  • A web search is hardly the way to look for independent reliable sources about just about anything, let alone an entity that hasn't existed for nearly 20 years. More focussed searches find sources such as doi: 10.1108/09555349910281405, doi: 10.1016/S0167-4048(99)80014-4 and very many more. Phil Bridger ( talk) 08:20, 9 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Glad you found a few sources. Did you find them by going through your local library's catalogue? ;) BTW, I'm not sure how much those sources count toward nobility. They seem questionable to me, but I'll let someone else decide that. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 00:09, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
I found them by a simple Google Scholar search, as can be done by simply clicking on the word "scholar" at the top of this discussion. More can be found by a Google Books search. What seems questionable about them? They look like cast-iron reliable sources to me: much better than the random web sites that you seem to be looking for. Phil Bridger ( talk) 06:13, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nothing is questionable about them. Just that you said doing a web search isn't the way to find reliable sources, but that's exactly how you found them. That said, the second source is trivial coverage. WP:NCORP says product releases don't count for notability. All the other sources on Google Scholar seem to be the same and not specifically about the company. It's not like I didn't look through them to be sure when I did the AfD. Notability isn't inherited. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 17:56, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
If you just read the first couple of paragraphs of the second source you will see that the whole paper is about an initiative of Europay. And as I said, there are many more sources found by these simple searches. Just take a look rather than do web searches as you said you had. These are searches of academic papers and books, not the web. This is a very notable entity that was one of the two biggest credit card operators in Europe for many years. Just recognise that you were wrong rather than dig yourself deeper into a hole. Phil Bridger ( talk) 18:52, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep as it seems to easily pass GNG and pretty clearly at least fits in the realm of WP:CORPDEPTH with a straightforward google search. Have some time this morning to put those on the page, just filtering out the ones that aren't significant enough to really help with notability. 67.243.20.177 ( talk) 14:05, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Not that I don't appreciate your effort, but all the sources you added are trivial coverage and don't establish notability according to WP:NCORP. Generally speaking, sources about product releases and mergers don't work. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 18:00, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete References for the most part are about MasterCard buying Europay and they are simply regurgitation of press releases.

    Phil Bridger, Dude you can't be serious. Those aren't "academic papers". The first is some non-notable, not peer reviewed journal, that by their own site description ANYONE can write for. The second was written by an employee of Europay. If you want to reply or contribute to the AfD discussion in a meaningful manner, please don't try to pass off unreliable and primary articles as "academic papers". Sheesh. Sulfurboy ( talk) 06:48, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    Now you are the one not being serious. Where on Earth do you get the idea that the European Business Review, published by Emerald Publishing, is not peer-reviewed? Yes, anyone can submit a paper, as with any academic journal, but, by their own site description, it will only be published if it passes peer review. Phil Bridger ( talk) 06:58, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    If that journal was even marginally worth its salt it'd be indexed in JCR or Scopus. It's not. Fail. At least you gave up on trying to push that second "academic paper" that was written by the company. Sulfurboy ( talk) 07:29, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    It is indexed by Scopus, where it is rated 10th out of 81 journals in the category "Business, Management and Accounting (miscellaneous)". First you lied about it not being peer-reviewed and now you are lying about it not being indexed by Scopus. Please stop. And I stand by the "very many more" that I said in my first post to this discussion. Phil Bridger ( talk) 10:25, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - both sources that Phil Bridger has identified were papers written by Europay employees. The second has already been identified as such, the first was written by “Marc Dutrieux (Senior Manager, Smart Card Development at Europay International.)” Cardiffbear88 ( talk) 18:35, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • This is just getting ridiculous. The subject was one of the two credit card processors that dominated the European market until it merged with Mastercard, rather than representing it as it had done before, in 2002. That fact is sourced in the article. This is one of the most clear-cut notable articles that I have ever seen at AfD. I despair for the future of Wikipedia if people can actually support deletion of this article. OK, I didn't go out of my way to check the credentials of the authors of the articles I linked above, but they were just two of the hundreds of reliable sources that can be found simply by clicking the searches spoon-fed by the nomination process. Phil Bridger ( talk) 18:45, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • What do you disagree with? That this was one of the two dominant players in the European credit card market for many years? As I said, that is reliably sourced, so if you disagree then you disagree with the whole basis of Wikipedia. It is very difficult to assume good faith of people who refuse to look at the evidence. And if people utter lies about a journal being peer-reviewed or indexed by Scopus then of course I will call that out. Why should I let lies go unchallenged? Phil Bridger ( talk) 18:59, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. I wonder if perhaps we might be missing the big picture here. The EMV standard for credit cards (the kind that has the chip in it as opposed to just the magnetic stripe), for instance, was named for the companies that founded the standard: EuroPay, Mastercard, and Visa. Color me skeptical, but I doubt that the first company was just some little, non-notable company. In fact, it appears that newspapers from the 90s mention them as one of the "giants" of the industry to be mentioned in the same breath as Mastercard and Visa: [1] [2] [3]. I agree that sources are difficult to find, but I think this is more due to age than anything. bibliomaniac 1 5 21:30, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply

    • FBIS Report: Central Eurasia, Iss. 47-56 (1994), p. 79: "In 1992, after the sole Russian member of Europay International, the USSR Bank for Foreign Economic Activity, ceased its banking activity in November 1991, Europay International started to accept other Russian banks as members";
    • Belgium, Economic and Commercial Information (c. 2001), p. 147: "Europay International, based in Waterloo, Belgium, is the European banks' leading provider of personal payment products and related services".

WP:BLP of an actress, not properly referenced as passing WP:NACTOR. As always, actors and actresses are not all automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- they need to have reliable source coverage about them to verify that they pass a notability criterion, such as having multiple (meaning more than one) major (meaning not just one-off guest shots on TV shows she wasn't a regular cast member of) roles and/or winning or getting nominated for a major acting award. But there are just three sources here (four footnotes, but one of them is a repetition of one of the others), of which two — her IMDb profile and her cast bio on the self-published production website of the show she's on — are not reliable or notability-supporting sources at all. And while the other one is a real (albeit paywalled) magazine article, it appears as far as I can tell to be a Q&A interview in which she's talking about herself in the first person — which is a type of source we can use for supplementary verification of stray facts after the person has already gotten over GNG on better ones, but not a type of source that brings a GNG pass all by itself if it's the best sourcing on offer. And even if I'm wrong and it is a real article written in the third person, a person still has to have more than just one of those to pass our notability criteria.
As always, no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when she's got stronger sourcing, but just being verifiable as a working actor is not an automatic notability freebie that would exempt her from having to be referenced better than this. Bearcat ( talk) 21:38, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

Completely unsourced article about a band with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The only notability claim being attempted here is that some of their music was included in the soundtrack to a video game -- but that still isn't an instant inclusion freebie in the absence of any reliable source coverage about the band, because we still have to be able to verify that the notability claim is true, and even our article about the video game doesn't claim that any of their music is in it. Furthermore, this has been flagged as unsourced since 2008, without ever seeing a whit of improvement. Bearcat ( talk) 21:24, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

Article about a band, not making or sourcing any claim to passing WP:MUSIC. As written, this literally just states that the band exists, without even attempting to state anything about them that could even be measured against NMUSIC at all, and it cites no references whatsoever -- literally the only thing here at all is an external link to their profile on a social networking platform, which is not a notability-supporting source. As always, bands are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- they have to have reliable source coverage in media, verifying one or more accomplishments that would satisfy NMUSIC, for an article to become earned. The article was once a lot longer than this prior to 2012, when the page creator blanked most of their own past work on it -- but simply restoring the old version of the article wouldn't save it, because it was still fundamentally advertorial content still not supported by any reliable sourcing.
And for added bonus, the article has literally gone almost completely untouched since then, with just four minor new edits over the next eight years combined, which doesn't speak well of the prospect of salvaging it with new notability claims or sourcing either: if they had accomplished almost anything since 2012 that would have made them appreciably more notable, somebody would already have added it to the article.

This article is about a fake university, or at least an organization that does not seem to be an educational institution of tertiary or any other level.

This is not an officially recognised university in Uruguay, neither an officially recognized "universitary institute" (lower category of tertiary universitary institutions with lesser academic offer), and also is not a tertiary non-universitary recognized institution.

It does not seem to be a former University since I could not find any past reliable references about this. The claim of that this institution was founded in 1970 is not what the cited source said. Moreover, is worth to say that the private universitary institutions began to open in 1984 with Catholic University of Uruguay (that reopened since its closure as an organization with tertiary grades in late 19th century), and before this year of 1984 the only university in the country was the public University of the Republic (ORT Uruguay was established as an organization in 1940s, but recognized as University in 1990s).

An older version of the website https://web.archive.org/web/20150215070136/http://www.cdes.edu.uy/ states that it was at that time registered at the Civil Associations and Foundations Registry of the Ministry of Education and Culture of Uruguay, but this does not mean it was an university, furthermore it cannot be taken as a proof unless a non-affiliated source would be provided.

The older (archived) website stated it was based in "Avda Artigas 673, Juan Lacaze, Colonia, Uruguay", but the newer (archived) website "Zorrilla de San Martin 526, Rosario, Colonia, Uruguay". Both mentions religious activities led by "Daniel Esteban Odin". The current version of the website does not even say anything about activities in Uruguay at all, just links websites of its affiliated organizations in countries in Central America. The current version of the website seems to be usurped by another (unrelated) alleged organization (that could be linked to an US based organization), that in appearance is different of what it looked like and it is poorly designed with tons of plain links.

Searches in Google Maps street view did not reveal the location of the headquarters and its building, not in the claimed one in Juan Lacaze city neither the claimed one in Rosario city.

The article says "It was the only private university in the state of Colonia, Uruguay Country for 11 years until 2007.", and it is clear that who wrote the article does not know enough about Uruguay, because first level administrative division of the country are "departments", not "states". And is also worth to know that it claims to have around 10,000 students (in a city with a population of 10,085 inhabitants in 2011; the department of Colonia where the city is part of has 123,203 inhabitants), while properly established and well know private Uruguayan universities have 5,000~10,000 students and the main public university has 100,000 students.

I could research more, but I think this is enough to consider the deletion of this article. I would like to add that since Wikipedia started to spread this false information in internet a circular reference began to spread in https://academicinfluence.com/schools/28220974/College-of-the-Holy-Spirit-of-Rosario/.

Precedent: it seems to be related to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/International Handbook of Universities and the hoax spreaded by the author of the article, Taesulkim. There even mentions "Prof.+Daniel+Odin+(Ph.D.)" in a linked website. Onwa ( talk) 20:14, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

"In general, all colleges and universities are de facto notable and should be included on Wikipedia."

However, this "university" isn't accredited and is not recognized by the United States Department of Education. I can't find any independent, reliable sources on it.

Amazingly, it seems as though the majority of search results for "Westbrook University" involve articles mentioning individuals with the last name of Westbrook that happen to have University as the next word.

I don't see how it meets any general requirement of notability and doesn't even seem to meet the criteria of WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Jauerback dude?/ dude. 18:35, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

For quite some time I've had this on my watchlist and tried to prevent the inclusion of unsourced or badly sourced content in the article (which culminated in my getting an email containing a legal threat today) on the basis that it's better to have an article that shows that this "university" (and don't get me started on the way that Americans allow anyone to call themselves a university, debasing the word) is run by charlatans so readers can see it for what it is, but now after searching I see that there are no sources that bring it anywhere close to notability.

Respectfuly disagree, as this page has been in place since 2012, plenty of sufficient sources online as well as individual's other businesses are of notable mention. Also appears TEDMED was sold, so that is not an appropriate redirect while his new business involves Dr. Sanjay Gupta, with high notability. His previous colleagues have existing pages as well with no contention.

Relisting comment: As a full disclosure, I was asked to look into this close as "suspicious". I concur with that assessment. While there is a reasonable rebuttal of the nomination by one user, the proliferation of SPAs has me concerned about the overall neutrality of the voices and honestly I'd like to get some more neutral eyes to look into the article.

WP:BLP of a person notable only for participating in the renovation and reopening of two local movie theatres in a single city, not referenced well enough to get him over WP:GNG for it. Two of the seven footnotes here are blogs, and one is a community hyperlocal, which aren't sources that help to get him over GNG at all -- and while the other four sources are real daily newspapers and a book, they all just briefly namecheck Rui Pereira's existence within coverage of other things rather than being substantively about him. As always, people aren't automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because their name has been mentioned a few times in the local media -- the more localized a person's notability claim is, the better they have to be sourced before they actually clear the notability bar in an international encyclopedia, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to show more than just a few brief mentions of his name in coverage of other things.

  • Delete. People are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they have jobs: they actually have to have genuine evidence of fairly broad significance, supported by reliable source coverage about them in media (which is not the same thing as "coverage of other people that happens to also briefly mention this person's name"). But nothing stated in the article is an "inherently" notable role that would get her over WP:NPOL, and the article is not referenced even remotely close to well enough to get her over WP:GNG. And notability is WP:NOTINHERITED, either: people aren't automatically notable just because they happen to have a family relationship to a notable person — so just because her father has an article doesn't mean she's automatically entitled to have one too. Also there's a possible conflict of interest here, as the creator's username also has the subject's surname in it. Bearcat ( talk) 17:56, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

  • merge with WONB. I can't see enough notability for a standalone. Although looking at that article, there's also no references included. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ( talkcontribs) 16:59, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • delete - too soon. WONB should be merged and redirected to Ohio Northern University. Sounds like the call letters are being retired for over the air broadcasts. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 22:08, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Unnecessary - We don't need two articles for the same station. History merge (pinging Mlaffs), callsign merge, and put everything on the current callsign. Don't create two pages for the same station. You know this people. - NeutralhomerTalk • 02:34 on April 9, 2020 (UTC) • #StayAtHome
  • Redirect to WJTA This station is planned as a 24/7 simulcast of that station with no local programming whatsoever; a mere mention of its calls and basic details, followed by a link to their FMQ is more appropriate than creating an unneeded carbon copy. Appropriate mention of the station's fate can be made on the WONB page, which can be retitled WONB (1991–2020) once the transfer from ONU to Holy Family Communications is actually made. However, I will cede to Mlaff's analysis of the situation, as they might have a better suggestion. Nate ( chatter) 05:03, 9 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Comment: Since WONB has the history of the station, just going straight redirect kinda loses all that history. Sometimes, even though a station is a 24/7 simulcast, having a page with historical information of past ownerships is OK. - NeutralhomerTalk • 10:29 on April 9, 2020 (UTC) • #StayAtHome
  • In and of itself, a separate article on WOHA is a bit premature, simply because that call sign hasn't taken effect yet and that incarnation of the station is yet to launch. (The current general practice is that yet-to-launch stations generally don't get articles unless the general notability guideline is somehow met in some other way.) Since WOHA will operate on the same license as the current WONB, for all intents and purposes it isn't independently notable of WONB. Yet apparently the current WONB programming, and that identity, will continue as a webcast, that without the connection to a licensed broadcast station probably wouldn't be independently notable of Ohio Northern University. But any potential notability for the station with this broadcast license is tied in to the fact that WONB as it exists now originates programming; detached from that, WOHA will not be independently notable of its parent station WJTA! And that's all before considering the present limited-to-no sourcing. (And the article title is wrong, as the WOHA call sign request doesn't include an "-FM" suffix, so under naming conventions it would be more properly at WOHA (FM) — a questionable-notability radio station seems unlikely to displace the Singapore architectural firm that is the current primary topic at WOHA, but that's beyond the scope of AfD.) I suspect in the end some nominal merging of sourced content, and redirects as required, should happen, somewhere and somehow… but for the WOHA-FM article as it exists now, I'm leaning towards delete. -- WCQuidditch 00:16, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete this article, add information about the sale to the article currently at WONB, and move WONB to WOHA (FM), with WOHA-FM as a redirect, when the call sign change is official in FCC databases. Typically, we maintain one article per station license. A station that is currently a rebroadcaster of a larger network but was a separate station in the past typically has its own article (similar examples from my DYK record include KYFO-FM and KNKL (FM)). Raymie ( tc) 04:00, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Planned call sign, and not even the correct form of it. Delete this article, and then we can figure out how to handle splitting up the WONB article once the license assignment has closed and the change of call sign has actually taken place.

I can't find any reviews or any significant coverage of this documentary in Swedish or in English. The film exists, the sources verify that (and I think I'll try to find time to watch it as it seems interesting) but that doesn't mean it is notable. It is simply a UR documentary like many many others; I'm a fan of UR, they produce good stuff, but this fails WP:GNG as well as WP:NFILM.

Non-notable band, famous in their own lunchtime in Australia. Article was created in 2006 and then ended with the sentence "The band are currently in pre-production for their debut full length album, The Long March" which it seems is still a work in progress.

  • Delete per nom, no RS to be found; many dead links. Caro7200 ( talk) 12:50, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:BAND. The dead links aren't a problem, because they are all retrievable using the Wayback Machine, but they don't amount to much. The Perthmusic source is a primary source interview with the lead singer and is a blog. The FasterLouder source is a review of a local alternative metal festival in which Sleeper X were one of ten bands playing (and were not the headliners). The Music Vice source is an interview with the band who recorded the split EP with them, and they are mentioned in just one paragraph. The Mediasearch citation, a review of one of the EPs, is the closest thing to a decent source, but the website is hosted on Wordpress and still appears to be nothing more than a news gathering website, edited by one person and helped by a bunch of voluntary contributors. In short, this band don't appear to have received any attention outside of the Perth underground metal scene. The three EPs listed in the article appear to be the only things the band ever recorded – the Music Vice interview with Errata states that Sleeper X had split up by 2010, so there are certainly no more sources waiting to be found from the past ten years.

I still don't see how any of the newly added sources help with notability. The AllMusic source is an empty entry so it's no use whatsoever. The Music Forge states on its site that it is a "non-commercial/hobbyist site" which accepts voluntary contributions, so it isn't going to be acceptable as an RS because it's no more than a community blog. X-Press and Groove were local Perth magazines, so again no indication of notability outside of their home town. Rockus no longer exists, which suggests it was a blog. The St. George's Online website was just an online record shop. Richard3120 ( talk) 13:46, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. I can imagine a path to a standalone article about this — but it would need to be written and titled much more neutrally than this (the actual objective name of the legislation is the correct title for any article about a piece of legislation, dudes!), and include a lot more detail supported by a lot more than just four footnotes. Simply cutting and pasting the existing content verbatim from another article that already contains it, and then walking away without making any discernible effort to expand it any further, is not the path to spinning this out as a standalone topic.

  • A web search is hardly the way to look for independent reliable sources about just about anything, let alone an entity that hasn't existed for nearly 20 years. More focussed searches find sources such as doi: 10.1108/09555349910281405, doi: 10.1016/S0167-4048(99)80014-4 and very many more. Phil Bridger ( talk) 08:20, 9 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Glad you found a few sources. Did you find them by going through your local library's catalogue? ;) BTW, I'm not sure how much those sources count toward nobility. They seem questionable to me, but I'll let someone else decide that. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 00:09, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
I found them by a simple Google Scholar search, as can be done by simply clicking on the word "scholar" at the top of this discussion. More can be found by a Google Books search. What seems questionable about them? They look like cast-iron reliable sources to me: much better than the random web sites that you seem to be looking for. Phil Bridger ( talk) 06:13, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Nothing is questionable about them. Just that you said doing a web search isn't the way to find reliable sources, but that's exactly how you found them. That said, the second source is trivial coverage. WP:NCORP says product releases don't count for notability. All the other sources on Google Scholar seem to be the same and not specifically about the company. It's not like I didn't look through them to be sure when I did the AfD. Notability isn't inherited. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 17:56, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
If you just read the first couple of paragraphs of the second source you will see that the whole paper is about an initiative of Europay. And as I said, there are many more sources found by these simple searches. Just take a look rather than do web searches as you said you had. These are searches of academic papers and books, not the web. This is a very notable entity that was one of the two biggest credit card operators in Europe for many years. Just recognise that you were wrong rather than dig yourself deeper into a hole. Phil Bridger ( talk) 18:52, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep as it seems to easily pass GNG and pretty clearly at least fits in the realm of WP:CORPDEPTH with a straightforward google search. Have some time this morning to put those on the page, just filtering out the ones that aren't significant enough to really help with notability. 67.243.20.177 ( talk) 14:05, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
Not that I don't appreciate your effort, but all the sources you added are trivial coverage and don't establish notability according to WP:NCORP. Generally speaking, sources about product releases and mergers don't work. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 18:00, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete References for the most part are about MasterCard buying Europay and they are simply regurgitation of press releases.

    Phil Bridger, Dude you can't be serious. Those aren't "academic papers". The first is some non-notable, not peer reviewed journal, that by their own site description ANYONE can write for. The second was written by an employee of Europay. If you want to reply or contribute to the AfD discussion in a meaningful manner, please don't try to pass off unreliable and primary articles as "academic papers". Sheesh. Sulfurboy ( talk) 06:48, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    Now you are the one not being serious. Where on Earth do you get the idea that the European Business Review, published by Emerald Publishing, is not peer-reviewed? Yes, anyone can submit a paper, as with any academic journal, but, by their own site description, it will only be published if it passes peer review. Phil Bridger ( talk) 06:58, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    If that journal was even marginally worth its salt it'd be indexed in JCR or Scopus. It's not. Fail. At least you gave up on trying to push that second "academic paper" that was written by the company. Sulfurboy ( talk) 07:29, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    It is indexed by Scopus, where it is rated 10th out of 81 journals in the category "Business, Management and Accounting (miscellaneous)". First you lied about it not being peer-reviewed and now you are lying about it not being indexed by Scopus. Please stop. And I stand by the "very many more" that I said in my first post to this discussion. Phil Bridger ( talk) 10:25, 15 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - both sources that Phil Bridger has identified were papers written by Europay employees. The second has already been identified as such, the first was written by “Marc Dutrieux (Senior Manager, Smart Card Development at Europay International.)” Cardiffbear88 ( talk) 18:35, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • This is just getting ridiculous. The subject was one of the two credit card processors that dominated the European market until it merged with Mastercard, rather than representing it as it had done before, in 2002. That fact is sourced in the article. This is one of the most clear-cut notable articles that I have ever seen at AfD. I despair for the future of Wikipedia if people can actually support deletion of this article. OK, I didn't go out of my way to check the credentials of the authors of the articles I linked above, but they were just two of the hundreds of reliable sources that can be found simply by clicking the searches spoon-fed by the nomination process. Phil Bridger ( talk) 18:45, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • What do you disagree with? That this was one of the two dominant players in the European credit card market for many years? As I said, that is reliably sourced, so if you disagree then you disagree with the whole basis of Wikipedia. It is very difficult to assume good faith of people who refuse to look at the evidence. And if people utter lies about a journal being peer-reviewed or indexed by Scopus then of course I will call that out. Why should I let lies go unchallenged? Phil Bridger ( talk) 18:59, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. I wonder if perhaps we might be missing the big picture here. The EMV standard for credit cards (the kind that has the chip in it as opposed to just the magnetic stripe), for instance, was named for the companies that founded the standard: EuroPay, Mastercard, and Visa. Color me skeptical, but I doubt that the first company was just some little, non-notable company. In fact, it appears that newspapers from the 90s mention them as one of the "giants" of the industry to be mentioned in the same breath as Mastercard and Visa: [1] [2] [3]. I agree that sources are difficult to find, but I think this is more due to age than anything. bibliomaniac 1 5 21:30, 16 April 2020 (UTC) reply

    • Belgium, Economic and Commercial Information (c. 2001), p. 147: "Europay International, based in Waterloo, Belgium, is the European banks' leading provider of personal payment products and related services".

WP:BLP of an actress, not properly referenced as passing WP:NACTOR. As always, actors and actresses are not all automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- they need to have reliable source coverage about them to verify that they pass a notability criterion, such as having multiple (meaning more than one) major (meaning not just one-off guest shots on TV shows she wasn't a regular cast member of) roles and/or winning or getting nominated for a major acting award. But there are just three sources here (four footnotes, but one of them is a repetition of one of the others), of which two — her IMDb profile and her cast bio on the self-published production website of the show she's on — are not reliable or notability-supporting sources at all. And while the other one is a real (albeit paywalled) magazine article, it appears as far as I can tell to be a Q&A interview in which she's talking about herself in the first person — which is a type of source we can use for supplementary verification of stray facts after the person has already gotten over GNG on better ones, but not a type of source that brings a GNG pass all by itself if it's the best sourcing on offer. And even if I'm wrong and it is a real article written in the third person, a person still has to have more than just one of those to pass our notability criteria.
As always, no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when she's got stronger sourcing, but just being verifiable as a working actor is not an automatic notability freebie that would exempt her from having to be referenced better than this. Bearcat ( talk) 21:38, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

Completely unsourced article about a band with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The only notability claim being attempted here is that some of their music was included in the soundtrack to a video game -- but that still isn't an instant inclusion freebie in the absence of any reliable source coverage about the band, because we still have to be able to verify that the notability claim is true, and even our article about the video game doesn't claim that any of their music is in it.

Article about a band, not making or sourcing any claim to passing WP:MUSIC. As written, this literally just states that the band exists, without even attempting to state anything about them that could even be measured against NMUSIC at all, and it cites no references whatsoever -- literally the only thing here at all is an external link to their profile on a social networking platform, which is not a notability-supporting source. As always, bands are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- they have to have reliable source coverage in media, verifying one or more accomplishments that would satisfy NMUSIC, for an article to become earned. The article was once a lot longer than this prior to 2012, when the page creator blanked most of their own past work on it -- but simply restoring the old version of the article wouldn't save it, because it was still fundamentally advertorial content still not supported by any reliable sourcing.
And for added bonus, the article has literally gone almost completely untouched since then, with just four minor new edits over the next eight years combined, which doesn't speak well of the prospect of salvaging it with new notability claims or sourcing either: if they had accomplished almost anything since 2012 that would have made them appreciably more notable, somebody would already have added it to the article.

This article is about a fake university, or at least an organization that does not seem to be an educational institution of tertiary or any other level.

This is not an officially recognised university in Uruguay, neither an officially recognized "universitary institute" (lower category of tertiary universitary institutions with lesser academic offer), and also is not a tertiary non-universitary recognized institution.

It does not seem to be a former University since I could not find any past reliable references about this. The claim of that this institution was founded in 1970 is not what the cited source said. Moreover, is worth to say that the private universitary institutions began to open in 1984 with Catholic University of Uruguay (that reopened since its closure as an organization with tertiary grades in late 19th century), and before this year of 1984 the only university in the country was the public University of the Republic (ORT Uruguay was established as an organization in 1940s, but recognized as University in 1990s).

An older version of the website https://web.archive.org/web/20150215070136/http://www.cdes.edu.uy/ states that it was at that time registered at the Civil Associations and Foundations Registry of the Ministry of Education and Culture of Uruguay, but this does not mean it was an university, furthermore it cannot be taken as a proof unless a non-affiliated source would be provided.

The older (archived) website stated it was based in "Avda Artigas 673, Juan Lacaze, Colonia, Uruguay", but the newer (archived) website "Zorrilla de San Martin 526, Rosario, Colonia, Uruguay". Both mentions religious activities led by "Daniel Esteban Odin". The current version of the website does not even say anything about activities in Uruguay at all, just links websites of its affiliated organizations in countries in Central America. The current version of the website seems to be usurped by another (unrelated) alleged organization (that could be linked to an US based organization), that in appearance is different of what it looked like and it is poorly designed with tons of plain links.

Searches in Google Maps street view did not reveal the location of the headquarters and its building, not in the claimed one in Juan Lacaze city neither the claimed one in Rosario city.

The article says "It was the only private university in the state of Colonia, Uruguay Country for 11 years until 2007.", and it is clear that who wrote the article does not know enough about Uruguay, because first level administrative division of the country are "departments", not "states". And is also worth to know that it claims to have around 10,000 students (in a city with a population of 10,085 inhabitants in 2011; the department of Colonia where the city is part of has 123,203 inhabitants), while properly established and well know private Uruguayan universities have 5,000~10,000 students and the main public university has 100,000 students.

I could research more, but I think this is enough to consider the deletion of this article. I would like to add that since Wikipedia started to spread this false information in internet a circular reference began to spread in https://academicinfluence.com/schools/28220974/College-of-the-Holy-Spirit-of-Rosario/.

Precedent: it seems to be related to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/International Handbook of Universities and the hoax spreaded by the author of the article, Taesulkim. There even mentions "Prof.+Daniel+Odin+(Ph.D.)" in a linked website. Onwa ( talk) 20:14, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

"In general, all colleges and universities are de facto notable and should be included on Wikipedia."

However, this "university" isn't accredited and is not recognized by the United States Department of Education. I can't find any independent, reliable sources on it.

Amazingly, it seems as though the majority of search results for "Westbrook University" involve articles mentioning individuals with the last name of Westbrook that happen to have University as the next word.

Respectfuly disagree, as this page has been in place since 2012, plenty of sufficient sources online as well as individual's other businesses are of notable mention. Also appears TEDMED was sold, so that is not an appropriate redirect while his new business involves Dr. Sanjay Gupta, with high notability.

WP:BLP of a person notable only for participating in the renovation and reopening of two local movie theatres in a single city, not referenced well enough to get him over WP:GNG for it. Two of the seven footnotes here are blogs, and one is a community hyperlocal, which aren't sources that help to get him over GNG at all -- and while the other four sources are real daily newspapers and a book, they all just briefly namecheck Rui Pereira's existence within coverage of other things rather than being substantively about him. As always, people aren't automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because their name has been mentioned a few times in the local media -- the more localized a person's notability claim is, the better they have to be sourced before they actually clear the notability bar in an international encyclopedia, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to show more than just a few brief mentions of his name in coverage of other things.

  • Delete. People are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they have jobs: they actually have to have genuine evidence of fairly broad significance, supported by reliable source coverage about them in media (which is not the same thing as "coverage of other people that happens to also briefly mention this person's name"). But nothing stated in the article is an "inherently" notable role that would get her over WP:NPOL, and the article is not referenced even remotely close to well enough to get her over WP:GNG. And notability is WP:NOTINHERITED, either: people aren't automatically notable just because they happen to have a family relationship to a notable person — so just because her father has an article doesn't mean she's automatically entitled to have one too. Also there's a possible conflict of interest here, as the creator's username also has the subject's surname in it. Bearcat ( talk) 17:56, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Unnecessary - We don't need two articles for the same station. History merge (pinging Mlaffs), callsign merge, and put everything on the current callsign. Don't create two pages for the same station. You know this people. - NeutralhomerTalk • 02:34 on April 9, 2020 (UTC) • #StayAtHome
  • Redirect to WJTA This station is planned as a 24/7 simulcast of that station with no local programming whatsoever; a mere mention of its calls and basic details, followed by a link to their FMQ is more appropriate than creating an unneeded carbon copy. Appropriate mention of the station's fate can be made on the WONB page, which can be retitled WONB (1991–2020) once the transfer from ONU to Holy Family Communications is actually made. However, I will cede to Mlaff's analysis of the situation, as they might have a better suggestion. Nate ( chatter) 05:03, 9 April 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Comment: Since WONB has the history of the station, just going straight redirect kinda loses all that history. Sometimes, even though a station is a 24/7 simulcast, having a page with historical information of past ownerships is OK. - NeutralhomerTalk • 10:29 on April 9, 2020 (UTC) • #StayAtHome
  • In and of itself, a separate article on WOHA is a bit premature, simply because that call sign hasn't taken effect yet and that incarnation of the station is yet to launch. (The current general practice is that yet-to-launch stations generally don't get articles unless the general notability guideline is somehow met in some other way.) Since WOHA will operate on the same license as the current WONB, for all intents and purposes it isn't independently notable of WONB. Yet apparently the current WONB programming, and that identity, will continue as a webcast, that without the connection to a licensed broadcast station probably wouldn't be independently notable of Ohio Northern University. But any potential notability for the station with this broadcast license is tied in to the fact that WONB as it exists now originates programming; detached from that, WOHA will not be independently notable of its parent station WJTA! And that's all before considering the present limited-to-no sourcing. (And the article title is wrong, as the WOHA call sign request doesn't include an "-FM" suffix, so under naming conventions it would be more properly at WOHA (FM) — a questionable-notability radio station seems unlikely to displace the Singapore architectural firm that is the current primary topic at WOHA, but that's beyond the scope of AfD.) I suspect in the end some nominal merging of sourced content, and redirects as required, should happen, somewhere and somehow… but for the WOHA-FM article as it exists now, I'm leaning towards delete. -- WCQuidditch 00:16, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete this article, add information about the sale to the article currently at WONB, and move WONB to WOHA (FM), with WOHA-FM as a redirect, when the call sign change is official in FCC databases. Typically, we maintain one article per station license. A station that is currently a rebroadcaster of a larger network but was a separate station in the past typically has its own article (similar examples from my DYK record include KYFO-FM and KNKL (FM)). Raymie ( tc) 04:00, 10 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Planned call sign, and not even the correct form of it. Delete this article, and then we can figure out how to handle splitting up the WONB article once the license assignment has closed and the change of call sign has actually taken place.

I can't find any reviews or any significant coverage of this documentary in Swedish or in English.

It is simply a UR documentary like many many others; I'm a fan of UR, they produce good stuff, but this fails WP:GNG as well as WP:NFILM.

  • Delete per nom, no RS to be found; many dead links. Caro7200 ( talk) 12:50, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:BAND. The dead links aren't a problem, because they are all retrievable using the Wayback Machine, but they don't amount to much. The Perthmusic source is a primary source interview with the lead singer and is a blog. The FasterLouder source is a review of a local alternative metal festival in which Sleeper X were one of ten bands playing (and were not the headliners). The Music Vice source is an interview with the band who recorded the split EP with them, and they are mentioned in just one paragraph. The Mediasearch citation, a review of one of the EPs, is the closest thing to a decent source, but the website is hosted on Wordpress and still appears to be nothing more than a news gathering website, edited by one person and helped by a bunch of voluntary contributors. In short, this band don't appear to have received any attention outside of the Perth underground metal scene. The three EPs listed in the article appear to be the only things the band ever recorded – the Music Vice interview with Errata states that Sleeper X had split up by 2010, so there are certainly no more sources waiting to be found from the past ten years.

I still don't see how any of the newly added sources help with notability. The AllMusic source is an empty entry so it's no use whatsoever. The Music Forge states on its site that it is a "non-commercial/hobbyist site" which accepts voluntary contributions, so it isn't going to be acceptable as an RS because it's no more than a community blog. X-Press and Groove were local Perth magazines, so again no indication of notability outside of their home town. Rockus no longer exists, which suggests it was a blog.

A non notable actor, article inappropriately using only IMDB as a source. Research shows that some of the article’s credits weren’t even credited roles, and most were minor appearances.

Does not appear to meet WP:NCORP. The article was originally created by a copywriter for the company, and has changed little in the intervening years. The sources provided are passing mentions and listings only, and a search for more has only provided press releases (presumably produced by the article's author) and a single interview with the company's director.

  • Delete It's a Ctrl+C/V of the same section in Education in Quebec#Abolishment of the school boards, suggesting this is some kind of WP:CFORK that really needs to be rewritten in a much more neutral manner. Nate ( chatter) 09:43, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Per above. Material already exists in the other article, there’s no reason for a separate article at all, let alone the current offering. Neiltonks ( talk) 22:30, 8 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete, it's notable information but it belongs as a section in Education in Quebec, where it already exists word-for-word, lo and behold. PK T(alk) 14:24, 9 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. I can imagine a path to a standalone article about this — but it would need to be written and titled much more neutrally than this (the actual objective name of the legislation is the correct title for any article about a piece of legislation, dudes!), and include a lot more detail supported by a lot more than just four footnotes. Simply cutting and pasting the existing content verbatim from another article that already contains it, and then walking away without making any discernible effort to expand it any further, is not the path to spinning this out as a standalone topic.
