The subfamily is no longer considered monotypic (see here). As a result, redirecting to a lower taxon is no longer warranted. Although Joe Roe says "No harm in keeping the redirect until someone can write an article", there is potential harm in keeping the redirect because it can mislead readers into thinking the taxon is still monophyletic.-- Leptictidium ( mt) 19:18, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

This article is in sorry shape, and will require a rewrite. Basically everything failed verification, but that's not an AfD-worthy offense. I nominate this for deletion because I don't believe either company here (because I have found nothing indicating that these two are in any way related) is notable enough for me to actually do said rewrite. For Board Administration, there is this, already in the article, that mentions the company exists and has a couple of client; this, also in the article, that mentions Wale founded this company along with a few other people; and this, discussing how the company and one of its clients fell out with each other. Three articles from two sources, all three of which are trivial coverage: the only one that is plausibly significant is the last one, but that focuses on Fat Trel, with only as much coverage of the Board Administration as pertains to that artist. As for Every Blue Moon, there's the three sources in the article (all from the same day), all three of which cover it very trivially (unless you want to argue that a page consisting only of two sentences and a quote constitutes significant coverage, which I do not), plus some other trivial coverage such as a SoundCloud station, and this thing that has nothing to do with the record label. Even if we considered them together (which we should not, because they aren't related), they fail GNG and WP:NCORP. Compassionate727 ( T· C) 23:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Even at the presidential level, non-winning candidates are still not granted an automatic inclusion freebie just for existing as candidates. Major party candidates typically receive enough coverage to clear WP:GNG regardless of whether they won or lost, and normally already have other preexisting notability claims for other reasons prior to running for president anyway — but minor or fringe candidates don't necessarily have either of those things, and "was a minor presidential candidate" is not a strong enough notability claim to exempt a minor or fringe candidate from having to have either of those things. But the references here are almost all primary sources that do not help to establish notability at all, and the only one that's actually media coverage is a blurb in her own hometown newspaper. That's not enough coverage to make a fringe candidate notable regardless of what office she was running for. Bearcat ( talk) 18:21, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Paulina Rubio discography and speedy close this discussion. Deletion is not an option since we definitely want to keep a redirect at worst. And if the single eventually becomes notable (not that I really expect that), it will be easy to get the material back from the redirect's history. As for the fact that the redirecting has been undone twice, well I suggest we just insist. Pichpich ( talk) 23:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Wikipedia is not supposed to be a newspaper, and all the political issues mentioned in this article are covered perfectly better in other articles. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:26, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Comment I'm not so sure - it can have non-news aspects, and there is sufficient coverage (and vastly more) to let it do so. It does however need a new name - this one wouldn't help anyone either know what it means or find the article. Nosebagbear ( talk) 17:31, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
If someone can pin the topic as something other than everything the German government is having a problem with in 2018 that would be great. Right now I just see some unnecessary detail related to the European migrant crisis. That is not a good topic, that is news. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:34, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Looking at Talk:European_migrant_crisis#Merger_proposal and European migrant crisis (Finland), there could be room for a topic called European migrant crisis (Germany). Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:37, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Speedy keep Defective and unjustified nomination, absolutely no guideline is saying this. This article is extremely well sourced by many, many international WP:RS. This nomination sounds more like a dispute over disliked page content. And obviously no alternatives were considered by the nominator. And regarding the name, there may be redirects established, but it is definitely a government crisis and called this way by lots of sources.-- Greywin ( talk) 17:38, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
To clarify, I do like the page content, it is the topic is wrong and that cannot be fixed without making the topic different or deleting the topic and adding the content to a different topic, which is what I am proposing initially. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:42, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Greywin I disagree with their judgement, but to preempt their response, the policy that may apply would be WP:NOT, specifically WP:NOTNEWS. Strict sourcing wasn't stated by nom. Sourcing quality, especially analysis beyond reporting, allows the article to include non-news aspects. Nosebagbear ( talk) 17:44, 1 July 2018 (UTC) [n.b. edit clash, this comment does not respond to Frayae's comment - and apologies for pinging the wrong person!] reply
Well on that basis the best thing to do would be to stop this discussion to delete the topic and start the discussion to rename the topic, but I don't know how to do that. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:48, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
And in case it is not clear this is nothing to do with sourcing or notability, I don't doubt that the German government is reliably reported as having crisis, I can't see the encyclopedic value of putting all issues for a year in an article, that is running commentary based on date, because all crisis right now were also crisis in 2017, and 2016 and before... Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:52, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Unfortunately the nom does not mention why the topic should be "wrong" - and why this should be a reason to delete the article. This nomination is completely incomprehensible, as the article is much better sourced than a high percentage of comparable articles, so WP:NOTNEWS does in no way apply. But right now the nominator obviously admits that the nomination is the wrong instrument, so it is to be withdrawn and a renaming discussion can be started on the talk page.-- Greywin ( talk) 17:55, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Yes this nomination is withdrawn with rename discussion requested, but twinkle tool has no button to do withdraw, someone who knows how should be found to help. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:57, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • These are entirely surmountable problems, and while it may be a long time before anyone improves the article, it can still provide some readers with just what they're looking for. Deletion is not cleanup. Deleting the article will prevent an article ever being created on the subject. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:20, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply
    I'm sorry but I disagree completely. No original research is a fundamental policy for a reason, somebodies own opinions and views, entirely unsourced, are not remotely beneficial to the project and the way to surmount the problem of original research is to remove it - remove the OR from this article and you have virtually no article. People are more likely to write a decent article if they see a subject missing than they are to try rewrite a bad article. Also Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup is just an essay, as is Wikipedia:Blow it up and start over, neither is a catch-all.-- Jac16888 Talk 21:52, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete, with sadness. People have cared enough about her work to create and edit an article about her. However, persistent insertion of a statement that she has died, with only Reddit and a former colleague's Facebook post offered as sources, led me to note as the nominator has that I at least can find pretty much nothing about her in reliable sources. The article history also shows that she's been confused with an astrologer and novelist named Jodie Forrest (wiki source, but corrected by the subject), and I agree with this edit summary that that's probably the source of the birth date, for which no source seems to have been offered. (It was inserted here.) So we don't even have a sourced birthdate for this BLP, and the one we've had most of the time since 2011 is probably wrong. Yngvadottir ( talk) 16:36, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Season article for a club playing at the sixth tier (and the second level of semi-professional football). This clearly fails WP:NSEASONS and there is significant precedence that season articles are not notable even for clubs in the division above. The original prod was removed by the article creator with the rationale that this was "disrespectful towards the league and the clubs within the league" and that there "is a strong interest in this page from Darlington fans". Neither of these are valid reasons for keeping the article. Number 5 7 10:44, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Very very much WP:TOOSOON. The structure is so new that there is exactly one publication even mentioning it (Patriarchi et al. 2018)(the other references in the article are on ancillary topics). Uptake, coverage and general notability are nowhere near requirements at this point. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 09:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC) Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 09:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Thank you for your comment Elmidae. However, I think it differently. The fact that the article describing the introduction of dLight was published last month, makes it very recent, but certainly not insignificant to the point that it does not deserve being mentioned on Wikipedia. Uptake, coverage and general notability of the topic are outstanding with respect to its recent introduction: for verification of this you can look at the Altmetric scores of the article (Patriarchi et al. 2018), which is currently 264. In scholarly and scientific publishing, altmetrics are non-traditional bibliometrics proposed as an alternative or complement to more traditional citation impact metrics, such as impact factor and h-index. A score of 264, sets the article describing dLight in the top 5% of all research outputs scored by Altmetric. I would say that speaks out for its uptake, coverage and general notability. -- Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST) Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST)

I'm sorry, but looking at the metrics, I don't see the kind of coverage that is required for a Wikipedia article subject. Picked up by two news outlets, blogged twice, tweeted a couple hundred times - that's not widespread, in-depth coverage. The study hasn't even been cited in another article yet. What we do here is tertiary coverage: we summarize what others (secondary sources) have said about a subject. The subject being this research finding, we require that secondary sources (news articles, other papers) must have done their thing first. That hasn't happened here yet. WP is not the platform to give exposure to these findings, it is the platform to report on findings that have received exposure. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 17:27, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

I understand your general point. However i personally consider the two news outlets that publicly introduce and discuss the article as verifiable secondary sources. If you have proof to discredit my claim, please provide it. What it all comes down to is: are there exact requirements for the notability of a subject before it can be picked up on a Wikipedia page? If there is not a specifc rule or a threshold number of secondary sources, then i still believe my article meets the criteria for being published in Wikipedia. -- Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 10:48, 1 July 2018 (PST)

There is no codified set of requirements for findings of scientific research in particular; the general notability guidelines apply. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 18:03, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per nom. In fact it also fails by just general notability rules, as there don't seem to be any suitable sources at all for this iteration (vs the 1963 film), let alone ones that indicate principal photography has commenced Nosebagbear ( talk) 10:48, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Upcoming films are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because IMDb and a Twitter tweet from the director technically verify that the film is in the production pipeline — as far as IMDb is concerned, for example, as of right now the film is still only in pre-production. And the inclusion test isn't even just "filming has started", either — for the vast majority of films, notability hinges on commercial and/or festival release, and only a very select few especially high profile projects that get constant coverage throughout the process, such as the Star Wars franchise, get to claim notability just because filming is in progress. So no prejudice against recreation if and when the film is actually in release and getting reviewed by critics, but nothing here is a valid reason for a Wikipedia article to already exist today. I also strongly suspect a direct conflict of interest here, since the creator's been very nearly an SPA for Caillou Pettis over several years, beginning when Caillou Pettis was "known" only for a short Batman fanfilm.

The result was moved to draft space. This is a very close call. There are four editors for keeping (including the nominator) as opposed to three for deleting, which would normally constitute an absence of consensus. However, the weight of policy is on the part of the editors advocating deletion, as the sources here are too weak to reach Wikipedia's standards for corporate entities. Notably, several of the editors who would prefer to keep the article do so on the basis that the article can be improved. Moving it to draft space allows for the opportunity for the article to be improved to the level of Wikipedia standards. Therefore, the article will be moved to Draft:PayTabs, and will either be improved there, or deleted if abandoned. I am also locking the mainspace title to insure that administrative review precedes any restoration to mainspace. bd2412 T 20:31, 8 July 2018 (UTC) reply

I'm doing a bit of research into the company, and there seems to be quite a bit of independent coverage, including a video piece done by CNN on the company. [1]. Furthermore, if we are so technical about the sources meeting WP:NCORP, do please explain how pages such as Mumzworld, Fetchr, Talabat.com, Souq.com are able to publish pages with similar sources. If you are to get this technical, I assure you there is a lot of content on Wikipedia that will not make the mark. To conclude, I do assure you that all of the above mentioned companies, including the article in question do meet one strong criteria of WP:ORGIND, and that is that they all display clear signs of ongoing media coverage focusing on a product or organization.

  • Response A couple of things. "Independent coverage" is not the same thing as "Intellectually independent coverage" which is what is required. Interviews with company officers or connected partners (whether written or video) are not considered to be intellectually independent and fails WP:ORGIND. I've AfD'd those other two articles, they also fail, but the argument that "Other Stuff Exists" has no weight here. Finally, policies and guidelines exist for a reason - so that everyone can clearly see the criteria for establishing notability. Some parts may have a looser interpretation but notability is generally evenly interpreted. If a topic is genuinely notable, at least two references should be available.

The mention in Halmos' book is "... I read Pontryagin's Topological Groups. The English translation by Mrs. Lehmer (usually referred to as Emma Lemma)".

First, I think it's a mistake to believe that "Emma Lemma" refers to the translation rather than an obvious play-on-words of her name. Second, this is insufficient to make this a notable nickname. The other reference is to the book itself, which I strongly doubt mentions this name. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 00:43, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply



Hi, thanks for reviewing this contribution.

Please do a search in Google Books for Halmos and "Emma Lemma" ( https://www.google.com/search?num=100&newwindow=1&tbm=bks&ei=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22&oq=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emoritz2017 ( talkcontribs) 01:25, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply

you will notice that Google Books search returns the two following items. (quotes of search return including Emma Lemma term are bolded).

"I Want to be a Mathematician: An Automathography - Page 93

https://books.google.com/books?isbn=1461210844 P.R. Halmos - 2013 - ‎Preview - ‎More editions An Automathography P.R. Halmos. Hugh Dowker was von Neumann's ...

Paul Halmos ..."

The term "Emma Lemma" is an inside term used by mathematicians of that era; Paul Halmos is one of the most distinguished American Mathematicians; the fact that Halmos finds it sufficient to include the term in the memoir section during his time at the Institute of Advanced Studies while working as John Von Neumann's assistant should be sufficient to validate its significance and notability.

In addition, by including that discussion in his biography, Halmos points to the significance of the book Emma Lehmer translated and Emma Lehmer's significance as an American woman mathematician. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 01:21, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete or Redirect/merge to Emma Lehmer. I think it's obvious that there's not enough to say about the nickname itself for a standalone article. An alternative would be redirecting this to a (currently non-existent) article about Pontryagin's book, if it's sufficiently notable. (I think it's obvious that if the original book isn't notable enough for a standalone article then clearly the nickname of its translation isn't either). Pichpich ( talk) 00:06, 25 June 2018 (UTC) reply


Pichpich, thank you for the suggestion ... sounds like adding notes to the Emma Lehmer and to Lev Pontryagin articles and also creating an article for the book itself is the appropriate way forward. Google Scholar shows it has been cited by 1648 works. Part of the significance of the book is that it was purposely translated from the Russian text by the American Mathematical Society by Emma Lehmer. -- By the way, in researching this further, I found yet another reference to the use of Emma Lemma"", in [1] [this work is focused on the contribution of Russian Mathematicians, this article states "In 1939 he was elected Corre- sponding Member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, and full mem- bership came in 1958 [38, p. 21]. This last election was planned and carried through by I. M. Vinogradov. In 1940 he was one of the first recipients of the Stalin Prize (later called the State Prize) for his monograph Topological Groups [38, p. 13]. Pontryagin was honored with the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, the Order of the Badge of Honor, the Golden Star of a Hero of Socialist Labor, more than once with the Order of Lenin, and also with the LobachevskflPrize for his research. He was also Editor-in-Chief of Matem- aticheski~ Sbornik for some time."

So USSR apparently awarded him its highest honors (Academy Membership, Stalin Prize, ...) for this book, and the U.S. American Mathematical Society commissioned the translation of this book from Emma Lehmer due to its significance. The article I cited here also states "This theory, historically, was the first really exceptional achievement in algebraic topology", which quite a distinctive assessment. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 01:59, 25 June 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Comment I have no objection to an article on the book "Topological Groups", but dispute that "Emma Lemma" ever referred to that book. All of the "other" references appear to be direct quotes of Halmos. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 19:21, 25 June 2018 (UTC) reply

I am not clear what you mean by this last comment. I provided one direct quote in a book by Paul Halmos, a noted mathematician that worked at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, and was an established mathematician working premier math departments (U. of Chicago for example), as well as two references citing his work (one in another book, and one in a journal), those are all publically available, and they clearly refer to Emma Lemma as the Lehmer English translation of Pontryagin's book by Emma Lehmer ( UC Berkley, and later independent mathematician who has hundreds of publications to her name).

Currently, there are several English translations:

(1) Topological Groups: Translated from the Russian by Emma Lehmer https://books.google.com/books?id=gl4nAQAAIAAJ Lev Semenovich Pontri︠a︡gin - 1939 -

(2) Topological Groups: Translated from the Russian by Arlen Brown https://books.google.com/books?id=TmuqtAEACAAJ Lev S. Pontrjagin - 1966 - ‎

(3) Topological Groups (Classics of Soviet Mathematics) (Volume 2) 1st Edition by R. V. Gamkrelidze (Author) (appears in Amazon as ISBN-10: 2881241336, as part of a four volume series of Prontrjagin's work, and published by CRC Press; 1 edition (March 6, 1987).

Note that different translators translate the author's name with slight variations; the 1987 version preface states that the translations have translated certain terms differently given the over 40 years that elapsed between the first translation and the 1987 translation.

  • Delete or redirect/merge to Emma Lehmer. I find it very hard to believe that anyone with any proficiency in English would consider this nickname as applying to the book rather than to the translator. All the sources mentioned in the article and above are just copies of Halmos' quote. Paul Halmos was a careful expositor, had he been referring to the book he would have explained why the nickname was not grammatically correct (the appropriate nickname would have been "Emma's Lemmas" if the book was intended).
  • Delete or Redirect/merge to Emma Lehmer (see comment below). I guess that "Emma Lemma" is simply a transcription transliteration of the Russian name of Emma Lehmer. In fact, in Russian, names have a different form for men and women. The female version is often obtained by adding "a" to the male version, but this does not work with the final "er". So "Lema" or "Lemma" is the probable (I do not know enough Russian for being sure) female form of Lemer (the "h" disappears automatically with the transliteration in Russian). D.Lazard ( talk) 09:05, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Just to be explicit: I did not refer to your use of "transcribe", but to the article's itself. I do, however, consider Lehmera to be a perfect female Russian form for a male name Lehmer, I disagree with the hypothesis of Lem(m)a being an appropriate female form for male Lehmer, and I agree on the highly irregular lengthening of a vowel by a postponed "h" not appearing within the Russian language.

  • Delete (the Emma Lemma-article)explication on request. 08:23, 4 July 2018 (UTC) I strongly dispute even the factual correctness of this "article". "Emma Lemma" is defintly no "transcription", it is, at best, a funny(?) gaming with the pronunciation of "Emma Lehmer", possibly with slight German/Russian attitude, creating a phonetic nearness to a technical term in math, preceded by an alliterating female first name. Taking this as a transcription, hints to a severe spelling flaw. Considering wide spread objections to the inclusion of trivia in WP, there may be even doubt that this singularly(?) ascribed nick name/nom de plume/nom de guerre should be mentioned at all in the article about Emma Lehmer. Purgy ( talk) 07:31, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply
The current (obviously wrong) statement was made up by D.Lazard, because apparently who needs sourcing when you can just invent nonsense? On the other hand, the previous (also obviously wrong) statements were the result of a strange misreading of a source. It would be good to be clear whether you want to delete only the new wrong thing or actually the article in all forms. -- 2601:142:3:F83A:611C:BD4F:C063:4BF2 ( talk) 13:06, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Hi, as the originator of the article, I find this discussion fascinating. please send me an email where I can respond to you by providing a screenshot image of the paragraph by Halmos. My intent was to point out a fact that shed light on some social/sociological/linguistic practices in the stratosphere of the professional mathematics community. The fact is supported by several references. The interpretation of the fact appears contentious. This was not my intent; my intent was to provide broader awareness of that fact. In the grand scheme of things, I am fine with deletion of the Emma Lemma page I started. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 15:59, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Thank you for this kind offer. I never doubted that Halmos reported this nick name/nom de plume/nom de guerre as used by fellow mathematicians. However, Halmos' claim remains poorly sourced, if not unsourced. Purgy ( talk) 08:23, 4 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. It appears that my guess about the meaning of "Emma Lemma" is definitively wrong. However this is clearly a nickname of Emma Lehmer, not of the book. A nick name that has been used in a single mathematical department and that has been reported in a single source (the other sources are quotations of Halmos) has no encyclopedic value. This a case of WP:1R. I have thus changed my !vote to delete. I have also edited Emma Lehmer for clarifying the meaning of "Emma Lemma". D.Lazard ( talk) 09:58, 4 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Comment. There is no puzzle about the Maritz article. The call out is the direct quote of Halmos that has been cited over and over, and is attributed to him. It is included because Halmos is praising the book in a particularly exuberant Halmos way. I would also point out to my esteemed colleagues, who have greater international "chops" than I, that this is almost without a doubt a sophomoric graduate student attempt at humor at an English speaking university. Halmos is being light-hearted by passing this along (he may even have originated it in his younger days, but that is a guess).

Hello, so sorry, but I'm new at this. I do not own this but volunteer at this museum. What does "unsourced and online search yield nothing other than a couple passing mentions mean?" They recently changed their name to "Washington Township Museum of Local History". Does that help for online searches? — Preceding unsigned comment added by WashTownHistory ( talkcontribs) 00:15, 5 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Hi, User:WashTownHistory, it's my guess that the deletion nominator meant to assert the article is unsourced, and to assert they performed an online search about it and found little. Your providing an alternative name for it is helpful.
Can you possibly please provide any links to online sources about the museum, or citations to any offline coverage of it, e.g. any local or regional newspaper clippings? Is the museum housed in a historic building, by any chance? I checked for its address within listings of National Register of Historic Places in Alamada county but am not finding any match. -- Doncram ( talk) 01:04, 5 July 2018 (UTC) reply
@ WashTownHistory: I have added one reference from the newspaper, but also wasn't seeing many online. Read WP:GNG to understand what is needed to have an article. More details in WP:ORG, WP:RS, and WP:Museum. You might have something before it had its name. Maybe this stub could be merged into Fremont, California.

  • Hi, I figured out how to change the title to the full name. No, the museum is not in a particularly historic building. It's in an old fire station and is not a historic place. The museum is a repository for our local archives, has exhibits, hosts classes, visitors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WashTownHistory ( talkcontribs) 06:26, 5 July 2018 (UTC) reply

      The article notes:

      When you move, you make discoveries. You own more stuff than you thought. There aren't enough shelves, and people have given you a lot of old pictures. Members of Fremont's two historical organizations are making those discoveries. Still, they're delighted with their new home -- the Museum of Local History, housed in a former fire station on Anza Street in the Mission San Jose area.

      "Both groups have collected absolutely marvelous things," said Sherry Nighswonger, chairwoman of the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. "We're hoping everyone will just be astounded by our treasures."

      Since last month, Mission Peak and the Washington Township Historical Society have moved more than 100 years' worth of history -- yellowing maps, land grants, steamer trunks, clothes, a sulky for trotting races, a piano that came around the Horn, cobbler's tools, farm implements -- into the building. These artifacts had been hidden in the city's corporation yard, upstairs at the Olive Hyde Art Gallery, the Mission San Jose museum and various other sites throughout the Tri-Cities.

      ...

      The city modified the 2,400-square-foot space -- making the building accessible to all citizens, modifying restrooms and adding climate control for the room with documents and photographs -- at a cost of about $100,000. Under a 20-year lease, the historical societies will rent the building for $1 a year, staff it, maintain the landscaping and pay utilities, expected to be around $150 a month.

      The article notes:

      IT'S BEEN YEARS in the making and involved a cast of thousands: Ohlones, Spanish, Mexicans, Chinese, Japanese, Americans. Even movie stars Charlie Chaplin and Bronco Billy.

      The museum, Mission San w Jose's third, is in a converted fire station on Anza Street and will focus on 19th century Washington Township, which became today's cities of Fremont, Union City and Newark.

      Another museum, at the old mission, covers Ohlone and mission periods while a third, at Ohlone College, deals with the Irvingtonian fossils of the Pleistocene epoch, 1.36 million years ago.

      The museum is a joint effort of the city, the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation.

      AMONG THE artifacts in the 2,400-square-foot museum are a carriage used at the Patterson Ranch, the cradle of C.J. Stevens (the first white child born in Washington Township) and the only remaining spotlight from Charlie Chaplin's Essanay Studios in Niles. There is a huge wok used by the Chinese cooks at the Shinn Ranch, a giant bellows from the blacksmith in Niles and lots of books, maps and newspaper clippings.

      Regina Dennie, docent coordinator of the Museum of Local History, had missed only one monthly museum board meeting in eight years -- until last October.

      That's when the 72-year Mission San Jose resident said directors refused to disclose how museum money was being spent. She hasn't been to a meeting since then.

      Dennie, a member of the original board in 1995 whose term expired several years ago, still opens the Anza Street museum twice a week, leads occasional tours and coordinates about a dozen volunteer docents.

      ...

      The museum, in the former Mission Fire Station, opened in 1992 under the supervision of the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. In October 1995, the two groups formed the nonprofit Museum of Local History, and continued to rent the building from the city for $1 a year.

      The group has an average annual budget of approximately $5,000 for expenses such as utilities and insurance.

      The article notes:

      In 1950, Southern California native Robert Fisher set up a doctor's practice in southern Alameda County's Irvington district, settling in what was then a rural-but-growing Washington Township after Army service. Soon the doctor discovered many of his patients were from the founding families of the region that would become Fremont.

      ...

      Recollections of the elderly patients prompted Fisher's decadeslong efforts to gather archives, photographs, oral histories and other records on the area -- now Fremont, Newark and Union City -- dating from Spanish colonial times.

      Fisher, who later helped incorporate the city of Fremont in 1956, became its foremost historian and a staunch defender of historic sites.

      ...

      Monday morning, movers donating their time hauled the multitude of items from Fisher's retirement home in Mendocino into a small room of the Museum of Local History.

      Their goal is to beautify a small section of Fremont, introduce local residents to native plants that need little water and maintenance, and educate students about the days when Ohlone Indians had thriving communities here.

  • Keep This is a sensible spinoff from the main article about Parkrun and so the worst case would be to merge back there, per WP:PRESERVE. There's no reason to do this though as the page passes WP:LISTN. For example, see London Parkrun reviews. Andrew D. ( talk) 17:44, 16 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep, because Parkruns are quite different from normal 5Ks in that their spread has been a subject of substantial independent media coverage, including in the Wall Street Journal [4], The Guardian [5], and many others (111,000 Google News results with quotes around the term). Much of this coverage is focused on or assumes knowledge of the locations / number of Parkrun races, so a complete list is very helpful in a reference work to comprehend the coverage, which is one reason for Wikipedia lists in the first place. Whether or not a list is available on other websites or the PR site should have no bearing on this Wikipedia article, so I don't think that should be used as a deletion reason (but for the record I was not able to find a list with as much info online).
I agree that the article was not perfect, so I took action and made some changes to eliminate all the promotional language / peacock terms and fix the sources. Most of the races listed also have third-party coverage -- maybe not enough to warrant their own articles, but certainly the article could be improved further by adding those third-party references to each list item if anyone wants to try that. I also think it's worth noting that this notability issue was discussed three months ago with some very important points to consider on the talk page here. The Wikipedians in that discussion ultimately kept the article, and I think it should remain on the wiki for others to improve it.

  • Hi Ajf773, thanks for your points. I don't think the fact that lists are available elsewhere online is a valid deletion reason -- just because you can probably find the List of The Big Bang Theory episodes on a company website doesn't mean it shouldn't be on Wikipedia. Likewise every entry on a Wikipedia list doesn't need to be article-worthy (though I think some specific Parkruns certainly are), for example see how most of the entries in the prior list don't have their own articles. While Wikipedia isn't a directory, it is a reference work, and I think a list of Parkruns in the UK, where the vast majority of Parkrun coverage is centered around, is a valuable addition to an encyclopedia to understand that news coverage, as nearly all of the hundreds of Parkrun articles in the British media are centered around knowledge of a particular Parkrun event. -- Habst ( talk) 03:38, 19 June 2018 (UTC) reply

I understand that, but I don't consider it a directory as much as I consider it a table in a reference work that aids my understanding of Parkrun-related news coverage. For example reading the article "10 fastest times at UK parkruns" released just yesterday, this list can be very helpful to understand which courses are fast and where they all are. -- Habst ( talk) 09:54, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
Hi Rwxrwxrwx, I think there are actually quite a few of these list items that have articles, for example Bushy Parkrun, Nonsuch Parkrun, Weald Country Park#Brentwood Parkrun, Kingsbury Water Park#Events, Shorne Wood Country Park#parkrun, Victoria Park, Belfast#Belfast Victoria Parkrun, Hesketh Park, Southport#Parkrun, Victoria Park, Widnes#Parkrun, Victoria Park, St Helens#Parkrun, Kings Park, Boscombe#Attractions, and Wepre Park#Parkrun among many others. Rather than being deleted the list should be improved by linking to them. I think the list pretty clearly satisifies WP:SAL, which does not state that organizations in a list each need to be worthy of their own articles (though some certainly are in this case). I don't think shortening the list is the right move but it's certainly better than deletion; the list would not be pointless in that case anyways as there are hundreds of lists which use the {{ Dynamic list}} template in this way. -- Habst ( talk) 13:50, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
Sections of articles (using the # symbol) are NOT articles. Ajf773 ( talk) 21:35, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
I agree, Ajf773. That's why I think that the list meets WP:SAL#Lists of companies and organizations, because individual articles per parkrun are not needed (but in some cases they do exist anyways). -- Habst ( talk) 09:54, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
A significant number need to be notable. Majority of those links are passing mentions. There are two articles, one of which barely survived an AfD. Ajf773 ( talk) 10:51, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
I think all of the listed parkruns are notable in the colloquial sense of the term. In terms of WP:N, I don't think WP:SAL says that a significant number of the entries need to be notable (they would if this was a list of living people, but as this is a list of events it does not apply). There are over three million registered Parkrun users, and I think the organization is in general underrepresented on Wikipedia. -- Habst ( talk) 12:51, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
I do not think lists in Wikipedia are supposed to be either exhaustive or deleted, Rwxrwxrwx. I'm sure we accept lists of whatever is known and can be gathered, as long as the list is adequate and serves an encyclopaedic purpose. There's always the implied authorization to expand and improve.

  • Delete My talk page was one of the ones where the subject requested deletion. I was avoiding commenting (a bit creeped out by having this end up on my page) but since this has been relisted I'll bite the bullet. The fact that almost the entire article is an unsourced piece written by the subject is unfortunate, but not in itself reason to delete. Assuming that the career information is correct (I have no reason not to believe it) and that reliable sources can be found to support those claims (likely) this comes down to a notability decision based on the claims in the article. I agree with the statements by other editors that this does not pass WP:ENT or WP:PERP or WP:CREATIVE or WP:ANYBIO,. and I'm not seeing WP:BASIC .Could this article be saved? Possibly, but I doubt it. Should it be saved? I don't think so. I'm certainly not going to attempt to do so, and after two weeks it does look like anyone else wants to attempt to save this article either.

Josh Yguado is just mention in passing (interview piece as well). Let sit on this for some days for other editors comments and vote on this and see how it would be fared.

  • Can you tell me what type of article would qualify?

Graham is an employee of USA Today, not Jam City. What exactly is the problem there?

  • Redirect name to Boris Becker article; otherwise, trivial and not notable for stand alone article. Kierzek ( talk) 19:46, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comment on the proposal to redirect: I thought of that, but quickly wondered why it should redirect to Boris Becker and not to Arne Quinze. And, after a couple more seconds, why an article on anybody should redirect to the article on anybody she'd divorced: such a redirect would seem to say that she's no more than an appendage to the person she previously divorced, which strikes me as gratuitously insulting. -- Hoary ( talk) 22:16, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - "appendage", I would not say that; you are reading too much into it; the fact is Becker is the last name she kept and apparently uses, and certainly he is much better known, but frankly in the end it does not matter which one. She is too trivial for stand alone article. Kierzek ( talk) 00:05, 27 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep, reasonably notable German TV actress. No idea why her acting career isn't featured in the article. — Kusma ( t· c) 08:36, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Kusma, would you care to add a couple of reliable, non-trivial (etc etc) sources for this reasonable notability? I don't even know which name I should use when searching. And if the article survives, how do you think it should be titled? As I've indicated, it would normally strike me as insulting to retain a name used before a divorce, another wedding and another divorce; but I'm willing to believe that extraordinary circumstances may justify this. -- Hoary ( talk) 22:14, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply
    • Much of the original acting career is as "Barbara Feltus", like her IMDB profile. Looking at that, she seems less notable as an actress in her own right than Meghan Markle was, but her marriage to Boris Becker was a huge event in 1990s Germany, as was the subsequent divorce. To this day, she is one of the most prominent people of colour in Germany, always as "Barbara Becker". For example, here is a recent debate about racism that she was involved in. Have you done a Google News search? Of course a lot of the results are tabloid journalism, but why does that mean we shouldn't have an article about her? — Kusma ( t· c) 10:10, 27 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • I can partly agree with you, Kusma: It doesn't matter how great a percentage of the material about her is tabloidy; if there's a significant amount that isn't tabloidy, then she could be encyclopedia-worthy. The article you've linked to isn't tabloidy. But what does it say about her? That she's (justifiably, imho) appalled by racism, and that she's a DJ and painter. But there's nothing about her activities as a DJ or painter, about her other/earlier activities, or her other notability. If other articles showed her notability as an actor, DJ, painter or whatever, then yes she should get an article, and something about her family and its subjection to racism should be part of this article, and this would be a good source for the latter. But I've yet to see evidence of notability. -- Hoary ( talk) 02:31, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • If you're saying, Kierzek, that somebody's notability for speakers/readers of language X is a lot greater than her notability for speakers/readers of English, and that this may justify an article about her in X-language Wikipedia without justifying one in English-language Wikipedia, then I disagree. If German-language sources alone demonstrated that she was notable, she'd be notable, even if she were totally unknown to those who don't speak/read German. -- Hoary ( talk) 02:31, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • If you spent time on German and Japanese Wikipedia as I do, you would see my point, but there is no reason to go down that rabbit hole. The fact is, Ms. Becker is not notable enough for a separate article and does not meet GNG. Kierzek ( talk) 13:06, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • I'm happy not to spend much time in Japanese-language Wikipedia, which appears to be edited vigorously by many people whose favorite activity is adding unsourced lists. Occasionally I'm surprised to discover a sourced and good article there. However, as you say, we digress. -- Hoary ( talk) 13:23, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • The English one is becoming rather odd. I clicked on a link to "A week in the life of the superwoman" and was instead sent to "Barbara Becker: Eine Woche im Leben der Powerfrau". The damn website refused to serve up the page unless I disabled my ad-blocker, which I wouldn't do; skimreading through the source, I find that for example she's a healthy woman who enjoys gardening. Where's the notability? -- Hoary ( talk) 13:23, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply

Let's look at these mainstream citations. Here they are, one by one, with my brief descriptions of what they say about Barbara Becker (BB):
  • BBC: the Beckers' marriage, "the bombshell that the two had broken up", and the financial aspects of their divorce. Nothing else about BB.
  • LA Times: "Becker's Divorce Battle With American Wife Rivets Germans"; also, on media frenzy around this "battle". BB was a "former actress and model" with black hair and black eyes.
  • CNN: On the divorce settlement. BB, "a former model and actress, is the daughter of a former U.S. Army medical corps officer", was 33 years old.
  • Observer: On the impending court case. We learn that BB was half of "Germany's most high-profile interracial marriage", and that she "had become accepted beyond the confines of the progressive Left", that "She was an actress and model - the daughter of a German mother and an American father who came to Europe as a lieutenant in the medical corps and stayed on to become a successful photographer and designer."
  • Telegraph: She's the mother of Noah Becker, and she "has a German mother and an African-American father".
No argument from me that these are from reliable sources (though the BBC and the Observer articles both seem uncharacteristically tabloidy). But what do they say? I see no evidence in any of these five that BB was/is notable for anything other than marrying Boris Becker (and thereby upsetting racist birdbrains), having two sons, and going through a noisy divorce. There's nothing whatever about her Boris-independent achievements as a model, an actress, or anything else. I don't deny that she has had them (I really don't know); but if she has had them, then they're not apparent from this material. -- Hoary ( talk) 22:44, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Hoary I get that you're trying to find things in the articles that you think justify her notability, but has it occurred to you that the fact that reliable news organizations (and tabloids) keep writing articles about her is *because* she is notable? Not all notable people deserve their notability ( Kardashians ???) but it doesn't mean that they're not notable. Robman94 ( talk) 16:23, 5 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Robman94, I suppose that news and gossip sources write about her either because she's notable for something or because she has notability inherited from one or other of her ex-husbands or ... I dunno. I'm very willing to believe that it's the first of these, as indeed Kusma has suggested above. Indeed, I hope that it is. I did take a quick look for evidence of this; I found nothing. I'm willing to believe that my search was incompetent/inadequate; but the last time I looked, nobody had added or even referred to an appreciable amount of superior sourcery. (If they did, I'd withdraw this nomination.) Family Kardashian (and Ms P Hilton) do seem to be mere celebs, "famous for being famous", but for those Americans (perhaps in part because they are Americans) there are TV shows and much more involved; and the volume of coverage, undeserved/vapid though it may be, is vastly greater. Incidentally, I hope that I don't need to say this, but I bear the subject of this article no ill-will (I have no opinion about any divorce procedure/settlement, or about either ex-husband), and am appalled to read of the racist treatment of her and at least one of her sons. -- Hoary ( talk) 11:02, 6 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - non-notable, run of the mill businessman who fails to meet WP:BIO and WP:SIGCOV. Note that Wikipedia subjects should not inherit notability from a notable subject; this is pertinent as the coverage about Beynon concerns the company he co-founded (Mighty Group Inc) and not himself. It must also be noted that Mighty is widely characterized as a startup, and thus WP:TOOSOON applies to any source covering the company. Other sources are merely make passing mention of Beynon, and thus are not in-depth. Finally, the article as it stands does not assert any claims to significance, and Wikipedia does not hold businessmen to be innately notable.-- SamHolt6 ( talk) 04:36, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Fails NPOL and GNG. Yes, there are some mentions of her, mostly relating to one specific event (BLP1E, anyone?) but aside from the inaccurate claim of adequate sourcing at the time of the last AfD (the sources did not support the point of notability that was being suggested), there is nothing to indicate even now that this person meets the criteria and there has obviously been an issue with conflict of interest. There is a long discussion at the article talk page where numerous people with experience of the political system in India have pointed out that Lourdes is mistaken in their understanding of matters pertaining to the situation.

Non-notable footy club. No sources to demonstrate notability except the Untouchables article from 2007. No additional coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject have surfaced since the AfD in 2008. [35] They might be playing in a very slightly higher league now than they were in 2008, but there are no guidelines for subject specific notability for sports teams; they are still required to meet the General Notability Guideline. I originally CSDed this article as a previously deleted article, under G4, but others thought that the league change was enough that G4 was not appropriate. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 01:12, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Speedy keep Club now plays at step 6, and consensus from dozens of previous AfDs (a few examples here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) is that this is sufficient to make the club notable. I was the nominator in the original AfD when they did not meet this criteria. Number 5 7 08:14, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, you can't speedy keep on that. Guidelines clearly state that teams must meet the GNG. While Step 6 or above might be an indication that clubs may meet the GNG, that does not appear to be the case with this club. There is no guideline that states that playing at step 6 or above confers some sort of automatic notability. Of your six examples: the ones that were kept met the GNG, the ones that were deleted did not, and generally !voters were clear in all the discussions that sources were either available or lacking, while some !votes mentioned 'generally accepted criteria', these are not part of any policy or guideline that I could find. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 08:27, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
OTHERSTUFFEXISTS can be a valid or invalid argument in a deletion debate. It's a valid rationale when you're arguing (for instance) that all other clubs at this level have articles (which they do, aside from a few others who have just been promoted and no-one has created them yet).
While you're correct that this is not explicitly written in a guideline, it's more because it's overly specific (each country would have a different cutoff point). It was previously listed in WP:NCORP, but was removed as being unnecessarily specific. Since then I don't think anyone has ever felt the need to readd it, given the fact that very few editors have ever had a problem with the situation. However, I think the mentions of it in the numerous AfDs clearly demonstrate that the rule remains in place. I don't believe an article on a club playing at step 6 has ever been deleted. Number 5 7 08:45, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
I suspect very few editors have had a problem because the 'cuttoff point' that you speak of generally coincides with meeting or not meeting the GNG with sources. In this case it does not though, and the GNG trumps any kind of common practice in walled gardens. Per Govvy, they haven't actually played in that division yet anyway, perhaps when they have there will be additional coverage and they will meet the GNG. In the meantime, there isn't sufficient sourcing to demonstrate notability. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 09:21, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comments I ran a bit quick yesterday, as I really don't like speedy deletions, @ Insertcleverphrasehere: I believe articles with any citations available and that have had a long period before being recreated should be given a fair trial and shouldn't ever be speedy deleted. Anyway, from looking at previous AfD and thefa.com website they registered two years ago to play in the FA Vase for the first time in the clubs existence, but they failed FA ground rules policy by having no lights. I am surprised there is no local news source for this on the article. If that issue with their ground has been fixed and the fact they gained promotion they will most likely have to register this coming season, this gives them a chance to enter FA Vase or FA Cup again. If we are going by the criteria that they need to play in an FA sanctioned cup competition to pass then they currently still fail Wikipedia guidelines to have an article. That could change by August know, but that's playing WP:CRYSTAL. Govvy ( talk) 09:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
    • @ Govvy: The criteria is playing at step 6, or in the FA Cup/Trophy/Vase. There are some clubs that have only achieved the former (usually clubs at step 6 without lights) and some the latter (the few that enter the Vase from step 7). If for whatever reason Ensign resign from the league before the season starts, I'll happily delete the article. However, for now they're part of a step 6 league. Number 5 7 09:20, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep If this one goes, that's dozens of other step 6 club articles that would have to follow. As Number 57 has said, I've never seen a step 6 club article deleted before. Why this particular one, out of interest? It seems like the main criteria being used here is that someone erroneously thought White Ensign were notable back in 2008 so the article was rightly deleted back then. There are several step 6 clubs who meet GNG who hadn't even been founded then. OGLV ( talk) 09:17, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
@ OGLV: That depends, most step 6 clubs also meet the GNG, so there would be no reason to delete. Why this particular one? Because it doesn't currently have sufficient sourcing to meet the general notability guideline. The guidelines are clear that there are no subject specific notability criteria or 'automatic' notability for teams, they must meet the GNG with sourcing. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 09:28, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

WikiProjects should not just make up notability guidelines that directly contradict established guidelines. WP:NSPORT clearly states that teams must meet the GNG, and WP:NCORP specifically excludes teams. This is a disturbing result and indicates that a walled garden is developing amongst football editors. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 19:25, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
As noted above, it was once included in a project-wide notability guideline (WP:NCORP), but was removed for being too specific. Number 5 7 19:37, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply

There isn't a need for this barely-edited standalone article, the information is already contained already be found in the relevant Korean War articles (See this, this and this) and the material that's currently there is unimportant, unsourced and controversial. I suggest turning this article into a disambiguation page which refers to the Chongchon and Chosin Reservoir battles. Wingwraith ( talk) 00:22, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

This article was created as a stub and with a slightly different title in 2009. Today I proposed to expand the article and duly tagged it as under-construction, but so far have only revised the summary paragraph.
The sudden desire of User:Wingwraith to delete the article is curious, especially as he has just been deleting referenced material I inserted in the article titled Battle of Chosin Reservoir. During our discussion of those edits, User:Wingwraith has referred to my edits as "fascist," and "hysterical."
I refer to the above only to suggest to other editors that User:Wingwraith's motives in proposing that this article be deleted may not be driven by his desire to improve Wikipedia.
User:Wingwraith cites cite three articles that he says already contain the information that would be included in Second Phase Campaign (Korean War). The first article he cited, the Korean War article, is general and has little detail about specific campaigns and battles. The part of the Korean War article related to the Second Phase Offensive is only fifteen lines long. The articles Battle of Chosin Reservoir and Battle of Ch'ongch'on River are about specific battles carried out during the Second Phase Offensive. There is some information about Chinese strategy, objectives, military capabilities, etc. included in these articles, but about 90 percent of each of these articles is focused on the U.S. forces and actions. Thus, it seems a clear and present need for a wikipedia article which contains more complete and relevant information about a Chinese military campaign which defeated the UN/US forces in North Korea and forced them to retreat and withdraw from South Korea. Lacking at present in Wikipedia is detail about Chinese decision making in launching the Second Phase Offensive, strategy, tactics, and weapons of the Chinese army, and the consequences of those battles on Chinese forces and strategy for pursuing the war. That is the subject matter of the article User:Wingwraith proposes for deletion.
There is a growing body of scholarly work in English about the Chinese participation in the Korean War. That material would be tapped for this article. My editing and expansion of this article would be for the purpose of broadening a reader's knowledge of the Korean War beyond the U.S-centric focus of current wikipedia articles about the Second Phase Campaign. It was no small campaign, by the way, involving about 350,000 soldiers on both the Chinese and the UN/US sides. Smallchief ( talk)
1) There's nothing curious about my proposal to delete this article. It's something that anybody can do and I came upon this article organically ever since my engagement with you on the the Chosin Reservoir talk page. In any case it's no less curious then your sudden interest in this article after it was left untouched for over a year. Do not try to make it out like I am hounding you.
2) My description of your edits on that page was based on the facts of what you wrote whereas your assertion that my proposal is not driven by my desire to improve Wikipedia is a violation of WP:AGF which will be further noted should that need arise.
3) We can integrate all the material that you've referred to into the other articles. What is this article going to tell us that we can't already find in the other three? Both of articles whose topics are about the two battles that the campaign mainly comprised of (Ch'ongch'on River and Chosin Reservoir) are listed as good warfare articles so that's even more of a reason to integrate your sources there first. Also, it doesn't make sense to discuss strategy, tactics, weapons, etc on an article like this which should be about generalities and not specificities, if you do that you will start to make whole sections in the two other articles redundant. You'll also note that there's no standalone article for the First, Third and Fourth Phase Campaign so you will need to explain why this campaign in particular deserves a standalone article.
4) "My editing and expansion of this article would be for the purpose of broadening a reader's knowledge of the Korean War" Do not make yourself out to be an impartial editor on this matter when your contributions on the Chosin Reservoir articles prove that you are editing from a pro-PVA perspective.

I'll note that this is a notable topic, and could be developed standalone - but at the present state there is nothing to salvage here that isn't the main article.

The article is under construction and is so tagged. It has existed as a stub since 2009, and only yesterday did I begin to add material to elevate it from stub category. Please note the underconstruction tag at the head of the article. As the article has existed as a stub without challenge to its notability since 2009, some time should be allowed for it to be developed beyond a stub.
I am perfectly happy with the name Second phase offensive as an alternative to Second Phase Campaign.
One problem is that there is no "main article." There are two articles about separate battles in the Second Phase Campaign or Offensive: Battle of Chosin Reservoir and Battle of Ch'ongch'on. These two battles were one operation in the Chinese mind. An overview article is desirable which goes into more detail about the Chinese preparation and carrying out of the offensive -- and the decision making process of US commanders and intelligence officers that led the UN forces to advance into the teeth of a major Chinese attack. The failures of imagination and Intelligence on the part of the U.S. in Korea are similar in many ways to the failures in the Tet Offensive during the Vietnam War. The Second Phase Offensive in Korea and Tet in Vietnam had similar outcomes -- they caused a loss of confidence by the American people and leaders that the Korean and Vietnam wars could be won.
There is precedent for an article about the Second phase offensive. The follow-on Fifth phase offensive has a Wikipedia article in good standing titled Chinese Spring Offensive. Perhaps the First, Third, and Fourth phase offensives also deserve articles. In any case, the Second phase offensive was, I believe, the most politically and militarily decisive of the five Chinese offensives. In other words, it is highly notable.

This article is in sorry shape, and will require a rewrite. Basically everything failed verification, but that's not an AfD-worthy offense. I nominate this for deletion because I don't believe either company here (because I have found nothing indicating that these two are in any way related) is notable enough for me to actually do said rewrite. For Board Administration, there is this, already in the article, that mentions the company exists and has a couple of client; this, also in the article, that mentions Wale founded this company along with a few other people; and this, discussing how the company and one of its clients fell out with each other. Three articles from two sources, all three of which are trivial coverage: the only one that is plausibly significant is the last one, but that focuses on Fat Trel, with only as much coverage of the Board Administration as pertains to that artist. As for Every Blue Moon, there's the three sources in the article (all from the same day), all three of which cover it very trivially (unless you want to argue that a page consisting only of two sentences and a quote constitutes significant coverage, which I do not), plus some other trivial coverage such as a SoundCloud station, and this thing that has nothing to do with the record label. Even if we considered them together (which we should not, because they aren't related), they fail GNG and WP:NCORP. Compassionate727 ( T· C) 23:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Even at the presidential level, non-winning candidates are still not granted an automatic inclusion freebie just for existing as candidates. Major party candidates typically receive enough coverage to clear WP:GNG regardless of whether they won or lost, and normally already have other preexisting notability claims for other reasons prior to running for president anyway — but minor or fringe candidates don't necessarily have either of those things, and "was a minor presidential candidate" is not a strong enough notability claim to exempt a minor or fringe candidate from having to have either of those things. But the references here are almost all primary sources that do not help to establish notability at all, and the only one that's actually media coverage is a blurb in her own hometown newspaper. That's not enough coverage to make a fringe candidate notable regardless of what office she was running for. Bearcat ( talk) 18:21, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Paulina Rubio discography and speedy close this discussion. Deletion is not an option since we definitely want to keep a redirect at worst. And if the single eventually becomes notable (not that I really expect that), it will be easy to get the material back from the redirect's history. As for the fact that the redirecting has been undone twice, well I suggest we just insist. Pichpich ( talk) 23:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Wikipedia is not supposed to be a newspaper, and all the political issues mentioned in this article are covered perfectly better in other articles. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:26, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Comment I'm not so sure - it can have non-news aspects, and there is sufficient coverage (and vastly more) to let it do so. It does however need a new name - this one wouldn't help anyone either know what it means or find the article. Nosebagbear ( talk) 17:31, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
If someone can pin the topic as something other than everything the German government is having a problem with in 2018 that would be great. Right now I just see some unnecessary detail related to the European migrant crisis. That is not a good topic, that is news. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:34, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Looking at Talk:European_migrant_crisis#Merger_proposal and European migrant crisis (Finland), there could be room for a topic called European migrant crisis (Germany). Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:37, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Speedy keep Defective and unjustified nomination, absolutely no guideline is saying this. This article is extremely well sourced by many, many international WP:RS. This nomination sounds more like a dispute over disliked page content. And obviously no alternatives were considered by the nominator. And regarding the name, there may be redirects established, but it is definitely a government crisis and called this way by lots of sources.-- Greywin ( talk) 17:38, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
To clarify, I do like the page content, it is the topic is wrong and that cannot be fixed without making the topic different or deleting the topic and adding the content to a different topic, which is what I am proposing initially. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:42, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Greywin I disagree with their judgement, but to preempt their response, the policy that may apply would be WP:NOT, specifically WP:NOTNEWS. Strict sourcing wasn't stated by nom. Sourcing quality, especially analysis beyond reporting, allows the article to include non-news aspects. Nosebagbear ( talk) 17:44, 1 July 2018 (UTC) [n.b. edit clash, this comment does not respond to Frayae's comment - and apologies for pinging the wrong person!] reply
Well on that basis the best thing to do would be to stop this discussion to delete the topic and start the discussion to rename the topic, but I don't know how to do that. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:48, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
And in case it is not clear this is nothing to do with sourcing or notability, I don't doubt that the German government is reliably reported as having crisis, I can't see the encyclopedic value of putting all issues for a year in an article, that is running commentary based on date, because all crisis right now were also crisis in 2017, and 2016 and before... Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:52, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Unfortunately the nom does not mention why the topic should be "wrong" - and why this should be a reason to delete the article. This nomination is completely incomprehensible, as the article is much better sourced than a high percentage of comparable articles, so WP:NOTNEWS does in no way apply. But right now the nominator obviously admits that the nomination is the wrong instrument, so it is to be withdrawn and a renaming discussion can be started on the talk page.-- Greywin ( talk) 17:55, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Yes this nomination is withdrawn with rename discussion requested, but twinkle tool has no button to do withdraw, someone who knows how should be found to help. Frayæ ( Talk/ Spjall) 17:57, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • These are entirely surmountable problems, and while it may be a long time before anyone improves the article, it can still provide some readers with just what they're looking for. Deletion is not cleanup. Deleting the article will prevent an article ever being created on the subject. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:20, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply
    I'm sorry but I disagree completely. No original research is a fundamental policy for a reason, somebodies own opinions and views, entirely unsourced, are not remotely beneficial to the project and the way to surmount the problem of original research is to remove it - remove the OR from this article and you have virtually no article. People are more likely to write a decent article if they see a subject missing than they are to try rewrite a bad article. Also Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup is just an essay, as is Wikipedia:Blow it up and start over, neither is a catch-all.-- Jac16888 Talk 21:52, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply

These articles are unlikely to ever grow out of stub status, thus failing WP:NMUSIC which states "a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article. Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article or discography article."

  • Delete, with sadness. People have cared enough about her work to create and edit an article about her. However, persistent insertion of a statement that she has died, with only Reddit and a former colleague's Facebook post offered as sources, led me to note as the nominator has that I at least can find pretty much nothing about her in reliable sources. The article history also shows that she's been confused with an astrologer and novelist named Jodie Forrest (wiki source, but corrected by the subject), and I agree with this edit summary that that's probably the source of the birth date, for which no source seems to have been offered. (It was inserted here.) So we don't even have a sourced birthdate for this BLP, and the one we've had most of the time since 2011 is probably wrong. Yngvadottir ( talk) 16:36, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Season article for a club playing at the sixth tier (and the second level of semi-professional football). This clearly fails WP:NSEASONS and there is significant precedence that season articles are not notable even for clubs in the division above. The original prod was removed by the article creator with the rationale that this was "disrespectful towards the league and the clubs within the league" and that there "is a strong interest in this page from Darlington fans". Neither of these are valid reasons for keeping the article. Number 5 7 10:44, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Very very much WP:TOOSOON. The structure is so new that there is exactly one publication even mentioning it (Patriarchi et al. 2018)(the other references in the article are on ancillary topics). Uptake, coverage and general notability are nowhere near requirements at this point. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 09:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC) Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 09:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Thank you for your comment Elmidae. However, I think it differently. The fact that the article describing the introduction of dLight was published last month, makes it very recent, but certainly not insignificant to the point that it does not deserve being mentioned on Wikipedia. Uptake, coverage and general notability of the topic are outstanding with respect to its recent introduction: for verification of this you can look at the Altmetric scores of the article (Patriarchi et al. 2018), which is currently 264. In scholarly and scientific publishing, altmetrics are non-traditional bibliometrics proposed as an alternative or complement to more traditional citation impact metrics, such as impact factor and h-index. A score of 264, sets the article describing dLight in the top 5% of all research outputs scored by Altmetric. I would say that speaks out for its uptake, coverage and general notability. -- Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST) Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST)

I'm sorry, but looking at the metrics, I don't see the kind of coverage that is required for a Wikipedia article subject. Picked up by two news outlets, blogged twice, tweeted a couple hundred times - that's not widespread, in-depth coverage. The study hasn't even been cited in another article yet. What we do here is tertiary coverage: we summarize what others (secondary sources) have said about a subject. The subject being this research finding, we require that secondary sources (news articles, other papers) must have done their thing first. That hasn't happened here yet. WP is not the platform to give exposure to these findings, it is the platform to report on findings that have received exposure. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 17:27, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

I understand your general point. However i personally consider the two news outlets that publicly introduce and discuss the article as verifiable secondary sources. If you have proof to discredit my claim, please provide it. What it all comes down to is: are there exact requirements for the notability of a subject before it can be picked up on a Wikipedia page? If there is not a specifc rule or a threshold number of secondary sources, then i still believe my article meets the criteria for being published in Wikipedia. -- Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 10:48, 1 July 2018 (PST)

There is no codified set of requirements for findings of scientific research in particular; the general notability guidelines apply. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 18:03, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per nom. In fact it also fails by just general notability rules, as there don't seem to be any suitable sources at all for this iteration (vs the 1963 film), let alone ones that indicate principal photography has commenced Nosebagbear ( talk) 10:48, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Upcoming films are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because IMDb and a Twitter tweet from the director technically verify that the film is in the production pipeline — as far as IMDb is concerned, for example, as of right now the film is still only in pre-production. And the inclusion test isn't even just "filming has started", either — for the vast majority of films, notability hinges on commercial and/or festival release, and only a very select few especially high profile projects that get constant coverage throughout the process, such as the Star Wars franchise, get to claim notability just because filming is in progress. So no prejudice against recreation if and when the film is actually in release and getting reviewed by critics, but nothing here is a valid reason for a Wikipedia article to already exist today. I also strongly suspect a direct conflict of interest here, since the creator's been very nearly an SPA for Caillou Pettis over several years, beginning when Caillou Pettis was "known" only for a short Batman fanfilm.

The result was moved to draft space. This is a very close call. There are four editors for keeping (including the nominator) as opposed to three for deleting, which would normally constitute an absence of consensus. However, the weight of policy is on the part of the editors advocating deletion, as the sources here are too weak to reach Wikipedia's standards for corporate entities. Notably, several of the editors who would prefer to keep the article do so on the basis that the article can be improved. Moving it to draft space allows for the opportunity for the article to be improved to the level of Wikipedia standards. Therefore, the article will be moved to Draft:PayTabs, and will either be improved there, or deleted if abandoned.

Furthermore, if we are so technical about the sources meeting WP:NCORP, do please explain how pages such as Mumzworld, Fetchr, Talabat.com, Souq.com are able to publish pages with similar sources. If you are to get this technical, I assure you there is a lot of content on Wikipedia that will not make the mark. To conclude, I do assure you that all of the above mentioned companies, including the article in question do meet one strong criteria of WP:ORGIND, and that is that they all display clear signs of ongoing media coverage focusing on a product or organization.

  • Response A couple of things. "Independent coverage" is not the same thing as "Intellectually independent coverage" which is what is required. Interviews with company officers or connected partners (whether written or video) are not considered to be intellectually independent and fails WP:ORGIND. I've AfD'd those other two articles, they also fail, but the argument that "Other Stuff Exists" has no weight here. Finally, policies and guidelines exist for a reason - so that everyone can clearly see the criteria for establishing notability. Some parts may have a looser interpretation but notability is generally evenly interpreted. If a topic is genuinely notable, at least two references should be available.

    • Response It has always been this case, just that editors continually confused the interpretation of "independent coverage".

The mention in Halmos' book is "... I read Pontryagin's Topological Groups. The English translation by Mrs. Lehmer (usually referred to as Emma Lemma)".

First, I think it's a mistake to believe that "Emma Lemma" refers to the translation rather than an obvious play-on-words of her name. Second, this is insufficient to make this a notable nickname. The other reference is to the book itself, which I strongly doubt mentions this name. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 00:43, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply



Hi, thanks for reviewing this contribution.

Please do a search in Google Books for Halmos and "Emma Lemma" ( https://www.google.com/search?num=100&newwindow=1&tbm=bks&ei=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22&oq=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emoritz2017 ( talkcontribs) 01:25, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply

you will notice that Google Books search returns the two following items. (quotes of search return including Emma Lemma term are bolded).

"I Want to be a Mathematician: An Automathography - Page 93

Paul Halmos ..."

The term "Emma Lemma" is an inside term used by mathematicians of that era; Paul Halmos is one of the most distinguished American Mathematicians; the fact that Halmos finds it sufficient to include the term in the memoir section during his time at the Institute of Advanced Studies while working as John Von Neumann's assistant should be sufficient to validate its significance and notability.

In addition, by including that discussion in his biography, Halmos points to the significance of the book Emma Lehmer translated and Emma Lehmer's significance as an American woman mathematician. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 01:21, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete or Redirect/merge to Emma Lehmer. I think it's obvious that there's not enough to say about the nickname itself for a standalone article. An alternative would be redirecting this to a (currently non-existent) article about Pontryagin's book, if it's sufficiently notable. (I think it's obvious that if the original book isn't notable enough for a standalone article then clearly the nickname of its translation isn't either). Pichpich ( talk) 00:06, 25 June 2018 (UTC) reply


Pichpich, thank you for the suggestion ... sounds like adding notes to the Emma Lehmer and to Lev Pontryagin articles and also creating an article for the book itself is the appropriate way forward. Google Scholar shows it has been cited by 1648 works. Part of the significance of the book is that it was purposely translated from the Russian text by the American Mathematical Society by Emma Lehmer. -- By the way, in researching this further, I found yet another reference to the use of Emma Lemma"", in [1] [this work is focused on the contribution of Russian Mathematicians, this article states "In 1939 he was elected Corre- sponding Member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, and full mem- bership came in 1958 [38, p. 21]. This last election was planned and carried through by I. M. Vinogradov. In 1940 he was one of the first recipients of the Stalin Prize (later called the State Prize) for his monograph Topological Groups [38, p. 13]. Pontryagin was honored with the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, the Order of the Badge of Honor, the Golden Star of a Hero of Socialist Labor, more than once with the Order of Lenin, and also with the LobachevskflPrize for his research. He was also Editor-in-Chief of Matem- aticheski~ Sbornik for some time."

So USSR apparently awarded him its highest honors (Academy Membership, Stalin Prize, ...) for this book, and the U.S. American Mathematical Society commissioned the translation of this book from Emma Lehmer due to its significance. The article I cited here also states "This theory, historically, was the first really exceptional achievement in algebraic topology", which quite a distinctive assessment.

  • Comment I have no objection to an article on the book "Topological Groups", but dispute that "Emma Lemma" ever referred to that book. All of the "other" references appear to be direct quotes of Halmos. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 19:21, 25 June 2018 (UTC) reply

I am not clear what you mean by this last comment. I provided one direct quote in a book by Paul Halmos, a noted mathematician that worked at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, and was an established mathematician working premier math departments (U. of Chicago for example), as well as two references citing his work (one in another book, and one in a journal), those are all publically available, and they clearly refer to Emma Lemma as the Lehmer English translation of Pontryagin's book by Emma Lehmer ( UC Berkley, and later independent mathematician who has hundreds of publications to her name).

Currently, there are several English translations:

(1) Topological Groups: Translated from the Russian by Emma Lehmer https://books.google.com/books?id=gl4nAQAAIAAJ Lev Semenovich Pontri︠a︡gin - 1939 -

(2) Topological Groups: Translated from the Russian by Arlen Brown https://books.google.com/books?id=TmuqtAEACAAJ Lev S. Pontrjagin - 1966 - ‎

(3) Topological Groups (Classics of Soviet Mathematics) (Volume 2) 1st Edition by R. V. Gamkrelidze (Author) (appears in Amazon as ISBN-10: 2881241336, as part of a four volume series of Prontrjagin's work, and published by CRC Press; 1 edition (March 6, 1987).

Note that different translators translate the author's name with slight variations; the 1987 version preface states that the translations have translated certain terms differently given the over 40 years that elapsed between the first translation and the 1987 translation.

  • Delete or redirect/merge to Emma Lehmer. I find it very hard to believe that anyone with any proficiency in English would consider this nickname as applying to the book rather than to the translator. All the sources mentioned in the article and above are just copies of Halmos' quote. Paul Halmos was a careful expositor, had he been referring to the book he would have explained why the nickname was not grammatically correct (the appropriate nickname would have been "Emma's Lemmas" if the book was intended).
  • Delete or Redirect/merge to Emma Lehmer (see comment below). I guess that "Emma Lemma" is simply a transcription transliteration of the Russian name of Emma Lehmer. In fact, in Russian, names have a different form for men and women. The female version is often obtained by adding "a" to the male version, but this does not work with the final "er". So "Lema" or "Lemma" is the probable (I do not know enough Russian for being sure) female form of Lemer (the "h" disappears automatically with the transliteration in Russian). D.Lazard ( talk) 09:05, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Just to be explicit: I did not refer to your use of "transcribe", but to the article's itself. I do, however, consider Lehmera to be a perfect female Russian form for a male name Lehmer, I disagree with the hypothesis of Lem(m)a being an appropriate female form for male Lehmer, and I agree on the highly irregular lengthening of a vowel by a postponed "h" not appearing within the Russian language.

  • Delete (the Emma Lemma-article)explication on request. 08:23, 4 July 2018 (UTC) I strongly dispute even the factual correctness of this "article". "Emma Lemma" is defintly no "transcription", it is, at best, a funny(?) gaming with the pronunciation of "Emma Lehmer", possibly with slight German/Russian attitude, creating a phonetic nearness to a technical term in math, preceded by an alliterating female first name. Taking this as a transcription, hints to a severe spelling flaw. Considering wide spread objections to the inclusion of trivia in WP, there may be even doubt that this singularly(?) ascribed nick name/nom de plume/nom de guerre should be mentioned at all in the article about Emma Lehmer. Purgy ( talk) 07:31, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply
The current (obviously wrong) statement was made up by D.Lazard, because apparently who needs sourcing when you can just invent nonsense? On the other hand, the previous (also obviously wrong) statements were the result of a strange misreading of a source. It would be good to be clear whether you want to delete only the new wrong thing or actually the article in all forms. -- 2601:142:3:F83A:611C:BD4F:C063:4BF2 ( talk) 13:06, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Hi, as the originator of the article, I find this discussion fascinating. please send me an email where I can respond to you by providing a screenshot image of the paragraph by Halmos. My intent was to point out a fact that shed light on some social/sociological/linguistic practices in the stratosphere of the professional mathematics community. The fact is supported by several references. The interpretation of the fact appears contentious. This was not my intent; my intent was to provide broader awareness of that fact. In the grand scheme of things, I am fine with deletion of the Emma Lemma page I started. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 15:59, 3 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Thank you for this kind offer. I never doubted that Halmos reported this nick name/nom de plume/nom de guerre as used by fellow mathematicians. However, Halmos' claim remains poorly sourced, if not unsourced. Purgy ( talk) 08:23, 4 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. It appears that my guess about the meaning of "Emma Lemma" is definitively wrong. However this is clearly a nickname of Emma Lehmer, not of the book. A nick name that has been used in a single mathematical department and that has been reported in a single source (the other sources are quotations of Halmos) has no encyclopedic value. This a case of WP:1R. I have thus changed my !vote to delete. I have also edited Emma Lehmer for clarifying the meaning of "Emma Lemma". D.Lazard ( talk) 09:58, 4 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Comment. There is no puzzle about the Maritz article. The call out is the direct quote of Halmos that has been cited over and over, and is attributed to him. It is included because Halmos is praising the book in a particularly exuberant Halmos way. I would also point out to my esteemed colleagues, who have greater international "chops" than I, that this is almost without a doubt a sophomoric graduate student attempt at humor at an English speaking university. Halmos is being light-hearted by passing this along (he may even have originated it in his younger days, but that is a guess).

      The article notes:

      When you move, you make discoveries. You own more stuff than you thought. There aren't enough shelves, and people have given you a lot of old pictures. Members of Fremont's two historical organizations are making those discoveries. Still, they're delighted with their new home -- the Museum of Local History, housed in a former fire station on Anza Street in the Mission San Jose area.

      "Both groups have collected absolutely marvelous things," said Sherry Nighswonger, chairwoman of the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. "We're hoping everyone will just be astounded by our treasures."

      Since last month, Mission Peak and the Washington Township Historical Society have moved more than 100 years' worth of history -- yellowing maps, land grants, steamer trunks, clothes, a sulky for trotting races, a piano that came around the Horn, cobbler's tools, farm implements -- into the building. These artifacts had been hidden in the city's corporation yard, upstairs at the Olive Hyde Art Gallery, the Mission San Jose museum and various other sites throughout the Tri-Cities.

      ...

      The city modified the 2,400-square-foot space -- making the building accessible to all citizens, modifying restrooms and adding climate control for the room with documents and photographs -- at a cost of about $100,000. Under a 20-year lease, the historical societies will rent the building for $1 a year, staff it, maintain the landscaping and pay utilities, expected to be around $150 a month.

      The article notes:

      IT'S BEEN YEARS in the making and involved a cast of thousands: Ohlones, Spanish, Mexicans, Chinese, Japanese, Americans. Even movie stars Charlie Chaplin and Bronco Billy.

      The museum, Mission San w Jose's third, is in a converted fire station on Anza Street and will focus on 19th century Washington Township, which became today's cities of Fremont, Union City and Newark.

      Another museum, at the old mission, covers Ohlone and mission periods while a third, at Ohlone College, deals with the Irvingtonian fossils of the Pleistocene epoch, 1.36 million years ago.

      The museum is a joint effort of the city, the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation.

      AMONG THE artifacts in the 2,400-square-foot museum are a carriage used at the Patterson Ranch, the cradle of C.J. Stevens (the first white child born in Washington Township) and the only remaining spotlight from Charlie Chaplin's Essanay Studios in Niles. There is a huge wok used by the Chinese cooks at the Shinn Ranch, a giant bellows from the blacksmith in Niles and lots of books, maps and newspaper clippings.

      The article notes:

      Regina Dennie, docent coordinator of the Museum of Local History, had missed only one monthly museum board meeting in eight years -- until last October.

      That's when the 72-year Mission San Jose resident said directors refused to disclose how museum money was being spent. She hasn't been to a meeting since then.

      Dennie, a member of the original board in 1995 whose term expired several years ago, still opens the Anza Street museum twice a week, leads occasional tours and coordinates about a dozen volunteer docents.

      ...

      The museum, in the former Mission Fire Station, opened in 1992 under the supervision of the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. In October 1995, the two groups formed the nonprofit Museum of Local History, and continued to rent the building from the city for $1 a year.

      The group has an average annual budget of approximately $5,000 for expenses such as utilities and insurance.

      The article notes:

      In 1950, Southern California native Robert Fisher set up a doctor's practice in southern Alameda County's Irvington district, settling in what was then a rural-but-growing Washington Township after Army service. Soon the doctor discovered many of his patients were from the founding families of the region that would become Fremont.

      ...

      Recollections of the elderly patients prompted Fisher's decadeslong efforts to gather archives, photographs, oral histories and other records on the area -- now Fremont, Newark and Union City -- dating from Spanish colonial times.

      Fisher, who later helped incorporate the city of Fremont in 1956, became its foremost historian and a staunch defender of historic sites.

      ...

      Monday morning, movers donating their time hauled the multitude of items from Fisher's retirement home in Mendocino into a small room of the Museum of Local History.

      A group of hard-working volunteers is transforming a weed-covered lot near Mission San Jose into a colorful garden that showcases Fremont's early years.

      For months, the volunteers pulled weeds, spread compost, dug trenches and researched native plants to create a memory garden in front of the Museum of Local History at Anza and Ellsworth streets. The garden is about two-thirds complete.

      Their goal is to beautify a small section of Fremont, introduce local residents to native plants that need little water and maintenance, and educate students about the days when Ohlone Indians had thriving communities here.

  • Keep This is a sensible spinoff from the main article about Parkrun and so the worst case would be to merge back there, per WP:PRESERVE. There's no reason to do this though as the page passes WP:LISTN. For example, see London Parkrun reviews. Andrew D. ( talk) 17:44, 16 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep, because Parkruns are quite different from normal 5Ks in that their spread has been a subject of substantial independent media coverage, including in the Wall Street Journal [4], The Guardian [5], and many others (111,000 Google News results with quotes around the term). Much of this coverage is focused on or assumes knowledge of the locations / number of Parkrun races, so a complete list is very helpful in a reference work to comprehend the coverage, which is one reason for Wikipedia lists in the first place. Whether or not a list is available on other websites or the PR site should have no bearing on this Wikipedia article, so I don't think that should be used as a deletion reason (but for the record I was not able to find a list with as much info online).
I agree that the article was not perfect, so I took action and made some changes to eliminate all the promotional language / peacock terms and fix the sources. Most of the races listed also have third-party coverage -- maybe not enough to warrant their own articles, but certainly the article could be improved further by adding those third-party references to each list item if anyone wants to try that. I also think it's worth noting that this notability issue was discussed three months ago with some very important points to consider on the talk page here. The Wikipedians in that discussion ultimately kept the article, and I think it should remain on the wiki for others to improve it.

  • Hi Ajf773, thanks for your points. I don't think the fact that lists are available elsewhere online is a valid deletion reason -- just because you can probably find the List of The Big Bang Theory episodes on a company website doesn't mean it shouldn't be on Wikipedia. Likewise every entry on a Wikipedia list doesn't need to be article-worthy (though I think some specific Parkruns certainly are), for example see how most of the entries in the prior list don't have their own articles. While Wikipedia isn't a directory, it is a reference work, and I think a list of Parkruns in the UK, where the vast majority of Parkrun coverage is centered around, is a valuable addition to an encyclopedia to understand that news coverage, as nearly all of the hundreds of Parkrun articles in the British media are centered around knowledge of a particular Parkrun event. -- Habst ( talk) 03:38, 19 June 2018 (UTC) reply

That's because the list is a directory, not an article. Ajf773 ( talk) 21:35, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
I understand that, but I don't consider it a directory as much as I consider it a table in a reference work that aids my understanding of Parkrun-related news coverage. For example reading the article "10 fastest times at UK parkruns" released just yesterday, this list can be very helpful to understand which courses are fast and where they all are. -- Habst ( talk) 09:54, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
Hi Rwxrwxrwx, I think there are actually quite a few of these list items that have articles, for example Bushy Parkrun, Nonsuch Parkrun, Weald Country Park#Brentwood Parkrun, Kingsbury Water Park#Events, Shorne Wood Country Park#parkrun, Victoria Park, Belfast#Belfast Victoria Parkrun, Hesketh Park, Southport#Parkrun, Victoria Park, Widnes#Parkrun, Victoria Park, St Helens#Parkrun, Kings Park, Boscombe#Attractions, and Wepre Park#Parkrun among many others. Rather than being deleted the list should be improved by linking to them. I think the list pretty clearly satisifies WP:SAL, which does not state that organizations in a list each need to be worthy of their own articles (though some certainly are in this case). I don't think shortening the list is the right move but it's certainly better than deletion; the list would not be pointless in that case anyways as there are hundreds of lists which use the {{ Dynamic list}} template in this way. -- Habst ( talk) 13:50, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
Sections of articles (using the # symbol) are NOT articles. Ajf773 ( talk) 21:35, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
I agree, Ajf773. That's why I think that the list meets WP:SAL#Lists of companies and organizations, because individual articles per parkrun are not needed (but in some cases they do exist anyways). -- Habst ( talk) 09:54, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
A significant number need to be notable. Majority of those links are passing mentions. There are two articles, one of which barely survived an AfD. Ajf773 ( talk) 10:51, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
I think all of the listed parkruns are notable in the colloquial sense of the term. In terms of WP:N, I don't think WP:SAL says that a significant number of the entries need to be notable (they would if this was a list of living people, but as this is a list of events it does not apply). There are over three million registered Parkrun users, and I think the organization is in general underrepresented on Wikipedia. -- Habst ( talk) 12:51, 24 June 2018 (UTC) reply
I do not think lists in Wikipedia are supposed to be either exhaustive or deleted, Rwxrwxrwx. I'm sure we accept lists of whatever is known and can be gathered, as long as the list is adequate and serves an encyclopaedic purpose. There's always the implied authorization to expand and improve.

We should have better than a little local blurb like that to justify adding crime-related aspects of a BLP unrelated to their claim to notability, and once that's removed it's again unsourced. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 04:28, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete My talk page was one of the ones where the subject requested deletion. I was avoiding commenting (a bit creeped out by having this end up on my page) but since this has been relisted I'll bite the bullet. The fact that almost the entire article is an unsourced piece written by the subject is unfortunate, but not in itself reason to delete. Assuming that the career information is correct (I have no reason not to believe it) and that reliable sources can be found to support those claims (likely) this comes down to a notability decision based on the claims in the article. I agree with the statements by other editors that this does not pass WP:ENT or WP:PERP or WP:CREATIVE or WP:ANYBIO,. and I'm not seeing WP:BASIC .Could this article be saved? Possibly, but I doubt it. Should it be saved? I don't think so. I'm certainly not going to attempt to do so, and after two weeks it does look like anyone else wants to attempt to save this article either. The only properly sourced material in the entire article is the statement that the subject was sentenced to prison on a child pornography charge, and that he was a producer on Growing Pains (in the same source).

  • Weak Keep: Eh, this one is a really tough call for me. I do think that a couple of these sources, Josh Yguado is the primary focus of the article. See both: [27], [28].

There is nothing here in the article that would appear to satisfy WP:NHOOPS nor WP:N. All of the coverage is rather routine articles about high school or junior college games, and it does not appear that the Junior Basketball Association meets the standard to provide notability as an athlete.

  • Redirect name to Boris Becker article; otherwise, trivial and not notable for stand alone article. Kierzek ( talk) 19:46, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comment on the proposal to redirect: I thought of that, but quickly wondered why it should redirect to Boris Becker and not to Arne Quinze. And, after a couple more seconds, why an article on anybody should redirect to the article on anybody she'd divorced: such a redirect would seem to say that she's no more than an appendage to the person she previously divorced, which strikes me as gratuitously insulting. -- Hoary ( talk) 22:16, 23 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - "appendage", I would not say that; you are reading too much into it; the fact is Becker is the last name she kept and apparently uses, and certainly he is much better known, but frankly in the end it does not matter which one. She is too trivial for stand alone article. Kierzek ( talk) 00:05, 27 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep, reasonably notable German TV actress. No idea why her acting career isn't featured in the article. — Kusma ( t· c) 08:36, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Kusma, would you care to add a couple of reliable, non-trivial (etc etc) sources for this reasonable notability? I don't even know which name I should use when searching. And if the article survives, how do you think it should be titled? As I've indicated, it would normally strike me as insulting to retain a name used before a divorce, another wedding and another divorce; but I'm willing to believe that extraordinary circumstances may justify this. -- Hoary ( talk) 22:14, 26 June 2018 (UTC) reply
    • Much of the original acting career is as "Barbara Feltus", like her IMDB profile. Looking at that, she seems less notable as an actress in her own right than Meghan Markle was, but her marriage to Boris Becker was a huge event in 1990s Germany, as was the subsequent divorce. To this day, she is one of the most prominent people of colour in Germany, always as "Barbara Becker". For example, here is a recent debate about racism that she was involved in. Have you done a Google News search? Of course a lot of the results are tabloid journalism, but why does that mean we shouldn't have an article about her? — Kusma ( t· c) 10:10, 27 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • I can partly agree with you, Kusma: It doesn't matter how great a percentage of the material about her is tabloidy; if there's a significant amount that isn't tabloidy, then she could be encyclopedia-worthy. The article you've linked to isn't tabloidy. But what does it say about her? That she's (justifiably, imho) appalled by racism, and that she's a DJ and painter. But there's nothing about her activities as a DJ or painter, about her other/earlier activities, or her other notability. If other articles showed her notability as an actor, DJ, painter or whatever, then yes she should get an article, and something about her family and its subjection to racism should be part of this article, and this would be a good source for the latter. But I've yet to see evidence of notability. -- Hoary ( talk) 02:31, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • If you're saying, Kierzek, that somebody's notability for speakers/readers of language X is a lot greater than her notability for speakers/readers of English, and that this may justify an article about her in X-language Wikipedia without justifying one in English-language Wikipedia, then I disagree. If German-language sources alone demonstrated that she was notable, she'd be notable, even if she were totally unknown to those who don't speak/read German. -- Hoary ( talk) 02:31, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • If you spent time on German and Japanese Wikipedia as I do, you would see my point, but there is no reason to go down that rabbit hole. The fact is, Ms. Becker is not notable enough for a separate article and does not meet GNG. Kierzek ( talk) 13:06, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • I'm happy not to spend much time in Japanese-language Wikipedia, which appears to be edited vigorously by many people whose favorite activity is adding unsourced lists. Occasionally I'm surprised to discover a sourced and good article there. However, as you say, we digress. -- Hoary ( talk) 13:23, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply
  • The English one is becoming rather odd. I clicked on a link to "A week in the life of the superwoman" and was instead sent to "Barbara Becker: Eine Woche im Leben der Powerfrau". The damn website refused to serve up the page unless I disabled my ad-blocker, which I wouldn't do; skimreading through the source, I find that for example she's a healthy woman who enjoys gardening. Where's the notability? -- Hoary ( talk) 13:23, 28 June 2018 (UTC) reply

Let's look at these mainstream citations. Here they are, one by one, with my brief descriptions of what they say about Barbara Becker (BB):
  • BBC: the Beckers' marriage, "the bombshell that the two had broken up", and the financial aspects of their divorce. Nothing else about BB.
  • LA Times: "Becker's Divorce Battle With American Wife Rivets Germans"; also, on media frenzy around this "battle". BB was a "former actress and model" with black hair and black eyes.
  • CNN: On the divorce settlement. BB, "a former model and actress, is the daughter of a former U.S. Army medical corps officer", was 33 years old.
  • Observer: On the impending court case. We learn that BB was half of "Germany's most high-profile interracial marriage", and that she "had become accepted beyond the confines of the progressive Left", that "She was an actress and model - the daughter of a German mother and an American father who came to Europe as a lieutenant in the medical corps and stayed on to become a successful photographer and designer."
  • Telegraph: She's the mother of Noah Becker, and she "has a German mother and an African-American father".
No argument from me that these are from reliable sources (though the BBC and the Observer articles both seem uncharacteristically tabloidy). But what do they say? I see no evidence in any of these five that BB was/is notable for anything other than marrying Boris Becker (and thereby upsetting racist birdbrains), having two sons, and going through a noisy divorce. There's nothing whatever about her Boris-independent achievements as a model, an actress, or anything else. I don't deny that she has had them (I really don't know); but if she has had them, then they're not apparent from this material. -- Hoary ( talk) 22:44, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Hoary I get that you're trying to find things in the articles that you think justify her notability, but has it occurred to you that the fact that reliable news organizations (and tabloids) keep writing articles about her is *because* she is notable? Not all notable people deserve their notability ( Kardashians ???) but it doesn't mean that they're not notable. Robman94 ( talk) 16:23, 5 July 2018 (UTC) reply
Robman94, I suppose that news and gossip sources write about her either because she's notable for something or because she has notability inherited from one or other of her ex-husbands or ... I dunno. I'm very willing to believe that it's the first of these, as indeed Kusma has suggested above. Indeed, I hope that it is. I did take a quick look for evidence of this; I found nothing. I'm willing to believe that my search was incompetent/inadequate; but the last time I looked, nobody had added or even referred to an appreciable amount of superior sourcery. (If they did, I'd withdraw this nomination.) Family Kardashian (and Ms P Hilton) do seem to be mere celebs, "famous for being famous", but for those Americans (perhaps in part because they are Americans) there are TV shows and much more involved; and the volume of coverage, undeserved/vapid though it may be, is vastly greater. Incidentally, I hope that I don't need to say this, but I bear the subject of this article no ill-will (I have no opinion about any divorce procedure/settlement, or about either ex-husband), and am appalled to read of the racist treatment of her and at least one of her sons. -- Hoary ( talk) 11:02, 6 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - non-notable, run of the mill businessman who fails to meet WP:BIO and WP:SIGCOV. Note that Wikipedia subjects should not inherit notability from a notable subject; this is pertinent as the coverage about Beynon concerns the company he co-founded (Mighty Group Inc) and not himself. It must also be noted that Mighty is widely characterized as a startup, and thus WP:TOOSOON applies to any source covering the company. Other sources are merely make passing mention of Beynon, and thus are not in-depth. Finally, the article as it stands does not assert any claims to significance, and Wikipedia does not hold businessmen to be innately notable.-- SamHolt6 ( talk) 04:36, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Fails NPOL and GNG. Yes, there are some mentions of her, mostly relating to one specific event (BLP1E, anyone?) but aside from the inaccurate claim of adequate sourcing at the time of the last AfD (the sources did not support the point of notability that was being suggested), there is nothing to indicate even now that this person meets the criteria and there has obviously been an issue with conflict of interest.

Non-notable footy club. No sources to demonstrate notability except the Untouchables article from 2007. No additional coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject have surfaced since the AfD in 2008. [35] They might be playing in a very slightly higher league now than they were in 2008, but there are no guidelines for subject specific notability for sports teams; they are still required to meet the General Notability Guideline. I originally CSDed this article as a previously deleted article, under G4, but others thought that the league change was enough that G4 was not appropriate. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 01:12, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Speedy keep Club now plays at step 6, and consensus from dozens of previous AfDs (a few examples here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) is that this is sufficient to make the club notable. I was the nominator in the original AfD when they did not meet this criteria. Number 5 7 08:14, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, you can't speedy keep on that. Guidelines clearly state that teams must meet the GNG. While Step 6 or above might be an indication that clubs may meet the GNG, that does not appear to be the case with this club. There is no guideline that states that playing at step 6 or above confers some sort of automatic notability. Of your six examples: the ones that were kept met the GNG, the ones that were deleted did not, and generally !voters were clear in all the discussions that sources were either available or lacking, while some !votes mentioned 'generally accepted criteria', these are not part of any policy or guideline that I could find. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 08:27, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
OTHERSTUFFEXISTS can be a valid or invalid argument in a deletion debate. It's a valid rationale when you're arguing (for instance) that all other clubs at this level have articles (which they do, aside from a few others who have just been promoted and no-one has created them yet).
While you're correct that this is not explicitly written in a guideline, it's more because it's overly specific (each country would have a different cutoff point). It was previously listed in WP:NCORP, but was removed as being unnecessarily specific. Since then I don't think anyone has ever felt the need to readd it, given the fact that very few editors have ever had a problem with the situation. However, I think the mentions of it in the numerous AfDs clearly demonstrate that the rule remains in place. I don't believe an article on a club playing at step 6 has ever been deleted. Number 5 7 08:45, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
I suspect very few editors have had a problem because the 'cuttoff point' that you speak of generally coincides with meeting or not meeting the GNG with sources. In this case it does not though, and the GNG trumps any kind of common practice in walled gardens. Per Govvy, they haven't actually played in that division yet anyway, perhaps when they have there will be additional coverage and they will meet the GNG. In the meantime, there isn't sufficient sourcing to demonstrate notability. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 09:21, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comments I ran a bit quick yesterday, as I really don't like speedy deletions, @ Insertcleverphrasehere: I believe articles with any citations available and that have had a long period before being recreated should be given a fair trial and shouldn't ever be speedy deleted. Anyway, from looking at previous AfD and thefa.com website they registered two years ago to play in the FA Vase for the first time in the clubs existence, but they failed FA ground rules policy by having no lights. I am surprised there is no local news source for this on the article. If that issue with their ground has been fixed and the fact they gained promotion they will most likely have to register this coming season, this gives them a chance to enter FA Vase or FA Cup again. If we are going by the criteria that they need to play in an FA sanctioned cup competition to pass then they currently still fail Wikipedia guidelines to have an article. That could change by August know, but that's playing WP:CRYSTAL. Govvy ( talk) 09:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
    • @ Govvy: The criteria is playing at step 6, or in the FA Cup/Trophy/Vase. There are some clubs that have only achieved the former (usually clubs at step 6 without lights) and some the latter (the few that enter the Vase from step 7). If for whatever reason Ensign resign from the league before the season starts, I'll happily delete the article. However, for now they're part of a step 6 league. Number 5 7 09:20, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep If this one goes, that's dozens of other step 6 club articles that would have to follow. As Number 57 has said, I've never seen a step 6 club article deleted before. Why this particular one, out of interest? It seems like the main criteria being used here is that someone erroneously thought White Ensign were notable back in 2008 so the article was rightly deleted back then. There are several step 6 clubs who meet GNG who hadn't even been founded then. OGLV ( talk) 09:17, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
@ OGLV: That depends, most step 6 clubs also meet the GNG, so there would be no reason to delete. Why this particular one? Because it doesn't currently have sufficient sourcing to meet the general notability guideline. The guidelines are clear that there are no subject specific notability criteria or 'automatic' notability for teams, they must meet the GNG with sourcing. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 09:28, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Comment. Well, you deleted some of our clubs playing on much higher level than this one... Linhart ( talk) 14:39, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
WikiProjects should not just make up notability guidelines that directly contradict established guidelines. WP:NSPORT clearly states that teams must meet the GNG, and WP:NCORP specifically excludes teams. This is a disturbing result and indicates that a walled garden is developing amongst football editors. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 19:25, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
As noted above, it was once included in a project-wide notability guideline (WP:NCORP), but was removed for being too specific. Number 5 7 19:37, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
The entire NCORP guideline was rewritten a few months ago through extended discussion, and teams were specifically excluded from the guideline by consensus. — Insertcleverphrasehere ( or here) 19:45, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply

There isn't a need for this barely-edited standalone article, the information is already contained already be found in the relevant Korean War articles (See this, this and this) and the material that's currently there is unimportant, unsourced and controversial. I suggest turning this article into a disambiguation page which refers to the Chongchon and Chosin Reservoir battles. Wingwraith ( talk) 00:22, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply

This article was created as a stub and with a slightly different title in 2009. Today I proposed to expand the article and duly tagged it as under-construction, but so far have only revised the summary paragraph.
The sudden desire of User:Wingwraith to delete the article is curious, especially as he has just been deleting referenced material I inserted in the article titled Battle of Chosin Reservoir. During our discussion of those edits, User:Wingwraith has referred to my edits as "fascist," and "hysterical."
I refer to the above only to suggest to other editors that User:Wingwraith's motives in proposing that this article be deleted may not be driven by his desire to improve Wikipedia.
User:Wingwraith cites cite three articles that he says already contain the information that would be included in Second Phase Campaign (Korean War). The first article he cited, the Korean War article, is general and has little detail about specific campaigns and battles. The part of the Korean War article related to the Second Phase Offensive is only fifteen lines long. The articles Battle of Chosin Reservoir and Battle of Ch'ongch'on River are about specific battles carried out during the Second Phase Offensive. There is some information about Chinese strategy, objectives, military capabilities, etc. included in these articles, but about 90 percent of each of these articles is focused on the U.S. forces and actions. Thus, it seems a clear and present need for a wikipedia article which contains more complete and relevant information about a Chinese military campaign which defeated the UN/US forces in North Korea and forced them to retreat and withdraw from South Korea. Lacking at present in Wikipedia is detail about Chinese decision making in launching the Second Phase Offensive, strategy, tactics, and weapons of the Chinese army, and the consequences of those battles on Chinese forces and strategy for pursuing the war. That is the subject matter of the article User:Wingwraith proposes for deletion.
There is a growing body of scholarly work in English about the Chinese participation in the Korean War. That material would be tapped for this article. My editing and expansion of this article would be for the purpose of broadening a reader's knowledge of the Korean War beyond the U.S-centric focus of current wikipedia articles about the Second Phase Campaign. It was no small campaign, by the way, involving about 350,000 soldiers on both the Chinese and the UN/US sides. Smallchief ( talk)
1) There's nothing curious about my proposal to delete this article. It's something that anybody can do and I came upon this article organically ever since my engagement with you on the the Chosin Reservoir talk page. In any case it's no less curious then your sudden interest in this article after it was left untouched for over a year. Do not try to make it out like I am hounding you.
2) My description of your edits on that page was based on the facts of what you wrote whereas your assertion that my proposal is not driven by my desire to improve Wikipedia is a violation of WP:AGF which will be further noted should that need arise.
3) We can integrate all the material that you've referred to into the other articles. What is this article going to tell us that we can't already find in the other three? Both of articles whose topics are about the two battles that the campaign mainly comprised of (Ch'ongch'on River and Chosin Reservoir) are listed as good warfare articles so that's even more of a reason to integrate your sources there first. Also, it doesn't make sense to discuss strategy, tactics, weapons, etc on an article like this which should be about generalities and not specificities, if you do that you will start to make whole sections in the two other articles redundant. You'll also note that there's no standalone article for the First, Third and Fourth Phase Campaign so you will need to explain why this campaign in particular deserves a standalone article.
4) "My editing and expansion of this article would be for the purpose of broadening a reader's knowledge of the Korean War" Do not make yourself out to be an impartial editor on this matter when your contributions on the Chosin Reservoir articles prove that you are editing from a pro-PVA perspective.

  • Delete Move to draft. Poor spinoff of Korean War - content in main article is more developed. I'll note that this is a notable topic, and could be developed standalone - but at the present state there is nothing to salvage here that isn't the main article. Should this article be developed, it should be named Second phase offensive which seems to be, by far, the COMMONNAME. Icewhiz ( talk) 12:22, 1 July 2018 (UTC) If we have an editor willing to work on this - it is notable standalone. Icewhiz ( talk) 12:36, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
The article is under construction and is so tagged. It has existed as a stub since 2009, and only yesterday did I begin to add material to elevate it from stub category. Please note the underconstruction tag at the head of the article. As the article has existed as a stub without challenge to its notability since 2009, some time should be allowed for it to be developed beyond a stub.
I am perfectly happy with the name Second phase offensive as an alternative to Second Phase Campaign.
One problem is that there is no "main article." There are two articles about separate battles in the Second Phase Campaign or Offensive: Battle of Chosin Reservoir and Battle of Ch'ongch'on. These two battles were one operation in the Chinese mind. An overview article is desirable which goes into more detail about the Chinese preparation and carrying out of the offensive -- and the decision making process of US commanders and intelligence officers that led the UN forces to advance into the teeth of a major Chinese attack. The failures of imagination and Intelligence on the part of the U.S. in Korea are similar in many ways to the failures in the Tet Offensive during the Vietnam War. The Second Phase Offensive in Korea and Tet in Vietnam had similar outcomes -- they caused a loss of confidence by the American people and leaders that the Korean and Vietnam wars could be won.
There is precedent for an article about the Second phase offensive. The follow-on Fifth phase offensive has a Wikipedia article in good standing titled Chinese Spring Offensive. Perhaps the First, Third, and Fourth phase offensives also deserve articles. In any case, the Second phase offensive was, I believe, the most politically and militarily decisive of the five Chinese offensives. In other words, it is highly notable.

I have created 127 articles, none of them stubs, in my eight years as a Wikipedia editor. I've never had an article deleted (although I had one transferred to User space because it was an essay rather than an article). Bear with me. I'm building an article that was a nothing-stub when I began working on it yesterday. Smallchief ( talk) 20:48, 1 July 2018 (UTC) reply
@ Smallchief: Modified my !vote to move to draft (and if you brush this up enough in the coming week - I'll change my vote to keep). My concern is at the present state of the article - I agree the topic is notable standalone. Icewhiz ( talk) 12:36, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
@ Icewhiz: Agreed. Now, if I can figure out how to move it..... Smallchief ( talk) 13:17, 2 July 2018 (UTC) reply
