Fails WP:GNG. No arguments have been given in the last AfD. GeoffreyT2000 ( talk) 23:01, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Delete WP:GNG per my comments when I nominated this article at its first AFD, which was closed WP:NPASR No Consensus since no-one else had commented on that AFD. The author has not touched this article in the three months since, confirming my impression that this article was nothing but an attempt to bolster a repeatedly speedied article on the artist who supposedly created this subgenre.

A non-notable video game composer. A while ago, I created his page just because he had one on the Japanese Wikipedia, but now I've realized he isn't really notable and that the Japanese Wikipedia has different notability guidelines. I can't find any sources indicating notability either, and the page is also near-unsourced. DrDevilFX ( talk) 20:31, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Subject dosen't appear to meet general notability guidelines as laid out in WP:42. Per WP:NPOL, just being an unelected candidate for office does not automatically confer notability. The sources in the article are all either primary or non- rs. I searched for better sources, and was unable to find evidence of significant coverage of the subject in secondary reliable sources.

  • Redirect to Libertarian Party presidential primaries, 2016. If he wins the Libertarian nomination, that will probably bring him to a level of being notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 21:24, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply
    • Mr Petersen does not conform to the foundation and primary principle of non-aggression stated in the Libertarian Party bylaws, the party platform, the Statement of Principles, and the pledge of non-aggression that all Party members must sign when they join. There is little chance that the Party delegates will nominate him as it will be largely contested. Buncoshark 15:43, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

I have put many hours in researching and learning about Wikipedia, so I could make Austin an appropriate page. Austin is certainly notable, he is consistantly in either first or second place in the polls. And his competitor Gary Johnson has a campaign page. I'm a Libertarian. I am just seeking fair coverage of candidates. The Libertarian primaries are next month(March 15) We will be having our first nationally televised debate on Fox Business with John Stossel, and Austin will be on it. If there is something I can do to fix it, let me know. Or could we at least keep his page on here until it is decided whether he is our nominee or not. Hezymundo ( talk) 20:54, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
@ Hezymundo: I sympathize, but the difference is that Gary Johnson was a governor for eight years, and had plenty of coverage during that time. He also received a lot of coverage for his 2012 presidential run. It's not necessarily fair, but Wikipedia is supposed to follow the sources, not get ahead of them. Check out WP:GNG and WP:RS for information about what's required here. — Tourchiest talk edits 22:11, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
@ Tourchiest: Thank you for replying. I understand. So after the primaries, IF he were to succeed, I can recreate the page? Also, can I edit the Libertarian Primaries page to include a little biography about him? Neutral of course. Hezymundo ( talk) 22:44, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
No, Austin Petersen is only "first or second place in the polls" in polls created by Petersen and his few followers. They pack the poll and then advertise while Petersen is ahead. once the other three Libertarian candidates move ahead of Petersen, they abandon that poll and make a new one, giving the illusion that he is ahead, but it's always until they make the poll public. Petersen cannot be the nominee as his opposition to the non-aggression principle calls for censorship of his bid. The Libertarian Party is not officially debating the point right now because they are getting publicity. It will be done during the convention. Buncoshark 23:23, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
That is a lot of speculating, and accusations for a page claiming to be neutral. If you want to debate me personally, please find me on an alternative source. Even on the Wikipedia page for Nap and Libertarians it is cited that it is controversial. Hezymundo ( talk) 01:28, 19 February 2016 (UTC) reply
Actually, I've already seen the Party bylaw that talks about how Petersen can lose his bid for nomination. The issue here is not whether the NAP is "controversial," but that Petersen is not abiding by Party regulations. My point with you is that those reports about Petersen being ahead in polls is fictitious (see my explanation above). Buncoshark 01:49, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

  • Comment. While "non-notable list" doesn't mean anything here (any more than "non-notable article would), this television network does not appear to have any original notable programming, which makes it far less valuable.

Poorly sourced article about a company, which has a definite advertorial slant to it and was created by one of its own founders (thus violating WP:COI). The sourcing here is entirely to primary sources and simple namechecks in business directories, with no reliable source coverage in which the company is a subject. As always, Wikipedia is not a free advertising directory — a company does not become entitled to have an article on here just because its own self-published web presence verifies that it exists, but must be the subject of media coverage to earn one.

Article about a book, which makes no substantive claim of notability besides "book that exists" and is based entirely on WP:PRIMARYSOURCES: the source for the existence of the book is the author's profile on the website of his PR agent, and the sourcing for "two of the stories in it were previously published in multi-author anthologies" is the publication details of one of those anthologies and the Amazon.com sales page of the other. This is not how a book gets a Wikipedia article — it would qualify for one if it could be sourced to reliable source media coverage about the book, but every book that exists is not automatically eligible for a Wikipedia article just because its existence can be verified in primary sources.

NOTE: While Dr. Williams did not win an Order of Canada, Magnolia677 deleted a variety of Order of Canada redlinks from lists of people for Peel. I posted on his or her talk page that the Order of Canada was the country's second highest civilian honour, implying to him to back off. Regardless of whether this article qualifies as notable, this users should win an "out of spite AfD nomination" barnstar. -- Zanimum ( talk) 14:37, 4 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Keep, or at least move to the draft namespace, passes WP:POLITICIAN, he just exists in a pre-Internet age, in a jurisdiction that's been randomly missed by newspaper digitization projects. He was still being quoted by the Toronto Star, Canada's highest circulation newspaper, on topics at least as late as 2003, thirty years after retiring as a politician. -- Zanimum ( talk) 14:41, 4 February 2016 (UTC) reply
"Quoted on topics" doesn't make a person suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in and of itself. It might suggest the possibility that enough coverage of the person in other contexts might exist to make him notable — but giving soundbite in coverage of other topics doesn't make him notable in and of itself, because he isn't the subject of what he's saying. And Brampton is within the local coverage area of the Toronto Star — so it doesn't confer the depth of coverage needed to make a smalltown mayor notable just because coverage exists. Especially not when I've got access to this magic tool called ProQuest, which enables me to determine exactly how much useful pre-Internet sourcing actually exists: I can pull out TorStar sourcing all the way back to 1894 (and no, that's not a typo — I really do mean the 19th century). I'll detail below, but you've massively overstated the case. Bearcat ( talk) 04:10, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Unfortunately, there are these nifty little things called news archive databases, which magically turn pre-internet-era sourcing into internet-accessible sourcing. So per ProQuest, what we've actually got here for "quoted in the Toronto Star in 2003" is (a) a one-line soundbite about his opinion on the location of the Brampton Civic Hospital, and (b) a one-line soundbite about his opinion of the Dufferin—Peel—Wellington—Grey by-election in 2002, where the entire quote from him is "there really hasn't been a hell of a lot to talk about". Neither of these offer any evidence of enduring notability. And for coverage during his career I get just 11 hits, of which one is the presence of his name in an employment ad for a job opening at Chinguacousy's municipal office, and all of the others are pure "smalltown mayor does smalltown mayor things and gets WP:ROUTINE coverage for them in the local newspaper" — none of them offer any real substance to make him more notable than the norm for smalltown mayors. So WP:NPOL #3 has not been passed here, because that criterion cannot just be claimed as true. It must be reliably sourced as true — and the sourceability here simply does not cut it, if ten routine mentions of his name, and no coverage that counts as substantive, in the nearest local daily newspaper is the best I can find. Delete. Bearcat ( talk) 04:32, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete because sources are simply not sufficient. But, User:Bearcat, I know that you're inundated with these campaign articles, and maybe you have looked at the track records of the editors weighing in here and know that they are folks who should know better, but let's try to hold the snark. After all, I assume that most editors creating and defending candidate articles are carried away by enthusiasm for a candidate, and participating in an election campaign is an admirable and honorable thing, even when it does lead to the WP equivalent of littering the town with campaign posters. E.M.Gregory ( talk) 19:33, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
Well, for the record, this isn't an unelected candidate for office — it's a dead former smalltown mayor who never even attempted a run for higher office that I've been able to locate. The by-election soundbite I alluded to above was not quoting him as a candidate — it was quoting him as a voter and observer (which is even less of a basis for a notability claim than having been a candidate would be). And while I admit that my writing style can be blunt sometimes, I'm not seeing where I crossed any line into "snark" at all. YMMV. Bearcat ( talk) 19:43, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Passes notability points and sources are highly valid. Any world tour has to be big, and the venues are arenas which makes it a huge venture.

  • Comment. The sources in the article currently look to be mostly about the DVD release. Google News has a bunch of hits, but the English-language ones don't seem to be too compelling. For example, [5] from The Independent, which is basically just an announcement. There's also [6] from The Guardian, which, at the very bottom of the article, says they're the youngest act to play at Budokan. I don't really think that's enough. I'm a bit reluctant to outright vote to delete, though, because I'm not sure I'd be able to find Japanese coverage. I'd feel better if someone could comment about Japanese sources.

This is the remainder of a set of four articles created by User:Nyflod on paintings attributed to major artists but not attested to in the usual sort of sources for such things. One of these was deleted (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Actaeon mauled by his hounds) but for whatever reason the other three were never addressed.

  • Delete - Nothing quite meets WP:GNG criteria. Subject was a political candidate, but not elected. Subject contributed money to some political campaigns. Subject was involved with a company that was involved in a more famous company. Subject committed a crime.-- Rpclod ( talk) 20:54, 5 February 2016 (UTC) reply
References 1, 14, 15, 16 are patents, many duplicates, which give no indication of notability. References 2, 4, 6, 20, 27-31, 34-36, 39, 41-44, 46 all relate to the subject's prosecution and conviction for fraud and several are duplicates. Reference 45 only peripherally mentions the subject. Reference 3 is a twitter profile which gives no indication of notability. References 5, 12, 17, 18, 25, 32, 33, 37 are dead links. References 7 & 8 are identical and indicate that the subject was a Christian Democrat candidate, which gives no indication of notability. Reference 9 indicates that he is a criminal and a candidate. References 10 & 11 merely list the subject among other contributors. References 13, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 38, 40 do not list the subject at all. Reference 19 relates to a (failed) relaunch of Gizmondo in 2008. There is not enough here to meet notability standards. The subject was involved in a fraud that was covered in Danish press. He was also an unsuccessful politician.-- Rpclod ( talk) 01:57, 6 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - What's more, he doesn't have a Wikipedia entry in Danish or Swedish. If he's not notable enough to be written up in his home country, the place where all his business dealings and legal issues took place, he can't possibly merit inclusion in English Wikipedia.

  • Delete. The nominator flattered me by referring to my earlier comment here, and yes, I don't think the subject is notable. The only thing that I can find reliabe third-party sources about is the criminal record, especially in relation to the parliamentary candidacy, so that's what the article needs to focus on if it's to be kept. But I don't think it should be kept: I call out, as typical tabloid exaggeration for effect, the claim in the Aftonbladet reference [11] that Ljungman is such a well-known financial criminal. (I live in Sweden and follow the news, and I had never heard of him.) Aftonbladet tends to be sensationalist (see the criticism section of our article on it), and also has a political angle. It's part owned by the Swedish Trade Union Confederation, which appoints the paper's political editor. The Christian Democrats party, on whose election ticket Mikael Ljungman was a candidate, are unlikely to get good press in Aftonbladet. It's all in the day's work for them to emphasize that the CD party has a 'notorious' criminal in their ranks — especially at the time of the run-up to an election. We should be aware that this source has an interest in aggrandizing the criminal fame of Ljungman.
Mikael Ljungman was created as a promotional stub in 2008 by User:Truthmaker1. Two SPAs with equally promotional/whitewashing agendas have since been blocked as socks of Truthmaker1. Now there's a fourth SPA account editing the article, User:Tore N Johansson very much like them. (He's !voting Delete above; I formated your !vote for better visibility, Tore, hope you don't mind.) Yes, this article is more trouble to keep clean than it's worth. That's not a formal reason for deletion (my formal reason is lack of notability), but it weighs with me.

  • Keep, the article suffers from periodic attempts at whitewashing, but according to Aftonbladet, Ljungman is Sweden's best-known financial criminal, with significant media coverage in Aftonbladet, realtid.se, Berlingske and other reputable news sources. I do not think we should let the SPAs determine whether we can maintain an article on the subject. If necessary, protection and/or blocks of those engaged in worsening the article are more suitable options than just giving up and letting the SPAs destroy the page on a notable subject. Huon ( talk) 09:18, 8 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. The sourcing looks good enough for WP:GNG and WP:BLP, they cover more than one event (so there's no issue with WP:BIO1E) and the long-term nature of the coverage of his misdeeds is enough to meet WP:PERP. The special pleading above that we should ignore mainstream national-newspaper level sources because he has attracted political enemies (what politician doesn't?), because the newspapers have a bias (what newspaper doesn't?) or because his misdeeds were too sensational doesn't sway me. — David Eppstein ( talk) 23:49, 9 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Sourcing for that exists. It merely seemed efficient to group them this way.

If these four incidents shared a direct common thread (such as a single mastermind trying to make co-ordinated attacks), then I'd try to make a WP:GNG judgement; but since they don't, I'm simply going to say that the style is unencyclopedic and an article of this title will not be appropriate.

  • No, I disagree entirely. "ISIS-inspired" is a broad category which merely describes the ideology of the individuals involved. As per my example, unless there was a direct link such as common plotters attempting to make a series of co-ordinated attacks, then I maintain that the events are in all practical aspects (using practical by its precise definition "based on practice or action rather than theory or hypothesis" rather than practically's informal definition "almost completely") unrelated.

  • Delete, (edit: or merge) clear WP:SYNTH this is a collection of tangentially-related news stories grouped together via synthesis, with no coverage making any connection between them at all.

User:Aquillion I challenge you; I do not see at all any reason that this topic would not be notable. The events were covered in several news articles even after the events happened.

User:Aquillion References: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. By reading down that list, you can go ahead and assume that this article is notable; or at least its content is. I am highly in support of a merge! Philmonte101 😊😄😞 ( talk) 20:58, 19 February 2016 (UTC) reply
I wouldn't actually be opposed to a merge, since I feel that the standard for a sentence or two mentioning something on that article is lower than the standard for giving it its own article. They're synthesis here because putting them together like this carries the implication that there was a coordinated wave of New Years' attack plots by ISIS in 2015 in particular, which isn't really supported by any of the sources; but just throwing them onto a page about failed ISIS plots doesn't have that problem (although they'd need to be examined individually to make sure they qualify as 'genuine' ISIS plots and not copycats or something, but that can be handled on that page.) -- Aquillion ( talk) 00:56, 20 February 2016 (UTC) reply

I came across this as a speedy deletion, however there's just enough in the article to assert some notability since she was part of a reality TV show. The problem though, is that I really can't see where there's enough overall to truly justify her having an article on Wikipedia.

I can find multiple mentions of it on general sites which list all possible tourist attractions in an area, but nothing which indicates notability. It is often listed simply as 'Municipal Gallery of Ioannina'. There's no Greek-lang WP article on it, but there may be Greek sources I've missed. This has been tagged for notability for 8 years, hopefully we can get it resolved one way or the other. Boleyn ( talk) 09:38, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Someone who understands Greek might be able to indicate whether this is the same as the Municipal Ethnographic Museum of Ioannina (which according to wikipedia houses photographs and paintings). However, I haven't visited Greece for years and never got past first base with the language when I did.
If Municipal Art Gallery of Ioannina is a separate institution, I wonder if a more constructive solution might be to enter a request at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Greece for someone to extend the entry.

Hi, Charles01, a request was put in to Wikiproject Greece about this and several similar articles on Greek museums and galleries, as it was on Wikiproject Museums.

Dr. Blofeld, I seem to be in the minority on this one, but that's OK. I trust the AfD process to come out with a consensus on each one. Several of the museum/gallery articles have been deleted, one at AfD at the moment seems non-notable and that's the way its AfD is heading. You know well I have no objection to stubs, including ones as short as these, as I have created thousands of stubs myself. I have little interest in whether it is expanded (it's always nice, but not something I'm concerned about). My concern is its notability, which has been in question for an extremely long time. FOr the third time, I repeat that I am not convinced on this one, but it's OK with me that others disagree. Boleyn ( talk) 12:32, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Honestly, given the article title, I don't think it's a viable redirect given how it's unlikely anyone would place spaces before and after "Vevo". If this was something like "Most viewed Taylor Swift videos" then perhaps that would have been a viable redirect, but this appears to not be the case for this article. Also, adding viewcounts to the discography article section on music videos probably wouldn't make sense given how they would have to be updated regularly and in any case is probably indiscriminate information.

You'd be surprised how many editors there are who just love updating numbers like these. It's not even a baggage, it's like a joy.

I came across this as an A7 speedy, which it doesn't qualify for since it's a book series. This doesn't appear to be notable, as a search brings up nothing to establish that it's notable enough for an article nor that the author (whose article I recently speedied) would be notable enough for an article either.

WP:BLP of a writer and photographer, whose claims of notability for both endeavours are tied entirely to unsourced assertions of popularity on social media rather than anything that would pass WP:NMUSIC or WP:CREATIVE. And there's virtually no reliable source coverage here, with the referencing based almost entirely on unreliable sources like Myspace, Shazam, last.fm, SoundCloud, ReverbNation and YouTube. The only thing here that lifts him even slightly into the realm of RS coverage is a Q&A-style interview on The Huffington Post -- but interviews represent the subject talking about himself, not independent third party coverage, and hence may not be used to bring the WP:GNG in and of themselves, but only for supplementary confirmation of facts after GNG has already been met. All of which means that nothing here is substantive enough, or sourced well enough, to get him a Wikipedia article at this time. Delete. Bearcat ( talk) 04:25, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Now article has been improved by me by removing praising words, adding more information and citations. -- 150.129.29.104 ( talk) 13:57, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Yes, I read the references. She may meet the GNG but there is an additional requirement: WP:CREATIVE. That guideline exists precisely because artists and related professions tend to get PR-based articles for individual exhibitions or works--in every country, India not excluded--, and it is necessary to have a more objective criterion also. There is no evidence his work is regarded as important by his peers; he originated no important to concept or technique;he has not produced a major body of work that has attracted significant critical notice; nor is it part of a a major museum's collection. DGG ( talk ) 00:39, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • The problem from my point of view is not being part of major museum collection, but the lack of any exhibition, that is not part of commercial galleries. Nowadays the museums tend not to extend their collections, but to held temporary exhibitions. Especially in photography world, you almost can't find any major museum with significant collection. But a notable artist should at least have an exhibition in any public space, either gallery or museum, which I can't find in this case. Also, agree that at least one professional review of portfolio would support the claim of notability. Hence, I tend to Delete. Arthistorian1977 ( talk) 09:38, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - Huh, This is heck, DGG. Maybe, You may be right, but it can be easily understood by anyone that all these citations cannot be just PR as you are describing it. Despite of several significant coverage from Indian Media, There are Indian Government sources, which can be considered highly reliable and authentic. And nobody bothered to read non-English coverage

Coverage received to the subject, clearly meets Basic criteria of notability WP:GNG, WP:Creative

- Apart from works for Bollywood celebrities and business tycoon, Artist has done restoration for Singapore Art Museum (SAM), a national museum and one of the major tourist attractions in Singapore.

- Restoration and fresco painting projects to his credit including famous architectural heritage sites in India such as the City Palace, Jaipur and Jama Masjid.

Source : Here, Daily Bhaskar, an Indian Hindi-language daily newspaper that is now the largest circulated daily newspaper of India (Audit Bureau of Circulations)

- His collaboration with Make in India, an initiate of Government of India.

Sources : Indian government website, Please find in the article.

As significant coverage from from DNA India, Daily Mail, Times of India, India Today, Yahoo News, Daily Bhaskar, Mid Day, Indian Express, Outlook India, NDTV India, News Nation, Afternoon, Marwar India, Bollywood Hungama, Deccan Herald etc received to Sharma, is enough to prove WP:GNG.So that article can be kept.-- 103.195.248.92 ( talk) 10:31, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Comment Problem I see that, for example, I didn't find any mention of him in connection with Singapore Art Museum restoration project. Also, I've translated the article you mentioned, and it's the same text, which is copy pasted in other articles over and over again, which makes the claim of it being promotional stronger. Significant coverage per WP:ARTIST has to have multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, which I don't see in all these articles. Working with notable celebrities does not make one a notable. Arthistorian1977 ( talk) 11:43, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply
Comment There is clearly mention of him in Daily Bhaskar, That he has done restoration work for Singapore Art Museum. I think, It would be more better if reference checked by the person, who knows Hindi well.

In the same news of Daily Bhaskar, It is also clearly mentioned about his restoration and gold leafing work for City Palace, Jaipur, Havelis of Udaipur and Kishangarh, Jain Temple and Jama Masjid. - He is the only artist who has done 3D Pichwai of Shrinathji, no one has attempted before. As mentioned in DNA India's Interview. - He has introduced new form of Tanjore Painting, That is Refined 24carat Gold Tanjore Painting, in which Tanjore and miniature art has been combined. He embellishes with Real 24 carat Gold in Painting, which was used to do by artist in old days. - He is considered one of the important artist who is known for making traditional Indian Art alive. His work mainly based on Indian Art forms, which is now perishing. Known for his Tanjore works and as the only artist nurturing miniature art in India. Source : Reference can be found in News coverage and even in Indian government websites; Times of India, here, DNA, here.

Here I want to correct you that the subject is not working with notable celebrities but as an artist, He is working and painting for Bollywood celebrities and business tycoons of India. In your point of view, This may not make him notable, but In this case, For Indian society, a painter who is working for big celebrities and illustrious business families of India such as Ambani, Birla, Singhania, Piramal, L.N. Mittal, Burmans, Bajaj etc, became subject of interest and attention for Indian media and its audience, as it is covered in many news reference cited in the article, which must be considered.

I just noted your previous comment, where you mentioned about lack of non commercial or exhibitions in public space, either gallery or museum, which is false. As you agrees that his portfolio supports the claim of notability. Yes it is. Wikipedia works as per norms. We do not need to make our own rules. Significant coverage and portfolio supports his notability.

Here I'm trying to answer of your question;

- Artist has done, exhibition at Academy of Fine Arts, Kolkata in 2005. Source can be fund in the Daily Bhaskar, here.

- He held exhibition in Nehru Centre, London in May 2001 , Terrace Gallery, Sussex, England in 1996. Source : Official website of Suvigya Sharma. (Note: This were quite old exhibitions, maybe this is the reason i could not find any reliable source about this. I was not going to mention about this, but when you question about his gallery, public or non commercial exhibition. I find appropriate to mention about this.)

- Exhibition in Artisans Gallery at Kala Ghoda in 2013. Source : Artisans Gallery, here.

- Recently, after AFD, In February, Government of India celebrated Make In India Week, in Mumbai, which was inaugurated by India's Prime Minister Honorable Narendra Modi. For the event Make In India Week (February 13 to 18), Suvigya Sharma was officially chosen by the Govt and showcased his art work.

  • While there are some circumstances where even a self-published book can be enough to get a writer into Wikipedia, they're pretty rarefied and depend on the ability to source the topic over WP:GNG ( Terry Fallis, who won a notable literary award for a self-published first novel, is the textbook example of how this can happen — and the book promptly got bought up by a major publishing imprint which also released his followup works anyway, so his notability didn't actually stay dependent on self-published work for very long.) But the sourcing here doesn't cut it: it's all primary sources, deadlinks and small-market weekly newspapers which can't carry notability, with no evidence of solidly reliable source coverage shown. A writer does not gain an automatic entitlement to keep a poorly sourced article just because she exists; a valid notability claim under WP:AUTHOR, and valid sourcing to support it, have to be shown. Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when her notability and sourceability improve. Bearcat ( talk) 22:49, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Unacceptable sourcing for a Wikipedia article, pretty much right across the board. Going over them one by one: #1 and #2 = interviews on local radio programs. Interviews with the subject, in any format, are acceptable for some supplementary confirmation of facts after WP:GNG has already been met, but cannot count toward the meeting of GNG as they represent the subject talking about herself. And both of them are on single-market local radio programs, not national ones broadcast by the entire CBC Radio or Ici Première networks, so claiming that the interviews were broadcast nationally would be wrong. #3 and #4 = community weekly newspapers, not widely distributed enough to count toward GNG. Again acceptable for supplementary confirmation of facts after GNG has been met, but not able to assist in establishing the meeting of GNG. #5 = not media, but a press release on the website of an affiliated organization — and the bylined author is the subject's own husband, which would disqualify it as WP:COI even if it were in real media. #6 = WP:BLOGS don't count as reliable sourcing. #7 = not media, but a press release on the website of a school board. #8 = BLOGS. #9 = not media coverage, but a user-generated database of quotations from her own work, which anybody can add themselves to. #10 = interview on a blog, disqualified by what I've already said about both interviews and blogs.
And if you're going to claim notability because library holdings, it takes a lot more than five library holdings to get there — and regardless of the notability claim being made, none of Wikipedia's inclusion standards can ever be passed just by asserting that they've been passed. An inclusion criterion is passed or failed on the quality of the reliable source coverage you can provide to support the accuracy of the claim to passage — but you have yet to show any acceptable sourcing at all.

A while ago, I created his page just because he had one on the Japanese Wikipedia, but now I've realized he isn't really notable and that the Japanese Wikipedia has different notability guidelines.

Subject dosen't appear to meet general notability guidelines as laid out in WP:42. Per WP:NPOL, just being an unelected candidate for office does not automatically confer notability. The sources in the article are all either primary or non- rs. I searched for better sources, and was unable to find evidence of significant coverage of the subject in secondary reliable sources.

  • Redirect to Libertarian Party presidential primaries, 2016. If he wins the Libertarian nomination, that will probably bring him to a level of being notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 21:24, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply
    • Mr Petersen does not conform to the foundation and primary principle of non-aggression stated in the Libertarian Party bylaws, the party platform, the Statement of Principles, and the pledge of non-aggression that all Party members must sign when they join. There is little chance that the Party delegates will nominate him as it will be largely contested. Buncoshark 15:43, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

I have put many hours in researching and learning about Wikipedia, so I could make Austin an appropriate page. Austin is certainly notable, he is consistantly in either first or second place in the polls. And his competitor Gary Johnson has a campaign page. I'm a Libertarian. I am just seeking fair coverage of candidates. The Libertarian primaries are next month(March 15) We will be having our first nationally televised debate on Fox Business with John Stossel, and Austin will be on it. If there is something I can do to fix it, let me know. Or could we at least keep his page on here until it is decided whether he is our nominee or not. Hezymundo ( talk) 20:54, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
@ Hezymundo: I sympathize, but the difference is that Gary Johnson was a governor for eight years, and had plenty of coverage during that time. He also received a lot of coverage for his 2012 presidential run. It's not necessarily fair, but Wikipedia is supposed to follow the sources, not get ahead of them. Check out WP:GNG and WP:RS for information about what's required here. — Tourchiest talk edits 22:11, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
@ Tourchiest: Thank you for replying. I understand. So after the primaries, IF he were to succeed, I can recreate the page? Also, can I edit the Libertarian Primaries page to include a little biography about him? Neutral of course. Hezymundo ( talk) 22:44, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
No, Austin Petersen is only "first or second place in the polls" in polls created by Petersen and his few followers. They pack the poll and then advertise while Petersen is ahead. once the other three Libertarian candidates move ahead of Petersen, they abandon that poll and make a new one, giving the illusion that he is ahead, but it's always until they make the poll public. Petersen cannot be the nominee as his opposition to the non-aggression principle calls for censorship of his bid. The Libertarian Party is not officially debating the point right now because they are getting publicity. It will be done during the convention. Buncoshark 23:23, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
That is a lot of speculating, and accusations for a page claiming to be neutral. If you want to debate me personally, please find me on an alternative source. Even on the Wikipedia page for Nap and Libertarians it is cited that it is controversial. Hezymundo ( talk) 01:28, 19 February 2016 (UTC) reply
Actually, I've already seen the Party bylaw that talks about how Petersen can lose his bid for nomination. The issue here is not whether the NAP is "controversial," but that Petersen is not abiding by Party regulations. My point with you is that those reports about Petersen being ahead in polls is fictitious (see my explanation above). Buncoshark 01:49, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

Poorly sourced article about a company, which has a definite advertorial slant to it and was created by one of its own founders (thus violating WP:COI). The sourcing here is entirely to primary sources and simple namechecks in business directories, with no reliable source coverage in which the company is a subject. As always, Wikipedia is not a free advertising directory — a company does not become entitled to have an article on here just because its own self-published web presence verifies that it exists, but must be the subject of media coverage to earn one.

Article about a book, which makes no substantive claim of notability besides "book that exists" and is based entirely on WP:PRIMARYSOURCES: the source for the existence of the book is the author's profile on the website of his PR agent, and the sourcing for "two of the stories in it were previously published in multi-author anthologies" is the publication details of one of those anthologies and the Amazon.com sales page of the other. This is not how a book gets a Wikipedia article — it would qualify for one if it could be sourced to reliable source media coverage about the book, but every book that exists is not automatically eligible for a Wikipedia article just because its existence can be verified in primary sources.

Fails WP:BIO; little depth of coverage in reliable sources. Fails WP:ANYBIO; appears to have made no widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record. Fails WP:POLITICIAN. Magnolia677 ( talk) 21:53, 30 January 2016 (UTC) reply

  • A small township of tens of thousands of people, housing Bramalea, Canada's first satellite city, who had to negotiate its place within Brampton, which quickly became one of Canada's largest cities. -- Zanimum ( talk) 14:37, 4 February 2016 (UTC) reply

NOTE: While Dr. Williams did not win an Order of Canada, Magnolia677 deleted a variety of Order of Canada redlinks from lists of people for Peel. I posted on his or her talk page that the Order of Canada was the country's second highest civilian honour, implying to him to back off. Regardless of whether this article qualifies as notable, this users should win an "out of spite AfD nomination" barnstar. -- Zanimum ( talk) 14:37, 4 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Keep, or at least move to the draft namespace, passes WP:POLITICIAN, he just exists in a pre-Internet age, in a jurisdiction that's been randomly missed by newspaper digitization projects. He was still being quoted by the Toronto Star, Canada's highest circulation newspaper, on topics at least as late as 2003, thirty years after retiring as a politician. -- Zanimum ( talk) 14:41, 4 February 2016 (UTC) reply
"Quoted on topics" doesn't make a person suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in and of itself. It might suggest the possibility that enough coverage of the person in other contexts might exist to make him notable — but giving soundbite in coverage of other topics doesn't make him notable in and of itself, because he isn't the subject of what he's saying. And Brampton is within the local coverage area of the Toronto Star — so it doesn't confer the depth of coverage needed to make a smalltown mayor notable just because coverage exists. Especially not when I've got access to this magic tool called ProQuest, which enables me to determine exactly how much useful pre-Internet sourcing actually exists: I can pull out TorStar sourcing all the way back to 1894 (and no, that's not a typo — I really do mean the 19th century). I'll detail below, but you've massively overstated the case. Bearcat ( talk) 04:10, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Unfortunately, there are these nifty little things called news archive databases, which magically turn pre-internet-era sourcing into internet-accessible sourcing. So per ProQuest, what we've actually got here for "quoted in the Toronto Star in 2003" is (a) a one-line soundbite about his opinion on the location of the Brampton Civic Hospital, and (b) a one-line soundbite about his opinion of the Dufferin—Peel—Wellington—Grey by-election in 2002, where the entire quote from him is "there really hasn't been a hell of a lot to talk about". Neither of these offer any evidence of enduring notability. And for coverage during his career I get just 11 hits, of which one is the presence of his name in an employment ad for a job opening at Chinguacousy's municipal office, and all of the others are pure "smalltown mayor does smalltown mayor things and gets WP:ROUTINE coverage for them in the local newspaper" — none of them offer any real substance to make him more notable than the norm for smalltown mayors. So WP:NPOL #3 has not been passed here, because that criterion cannot just be claimed as true. It must be reliably sourced as true — and the sourceability here simply does not cut it, if ten routine mentions of his name, and no coverage that counts as substantive, in the nearest local daily newspaper is the best I can find. Delete. Bearcat ( talk) 04:32, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete because sources are simply not sufficient. But, User:Bearcat, I know that you're inundated with these campaign articles, and maybe you have looked at the track records of the editors weighing in here and know that they are folks who should know better, but let's try to hold the snark. After all, I assume that most editors creating and defending candidate articles are carried away by enthusiasm for a candidate, and participating in an election campaign is an admirable and honorable thing, even when it does lead to the WP equivalent of littering the town with campaign posters. E.M.Gregory ( talk) 19:33, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply
Well, for the record, this isn't an unelected candidate for office — it's a dead former smalltown mayor who never even attempted a run for higher office that I've been able to locate. The by-election soundbite I alluded to above was not quoting him as a candidate — it was quoting him as a voter and observer (which is even less of a basis for a notability claim than having been a candidate would be). And while I admit that my writing style can be blunt sometimes, I'm not seeing where I crossed any line into "snark" at all. YMMV. Bearcat ( talk) 19:43, 18 February 2016 (UTC) reply

There is no in-depth coverage of this tour (not individual concerts, but tour) that make this notable per WP:NTOUR. It happened, and we know it, and we could possibly have a sentence or two in the main article, but this was not a notable tour. Drmies ( talk) 18:34, 29 January 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Passes notability points and sources are highly valid. Any world tour has to be big, and the venues are arenas which makes it a huge venture. To merge all the information onto the Babymetal article would be too long and too offtopic since it was acknowledging a tour. Choicerpex ( talk) 19:05, 29 January 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Keep I looked at other bands and pretty much all the tours of a big band are seemingly articled separately like this — like their albums or even singles.

  • Comment. The sources in the article currently look to be mostly about the DVD release. Google News has a bunch of hits, but the English-language ones don't seem to be too compelling. For example, [5] from The Independent, which is basically just an announcement. There's also [6] from The Guardian, which, at the very bottom of the article, says they're the youngest act to play at Budokan. I don't really think that's enough. I'm a bit reluctant to outright vote to delete, though, because I'm not sure I'd be able to find Japanese coverage. I'd feel better if someone could comment about Japanese sources. Maybe they go more into detail about the Budokan record? NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 00:17, 3 February 2016 (UTC) reply

This is the remainder of a set of four articles created by User:Nyflod on paintings attributed to major artists but not attested to in the usual sort of sources for such things. One of these was deleted (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Actaeon mauled by his hounds) but for whatever reason the other three were never addressed. All four of these were also created on the Italian Wikipedia, and all four have been deleted there. In any case the problem is the same for these as in the first case: it is unconscionable that works by major artists should be hard to document in English.

Article is about a seemingly unknown artist who, by the author's own admission, "little is known about her private or professional life", exhibited only locally and "was not recorded as a member of the Society of Women Artists". Article is cited only to birth/death notices and original research in archival records. Talk page is filed with speculation and guesswork. The list of known works show no evidence she was prolific or well known either.

  • Delete - What's more, he doesn't have a Wikipedia entry in Danish or Swedish. If he's not notable enough to be written up in his home country, the place where all his business dealings and legal issues took place, he can't possibly merit inclusion in English Wikipedia.

  • Delete. The nominator flattered me by referring to my earlier comment here, and yes, I don't think the subject is notable. The only thing that I can find reliabe third-party sources about is the criminal record, especially in relation to the parliamentary candidacy, so that's what the article needs to focus on if it's to be kept. But I don't think it should be kept: I call out, as typical tabloid exaggeration for effect, the claim in the Aftonbladet reference [11] that Ljungman is such a well-known financial criminal. (I live in Sweden and follow the news, and I had never heard of him.) Aftonbladet tends to be sensationalist (see the criticism section of our article on it), and also has a political angle. It's part owned by the Swedish Trade Union Confederation, which appoints the paper's political editor. The Christian Democrats party, on whose election ticket Mikael Ljungman was a candidate, are unlikely to get good press in Aftonbladet. It's all in the day's work for them to emphasize that the CD party has a 'notorious' criminal in their ranks — especially at the time of the run-up to an election. We should be aware that this source has an interest in aggrandizing the criminal fame of Ljungman.
Mikael Ljungman was created as a promotional stub in 2008 by User:Truthmaker1. Two SPAs with equally promotional/whitewashing agendas have since been blocked as socks of Truthmaker1. Now there's a fourth SPA account editing the article, User:Tore N Johansson very much like them. (He's !voting Delete above; I formated your !vote for better visibility, Tore, hope you don't mind.) Yes, this article is more trouble to keep clean than it's worth. That's not a formal reason for deletion (my formal reason is lack of notability), but it weighs with me.

  • Keep, the article suffers from periodic attempts at whitewashing, but according to Aftonbladet, Ljungman is Sweden's best-known financial criminal, with significant media coverage in Aftonbladet, realtid.se, Berlingske and other reputable news sources. I do not think we should let the SPAs determine whether we can maintain an article on the subject. If necessary, protection and/or blocks of those engaged in worsening the article are more suitable options than just giving up and letting the SPAs destroy the page on a notable subject. Huon ( talk) 09:18, 8 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. The sourcing looks good enough for WP:GNG and WP:BLP, they cover more than one event (so there's no issue with WP:BIO1E) and the long-term nature of the coverage of his misdeeds is enough to meet WP:PERP.

If these four incidents shared a direct common thread (such as a single mastermind trying to make co-ordinated attacks), then I'd try to make a WP:GNG judgement; but since they don't, I'm simply going to say that the style is unencyclopedic and an article of this title will not be appropriate.

  • No, I disagree entirely. "ISIS-inspired" is a broad category which merely describes the ideology of the individuals involved.

User:Aquillion I challenge you; I do not see at all any reason that this topic would not be notable. The events were covered in several news articles even after the events happened.

I wouldn't actually be opposed to a merge, since I feel that the standard for a sentence or two mentioning something on that article is lower than the standard for giving it its own article. They're synthesis here because putting them together like this carries the implication that there was a coordinated wave of New Years' attack plots by ISIS in 2015 in particular, which isn't really supported by any of the sources; but just throwing them onto a page about failed ISIS plots doesn't have that problem (although they'd need to be examined individually to make sure they qualify as 'genuine' ISIS plots and not copycats or something, but that can be handled on that page.) -- Aquillion ( talk) 00:56, 20 February 2016 (UTC) reply

I came across this as a speedy deletion, however there's just enough in the article to assert some notability since she was part of a reality TV show. The problem though, is that I really can't see where there's enough overall to truly justify her having an article on Wikipedia.

I can find multiple mentions of it on general sites which list all possible tourist attractions in an area, but nothing which indicates notability. It is often listed simply as 'Municipal Gallery of Ioannina'. There's no Greek-lang WP article on it, but there may be Greek sources I've missed. This has been tagged for notability for 8 years, hopefully we can get it resolved one way or the other. Boleyn ( talk) 09:38, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Someone who understands Greek might be able to indicate whether this is the same as the Municipal Ethnographic Museum of Ioannina (which according to wikipedia houses photographs and paintings). However, I haven't visited Greece for years and never got past first base with the language when I did.
If Municipal Art Gallery of Ioannina is a separate institution, I wonder if a more constructive solution might be to enter a request at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Greece for someone to extend the entry.

Hi, Charles01, a request was put in to Wikiproject Greece about this and several similar articles on Greek museums and galleries, as it was on Wikiproject Museums. It didn't get any response and it's been months now. As it stands, we can't verify any notability, no one has found supporting sources and no notability is even asserted in article.

Dr. Blofeld, I seem to be in the minority on this one, but that's OK. I trust the AfD process to come out with a consensus on each one. Several of the museum/gallery articles have been deleted, one at AfD at the moment seems non-notable and that's the way its AfD is heading. You know well I have no objection to stubs, including ones as short as these, as I have created thousands of stubs myself. I have little interest in whether it is expanded (it's always nice, but not something I'm concerned about). My concern is its notability, which has been in question for an extremely long time. FOr the third time, I repeat that I am not convinced on this one, but it's OK with me that others disagree. Boleyn ( talk) 12:32, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Honestly, given the article title, I don't think it's a viable redirect given how it's unlikely anyone would place spaces before and after "Vevo". If this was something like "Most viewed Taylor Swift videos" then perhaps that would have been a viable redirect, but this appears to not be the case for this article. Also, adding viewcounts to the discography article section on music videos probably wouldn't make sense given how they would have to be updated regularly and in any case is probably indiscriminate information.

You'd be surprised how many editors there are who just love updating numbers like these. It's not even a baggage, it's like a joy.

WP:BLP of a writer and photographer, whose claims of notability for both endeavours are tied entirely to unsourced assertions of popularity on social media rather than anything that would pass WP:NMUSIC or WP:CREATIVE. And there's virtually no reliable source coverage here, with the referencing based almost entirely on unreliable sources like Myspace, Shazam, last.fm, SoundCloud, ReverbNation and YouTube. The only thing here that lifts him even slightly into the realm of RS coverage is a Q&A-style interview on The Huffington Post -- but interviews represent the subject talking about himself, not independent third party coverage, and hence may not be used to bring the WP:GNG in and of themselves, but only for supplementary confirmation of facts after GNG has already been met.

The media overages he received fulfills Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines and Wikipedia:Notability (people). The media coverage clearly suggest that he meets the Wikipedia's Notability guidelines. If you think there is praising words in article, then it should be removed, the article should not to be deleted.-- 150.129.29.104 ( talk) 05:04, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Now article has been improved by me by removing praising words, adding more information and citations. -- 150.129.29.104 ( talk) 13:57, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Yes, I read the references. She may meet the GNG but there is an additional requirement: WP:CREATIVE. That guideline exists precisely because artists and related professions tend to get PR-based articles for individual exhibitions or works--in every country, India not excluded--, and it is necessary to have a more objective criterion also. There is no evidence his work is regarded as important by his peers; he originated no important to concept or technique;he has not produced a major body of work that has attracted significant critical notice; nor is it part of a a major museum's collection. DGG ( talk ) 00:39, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • The problem from my point of view is not being part of major museum collection, but the lack of any exhibition, that is not part of commercial galleries. Nowadays the museums tend not to extend their collections, but to held temporary exhibitions. Especially in photography world, you almost can't find any major museum with significant collection. But a notable artist should at least have an exhibition in any public space, either gallery or museum, which I can't find in this case. Also, agree that at least one professional review of portfolio would support the claim of notability. Hence, I tend to Delete. Arthistorian1977 ( talk) 09:38, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - Huh, This is heck, DGG. Maybe, You may be right, but it can be easily understood by anyone that all these citations cannot be just PR as you are describing it. Despite of several significant coverage from Indian Media, There are Indian Government sources, which can be considered highly reliable and authentic. And nobody bothered to read non-English coverage

Coverage received to the subject, clearly meets Basic criteria of notability WP:GNG, WP:Creative

- Apart from works for Bollywood celebrities and business tycoon, Artist has done restoration for Singapore Art Museum (SAM), a national museum and one of the major tourist attractions in Singapore.

- Restoration and fresco painting projects to his credit including famous architectural heritage sites in India such as the City Palace, Jaipur and Jama Masjid.

Source : Here, Daily Bhaskar, an Indian Hindi-language daily newspaper that is now the largest circulated daily newspaper of India (Audit Bureau of Circulations)

- His collaboration with Make in India, an initiate of Government of India.

Sources : Indian government website, Please find in the article.

As significant coverage from from DNA India, Daily Mail, Times of India, India Today, Yahoo News, Daily Bhaskar, Mid Day, Indian Express, Outlook India, NDTV India, News Nation, Afternoon, Marwar India, Bollywood Hungama, Deccan Herald etc received to Sharma, is enough to prove WP:GNG.So that article can be kept.-- 103.195.248.92 ( talk) 10:31, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Comment Problem I see that, for example, I didn't find any mention of him in connection with Singapore Art Museum restoration project. Also, I've translated the article you mentioned, and it's the same text, which is copy pasted in other articles over and over again, which makes the claim of it being promotional stronger. Significant coverage per WP:ARTIST has to have multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, which I don't see in all these articles. Working with notable celebrities does not make one a notable. Arthistorian1977 ( talk) 11:43, 16 February 2016 (UTC) reply
Comment There is clearly mention of him in Daily Bhaskar, That he has done restoration work for Singapore Art Museum. I think, It would be more better if reference checked by the person, who knows Hindi well.

In the same news of Daily Bhaskar, It is also clearly mentioned about his restoration and gold leafing work for City Palace, Jaipur, Havelis of Udaipur and Kishangarh, Jain Temple and Jama Masjid. - He is the only artist who has done 3D Pichwai of Shrinathji, no one has attempted before. As mentioned in DNA India's Interview. - He has introduced new form of Tanjore Painting, That is Refined 24carat Gold Tanjore Painting, in which Tanjore and miniature art has been combined. He embellishes with Real 24 carat Gold in Painting, which was used to do by artist in old days. - He is considered one of the important artist who is known for making traditional Indian Art alive. His work mainly based on Indian Art forms, which is now perishing. Known for his Tanjore works and as the only artist nurturing miniature art in India. Source : Reference can be found in News coverage and even in Indian government websites; Times of India, here, DNA, here.

Here I want to correct you that the subject is not working with notable celebrities but as an artist, He is working and painting for Bollywood celebrities and business tycoons of India. In your point of view, This may not make him notable, but In this case, For Indian society, a painter who is working for big celebrities and illustrious business families of India such as Ambani, Birla, Singhania, Piramal, L.N. Mittal, Burmans, Bajaj etc, became subject of interest and attention for Indian media and its audience, as it is covered in many news reference cited in the article, which must be considered.

I just noted your previous comment, where you mentioned about lack of non commercial or exhibitions in public space, either gallery or museum, which is false. As you agrees that his portfolio supports the claim of notability. Yes it is. Wikipedia works as per norms. We do not need to make our own rules. Significant coverage and portfolio supports his notability.

Here I'm trying to answer of your question;

- Artist has done, exhibition at Academy of Fine Arts, Kolkata in 2005. Source can be fund in the Daily Bhaskar, here.

- He held exhibition in Nehru Centre, London in May 2001 , Terrace Gallery, Sussex, England in 1996. Source : Official website of Suvigya Sharma. (Note: This were quite old exhibitions, maybe this is the reason i could not find any reliable source about this. I was not going to mention about this, but when you question about his gallery, public or non commercial exhibition. I find appropriate to mention about this.)

- Exhibition in Artisans Gallery at Kala Ghoda in 2013. Source : Artisans Gallery, here.

- Recently, after AFD, In February, Government of India celebrated Make In India Week, in Mumbai, which was inaugurated by India's Prime Minister Honorable Narendra Modi. For the event Make In India Week (February 13 to 18), Suvigya Sharma was officially chosen by the Govt and showcased his art work.

  • While there are some circumstances where even a self-published book can be enough to get a writer into Wikipedia, they're pretty rarefied and depend on the ability to source the topic over WP:GNG ( Terry Fallis, who won a notable literary award for a self-published first novel, is the textbook example of how this can happen — and the book promptly got bought up by a major publishing imprint which also released his followup works anyway, so his notability didn't actually stay dependent on self-published work for very long.) But the sourcing here doesn't cut it: it's all primary sources, deadlinks and small-market weekly newspapers which can't carry notability, with no evidence of solidly reliable source coverage shown. A writer does not gain an automatic entitlement to keep a poorly sourced article just because she exists; a valid notability claim under WP:AUTHOR, and valid sourcing to support it, have to be shown. Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when her notability and sourceability improve. Bearcat ( talk) 22:49, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply

Unacceptable sourcing for a Wikipedia article, pretty much right across the board. Going over them one by one: #1 and #2 = interviews on local radio programs. Interviews with the subject, in any format, are acceptable for some supplementary confirmation of facts after WP:GNG has already been met, but cannot count toward the meeting of GNG as they represent the subject talking about herself. And both of them are on single-market local radio programs, not national ones broadcast by the entire CBC Radio or Ici Première networks, so claiming that the interviews were broadcast nationally would be wrong. #3 and #4 = community weekly newspapers, not widely distributed enough to count toward GNG. Again acceptable for supplementary confirmation of facts after GNG has been met, but not able to assist in establishing the meeting of GNG. #5 = not media, but a press release on the website of an affiliated organization — and the bylined author is the subject's own husband, which would disqualify it as WP:COI even if it were in real media. #6 = WP:BLOGS don't count as reliable sourcing. #7 = not media, but a press release on the website of a school board. #8 = BLOGS. #9 = not media coverage, but a user-generated database of quotations from her own work, which anybody can add themselves to. #10 = interview on a blog, disqualified by what I've already said about both interviews and blogs.
And if you're going to claim notability because library holdings, it takes a lot more than five library holdings to get there — and regardless of the notability claim being made, none of Wikipedia's inclusion standards can ever be passed just by asserting that they've been passed. An inclusion criterion is passed or failed on the quality of the reliable source coverage you can provide to support the accuracy of the claim to passage — but you have yet to show any acceptable sourcing at all.

  • Comment The game does appear to have fallen into absolute obscurity, and even back in the day doesn't seem to have even been a notable browser game. The sources are all from 10 years ago, for the exception of one book from 2009. Other games the 2009 book names are highly obscure titles like "Win Win Manager", "Parachute Flight" (2008) and "War of Warcraft"; last one obviously an attempt at World of Warcraft. -- Mr. Magoo ( talk) 06:47, 13 February 2016 (UTC) reply
