Declined prod. Whilst it looks like a lot of sources, 8 of the 9 are databases or results listing and not enough to meet WP:SPORTSBASIC. The only third party source is this one and is a small mention and not SIGCOV, the source is about the more famous Mark Lewis-Francis. LibStar (talk) 23:45, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. We have so much WP:V info about this subject from WP:RS documenting a career spanning more than six years, which is why I expanded the article to include some of that info I found. There is without a doubt more coverage in Equatoguinean sources, but the sad reality is the vast majority of those sources are only available in physical media for the time being. To prove this, I went through all the publications at List of newspapers in Equatorial Guinea and checked (keeping in mind the subject's career peaked around 2003 to 2008):

El Ebano: Archives only go back to August 2020
Ahora EG: Archives only go to March 2019 (click the "next" button until the end)
La Gaceta: Archives only go to February 2023
La Nacion: Could not find an online archive
La Opinion: Archives only go to September 2016
El Tiempo: Could not find an online archive
La Verdad: Archives only go to July 2014
La voz del pueblo: Could not find an online archive
Diario Rombe: Established in 2012

So, we don't have access to a single Equatoguinean newspaper from the subject's time period, when we know he was regarded as "the nation's best" according to American media. I am also convinced by User:Tamsier's argument in Special:Diff/1284809145 that there is a systemic bias against African countries broadly, and we should take that into account when evaluating the accessibility of sources. --Habst (talk) 01:47, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I found a source I think is SIGCOV on the subject in Al Qabas, page 23 here: [1] Unfortunately the OCR is horrendous, but this is the translation of the first part of the article with DeepL proving it provides coverage on the subject: "2 Alah Shah 5 the athletics machine in the tournament and came asp the stakes which was established in 1913 160 Q 166 and also beat the Mexican injury winning mare Razza Aa Aa Dai Ci and is located at the center of the center of the r Aa Aa Aa 16-7 and Ali Al Anzushefi Akim defeat and against 7 wins in the race Der Baksar Baksar III in Azmi, Turkey for the third Madjaba Madad III. To diagnose and evaluate cases: Players to Topas 161-149. Two draws ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ games while China's Sa'abiya came second in the 11m hurdles (the height of the side of the physical therapy devices to advance), and Digiz had only a NEE Epsom ۔ ے Amir ے Ami ۔ ۔ ۔ ̓ ̓ in the 91cm hurdle). 0 team mare Heliette Nah in the gold medal race and Sasdol Naji Abdullah Mubarak in the bronze medal race. He had difficulty exchanging punches in the Yarmouk heptathlon here on Wednesday...." Given that it's an exact name match and talking about hurdles, it's definitely about the subject.

This paper is from 1980, which would mean the subject was only 16-17 when being written about by a major national paper here. We know from WP:RS that he continued to improve for at least four years following that (likely more considering we don't have good Arab Championships coverage) including a PB in 1983, which is far more than we know about most other Kuwaiti Olympians from the era. Due to the source and WP:NEXIST, I think a keep decision would be justified. --Habst (talk) 00:39, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

One other thing I'd bring up is, considering the poor OCR quality, how many hits in Al Qabas or other newspapers about the subject are we missing just because his name was transcribed by a computer incorrectly? Having an Arabic speaker to help search for variations or common scannos of the name would help a lot. --Habst (talk) 00:42, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of television stations in Nevada#LPTV stations: We no longer regard FCC licenses and databases as any sort of notability indicator; this is another remnant of the lower inclusion standards of 2006. There's only so much significant coverage that a station carrying largely if not entirely national services can be expected to attain.

Electrum (software)

The subject fails to meet Wikipedia’s general notability guideline. Significant coverage in independent reliable sources is not demonstrated. The only references are a couple of wallet reviews and technical mentions which may be insufficient per [WP:GNG] and [WP:ORGCRITE]. In particular, there is little to no coverage in mainstream media beyond routine crypto-sector coverage. Per [WP:NONCRYPTO], sources solely from cryptocurrency-focused outlets or passing mentions cannot establish notability Pollia (talk) 23:26, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm always intrigued when sporadically contributing accounts miss a BEFORE. IMDB notes its existence and agrees with the presenters listed here.

No reliable sources to prove notability. Every source is news reporting from right when it happened or unreliable. There is a contemporary "book" cited here but it appears to be the trial reporting in print form. Much of this material is uncited. Also this should be written as a "Murder of" article - if sources are found to prove notability, that can be fixed, but I do not think it is.

Speedy keep Jimbei is a main character in one of the best-selling works of fiction of all time and clearly meets the standards of WP:Notability. Several works such as Dragon Ball which sell less than One Piece have far more Wikipedia pages of their main characters on Wikipedia. Additionally, Jimbei is a more significant character than several Straw Hats who already have Wikipedia pages. --Plumber (talk) 19:47, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A character being important in-universe does not dictate a character's real world notability, which is what WP:N is based on. None of the sources indicate importance, as he doesn't seem particularly popular based on what rankings exist, and the Gamescooper source seems unreliable given its Terms of Use page says it doesn't engage in fact checking. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 20:35, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I cannot think of a main character in any of the best-selling works of fiction of all time who does not have a Wikipedia page. Additionally, the page quality has no bearing on WP:Notability. Deleting or redirecting this page would be out of line with past Wikipedia practice. Plumber (talk) 21:39, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Plumber:. Notability is not inherited thus despite One Piece being notable it does not mean that this is also notable. Importance of the character in the series is not a good argument for notability, either. WP:GNG states that there is a lot of sources (usually three is enough) talking about the subject in depth to be considered notable. Warm Regards, Miminity (Talk?) (me contribs) 00:36, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In short order I was able to find three scholarly sources talking about Jimbei and the themes of slavery, imprisonment, race relations, and international relations within One Piece, so there is not much merit to an argument for deletion at this point. --Plumber (talk) 02:56, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't ctrl+F find Jinbe, Jimbei, Jimbe mentioned in the first paper, Griffis 2016 (maybe due to bad OCR?). Bendetta 2024 mentions Jimbei in passing in two paragraphs (p. 37, 78). Bahari 2014 does mention Jimbei in a couple of paragraphs (I am unfamiliar with Indonesian; some parts I was not able to machine translate). All papers primarily cover One Piece instead of Jimbei; the first two would not fall under WP:SIGCOV; I cannot make a judgement on the third. /over.throws/^✎ 03:27, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I would recommend reading the articles in full rather than simply using ctrl+F before coming to any conclusions. In any case, editors use WP:Reliable sources on Wikipedia, not our own analysis per WP:NPOV. --Plumber (talk) 03:43, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NPOV is for mainspace prose, not behind-the-scenes source assessment... what I did with your academic sources was scrutinize them under WP:SIRS. Any source establishing baseline notability would go into the subject in detail; that is what the WP:SIGCOV standard constitutes. I agree with you that these papers are reliable, but only in other respects such as analyses related to One Piece. They are not papers that take Jimbei as a primary subject. /over.throws/^✎ 04:17, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If there are other Straw Hat characters with notability problems, then they might have to be looked at as well. In particular, I feel re-redirecting your rework of Brook (One Piece) would also be preferable. I mean all this to say that I would not oppose taking Jimbei's, Brook's, or any other "not notable enough for their own article" character's information to add onto List of One Piece characters as to not completely wipe out your work. /over.throws/^✎ 01:24, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of One Piece characters is already twice as long as most pages which merit splitting.

Popularity is not factored into whether an article is notable enough for inclusion (again, notability is WP:NOTINHERITED).

This is a massive tangent. If the List of One Piece characters is two long, you can suggest a split into something like "List of One Piece characters (A-N)" and " List of One Piece characters (O-Z)" and not separating each characters, see WP:PAGEDECIDE.

WhoIsCentreLeft Two Questions. One, isn't this just a guidline? It does say on Wikipedia:Notability These guidelines only outline how suitable a topic is for its own article or list. They do notlimit the content of an article or list, though notability is commonly used as an inclusion criterion for lists (for example for listing out a school's alumni). For Wikipedia's policies regarding content, see Neutral point of view, Verifiability, No original research, What Wikipedia is not, and Biographies of living persons. Second, how does it decrease the quality of Wikipedia? Servite et contribuere (talk) 19:29, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

According to WP:DEL, articles that fail notability guidelines are subject to deletion. This article violates Wikipedia policy so it should be deleted.

Rollinginhisgrave, it seems that the sole basis WP:NEVENT fails here is WP:LASTING, because there was no enduring coverage. However, given that the 21st century history section of the Columbia article is relatively slim now anyways (probably merits expansion), and given that it did have substantive, quite in-depth coverage in multiple very reputable sources at the time (the New York Times, the Atlantic, CBS, New York Magazine, etc), a one-sentence mention strikes me as appropriate weight. Flip^and Flopped ツ 02:21, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As the coverage in those sources is purely contemporary, they should be considered WP:PRIMARYNEWS. Them being primary doesn't mean they're inaccurate, but it does mean they are not really able to be relied upon to establish the significance of the event to the history of Columbia University as a subject (i.e. whether it's DUE). Further, the 21st century history being short is a feature, not a flaw. It's got a 300 year history. Covering the last 20 in great detail is WP:RECENTISM.

Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:
People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.
- If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

  The article notes: "柳書琴教授、陳建忠教授兩位學者任教於靜宜大學中文系，和台文所游勝冠教授一樣，都是出身清華大學中文系博士班的前後期同學。出身歷史系的柳書琴教授，自碩士班以來即專注戰爭期台灣文學的研究，博士論文更以《福爾摩沙》作家群在東京留學時期的文學活動為對象，史料蒐集之完整、田調功夫下得之深，無人能出其右。"
  From Google Translate: "Professor Liu Shuqin and Professor Chen Jianzhong both teach in the Department of Chinese at Providence University. Like Professor You Shengguan from the Taiwan Literature Institute, they were former and current classmates in the doctoral program of the Chinese Department at Tsinghua University. Professor Liu Shuqin, who graduated from the Department of History, has focused on the study of wartime Taiwanese literature since her master's program. Her doctoral dissertation was based on the literary activities of the "Formosa" writers while they were studying in Tokyo. No one can match her in terms of the completeness of her historical data collection and the depth of her field research. ... Liu Shuqin, whose mother is from the Ma Yuan Dan community, both returned to the tribe to assist and even initiated new research projects."

  From Google Translate: "A total of 7 young people completed the journey; Professor Liu Shuqin of the Department of Taiwanese Literature at Tsinghua University, who is half Dan community descent, conducted a survey on the history of Japanese group immigration, and the survey results exhibition was held in Mayuan Community today."
  The article notes: "柳書琴也說，她從小在馬遠生活、直到11歲才離開，發生遺骨事件後，她回到馬遠，「不管怎樣都要跟族人在一起」，並開始採錄部落阿公阿嬤們的故事。她說，從前，馬遠只是她回來探親、渡假的地方，現在已是學術研究重點，年初還帶20歲兒子加入尋根隊伍，遺骨事件讓馬遠的丹社人重新連結在一起，希望成為部落團結、文化復興的轉捩點。"
  From Google Translate: "Liu Shuqin also said that she lived in Mayuan since she was a child and did not leave until she was 11 years old. After the remains incident, she returned to Mayuan, "to be with my people no matter what," and began to record the stories of the grandparents in the tribe. She said that in the past, Mayuan was just a place she came back to visit relatives and for vacation, but now it has become the focus of academic research. At the beginning of the year, she brought her 20-year-old son to join the root-seeking team. The remains incident has reconnected the Danshe people of Mayuan, and she hopes it will become a turning point for tribal unity and cultural revival."

Redirect - specifically to American Eagle (airline brand)#Accidents and incidents (where it was until recently) It's a run-of-the-mill incident; prop planes bounce down runways all the time, causing injuries, absent any sustained coverage or any claim in the article for notability this should be a redirect. JeffUK 12:38, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to American Eagle (airline brand)#Accidents and incidents as an alternative to deletion – Per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:EVENTCRIT – Per WP:GNG, "sources should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability". From what I've been able to find, none of the sources were secondary in nature since none of them contained analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the event itself. The event does not have significant, in-depth, nor sustained continued coverage of the event itself with coverage only briefly occurring in the aftermath of the accident. WP:EVENTCRIT#4 states that routine kinds of news events including most accidents – whether or not tragic or widely reported at the time – are usually not notable unless something further gives them additional enduring significance, which this event lacks. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 13:39, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I just added that the accident resulted in changes to procedures and regulations affecting airlines, and so has an lasting effect: The accident let to inclusion of "bounced landing recovery techniques" in pilot trainings. (Note to nominator rationale: It is not a good AFD reasoning: Has been turned into a redirect multiple times by several editors (myself included back in 2019) The article includedes now much more references, is improved and is in better shape compared to the previous time the nominator redirected the page.) 95.98.65.177 (talk) 13:46, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What proof is there that there were lasting effects? Just because recommendations were issued doesn't necessarily mean that they were ever implemented. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 13:50, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Aviationwikiflight:: Recommendations were as good as directly implemented: "On September 25, 2004, Executive Airlines incorporated bounced landing recovery techniques in its Airplane Operating Manual (AOM). The bounced landing recovery guidance states the following: In the event the aircraft should bounce after landing, hold or re-establish a normal landing attitude and immediately add power as necessary to control the rate of descent. When using this recovery technique, exercise extreme caution not to increase the pitch attitude above normal as this will only increase the height of the bounce and may cause entry into stall warning. DO NOT push over, as this will only cause another bounce and damage the nose gear. If there is any doubt as to a safe recovery, the captain will call for and conduct an immediate go-around. Apply go-around power and fly the Missed Approach/Rejected Landing Profile. DO NOT retract the Landing Gear until a positive rate of climb is established because a second touchdown may occur during the recovery. ". Next to that, when I Google it, I see the topic reached a lot of attentention in pilot training now, 2 pages I opened for instance pilotmall and pilotinstitute. 95.98.65.177 (talk) 14:01, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The only linked sources are two local articles from around the same day as the accident with only very basic levels of coverage (WP:NOTNEWS), plus the accident report itself (which I don't think actually qualifies as a "secondary source", it is more of a "primary source" as per Aviationwikiflight).

Christopher Mellon

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

This is an elegantly WP:REFBOMBed BLP on a UFO True Believer (TB). In that respect, it stands out from the BLPs of many TBs. On closer examination, however:

The essence of his biography is exclusively sourced to non-WP:INDEPENDENT sources like the UFO group "To the Stars Academy," and a disclosure document filed at opensecrets.org; or, to non-WP:RS sources like a show page for a History Channel Ancient Aliens-type fantasy show ("Unidentified! Inside America's UFO Investigation").
This is legitimized through extensive REFBOMBing in which a dozen RS (e.g. Vice, The Guardian, etc.) are crammed into the article. However, on close inspection, each of these simply contain one sentence quotes from Mellon; no biographical detail or detail of any kind.
This Pittsburgh Post-Gazette article is the only independent biographical treatment of him and it's two short and scanty paragraphs [11].

A standard WP:BEFORE finds more numerous instances of one sentence quotes from him all over the media, but nothing proving WP:SIGCOV. The only exception I've found is a single NewsNation story, however, NewsNation is not usable as a source for UFO TBs as per our decision in WP:UFONATION. Finally, Mellon served briefly (it appears less than two years) as a Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Pentagon. While sub-cabinet officers often get benefit of the doubt for WP:N under WP:POLOUTCOMES, we have never extended that all the way down to the lowly rank of Deputy Assistant Secretary (which is below Assistant Secretary, Under Secretary, Deputy Secretary, and Secretary; there more than 100 DAS' in the USG at any one point).

Even though the sources mostly mention him in relation with the 2001 Skopje police raid, he also participated in numerous battles (Insurgency in the Preshevo Valley, Battle of Slupčane, Lipkovo crisis,Battle of Matejče and Aračinovo crisis). He was one of the most prominent NLA commanders without any doubt which is proven by sources like the North Macedonian Civil Media or Tetova Sot. Furthermore there is the source of Radio Kosova e Lire which describes his early life and involvement in the Insurgency in the Preshevo Valley and 2001 insurgency in Macedonia.

Keep Refs 1, 6, 7, and 27 provide significant IRS or acceptable SPS coverage of the topic. Reception isn't mandatory, and even if it was, non-RS'es would be sufficient for that. Jclemens (talk) 05:49, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Inasmuch as reception is objective the reporting of a non-WP:Reliable source is not reliable, and inasmuch as it is subjective the opinion of a non-WP:Reliable source is not WP:DUE. TompaDompa (talk) 16:07, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  - No, actually. As I've been told elsewhere recently, DUE only governs viewpoints rather than content, so there cannot possibly be a DUE violation if no RS has any viewpoints, because there's nothing to privilege there. Yeah, not sure I believe that, but even so: requiring the RS to be in one section for a fictional topic isn't supported by any policy or guideline to the best of my knowledge, even though it is certainly a best practice to include RS'ed reception when available. Jclemens (talk) 22:48, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    - The very first sentence of WP:NPOV says All encyclopedic content on Wikipedia must be written from a neutral point of view (NPOV), which means representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias, all the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic. In other words, the viewpoints must come from WP:Reliable sources. I'm not sure quite what you are trying to say with DUE only governs viewpoints rather than content, so there cannot possibly be a DUE violation if no RS has any viewpoints, because there's nothing to privilege there, but my point was that if we're talking about the subjective parts of the reception, i.e. opinions/viewpoints, we need to use WP:Reliable sources. It would be rather nonsensical to say that the text of WP:DUE—Neutrality requires that mainspace articles and pages fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint in those sources.—somehow implies that we would defer to sources that are not reliable for their viewpoints if there are no reliable sources to use. Indeed, WP:DUE goes on to say Keep in mind that, in determining proper weight, we consider a viewpoint's prevalence in reliable sources, not its prevalence among Wikipedia editors or the general public. More importantly, DUE only governs viewpoints rather than content is technically correct but a bit misleading/WP:WikiLawyer-ish. Firstly, the content equivalent—WP:PROPORTION, which says that articles are supposed to treat each aspect with a weight proportional to its treatment in the body of reliable, published material on the subject—is just slightly further down from the WP:DUE section of WP:NPOV, and "due" is often used as shorthand for this as well (though it could be argued to strictly speaking be wrong to use "due" in this sense). Secondly, that X is worth mentioning, or indeed that Y is not worth mentioning, is a viewpoint. TompaDompa (talk) 05:02, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Since the article is all plot, it has not been demonstrated that these sources meet WP:SIGCOV, and that they go beyond a plot summary. WP:ALLPLOT/WP:NOTPLOT (the latter being a policy) ask to be heard, I am afraid. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:16, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to List of Greyhawk deities where this has an entry that is just a link to this page, but where other deities have a paragraph each. Not clear why this one gets special treatment. Claims that this has sourcing are quite debatable. Jclemens says some refs give acceptable SPS coverage of the topic. But WP:SPS sources do not contribute to the notability of the topic, and this is nearly everything (or else the sources are primary). Dragon magazine has an article about four deities, but Dragon is an official magazine for the D&D RP games and is thus not an independent source for notability.

I also prefer keeping the article as opposed to a merge on WP:CANYOUREADTHIS grounds and as per WP:NOPAGE: it is impractical to collect the information into a single page, because the resulting article would be too unwieldy.

Weak Keep I think that the article has some notability and can be improved. Theofunny (talk) 04:10, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and agree with the "Twitter fad" comment from OP. The article is based on sources that are not particularly reliable or notable: a Substack, some Youtube videos from a channel that barely cracks 30k views per video on a good day, and a couple of websites that look more like blogs. It doesn't deserves its own article. Could also be redirected to Jackson Hinkle who, from my understanding, it's their main "representative". Paprikaiser (talk) 21:36, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Jackson Hinkle - aside from the article currently being in a questionable state, it itself already seems to acknowledge at multiple points in the span of merely five paragraphs that "MAGA Communism" has a near-zero number of serious supporters and no real presence outside of the internet (seriously, about a third of the article is currently dedicated to explaining how unpopular its subject is), and the sources, as already stated by another editor, don't seem to be particularly excellent for proving the subject's notability. I fail to see how this is notable, or any reason to not redirect this page to Jackson Hinkle, which was already the case when it was created.

Keep - the argument for deletion was that it was non-notable. But notability can be established.

AfD decisions aren't based on the number of votes, and speedily closing per something like WP:SNOW isn't applicable here because the discussion is not universal in agreement (mostly weak support for keeping the article at best).

Redirect back to Jackson Hinkle (or simply delete). The only high-quality source that more than mentions this is the Guardian piece, which paints a rather different picture than what we get in the article. So, at least at present, I would say it flunks notability (unless maybe if the Spanish sources are especially strong?). Also, there's a possible NPOV issue with treating what is elsewhere presented as mostly a social media provocation as if were a serious social movement or emerging political coalition. Patrick (talk) 13:16, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for now, review for re-creation in 6 months I almost wrote "keep for now and AFD it again in 6 months" but was afraid that would be counted as simply as "keep". If this is a passing meme that quickly disappears, we should not have an article on it. If not, we should have one. Probably the best wiki basis for my bolded stance is wp:notnews and also that it doesn't have really in-depth RS coverage. North8000 (talk) 15:46, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hm, 6 months might not make a difference however - the sources for this article range from 2022 to 2025. Being for almost 3 years seems to show that it passed the end of time, unless you need it to be almost 3,5 years instead to be sure. Brat Forelli🦊 15:25, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Jackson Hinkle. If this had something like the sourcing that exists for a subject like National Bolshevism, I could see this being retained, but the sourcing is overwhelmingly about a single person, not a movement, alliance or faction. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 23:14, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Oaktree and Brat Forelli. It has coverage in a multitude of sources. Although it's linked to Hinkle, the coverage of it as a separate phenomenon is enough to merit an article here.

Redirect to Jackson Hinkle. The sources are Infrared (a youtuber); Jackson Hinkle tweets; one article each (mostly about Hinkle's activities) by Vice, The Spectator, and The Guardian, and some blogs and fringe publications that aren't on WP:RSN. Also, it is written like an essay. It is a fringe Twitter trend promoted by Hinkle and affiliated minor social media influencers on Twitter.

Airside Retail Park

Based on the category this is in, this is one of two retail parks in the State with articles. But from the article, I can’t discern what makes it notable. Its external coverage is routine: it was constructed, has certain facilities and a large anchor tenant in the Tesco, all of which brought jobs. Isn’t this the same as dozens if not hundreds of retail parks? The content could possibly be merged into the Swords article. Iveagh Gardens (talk) 08:42, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge/redirect to Swords,_Dublin#Commercial_and_retail. Or, failing that, simply delete. While Wikipedia:WikiProject Shopping Centers doesn't have specific notability guidelines, WP:NBUILDING and WP:GNG apply. And there is nothing to indicate that this retail park meets either guideline. (In short, while a WP:BEFORE returns mentions of the retail park's name in news articles, it is mainly "incidental" coverage. Where the subject isn't the primary topic of the coverage and is mentioned in passing in news coverage about something else (like this on RTÉ where the main topic is the MetroLink, or this in the Fingal Independent where the new Tesco store could have been elsewhere and probably would have had the same coverage.) I cannot find any material sources which cover the subject as a primary topic in any depth. The only sources I can find would only allow for expansion of a "tenants" sections (which would be completely inappropriate relative to WP:TENANTS and WP:NOTDIRECTORY). And, unless I'm missing something, I can't find sources to expand on the site's history/architecture/operation/ownership/etc.) The only reason I'm advocating a merge/redirect, as an alternative to deletion, is because of the volume of mentions returned in a WP:BEFORE.

comment from the above, [16] is a master's thesis that provides a brief bit of coverage. Certainly counts as a secondary source. [17] appears to be independent use of the character.

Comment One other source I do find relevant and usable in the Google Scholar search is the PhD thesis "“Sounds Like It's Canon Now”: Texts and/as Truths in Transmedia Franchise Dungeons & Dragons". Has a lot of plot summary on Eilistraee, but also commentary on different characterization in Smedman's novels and earlier rulebooks. Daranios (talk) 15:40, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That 2024 dissertation on D&D transmedia has a large focus on Eilistraee & the impact of Lisa Smedman's Lady Penitent trilogy on D&D narrative (pg232-269). I didn't go through every collection available in the Wikipedia Library but I went through some of the larger ones (JSTOR, ProQuest, Sage, Springer, Taylor & Francis, etc) and that dissertation was the only hit for "Eilistraee".

Keep If the reception we have now would be bolstered with said PhD thesis, and the plot summary would be trimmed back to an amount balanced with the non-plot sections of Publication history and Reception (and in part Background), we would have a non-stubby article which fullfils WP:NOTPLOT and has enough based on secondary source to fullfil WP:WHYN, i.e. a notable topic. That said, I am not fundamentally opposed to a merge, though my preferred target in such a case would be the Drow article in parallel to the discussion on Lolth. The commentary on Eilistraee we have now is closely related to the drow. Maybe a bit less so in the PhD thesis. List of Dungeons & Dragons deities or Corellon Larethian are also related topics and fine as merge targets, but in my view somewhat less suited. Daranios (talk) 15:17, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

British Columbia Excalibur Party

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

Fails WP:ORG. I found no in-depth coverage in reliable sources after searching through Google and provincial archives (Vancouver City archives + UBC Library). The now defunct party achieved insignificant results in the one election it contested (less than one-tenth of a percent in 2013), so there is no obvious claim of notability.

Of the 6 sources cited, 2 are primary sources, 2 are blogs, 1 is routine local coverage for the election cycle, and 1 is a routine registration list from Elections BC. I found one more article from a minor news publisher that accepts articles from the general public. A lack of reliable and in-depth coverage indicates a lack of lasting significance as well.

The rationale behind "sufficient coverage" means you can't count the number of sources necessary to show a clear notability of a subject. For a BLP concentrating on negative activities, the bar is higher, in my view. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 13:47, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think you need to reread BLP, and specifically WP:BLPCRIME, if you think "more than 2 reliable sources talking about him" is "all the criteria of BLP". Fram (talk) 13:47, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Okay well we have 11 sources, and he has been found guilty of his crimes. so I'm not sure why you're invoking WP:BLPCRIME here Scuba 13:52, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What crimes? Income tax fraud and storing a gun improperly? He isn't Jack the Ripper, these aren't notable crimes. Oaktree b (talk) 14:54, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As far as the article goes, he is not even conviceted of storing a gun improperly either, only of provincial tax evasion. But we do have "Wowk had run a computer consultancy named TKW Communications which, according to former employees, hadn't paid taxes from 2000 until they where caught in 2004, and that Wowk destroyed most of the tax records to prevent them from falling into auditor's hands": in reality, it is an allegation by one employee, and he doesn't say that "Wowk destroyed" anything, but that "He also stated that he would destroy all documents long before any auditors came in".[18] So that's some clear BLP violations right there. Fram (talk) 15:31, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So, a one-time political candidate that had untaxed smokes and skimped on paying provincial income tax... That sounds like a character in crime noir thriller, nothing we'd use for an article in Wikipedia. This is silly. Oaktree b (talk) 18:25, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
He has sufficient media coverage to have a Wikipedia article. Twitter trolls have Wikipedia articles. a PPC candidate who runs a nationwide Chinese prostitution ring should have a Wikipedia page. Scuba 03:13, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Definitely not speedyable since the information is reliably sourced, although the excessive could be trimmed somewhat. My chief problem is I did a search for news sources, found all the ones already in the article, and then drew a blank.

I think the more important criminal charge is the breaking the terms of bail and then harassing a police officer, the tobacco thing is just another thing that was listed in the source article and is not the centerpiece of this article, his prostitution ring and then political campaign is. Scuba 03:14, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: We have reliable sources from 2021 and 2024, which appear to confirm his notability WP:BASIC, CBC by Geoff Leo, Regina Leader Post by Brandon Harder. The articles are 3 years apart and the subject was in the media. He won a Governor General of Canada award for "Fire Services Exemplary Service Medal" in 2021 [19] which would appear to confirm WP:ANYBIO, "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times". The article does need some work, it does read like an attack page, but that can be trimmed down. m a MANÍ^{1990(talk | contribs)} 18:54, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Did you even read the Fire Services Exemplary Service Medal article and see what it actually is? "The medal recognizes members of recognized Canadian fire services who had served for 20 years, ten years of which have been served in the performance of duties involving potential risks." This is the exact opposite of a "well-known and significant award or honor", I didn't even know it existed until today, not to mention it would mean that every Canadian firefighter who served 20+ years would automatically be notable for a wiki article.⁂CountHacker (talk) 07:30, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per nom and Oaktree b. As far as I can tell, the only crime he's even convicted on is tax evasion. However, this article is highlighting the criminal charges of a non-public figure who ran for a minor party in 2019 once.

I hadn't seen either of these, but "What Do I Read Next?" just mentions the book in a list of "Recommended Titles" on page 310. There is no review or significant coverage of the book. The second source looks like an undergraduate thesis, which isn't usable according to WP:SCHOLARSHIP.

Keep - searching on Google Books reveal that plenty of works reference this newspaper. South Asia and China: Engagement in the Twenty-First Century has ample commentary about the editorial positions of the newspaper on Indo-China issues. Mass Media of India -2004 lists it as one of the principal dailies in the state. The sole daily in Arunachal Pradesh listed in Press in India, vol. 33. "Arunachal Times was published from the state with Vijay Kumar Nath as the chief editor and Taso Grayu as the editor - cum- publisher . Kumar joined in August 1989 and ultimately took over as its editor in December 2003. Its popularity grew day by day . From letter composing , the daily introduced offset in 1996 and web offset on 2nd December 2008."([25]). In 2014-2015 Arunchal Times had the second-largest advertisement payments from central Ministry of Information and Broadcasting of all Arunchal newspapers ([26]). "In July this year, Tongam Rina, a leading journalist and associate editor of Arunachal Times was shot from close range while she was leaving the office." (The Telegraph), "On July 15, 2012, the well-known investigative journalist and associate editor of the Arunachal Times was shot by unknown gunmen as she entered..." (IFJ).

Keep I am coming here from the discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Newspapers#What_do_you_cite_when_You_are_talking_about_a_Newspaper? and a request for comment on newspaper notability which I am organizing at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Newspapers/Notability#Request_for_comment:_Notability_guideline_for_newspapers. Here we have a Wikipedia article for an English language newspaper in Nagaland. I highly respect Wikipedia's fact-checking process, which says that we cannot have Wikipedia articles without sufficient citations. This article does not meet that requirement, which is documented at WP:GNG. However, I am proposing and exploring the idea that newspapers need a special exception, because they themselves are the sources which we use to fact-check other content. Having Wikipedia articles for newspapers is the natural way for anyone to find available information about a newspaper, or also - and this is very useful - confirm that no one has been able to find many sources for a newspaper.

We have very little Wikipedia representation in Nagaland (Northeast India) and I looked at this newspaper, and right now it seems fine.

Here are some article headlines which I see right now in this newspaper. All of them seem appropriate to me to cite to develop Wikipedia articles on related topics:

Seneca, Arizona

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

This one is a mess not in the least because it's not clear that the ghosttowns.com entry is talking about the same place, but according to this story the place came into being as a failed attempt by the local reservation to create a vacation spot. I'm not sure that it all there is to it, as it shows up on the map before that timeframe, but at any rate it is absolutely not a populated place now. Mangoe (talk) 02:43, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Seneca Lake Recreation Complex with the artificial Seneca Lake on Cienega Creek that flows down Mule Hoof Canyon is indeed where this is. But it is not Cienega Creek; this one rather being a minor tributary of the Salt River. The construction of the complex on the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation in the 1970s required the production of OCLC 21683618 before it could be signed off.
The ghosttowns page implies that Seneca "ghost town" was part of the asbestos mining in Arizona; and hdl:10150/629706 confirms the existence of a tiny Seneca Mining Company in the 1950s, although other Bureau of Mines publications such as OCLC 1990345 indicate that Accident Group of Globe was the major asbestos mining company there.
In the 1980s GNIS, Seneca at 33°45′24″N 110°30′44″W / 33.75667°N 110.51222°W / 33.75667; -110.51222 (Seneca) was a "locale" not a "ppl". So this is another "unincorporated community" lie that is not really fixable as it isn't the real subject anywhere. asbestos mining in Arizona is a missing subject, but this would be a totally ridiculous way to start it.

Otherwise, I have found sources that confirm his role as director in the episodes of the Simpsons. I think that is enough to satisfy WP:CREATIVE#3, as they provide verification of his role. (This person is not the same as the Lance Kramer who with his brother Brandon Kramer has made The First Step and Holding Liat - that Lance Kramer will probably be notable too.) RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:42, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree that he means CREATIVE#3 as Kramer is not the "creator" of the Simpsons - that would be Matt Groening. And CREATIVE#3 mentions (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series). However, the 3 articles mentioned may meet WP:BASIC. Can you put links to the articles here? Natg 19 (talk) 21:33, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CREATIVE includes WP:DIRECTOR and other creative professions - it does not mean just the original creator of a series. The wording you quote is about what form coverage of "the significant or well-known work or collective body of work" can take: the work "must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work, for example ...". Lance Kramer directed 25 episodes of The Simpsons - it seems to me that he "played a major role in co-creating" it. The sources are in the article. RebeccaGreen (talk) 11:25, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I still disagree with you, as directing 25 episodes is very minor, out of the 783 (and growing) number of The Simpsons episodes. That is less than 5%. Will review the sources later on. Natg 19 (talk) 18:33, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I don't see how this album is any less notable than most of the the other 20-odd releases from the King Crimson Collector's Club which have articles on Wikipedia; are they all to be deleted too? Sure, these things don't sell enough to get in the charts, but they are important documents of a highly influential band - King Crimson - which is now no more. If anything, I would argue that the Projekcts releases such as this one are MORE notable than many King Crimson live releases, due to their very rarity; only a handful were ever released. Robert Fripp, now nearly 80 years old, has regularly been voted one of the best guitarists on the planet and I believe that future generations will be thankful that we have documented all of his work here. There will be no more KCCC releases, and in a decade or so it is likely that Fripp's website will disappear too, leaving future music lovers looking to us for information on a remarkable talent (and I say that as an ex-pro musician myself.) In comparison, consider Frank Zappa, a musician of the same generation held in similarly high esteem by a broadly similar audience. Since his death there have been over 60 archive releases from his estate, each one no doubt selling only a few thousand copies to a dedicated fan-base, just as Live in Northampton, MA has done.

IndustryMasters

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

IndustryMasters the company(?) and IndustryMasters the game (formerly IndustryPlayer) fail WP:ORG. I could not find in-depth coverage in reliable sources online.

There are five sources cited but actually eight in total; three are pasted in the middle of the article as external links. Citation 1 is a permanently dead link. Citations 2 to 4 verify that the IndustryMasters website was used to host one event (one game) of a competition in India from 2006 to 2010. Citation 5 does not mention, but is being used to verify the existence of, the event and competition. The first external link is a YouTube video announcing that IndustryMasters won a Learning Technologies Award, a private initiative. The second external link is a WBS source that briefly mentions IndustryMasters twice in the context of the WBS working with them. The Warwick Business School source is an announcement of its partnership with IndustryMasters.

The sourced content does not indicate anything particularly remarkable about the IndustryMasters company(?) and the rest of the article, including information about its gameplay and utility, is wholly unsourced. Its biggest claim to fame is winning an award in 2020 in its niche subset of educational games.

This article was recreated by Sunshinebr after its preceding article IndustryPlayer was deleted on 6 June 2008. Sunshinebr justified the recreation by saying they added sources, but evidently the sources are not in-depth or independent of the company and nobody had bothered scrutinising them until now. All of this article's content was written by Sunshinebr (other users' edits being general cleanup) and nearly all of Sunshinebr's edits are limited to this article.

Seems to me that an article for a non-notable game and later company was recreated and managed to pass unnoticed for several years. Yet through all that time, not one reliable, independent source covered either the game or company in detail, hence a failure of WP:ORG. Yue🌙 01:27, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am the contributor sunshinebr. some inaccuracies in Yue's commentary _ IndustryMasters is a registered trademark for a proprietary and unique business simulation platform with hundreds of simulation variants, used by major corporations and business schools across the world. To call it non-notable is a distortion. - The activity in India was not 1 game but many editions and variations, and several top business schools. - The Learning Technology awards are a prestigious annual industry event in the UK. Not exactly a "private initiative" as Yue has stated. It may not be US-based, but is important in our industry, recognizing exceptional standards and performance as well as extremely close collaboration with a major academic institution. - I have removed reference 1 (the dead link) from the CPA of Australia as it seems to be out of print now. at the time of original publishing it was a valid reference. - The IndustryMasters platform continues to develop and publish in 2025 and will shortly announce major technological advances in business simulation programming. I would hope that Wikipedia would advance into the 21st century with its thinking, and provide a useful reference to the world across academia and industry.

Delete Not seeing notability here against WP:NCORP. The sourcing present in the article fails to support significant coverage that would detail key information to describe the business and its products. The article is littered with promotional jargon that is generally not encyclopedic at all. The sources indicate some recognition in the field, but these are scattered amongst products or business practices that fail to provide context to the business or really evidence anything about its core notability. If the business is notable within or outside its industry, broader sourcing about the business would be expected. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 08:30, 31 March 2025 (UTC) Delete I cannot see it's notability either.

KEEP: I do not know what the moderators, other editors would like. Australia is different to the US/UK - we do not have talk shows that discuss events. We have the news bulletins on television/radio and the newspapers. This is an on-going case and the comments section of any article about this (when opened) shows how outraged Australians are over this.

A young woman was taken, murdered, then her body dumped - Wikipedia has articles about a lot less. The trial, details of this are still yet to come; anticipating it to be a big trial with lots of information/evidence etc to be released (because we are in pre-trial stage so not everything is released - that would destroy the prosecutors case) someone took the initiative to start a page and start compiling the information and what because the Made for TV Movie isn't already being developed it's not enough for editors to warrant a page.

For the record there are other things happening in Australia as well; the Brisbane Olympic Games finally announced what they are doing, we had the Federal Budget handed down, we have an impending Election which is all taking up news time but because this isn't top story every night "WELP The world doesn't need to know about another woman killed by a man"? It's already a growing pandemic and you want to be part of hiding the numbers and sweeping stories about it under the rug?

Keep I disagree with the reasons for nomination. Several articles discussed the event in the context of demonstrations opposing violence against women. It's more than just thing happened. I was able to find coverage in both Australian and UK sources, some of it from October 2024 and now March 2025. The multi-country scope and significant national coverage in Australia suggests notability to me as this is not an event just isolated to local news. I have added updates to the article with additional sources. A quick google news search turns up articles from October 2024 and March 2025, and please do due diligence commenting in favor of keep or delete. Coverage will likely continue as the full trial begins and I don't think the duration of coverage will be an issue long-term.

Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 01:10, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This one is borderline for me. Hassett (2024) looks like it gives coverage of the event as a notable example as opposed to news coverage. Roulston (2024) might indicate this as well, but it's a stretch. If there's a slightly more clear cut example of using this as a WP:CASESTUDY or becoming a go-to example in the literature, then it would be a definite keep.

Delete - there's an ongoing criminal court case. I'm not Australian but I suspect that there are similar regular reporting restrictions on legacy media during active criminal litigation as in the UK. Nothing we do here should impede the operation of a fair trial IMO, and there's no overwhelming reason why we need to write this story until all the court time is completed. JMWt (talk) 06:56, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Is this a reason to delete articles on wikipedia? Unless the information in the article is original research, all of the information is from third parties. Wikipedia isn't censored WP:UNCENSORED, and I'm not sure how this article would impede a fair trial. Is the argument here to delete any article as soon as there are related court cases? Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 23:37, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
well I don't want to try getting outside of my lane in terms of detailed knowledge about media law however the situation relating to reporting current legal cases in the UK (and likely Australia and other countries with similar legal systems) is different to America. Here, judges tell jurors that they should disregard anything they hear or read outside of the courtroom and the media can be in breach of the law - even for repeating "common knowledge" facts about the case whilst a trial is going on. It isn't about censorship, it's about respect for the legal system as it works in different jurisdictions.

As to your other point, I believe Wikipedia should be following the media rules of jurisdictions like other media, which may well involve removing pages from view if they include information that would not be published in other media during a criminal trial.

In this particular case I think that's getting into the weeds as it looks like there may only be a fairly short delay until the court case starts and hopefully concludes anyway. So there would likely be more material to write a better page in a few months anyhow. JMWt (talk) 13:30, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep – I am not an expert in analyzing Indian sources, but the company seems to have the minimum notability for an article ([33], [34], [35]).

Not all individuals featured in Forbes necessarily meet the eligibility threshold for a standalone Wikipedia article.

The subject must first satisfy the notability criteria outlined in Wikipedia's WP:Notability guidelines as a prerequisite for inclusion.

Zuck28 (talk) 14:23, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Notability is not established per WP:NACTOR, WP:MUSICBIO nor WP:GNG. The sourcing consists of standard PR type promo that one would see for any emerging actor with a press agent, including Forbes, which is not significant coverage, it's simply a photo of her with a caption mentioning her name, thus trivial. The Forbes "profile" link above is more standard PR ~~written by "Forbes Staff", (it does not even have a by-line)~~. I agree with the nom that this is a case of WP:TOOSOON. Perhaps in a few more years this emerging actor will become notable, but at this time, one acting role, Spotify "fans" and famous parents is not enough. Netherzone (talk) 15:46, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of Doctor Who parodies

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

An WP:INDISCRIMINATE list. Doctor Who is an iconic series, and nearly every iconic series has been parodied at some point; there is no coverage indicating that parodies of Doctor Who specifically are notable. The overall topic has no coverage: All GNews hits are from unreliable sources or trivial mentions, while Books and Scholar have nothing covering parodies in particular. There's absolutely nothing indicating the notability of this subject, and none of the spoofs individually appear to be notable either given the lack of strong sourcing for all of them. This subject completely fails notability. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 13:54, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Science fiction and fantasy, Television, Lists, and United Kingdom. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 13:54, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comments while Books and Scholar have nothing covering parodies in particular: Dancing with the Doctor has a multi-page chapter dealing with the subject, "Unruly Divergence: Parody and Comedy". A Pirate's History of Doctor Who: the unauthorized stories reviews one parody in-depth, The Reign of Turner, but also discusses Doctor Who spoofs more generally on p. 171 (and presumably 170). It does have an ISBN, does not look self-published to me at first glance. Is Houston Press unreliable? Daranios (talk) 15:39, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment A list of parody moments is in general a much more dubious proposition than a list of parody works—the latter being particularly suitable for a WP:CSC #1 (Every entry meets the notability criteria for its own article in the English Wikipedia.) kind of list, assuming there should be a list in the first place. If we are going to have such a list, I would be in favour of keeping information about each parody to a minimum on the list page, relying instead on the link to the article about the parody work for the details of the parody.
I took a quick look at the sources linked above by Daranios (or more accurately, the parts Google Books decided to show me). I would note that The Reign of Turner (IMDb link) does not currently have a stand-alone Wikipedia article and based on a quick search for sources likely does not merit one. The other linked source is a bit difficult to assess as Google Books rather severely limits what I'm able to see, but it mentions (at least) Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death, Tonight's the Night (TV series)#Doctor Who Sketch, and "From Raxacoricofallapatorius with Love". The first and last of those are explicitly described as specials (a Doctor Who special and a The Sarah Jane Adventures special, respectively), which seems a bit dubious to describe as "parodies" without further qualifiers or elaboration (one might term them "self-parodies", perhaps).
I would also note that there is a Doctor Who in popular culture article (which is, it should be said, not in great shape at the moment). It is not immediately obvious to me that we should have separate articles for parodies and other types of cultural references. TompaDompa (talk) 17:09, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- I have taken a stab at reducing this to a list of parody works with stand-alone Wikipedia articles. Take a look and see what you think. At any rate, we should not be listing parody works, parody moments, parody characters, and parody in-universe media together—that's just sloppy article construction. TompaDompa (talk) 17:27, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I am not sure I agree with the recent extreme "cleanup" of the page (including removal of all the sources!!!] but that might be a different issue (I can't see why different sections focusing on different types/levels of parodying would be inappropriate; quite the opposite). Anyway clearly meets WP:NLIST. Sources presented above could seem sufficient. The topic is also addressed in Playing Fans: Negotiating Fandom and Media in the Digital Age (p. 102-104, for example) Also see sources like https://templeofgeek.com/list-of-doctor-who-parodies-and-doctor-who-inspired-music/ https://metro.co.uk/2017/03/24/no-doctor-who-sketch-in-comic-relief-this-year-you-can-watch-one-of-these-instead-6508088/ One can also add a Game Rant list (that CAN be used to expand the article, that's what WP:VALNET clearly states). Among missing titles in the list is Doctor Whore (https://www.cinemablend.com/television/Doctor-Who-Porn-Parody-Series-Exists-Compare-Casts-66875.html ; https://www.allocine.fr/article/fichearticle_gen_carticle=18633654.html?%20Series)) so that (re)-expansion seems AT LEAST possible -Mushy Yank. 09:25, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- different sections focusing on different types/levels of parodying would be a third approach, different both from what the article was like when it was nominated (which listed different types/levels of parody alongside each other, not grouped as such) and how it is structured now. Whether it is a good idea depends on whether that's how the sources treat the subject—parody works and parody characters (and so on) are different concepts, so if sources only discuss one of them if would be inappropriate to cover them together here. TompaDompa (talk) 10:00, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep I think there are enough secondary sources to establish notability, and everything else can be solved through normal editing. With regard to The Reign of Turner, if it is discussed in secondary source(s) but not enough to be notable, it is suitable to be included in a list in accordance with WP:ATD-M and such. I am not fundamentally opposed to treating this in a larger context, like Doctor Who in popular culture, on the basis of WP:PAGEDECIDE, but that's again a discussion that can be done outside of the deletion discussion.

Comment: I feel so far, there has been very little sourcing discussing parodies as a whole, which is required by WP:LISTN to establish independent subject notability. So far the bulk, if not all of the sources, have been merely listings of ones that exist, or coverage of particular ones; nothing has thus far lent itself to showing the entire overarching subject is notable. I'm still not convinced that this meets notability right now. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 17:06, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Abdul Wahab Naser Al-Safra

Declined prod. The 2 added sources don't really contribute to notability. The arabnews story is a 1 line mention and not SIGCOV. The Olympiads.sa source appears to be a primary source of the athlete's Olympic Federation. Fails WP:SPORTSCRIT and WP:NOLY. LibStar (talk) 13:55, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I think there's an WP:NEXIST case to be made here considering that the subject was one of the first three athletes to ever represent Saudi Arabia internationally. We have three different WP:RS sources covering the subject plus two prose-based ones that I found despite not knowing the target language. I think a Wikipedian in Saudi Arabia should be able to find more SIGCOV out there, understanding that that Saudi newspaper archives would certainly have covered this in the 1970s. --Habst (talk) 17:16, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Being one of the first athletes is fine, but we have no sourcing that talks about it. I can't find any in the languages I can speak; there might be some in Arab-language sources, but those aren't in my wheelhouse. Happy to revisit if someone can post some sort of extensive sourcing in the native language. Oaktree b (talk) 19:12, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Saudi Arabia at the 1972 Summer Olympics: Subject doesn't appear to currently have the requisite WP:SIGCOV to meet the WP:GNG.

Delete per nom. There are some potential good sources but on a closer look they fail WP:CORPDEPTH criteria. For example, this article is basically an interview, this article is paid (see disclaimer "PARTNER CONTENT"), and this article is just full of quotes like "Mr Chandran says", "Mr Latheef says", "the founders say", "the partners say", "Mr Latheef adds", "chief executive of MySyara, says", and then at the end they posted a brief interview. Fails WP:NCORP. Gheus (talk) 12:04, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep these articles here will establish notability: Forbes, The National News, Middle East Business, Expeienece Abu Dhabi, Jawlah, Zawya. I will stop here. There are many more. I also don't see anything that sounds promotional. The content is strictly about their major milestones, historical facts, such as acquisitions and partnerships. There is not much difference between this and hundreds of other similar companies on Wikipedia. Dear Nominator: Please name me one section that you think is promotional and I will remove or revise it. There is no need for deletion if the article can be improved.

Keep – Meets notability guidelines - independent coverage in reliable sources, especially in relation to international financial investigations and whistleblower activity.

Coverage and involvement include:

Mapley’s role in the collapse of the Basis Yield Alpha Fund, which invested in the Goldman Sachs Timberwolf CDO, is covered in HuffPost, The New York Times DealBook, ABC Australia, and International Business Times.

Mapley was a technical advisor to the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, contributing to its 650-page report on the 2008 subprime crisis, highlighting Goldman Sachs’ misrepresentation of structured financial products.

Further third-party coverage includes Expatica Switzerland, St Vincent Times, Further Blows Traded in EPF Fraud Case – PA Europe, and OffshoreAlert, which document his broader work in international financial investigations and asset recovery.

The article avoids promotional content and focuses on well-documented, encyclopedic facts. Legal cases are not undue weight, but part of broader public interest and regulatory investigation coverage.

This is not a case of routine mentions — Mapley is a central figure in multiple reputable sources with long-term notability — Quadtripplea (talk) 09:24, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Augury (company)

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

Article was created in 2019 by an account that was blocked for apparent undisclosed paid editing. The references in the article are all either press releases or churnalism/WP:CORPTRIV, with the exception of one interview with the CEO which is not independent coverage of the article's subject. The article fails WP:GNG and WP:NCORP. The sources I could find online were other press releases and routine coverage of things like funding and acquisitions, nothing that would show notability for the subject. I did find one source that seems borderline, but that single source is not enough to show notability (per WP:GNG and WP:ORGCRIT). Not to be confused with the platform of the same name.
