- Delete I’d love to agree with you, because they seem really interesting, but… NCORP not NMUSIC is the right standard to judge them on, and everything I can see in the article is either passing coverage, or basic business process (the sale to new owners) coverage… but nothing giving any sort of extended coverage of the company itself. It’s all “band x signs to Rottweiler Records” and then a ton about band x, but nothing about the company. So weirdly they would count for the band’s notability, but not the company’s.

- Redirect to Port_Harcourt#Education. I just spent a lot of time on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Starlets Academy and this one is in the same vein, so to keep it short this doesn't meet WP:NORG either but we usually redirect non notable schools where possible. The redirect target has an appropriate section, although that section needs work, and probably explains why we have these unwriteable stubs. The page links secondary schools to a list of Port Harcourt schools with an inclusion criterion that schools must have a page to be on the list. The criterion is wrong and should be changed, or perhaps just merged back into the parent page. Port Harcourt should discuss the local schools, and if they ar enot due for a mention there, then they are not notable for an article either. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:57, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- This secondary school has no single reliable source. Wikipedia is not Google. The school already has a map and no one even knows if it's a new school to verify. They are other school notable which ain't on wikipedia. I believe we should focus our energy on that than non notable schools. No point redirecting as school might be notable in the future as well. Gabriel-> Hello. 11:12, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- The purpose of the redirect is not to keep non notable information, but because it is very plausible that someone would seek information on the school. Being non notable, they should be taken to a page that meets their information need. That is the Port Harcourt page, which has an education section. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:49, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting. This school (and no primary or secondary schools) are listed at the suggested redirect target article but there is a link to List of schools in Port Harcourt. Would this be a more appropriate target article if there is an ATD?

- Comment The problem with List of schools in Port Harcourt is that my attempt to make that a list of all schools in Port Harcourt was reverted. If this is redirected, it will be removed from that list, and then we will be off to RfD. That action pretty much scuppers my attempts at a redirect. I think that is wrong, and the only way forward I could see would be to expand the education section at Port_Harcourt#Education (and perhaps nominate the list of schools for deletion, as I don't see what purpose it would then serve). But to do that, I think I would need sourcing that describes Port Harcourt education and I have nothing. As such, I expect the deletes will have it here. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:17, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

This article was recently copied over from simple:Battle of Nicosia Airport spun off from Military operations during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, but discussion at Talk:1974 Nicosia airport battle and my own check of available reliable sources have not uncovered sources with significant coverage. I'd be thrilled if anyone could prove me incorrect, but without that I'd propose re-merging this article and covering the topic in a paragraph or two, emulating the references used now in the article.

- Also to clarify the article has over 20 references ranging from journals, to books to news articles, it by more than far is in compliance with wikis notability guidelines, there are a few claims which are unreferenced but I am currently working on adding sources for them too (I didnt make the article so), doubt that warrants article deletion though.

- Comment. There are no reliable sources calling the events at Nicosia Airport during the day of the Military operations during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus#23 July 1974, the "Battle of Nicosia Airport". It is WP:OR by a single editor despite protests from editors in the WP:MILHIST project. They have ignored and/or reverted any attempt to address this issue (and are still edit warring).
- The information about the event is already in the Military operations during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus#23 July 1974, and as the redirect of "Battle of Nicosia Airport" is really OR, I think it is more of a delete (and salt) than a merge. Aszx5000 (talk) 10:43, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Most sources in that page indicate both the severity and name the battle of the airport yet two users seem to not only disregard that, are also straight up lying about whats written.
- Cyprus mail article- "The battle for Nicosia airport wasn’t – objectively speaking – the bloodiest of the many dark events that took place exactly 50 years ago, but it may have been the most consequential."
- Reuters article- "this airport was the theatre of some of the fiercest battles between Greek Cypriot troops and an invading Turkish army in 1974"
- Im seriously confused as to why you guys are stiring up such a problem with an article that has more than ample sources, if we compare articles with the same events, such as Battle of Paitilla Airport, the sources are not only very few, but oddly enough its still called "Battle of Paitilla Airport" even though I cant see any of the 5 sources stating that name clearly. ShovelandSpade (talk) 15:32, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- If The Guardian says that there was a pitched "battle" between rioters and police in Trafalgar Square, that does not mean that we create an article for the Battle of Trafalgar Square. Aszx5000 (talk) 15:44, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Read what im saying and stop going off on a tangent. As youve displayed here, youre moving the goalposts as soon as you see that you are wrong. Also I dont know if youre playing dumb or trolling but what is the difference between "Battle of Nicosia airport" and "1974 Nicosia airport battle"?

- Keep Article has been vastly improved since it was brought over by the user from simple wiki, enough sources from both journals and newspaper articles cover the intensity and notability issue, any other issues within the article are likely fixable. If it was, instead of delete it should be placed in the sandbox so that the users that still have an issue can fix it.

- British Bakeries (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)
This article cites 2 sources, both of which are trival. One is just a directory listing on the website of the town the company was located in, and the other is a single news article about a single incident of purely local interest. A google search for the company name results in nothing relevant except some AI generated content that appears to be drawn from this article and a couple seemingly-defunct directory listings. The company's website fails DNS. The company fails notability now, and since it doesn't appear to be in business any more the chances of it satisfying the notability criteria in the future seem slim.

- Delete. Apparently British Bakeries was a subsidiary of Rank Hovis McDougall which was responsible for their various flour/bread products (including Hovis and Mother's Pride); presumably they came under Premier Foods when Premier acquired RHM in 2007. In 2014 Hovis was spun out of Premier to become its own company; it's unclear whether British Bakeries continued to exist after this. If either the RHM or Premier articles mentioned it, British Bakeries could redirect there, but neither does which suggests it's really not that important.

1. It was moved from draft space to article space before it was reviewed and made live by the creator of the page
2. It was moved to draft space by other editors due to promotional tone, it seemed as it was written by someone closely connected to the subject
3. It was proposed for deletion and the final decision was to keep. However, the keep voters: 1 was a new account created just for this debate only (seems like it and it was an open IP, one was an editor banned for sock-puppetry)
4. There is someone constantly removing a section that is a bit negative about the subject
All this makes me believe that this page is being managed by someone closely connected to the subject. Additionally, i don't believe the subject is notable and most of the references are PRs and he is constantly self-promoting on the internet. WikiProCreate (talk) 13:49, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

WP:BLP of a musician, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC.
The attempted notability claims here are "started a record label", "was a member of musical ensembles" and "was artistic director of a music festival", none of which are automatic notability freebies in the absence of WP:GNG-worthy media coverage about them and their work -- but while this was tagged for PROD a few days ago as being completely unsourced, it was then deprodded by an editor who added primary sources (mainly content self-published by Laughton himself and/or organizations directly affiliated with him) rather than reliable or GNG-building ones.
It's also a clear conflict of interest, as the article was first created by the subject himself under his own name.

The series itself may also pass GNG: it was released as Wicca, only called Sweep in the US, under which there is an entire journal article discussing the series as a whole and its themes (doi:10.1007/s10583-007-9058-).

Almost all sources provided are primary, and coverage from secondary reliable sources is clearly lacking (in order to pass WP:NORGANISATION).

Article needs to have some more support for their role in the global glycine market -- it's verifiable (see, e.g., [5]) but notability is from the TikTok incident which continues to be reported on.

- Weak Delete This is entirely false. First, I have provided numerous articles from major news outlets on the talk page of Karima Gouit [6]. Second, she is a popular public figure with almost 10 million combined followers across all her platforms. I have listed multiple sources on the talk page from outlets that are recognized as reliable for non-academic matters WP:GNG, such as Le360 and Actu-Maroc.
- Here are a few examples for you, that are of her "amazigh" work, not anything more than that, exactly what Skitash has been avoiding leading to this:

- More sources can easily be found if you search in French, Amazigh, or Arabic. This meets the criteria. Just because you couldn’t find much, I raised the matter of reworking the page to reflect her current popularity, as she is no longer mainly known for being a talent show contestant, but for her many songs and acting roles. These can be easily cited from the sites I mentioned. However, you dismissed it entirely, focusing solely on the argument over "NOT" including the translation of her name in Tamazight, which led you to try and remove her page, again, all because of the language she primarily speaks and uses in her songs. Still, I won't talk about your behavior on matters relating to this ethnic group wiki page as it's not of the subject. TahaKahi (talk) 06:18, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
Weak Delete I don't think it's an slam-dunk delete as I think it's fairly close, but that's the side I fall on. TahaKahi, you have not helped the case for her article at all - things like social media follower numbers are not relevant and many of these sources are really fleeting mentions. And if you didn't want to talk about Skitash's "alleged" behavior, then you don't talk about it at all; making a point to announce that you're not going to talk about it is literally talking about it, and WP:ASPERSIONS are supposed to be avoided. I think you're a good faith editor, but I don't believe that you really grasp the objections that several people have brought up. Have you considered refocusing on Amazigh Wikipedia? It has fewer than 3,000 articles, so it sorely needs help more than English Wikipedia does. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 09:05, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Sadly, I’m not the most refined in writing in Tifinagh script, so I chose to focus on the English Wikipedia instead, as I major in English. My goal is to help refine a few subjects related to the Amazigh and revive the related WikiProject. As far as I see it, I will try to proceed more slowly with these topics, working carefully to ensure that everything is properly referenced from academic sources, especially when it comes to historical matters of the Amazigh.I’m currently working on a document to identify pages that are missing citations. I plan to rework these articles by adding proper citations, and once I feel it’s enough, I’ll begin drafting them. Unfortunately, I’ve been struggling with the Karima Gouit article, as, while she is popular, Maghrebi news outlets often write brief articles. Though such articles can be cited, they don’t always provide enough substantial information for a well-supported article.Beyond that, I’ve been trying to act in a more respectful manner and listen to the issues raised by Skitash. However, he has escalated a simple topic into a report on [7] and of course deletion of the page. This makes me feel that his behavior is not entirely in good faith. Nevertheless, I apologize if I come off as confrontational. It’s just confusing to me why this topic is being so overcomplicated for something so minor. TahaKahi (talk) 09:19, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

- Not sure what "listed as a stub" means, that doesn't make a page notable. None of the sources added are significant coverage. All cemeteries were established at some point, a source providing that date and little else is not a basis for notability. Reywas92Talk 04:15, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

Originally this was a cemetery for St. Mary Mother of God Parish, established in 1845 at 725 Fifth St. NW. This was a working-class cemetery first for German butchers, bakers and others, later for Italians who were stonecutters and laborers. The oldest gravestone is dated Nov. 16, 1862."

Please, instead of making false claims about the delete votes, write better sourced articles and articles about notable subjects instead. Fram (talk) 14:51, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Just because something is old does not mean it's "historic", and even if something is characterized as such, that does not make it inherently notable or needing a standalone article – this is not on even the local historic inventory. It could be covered through Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Washington#Cemeteries, or List_of_cemeteries_in_the_United_States#District_of_Columbia could also be split to its own list and include this and others without substantive coverage.

- Illinois's 1st House of Representatives district (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)
Delete or Merge into Illinois House of Representatives and appropriate elections articles. Unlike other electoral districts in Illinois or sub-national electoral districts in other countries, I do not believe individual state legislative districts in Illinois meet the standards of WP:GNG.
These are not like sub-national ridings in the United Kingdom or Canada, counties in the United States, in which there are political groups organized around district geography. They are not like wards in Chicago in which there are longstanding cultural associations or institutions independent of electoral politics.
Unlike congressional districts in Illinois, they do not elect Democratic or Republican committee-persons to any partisan body nor is there a substantial body of independent coverage regarding even their demographic characteristics.
The districts themselves are rarely written about. The "Representative district history" sections are a history of apportionment of districts generally as evidenced by the fact that all of the articles have identical excerpts. The more modern coverage that does exist is secondary to gerrymandering allegations (and the subsequent lawsuits) or the description of an election. While a subject of an article does not need to be the main topic to be significant coverage, it does need to be more than trivial. TLDR: These districts are not notable due to a lack of substantial, independent coverage just because similar enough entities might be. Mpen320 (talk) 15:16, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

Unlike congressional districts in Illinois, they do not elect Democratic or Republican committee-persons to any partisan body
- do they not elect members to the Illinois House of Representatives (Democratic or Republican) in partisan elections? AusLondonder (talk) 16:15, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Clarification. I was referring to the respective State Central Committees of the major parties [10]. Those offices are elected/selected from congressional districts. It is just another way that those districts are covered that state legislative districts are not covered.--Mpen320 (talk) 17:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Just because something isn't covered or has full articles doesn't disqualify it from an article. Other states have articles for every senate and legislature (or equivalent) district; just because Illinois does not (likely because many of them are small urban districts) doesn't mean we TNT every article that has been created, and it is undeniably partisan. Nate • (chatter) 16:44, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment. This is just pointing out other stuff exists on Wikipedia. I also acknowledge legislative districts in other states could very well meet WP:GNG. Your remark about small, urban districts, well these are all small, urban districts with no significant coverage or independent coverage. Also, I have no idea where you are getting that I am being partisan. It's an unfair allegation.--Mpen320 (talk) 17:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- I was referring to the districts, not your views. Nate • (chatter) 22:43, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep Not sure any of the reasons listed qualify this article for deletion. These electoral districts have been around for a long time and are historical. Lima Bean Farmer (talk) 23:57, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Reply. If they are so historically important, then why has no one been able to find any sort of independent, significant coverage of the districts? It exists for congressional districts. I could find a bunch of coverage on the creation/gerrymander of Illinois's 13th congressional district. I can find plenty of independent, significant coverage of Chicago wards such as Chicago's 11th ward (notably Ward by Ward by David K. Fremond. So why not these if they meet the barrier for significant, independent coverage? The fact that most districts have been around since no earlier than the Cutback Amendment in the early 1980s, is not in of its self meet WP:GNG. It is a classic case of existence does not mean notability.

Out of the 21 references listed on the page this is the only reference that may be notable but I cannot read it so not sure. The rest fall under WP:NEWSORGINDIA or are otherwise unreliable.

- The references that you state (which I am assuming are the ones on the page) are all unreliable and fall under WP:NEWSORGINDIA.

- That is a perspective to have. However, being usable does not mean it can be used to establish notability. That is also the reason why I did not discredit these simply for being from the TOI. The many RfCs have concluded that the TOI needs additional consideration to determine if if it reliable for that specific reference. I checked them all and these are churnalism and promotional. If you want to provide some that you feel can be used to establish notability, I will have a look and withdraw the nomination if they are usable to establish notability. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:00, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Nothing really happened in 1854 in relation to animation. The two listed events are war photography and early (but not the first) instanteneous photographs, leaving us with two births, of someone who was much later influential on animation through his cartoons, and someone who is known as an actress but was one of many people with a magic lantern show.

Simply put, animation as we now know it did not exist in 1854, and this article is misinformation. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 22:41, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Agree with User:Oaktree b that WP:AUTHOR is the relevant standard, and that she meets criteria #3 - her recent book is the "primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews", including a starred review in Kirkus, Washington Post, The Guardian, another review in The Guardian, Sydney Morning Herald, and The New Statesman. She also meets criteria #1 - her work as a journalist is widely cited. There are a lot of Google Books results for her name.

Only trivial, interviews, etc with no deep real media focus on the Julia. The best piece from ARTnews has this:
- “Clay,” she says, “gives me the freedom to create something intense, raw, over the top. It has allowed me to pile things up, break things down, play, and make mistakes.” Kunin loves the immediacy of a material that is “as basic as mud,” she points out. “I am addicted to the unpredictability and iridescence of the glazes I’m using as well as the range of their colors and their psychedelic qualities.”
- Kunin grew up in Vermont in the ‘70s..... Later, she says, she rejected clay as a dull brown “craft” material but returned to it in 2003. She started exploring female sexuality and the body and began using octopuses for more metaphorical imagery. Frustrated by a series in cast glass, “I happened on an exhibit by the Chinese artist Ah Xian, who creates busts painted in traditional Chinese porcelain patterns from Jingdezhen, China.

- Keep WP:NPOL is *not* a guideline that can be failed, that is, if a subject does not satisfy the criteria it does not mean they are not notable for Wikipedia. NPOL is an inclusive measure, not exclusionary. NPOL sits separately from the GNG because it provides "presumed notability" - the idea being that a person elected to office is generally likely to have WP:SIGCOV in reliable sources.

None of the (non primary) sources here even mention the documentary, they're all on La Légende des seigneurs assassins (which this is a documentary about the making of??? why would someone make an article on the making of film and not the actual main film???). Even with that all the sources here are quite regional French sources under what is required from NFILM, so I have no clue if that other film is notable (could be, just judging off what's in the page). This was deleted on frwiki 3 years ago; I think this and several related articles (Thierry Mauvignier, Dylan Besseau, Guillaume Gevart) may have some promotional stuff going on here and on simple wikipedia but it is difficult to tell what exactly is happening here.

Not notable per WP:MUSICBIO, she released one EP which didn't chart, and I can't find significant coverage of her or the EP in reliable sources in English or Chinese. Not notable per WP:NACTOR, as her only lead role was in the film Dreamtrips, and I can't find SIGCOV of the film or her as an actress in reliable sources, apart from that it was screened at a notable festival. In the last AFD, two editors said that it was in the Hong Kong Film Archive, but I can't find it there when searching for 夢之旅. I couldn't find any coverage of her as a radio presenter, apart from sparse coverage that she won the RTHK disk jockey competition.

Articles about albums, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NALBUMS. As usual, Wikipedia's approach to albums used to extend an automatic presumption of notability to any album that was recorded by a notable artist regardless of sourcing or the lack thereof, in the name of completionist directoryism -- but that's long since been deprecated, and an album now has to have a meaningful notability claim (chart success, notable music awards, a significant volume of coverage and analysis about it, etc.) and WP:GNG-worthy sourcing to support it.
But none of these three albums are making any notability claim above and beyond "this is an album that exists", two of the three are completely unreferenced, and the one that does have references doesn't have good ones: it's citing one review in an unreliable source, and one "Billboard chart history" that lists no actual chart positions and is present only to footnote a release date that it doesn't actually support rather than any charting claims.
As always, I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with much more expertise in Christian music than I've got can find the right kind of sourcing to salvage them, but simply existing isn't "inherently" notable enough to exempt an album from having to pass GNG.

In consideration of precedent and consistency, though, identifying articles of the same nature that have been established and continue to exist on Wikipedia may provide extremely important insight into the general concept of notability, levels of notability (what's notable: international, national, regional, state, provincial?), and whether or not a level and type of article should be on Wikipedia”

- Delete - The relevant subject specific deletion guidelines are WP:NCORP. Per WP:SIRS we need multiple reliable secondary sources independent of the subject that contain significant coverage of the subject at WP:CORPDEPTH. There are no such sources in the article. Anything with depth is from the company themselves, so not independent. Other sources that mention them, e.g. in the context of a National Trust press release [30] do not contain CORPDEPTH (and that is withoout consideration of whether a press release is independent). My searches have not found anything further, and no others have been presented at AfD. This does not meet WP:NCORP. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 08:06, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep coverage isn’t great but without too much searching I found this from The Independent, this Google book snippet and this from an independent (hostile) source. The article itself is well-written, neutral and discusses the society’s views by (correctly) referencing its own statements. Mccapra (talk) 22:13, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- That piece by The Independent is cited in the article, but it suffers from the same issue as the book excerpt you linked: the coverage isn't in-depth. A lot of failed political candidates and local quacks would have their own articles if mere mentions sufficed. Yue🌙 01:28, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep On no other platform (pardon the pun), could I imagine defending (and again!) The Stalin Society, but here goes. So the archive of the Weekly Worker (weekly newspaper of the CPGB) turns up quite an amount of material (eg Stalin Society v CPGB). The Encyclopedia of British and Irish Political Organizations: Parties, Groups and Movements of the 20th Century p.167 has a small entry on the Society. Johann Hari had a full page, 800 word piece from 2002 in the New Statesman: "Comrades up in arms" 6 October 2002, Vol. 131 Issue 4591, p28. This 2014 piece "Void Pasts and Marginal Presents: On Nostalgia and Obsolete Futures in the Republic of Georgia" from Slavic Review has multiple mentions and discussions of the Stalin Society in Georgia. Pasess the WP:GNG, WP:NEXIST. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 14:43, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- I disagree with the reliability and notability of some of the sources you brought up.
- The Weekly Worker is not the paper of the CPGB; it is the paper of an offshoot of an offshoot (NCP) of the CPGB, the CPGB-PCC. Those Wikipedia articles themselves lack significant coverage from reliable sources. A supermajority of the sources in both articles are from the CPGB-PCC or its sister organisations praising the CPGB-PCC.
- I am not surprised that the "Encyclopedia of British and Irish Political Organizations" contains a mention of the Stalin Society. But how is that mention significant or notable? I would argue that is not, given it is merely a brief mention.
- Admittedly a weaker rebuttal with this final point, but I would contend that, although a journalist covered the organisation in detail, there is still no obvious point of notability given in this Wikipedia article or otherwise. What has the Society done?
- Some of the previous editors of this Wikipedia article seem to believe that the British Stalin Society is the same Stalin Society in every other country. Do reliable sources make this connection? Is the Georgian and Bangladeshi Stalin Societies, for example, under the British one? Or are they merely inspired?

- Delete. Page does not satisfy the notability guidelines for organization. Poor sources on the page with no significant coverage. Fails WP:NSCHOOL. RangersRus (talk) 11:40, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. I've expanded the article by adding several references, including to a fairly in-depth profile in the Orlando Sentinel, and to a book by a sociologist who describes the emergence of the university and calls it a "milestone". Notability is arguably established, and even if it isn't, more references with nontrivial material can be found. One of the primary purposes of notability guidelines is to ensure that there is sufficient material to create an informative article, and there is clearly enough published material on this university (even though one might wish for more so that an even meatier article would be possible). For further expansion, there just needs to be effort put in to tap that material and integrate it into the article. --Presearch (talk) 23:19, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
- Have you noted that this "fairly in-depth profile" has no author? So, no — an advertorial (churnalism) in a local newspaper does NOT add toward notability.
Notability is arguably established, and even if it isn't, more references with nontrivial material can be found
This article is at AfD because I (and others) believe that notability is not established and I am happy to see you accept that. Regrettably, we cannot speculate about sourcing esp. that we are discussing an organization in USA and not, say, Sudan! Further, WP:NEXIST cautions,However, once an article's notability has been challenged, merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially if time passes and actual proof does not surface.
- It's not my case that no sources exist — 1 and 2 from among the very few hits in Newspapers.com — but that they are trivial and/or they are routine run-of-the-mill coverage. TrangaBellam (talk) 07:23, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
- I've added several more sources, all with named authors, and arguably all from reliable sources. All of these provide "more than a trivial mention," and in some cases the university was indeed "the main topic of the source material", so each of these arguably contributes "significant coverage" for meeting general notability (WP:GNG)
- Regarding the Orlando Sentinel article, that may now be moot, but it's worth noting that the newspaper is reputable, and the userfied (non-Wikipedia) essay on "churnalism" acknowledges that "If a reliable source decides to fact check a press release and write a story about it, it then meets the definition of coming from a reliable source" - that raises the question of whether an absence of named author is enough grounds to treat this article as unreliable when it's from an otherwise reputable source (have you found any duplicate versions of the same material on numerous sites?). (By the way, friend, I suspect you know that a statement that something "is arguably established" is different than stating that it is "not established") --Presearch (talk) 01:14, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
- "News India Times" is not even a RS in all probabilities. And, a couple of articles in India Abroad — a now-defunct publication aimed exclusively at the Indian diaspora with a peak circulation of ~ thirty thousand — do not make the entity wiki-notable; if anything, such meager coverage in such a niche publication only goes to demonstrate the non-notability.
- Further, NCORP has a higher standard for sources to contribute toward notability. This is due to the levels of (undisclosed; see WP:TOI) paid-coverage frequently engaged in by business entities. So, we look for sources that do not mechanically reproduce what the organization says and show some critical engagement. TrangaBellam (talk) 05:42, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

Getting this out of the way: the article is huge, but FANDOM pages are also huge, that doesn't have anything to do with a character's notability. In this case, Ryo does not appear notable, and the article only reinforces how Dan Hibiki, the character who is a parody of him, is probably notable while Ryo is not. What is not primary-sourced development information or plot summary is sourced entirely to trivial mentions or listicles that mention him alongside all other characters, only indicating KOF characters are notable as a group.

- In case it helps, I added several new articles focused around him just now.Tintor2 (talk) 22:01, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: There are many articles on SNK characters (List of The King of Fighters characters), where I would struggle with notability. The recent additions don't show a significant change in notability. I think covering the character in an article together with SNK's other character would be more useful. IgelRM (talk) 20:18, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
- 'Comment After talking with other users, I tried cleaning up the article by removing reviews and pointless revisions. Most of thecurrent articles are primarily focused on the characters and games narrative with the exception of his Mr. Karate alterego which is more rare so I used few previews for that. Furthermore, I have just found that the internet meme was far more popular worldwide and expanded on it. I also made sure to keep the only important Fatal Fury parts as Ryo's inclusion in FFSpecial is famous for inspiring the KOF franchise as well as guest characters. Same with his role in kof as I only placed articles focused on him and or team. I also changed the commentary of Dan Hibiki and how the company reacted to Dan's character by creating another parody character.Tintor2 (talk) 17:32, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
- Merge, for now. There's definitely some potential for discussion regarding Ryo here, and I do feel there is some ground where establishing him helps Dan's article. But many of the sources I've looked through here just aren't saying anything or really next to anything and are mostly reviews. While I recognize the monumental effort I feel it needs a far tighter scope and a near nuke to boil down what's actually said about the character.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 14:47, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not against any removal of content but I think the current article passes the rule of best three:
- The internet meme that has been so popular that has been part of an official mobile game.
- Ryo is the first guest character in gaming history, inspiring The King of Fighters '94.
- Dan Hibiki.
There is also all those other articles that aren't focused about gameplay or story, but critcize it like how Ryo's age makes no sense in Fatal Fury Special, his ridiculously unfiting built appearance from KOFXV, his rivalry appeal with Geese from XIV, etc. I agree content can be removed but deletion seems sudden.Tintor2 (talk) 21:54, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- But what three sources do you feel hold up the article? It's not just concepts, but the sources themselves. So many of the things here don't even mention the character much or in passing, and those that do aren't saying really much at all. While I'm not saying there isn't something here, it's hard to see that in light of all this. So if you had to start from zero, what fistful of sources would you use as examples of it being notable?--Kung Fu Man (talk) 07:36, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, asilvering (talk) 21:48, 23 September 2024 (UTC)- '''Comment''' I rearranged the reception and removed most articles that are useless. There is only one review in a comparison the character has with Street Fighter in reception. The only paragraph that abuses a bit retrospectives is the small one of the middleaged persona. The Fatal Fury and KOF feature articles dedicated to the character they criticize his presentation, constant similarities with Ryu from Street Fighter, moves or role in the series. Tintor2 (talk) 22:05, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment I agree that most of the notability is around Dan Hibiki and the feud between game studios. There is some borderline coverage for the character outside that. I am torn because it feels mostly like context for why the character became the subject of the more notable parody in Dan. But I could be convinced to keep the page to provide a richer context of this as a separate character. Either way, this article needs a serious clean-up due to weight. Shooterwalker (talk) 19:23, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

PRTimes = press release reprint, so fails requirement for being independent (and even then what I see there would fail SIGCOV, those are just some passing mentions in list). Blog = well, blogs are not reliable. gamesradar - one paragraph, very borderline SIGCOV, just a comment on how his apperance was kept a secret as a marketing gimmick for one game at some point. The last source translates very badly, seems like some rambling gibberish - how is this reliable and SIGCOV? I am sorry, I want to see this kept, but those are not three best sources, they seem like three worst sources.

- Comment I went ahead following user's comments and trimmed the reception into the most important parts.

- It was deprecated in May when I closed the RfC deprecating it. The deprecation was not limited to May 2024 forward and my understanding is that deprecation is retroactive/applies to any of the source's articles unless otherwise stated (for example, the New York Post deprecation is limited to a particular time period), so we can't consider any articles from the source. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:51, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

On Wikipedia, "notability" has a specific meaning, that a topic has received in depth coverage. Being cited by Wikipedia or other sources does not establish notability. voorts (talk/contributions) 17:27, 2 October 2024 (UTC)- It is really interesting this Notability thing. I just found this guide Wikipedia:WikiProject Newspapers/Notability, which give us a slighty different approach to a news site like Cibercuba and specificcally address the issue at the core of this discussion, and I quote:
- "Newspapers can have a significant impact on the areas they serve, and in representing those areas to the wider world. Because its impact may be felt over a long period of time, a newspaper may be very significant, without attracting the kind of general review in other publications that would most handily fulfill Wikipedia's general notability guideline.... Additionally, while newspapers and magazines may review and critique other works of non-fiction (books, documentaries, scholarly works) it is not customary for newspapers themselves to receive the sort of reviews and critiques that often inform notability in other non-fiction realms."
- Although there are some points to consideer that are not available about Cibercuba, being and independent (censored) organization in Cuba, there are specific points that are relevant to them, among them:
- - It is referred to in one or more strong reliable sources as the newspaper of record for a certain locale, in the reputational (i.e., subjective) sense.
- - Its content is or has been frequently syndicated or republished in other reliable sources
- - Its articles are repeatedly cited (or its scoops frequently credited) by other reliable sources
- In any case I also found some articles in other media that gives specific coveraga to issues where Cibercuba team were the actual news:
- [61]https://www.14ymedio.com/internacional/mariela-castro-reporteros-conferencia-espana_1_1052659.html

- I even found a Master thesis in an Spain university that it is focused in compare Cibercuba and Cubadebate (one official/goverment funded news organization):
- Communication of risk and crisis in the digital press from the informative treatment: A study of the fire in the largest fuel depot in Cuba in the Cubadebate and Cibercuba media

- - Interview of the TV program of America Teve dedicated in exclusive to some espionage documents revealed by Cibercuba, with two of their journalists: [75]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mf6xo3z9iI
- - Another interview of a Cibercuba journalist about corruption in a Cuban medical organization: [76]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCzzadyr5l8&t=49s

This is the opinion of some people in the WikiProject that wrote that essay, and it's an opinion that I happen to disagree with. Notable newspapers are regularly written about in nonfiction books, magazines, other newspapers, etc. Relying on another newspaper's reporting or interviewing its journalists about a story or reporting on a story that the outlet broke are not, however, secondary, independent, reliable sources. Additionally, the US embassy, the Cuban government, and official Cuban media/outlets loyal to the Cuban state are not reliable sources. Reliable sources are sources with a reputation for fact checking that have editorial guidelines. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:03, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. A news web site with millions monthly pageviews Similarweb, a verified Facebook page with 3.5 million followers CiberCuba FB page, with 260K indexed pages in Google, more that 10 years producing news, where THE two US presidential candidates where interviewed in 2020 Donald Trump interview, Joe Biden interview, as well as US senantors, mayors and other tp level politicians, with their news cited by the thousands in international media, including NY Times, BBC, France 24, Washignton Post, Telemundo and many others (see links above), with hundreds of citations in Wikipedia (where coincidentally, some pages were created in great part based on references from CiberCuba), with citations in the US state department and other .GOV sites its by all standards Notable. As Dan Rather said: “The best journalists are not part of the story; they are observers who gather facts and relay them.”.

- Hello. To provide some context, I plan on creating articles for Jordanian clubs that have participated in the Jordanian Second Division League, to which Deir Alla have in 2022. I set this as my limit, given that third-tier clubs and above participate in the Jordan FA Cup and there are no actively fourth-tier teams that participate in the national cup, unlike in some other countries. I don't plan on creating articles of teams that have only played in the fourth tier (i.e. the Jordanian Third Division League), as they are not notable enough to be discussed as an article.

She has a good career, but I am not convinced she is notable as yet. Page was tagged for notability by User:Ipigott on Oct 3 and I draftified it on Oct 4. Tags removed and page moved to mainspace on Oct 7; claim by original author that she is notable, with no further explanation, attempt to meet any of WP:NPROF or reach concensus. Only possible notability claim is as a co-author of an Ig-nobel prize paper. I am not sure if we consider that enough. Ldm1954 (talk) 02:23, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

- Comment. Notability seems possible. Her CV lists multiple news stories (last 2 pages) that might prove notability. Two I pulled out quickly: Science article covering her research and written summary from an audio/radio interview on public radio. She's also an elected fellow of American Association for the Advancement of Science and has an article explaining why she was elected to AAAS on EurekAlert but originally posted on Kent University's site, but not self written. She is an Ig Nobel Prize Winner and last author usually conveys a larger part in the paper (although she isn't the corresponding author).

- Keep. I think Fellow of the AAAS is enough for WP:PROF#C3, her citations are at least enough to make a case for #C1, the IgNobel may not be a major award but it carries a lot of publicity, and she's had a fair amount of other publicity for her work: along with the sources listed above, here are a couple more in Smithsonian and Scientific American. Bad nomination and bad draftification, as many of these signs and sources for notability were already present in the draftified version. It was very stubby but not badly sourced for what it was. You'll be lucky if the article author persists in contributing here rather than getting bitten by your bad nomination piled onto a bad draftification and leaving the project forever. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:57, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- I strongly disagree about Fellow of AAAS, that is not one that should ever count towards #C3. They elect ~500 per year from among people who have been paying dues. I also strongly disagree about her citations, by comparison to others in her field they are low - I checked, did you? She is in a medium citation field, and most of her well cited papers have more than 5 authors (sometimes far more) with her somewhere in the middle.
- If you feel the Ignobel is major, then OK, that is your opinion but I do not particularly considering the topic. Some of the Ignobel papers are real science, some are a joke and not WP:Sustained. This one is a joke. Ldm1954 (talk) 10:16, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. It's only on the 53rd page of Google Scholar results for the pinyin version of the article subject that you start academic papers without the pinyin in the title. Almost all of them are inaccessible to me, but from what is accessible, it seems there is a lot of in-depth research. For example, this Korean paper [79][80] is a 30+ page article analyzing the location from a Buddhist perspective and appears in an accredited journal indexed by the Korean Studies Information Service System and DBpia, both of which are used by western research libraries (e.g. [81] [82] from the University of Toronto). Can you explain why your BEFORE research led you to conclude that literally 100s of Chinese scholarly articles with the subject in the title actually barely mention the subject? Although the article would obviously be improved by citations, WP:NEXIST seems to obviously apply here. Perhaps reaching out to editors who are more familiar with and have access to Chinese-language sources would be helpful (e.g. WP:CHINA) instead of deletion. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 16:29, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- There are sources that talk about the setting, but not this singular setting. The Flaming Mountains are one such example of a notable article, or even the identically named Mount Huaguo (Jiangsu) that we don't want to confuse this mountain with. I have not seen evidence that this is notable as a singular and distinct article. Jontesta (talk) 19:02, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- I literally provided an example of an article that is about the fictional setting. The title of the Korean article is "A Buddhist reading about Mountain of Flowers and Fruits(花果山) in Journey to the West(西遊記)". That is obviously not about any real life location.
- Filtering the results to also include "西遊記" ("Journey to the West") allows us to home in on again, multiple pages of articles about the fictional mountain. For example: "汤克勤. "自由家园的建构与超越——《 西游记》“花果山” 新解." 广州大学学报: 社会科学版 10, no. 3 (2011): 60-65. (via Google Translate: Tang Keqin. "The Construction and Transcendence of a Free Homeland: A New Interpretation of "Mount Huaguo" in Journey to the West." Journal of Guangzhou University: Social Sciences Edition 10, no. 3 (2011): 60-65.) and 许兆康. "试析《 西游记》 之花果山的真实地点." 神州民俗 4 (2011): 150-153. (via Google Translate: Xu Zhaokang. "An Analysis of the Real Location of the Flower-Fruit Mountain in Journey to the West." Chinese Folklore 4 (2011): 150-153) both appear to be focused on the fictional mountain foremost.
- I'm not familiar enough with the research, but if the Huaguo in Jiangsu has academic consensus for being the inspiration for the literary version, then perhaps a merger is warranted as an alternative to deletion. At the very least, there appear to be many academic articles describing how Lianyungang has used the connection for tourism, though some articles seem to propose alternate locations. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:22, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, some of those sources discuss Mount Huaguo (Jiangsu), the real location. I still don't see how this interpretation of it justifies a second alternative article. (The Korean article doesn't focus on the right mountain.) I can see the good faith in discussing an WP:ATD like merge, but there would be very little to keep since this article is totally without sources. Jontesta (talk) 21:42, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- I have provided prima facie proof that at least three scholarly articles are primarily focused around the fictional mountain, which is usually enough to meet WP:GNG. I do not have access to these articles/do not read Korean, but given the very high amount of Google Scholar hits for both the mountain and the work, it seems very likely that more academic work on the matter exists.
"The Korean article doesn't focus on the right mountain"
Not sure what you're talking about here. The title of the Korean article is "A Buddhist reading about Mountain of Flowers and Fruits(花果山) in Journey to the West(西遊記)". As far as I know, there is only one Huaguoshan in the book. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 23:32, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep There seem to be more secondary sources dealing with the adapations of the character into the TV series than the book versions of the characters, but judging from the nomination I assume we can agree that both types are within the scope of our article here. Now the article currently is in rather bad shape and would likely need trimming but especially additions of sourced commentary. In addition to the two sources above and the Slate article already referenced, We Don’t Need Another Hero: The Magicians’ First Season, Ranking the characters of The Magicians, The Goddess Myth in Contemporary Literature and Popular Culture, Thinking Queerly - Medievalism, Wizardry, and Neurodiversity in Young Adult Texts and Posthumanism in Young Adult Fiction, p. 227-246 all discuss The Magicians characters as a group and individuals to varying degrees. These sources easily provide enough commentary to furnish a full encyclopedic article. And there are many more secondary sources out there which can give more details on some aspect or other of our topic here. So let's not skimp on the WP:BEFORE search!

It can be also enlarged in order to obtain Wikipedia:SIGCOV. The alternative is to add the content to the page of the Deipnosophistae. Digitalphilologist (talk) 06:33, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- This is an argument to merge presented as a deletion discussion: the list is clearly relevant to the Deipnosophistae, and there is nothing wrong about treating it; the question is whether it should be a stand-alone list or part of the main article. Since the main article isn't that long, it seems perfectly feasible to merge this list there, without losing any of its contents—although perhaps it could be reformatted to make it take up less space (and if not, it's still better preserved there than deleted).

- Keep Contested PROD (I opposed it).
- I would agree that 'Benares brass' isn't a thing. At least, not in the metallurgical sense, as a particular brass alloy. I may be wrong - place-specific alloys do sometimes turn up, owing to oddities of local material supply.
- But I'm not convinced that 'brass and brasswork of Benares' isn't a thing, just based on the sources already attached to the article. Is brass manufacture a significant and distinctive industry specific to Benares? Now that's certainly a thing, and there are many such locations where particular forms of metalworking are both distinct (the place is significant to the craft of brassworking) and locally economically important (brass working is significant to the place).

I propose the deletion of this article as it fails to meet encyclopaedic standards. It contains numerous WP:NPOV violations and lacks reliable sources to support many of its claims. The content remains heavily influenced by original research and includes exaggerated statements about the individual’s achievements. Over the past two years, two users, one likely the subject herself, have edited the article. Earlier versions relied predominantly on interviews provided to non-reputable media outlets (not sure what the language is?), further indicating original research. The awards section seems designed to artificially enhance the subject's credentials, yet most of the claims cannot be independently verified, whilst the majority of the (notable) awards have been awarded for team effort. This includes journalistic pieces in which she has either contributed or claimed to have contributed, none of which can be definitively corroborated. Some of those are not reliable, others are mere contributions. As a result, the article is heavily based on unverified original research, and those involved in its editing may be breaching WP:COI. It’s also worth noting that the articles presented as the author’s original work, particularly on Gaza, are again contributions rather than pieces they’ve led. This raises questions about their WP: Notability. Previously, the language used in the article was highly self-promotional, with phrases like "exposed" and "uncovered," attributing investigative achievements to them that aren’t truly theirs. This one fails WP:SIGCOV. Finally, be mindful of potential input in this nomination from the subject and their associates. Happyaroundyoubabes (talk) 09:15, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep The subject of this article is currently engaged in an online dispute and their page is being heavily edited, with this deletion request coming from an account who is politically motivated to try to delete the page. The subject clearly passes WP: Notability, and if there are issues with the page they should be improved, rather than the page being deleted. This deletion request looks vexatious to me, and part of a dispute about the journalist's work which is currently taking place on Twitter/X.--Jwslubbock (talk) 10:57, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: This individual is journalist John Lubbock, who is closely connected to Manisha Ganguly and has a proven history of editing the page. John, could you please publicly confirm that you have no relation to Manisha Ganguly and that your contributions are not linked to WP:COI? Thanks.

- Delete. Substantial WP:COI. The image added by user Fml657 at 11:21, 15 April 2022 says "Added image taken by me", yet on this website ( https://camri.ac.uk/blog/2021/04/13/manisha-ganguly-named-on-the-forbes-30-under-30-list-for-media-and-marketing-in-europe/) that same image says "Image provided by Manisha Ganguly". This shows that user Fml657 who has done the bulk of the contributions to the article is the subject of the article, indicating conflict of interest editing. Likewise, the other major contributor to the page, Jwslubbock, is credited as the photographer (see filename/URL) on (https://blog.westminster.ac.uk/graduateschoolfestival/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2022/03/Manisha-Ganguly-photo-credit-John-Lubbock-150x150.jpg), suggesting that a close connection is editing the page, again showing conflict of interest editing.

- — Schwebebahn (talk •contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- The claim "user Fml657... is the subject of the article" is, based on the above, entirely without foundation, and illogical. The quite is ""Image provided by Manisha Ganguly", not "Image taken by Manisha Ganguly". Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:29, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
