant. What confusion might exist in distinguishing between the two bodies (which sometimes happens) is already resolved by disambiguation "not to be confused with" notes at the top of the two articles for the respective institutions. Seeing as this is an orphan and the unlikelihood that someone would be looking for a joint article on this when the subjects are fleshed out in two other places already means there is no practical redirect or merge target.

Redirect to Fiona McIntosh#Valisar per the lack of significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:
A book is presumed notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:
1. The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.
I found one source about the subject:
1. Brazulaitis, Stefen (September 2010). "The King's Wrath: Valisar Book Three [Book Review]". Bookseller + Publisher Magazine. Vol. 90, no. 2. p. 32. ISSN 1833-5403. Archived from the original on 2022-08-14. Retrieved 2022-08-14.

The result was redirect to Fiona McIntosh#Valisar with the option to merge any viable sourced content. I note some suggestions that the redirect target instead be the first book in the trilogy; I'm seeing numerically stronger support for the target I have chosen, but if there is disagreement, a different discussion may be needed, as consensus isn't clear as to the target.

Tyrant's Blood

Second book in a trilogy, all appear to fail WP:GNG/WP:NBOOK. (I don't know how to nominate three articles in one AfD, so please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Royal Exile and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/King's Wrath for other discussions. This article has an unreferenced reception section that seems to be based on the book's publisher blurb. I can't find any reliable coverage of it otherwise. Courtesy ping User:Pburka who removed prod for this, with a comment: "Likely notable book. Translated into Dutch and French; nominated for 2010 Hemming and Gemmel awards (see isfdb.org). But we should consider merging all three books into one article.". I don't think translations are relevant to establishing notability (I think there was a Polish one too, shrug).

Redirect to Fiona McIntosh#Valisar per the lack of significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:
A book is presumed notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:
1. The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.
I found one source about the subject:
1. Woodhead, Cameron (2009-09-19). "Fiction". The Age. Archived from the original on 2022-08-14. Retrieved 2022-08-14.
  The review notes: "Tyrant's Blood is the second in her Valisar trilogy. In the first book, Royal Exile, ... The sequel takes place a decade later. The Empire flourishes under Loethar's dominion, but the Valisar heir, Leo, quietly gathers power in an effort to unseat the tyrant and reclaim the family throne. McIntosh is an imaginative world-builder, writing fantasy that brims with complex characters, carefully laid intrigues and hair-raising violence. This series may be her best yet."
There is insufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Tyrant's Blood to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Weak Keep. Borderline. The first ref doesn't look reliable at all, but has some suggestions of about us and policies. A praising mention in the Hugo-prize winning science fiction encyclopedia seems to indicate that it's a RS. Ref 2 is from The Age, one of the best Australian papers, and seems to be significant. The Advertiser (Adelaide) is a tabloid, but a discussion on RSN seems to say it's between generally and marginally reliable, but the press coverage is too short to meet SIGCOV. The 4th ref is yet another tabloid-format newspaper, I'd say it could count as one half to one full ref, depending on your votes in AfD (I personally think, provided that it's RS, that it's probably significant). Sadly, the 5th one isn't long enough. The 6th ref is a long piece, but covers the book for less than half of the article, so whether it meet SIGCOV is debatable, but it's probably one half to a full ref. The 7th one is also too short. So, depending on interpretation, there could be 1-4 refs that support GNG (1 is very, very unlikely), although a more reasonable range IMHO is probably 2-3. But only two is needed to meet WP:GNG or the first criteria of WP:NBOOK, so I am voting weak keep. VickKiang (talk) 09:23, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The sole citation, google-translated from the Chinese, says

"Ruijin/ Xingguo/ Zunyi/ Handan/ Yancheng

These five ships are all substitute gunboats converted from merchant ships or transport ships. In the early days of the establishment of the CCP Navy, due to the lack of regular combat ships, a large number of ships from the original China Merchants Bureau and various private shipping and fishing companies were requisitioned to install artillery as substitute gunboats (Also known as frigate); it belongs to the Seventh Fleet of the East China Navy of the Chinese Communist Party.

Among them, the two ships "Ruijin" and "Xingguo" were originally small transport ships of the U.S. Navy. They were sold to China's state-owned China Merchants Shipping Company after the war and were named "Jiangtong" and "Jiangda" respectively. After the CCP won Nanjing and Shanghai, in order to Intensifying preparations for the offensive against Taiwan, the two ships were expropriated by the East China naval authorities and equipped with a land-use 105mm howitzer and two American 76.2mm anti-aircraft guns. Renamed "Ruijin" and "Xingguo" became gunboats.

The "Ruijin" ship was sunk by four F-47 fighters of the National Air Force at 0652 on May 18, 1954 near Cao Xieyu in the waters of Zhejiang; due to the special significance of the name of Ruijin to the history of the CCP, it is reported that the CCP later compensated with Japan. The ship "Hui'an" was put into service in place of "Ruijin"."

From this it appears that the 6 ships in the English WP article include the replacement ship, Hui'an (="Huaiyang", but the wikilink in the article goes to a geographical district, as do all 6 of the "PLAN name"s in the article's table). All the information in the English article beyond what is given in the cited text is at the moment WP:OR, or at least, the editor has forgotten to cite the sources used. The clue "(Also known as frigate)" might lead somewhere, or it might not, it's a very general term in English but it might be more specific in Chinese. All the launch, commissioned, and retired dates are vague in the extreme, barring the exact retired-sunk date for Ruijin which comes from the cited source: in short, the table is almost completely worthless. The same goes for the 8 bluelinks to "World War II" intended as date substitutes: these are vague to the point of non-existence (ignoring the ridiculous overlinking). I wonder where the data - 560 long tons, 180 ft length, 500 hp engine power etc come from - these don't look made up. Maybe User:XdeLaTorre could help us with that? If not, this will have to be deleted as OR. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:27, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, at very least per WP:TNT. We have severe verifiability concerns and the author has so far been unresponsive (User_talk:XdeLaTorre#Chinese_ship_articles). The similar ship articles should probably be scrutinized. Ovinus (talk) 23:19, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Only one of three sources appears to be reliable, that being Dread Central (though it links to the wrong article; can't find the correct one but there is this DVD review). Per this discussion, filmreference.com is blacklisted (though I only see bfilmreference.com on the actual list, a site which doesn't appear to exist; might that be a typo?), and the third is IMDb.

Delete, agreeing with nom. I can't find much coverage beyond "Marc Donato was in film X". As a side note, I do think an argument could be made for WP:NACTOR#1, but the films that he had a significant role in (Bad Kids Go to Hell, The Final, and Sick Boy) appear to be barely notable (if at all), so I don't think finding any reliable coverage based on his appearance in those films is likely. —Danre98^{(talk^contribs)} 15:06, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I believe he meets actor notability guidelines for the movie mentioned above along with his role in Degrassi: The Next Generation and The Blue Butterfly.

Selectively merge to Heartbound (video game). This article contains a lot of content about the game development process of Heartbound, which would fit better there (Heartbound (video game)#Development is almost empty as it stands). Of the sources not talking about Heartbound, Ref 1 is primary, Refs 3 and 5 are interviews lacking independent content, Refs 4 and 6 (which I assume are the same) don't contain any coverage of the company at all, and the rest is obvious chaff like the company's own twitter feed (3 times) and their own website. The argument given on the talk page is largely WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, the the "other stuff" being ancient articles.

Insufficient sourcing available for a stand-alone article, article should be redirected to Communist_Party_USA_(Marxist–Leninist). See additional message that I will shortly add below Elemimele (talk) 16:42, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Politicians and United States of America. Shellwood (talk) 16:52, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This AfD results from a disagreement at the article itself. Scope creep and an IP editor, 72.95.130.125, both attempted to convert the article to a redirect on the grounds that insufficient sourcing was available. Ʃx and Hey man im josh reverted these changes; after a couple of reverts, Josh sensibly suggested that as the redirect was disputed, it should be discussed at AfD. The article was then nominated by Laski22, who almost immediately withdrew the nomination on grounds that Google books "turned up more than expected", and in consequence, Pppery closed the first AfD; Scope creep, who had no idea the AfD had even happened, then restored the redirect, which is possibly contrary to the wishes of Josh and Laski22. I am therefore re-creating a new AfD so the situation can be resolved properly (because I don't know how to re-open closed AfDs). Sorry about the confusion! Elemimele (talk) 16:54, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for creating confusion. I'll stay out of this.Laski22 (talk) 17:31, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As Elemimele mentioned, I reverted the first redirect change as I mistook it for an attempt at blanking while patrolling Recent Changes. This led to a discussion on my talk page where an AfD nomination was also recommended. Like Laski22, I apologize for the confusion and unneeded revision history.

There is some mention on the article’s moderately vandalized talk page about notability. With that said however, I will also remain out of further discussions on this topic and the article. Thank you, Ʃx ^{talk|contribs} 18:51, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Joan Didion article "Comrade Laski, C.P.U.S.A.(M.-L)" is very detailed and constitutes siginificant coverage by one of the worlds best essayists. scope_creep^Talk 12:26, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Which in particular do you consider "passing mentions"? Everything I added has at least a paragraph on Laski and some of them are solely about him.Central and Adams (talk) 12:27, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A paragraph is passing comment, its not significant. I never saw anything that really in-depth. Even the Didion article states he is obscure, and there is barely any biographical info in that article and she set out to meet him, in what is essentially a glorified interview in essay format. scope_creep^Talk 13:56, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A paragraph in the NYT or LAT is not a passing mention, probably a para anywhere in RS isn't. A passing mention is like the people who were arrested with Laski, where there's an article about Laski's arrest and then at the end it says A, B, and C were also arrested. In any case, as I said, a number of the sources I added are solely about Laski. Please be specific about which sources only contain passing mentions. Also, you say that you checked two of them. There are currently fourteen sources, so your sample size seems too small.Central and Adams (talk) 13:59, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Certain papers have a duty to report the court proceedings, folks get reported whether they are notable or not. I think there is probably more than borderline but quantity doesn't mean quality and single paragraphs are not significant coverage. Certainly if there is a quantity of it per policy, it can deemed to be passing WP:SIGCOV, which I think is the case here, but is all very ropey. scope_creep^Talk 14:04, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing I added was routine coverage of court proceedings. If a paper runs a whole article on a misdemeanor arrest it's a good sign that there's something notable about the subject. If they do this repeatedly for the subject's various activities it adds up to notability. It would be more useful if you could identify actual sources that you think are deficient rather than theorizing about what they might say. Please help advance the argument by citing facts instead.Central and Adams (talk) 14:06, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep redirection to CPUSA(ML) is not quite correct, because Laski was involved with a particular split of the party (both splits kept the party name, but published party newspapers under different titles). Laski is probably one of the most (in)famous people in the US New Communist Movement, sadly for his antics in losing a cache of party funds at a Nevada casino, rather than for any particurlarly insightful contribution to Marxism-Leninism. Subject of Didion's portrait is a more than reasonable indication that Laski is notable and, FWIW, Didion frames Laski's obscurity in terms of marginalisation (ie he's been denied attention) rather than irrelevance (note her words: "I'm comfortable with the Michael Laski's of this world, with those who live outside, rather than in, those in whom the sense of dread is so acute that they turn to extreme and doomed committments..."). There's more than passing mention of Laski in Gerald Horne's Fire this Time: The Watts Uprising and the 1960s, discussion of the casino incident on Lib-Com, there's also extensive reportage available via newspapers.com around Laski's claims regarding the CPUSA(ML) role in the 1965 Watts riots and their subsequent debunking.

Delete. Do any of these people have a source of SIGCOV cited in the article? Because that is required to presume SIGCOV exists from meeting an NSPORT subguideline. It looks like most of them are referenced solely to sports databases like lssf-sports.org and the-sports.org, with a couple having additional sources ranging from trivial passing mentions in routine announcements/transactional news/press releases to inaccessible media to purely quotes from the subject. At least one of the articles appears to misgender the subject, too. As it stands none of these subjects meet SPORTCRIT, so the only way to save these articles is for editors to dig into Persian sources to demonstrate SIGCOV.

The result was no consensus. There's two somewhat independent questions here; whether the topic is notable, and whether it should be covered in a standalone article or as part of an article with broader scope. There's clear consensus here as to the first question; a large number of substantive sources has been provided. There's a remarkable lack of agreement as to the second. As merge discussion is a more appropriate venue to pursue that in any case, I'm closing this.

Ludwig's subathon

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

There seems to be no reason why a Twitch streamer's subathon requires its own article, as it can easily be folded into the article of the streamer himself. As a viral Internet event, it likely also fails WP:EVENTCRIT. While it was a particularly long stream, people doing long streams is fairly routine and not exactly something incredible. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 03:54, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep Firstly, passes WP:GNG very easily, with substantial coverage from RS's BBC, New York Times, USA Today, the Verge, and a myriad of other sources deemed reliable per WP:VG/S (see the article for those.) The event is notable for breaking the 2018 record of most concurrent subscribers on Twitch. Yes, "people doing long streams is fairly routine and not exactly something incredible," but major RS publications writing about them is not normal: breaking subscription records is not normal, and the popularity of the subathon was not normal.

Secondly, a 2022 re-analysis of Ludwig's subathon called it the "most high-profile subathon";[19] it's clear Ludwig's subathon set a new popularity and precedent for subathons. Just look at Google Trends for "subathon": the term exploded in popularity after his stream, but remained much higher than pre-March 2021, to this day. For this reason—the popularization of subathons—Ludwig's subathon passes the first criteria of WP:EVENTCRIT because it had "a signifigant lasting effect" on subathons and long streams as a whole on Twitch.

One more thing— I have 10 more tabs of articles from RSs to add to the article. Even in it's current state, a merge to Ludwig Ahgren would add way too much content and be WP:UNDUEWEIGHT in the article. It's much better to keep it separate, especially when comprised of reliable, independent, sources with broad coverage.— PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 05:50, 6 August 2022 (UTC)— Note to closing admin: PerfectSoundWhatever (talk • contribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this XfD. [reply]

Note the part in WP:GNG that says: "A more in-depth discussion might conclude that the topic actually should not have a stand-alone article—perhaps because it violates what Wikipedia is not, particularly the rule that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information." A promotional event held by a single streamer would violate not only WP:INDISCRIMINATE but WP:NOTPROMO unless it had some sort of world-shattering impact, and this subathon was viral yet still a flash in the pan event. It also doesn't seem like it would be very UNDUE if summarized in a single section, which it can easily fit into. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:34, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How is the stream a "promotional event"? Livestreamers broadcast streams, that's the nature of being a creative professional; that's the medium they create and entertain on. That's like saying a musician releasing an album is a "promotional event". Or what's next, an author writing a book? Gasp, how dare they attempt to become popular and earn money? /s

Secondly, Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia, and there's no reason to delete well-sourced articles that pass GNG. All topics with Wikipedia articles do not have a "world-shattering impact", if they did, we would have much, much less than 6 million articles. Why should specially events be held to such a high degree of scrutiny? Besides, I do believe that the subathon passes the overly stringent event criteria per above.

Thirdly, WP:INDISCRIMINATE in no way applies here. You could use that boiler plate argument when trying to delete any article, but that doesn't mean it applies. WP:INDISCRIMINATE isn't even about article deletion / notability, it's about uncontextualized, overly-long data entries. Ludwig's subathon is just a livestream, a perfectly suitable topic for a Wikipedia article; a livestream is essentially just a contemporaneous version of a television show, nothing strange here. How is the prose in this article more "indiscriminate", than say any other article which passes GNG and whose topic did not have a "world-shattering impact" (aka most articles). — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 17:16, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

From the article itself: "A "subathon", short for "subscription marathon", is a type of livestream on Twitch where every time a streamer receives a subscription—US$5 donations from viewers—more time is added to a descending timer.". Doing a marathon for money is the description of a promotional event. For the most part, while many works of entertainment are done for money, the idea of being paid is not the primary focus, just an expectation. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:07, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, but I suggest that the article be rewritten and tweaked to focus on the concept of “subathon” as a distinct topic. There is some interesting discussion from multiple sources about the nature of subathons as well as the health and social impacts on the participants and the audience. Ludwig’s month-long stunt is notable within the parameters of GNG, but it is far from the only one that’s been done in the influencer streaming industry. Some of the more important details from the stream itself can be summarized in one paragraph or two, to avoid undue weight and giving the impression of inappropriately promoting the influencer himself. Ludwig’s subathon can be redirected to such a section. Here’s an example of a source that talks about “subathons” broadly, while also acknowledging Ludwig’s influence on the marketing scheme: Haleth (talk) 02:13, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am absolutely all for the creation of a subathon article if it's notable, but I don't see what it has to do with this article about a specific streamer's one-time subathon. Your "keep" is misleading because it's really a "rewrite completely", which is not something an AfD can force to happen in the slightest. This debate is about the article in its current form, not its possible future form. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 03:54, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per PerfectSoundWhatever's argument. Zxcvbnm, as someone who appreciates your work on this site, I honestly can't agree with your assessment that the subathon even remotely comes close to a routine event. Yes, many Twitch events do seem to border on routine coverage due to their propensity for recentism, and the idea of continuous livestreaming may not seem unique on the face of it. However, with the sheer amount of coverage about the event before, during and after the fact, Ludwig's subathon passes the event guidelines.

First off, Ludwig was credited for popularizing the trend with his subathon in this recent Dot Esports article from over a year since the event ended, proving that the event has had a decent lasting effect per criteria #1 - the lasting effect being that a multitude of streamers have made subathons of their own. It's just like when a musician brings a genre to the mainstream. Or for a more relevant example, how journalists cite Slowbeef as the pioneer of Let's Plays who has inspired plenty of other YouTubers to create videos of that type.

Also, the amount of coverage on the event already shows it passes GNG as PerfectSound and Haleth stated. This means the subathon also passes #2 of the criteria; the sheer number of sources for this one stream alone is just too much to ignore. It's not to the extent of COVID, the George Floyd protests or the Russia-Ukraine invasion, but the coverage it still gets to this day proves that it is, and will most likely continue to be notable. This may sound a bit too wild of a prediction, but perhaps when internet historians look back on the 2020s, they'll acknowledge Ludwig's subathon as one of the most significant moments of livestreaming history. Clearly if The New York Times of all places found it significant enough to discuss, then it's an event worth remembering.

Finally, what really dismisses the "routine" argument is how sources described it. It wasn't just a normal subathon stream - it led to Ludwig beating Ninja's record for all-time subscriptions. The sources mentioned here note that fact; most livestreams of this caliber generally don't break records, making this stand out from the pack. Also, the in-depth coverage of the NYT article contextualizes the subathon within the growth of Twitch during the pandemic, showing that it's not just some flash in the pan event or everyday occurrence. And most importantly, as aforementioned the subathon paved the way for other streamers to create their own version of the stream.

Overall, I believe the subathon is notable enough to justify a split from Ludwig's article. PantheonRadiance (talk) 07:00, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Ludwig. It's an obviously notable event but I don't think it's independently notable. I think WP:UNDUE is the correct policy to cite here, but from the opposite direction. It's undue weight to write such a long article about this event; it should be summarized more succinctly on Ludwig's main page. I'm not even sure the subathon is the most notable event Ludwig has put on and I don't think he considers it such either. Axem Titanium (talk) 03:51, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Ludwig Ahgren#Subathon. Axem put it perfectly so instead of copy/pasting I'll just say +1. Any non-trivia content on this topic more than adequately fits within the parent article's section. It's a stunt and it's covered in the above listed sources as a stunt within his larger livestreaming career. czar 19:43, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Czar and Axem Titanium: I really don't understand either of your rationales, so please bear with me to try to help me to understand. What policy does this cite? (I address the WP:UNDUE later)

Let's take the first part of the deletion rationale that Axem Titanium provided: "It's undue weight to write such a long article about this event; it should be summarized more succinctly on Ludwig's main page". WP:UNDUE has nothing to do with split-off articles: you could make that argument for determining how much text on Ludwig's subathon should be in Ludwig Ahgren's article, but not the article on the separate livestream. Or, that's like saying—(extreme example)—that we shouldn't have an article on the Pacific War because it's length is undue weight for World War II.

Another thing that Axem Titanium said. "I'm not even sure the subathon is the most notable event Ludwig has put on and I don't think he considers it such either". What's your point here? If they are notable and pass WP:EVENTCRIT, they deserve articles. Saying we should delete an article because similar articles don't have pages yet isn't a valid rationale to delete this page.

czar said "Any non-trivia content on this topic more than adequately fits within the parent article's section". I stopped expanding the article upon the AfD, but there's much more information to be added, such as information on earnings from the stream ([20], [21], [22]). czar also said "It's a stunt". It's a livestream; livestreams do streams to make money, that's how it is since that's their profession. Even if you consider it a publicity stunt, that doesn't mean it does not deserve an article. WP:NOT does not prohibit publicity stunts from having encyclopedia entries, and notable ones do; hell, even notable advertisements do.

Thank you for reading, and please respond with policy-based rationales for the deletion of this article. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 21:01, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that UNDUE is not a deletion rationale. In fact, I have no policy-based rationales for deletion because I happen to not be advocating for deletion. My preference for merging stems from a desire for relevant information to be kept together whenever possible so the act of reading one single article provides said information at the proper level of detail in the proper context to understand it. Splitting necessitates a minimum amount of repetition and redundancy that I generally prefer to avoid. There are many notable things that would meet the strict criteria for articles that do not and should not have independent articles because they are more effectively covered within an existing article. For example, despite the fact that Joel and Ethan Coen have done plenty of solo work, they are both covered in a single article, Coen brothers, because 1) splitting them out individually---and possibly having a 3rd article covering them together---would have a tremendous amount of overlap, redundancy, and be difficult to maintain across multiple pages, and 2) it is far more effective to cover them both in a single article that tells their history in context with each other. Remember that we're writing articles for people to read and learn from, not to accumulate chits and awards for "most articles written" (cf. least publishable unit).

My rationale above questioned this event's independent notability. I think it's borderline, but it's possible that this event is only notable in the context of Ludwig himself and doesn't have notability divorced from him. Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. Furthermore, when all of the UNDUE detail is removed from the article, I think it will be plenty short enough to merge back to the main Ludwig article without running into UNDUE weight over there. Hence my suggestion to merge. Axem Titanium (talk) 00:32, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The content could be covered in the parent article without any loss in fidelity. It's one of the basic tenets of summary style. If the section in the parent article became unwieldy, then sure, would be worth assessing a split, but the current article's play-by-play proseline of the stream is not content that belongs in either this article or the parent article. czar 02:13, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Axem Titanium: The comparison between the Coen brothers is not apples-to-apples. The individual people comprise the whole of the Coen brothers. There is little overlap between the scope of Ludwig Ahgren and his subathon; the subathon is not a part of him, it's a piece of entertainment he created. It's not much different than Guitar Songs being a separate article than Billie Eilish, for example. (Narrator (song) and Squid (band) for a more obscure example, also one I wrote). It would be WP:OFFTOPIC to talk about the earnings and reception of the subathon in a biography of Ahgren, just like it would be off topic to talk about the recording of Narrator (song) in a synopsis of Squid (band). This is why they are separate articles, the scope is different. The only difference between Guitar Songs / Narrator (song) and the subathon is that the subathon was created on a different medium, livestreaming. It's medium doesn't stop it from being a piece of entertainment that is separate from the person who created it.

@Czar: I have essentially the same reply to you. The scope of the articles is different: the subathon is not a subset of his life, it's something he did / created. Movie, TV show, and video games articles have plot summary-type sections frequently: album articles too. Why is a "play-by-play proseline of the stream" that is well-sourced an issue? WP:PROSELINE itself says that the best solution is turning proseline into direct prose or timelines, not removal of it. Trying to not WP:BLUDGEON; this should be my last reply here. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 19:41, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Why is a "play-by-play proseline of the stream" that is well-sourced an issue?

Because it's trivia: it's stultifying to read and imparts nothing upon the reader. If written succinctly to inform the reader, removing the repetition of X viewers on Y day, it would be a fraction of its length and show that there is nothing remarkable being said, which is why sources similarly didn't cover the event with daily updates. If you don't see that by now, I don't think this AfD is going to convince you. Based on the sources, it's a matter of time before it's merged back into the parent article. czar 20:12, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The references I saw clearly involve the specific event and there are enough that the event itself is notable. An example for comparison would be The Shot, which is an article about Michael Jordan's single play within a single game within a single playoff series within a single NBA finals series within a single NBA season, showing that Wikipedia has no restrictions on drilling down into individually notable events within other events that have their own notability (had it taken place today my guess would be every one of those elements above would have their own articles).

Significant coverage is always a pre-requisite to a standalone article, but it does not mean an article should always exist when something gets a significant amount of coverage, we have to also consider whether an article would be undue for the importance of whatever it is about. In this case it could easily be merged without readers losing any important information about it. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:23, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'll elaborate further my !vote with an analysis of WP:NEVENT. The criteria:
1. Enduring historical significance and meets GNG or has a lasting impact
  While it passes GNG (RSs like NYT and BBC; SIGCOV being deeply covered in NYT and Kotaku), the weakest argument in this list is it having a lasting impact. There was coverage ~2 weeks after the bulk of the coverage from ScreenRant and 10 months later in DotEsports. Realistically, a long-lasting impact would include more than just the DotEsports article.
2. Widespread impact and diverse sources
  Diverse sources would include mainstream and non-internet-focused publications. USA Today, the NYT, and the BBC's domains cover broad news, and for them to cover an internet event like this is unusual. That is, the event was able to break through to mainstream sources. I'd say the fact that USA Today covered it strongly implies a widespread impact.
3. Not lesser coverage or limited scope
  The coverage is not small in coverage or scope. The Kotaku article(s) and the NYT one are of medium length and go into detail.
4. Not routine coverage
  This is the easiest one to argue against. This isn't routine coverage of livestreams, but a novel event. Livestreams do not get routine coverage. I can remember Hbomberguy's similar charity stream that got coverage and an appearance from AOC, which was also not a routine type of coverage.
Overall, I'd consider it to pass NEVENT and GNG. I would not be opposed to a merger, but my !vote remains a keep. SWinxy (talk) 21:38, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, because the band also had another charting single. The band and the song are both notable, but there is not enough content to justify a split. An entry in any encyclopedia, even as just a paragraph in a large one, is grounds for notability.

Cat Selfies

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

A book that does not appear to pass the WP:GNG or WP:NBOOK. The article has a reception section, but it does not actually include any inline citations to the reviews it discusses, and I could not find them. Additionally, at least one of them (the Northwich Guardian) appears to just be a small, non-notable local paper. I was unable to find any real reviews or coverage upon multiple searches - the best I could find were these two links, and neither one of them are what I would consider to be actual reviews. The author does not appear to be notable either, so there is no valid target to merge or redirect to as an alternative. Rorshacma (talk) 02:35, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – apparently no reviews and no other substantial coverage. I wasn't able to find the review, if it is a review, in Your Cat Magazine, but it's probably moot as Your Cat Magazine's probably not a reliable source. The Northwich Review's comments are on the website of its sister publication (?), the Knutsford Guardian, and they run to three short sentences. The only halfway viable source seems to be the puff piece in the Mirror, which alone counts for not very much. As the nominator says, there's no plausible redirect target and probably no scope to cover this in the enyclopaedia in any form. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 21:10, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
