Does not meet WP:GNG There's some less-than-independent coverage cited in the article, and I was unable to find any more-substantial coverage. The previous redirect at this title, which existed for about 4 years, was to an unrelated American TV show, so that's not a suitable alternative to deletion. Incidentally, I'm not sure if "Nollywood" is applicable to Nigerian television productions, I had thought it was primarily for film, and thus Single Ladies (Nigerian TV series) would perhaps be a more appropriate title if kept. signed, Rosguill talk 15:58, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

- I contributed this article, so I'll go to bat for it. Only two of the references are about a "startup." The company is 5 years old and established in Dallas, so not really a startup anymore. In the time since it has been profiled in newspapers from the Dallas Morning News to the New York Times. One of the references is about a new product launch, nearly 5 years after the company's founding. Another reference is about quintupling sales over some years. I originally included references that made the article more about the business and less about the founders (like tea industry award nominations), but valereee deleted those as puffery. I'll leave it there. Nmd1978 (talk) 23:30, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- Last point, I didn't think of this til after the fact. valereee seemed happy to edit this article (as anyone can see in the history) until I challenged her on the Brandon Friedman article. At that point she returned to this article, 16 days after her initial edits, and recommend it for deletion. That made me feel like she's non-neutral and vindictive. If the article was worthy of deletion, why was she editing sections of it more than two weeks ago? It seems really weird. Nmd1978 (talk) 02:44, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- She removed a large section of WP:PUFF, promotional content, designed to promte the company. Promotion is explicitly banned per the Wikipedia Terms of Use. It was me that sent the article for deletion as its crock. scope_creepTalk 04:49, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

- Strong keep. Krahe is one of the more famous corrupt police officers in Australian history, and the article peculiarly undersells his notability. There are pages and pages of relevant Google Books hits. The peak of his notoriety was in the 1970s (and early 1980s as things were uncovered) so a general Google search turns up lower quality stuff than I'd have expected, but any book on organised crime in Sydney in the late twentieth century, or on the numerous notable cases he was a key figure in, quite a few books dealing with organised crime in Queensland, as well as anything on corrupt police inevitably features Krahe in a significant way. He passes both #1 and #2 of WP:PERP by an an absolute mile: he's a key suspect in the murder of at least three Wikipedia-notable people, all of which have multiple books about their killings, and he's received three decades of sustained coverage.

- Keep. Australia has never been known to have corrupt police officers and I think this one deserves his own article because how notable this case was since the 1970s. He also passes WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV.`~HelpingWorld~` (👽🛸) 04:42, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep It does not matter whether or not Australia has no significant record of police corruption. The subject, on the basis of evidence alone, is distinctly notable and of encyclopaedic interest.

- AC polarity inversion (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
A very confusing article that is entirely unsourced, this appears to be largely original research/synthesis. This started out at the title Phase inversion as a dictionary definition of what phase inversion is, which was then expanded with what appears to have been a load of original research. Chunks of this article don't make sense, e.g. the claim A polarity inversion is neither a time shift nor a phase shift, but simply a swap of plus and minus
is wrong in at least a significant number of cases, for a sine wave a swap of sign, 180 degree phase shift and a time delay of 1/2 cycle are all the same thing, and this claim directly contradicts the only sourced version of the article [5] , which claims that this is the Introduction of a phase difference of 180°
. The phrase "AC polarity inversion" itself appears to have been invented by the wikipedia editor who moved the page, it does not appear in google scholar, all the google hits appear to be wikipedia mirrors, and it does not appear in google books. I don't see how Phase inversion applied to electronics is a distinct topic from phase inversion applied to other areas of physics, they appear to be the same thing. 192.76.8.85 (talk) 18:04, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete The article contains numerous factual errors, and indeed frequently contradicts itself. If the incorrect/unsourced information were removed, there'd be effectively nothing left. There might be enough material specifically about 180° phase shifts to be worth having an article about them, but starting from scratch would probably be preferable to starting from here. I also can't find anything on the subject of "AC polarity inversion" in the reference provided (that doesn't mean it isn't there, just that I can't find it – the reference is a website that consists of hundreds of individual small pages, and links to the website as a whole rather than any single page). --ais523 03:16, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Ais523 The article started off as a clone of https://web.archive.org/web/20130313104528/http://www.atis.org/glossary/definition.aspx?id=2853. The reason you can't find "AC polarity inversion" in the source is because it doesn't exist in the source, "AC polarity inversion" seems to be something that wikipedians have created by adding their own original reasearch and examples to the definition of "phase inversion" until the actual topic it started out as became unrecognisable. Even if reverted back to the properly sourced version I don't think this is a suitable topic for a standalone article - the content here is just a WP:DICDEF, and the concept of phase inversion is already fully explained in Phase (waves) 192.76.8.85 (talk) 05:50, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

- Merge into John Dingell perhaps? A quick search brings up passing references in NPR and The Nation but the focus is more about him than the bill itself. Considering he was the only one sponsoring the bill most years, it seems appropriate. Phil Bridger has a good point, it could be mentioned in History of health care reform in the United States as well. I spent a couple minutes making the "legislative history" table in the article, but I don't oppose deleting the table/article. 〈 Forbes72 | Talk 〉 01:49, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

This article hasn't been expanded significantly and remains unsourced since 2014. I prodded it in 2021 and nothing improved. Not much here is even useful for the University of Nairobi article. I did my due diligence and could not find reliable secondary sources that cover the subject significantly to establish WP:GNG nor WP:NCORP.
If someone else can prove me wrong, I welcome it. But, at this point, I do not believe this subject merits inclusion in Wikipedia.

- I agree that it should be deleted, but please note that yesterday it did have numerous notable sources, including from The New York Times, New York Daily News, several local newspapers and others. A user who is a self-proclaimed fan of the article subject went through and removed all of these sources, and then added a bunch of unsourced content. The article has been subject to a great deal of random editing that has made it unreliable, mostly from people who appear to be either the article subject himself, or fans of his who find his criminal conviction offensive.

At some point, @ScottishFinnishRadish: swept through an deleted a large swath of what was in the article and I couldn't really argue with any of it. There just isn't enough coverage of the subject, and what coverage that does exist is tainted by the extremity of the stories, which make media outlets all the more eager to report on it without proper sources.

Sexy Vegan, running as an independent, will not be topping any polls, although he would have a distinct advantage on a crowded debate stage since his name is tattooed on his face.
from a NYT opinion piece on the 739 candidates you've never heard of, or listicles and other unreliable sources.Her tale was tame in comparison to the teen whose mother wanted her to get into exotic dancing, or the young woman who believed she was pregnant with baby Jesus despite not being pregnant at all, or an unhinged personality who called himself simply “Sexy Vegan.”
is the only mention from the Yahoo News/Fatherly source, Newsweek clickbait like the source used in this article is why it's not considered reliable at RSP anymore.

- That's disturbing. In any case, I still think the article should be deleted because there are a lot of sockpuppets making edits on it, and the manpower needed to maintain a neutral POV would be futile in that situation, but if I never had any personal opinion on this person before, I do now. Paying people money to have them purposely raise a big stink on Wikipedia and get articles deleted is a sneaky, underhanded and vain thing to do.

This appears to be a compiled list, failing WP:NLIST. The FIG does not keep this on their website either. Also, majority of this article appears to be WP:OR, for ex. In some countries, such Japan & China, there are many male gymnasts with great results but haven't participated in international competitions because of the limit per country. Therefore, it is needed to include the scores from domestic tournaments, namely national championships and domestic cups, to make comparison about a gymnast's ability..

PROD had to be refused because this was nominated earlier, but you know, people responding to nominations need to do WP:BEFORE too, and this should never have gotten through the first nom.

- Delete as WP:TOOSOON, per WP:NACTOR, and I have not found significant coverage in independent and reliable sources to support WP:BASIC. Airdie Today says "Father of Nations is her first speaking role, she has done background work, as well as theatre projects" but without further detail. The Sarnia Observer describes the film as "her on-screen debut" and says "Kamunya graduated from Bert Church High School where she dabbled in theatre projects." Both of these sources are also largely based on her statements, so the independence and secondary support is limited. I am also unsure about the notability of the film, because Airdie Today describes it as an indie film with a "limited theatrical release" and I have not found strong support per WP:NFSOURCES and WP:NFO, e.g. the Calgary Herald and Gauntlet sources are based on an interview with writer-producer-star Nathan Horch and director Aleisha Anderson.

Keep He has numerous media coverage in notable south African newspapers as seen and mentioned by some editors. So, there is an evidence of notability associated with him.

Draftify (again) and require overhaulbased on reliable sources. Is this person notable? Per RS found by Park3r, answer is yes,he meets WP:GNG, but not for the reasons stated in the article as currently written
which paints a fairly innocuous picture relying on unreliable sources, omitting negative coverage contained within a couple of those. Need to be wary of COI here. I understand the reflexive keep votes due to GNG being met, but this article is far from complete until material is added, backed by reliable sources, giving due weight to past reporting on (alleged? proven?) fraud and culpable homicide conviction. Since article is fairly new, send it back to draftspace and monitor to ensure it doesn't get moved back out again before the glaring omissions have been addressed. — 2406:3003:2077:1E60:C998:20C6:8CCF:5730 (talk) 13:23, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- WP:ATD-I: Draftification is a valid alternative to deletion which this article is eligible for, being <90 days old. This will
allow time and space for the draft's improvement until it is ready for mainspace
. Citing WP:NOTCLEANUP is a flawed argument; it states (emphasis mine)articles should not be deleted as punishment because no one has felt like cleaning them up yet
— but I am not advocating deletion here. I am calling attention to the fact that there is an option for a more nuanced and useful resolution than a knee-jerk keep, and we should avail ourselves of it. This page has been draftified before but got moved back into mainspace prematurely. Now, we can WP:DRAFTIFY via AfD which provides a link back to the discussion here, documenting the issues that need to be addressed before AfC process accepts and promotes the article back. For me, that is a much better alternative than leaving the article in mainspace after having slapped a bunch of cleanup templates on it but leaving no clear, easily-followed trail back to this discussion. — 2406:3003:2077:1E60:C998:20C6:8CCF:5730 (talk) 03:39, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - Notable as a fraudster. When reliable sources start reporting on other reliable sources investigations to expose the subject's skeletons that he may have in the closet, I think not only subject is notable but the newspaper investigations of the subject are notable, too. But could be draftified until reviewed via AfC. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 00:01, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment about editing behaviour - Given that notability is established. There appears to be some sort of subtle edit war going on with this article.I observe that immediately after creation, this article was, reasonably, moved to draft space by the nominator. Only 20 days later, the article was moved back to article space, by a relatively new user, without going through an Articles for creation review. Also, editors are not attempting to achieve a consensus of what this article is about as there is no talk page discussion about reverted edits. At least one user has been blocked due to their editing behaviour in relation to this article. There now appears to be a revert war developing between the page mover, who appears to be protecting the article from changes, and an anonymous editor who has challenged this. Consequently, I suggest this article be redraftified and have move protection applied until the article goes through an AfC review. If and when the article is retained in, or moved back to, article space then Extended confirmed protection should be applied. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 00:01, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for your observations. My involvement in this article is thus: I stumbled across it here at AfD and noted the disparity between the article at that time and the reliable sources that had been turned up. As you can see above, I did not consider it ready for mainspace. However, there did not seem to be any appetite for draftification, so I decided to bite the bullet and do a rewrite so that the article would be worthy of a keep outcome. After submitting my 12:05, 16 July 2022 UTC edit, I was startled to see it nestled in between undo edits by Gingie11. Rather than acting in the heat of the moment, I chose to go off for a meal break and do some other things (that was the original plan anyway). By the time I returned, Gingie11 had already been blocked for disruptive editing after edit warring with patrollers, so I picked up the pieces and continued working. I was preparing to submit this changeset when "Show preview" and "Show changes" started giving strange output; this coincided with Lamini's three undos. I was not aware at the time that they were the "
page mover
" and simply followed the example of patrollers before me to revert what seemed like simple vandalism at the time, then posted the relevant uw template to user's talkpage. I have no intention of edit warring and would be willing to work on reaching consensus on legitimate issues; would also welcome assistance from experienced editors to scrutinize with regard to WP:BLPCRIME. However, seeing that Gingie11 seems to prefer the whitewashed version of the article, one wonders if this could be a case of Wikipedia:An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing. At this point I would oppose draftification — what would be the point of putting this through AfC now? The subject has been established to be notable and the article is now properly supported by reliable sources. If there are legitimate content disputes, there is no impediment to sorting that out in mainspace. As for page protection, admins should do what they feel is necessary; I'll just note that any protection higher than pending changes would be an inconvenience for me, but it's not a big deal, the rewriting is pretty much done and others can take care of the maintenance. — 2406:3003:2077:1E60:C998:20C6:8CCF:5730 (talk) 02:09, 17 July 2022 (UTC) - To address Cameron Dewe's concerns re: consensus, the other users have been invited to the talkpage. — 2406:3003:2077:1E60:C998:20C6:8CCF:5730 (talk) 15:01, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment There's a lot to unpack here but I'll try to cover as much as possible. The "National FMCG Summit and Awards" is a marketing industry award, where Ali won in the category of "Beauty & Personal Care". My view is that this is not notable by Wikipedia's standards, and it's a stretch to claim that it as a "well-known and significant award or honor" (ANYBIO #1). The sources listed as either A) not independent of the subject or B) not significant coverage. Here's a sample: ref 1 has the format of a press release (Ali's contact details are at the bottom), ref 2 was written by the subject. If you go through the rest of the sources you'll notice that none of the them discuss Ali's work in any serious or in-depth manner. These are essentially puff pieces, i.e. about his background/growing up in Lebanon [17][18], to one story about how he is apparently "Fun Loving, Optimistic"[19]. These sources do not count towards NBIO.-KH-1 (talk) 03:11, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment How many criteria must the entity pass to warrant an article? Just one!
Let's not forget the fact that aside from the concern raised by KH-1, there are other vital pieces of stuff like his significant coverage in multiple publications. With the concerns raised, I do not think having the contact details and social media handles of a person in a publication make it invalid. I contribute to https://profileability.com/, and we add contact details to every publication. Also, I did not come across Ali Jihami as a writer for any media house; we can consider two things here, it is either the writer coincidentally share same name as the entity, or the writer of the publication contacted Ali Jihami directed for the information.

One who feels that it is a "very weak keep" on the basis that a single award may provide notability but acknowledges that policy may not support that and that sources are lacking.

I sent this to AFD in January, and it was closed as "soft delete" due to a lack of participation. It was then taken to WP:REFUND by user @Gormongous:, who argued that the comic winning a Web Cartoonist's Choice Award, and that it was gathered in print collections, were enough for it to be notable. The user further claimed Secondary sources on Elf Life are difficult to find, given the regrettable tendency of creator Eric Gustafson to paywall, abandon, or delete his work once he grew frustrated with or tired of it, but it was a major artistic presence on Keenspot until its abrupt hiatus in late 2004, enjoying crossovers and references from other significant comics on the site like Avalon and Clan of the Cats.
I do not feel this is a valid argument, and does not address the lack of WP:RS. As of right now, the only sources in the article are Wayback links to the comic itself, or the WCCA's website. I found absolutely no results on Google News, Newspapers.com, Google Books, or ProQuest, and the comic name turns up <30 hits on regular Google. Winning the WCCA is not a sign of webcomic notability in and of itself if no further sources exist; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jack (webcomic) (3rd nomination) as but one example. If there are indeed sources hiding somewhere, then Gormongous or any other editors arguing to keep must prove that reliable third-party sources exist.

- Weak keep. Can we discuss more how winning Web Cartoonists' Choice Awards is not enough? As a rule of thumb, winning a notable award IMHO makes something pass WP:GNG. Do ping me if you reply here. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:00, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Applegeeks (2nd nomination) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sabrina Online (2nd nomination) are the first two AFDs I found where winning WCCA was not enough to save the article. I hardly see how the WCCA is a "major" award if it only existed for seven years. The utter lack of secondary sources should absolutely be weighed more greatly. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 16:39, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- You are right that most did not consider this notable, but frankly, I see only one good argument against and one for regarding this award in the second AfD. Overall, I don't think we established a consensus this award is not notable (also the closer disagreed). Back then the award did not have its own article, it does now, so this further invalidates the old consensu. While I often agree with you, this time I'll dissent and stay by my week keep, as I think thea award has been shown to be notable (per sources cited in the article it has now), which by extrapolation means that it confers some notability to its winners, IMHO.

- Delete – I have to agree with Ten Pound Hammer and HenryCrun that just a single award is not enough to establish notability. The entire rest of the article is currently original research, citing only the primary sources. There doesn't seem to be any reliable third-party sources to base an actual article around here. @Piotrus: I simply don't believe that one or two awards give us much to work with when it comes to writing an encyclopedic article. I consider each award a single secondary source no different from a magazine article, personally. ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat) 13:34, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Maplestrip While I am often on the deletionist side of discussions, I to believe that winning a recognized (notable) award makes something notable. That's my interpretation of GNG's concept of significance/importance. The Award was mentioned in NYT: [20]. It's not invisible. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:12, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: I don't want to judge this based on the WCCA; if it were an Eisner I would feel the same. Specifically, I don't believe that an award listing on its own counts as "significant coverage," as it does not "[address the topic] in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content." Moreover, I would note that GNG speaks of "sources." It doesn't speak of a singular source being enough. GNG says nothing about the significance/importance of the subject itself, and awards aren't mentioned in the guideline at all. A single award organization, no matter how prestigious, is to me not sufficient. ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat)
- Indeed, rules support your version, but they are also inconsistent in application - we often accept an award as significant in some other context, including WP:NBIO. In either case, I agree more sources would be needed, hence my week keep, which, frankly, is a very weak one. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:10, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: I would personally be concerned if a BLP had only a single secondary citation (to an award). I would argue that it is impossible to write an article conforming to BLP policies if there are no reliable sources about them. Of course, usually, anyone who wins a suitable award will be written about by other sources too, so I'm sure this doesn't come up too often. Webcomics journalism is sadly quite niche. ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat) 09:57, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- It is, and it's a fact this comic has not garnered much attention from more mainstream media, not too mention academia. If it goes, it goes, no big loss, but I do think it is valuable to discuss the case of such awards.

- Delete - Since WP:ANYBIO has been brought up several times above, I just want to point out that it rather explicitly states "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included", emphasis mine. Even if the WCCA is determined to be a notable award, winning it is not an automatic guarantee that an article is justified. And the fact that there is no significant coverage in reliable, secondary sources about the comic included in the current article, none has been presented in this AFD by any of the Keep arguments, and that I could not find any myself upon searching means that this is one of the cases where it is not. Rorshacma (talk) 18:09, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
Keep per what has been said above. I've heard of it, and I know that's not the test of notability, but I think it is notable and can be improved.

- Delete: The general notability guideline (GNG) is coverage in multiple substantial reliable independent sources. The Web Cartoonist Choice Awards are not substantial coverage; the web pages associated with the awards do not go into detail about the comic, its publication history, its contents and storylines, etc. They only state the name of the comic, the author, and that it won the award in question. So the WCCA can't help a webcomic meet the general notability requirements. And overall I don't think GNG is met; apart from the WCCA, I only found brief coverage on ComixTalk - again not substantial. Separate from the general notability guideline is the line in "Notability (web)" which says, "web-specific content may be notable [if] the website or content has won a well-known and independent award from either a publication or organization". However, I would not call the WCCA "well-known". As such, I recommend deletion unless more independent sources can be found, or unless a case can be made that the WCCA is "well-known".

I would like to nominate this article for deletion because as with most Coldplay EPs, Acoustic is not a very notable release: Its details can be boiled down to a text on their discography page, it has not appeared on any country's national music chart, it has not been certified gold or higher in at least one country and it has not won or been nominated for a major music award.

- Comment - I really don't think these all should have been bundled like this. Outside of all being Coldplay releases, they're all pretty unconnected to one another, and a brief skim of them made it look like they all had varying sourcing situations that probably should have separate discussions. Sergecross73 msg me 14:18, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- These were all promotional/limited releases to further market their respective album eras and I personally think they don't warrant a separated page. I know I should not be anecdotal, but if you ask the average Coldplay fan (me included), they will say only Prospekt's March (which charted in numerous countries) and Kaleidoscope (which is Grammy-nominated) are notable. Some might mention Safety and The Blue Room due to their historical nature as pre-Parachutes content as well. But the rest can easily be described in the discography page like I mentioned or merged into album and tour pages. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 18:35, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- And you could very well be right on the point of notability. Maybe they're not notable. It just feels like it should like it should be five different discussions to get there. If people start doing their due diligence and reviewing the sources present, and there's any back and forth, it's going to get messy fast. Alternatively, on the front end, it seems to be scaring away participants as well. Sergecross73 msg me 14:45, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- Very well then, I'll be removing the other EPs and nominating them separately. This will be the Acoustic nomination. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 11:07, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Fails to meet notability criteria.
Mostly sourced to press releases, blog posts, and articles which were written by the company owner, no useful content would be left after removing that content.
I'm fairly sure it's at least in part being edited by people associated with the company, for example the recent edit by an anonymous IP who added links to tweets "recommending" the platform, someone who refers to themselves as a "team member" who reverted those tweets being removed as spam by a bot, and the initial versions which read even more like an advert. The same new editors are also trying to add links to it from other articles such as Digital Art which are then reverted. JaggedHamster (talk) 09:15, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. WP:FANCRUFT, listcruft variety. No evidence this meets WP:LISTN. Previous AfD ended at no consensus due to argumentsts that it contains blue-linked entities, but I am not sure what policy that argument is based on. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:42, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- Something dream focus made up that doesn’t actually exist, I presume. Dronebogus (talk) 14:12, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - Aside from the reasons already brought up in the above discussions, there also seems to be quite a bit of WP:OR here, as there are a number of characters/sections/etc. that are listed here with no actual reliable sources supporting why they would all be grouped together. The number of blue links is also not a very good argument for Keeping as many of them were just circular links that led right back to this page (I think I removed all of those at this point). Even among the remaining ones, many of them are just links to other lists of Marvel characters or links to articles where they are not the main topic and barely mentioned. There are a few of the typical click-bait "TOP TEN STRONGEST MARVEL DEMONS" type "articles" out there, which I'm sure someone will bring up as evidence that this passes WP:LISTN, but I will preemptively argue that they do not, as they merely cover a small handful of these characters with a couple sentences of entirely in-universe plot information. Rorshacma (talk) 16:17, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep I have removed the original research problems and mentions of any demon which didn't have their own article or significant mention in another article. This navigational list is more useful than Category:Marvel Comics demons since it allows for additional information to be found, helping readers find what they might be interested in reading. Wikipedia:Categories, lists, and navigation templates and WP:LISTPURP are relevant here. Dream Focus 16:59, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Dream Focus I can somewhat see how this made sense for the list of fictional deities, which is a big concept. But this is b/c I also believe we can have an article for fictional deity, a concept. Whereas I have trouble finding Marvel Comic demon a notable concept. More to a point, what's the rationale for us even having the category Category:Marvel Comics demons? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:49, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- You can’t just make a list of any random crap and say it’s “navigational”. The other day I was looking for the name of an anime girl with a headband, that doesn’t mean I want or need a Wikipedia list of anime girls by headwear. Dronebogus (talk) 14:44, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - the majority of the characters listed have little connection to one another. Grouping them together serves no purpose that I can see. Argento Surfer (talk) 12:50, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete- huge sprawling wall of fancruft. This content would be more at home on Wikia or on a fan page somewhere, but on this encyclopedia it is poorly sourced and excessively crufty, with lots of original research and little to no navigational value. Reyk YO! 21:49, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: does not meet WP:LISTN or WP:GNG. No significant sources. Shooterwalker (talk) 21:52, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - Let this page stay. I don't know where else on this website we should list the information on the demons. To the person closing this discussion if the outcome is delete, I ask that you transfer all the demon redirects to this page to each of the List of Marvel Comics characters pages so that they would be mentioned there. --Rtkat3 (talk) 03:11, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- Are Demons really characters though? — SirDot (talk) 12:59, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- Begging for mercy is not a keep rationale. We don’t need to list “information on the demons” here at all, it’s not sufficiently notable. Dronebogus (talk) 13:22, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- To recap, I am asking the closer to to transfer the demon redirects to this page to the respectful List of Marvel Comics characters pages in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE. Chthon and Set already have redirects there. --Rtkat3 (talk) 17:57, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - The list is being filled in (as well as references where appropriate), demonstrating the connections of many of the demonic characters to one another within Marvel continuity. Feels like a nice corollary to List of deities in Marvel Comics, and could be a useful resource for academic research into the mythology of Marvel. -- stoshmaster (talk) 23:23, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- There are still no reliable independent sources talking about this topic; your points are either inapplicable to this encyclopedia (why do we care how filled in it is or how a bunch of comic book demons are connected?) or WP:ILIKEIT/WP:ITSUSEFUL. Dronebogus (talk) 00:39, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment having reviewed the additional material, I will say the article is better presented than it was when I first !voted. However, I still feel the majority of the characters are unrelated aside from the weak connection of sharing the label "demon." Marvel's demonic mythology was never consistently developed between different comic series, and this list is synthesis until the academic research Stoshmaster mentions is actually performed. If we retain this list as a useful resource for that potential research, we risk a citogenesis problem. Argento Surfer (talk) 13:33, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
- Indeed. Dronebogus (talk) 21:50, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
- I tend to agree that the list is a bit broad, and that a number of entries are not demons per se but instead have some connection with demonic power. For instance, are the various Ghost Riders or Nightcrawler really demons?? Maybe if the list were culled to solely being "actual" demons, it might be more useful? (Someone with more knowledge than me would need to make those decisions.) -- stoshmaster (talk) 18:55, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
- Circa 2009, Ghost Rider was revealed to be an angel. I don't know if that's still the case. Argento Surfer (talk) 11:42, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment - That really is not a valid reason for keeping as it does not address any of the concerns brought up in the AFD, namely that there is not any significant coverage in reliable sources to even establish that "Marvel Comics Demons" are even a notable concept, let alone to support any of the information. There really has been no improvement to this article since its nomination - the article may have been reorganized to look prettier, but is still entirely just plot information cited directly to issues of comics, if even that.

- I agree about the articles currently listed (especially if that's all that's there), but maybe we could expand the disambiguation page considerably to actually help people work out which "BBC Studio" it is they are looking for. The articles I would actually consider adding might include pages of both current and historical BBC studios like:
There is arguably a lot of confusion about this and it might be nice to help readers find what they need, given that the term "BBC studio" continues to be used a lot informally, and most of the official names can be hard to keep straight unless you live in one of the areas or work in the industry. Cielquiparle (talk) 11:23, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- I agree with Cielquiparle, converting this to a set index (possibly at a title like List of BBC studios) seems like the most helpful way to go. If this is deleted though it should be redirected to BBC Studios, if it isn't it needs a link and/or hatnote there. Thryduulf (talk) 15:44, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to BBC Studios and have a separate set index page (I had to look that up) such as "List of BBC studios" (lower case "s") to explain what all the different BBC studios are, which could be pointed to from "BBC Studios" as a hatnote. (Happy to work on the set index page if needed.) Cielquiparle (talk) 18:04, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

This page had been a redirect to BBC Studios when it was created, but the target page was renamed to BBC Studioworks, with another topic being renamed to BBC Studios. Although the current disambiguation page was only created last week, the title has been ambiguous for a long time now. --Joshua Issac (talk) 23:35, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

Redundant (WP:CFORK) to 2022 Conservative Party leadership election (UK), Chris Pincher scandal and 2022 United Kingdom government crisis.

- Delete duplicates existing content, and no added benefit to this article. The events up until 7 July duplicate 2022 United Kingdom government crisis, and most of the rest of it duplicates 2022 Conservative Party leadership election (UK). It's not a timeline of the election, as it has many things not directly related to the election itself. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:40, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: The same information is also included at 2022 in the United Kingdom, where a huge list of departures were added last week, and this article was an attempt to rehome some of that information. It is based on Timeline of the 2007 Labour Party leadership election (UK), where a similar thing appears to have been done. I won't lose any sleep if this is deleted though, which looks likely at this point. This is Paul (talk) 18:39, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- I also thought of merging this but to a different article. There are some years in British politics articles (see for example 2021 in United Kingdom politics and government), with the page for 2022 yet to be created. With your permission I’d like to submit a request to move the page to 2022 in United Kingdom politics and government then expand it with other UK political events, taking some information from 2022 in the United Kingdom and trimming that page a little as it is currently 250K long and becoming cumbersome to edit. This is Paul (talk) 17:16, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- If you want to create 2022 in United Kingdom politics and government, you should create it from scratch. What such an article would contain about this election would be at a much higher level of generality than what the deleted article contained; it would also be in prose rather than a timeline.

I'll copy the text from here into a draft then look at trimming some of it, especially the list of departures, which is incomplete and could be summarised. I'll also add other politics events throughout the year, such as by-elections, cabinet reshuffles, events relating to devolved government, etc. This is Paul (talk) 17:01, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

'Comment: Films and Chinese is well outside my area, but from outside: does it matter if the available references are mostly about a lawsuit caused by the series?

- @Elemimele: a lack of references about the subject itself means the subject fails criteria for a standalone article.

Since the term could refer to BOTH Florida's law and other laws similar to Florida's law (which is documented in Anti-LGBT curriculum laws in the United States), I would keep it as a disambiguation unless or until "the Don't Say Gay bill" is THE name for Florida's law and Florida's law only.

This subject may not meet general notability guidelines; I can't find significant coverage in independent reliable sources in English, but perhaps others can help determine if there is such coverage in other languages. The article was PRODed in September 2021 and then moved to draft in October 2021 where a different version still exists at Draft:D-Agree. Somehow a duplicate article was moved here in June 2022 and then most of its history was struck as WP:COPYVIO. There is a paragraph about the subject in Issue-based information system, which looks appropriate to me, but I doubt there is sufficient notability for this separate article, which also, by the way, was created by connected contributors.

- Comment
- a) Please see if this citation helps in any way Which also seems academically independent of present researcher contributor.
- "Ito, T., Suzuki, S., Yamaguchi, N., Nishida, T., Hiraishi, K., & Yoshino, K. (2020). D-Agree: Crowd Discussion Support System Based on Automated Facilitation Agent. Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 34(09), 13614-13615. https://doi.org/10.1609/aaai.v34i09.7094"
- b) A goodfaith researcher's contribution in his own area of knowledge generally need not be considered serious breach of COI. Being unable to accommodate Phd level researchers just because enough independent coverage does not exist is structural problem of Wikipedia. IMHO as long as any researcher contributor is not promoting pseudo–science we give encyclopedic space (by merging if necessary) at least in related article until draft gets developed.

- "Afghanistan: D-Agree - An AI-based solution to support participatory urban planning In 2019, the Nagoya Institute of Technology and Kyoto University, in partnership with the Kabul Municipality, developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered platform, called D-Agree, to support information-centric participation in urban planning and provide support for stakeholders to reach consensus. D-Agree, is a largescale online debate support platform based on AI facilitation, where its AI-based tool extracts the discussion structure based on IBIS (issues, ideas, pros, and cons) from the human opinions posted on the D-Agree platform, as well as data collected from other social media. From September 2019 until the fall of Kabul in August 2021, D-Agree was used on behalf of Kabul Municipality to moderate 306 Kabul city-related planning discussions. In these discussions, more than 15,000 citizens participated in planning activities hosted by D-Agree and generated more than 71,000 opinions (catalogued into IBIS) regarding urban-related thematic areas. Despite the Taliban take-over, D-Agree will continue to play an important role in facilitating urban planning and infrastructure-related consultations. The next steps are to expend the platform to promote communicative planning in other cities, including Kandahar and Herat, which have officially expressed their intention to collaborate. D-Agree will also be used in collaboration with more municipal governments in Japan and Indonesia."

- Encyclopedic review update: Co incidentally Draft:D-Agree had come under my observation on 22nd June when I was searching some thing for Dyk, just till today's review I thought article being too technical for me I requested another technical Dyk participant for review notability chances for the draft and they expressed that not their area of work that made me think the topic much more difficult (That happened because main contributing author is technical). But when I re reviewed just now it my self on main contributor's request topic for encyclopedic purposes is not much technical needs just breif rewriting.
- I have segregated Municipal corporation reports and Municipal semi advertorials in external link section being primary sources. May be those can be deleted if necessary.
- There is at least one research paper in a journal, reports by 2 United Nations agencies and 1–1 independent news paper reports in 2 Japanese news papers namely The Asahi Shimbun, CNET make the topic encyclopedic point of view notable and very much suitable as stub article.
- I will not recommend AfC draftification since usually AfCs will not pass a stub article.
- If at all users are not comfortable and wish to delete then userify it in main contributor's user space. I will help them for achieving comfortable stub status. It might take take me a week or so to complete the task looking at other tasks in my hand.

- @Biogeographist As my last Comment : More than 30 computer and social science researchers has been involved in foundations, development, and application of D-Agree and collagree for a period of 10 years and you still calling that it doesn't indicate notability.
- For instance, see the author list of paper bellow which published in a good journal, how many author involved? Yes, it is ten author but still don't indicated notability.
- [38] Jawad Haqbeen (talk) 07:37, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- There is nothing in WP:GNG that says that the number of co-authors of a non-independent academic paper is a measure of notability on Wikipedia. As part of their jobs, academics are expected to publish about the work they have done. In general, there are countless academic papers about work that is not suitable to be the subject of stand-alone articles on Wikipedia; the work's non-notability by Wikipedia's standards does not mean that the work is not good or did not require considerable effort. Such an academic paper may in fact be valuable as a reference in another article but is not useful for determining notability here because of the publication's non-independent nature. Biogeographist (talk) 18:22, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
- Greetings @Biogeographist Please do not take otherwise, personally it is okay for me if suitable content gets merged in some article still, as of now, I wish to continue experimenting through some discussion processes since end of the day @Jawad Haqbeen and their institution research in " 'crowd sourcing dependent', software platform for public utility."

Relisting comment: Reconsider in the light of the many new sources presented.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 03:52, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Draftify: the article isn't ready for main space. Sentences like "D-Agree supports large-scale online human to human discourse with a focus to facilitate stakeholder's information-centric participation to reach consensus about urban planning and development decisions" suggest that a lot of re-writing is necessary. That sort of morass of buzzwords needs translation into straightforward English appropriate for an encyclopaedia. I would recommend proper draftification rather than moving to any individual's user-space because if the subject proves to be notable, I think collaborative authorship is more likely to create a good article than individual efforts. Elemimele (talk) 06:07, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: I reviewed available sources policies and inputs and updated the article again on 2022 July, 12 th and 13th. I wanted to refer discussion @ one more forum but I realized policies do not allow so until this discussion is closed, so I am adding my comment here itself.
- After reading policy details I had feeling, it would have been better to have placed a notability tag and article talk page discussion and followed WP:BEFORE process before this AfD. That would have given sufficient opportunity to update the article as stub properly and avoid confusion and miss–perception on part of various editors and Wikipedia:Follow the leader effect.
- WP:ATD states ".. If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. .." WP:ATD-E states ".. If an article on a notable topic severely fails in sourcing ( say the verifiability or neutral point of view policies), it may be reduced to a stub .."
- WP:SIGCOV states ".. 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.
- According to User:Biogeographist U.N. reports are reliable enough, but while considering WP:GNG he seems missing on statement of purpose mentioned in above given in WP:SIGCOV expects only as much content which would not necessitate original research to write a (stub) article. Is User:Biogeographist setting of higher bar of inclusion than what is necessary?
- Similarly there were few Japanese news sources which were press release dependent, but news article by Japan's 4th largest news media The Asahi Shimbun seems very much independent and not a press release.
- What remains in the article is which specific municipal corporations the software platform is implemented in. Though websites of respective Municipal corporations in Japan and Afghanistan are primary but reliable enough sources for verification that really software had been implemented there, then why we are insisting upon setting a higher bar of inclusion than what is necessary?
- Last but not least software detail needed in the article is what is software back end and what is user interface like. For that any research paper not written by institutions own professors/ researchers need to suffice. Whether we really need to setting a higher bar of inclusion than what is necessary?
- Last but not least, Expectations of User:Elemimele seems to calls in some copy edit of the stub and not necessarily a draftification. While updating the article I became more sure that article is not likely to get any more content than platform the software works and names of municipal corporations so sending it to draft is not likely to increase content in any exponential manner. The draft AfC process and users their too usually put higher bar of inclusion than what is necessary for just a stub article. I believe that it is fit as a stub article, if not then merge in some article, IMHO but not much point in sending to draft at present stage.
- I hope this comment may help other users to take a re–look into the article D-Agree.

- Stub class is not a consolation prize for a non-notable subject. And judging from the current state of the deletion discussion, it appears that sending the article to AfD was the right decision. I don't see any "confusion and misperception" here. Biogeographist (talk) 02:13, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. NACTOR requires "significant roles" in "multiple" programs, so Crane doesn't pass that threshold even assuming the Another World role is "significant". Searching for GNG-qualifying sources is difficult because he has such a common name, but what I found isn't quite enough to establish notability, in my view. There are a few articles available at Newspapers.com, but they appear to be either too brief to count as sigcov or too interview-ish to count as independent sources. I don't think a redirect would be helpful since he's played a number of roles, although I wouldn't oppose one. Glad to reconsider if someone can find sources I've missed. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:35, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete fails WP:GNG and WP:NLIST, the article itself is just links to loads of random, mostly non-notable events. We don't have qualifying articles for the national championships of sports in any other country, because they don't pass WP:GNG generally, and this is no exception. Also, seems like WP:FANCRUFT to me, as the topic is too niche. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:00, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep The article is not a stand-alone list, so it doesn't need to meet WP:NLIST standards. For WP:GNG, it meets Significant coverage with both the article & the sources describe the qualification criterion directly and in detail; Reliable sources as the information is taken from Japan Gymnastics Association, the one that organized the events, & Seiko Sportslink, a popular sport website in Japan; secondary source & independent of the subject as Seiko Sportslink belongs to Seiko Corporation & isn't affiliated with gymnastics organizations in Japan. NguyenDuyAnh1995 (talk) 09:32, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- All the sources listed are results tables- they show the event happened, but are not significant coverage about the event. Significant coverage would be prose in e.g. newspapers/websites about the qualification event. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:44, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material, as stated at WP:GNG with no mention of "prose". The source cited the criterion, as it is in criterion topic, & the detailed results, another topic, of each event are in another link. All are directly & in detailed to the topics each of them is related to. NguyenDuyAnh1995 (talk) 10:13, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- Neutral Reviews for games always include information about the things included with their various editions. A notable aspect to mention in the articles for the games.

Dream Focus 02:49, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - I'm surprised that this article has existed for so long, since as already noted it is such an obvious violation of WP:NOTCATALOG.

- Delete even with the exclusion of re-releases and limiting to editions
with extra materials or content
, WP:LISTCRITERIA are much too broad. Collector and limited editions arepromotional tools for the publisher, and items of value for collectors
, this matters to a very narrow audience and not encyclopedic — whether or not a game has such special editions matters little for their notablility, fame, or other significance (e.g. technical or artistic merit). Special editions on their own are not independently notable. Fails WP:NLIST, scope is so broad that it is unlikely to bediscussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources
other than as passing mentions, WP:SIGCOV not likely outside of actual directories or databases dedicated to this subject. — 2406:3003:2077:1E60:C998:20C6:8CCF:5730 (talk) 13:07, 18 July 2022 (UTC) - Delete Violation of WP:NOTCATALOGUE.

- Coverage does not have to be in English for something to be notable per WP:NOENG. English sources are preferred, but not required. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:30, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- Also, notability guidelines differ depending on the language's Wikipedia. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:31, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- We have very clear guidelines on how we treat sources in other languages than English in Wikipedia:Verifiability: all other things alike, we prefer to refer to sources in English, if they are of equal quality. But we don't require English sources, and AfD discussions don't require us to have them.
- We can't build an international encyclopedia only using sources in English. Most of the world is primarily, often only, described in other languages. Part of the magic of Wikipedia is that we can use those sources and make the information available in – for example – English. /Julle (talk) 22:45, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- We can still come to other conclusions, of course; the fact that an article exists in one language doesn't mean that the subject meets the requirements of English Wikipedia. But having glanced at the sources of Russian Wikipedia, I'm confident this one does. /Julle (talk) 22:47, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- To give another example, the main page is currently (through Today's Featured Picture) linking to Church of St. Peter and St. Paul, Vilnius, which is exclusively supported by sources in Lithuanian. But it's still something we want to put on the main page and point our readers to. /Julle (talk) 22:51, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect to author's article? Just Another Cringy Username (talk) 20:54, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to author. What we have here is entirely plot summary, maintenance-tagged for over a decade, so redirecting is a sensible solution. If someone wants to come by and build a full article or even a better-sourced stub later, they can do that. Honestly, I'm not excited about this solution either, since as far as I can tell this book has never been translated into English, so "False Mirrors" is a false title - no book exists by this author under this name. (There is no entry for it in the British Library or the Library of Congress. LoC does have the Russian title though: [39]). So I wouldn't argue against delete either. -- asilvering (talk) 02:17, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Just Another Cringy Username (talk) 17:01, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, notability is universal.
- We decide where we want to draw the line for notability and that might differ slightly from other language versions, of course, but the availability in English is not a factor. English Wikipedia is an encyclopedia about the entire world, written in English.
- I think you severely underestimate the amount of articles in other Wikipedias about literature that isn't translated into the language of the local Wikipedia. To take an example from my native language, w:sv:For the Time Being isn't just one of many articles about works of literature not translated into Swedish, but also given FA status. /Julle (talk) 18:21, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for your answer. I asked this in a previous AfD and nobody said anything. Next question: how well known is this piece in Sweden?

The result was delete. Consensus is all over the place as to a redirect but there does seem to be a consensus that there is insufficient significant coverage to warrant an article. I take it some sources were added late, such as a marriage to a more notable person, but that seems to not help his case, as notability isn't inherited, or married into. A for a redirect, there isn't a clear target, nor clear consensus, so that is a discussion that must be held elsewhere. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 18:52, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

- There are some mentions of him in The NZ Herald, Hampshire chronicle and the Daily Telegraph (the UK ones are definitely him - he played for those teams in those seasons per CricketArchive). I think we'd need way more access to news archives to show one way or the other whether there's all that much other coverage of Shutte - there might be some wider coverage of him playing for Hamilton in the Hawke Cup, for example. At least he doesn't have a super-common name I suppose.
- In the circumstances I think I tend towards suggesting a partial merge (adding a note) and redirect to List of Northern Districts representative cricketers, particularly as there is the prospect of more coverage so WP:ATD, with its usual points about preserving sources, history, attribution and so on, applies. Obviously if more can be found I'd consider a suggestion to keep the article, but I would need notifying if anything changes. Blue Square Thing (talk) 09:27, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- I saw the Telegraph source - it says something about him playing in Scotland (I think), so maybe there's more about him. If not, then redirect to the List of Northern Districts representative cricketers page per WP:ATD, etc. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 11:22, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

- Per WP:BASIC, multiple independent sources can be combined in lieu of one source to show significant coverage. This moving getting towards on that level of coverage and might suggest weakly keeping rather than firm deleting. Blue Square Thing (talk) 05:17, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- In addition to the routine match coverage, all we have on him is:
Also to receive the converted Northern Districts baggy cap for his first first-class appearance for the Association is Ryan Shutte. All-rounder Shutte a medium pace, left-hand bat plays in Hamilton having moved to New Zealand from South Africa 18 months ago.
andKing's 28-year-old fiance, Ryan Shutte, was on the cusp of selection for the Northern Districts cricket team but has put his career on the backburner to become her official manager.
- That isn't even close to WP:BASIC, and in any case WP:SPORTSCRIT #5 still applies. BilledMammal (talk) 05:25, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry, I got myself a bit garbled with the typing. I meant to write "this is moving towards getting onto that level...", not that it's there yet. Wrt BASIC - that's a bold move to suggest that it's lower in the hierarchy than an SNG. Part of the problem with all of this mess is that there are guidelines which contradict each other.

- Redirect to List of Northern Districts representative cricketers Played a handful of games in NZ and had some successes in non-notable cricket elsewhere.

- Delete or redirect. I agree with BilledMammal's source assessment above. Not nearly enough coverage to meet GNG or BASIC. JoelleJay (talk) 00:27, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I oppose a redirect here, as there are multiple valid targets that the reader might be searching for - they might be searching for him in relation to his cricket performance, or they might be searching for him in relation to his more notable wife. Choosing one risks confusing the reader, and as such per WP:R#DELETE #1 we should not have a redirect - the search function is more effective. BilledMammal (talk) 06:19, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- How on earth does a redirect make it "unreasonably difficult for users to locate similarly named articles via the search engine"? We can add a note to his entry at the ND cricketers list (as we've done many, many times before) which links to his wife. Dead easy. In fact, I'll go and do it now. I'll note that WP:R#KEEP 1, 2, 3 (because there'll be a link) and 5 all clearly apply. Not even close. Redirects are cheap. Cheaper and more efficient than deleting the article. Honestly, what on earth are we doing having to waste time and energy here - it's either a very weak keep or an obvious redirect. Given that there are sources about him, albeit sketchy ones, that move towards adequate sourcing we shouldn't even be thinking about deletion in the circumstances. Blue Square Thing (talk) 07:08, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- The relevant aspect is whether it will make it unreasonably difficult for the reader to find what they are searching for. See also WP:R#ASTONISH; a reader wanting to read about Ryan Shutte, husband of Joelle King, will be astonished to find themselves at a list of cricket players; it is both the wrong location, and a note is insufficient to make it clear to the reader why they have arrived at this list. BilledMammal (talk) 07:28, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- Lots of people have multiple interesting things about them. To define him as the husband of someone else rather than for the thing that makes him notable would be odd. I would think someone arriving at the list at point S would probably look in the list for the chap. And then they can read the note that makes everything clear and they can go, "oh, that's interesting, he played cricket as well. I never knew that". Which is sort of the point of an encyclopaedia Blue Square Thing (talk) 08:35, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

- he's not notable. And they could read the note, but that requires them to both be aware how Wikipedia notes work, and if they think they are in the wrong location they are unlikely to search for it in the first place - it doesn't meet the requirements of WP:R#ASTONISH, as it is not clear why the reader arrived there, nor is it necessarily the right place for them to arrive.

I turned up several articles written by Allore himself and an excerpt of the book, but not independent reviews. Considering how much non-independent coverage I have found, that is a surprise to me, so maybe there's something lurking...?

The Montreal Gazette published an excerpt from the book [41] and a review in Pop Sugar [42], and a Deadline article [43] confirming Netflix has bought the rights to the book, I think it's at least GNG.There is also a book by Jody Picoult with the same title, as the above sources showed.

It's discussed on a few true crime blogs, but I think the CBC and the Calgary paper are good enough, the Montreal paper really only helps prove GNG as it just reprints part of the book. Globe and Mail has an article here [47] and coverage in French in La Presse [48]. I think that's enough. Oaktree b (talk) 02:57, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete I was unable to find significant sources counting towards GNG other than databases. Per the Geographic guideline,
Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc. The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article. If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the feature can instead be included in a more general article on local geography. For example, a river island with no information available except name and location should probably be described in an article on the river

- Delete - Article fails to meet the relevant notability guideline. Per WP:GEO this is not a feature with sufficient coverage providing information beyond statistics and proof of existence. MaxnaCarta (talk) 23:12, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete this small baren rock is not even close to being notable. Wikipedia is not meant to be a comprehensive guide to navitagion, let alone to a comprehensive guide to navigation just in Massachusetts.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:45, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Of some 273 "matches" on Newspapers.com, none of them seem to indicate an actual "Alleghany Rock": they are all stuff like "Allegheny" and "Rock Island" being two adjacent clauses in a sentence, or a rock concert scheduled in Alleghany, or something similar to that. I do not see a whole lot of evidence that this is a thing that really exists. jp×g 22:05, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
